Answer : 4. "100 & 4"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 100 & 4 Explanation: Let the first number be x and the second number be y. Given 5% of x = (25% of y) + y => 5x/100 = 5y/4 => x = 25y ......(1) and also given that, x - y = 96 => x = 96 + y .....(2) From (1)&(2) 25y = 96 + y => 24y = 96 => y = 4 From (1) x = 96 + 4 = 100 Hence, the numbers are 100 & 4.

Answer : 3. "117"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 117 Explanation: Number of square units in 13 by 9 is given by the area it forms with length and breadth as 13 & 9 Area = 13 x 9 = 117 Hence, number of square units in 13 by 9 is 117 sq.units.
Q: A train covers a distance between station A and station B in 45 min.If the speed of the train is reduced by 5 km/hr,then the same distance is covered in 48 min.what is the distance between the stations A and B ? 2502 05b5cc70ee4d2b4197774f347

Answer : 2. "60 kms"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 60 kms Explanation: Let 'd' be the distance and 's' be the speed and 't' be the timed=sxt45 mins = 3/4 hr and 48 mins = 4/5 hrAs distance is same in both cases;s(3/4) = (s-5)(4/5)3s/4 = (4s-20)/515s = 16s-80s = 80 km.=> d = 80 x 3/4 = 60 kms.
Q: A boat takes 2 hours to travel from point A to B in still water. To find out its speed upstream, which of the following information is/are required? A. Distance between point A and B. B. Time taken to travel downstream from B to A. C. Speed of the stream of water. 2498 05b5cc69fe4d2b4197774c9f1

Answer : 4. "Any one pair of A and B, B and C or C and A is sufficient"
Explanation :
Answer: D) Any one pair of A and B, B and C or C and A is sufficient Explanation: Let distance between A & B = d kmLet speed in still water = x kmphLet speed of current = y kmph from the given data,d/x = 2 From A) we get dFrom B) we get d/x+yFrom C) we get y So, Any one pair of A and B, B and C or C and A is sufficient to give the answer i.e, the speed of upstream.
Q: If the sum of two numbers is 55 and the H.C.F. and L.C.M. of these numbers are 5 and 120 respectively, then the sum of the reciprocals of the numbers is equal to ? 2496 05b5cc728e4d2b4197774f6c8

Answer : 3. "11/120"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 11/120 Explanation: Let the numbers be a and b.We know that product of two numbers = Product of their HCF and LCMThen, a + b = 55 and ab = 5 x 120 = 600.=> The required sum = (1/a) + (1/b) = (a+b)/ab=55/600 = 11/120
Q: A number when subtracted by 1/7 th of itself gives the same value as the sum of all the angles of a triangle. What is the number? 2496 05b5cc619e4d2b4197774b700

Answer : 2. "210"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 210 Explanation: Let the required number be 'p' We know, sum of angles in a triangle are 180 deg According to given data, p - p/7 = 180 7p - p = 180 x 7 => 6p = 1260 => p = 1260/6 = 210

Answer : 2. "5 m/h"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 5 m/h Explanation: As the distance travelled is constant, the time taken is inversely proportional to speed. Let 'u' be the speed of the current and 'v' be the speed of the boat. Speed of the boat downstream = v + u & upstream = v - u => v+u/v-u = 30/20 => v/u = 5 => v = 5u => v + u = 6u = 10/20/60 miles/hr => 6u = 30 m/h => u = 5 m/h
