There are 5 packages. The weight of the 1st package is 500 kg and the weight of the 2nd package is 50% higher than the weight of the 3rd package whose weight is 45% higher than the 1st package weight. The fourth package at 360 kgs is 60% lighter than the fifth package. Find the average weight of all the five packages.

Explanation:

We have the weight of the first package = 500kg.

Weight of third package = 500 + 45% of 500 kg

= 500 + 45/100 × 500

= 500 + 225

= 725

Weight of second package = 725kg + 50% of 725

= 725 + 725 × 50/100

= 725 + 362.5

= 1087.5

Weight of fourth package = 360kg

We are given that weight of fourth package =40%of weight of 5 th package

Hence 360 = 40/100 × weight of fifth package

Weight of fifth package = 360 × 100/40

= 900 ks

Total weight of all packages = 500 + 725 + 1087.5 + 360 + 900

= 3572.5

Average weight = 3572.5/5

= 714.5 kgs

4. Rs. 600 are divided among A, B, C so that Rs. 40 more than 2/5 th of A’s share, Rs. 20 more than 2/7 th of B’s share and Rs. 10 more than 9/17 th of C’s may all be equal. What is A’s share (in Rupees)?

Explanation:

Let A, B and C denote A’s, B’s and C’s shares respectively.

A + B + C = 600

Given that,

A × (2/5) + 40 = B × (2/7) + 20 = C × (9/17) + 10

Consider,

A × (2/5) + 40 = B × (2/7) + 20

⇒ B = A × (7/5) + 70

Now consider,

A × (2/5) + 40 = C × (9/17) + 10

⇒ C = A × (34/45) + (170/3)

∵A + B + C = 600

⇒ A + A × (7/5) + 70 + A × (34/45) + (170/3) = 600

⇒ A × (1 + 7/5 + 34/45) = 1420/3

⇒ A × (142/45) = 1420/3

⇒ A = Rs.150

36 people {a1, a2, …, a36} meet and shake hands in a circular fashion. In other words, there are totally 36 handshakes involving the pairs, {a1, a2}, {a2, a3},.…, {a35, a36}, {a36, a1}. Then the size of the smallest set of people such that the rest have shaken hands with at least one person in the set is

Explanation:
Let us take person a2 from the set. Then we have a1 and a3 have shaken hands with a2

But not a4 has shaken hands with a2 so we take a5 in the set thus a4 and a6 have shaken hands with the set but a7 has not so we take a8...thus we leave a gap of two people and select the third person in the set.
So answer is 36/3 = 12

When 2 dices are thrown together, there are a total of 36 possible outcomes.

Out of the 36 possible outcomes,

Only the following will give us favorable outcomes

(1,3) , (3,1) , (2,2) , (1,5) , (2,4) , (3,3) , (4,2) , (5,1) , (2,6) ,(3,5),(4,4) , (5,3),(6,2) and (6,6)

Hence total favorable outcomes = 14

Explanation:

Total possible outcomes = 36

Probability = Total favorable outcomes/total possible outcomes.

= 14/36
= 7/18

None of these

10.29%

Explanation:

Let quantity of solution sold be 1 litre

When the solution is sold for 297, the profit percent = 10%

Hence CP of solution = SP × 100/(100+P%)

⇒CP = 297 × 100/(100+10)

⇒CP = 270

Ratio of quantities of brand A and brand B is 3:7

Let their costs be 2c and 3c.

⇒ 0.3×2c + 0.7×3c = 270

⇒ 2.7c = 270

⇒ c = 100

Hence cost of Brand B = 3c = 300

A rectangular carpet has an area of 120 sq metres and a perimeter of 46 metres. The length of its diagonal (in metres) is:

19.16%

15 m

15 m

18.4%

17 m

17 m

50.71%

Explanation:

We know that

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (l + b)

Area of rectangle = l × b

Diagonal of rectangle = √ (l2+ b2)

Where l = length of rectangle

b = breadth of rectangle

According to the question

2 (l + b) = 46 m

⇒ l + b = 23 m ………… (1)

And

l × b = 120 m2 ………… (2)

Solving equation (1) and (2) we get

l = 15 m

b = 8 m

∴ Diagonal of rectangle = √ (152 + 82) = √ (225 +64)

= √289 = 17 m

Let the present age of purvi = x years

∴ Present age of Anil = 1.5x

Eight year hence age of purvi = x + 8 years

Eight year hence age of anil = 1.5x + 8 years

Explanation:

According to the question

⇒(1.5x+8)/x+8 = 2518

⇒ 27x + 144 = 25x + 200

⇒ 2x = 56

⇒ x =28 yrs.
