Answer : 4. "700/9"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 700/9 Explanation: Let Veena's weight = 1 kg Sana's weight = 2 kg Sneha's weight = 1.4 kg Rina's weight = 1.8 kg Now,according to the given data in the question, 1.8x100 = 1.4   x = 1.4 × 1001.8 = 7009 = 77 79.

Answer : 2. "19/42"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 19/42 Explanation: A red ball can be drawn in two mutually exclusive ways  (i) Selecting bag I and then drawing a red ball from it.   (ii) Selecting bag II and then drawing a red ball from it.   Let E1, E2 and A denote the events defined as follows: E1 = selecting bag I, E2 = selecting bag II A = drawing a red ball Since one of the two bags is selected randomly, therefore  P(E1) = 1/2  and  P(E2) = 1/2 Now, PAE1 = Probability of drawing a red ball when the first bag has been selected = 4/7   PAE2  = Probability of drawing a red ball when the second bag has been selected = 2/6  Using the law of total probability, we have   P(red ball) = P(A) = PE1×PAE1+PE2×PAE2                              = 12×47+12×26=1942

Answer : 2. "1/6"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 1/6 Explanation: Total work is given by L.C.M of 72, 48, 36 Total work = 144 units Efficieny of A = 144/72 = 2 units/day Efficieny of B = 144/48 = 3 units/day Efficieny of C = 144/36 = 4 units/day   According to the given data, 2 x p/2 + 3 x p/2 + 2 x (p+6)/3 + 3 x (p+6)/3 + 4 x (p+6)/3 = 144 x (100 - 125/3) x 1/100 3p + 4.5p + 2p + 3p + 4p = 84 x 3 - 54 p = 198/16.5 p = 12 days.   Now, efficency of D = (144 x 125/3 x 1/100)/10 = 6 unit/day (C+D) in p days = (4 + 6) x 12 = 120 unit Remained part of work = (144-120)/144 = 1/6.

Answer : 2. "12.5%"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 12.5% Explanation: Let p% of a day is 3 hrs. We know that a day has 24 hrs. => p x 24/100 = 3 => p = 300/24 => p = 12.5%   Hence, 3 hrs is 12.5% of a day.

Answer : 3. "80%"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 80% Explanation: circumference of A = 2πr = 8 => so r = 4πvolume = π×4π2×10 = 160πcircumference of B = 2πr   = 10 => so r = 5πvolume = π×5π2×8 =  200πso ratio of capacities = 160/200 = 0.8 so capacity of A will be 80% of the capacity of B.
