Answer : 1. "70 kms"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 70 kms Explanation: Let the time taken by train be 't' hrs. Then, 40t = 35t + 1560 40t = 35t + 35/4 t = 7/4 hrs Therefore, Required length of the total journey d = s x t = 40 x 7/4 = 70 kms.

Answer : 2. "32"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 32 Explanation: Here the given series follows a pattern that, 22 - 0 = 4   32 - 1 = 8   42 - 2 = 14 52 - 3 = 22 62 - 4 = 32 Hence, the missing number is 32     Method 2 :: The difference between 4 and 8 is 4, the difference between 8 and 14 is 6, the difference between 14 and 22 is 8. So the next difference between 22 and the next number will be 10 since it follows (4,6,8,10 - add +2 each time) Hence, 22 + 10 = 32 is the missing number.

Q: If two cards are taken one after another without replacing from a pack of 52 cards. What is the probability for the two cards be Ace ? 1677 0

Answer : 3. "1/221"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 1/221 Explanation: Total Combination of getting a card from 52 cards = C152 Because there is no replacement, so number of cards after getting first card= 51 Now, Combination of getting an another card= C151 Total combination of getting 2 cards from 52 cards without replacement= (C152×C151)  There are total 4 Ace in stack. Combination of getting 1 Ace is = C14   Because there is no replacement, So number of cards after getting first Ace = 3 Combination of getting an another Ace = C13 Total Combination of getting 2 Ace without replacement=C14×C13 Now,Probability of getting 2 cards which are Ace =C14×C13C152×C151 = 1/221.
