Question: A room is 5 meters 76 centimeters in length and 4 meters 32 centimeters in Width. Find the least number of square tiles of equal size required to cover the entire floor of the room.
Options:
A)12
B)15
C)17
D)137
E)147
Rationale: Let us calculate both the length and width of the room in centimeters.
Length = 5 meters and 76 centimeters = 576 cm
width = 4 meters and 32 centimeters = 432 cm
As we want the least number of square tiles required, it means the length of each square tile should be as large as possible.Further,the length of each square tile should be a factor of both the length and width of the room.
Hence, the length of each square tile will be equal to the HCF of the length and width of the room = HCF of 576 and 432 = 144
Thus, the number of square tiles required = (576 x 432 ) / (144 x 144) = 4 x 3 = 12

Question: A Cuban cigar would cost 1 dollar less than 1.5 times a French cigar, had the French cigar cost 0.7 dollar less than it does now. An Arabian cigar costs 50 cents more than 1.5 times the Cuban cigar. The three cigars together cost 74.7 dollars. What is the price of the French cigar?
Options:
A)16.7$.
B)23$.
C)25.5$.
D)35$.
E)37.4$.
Rationale: The three cigars together cost 74.7 dollars. If each cost the same , they would have cost a little less than 25 dollars each.
From the given data we know French cigar < Cuban cigar < Arabic cigar
and each is more expensive 1.5 times. Therefore eliminate options C,D,E straightaway . Since French cigar is at least 1.5 times cheaper we know B cannot be the answer.
Therefore A is the answer

Question: Meg and Bob are among the 5 participants in a cycling race. If each participant finishes the race and no two participants finish at the same time, in how many different possible orders can the participants finish the race so that Meg finishes ahead of Bob?
Options:
A)24
B)30
C)60
D)90
E)120
Rationale: Let me redeem myself:
JXXXX => Bob can be in any X...Total 4! = 24
XJXXX => Bob can be in the last 3 Xs...Total 3! = 6. However, since the first person can change too and it cannot be Bob, it can only be 3 other people. So Total = 6*3 = 18
XXJBX => 3! = 6 total
XXJXB => 3! = 6 total
So this yields total of 12
XXXJB => 3! = 6
Ans = 24+18+12+6 = 60

Question: In a cricket team, the average of eleven players is 28 years. Out of these, the average ages of three groups of three players each are 31 years, 28 years and 30 years respectively. If in these groups, the captain and the youngest player are not included, and the captain is eleven years older than the youngest player, what is the age of the captain ?
Options:
A)33 years
B)34 years
C)35 years
D)26 years
E)37 years
Rationale: Explanation :
Let the age of youngest player be x.
Then, age of the captain = (x + 11).
=> 3*31 + 3*28 + 3*30 + x + x + 11 = 11*28.
=> 93+84+90+2x+11=308
so 2x = 30
so x = 15.
Age of the captain = (x+11)
= 26 years.

Question: which of the following inequalities indicates the set of all values of d for which the lengths W of the three sides of a triangle can be 3,4, and d?
Options:
A)0<d<1
B)0<d<5
C)0<d<7
D)1<d<5
E)1<d<7
Rationale: This question is a good way to apply one of the most basic relation between the 3 sides of a triangle. In a triangle (ANY TRIANGLE), any side MUST be greater than the positive difference of the other two sides and less than than the sum of the other 2 sides. Let the sides of a triangle be a,b,c .
Thus,
|a-b| < c < a+b
|b-c| < a < b+c
|c-a| < b < a+c
Thus, if the sides of the triangle are 3,4 and d,
4-3<d<4+3 ---> 1<d<7. Thus E is the correct answer.

Question: The average (arithmetic mean) of y numbers is x. If 15 is added to the set of numbers, then the average will be x - 5. What is the value of y in terms of x ?
Options:
A)x/6 - 6
B)x/6 - 5
C)x/7 - 5
D)x/5 - 4
E)x/5 - 6
Rationale: (A1 + A2 + .. + Ay)/y = x
(A1 + A2 + .. + Ay + 15)/(y+1) = x - 5
=> (xy + 15)/(y+1) = x - 5
=> xy + 15 = yx -5y + x - 5
=> 20 = x - 5y
=> 5y = x - 20
=> y = x/5 - 4

Question: The no. of gift pack bought by Dexter is 1 more than the price, in rupees, of each gift pack. The amount of Rs.380 which Dexter had, fell short of the required amount. What is theamount by which he might have fallen short.
Options:
A)20
B)40 rs
C)50
D)60
E)90
Rationale: Let the price of gift pack be 'aa'
Then number of packs bought =a+1=a+1
Hence total cost is a(a+1)a(a+1)
It is given that 380<a(a+1)380<a(a+1)
If a=19a=19, the total cost =19×20=380=19×20=380
Dexter would not have fallen short, If:
a=20a=20, a(a+1)=420a(a+1)=420
So he would have fallen short by Rs 40.
This is the minimum amount by which he may have fallen short.

Question: A man bought a horse and a carriage for Rs. 3000. He sold the horse at a gain of 20% and the carriage at a loss of 10%, thereby gaining 2% on the whole. Find the cost of the horse.
Options:
A)2200
B)1800
C)1200
D)1000
E)1500
Rationale: Let the C.P of the horse be Rs. X, Then, C.P of the carriage = Rs.(3000- x).
20% of x - 10% of ( 3000-x ) =2% of 3000 = 60,
x/5 - ( 3000-x )/10 = 60, 3x - 3000 = 600, 3x =3600, x = 1200.
Hence, C.P of the horse = Rs. 1200

Question: Amit, Raju and Ram agree to pay their total electricity bill in the proportion 3 : 4 : 5. Amit pays first day's bill of Rs. 50, Raju pays second day's bill of Rs. 55 and Ram pays third day's bill of Rs. 75. How much amount should Amit pay to settle the accounts?
Options:
A)Rs. 15.25
B)Rs. 17
C)Rs. 12
D)Rs. 5
E)NONE OF THE ABOVE
Rationale: EXPLANATION:
Total bill paid by Amit, Raju and Ram = ( 50 + 55 +75 ) = Rs. 180
Let amount paid by Amit, Raju and Ram be Rs. 3x, 4x and 5x respectively.
Therefore, (3x + 4x + 5x ) = 180
12x = 180
x = 15
Therefore, amount paid by,
Amit = Rs. 45
Raju = Rs. 60
Ram = Rs. 75
But actually as given in the question, Amit pays Rs. 50, Raju pays Rs. 55 and Ram pays Rs. 80. Hence, Amit pays Rs. 5 less than the actual amount to be paid. Hence he needs to pay Rs. 5 to Raju settle the amount.

Question: The price of precious stone is directly proportional to square of its weight. what will be the loss incurred if a stone weighing 28gm and costing 28,000 breaks into two pieces whose weights are in the ratio 15:13?
Options:
A)13958.58
B)13928.58
C)14000
D)13562.42
E)None of these
Rationale: Explanation :
Let price = p,weight = w.
p=k w^2 ---------eq(1) [here k is a constant taken]
As it is given dat price is directly proportional to weight
given w = 28,p = 28000
So from eq(1),k=1000/28
Now the broken pieces are 15gm nd 13gm
By putting the values of w and k in eq(1) we get
p1=8035.71(for w=15)
p2=6035.71(for w=13)
Total cost for broken pieces = (8035.71+6035.71) = 14071.42
So the loss=(28000-14071.42)
=13928.58

Question: A, B and C shared the profit in a business in the ratio 5 : 7 : 8. They had partnered for 14 months, 2 months and 7 months respectively. What was the ratio of their investments?
Options:
A)10:12:14
B)12:24:28
C)20:22:12
D)5:49:16
E)None of these
Rationale: Explanation :
Ratio in which A,B and C shared the profit = 5 : 7 : 8
Assume that the ratio of their investment = a:b:c
Then 14a : 2b : 7c = 5 : 7 : 8
Good to go, we got the equation. Now it's a matter of time to find a, b and c
14a/2b = 5/7
=> 98a = 10b
=> b = 98a/10 = 49a/5 ---(1)
14a/7c =5/8
=> 2a/c =5/8
=> 16a = 5c
=> c = 16a/5 ---(2)
a : b : c = a : 49a/5 : 16a/5 = 1 : 49/20 : 16/5 = 5 : 49 : 16. Answer : Option D

then succesful outcomes = 4 - pi (the area where x2+y2 will be greater than 1)
total outcomes = 4
therefore probability = (4-pi)/4

Question: Annika hikes at a constant rate of 12 minutes per kilometer. She has hiked 2.75 kilometers east from the start of a hiking trail when she realizes that she has to be back at the start of the trail in 51 minutes. If Annika continues east, then turns around and retraces her path to reach the start of the trail in exactly 51 minutes, for how many kilometers total did she hike east?
Options:
A)3.625
B)3
C)4.5
D)4
E)3.5
Rationale: Set up two R x T =D cases.
1. 1/12 km/ min x T = 2.75
from which T= 33 mins.
We know total journey time now is 51 +33 =84.
The rate is the same ie 1/12km/min.
set up second R x T =D case.
1/12 km/min x 84 = 7 km
Now the total journey would be halved as distance would be same in each direction. 7/2 =3.5

Question: An epidemic is reported to have broken out in Florida. The number of detected instances of a certain disease is reported to have increased by 85% in the last year. What is the lowest number of newly detected instances possible?
Options:
A) 1
B) 5
C) 11
D) 15
E) 17
Rationale: The number should be a possible factor of 85 so choices C and D are out
out of other possible choices it says that number of patients detected increased 85 %
if we take 1 for plugging in then the number obtained before increase is not a integer same is the case with 5
so correct option - E

Question: A car going at 10 miles per hour set out on an 80-mile trip at 9:00 A.M. Exactly 10 minutes later, a second car left from the same place and followed the same route. How fast, in miles per hour, was the second car going if it caught up with the first car at 10:30 A.M.?
Options:
A) 45
B) 20
C) 53
D) 55
E) 60
Rationale: Let Car A = car that starts at 9 AM
Car B = car that starts at 9:10 AM
Time for which car A travels at speed of 10 m per hour = 1.5 hours
Distance travelled by Car A = 10 *1.5 =15 miles
Since Car B catches up Car A at 10:30 , time = 80 mins = 4/3 hour
Speed of Car B = 15/(4/3) = 20 miles per hour
Answer B
Answer: B
Question: Speed of a boat in standing water is 14 kmph and the speed of the stream is 1.2 kmph. A man rows to a place at a distance of 4664 km and comes back to the starting point. The total time taken by him is:
Options:
A)784 hours
B)794 hours
C)780 hours
D)684 hours
E)884 hours
Rationale: Speed downstream = (12 + 1.2) = 13.2 kmph
Speed upstream = (12 - 1.2) = 10.8 kmph
Total time taken=4664/13.2+4664/10.8 = 353 + 431 = 784 hours

Question: Two trains 140 m and 160 m long run at the speed of 60 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively in opposite directions on parallel tracks. The time which they take to cross each other is?
Options:
A)10.9 sec
B)14.8 sec
C)10.6 sec
D)10.8 sec
E)20.8 sec
Rationale: Relative speed = 60 + 40 = 100 km/hr.
= 100 * 5/18 = 250/9 m/sec.
Distance covered in crossing each other = 140 + 160 = 300 m.
Required time = 300 * 9/250 = 54/5
= 10.8 sec.
