Question: Two pipes A and B can fill a tank in 15 min and 20 min respectively. Both the pipes are opened together but after 4 min, pipe A is turned off. What is the total time required to fill the tank?
Options:
A)14 min 80 sec
B)14 min 48 sec
C)14 min 42 sec
D)14 min 40 sec
E)14 min 43 sec
Rationale: Part filled in 4 minutes = 4(1/15 + 1/20) = 7/15

Question: At a certain restaurant, the average (arithmetic mean) number of customers served for the past x days was 80. If the restaurant serves 120 customers today, raising the average to 90 customers per day, what is the value of x?
Options:
A)2
B)3
C)9
D)15
E)30
Rationale: WITHOUTusing the formula, we can see that today the restaurant served 30 customers above the average. The total amount ABOVE the average must equal total amount BELOW the average. This additional 30 customers must offset the “deficit” below the average of 90 created on the x days the restaurant served only 80 customers per day.
30/10 = 3 days.Choice (A).
WITHthe formula, we can set up the following:
90 = (80x + 120)/(x + 1)
90x + 90 = 80x + 120
10x = 30
x = 3Answer Choice (B)

Question: Buses leave town B at 3 pm and every 10 hours after that. Buses leave town C at 4pm and every 15 hours after that. If the buses follow this schedule beginning on a Monday, what is the earliest day F on which the buses leave at the same time.
Options:
A)F=Tuesday
B)Wednesday
C)Thursday
D)Sunday
E)F=The busses will never leave at the same time
Rationale: The answer is E.
I think the best way to do it is to look at the times on a 24 hour clock. Town B busses start at 15:00, and Town C start at 16:00. If you think about it that way, then for Town B you'd add 10 hours each time, and the number will always end in a 5. Town C you'd add 15 hours each time, and the numbers would always end in a 1 or 6. So you can see they'd never coincide.
Alternatively, you could see that if they left at the same time, they'd coincide every 30 hours, but since C is one hour ahead of B, every 30 hours C will still be one hour ahead of B.E

Question: The probability that a computer company will get a computer hardware contract is 3/4 and the probability that it will not get a software contract is 3/5. If the probability of getting at least one contract is 5/6, what is the probability that it will get both the contracts?
Options:
A)7/30
B)11/40
C)17/50
D)19/60
E)33/80
Rationale: Let, A ≡ event of getting hardware contract
B ≡ event of getting software contract
AB ≡ event of getting both hardware and software contract.
P(A) = 3/4, P(~B) =5/9
=> P(B) = 1- (3/5) = 2/5.
A and B are not mutually exclusive events but independent events. So,
P(at least one of A and B ) = P(A) + P(B) - P(AB).
=> 5/6 = (3/4) + (2/5) - P(AB).
=> P(AB) = 19/60.
Hence, the required probability is 19/60.
The answer is D.

Options:
A)3^7
B)3^8
C)3^14
D)3^28
E)3^30
Rationale: We have the sum of 9 terms. Now, if all terms were equal to the largest term 2*3^7 we would have: sum=9*(2*3^7)=2*3^9=~3^10, so the actual sum is less than 3^10 and more than 3^7 (option A) as the last term is already more than that. So the answer is clearly B.
Answer: B.

Question: The average age of a class of 32 students is 16 yrs. if the teacher's age is also included, the average increases by one year. Find the age of the teacher?
Options:
A)30 Years
B)49 Years
C)51 Years
D)55 Years
E)57 Years
Rationale: Total age of students is 32X16 = 512 Years
Total age inclusive of teacher = 33X (16+1) = 561
So, Teacher's age is 561-512 = 49 Yrs
There is a shortcut for these type of problems
Teacher's age is 16+(33X1) = 49 Years

Question: A can finish a work in 20 days, B in 15 days and C in 12 days. B and C start the work but are forced to leave after 2 days. The remaining work was done by A in :
Options:
A)10
B)11
C)12
D)13
E)14
Rationale: (B+C)’s one day’s work = 1/15 + 1/12 = 3/20
Work done by B and C in 2 days = 3* 2/20 = 3/10
Remaining work = 1- 3/10 = 7/10
1/20 work is done by A in 1 day.
So, 7/10 work is done by A in 20 * 7/10 = 14 days

Question: On the planet Oz, there are 8 days in a week- sunday to saturday and another day called Oz day.There are 36 hours in a day and each hours has 90 minutes while each minute has 60 seconds.As on the earth, the hour hand covers the dial twice everyday. Find the approximate angle between the hands of a clock on Oz when the time is 12:40am.
Options:
A)> 111 degrees
B)> 251 degrees
C)> 71 degrees
D)> 89 degrees
E)> 99 degrees
Rationale: As, we have 36 hour in a day. So, the dial has 18 hours(36/2=18) to cover daily twice. Now a dial has 360*. So, in one hour hand moves 360/18=20*.
So, for 12 hour hand moves 12x20=240*.
Now for minutes, hour hand moves 20/90
for 40 minutes it moves 20/90x40=8.88*
So for 12:40 hour hand moves 240+8.88=248.88*.
Now, minute hand moves 90 minutes to complete one hour.
for one minute it moves 360/90=4*
for 40 minutes it moves 4x40=160*
So, the angle between hour hand and minute hand is 248.88-160=88.88
The ans is 89*

Options:
A)3
B)2
C)4
D)1
E)0
Rationale: Since 653xy is divisible by 5 as well as 2.
So y =0
Now 653x0 must be divisible by 8
So 3x0 must be 8
This happens when x=2
Hence, x+y=2+0 =2

Answer: B
Question: All the water in container A which was filled to its brim was poured into two containers B and C. The quantity of water in container B was 62.5% less than the capacity of container A. If 148 liters was now transferred from C to B, then both the containers would have equal quantities of water. What was the initial quantity of water in container A?
Options:
A)1188 liters.
B)1194 liters.
C)1104 liters.
D)1184 liters.
E)1189 liters.
Rationale: Explanation:
B has 62.5% or (5/8) of the water in A. Therefore, let the quantity of water in container A(initially) be 8k.
Quantity of water in B = 8k - 5k = 3k.
Quantity of water in container C = 8k - 3k = 5k
Container: A B C
Quantity of water: 8k 3k 5k
It is given that if 148 liters was transferred from container C to container B, then both the containers would have equal quantities of water.
5k - 148 = 3k + 148 => 2k = 296 => k = 148
The initial quantity of water in A = 8k = 8 * 148 = 1184 liters.
