Answer : 4. "10"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 10 Explanation: Let Rajeev's present age be x years. Rajeev's age after 15 years = (x + 15) years. Rajeev's age 5 years back = (x - 5) years Then ATQ, x + 15 = 5 (x - 5) x + 15 = 5x - 25 => x = 10 Hence, Rajeev's present age = x = 10 years.

Answer : 1. "49.6%"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 49.6% Explanation: As these three strategies P, Q and R are independent so these will cut cost one after the other.If initial cost is Rs 100, then20% cost is cut after initializing strategy P, then cost will remain 80% = 80further 30% cost is cut after strategy Q, then cost will remain 70% of 80 = 56further 10% cost is cut after strategy R, then cost will remain 90% of 56 = 50.4 Thus final cost remains 50.4 % of the original cost. Hence net saving is 100 - 50.4 = 49.6 %.
Q: Sum of present ages of P and Q is 41. Age of P 2 year hence is equal to age of R, 1 year ago. Age of P, 4 year hence is equal to age of Q 1 year ago and ratio of present age of P and S is 3 : 4. Find the difference of age of R and S. 2784 05b5cc6aae4d2b4197774cf4c

Answer : 2. "3"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 3 Explanation: According to the given data, P + Q = 41 ......(1) R - 1 = P + 2 R = P + 3 and P + 4 = Q - 1 => Q = P + 5 ....(2) From (1)&(2) P = 18 Q = 18 + 5 = 23 R = 18 + 3 = 21 => P/S = 3/4 => S = 4/3 x 18 = 24 Required Difference = S - R = 24 - 21 = 3.

Answer : 3. "(p + 4) times"
Explanation :
Answer: C) (p + 4) times Explanation: Let the two no's be a and b;Given product of the no's is p = ab;If the each nos is increased by 2 then the new product will be (a+2)(b+2) = ab + 2a + 2b + 4= ab + 2(a+b) + 4= p + 2(a+b) + 4Hence the new product is (p+4) times greater than twice the sum of the two original numbers.
Q: The capacity of a tank is 2400 m3. A pump can be used both for filling and emptying the tank. The emptying capacity of the pump is 10 m3/minute higher than its filling capacity. And also, the pump needs 8 minutes less to empty the tank than to fill it. Find the filling capacity of the pump. 2779 05b5cc6b1e4d2b4197774d332

Answer : 4. "50 cub.m/min"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 50 cub.m/min Explanation: Let filling capacity of the pump be 'F' m3/min Then, the filling capacity of the pump will be (F + 10) m3/min From the given data, 2400F - 2400F+10= 8⇒ 2400 F+10-FF(F+10) =8⇒ F2 + 10F - 3000 = 0⇒ F = 50 m3/min
