Question: A new tower has just been built at the Verbico military hospital; the number of beds available for patients at the hospital is now 5 times the number available before the new tower was built. Currently, 1/3 of the hospital's original beds, as well as 1/5 of the beds in the new tower, are occupied. For the purposes of renovating the hospital's original wing, all of the patients in the hospital's original beds must be transferred to beds in the new tower. If patients are neither admitted nor discharged during the transfer, what fraction of the beds in the new tower will be unoccupied once the transfer is complete?
A.11/30
B.43/60
C.17/30
D.19/30
Answer: B.43/60
Explanation: I think B - 43/60 is the correct answer.
Here goes:
Lets assume originally the number of beds = x
After the new tower, the total combined no of beds = 5x
So old = x, New = 4x
Now 1/3 of x are occupied and 1/5 of 4x are occupied which simplifies to (4/5)x
We are shifting 1/3 of x to the new ward so there will now be:
1/3 of x plus 4/5 of x occupied in the new ward. Add them up to get 17/15 of x
There are 4x beds in New Tower so ratio is:
(17/15)x / 4x = 17/60 of x
Subtract that from 60/60 of x and you get the number of un-occupied beds to total capacity of New Tower = 43/60.

Question: A man bought an article and sold it at a gain of 5 %. If he had bought it at 5% less and sold it for Re 2 less, he would have made a profit of 10%. The C.P. of the article was
A.344
B.218
C.400
D.388
Answer: C.400
Explanation: Explanation:
Let original Cost price is x
Its Selling price = (105/100) * x = 21x/20
New Cost price = (95/100) * x = 19x/20
New Selling price = (110/100 )* (19x/20 )= 209x/200
[(21x/20) - (209x/200)] = 2
=> x = 400

Question: One out of every 6000 computer chips is defective. If 2 out of every 30 defective chips have defective processors and there are 30 defective processors in the first batch, how many computer chips are there in the first batch?
A.450
B.900
C.90,000
D.2700,000
Answer: D.2700,000
Explanation: (D) Read the whole question to get the feel of what they are asking you to find. Then start with the smallest amount and work your way outwards. We are told that two out of every 30 defective chips have a defective processor. Let x be the total number of defective processors in the batch. Because we know 2 out of every 30 defective chips will have defective processors, and the total number of defective processors in the batch is 30, we can write out an equation: (2/30)x = 30. This can be simplified to (1/15)x = 30. Multiplying each side by 15, we arrive at x = 450. This tells us that there are 450 defective chips in the whole batch. Because we know that 1 out of every 1000 chips is defective, we can set up a proportion. If 1 out of every 6000 chips is defective, then 450 out of y chips would be defective, where y is the total number of chips in the batch. This can be set up as an equation as follows: 1/6000 = 450/y. Solve for y and you will get the total number of chips in the batch: 2700,000.
The answer is (D).

Question: In 1995, the Johnsons spent $800 on the family’s water bills. Anticipating that water rates would increase in 1996 by 50%, the Johnsons cut back their water usage. By how much must the Johnsons have reduced their 1996 water usage to pay exactly the same amount in 1996 as they paid in 1995?
A.33 1⁄3%
B.40%
C.50%
D.66 2⁄3%
Answer: A.33 1⁄3%
Explanation: In 1995 , water usage for Johnson's = w
and cost per unit of water = c
cw = 800
=> w=800/c -- 1
In 1996 , cost per unit of water = 1.5 c
Water usage for Johnson's so as to pay same amount as in 1995= w'
1.5c * w' = 800
=> w' = 800/1.5c
=> w' = (2/3c)*800
From 1 and 2 , we get
w' = 2/3 w
(w-w')/w = 1/3

Question: Two trains start from P and Q respectively and travel towards each other at a speed of 50 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively. By the time they meet, the first train has traveled 100 km more than the second. The distance between P and Q is?
A.900 km
B.300 km
C.700 km
D.800 km
Answer: A.900 km
Explanation: A
900 km
At the time of meeting, let the distance traveled by the second train be x km. Then, distance covered by the first train is (x + 100) km.
x/40 = (x + 100)/50
50x = 40x + 4000 => x = 400
So, distance between P and Q = (x + x + 100)km = 900 km.

Question: The positive integers p and r have exactly three prime factors in common: two 2's and one 3. If p has exactly one additional prime factor x and r has exactly one additional prime factor y such that x ≠ y , which of the following represents the least common multiple of p and r?
A.12xy
B.6xy
C.xy
D.12
Answer: A.12xy
Explanation: P and R have exactly 3 factors i.e. 2 , 2 and 3 which comes out to be 12 ;
so p and r will have 12 for sure as a factor ; ok .
now considering that both p -> x as a prime factor and r-> y as prime factor and x is not equal to y ;
LCM will be 12 * x * y
eg: -
let p and r be 12 and 12 each ; then 7 added to p and 11 added to r we get Least LCM as
12 *7* 11 ; ANSWER:A
Question: In power plant, If 36 men can do a piece of work in 25 hours, in how many hours will 15 men do it ?

Question: Sakshi invests a part of Rs. 12,000 in 12% stock at Rs. 120 and the remainder in 15% stock at Rs. 125. If his total dividend per annum is Rs. 1360, how much does he invest in 12% stock at Rs. 120?
A.Rs. 4000
B.Rs. 4500
C.Rs. 5500
D.Rs. 6000
Answer: A.Rs. 4000
Explanation: Let investment in 12% stock be Rs. x.
Then, investment in 15% stock = Rs. (12000 - x).
12/120 * x + 15/125 * (12000- x) = 1360
x/10 + 3/25(12000-x) = 1360
5x + 72000 - 6x = 1360 x 50
x = 4000.
