(Ans). (A)
(Question). A train traveling at 72 kmph crosses a platform in 30 seconds and a man standing on the platform in 19 seconds. What is the length of the platform in meters?
Options:
(A) 220 meters
(B) 360 meters
(C) 420 meters
(D) 600 meters
(E) Cannot be determined
(CoT). Speed of the train in metres/sec = 72000/3600 = 20
Distance travelled by train to cross the platform = 30 * 20 = 600 = Length of train + Length of platform
Distance travelled by train to cross the man = 19 * 20 = 380 = Length of train
Length of platform = 600 - 380 = 220

(Ans). (A)
(Question). A, B, C together started a business. A invested Rs.6000 for 5 months B invested Rs.3600 for 6 months and C Rs.7500 for 3 months. If they get a total profit of Rs.7410. Find the share of C?
Options:
(A) 2250
(B) 3000
(C) 3018
(D) 3019
(E) 3012
(CoT). 60*5:36*6:75*3
100: 72: 75
75/247 * 7410 = 2250

(Ans). (D)
(Question). If rupee one produces rupees nine over a period of 40 years, find the rate of simple interest?
Options:
(A) 22 1/8 %
(B) 22 3/2 %
(C) 28 1/2 %
(D) 22 1/2 %
(E) 32 1/2 %
(CoT). 9 = (1*40*R)/100
R = 22 1/2 %

(Ans). (A)
(Question).
If the ratio of boys to girls in a class is B and the ratio of girls to boys is G; then 7 (B + G) is ?
Options:
(A) more than 7
(B) Less than 3
(C) More than 3
(D) Less than 1/3
(E) none of these
(CoT). Let number of boys = x
Let number of girls = y
Therefore x/y = B and y/x = G
7(B + G) = 7[(x/y) + (y/x)] = 7[(x2 + y2)/xy] > 7
