Options:
A)15 hrs
B)18 hrs
C)20 hrs

Question: A contractor undertakes to do a job within 100 days and hires 10 people to do it. After 20 days, he realizes that one fourth of the work is done so he fires 2 people. In how many more days G will the work get over?
Options:
A)60
B)70
C)G=75
D)G=80
E)100
Rationale: We can also use the concept of man-days here
100 days -->10men so the job includes 100*10=1000 man-days
After 20 days
1/4 of Job is completed so 1/4 X 1000 man-days=250 man-days Job is done
Now the Balance Job=1000-250=750 man-days worth of Job
Since 2 men are fired so B/L men=8
Therefore Total no. of days of Job=750 man-day/8 days = 375/4=94 days (approx.)
Now since this is total and Ques. is asking for additional no. of days,
So 94-20=74 days
The nearest approx. to answer is 75
Ans: C (75 days)

Question: P,Q and R together earn Rs.1620 in 9 days. P and R can earn Rs.600 in 5 days. Q and R in 7 days can earn Rs.910. How much amount does R can earn per day?
Options:
A)40
B)35
C)55
D)60
E)70
Rationale: Amount Earned by P,Q and R in 1 day = 1620/9 = 180 ---(1)
Amount Earned by P and R in 1 day = 600/5 = 120 ---(2)
Amount Earned by Q and R in 1 day = 910/7 = 130 ---(3)
(2)+(3)-(1) => Amount Earned by P , Q and 2R in 1 day
- Amount Earned by P,Q and R in 1 day = 120+130-180 = 70
=>Amount Earned by R in 1 day = 70

Options:
A)x² >- 1.
B)x² > -2.
C)x² > 0.
D)x² > 1.
E)x² > 2.
Rationale: |x| < x² implies that x is NONZERO.
Since x is nonzero, |x| > 0 and x² > 0.
Implication:
Both sides of the inequality are positive, allowing us to SQUARE the inequality.
(|x|)² < (x²)²
x² < x⁴.
Since x² > 0, we can safely DIVIDE both sides by x²:
x²/x² < x⁴/x²
1 < x²
x² > 1.

Question: a, b, c, d, and e are positive consecutive integers and a < b < c < d < e.
If the sum of a + b is one less than e, and the product of ab is one more than d, then what is the value of c?
Options:
A)3
B)4
C)5
D)6
E)7
Rationale: Since the integers are consecutive, we can write each as the previous integer +1. For example, b = a+1, and c = b+1. We can also reverse this: a+1 = b, and b+1 = c.
Since ab = d+1, we can also write this ab = e.
Since a+b = e-1, then a+b = ab-1.
Find the pair of consecutive integers whose sum is one less than its product. These numbers are 2 and 3 (sum: 5; product: 6).
Now that we know how the series starts, we can find the value of c. If the first two numbers are 2 and 3, the third number is 4 (option B).
Answer: B

E)None of these
Rationale: Explanation:
If the numbers are a, b, then ab = 17,
as 17 is a prime number, so a = 1, b = 17.
1/a2+1/b2=1/1(2)+1/11(2)
=122/121
Option B
Answer: B
Question: If x is a positive integer, which of the following must be odd?
Options:
A)x+1
B)x^2+x
C)x^2+x+3
D)x^2−1
E)3x^2−3
Rationale: A. X+1 = can be odd or even. Since O + O =E or E + O = O
B. X^2 + X = X(X+1). Since from the above derivation we already know the term X+1 can be Odd or Even, directly substitute here. X(ODD) = Even (When X is Even) or X(EVEN) = EVEN [When X is ODD]
C. Here's the answer. Since we know the term x^2 + X can always take a EVEN number, EVEN + 3 = ODD
Hence C.
Answer: C
Question: A mixture of 150 liters of wine and water contains 20% water. How much more water should be added so that water becomes 25% of the new mixture?
Options:
A)18 liters
B)17 liters
C)10 liters
D)19 liters
E)11 liters
Rationale: Explanation:
Number of liters of water in150 liters of the mixture = 20% of 150 = 20/100 * 150 = 30 liters.
P liters of water added to the mixture to make water 25% of the new mixture.
Total amount of water becomes (30 + P) and total volume of mixture is (150 + P).
(30 + P) = 25/100 * (150 + P)
120 + 4P = 150 + P => P = 10 liters.

Options:
A)26630
B)26640
C)36623
D)30613

Question: If an integer n is to be chosen at random from the integers 1 to 94, inclusive, what is the probability that n(n + 1)(n + 2) will be divisible by 8?
Options:
A)1/4
B)3/8
C)1/2
D)5/8
E)59/94
Rationale: n(n+1)(n+2) will be divisible by 8 when n is a multiple of 2 or when (n+1) is a multiple of 8.
Thus when n is even, this whole expression will be divisible by 8.
from 1 to 96, there are 47 even integers.
Now when (n+1) is multiple by 8, we have 12 such values for (n+1)
probability that n(n+1)(n+2) will be divisible by 8
= (47 + 12)/94
= 59/94
= 5/8
Ans is E
