Question: When positive integer x is divided by positive integer y, the remainder is 9. If x/y = 96.25, what is the value of y?
Options:
A)96
B)75
C)36
D)25
E)12
Rationale: Guys, one more simple funda.
5/2= 2.5
now .5 x2 =1 is the remainder
25/4 = 6.25
now .25x4=1 is the remainder
32/5=6.4
now.4x5 = 2 is the remainder
given x/y = 96.25 and remainder is 9
So .25 X y = 9
hence y= 36

B)40
C)41
D)75
E)43
Rationale: Solution
Start with 25 pens.
Mike gives you 22 pens: 25 + 22 = 47 pens.
Cindy doubles the number of pens you have: 47 Ã— 2 = 94 pens.
Sharon takes 19 pens from you: 94 - 19 = 75 pens.
So you have 75 at the end.

Question: On a map, 1.5 inches represent 24 miles. How many miles approximately is the distance if you measured 47 centimeters assuming that 1-inch is 2.54 centimeters?
Options:
A)174.2
B)212
C)288.1
D)296
E)282.4
Rationale: 1.5 inch = 2.54*1.5 cm.
So, 2.54*1.5 represents 24 miles.
So for 47 cm.:
47/(2.54*1.5) = x / 24 ---> x = 24*47/(4.81) = 296
Answer will be D.

Question: The rear–most end of a 66 foot truck exits a 330 foot tunnel exactly 6 seconds after the front–most end of the truck entered the tunnel. If the truck traveled the entire tunnel at a uniform speed, what is the speed of the truck in miles per hour (1 mile = 5,280 feet)?
Options:
A)225
B)90
C)45
D)37.5
E)27
Rationale: total length will be 330+66=396
time=6 secs
speed=396/6=66 feet/sec
conversion to miles per hour=66*3600/5280=45.

Answer: A
Question: A bag contains 4 white marbles and 4 black marbles. If each of 4 girls and 4 boys randomly selects and keeps a marble, what is the probability that all of the girls select the same colored marble?
Options:
A)1/35
B)1/9
C)1/10
D)1/20
E)1/30
Rationale: first, total ways to select for all boys and girls, i.e 8!/(4!*4!) = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1/4*3*2*1*4*3*2*1=70
then there are one two way girls can have all same colors, either white or black.
The number of ways in which 4 girls can select 4 white balls = 4C4 = 1
The number of ways in which 4 girls can select 4 black balls = 4C4 = 1
Therefore, total favorable outcomes/total outcomes = 2/70= 1/35

Options:
A)188 m
B)876 m
C)251 m
D)100 m
E)145 m
Rationale: Let the length of the train be x meters and its speed be y m/sec.

Question: A bag contains 12white and 18black balls. 2balls are drawn in succession. What is the probability that first is white and second is black?
Options:
A)31/145
B)36/145
C)32/145
D)36/147
E)None
Rationale: The probability that first ball is white:
=12C130C1=12C130C1
=1230=1230
=25=25
Since, the ball is not replaced; hence the number of balls left in bag is 29.
Hence, the probability the second ball is black:
=18C129C1=18C129C1
=1829=1829
Required probability,
=(25)×(1829)=(25)×(1829)
=36/145

Question: John and Mary were each paid x dollars in advance to do a certain job together. John worked on the job for 9 hours and Mary worked 2 hours less than John. If Mary gave John y dollars of her payment so that they would have received the same hourly wage, what was the dollar amount, in terms of y, that John was paid in advance?
Options:
A) 4y
B) 5y
C) 6y
D) 17y
E) 9y
Rationale: Let $x be the advance that both receive = 2x
Amount earned per hour by John and Mary = x/9 and x/8
Mary gives $y to John to make the wages earned equal
Hence John wage per hr = (x+y)10 which is now equal to Mary's wage (x-y)/8
Solve (x+y)9 = (x-y)/8
8x + 8y = 9x -9y
x = 17y

Question: The proportion of water to alcohol in Solution A is 5:4 and the proportion of water to alcohol in Solution B is 6:5. If an equal amount of each solution is mixed together, what is the concentration of alcohol in the new solution?
Options:
A)40.9%
B)41.9%
C)42.9%
D)43.9%
E)44.9%
Rationale: Let V be the total volume of the new solution.
Then a volume of V/2 was added from each solution A and B.
The amount of alcohol added to the new solution was:
(4/9)(V/2)+(5/11)(V/2)=2V/9+5V/22=89V/198.
The concentration of alcohol is 89/198=44.9%
The answer is E.

Question: A man takes 5 hours 45 min in walking to a certain place and riding back. He would have gained 2 hours by riding both ways. The time he would take to walk both ways is
Options:
A)7hours 75 mins
B)7 hours
C)8 hours
D)5 hours
E)6 hours
Rationale: Given that time taken for riding both ways will be 2 hours lesser than
the time needed for waking one way and riding back
From this, we can understand that
time needed for riding one way = time needed for waking one way - 2 hours
Given that time taken in walking one way and riding back = 5 hours 45 min
Hence The time he would take to walk both ways = 5 hours 45 min + 2 hours = 7 hours 45 min
Answer is A.

Question: Two goods trains each 850 m long are running in opposite directions on parallel tracks. Their speeds are 45 km/hr and 30 km/hr respectively. Find the time taken by the slower train to pass the driver of the faster one?
Options:
A)22 sec
B)81.6 sec
C)48 sec
D)18.3 sec
E)9.32 sec
Rationale: Relative speed = 45 + 30 = 75 km/hr.
75 * 5/18 = 125/6 m/sec.
Distance covered = 850 + 850 = 1700 m.
Required time = 1700 * 6/125 = 81.6 sec.

Question: A clock is set right at 1 p.m. If it gains one minute in an hour, then what is the true time when the clock indicates 6 p.m. in the same day?
Options:
A)55 5⁄61 minutes past 5
B)5 minutes past 6
C)5 minutes to 6
D)59 1⁄64 minutes past 5
E)None of these
Rationale: Time interval indicated by incorrect clock
= 6 p.m – 1 p.m = 5hrs.
Time gained by incorrect clock in one hour
= + 1 min. = +1⁄60 hr.
Using the formula, True time interval /Time interval in incorrect clock
= 1 /1+hour gained in 1 hour by incorrect clock
⇒ Truetimeinterval/5=1/1+1/60
⇒ True time interval = 5×60/61=4 56/61
∴ True time = 1 p.m. + 4 56/61 hrs.
= 5 p.m. + 56⁄61 hrs. = 5 p.m. + 56⁄61 × 60 min.
= 555⁄61 minutes past 5.

Options:
A)6 %
B)8 %
C)5 5/11%
D)11 %

B)x = y
C)x = y^2
D)x^2 = y^2

Question: Two sacks together contained 40 kilograms of sugar. If after 1 kilogram of sugar was taken from the first sack and poured into the second the weight of the sugar in the first sack became 60% the weight of the sugar in the second, what was the original difference in the weights of the sacks?
Options:
A)4
B)6
C)8
D)10
E)12
Rationale: Say the weight of the second sack after change is x kilograms, then the weight of the first sack after change would be 0.6x. Since the total weight of sugar in both sacks remained the same then x+0.6x=40, which gives x=25.
Now, if the weight of the second sack after change is 25 kilograms then initially it was 25−1=24 kilograms and the initial weight of the first sack was 40−24=16 kilograms, so the difference was 24−16=8 kilograms.

Question: At a certain supplier, a machine of type A costs $20,000 and a machine of type B costs $60,000. Each machine can be purchased by making a 20 percent down payment and repaying the remainder of the cost and the finance charges over a period of time. If the finance charges are equal to 40 percent of the remainder of the cost, how much less would 2 machines of type A cost than 1 machine of type B under this arrangement?
Options:
A)$10,000
B)$26,400
C)$12,000
D)$12,800
E)$13,200
Rationale: 1 machine of type B will cost: 20% down payment of 60,000 = 12,000plusremaining sum (50,000-12,000=48,000) with 40% of finance charges 48,000*1.4=67,200 --> 12,000+67,200=79,200;
2 machine of type A will cost: 20% down payment of 2*20,000 = 8,000plusremaining sum (40,000-8,000=32,000) with 40% of finance charges 32,000*1.4=44,800 --> 8,000+44,800=52,800;
Difference = 79,200 - 52,800 = 26,400.

What is the length of the plaƞorm.
Options:
A)310 meter
B)335 meter
C)345 meter
D)350 meter
E)None of these

Let the length of the plaƞorm be x meters
then
Distance=Speed
∗
Timex+300=503
∗
39=>3(x+300)=1950=>x=350 meters
