Question: A man cycling along the road noticed that every 3 minutes a bus overtakes him and every 9 minutes he meets an oncoming bus. If all buses and the cyclist move at a constant speed, what is the time interval between consecutive buses?
Options:
A)5 minutes
B)6 minutes
C)8 minutes
D)9/2 minutes
E)10 minutes
Rationale: Let's say the distance between the buses is d. We want to determine Interval=\frac{d}{b}, where b is the speed of bus.
Let the speed of cyclist be c.
Every 9 minutes a bus overtakes cyclist: \frac{d}{b-c}=9, d=9b-9c;
Every 3 minutes cyclist meets an oncoming bus: \frac{d}{b+c}=3, d=3b+3c;
d=9b-9c=3b+3c, --> b=2c, --> d=9b-9b/2=9b/2.
Interval=\frac{d}{b}=\frac{9/2b}{b}=9/2
Answer: D (9/2 minutes).

Question: Two trains are traveling on parallel tracks in the same direction. The faster train travels at 130 miles per hour, while the slower train travels at 100 miles per hour. At 2 o’clock the faster train is 30 miles behind the slower one. How far apart are the two trains at 5 o'clock?
Options:
A)60 miles
B)80 miles
C)90 miles
D)120 miles
E)400 miles
Rationale: Answer = A. 60 miles
Relational speed = 130 - 100 = 30 miles per hour
In 3 hours, difference = 30 * 3 = 90 miles
Fast train trailing 30 miles, so effective difference = 90 - 30 = 60 miles

Options:
A)(0.1)^5 + 5(0.1)^4(0.9) + 10(0.1)^3(0.9)^2
B)(0.1)^5 + 4(0.1)^4(0.9) + 6(0.1)^3(0.9)^2
C)(0.6)^5 + 3(0.6)^4(0.4) + 2(0.6)^3(0.4)^2
D)(0.6)^5 + 2(0.6)^4(0.4) + (0.6)^3(0.4)^2
E)(0.6)^5 + (0.6)^4(0.4) + (0.6)^3(0.4)^2
Rationale: Probability of Head, P(H) = 0.1
Probability of Tail, P(T) = 0.9
Tail will appear NO more than twice
i.e. favourable cases
2 Tails and 3 Heads, Probability = 5C2*(0.1)^3*(0.9)^2
1 Tail and 4 Heads, Probability = 5C1*(0.1)^4*(0.9)^2
0 Tail and 5 Heads, Probability = (0.1)^5
Required Probability = Sum of all Favourable cases = (0.1)^5 + 5(0.1)^4(0.9) + 10(0.1)^3(0.9)^2

Question: What is the positive difference between the sum of the squares of the first 8 positive integers and the sum of the prime numbers between the first square and fourth square?
Options:
A)161
B)162
C)163
D)164
E)165
Rationale: Forget conventional ways of solving math questions. In PS, IVY approach is the easiest and quickest way to find the answer.
the sum of the squares of the first 4 positive integers = 1^2 + 2^2 + 3^2 +...+8^2= 204
the sum of the prime numbers between the first square(=1) and fourth square(=16) = 2+3+5+7+11+13=41.
So the difference between 41 and 204 is 163.
So the answer is (C).

Question: A man's speed with the current is 15 km/hr and the speed of the current is 2.8 km/hr. The man's speed against the current is?
Options:
A)9.4
B)20
C)50
D)30
E)40
Rationale: Man's speed with the current = 15 km/hr
=> speed of the man + speed of the current = 15 km/hr
speed of the current is 2.8 km/hr
Hence, speed of the man = 15 - 2.8 = 12.2 km/hr
man's speed against the current = speed of the man - speed of the current
= 12.2 - 2.8 = 9.4 km/hr
Answer is A.

Question: Akash's club with a total membership of 30 has formed 3 committees, M, S and R which have 8,12, and 5 members respectively. If no member of committee M is on either of the other 2 committees, what is the greatest possible number of members in the club who are on none of the committees.
Options:
A)5
B)7
C)8
D)10
E)12
Rationale: Akash's club with a total membership of 30 has formed 3 committees Given no member of committee M is on either of the other 2 committees -- hence (M n R) and (M n S) and (M n R n S) is zero.
Hence only M is 8. Now we need to consider only S, (S n R) and R.
(M U R U S) = M + R + S - (M n R) - (M n S) - (R n S) + (M n R n S) + Neither.
30 = 8 + (12 - x) + (5 - x) + 0 + 0 + x + 0 + Neither.
22 = (12-x) + (5-x) + x + Neither.
Now the max value of x could be 5 and the min value of x could be 0.
When x is 5 (max), Neither is 10.
When x is 0 (min), Neither is 5. We need maximum no of people who do not belong to any group. Hence max value of neither is 10.
Answer 10 (D).

Question: A has to pay Rs. 220 to B after 1 year.B asks A to pay Rs. 110 in cash and defer the payment of Rs. 110 for 2 years. A agrees to it. If the rate of interest be 10% per annum, in this mode of payment :
Options:
A)There is no gain or loss to any one
B)A gains Rs. 7.34
C)A loses Rs. 7.34
D)A gains Rs. 11
E)None of these
Rationale: A has to pay = P.W. of Rs. 220 due 1 year hence = Rs.[ 220 x100/100+( 10x1)]= Rs. 200.
A actually pays = Rs. 110 + P.W. of Rs. 110 due 2 years hence
[110 + 110x 100/100+( 10x2 ) ] = Rs. 192.66.
∴ A gains = Rs. (200- 192.66)= Rs. 7.34.

Question: There were 35 students in a hostel. If the number of students increases by 7, the expenses of the mess increase by Rs. 42 per day while the average expenditure per head diminishes by Re 1. Find the original expenditure of the mess.
Options:
A)Rs. 480
B)Rs. 520
C)Rs. 420
D)Rs. 460
E)None of these
Rationale: Let d be the average daily expenditure
Original expenditure = 35 × d
New expenditure = 35 × d + 42
New average expenditure will be :
(35 × d + 42)/42 = d - 1
On solving, we get d = 12
Therefore original expenditure = 35 × 12 = 420

Question: An investor can sell her MicroTron stock for 36$ per share and her Dynaco stock for 56$ per share, If she sells 300 shares altogether, some of each stock, at an average price per share of 40$, how many shares of Dynaco stock has she sold?
Options:
A)52
B)75
C)60
D)136
E)184
Rationale: w1/w2 = (A2 - Aavg)/(Aavg - A1) = (56 - 40)/(40 - 36) = 16/4 = 4/1 = Number of MicroTron stocks/Number of Dynaco stocks
So for every 4 MicroTron stock, she sold 1 Dynaco stock.
So out of 300 total stocks, (1/5)th i.e. 300/5 = 60 must be Dynaco stock.

Question: John started driving on a highway at a constant speed of R miles per hour at 13:00. Then, 2 hours later, Tom started driving on the same highway at a constant speed of 3R/2 miles per hour at 15:00. If both drivers maintained their speed, how many miles had John driven on the highway when Tom caught up with John?
Options:
A)6R
B)7R
C)8R
D)9R
E)10R
Rationale: In 2 hours, John drove 2R miles.

Question: Jim takes a seconds to swim u meters at a constant rate from point P to point Q in a pool. Roger, who is faster than Jim, can swim the same distance in v seconds at a constant rate. If Jim leaves point P the same time that Roger leaves point Q, how many fewer meters will Jim have swum than Roger when the two swimmers pass each other?
Options:
A)c(v-u)/ (v+U)
B)c(a-b)/a+b
C)c(a+b)/a-b
D)ab(a-b)/a+b
E)ab(b-a)/a+b
Rationale: Both JimRoger are travelling at constant speedin opposite direction: and c is the distance
So, speed of Jim = c/u speed of Roger = c/v
Let say Jim travelled distance x from P where it met Roger, it means that Roger travelled (c-x) from point Q
[x would be less than (c-x) as Jim is travelling slow]
From above, time taken by Jim to travel x = xu/c....................... (1)
Also, time taken by Roger to travel (c-x) = (c-x)v/c.....................(2)
Time taken by both JimRoger is same, so (1) = (2)
xu/c = (c-x)v/c,
Solving further, x = vc/(u+v).................... (3)
We require to find how many fewer meters will Jim have swum i.e
additional distance travelled by Roger = (c - x) - x
= c-2x
Substituting value of x from (3)solving the equation further, we get Answer = c(v-u)/v+u
Answer = (A)
