2. The ratio of girls to boys in a class of 60 students is 2:3. If the average age of the girls is 17 years while the average age of the boys is 19 years, find the average age of the students in the class?

Explanation

During the night the high contrast between the bright moon and the night's dark skies make theAccording to the problem,
Average age of the class = (2x17+3x19) /5
= (57+34)/5 = 91/5 = 18.2

3. If x:y = 2:3, y:z = 4:5 and z is 15 more than y, find the value of x.

Explanation

y:z = 4:5 and z is 15 more than y.
So, y will be 60 and z will be 75.
Now, x:y = 2:3 and so if y is 60, x will be 40.

Submit

4. X and Y can do a work in 12 days while Y and Z can do it in 20 days. If Y can do the work alonein 30 days, in how many days can X, Y and Z do the work together?

Explanation

Let the total work be 60 Units
X and Y : 12 days 5 units/day
Y and Z : 20 days 3 units/day
Y alone : 30 days 2 units/day
Using the above 3 relations,
X alone can do 5-2 = 3 units per day
Z alone can do 3-2 = 1 unit per day.
X,Y and Z together can do 2+3+1 = 6 units per day. Therefore, together they can do the work in 10 days.

Submit

5. If the value of A is 20% more than B, then by what percentage is 50% of B more or less than ¾ of A?

Explanation

Moon is round because of formed and collapsed under the force of their own grLet B be 100. Then A is 120.
50% of B = 50
¾ of A = 90
Hence, 50% of B less than ¾ of A by 40.
Percentage: (40/90) x 100 = 44.44%

6. Find the day of the week on 1st January 2010.

Explanation

We will have to calculate from 1st January AD.
2000 years = 0 odd days.
Next 9 years will have:
2 leap years = 4 odd days and
7 ordinary years = 7 odd days
We need to include 1st January = 1 odd day.
Total number of odd days = 4 + 7 + 1 odd days = 12 odd days = 5 odd days.
Hence, 1st January 2010 will be a Friday.

7. The present age of a mother and son is in the ratio 8:1. The difference in their ages after 3 yearswill be 4 times the age of the son. Find the ratio of their ages 3 years ago?

Explanation

Let their present age be 8x and x respectively.
After 3 years, their age will be 8x+3 and x+3 respectively.
Difference in their age = 7x.
According to the problem 7x=4(x+3)
7x=4x+12
3x=12 or, x=4
Their present age will be 32 and 4 respectively.
3 years ago, their age would have been 29 and 1 respectively.
Required ratio will be 29:1.

Submit

8. Find the last digit of the number (768)^(abc16)?

Explanation

abc16 will give a remainder of 0 when divided by 4 and so the required last digit will be same as the
last digit of 8^4 = ie the last digit will be 6.

Submit

9. The selling price of 5 items is same as the cost price of 6 items. If the percentage mark-up is 10%, find the overall profit percentage?

Explanation

It is given that CP of 6 items = SP of 5 items
Let the CP of one item be Rs. 5, then according to the given condition, SP of one item will be Rs. 6. Also, there is a 10% mark-up, which makes the SP (6+10% of 6) = 6.6. Now, Profit= (Rs. 6.6 - Rs.5)= Rs. 1.6.
Profit % = (1.6/5)x100% = 32%.

Submit

_G_G_G_
Once the girls are seated(marked by G), there are 4 places(marked by underscore_) that the boys can occupy and they can do so in 4C3 x 3! ways = 4! ways.
Total number of ways = 3! x 4! ways.
