Answer : 2. "26.166 minutes"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 26.166 minutes Explanation: Upto first 5 minutes I, J and K will fill => 5[(1/20)+(1/30)+(1/40)] = 65/120 For next 6 minutes, J and K will fill => 6[(1/30)+(1/40)] = 42/120 So tank filled upto first 11 minutes = (65/120) + (42/120) = 107/120 So remaining tank = 13/120 Now at the moment filling with C and leakage @ 1/60 per minute= (1/40) - (1/70) = 3/280.So time taken to fill remaining 13/120 tank =(13/120) /(3/280) = 91/6 minutes   Hence total time taken to completely fill the tank = 5 + 6 + 91/6 = 26.16 minutes.

Answer : 3. "2/21"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 2/21 Explanation: Given that there are three blue marbles, four red marbles, six green marbles and two yellow marbles.   Probability that both marbles are blue = ³C₂/¹⁵C₂ = (3 x 2)/(15 x 14) = 1/35 Probability that both are yellow = ²C₂/¹⁵C₂ = (2 x 1)/(15 x 14) = 1/105 Probability that one blue and other is yellow = (³C₁ x ²C₁)/¹⁵C₂ = (2 x 3 x 2)/(15 x 14) = 2/35   Required probability = 1/35 + 1/105 + 2/35 = 3/35 + 1/105 = 1/35(3 + 1/3) = 10/(3 x 35) = 2/21

Answer : 2. "Rs. 420"
Explanation :

Answer: B) Rs. 420 Explanation: As given in the question, Marked price is 25% more than the Cost price. => C.P of the article = 34 x 400 = 300  Now,  Let the original S.P of the article be Rs. P Now the new S.P = P + 16.666 +13.333300 x P  => S.P = 7P6 According to the question, 7P6 - 300 = 2P - 300 => 5P = 1800 => P = Rs. 360 Hence, the increased S.P = 360 x 7/6 = Rs. 420.
