Answer : 4. "6"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 6 Explanation: Let us assume Amount be 100 Rs and we calculate in CI First year 60% of 100 = 60 amount (100+60) is 160 Second year 60% of 160 = 96 amount (160+96) is 256 Third year 60% of 256 =153.6 amount (256+153.6) is 409.6 Here the Amount of 100 Rs is quadrapled in 3 years. One year contains 2 half years Three year has 6 half years. Therefore, It takes 6 half years.

Answer : 3. "36"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 36 Explanation: Given 4men, 12 women and 20 children work for 2 days. Workdone for 2 days by 4men, 12 women and 20 children = 4 x 26 x 12 + 12 x 28 x 18 + 20 x 218 x 10 = 12 Therefore, remaining work = 1 - 12 = 12 To complete the same work by only men in 1 day, We know that M1 x D1 = M2 x D2 Here M1 = 6 , D1 = 12 and M2 = M , D2 = 1 12 x 6 = M x 1 => M = 12 x 6 = 72 => But the remaining work = 1/2 Men required => 1/2 x 72 = 36 Only men required to Complete the remaining work in 1 day = 36.

Answer : 2. "4 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 4 kmph Explanation: Let the distance in one direction = k kms Speed in still water = 4.5 kmph Speed of river = 1.5 Hence, speed in upstream = 4.5 - 1.5 = 3 kmph Speed in downstream = 4.5 + 1.5 = 6 kmph Time taken by Rajesh to row upwards = k/3 hrs Time taken by Rajesh to row downwards = k/6 hrs Now, required Average speed =Total distanceTotal speed = 2kk3 + k6 = 2k x 186k + 3k = 4 kmph Therefore, the average speed of the whole journey = 4kmph.

Answer : 2. "72/5 days"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 72/5 days Explanation: Work done by Shyam and Rahim in 8 days = 8/32 = 1/4 Remaining work to be done by Shyam and Ram = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4 Given efficieny of Ram is half of Rahim i.e, as Rahim can do the work in 48 days, Ram can do the work in 24 days. One day work of Ram and Shyam = (1/32 - 1/48) + 1/24 = 5/96 Hence, the total work can be done by Shyam and Ram together in 96/5 days. Therefore, remaining work 3/4 can be done by them in 3/4 x 96/5 = 72/5 = 14.4 days.
