Answer : 3. "20"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 20 Explanation: Given (2a + 3b)/(5a - 3b) = 23/5 => 10a + 15b = 115a - 69b=> 105a = 84b => 5a = 4b a/b = 4/5 => a=4 & b=5=> bxa = 5x4 = 20.

Answer : 3. "5.76 kms"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 5.76 kms Explanation: Speed in still water = 6 kmph Stream speed = 1.2 kmph Down stream  = 7.2 kmph Up Stream = 4.8 kmph x/7.2 + x/4.8 = 1 x = 2.88 Total Distance  = 2.88 x 2 = 5.76 kms

Answer : 1. "Sunday"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Sunday Explanation: The year 2004 is a leap year. So, it has 2 odd days. But, Feb 2004 not included because we are calculating from March 2004 to March 2005. So it has 1 odd day only. The day on 5th March, 2005 will be 1 day beyond the day on 5th March, 2004. Given that, 5th March, 2005 is Monday. 5th March, 2004 is Sunday (1 day before to 5th March, 2005).

Q: K is 50% faster than L. If L starts at 9 A.M. and K starts at 10 A.M. L travels at a speed of 50 km/hr. If L and K are 300 kms apart, The time when they meet when they travel in opposite direction is ? 2483 0

Answer : 1. "12 pm"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 12 pm Explanation: let 't' be the time after which they met since L starts. Given K is 50% faster than L 50 t + 1.5*50(t-1) = 300 50 t +75 t = 300 + 75 t = 375 / 125 = 3 hrs past the time that L starts So they meet at (9 + 3)hrs = 12:00 noon.

Q: 80 litres of diesel is required to travel 800 km using a 800 cc engine. If the volume of diesel required to cover a distance varies directly as the capacity of the engine, then how many litres of diesel is required to travel 1000 kms using 1200 cc engine ? 2483 0

Answer : 4. "150 lit"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 150 lit Explanation: To cover a distance of 800 kms using a 800 cc engine, the amount of diesel required = 80 litres. => the amount of diesel required to cover a distance of 1000 kms = 1000 x 80/800 = 100 litres However, the vehicle uses a 1200 cc engine and it is given that the amount of diesel required varies directly as the engine capacity. i.e., for instance, if the capacity of engine doubles, the diesel requirement will double too. Therefore, with a 1200 cc engine, quantity of diesel required = 1200/800 x 100 = 150 litres.

Answer : 1. "i"
Explanation :

Answer: A) i Explanation: We know that, i2 = -1i3 = i2 x i = -1 x i = -ii4 = i2 x i2 = -1 x -1 = 1Hence, i233  =i4 x 58 + 1 = i232 x i1 = 1 x i = i

Q: The angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio of 2:4:7:5. The smallest angle of the quadrilateral is equal to the smallest angle of a triangle. One of the angles of the triangle is twice the smallest angle of the triangle. What is the second largest angle of the triangle ? 2479 0

Answer : 2. "60 degrees"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 60 degrees Explanation: Given the angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio of 2:4:7:5Let the angles of a quadrilateral are 2x, 4x, 7x, 5xBut we know that sum of the angles = 360 degrees.=> 2x + 4x + 7x + 5x = 360=> x = 20Therfore, the smallest angle of the quadrilateral = 2x = 2x20 = 40 degrees.One of the angle of the triangle = 2 x 40 = 80 degreesThe other angle is 180 - (40 + 80) = 60 degrees. Hence the second largest angle of the triangle is 60 degrees.
