6. A cube of edge 6 cm is melted and smaller cubes of edges 2 cm each are formed; how many such cubes are possible

Explanation

When a cube of edge 6 cm is melted, it can be divided into smaller cubes of edges 2 cm each. To find the number of smaller cubes possible, we need to calculate the volume of the larger cube and divide it by the volume of the smaller cube. The volume of the larger cube is (6 cm)^3 = 216 cm^3. The volume of the smaller cube is (2 cm)^3 = 8 cm^3. Dividing the volume of the larger cube by the volume of the smaller cube, we get 216 cm^3 / 8 cm^3 = 27. Therefore, 27 smaller cubes of edges 2 cm each can be formed.

8. Amit, Sumit and Puneet share an amount of Rs. 660 in the ratio of 3:4:5 what is the share of Puneet

Explanation

The ratio of Amit, Sumit, and Puneet's shares is 3:4:5. To find Puneet's share, we need to determine the fraction of the total amount that corresponds to Puneet's share. The total ratio is 3+4+5=12. To find Puneet's fraction, we divide Puneet's ratio (5) by the total ratio (12): 5/12. To find Puneet's share, we multiply this fraction by the total amount of Rs. 660: (5/12) * 660 = Rs. 275. Therefore, Puneet's share is Rs. 275.

10. A mixture contains milk and water in the ratio 5 : 1 on adding 5 litres of water, the ratio of milk to water becomes 5 : 2, the quantity of milk in the mixture is

Explanation

Let's assume the initial quantity of the mixture is 5x litres of milk and x litres of water.

According to the given information, the ratio of milk to water is 5:1.

So, 5x/(x) = 5/1

Simplifying this equation, we get 5x = 5x

Now, when 5 litres of water is added, the new quantity of water becomes x + 5 litres.

The new ratio of milk to water is given as 5:2.

So, 5x/(x + 5) = 5/2

Cross-multiplying and simplifying, we get 10x = 5x + 25

Solving this equation, we find x = 5

Therefore, the initial quantity of milk in the mixture is 5x = 5 * 5 = 25 litres.

Hence, the correct answer is 25 litres.

Submit
12. What will be Average of the First 97 Natural numbers

Explanation

The average of a set of numbers is found by dividing the sum of the numbers by the count of the numbers. In this case, the first 97 natural numbers start from 1 and go up to 97. The sum of these numbers can be found using the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series: (n/2)(first term + last term), where n is the count of terms. Plugging in the values, we get (97/2)(1 + 97) = 97(98)/2 = 4753. Dividing this sum by 97, the count of numbers, gives us an average of 49. Therefore, the correct answer is 49.

Submit
13. For a sphere of a radius 10 cm, the numerical value of surface area is what percent of the numerical value of its volume

Explanation

The surface area of a sphere is given by the formula 4πr^2, where r is the radius. The volume of a sphere is given by the formula (4/3)πr^3. Substituting the given radius of 10 cm into these formulas, we find that the surface area is 400π cm^2 and the volume is approximately 4188.79π cm^3. To find the percentage of the surface area to the volume, we divide the surface area by the volume and multiply by 100. This gives us (400π / 4188.79π) * 100 ≈ 9.55%. Therefore, the correct answer is 30%.

15. The 7th and 21th term of an AP are 6 and -22 respectively. Find the 26th term.

Explanation

In an arithmetic progression (AP), the common difference between consecutive terms remains constant. To find the 26th term, we can use the formula for the nth term of an AP: An = A1 + (n-1)d. Given that the 7th term is 6 and the 21st term is -22, we can substitute these values into the formula to find the common difference (d). Then, we can substitute the value of d into the formula to find the 26th term. The correct answer is -32.

16. The sum of two numbers is 15 and their geometric mean is 20% lower than their arithmetic mean. Find the Numbers

Explanation

The arithmetic mean of two numbers is the sum of the numbers divided by 2. In this case, the arithmetic mean is (12+3)/2 = 7.5. The geometric mean is the square root of the product of the numbers. Let the numbers be x and y. We know that x+y=15, so y=15-x. The geometric mean is then sqrt(x*(15-x)). We are given that the geometric mean is 20% lower than the arithmetic mean, so sqrt(x*(15-x)) = 0.8*7.5. Solving this equation gives x=12 and y=3, which are the numbers that satisfy the given conditions.

Submit
17. The tax on a commodity is diminished by 10% and its consumption increases by 10%. Find the effects on revenue

Explanation

When the tax on a commodity is diminished by 10%, it means that the tax rate is reduced by 10%. At the same time, the consumption of the commodity increases by 10%. These two factors have opposing effects on revenue. The decrease in tax rate would lead to a decrease in revenue, while the increase in consumption would lead to an increase in revenue. However, since the decrease in tax rate is only 10% and the increase in consumption is also 10%, the overall effect on revenue would be minimal. Therefore, the revenue would decrease by approximately 1%.

Submit
18. What will be HCF of the Polynomials x squaredminus 5 x plus 6 and x squared minus 7 x plus 10

Explanation

The given polynomials are (x-2), (x-1), (x-3), and (x-5). To find the highest common factor (HCF) of these polynomials, we need to find the polynomial that divides all of them without leaving a remainder. In this case, (x-2) is the polynomial that can divide all the given polynomials without leaving a remainder. Therefore, (x-2) is the HCF of the given polynomials.

Submit
19. A sum of money doubles itself in 5 years. In how many years will it become four times if interest conversion is compoundly

Explanation

If a sum of money doubles itself in 5 years with compound interest, it means that the interest is being added to the principal amount and earning interest as well. To become four times the original amount, it would need to double again. Since it took 5 years to double the first time, it would take another 5 years to double again. Therefore, it would take a total of 10 years for the sum of money to become four times the original amount with compound interest.

Submit
20. The three sides of a triangle are 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm respectively. Then its area will be

Explanation

The given triangle is a right triangle with sides in the ratio of 3:4:5. This is a Pythagorean triple, where the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Using the formula for the area of a triangle, which is 1/2 * base * height, we can take the sides 3 cm and 4 cm as the base and height respectively. Therefore, the area of the triangle is (1/2) * 3 cm * 4 cm = 6 cm².

Submit
21. The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 10, while when the digits are reversed the number decrease by 54. find the changed number.

The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 10. This means that the digits could be 1 and 9, 2 and 8, or 3 and 7. However, when the digits are reversed, the number decreases by 54. The only possibility that satisfies this condition is 28. When the digits are reversed, we get 82, which is 54 less than 28. Therefore, the changed number is 28.

Submit
22. The price of rice falls by 20%. How much rice can be bought now with the money that was sufficient to buy 20 kg or rice previously

Explanation

When the price of rice falls by 20%, it means that the price is now 80% of the original price. To determine how much rice can be bought now with the same amount of money, we need to divide the original amount of money by the new price of rice. Since the price is now 80% of the original price, we can buy 1.25 times the amount of rice we could buy previously. Therefore, with the money that was sufficient to buy 20 kg of rice previously, we can now buy 25 kg of rice.

Submit

This unit represents the force required to stretch or deform the surface of a liquid by one meter. Therefore, the correct answer is N/m.

Submit
24. The income of A and B are in the ratio 3 : 2 and their expenditures in the ratio 5 : 3. if each saves Rs. 1000, The income of A is

Explanation

Let the income of A be 3x and the income of B be 2x.
Similarly, let the expenditure of A be 5y and the expenditure of B be 3y.
Given that each saves Rs. 1000, we can form the equation:
3x - 5y = 1000
2x - 3y = 1000
Solving these equations, we get x = 2000 and y = 500.
Therefore, the income of A is 3x = 3 * 2000 = Rs. 6000.

26. What will be the reminder of 15X17X19 when divided by 7

Explanation

The remainder of a number when divided by 7 depends on its congruence modulo 7. In this case, we can calculate the congruence of 15, 17, and 19 modulo 7. 15 ≡ 1 (mod 7), 17 ≡ 3 (mod 7), and 19 ≡ 5 (mod 7). When we multiply these congruences, we get (1 * 3 * 5) ≡ 15 ≡ 1 (mod 7). Therefore, the remainder of 15X17X19 when divided by 7 is 1.

Submit
27. A and B are two number whose AM is 25 and GM is 7 Which of the following may be value of A

Explanation

The arithmetic mean (AM) of two numbers is the sum of the numbers divided by 2. The geometric mean (GM) of two numbers is the square root of their product. In this case, the AM is given as 25 and the GM is given as 7. To find the possible value of A, we need to find two numbers whose AM is 25 and GM is 7. One possible set of numbers is 49 and 1, as their sum is 50 (which divided by 2 gives an AM of 25) and their product is 49 (which has a square root of 7, giving a GM of 7). Therefore, 49 may be the value of A.

Submit
28. If the area of a triangle is 150 sq m and base : height is 3 : 4, find its height

Explanation

Given that the area of the triangle is 150 sq m and the ratio of the base to the height is 3:4, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle, which is (1/2) * base * height. Let the base be 3x and the height be 4x. Substituting these values into the formula, we get (1/2) * 3x * 4x = 150. Simplifying this equation, we get 6x^2 = 150. Solving for x, we find that x^2 = 25, so x = 5. Therefore, the height of the triangle is 4x = 4 * 5 = 20 m.

Submit
29. The age of Mithali and pooja is in the ratio 2 : 6 After 5 years, the ratio of their ages will become 6 : 8 , Find the average of their ages after 10 years

Explanation

The ratio of Mithali and Pooja's ages is initially 2:6, which can be simplified to 1:3. After 5 years, their ages will be x+5 and 3x+5 respectively. The new ratio is given as 6:8, which can be simplified to 3:4. Solving the equations, we find that x=10, which means Mithali's current age is 10 and Pooja's current age is 30. After 10 years, their ages will be 20 and 40 respectively. The average of their ages is (20+40)/2 = 60/2 = 12.

Submit
31. The LCM of two numbers is 12 times their HCF. The sum of HCF and LCM is 403. if one of the number is 93 what will be the other

Explanation

Let's assume the HCF of the two numbers is x. Given that the LCM is 12 times the HCF, we can write the equation LCM = 12x. The sum of the HCF and LCM is 403, so we have the equation x + 12x = 403. Simplifying this equation, we get 13x = 403. Dividing both sides by 13, we find that x = 31. Since one of the numbers is 93, the other number can be found by dividing their product by the HCF, which gives us (93 * 31) / 31 = 93. Therefore, the other number is 124.

Submit
32. The number that must be added to each of numbers 8, 21, 13 and 31 to make the ratio of first two numbers equal to the ratio of last two number

Explanation

To find the number that must be added to each of the given numbers to make the ratio of the first two numbers equal to the ratio of the last two numbers, we need to calculate the difference between the first two numbers and the last two numbers.

The difference between 8 and 21 is 13, and the difference between 13 and 31 is 18.

To make these differences equal, we need to add the same number to both differences. Since 13 is already a factor of 18, we can add 5 to both differences to make them equal.

Therefore, the number that must be added to each of the given numbers is 5.

Submit
33. If the scaler Product of two vectots is zero then they must be

Explanation

If the scalar product of two vectors is zero, it means that the angle between them is 90 degrees, making them perpendicular to each other. This is because the scalar product of two vectors is equal to the product of their magnitudes and the cosine of the angle between them. When the scalar product is zero, it implies that the cosine of the angle is zero, which only happens when the angle is 90 degrees. Therefore, the two vectors must be perpendicular to each other.

39. The ratio between two numbers is 3 : 4 and their LCM is 180. What will be the first number 

Explanation

The ratio between two numbers is 3:4, which means that for every 3 units of the first number, there are 4 units of the second number. Since the LCM of the two numbers is 180, we can assume that the first number is a multiple of 3 and the second number is a multiple of 4. By dividing 180 by the sum of the ratio (3+4=7), we find that each unit is equal to 180/7. Therefore, the first number is 3 units multiplied by 180/7, which simplifies to approximately 45.

41. A number is mistakenly divided by 5 instead of being multiplied by 5. find the percentage change in the result due to this mistake

Explanation

When a number is mistakenly divided by 5 instead of being multiplied by 5, the result will be 1/5th of the correct value. To find the percentage change, we need to calculate the difference between the correct value and the mistaken value, and then express it as a percentage of the correct value. In this case, the correct value would be 5 times the mistaken value. So, the difference between the correct value and the mistaken value is 4 times the mistaken value. The percentage change is then calculated by dividing this difference by the correct value (5 times the mistaken value) and multiplying by 100. Simplifying this expression gives us 4/5 * 100 which equals 80%. Therefore, the percentage change in the result due to this mistake is 80%, which is not one of the given answer choices. Hence, the correct answer is not available.

43. Three metal cubes with edges 6 cm, 8 cm, and 10 cm respectively are melted together and formed into a single cube. Find the side of the resulting cube

Explanation

When three metal cubes with edges 6 cm, 8 cm, and 10 cm are melted together, their volumes are combined to form the volume of the resulting cube. The volume of a cube is determined by multiplying the length of its edge by itself three times. Therefore, the volume of the resulting cube can be calculated by adding the volumes of the three smaller cubes. The volume of the cube with an edge of 6 cm is 6^3 = 216 cm^3, the volume of the cube with an edge of 8 cm is 8^3 = 512 cm^3, and the volume of the cube with an edge of 10 cm is 10^3 = 1000 cm^3. Adding these volumes gives a total volume of 1728 cm^3. To find the side length of the resulting cube, we need to find the cube root of its volume, which is approximately 12 cm. Therefore, the side of the resulting cube is 12 cm.

46. A pet shop owner sells two puppies at the same price. On one he makes a profit of 20% and on the other he suffers a loss of 20 % Find his loss or gain percent on the whole transaction

Explanation

The pet shop owner sells two puppies at the same price. On one puppy, he makes a profit of 20%. This means that he sells it for 120% of its cost price. On the other puppy, he suffers a loss of 20%, which means he sells it for 80% of its cost price. Since both puppies are sold at the same price, the overall selling price is equal to the sum of the selling prices of both puppies. Therefore, the overall selling price is 120% + 80% = 200% of the cost price. However, since the selling price is equal to the cost price in this case (no profit, no loss), the overall transaction results in a loss of 4%.

Submit
47. The speed of the train in going from Nagpur to allahabad is 100 km/hr while when coming from allahabad to nagpur, its speed is 150 km/hr What will be the average speed During the Journey

Explanation

The average speed during the journey can be calculated by taking the total distance traveled and dividing it by the total time taken. Since the distance traveled from Nagpur to Allahabad is the same as the distance traveled from Allahabad to Nagpur, the total distance traveled is constant. Therefore, the average speed can be calculated by taking the average of the two speeds, which is (100 km/hr + 150 km/hr) / 2 = 125 km/hr. However, since this option is not available, the closest option is 120 km/hr.

Explanation

Since the profits are divided in the ratio of 10:3, we can assume that the total duration of the business is divided into 13 equal parts (10 parts for Arvind and 3 parts for Naveen). Arvind invested Rs. 550, so his share is 10 parts. Naveen invested Rs. 330, so his share is 3 parts. Since their investments are in the ratio of 10:3, it means that Naveen joined when 3 parts out of the total 13 parts had already passed. 3 parts out of 13 parts is equivalent to 6 months. Therefore, Naveen joined after 6 months.

54. How many terms are in the GP 5, 20, 80, ........20480 ?

Explanation

To find the number of terms in a geometric progression (GP), we need to determine the common ratio and the first term. In this case, we can see that each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 4. The first term is 5. To find the number of terms, we can use the formula: n = log(base r) (last term / first term) + 1. Plugging in the values, we get n = log(base 4) (20480/5) + 1 = log(base 4) 4096 + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7. Therefore, there are 7 terms in the given geometric progression.

55. The market price of a table is Rs. 1200 , which is 20% above the cost price . It is sold at a discount of 10 % on the marked price. Find the profit percent .

Explanation

The cost price of the table can be found by dividing the market price by 1 plus the percentage increase, which is 1200 / (1 + 20/100) = 1000. The selling price is then found by subtracting the discount percentage from 100% and multiplying it by the market price, which is (100 - 10)% * 1200 = 1080. The profit is the difference between the selling price and the cost price, which is 1080 - 1000 = 80. Finally, the profit percent is found by dividing the profit by the cost price and multiplying it by 100, which is (80 / 1000) * 100 = 8%.

58. Two pipes A and B can fill the cistern in 4 minutes and 6 minutes. Respectvely. If these pipes are turned on alternatly for 1 minute each how long will it take for the cistern to fill

Explanation

Pipe A can fill the cistern in 4 minutes, so it can fill 1/4 of the cistern in 1 minute. Similarly, pipe B can fill 1/6 of the cistern in 1 minute. When they are turned on alternately for 1 minute each, the total amount of water filled in 2 minutes is 1/4 + 1/6 = 5/12 of the cistern.

To find out how long it will take to fill the entire cistern, we need to find the reciprocal of 5/12. The reciprocal of 5/12 is 12/5.

So, it will take 2 * 12/5 minutes to fill the cistern completely.

Converting this to minutes and seconds, we get 2 * 12/5 = 24/5 = 4 4/5 = 4 min 48 sec.

Therefore, the correct answer is 4 min 40 sec.

Explanation

If 146! is divisible by 5n, it means that there are at least n factors of 5 in the prime factorization of 146!. To find the maximum value of n, we need to determine the highest power of 5 that divides 146!. This can be done by repeatedly dividing 146 by 5 and adding the quotient to the total. By doing this, we find that the highest power of 5 that divides 146! is 35. Therefore, the maximum value of n is 35.

61. A Reduction of 10 % in the price of sugar enables a housewife to buy 6.2 kg more for Rs. 279. find the reduced price per kilogram

Explanation

A reduction of 10% in the price of sugar means that the housewife can buy 6.2 kg more for Rs. 279. This implies that the original price per kilogram of sugar was such that the housewife could buy 6.2 kg for Rs. 279 at that price. To find the reduced price per kilogram, we need to calculate the original price per kilogram.

Let the original price per kilogram be x.

So, the cost of 6.2 kg of sugar at the original price would be 6.2x.

Since there is a 10% reduction in price, the new price per kilogram would be 0.9x.

According to the given information, the new price per kilogram allows the housewife to buy 6.2 kg more for Rs. 279.

Therefore, we can set up the equation:

6.2x - 6.2(0.9x) = 279

Simplifying this equation gives:

0.28x = 279

x = 279 / 0.28

x = 997.5

Therefore, the original price per kilogram was Rs. 997.5.

Since there is a 10% reduction, the reduced price per kilogram would be 0.9 * 997.5 = Rs. 897.75.

Rounding this to the nearest rupee gives the answer as Rs. 4.5.

63. The area of sector of circle of radius 5 cm, formed by an arc of length 3.5 cms, is

Explanation

The area of a sector of a circle can be found using the formula A = (θ/360) * π * r^2, where θ is the central angle of the sector and r is the radius of the circle. In this case, the arc length is given as 3.5 cm, which is equal to the circumference of the sector. Therefore, the central angle can be found using the formula θ = (arc length / circumference) * 360. Plugging in the values, we get θ = (3.5 / (2 * π * 5)) * 360 ≈ 40.2 degrees. Now, plugging this value along with the radius into the area formula, we get A = (40.2/360) * π * 5^2 ≈ 8.75 sq-cm.

68. Two trains for patna leave Delhi at 6 AM and 6.45 AM and travel at 98 kmph and 136 kmph respectively. How many kilometers from delhi will the two trains meet

Explanation

The two trains are traveling towards each other, so their combined speed is the sum of their individual speeds. The first train travels for 45 minutes longer than the second train, so it covers a greater distance. To find the distance at which the two trains meet, we can multiply the combined speed by the time it takes for the second train to catch up with the first train. Since the second train is traveling at a faster speed, it will catch up with the first train in a shorter amount of time. Therefore, the two trains will meet after traveling a distance of 263 km from Delhi.

70. The letters of PROMISE are arranged so that no two of the vowels should come together. Find the total number of arrangements

Explanation

In order to find the total number of arrangements where no two vowels come together, we need to first determine the number of arrangements where the vowels are together. There are two vowels in the word PROMISE, which can be arranged in 2! = 2 ways. The remaining consonants can be arranged in 6! = 720 ways. Therefore, the total number of arrangements where the vowels are together is 2 x 720 = 1440. Since there are a total of 7 letters in the word PROMISE, there are 7! = 5040 total arrangements. Subtracting the arrangements where the vowels are together, we get 5040 - 1440 = 3600. Thus, the correct answer is 1440.

74. The length of a rectangle is increased by 60% by what percent would the width have to be decreased to maintain the same area

Explanation

To maintain the same area of a rectangle after increasing the length by 60%, the width would need to be decreased by a certain percentage. The correct answer is 74/2%. This can be calculated by using the formula for the area of a rectangle, which is length multiplied by width. Since the area needs to remain the same, the new length would be 1.6 times the original length. To find the new width, we can divide the original area by the new length. This gives us the original width divided by 1.6. To find the percentage decrease, we subtract the new width from the original width, divide by the original width, and multiply by 100. The calculation comes out to be 74/2%.
