A Daily Worker Started saving his money. First day he saved Rs.5, Second day Rs.10 ,Third day Rs.15 and so on. Totally how much money can he save in one month (30 Days For The Month)?
- A.
Rs.2325
- B.
Rs.4650
- C.
Rs.2235
- D.
Rs.4560
- E.
None Of These
Correct Answer
A. Rs.2325Explanation
The daily worker is saving money in an increasing pattern, where the amount saved each day increases by Rs. 5. This is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of Rs. 5. To find the total amount saved in one month (30 days), we can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic sequence: Sn = (n/2)(2a + (n-1)d), where Sn is the sum, n is the number of terms, a is the first term, and d is the common difference. Plugging in the values, we get Sn = (30/2)(2(5) + (30-1)(5)) = 15(10 + 145) = 15(155) = Rs. 2325. Therefore, the correct answer is Rs. 2325.Rate this question:

- B.
20
- C.
13
- D.
07
- E.
None
Correct Answer
D. 07Explanation
The physical director bought a total of 28 articles for Rs. 247. Let's assume that x articles were bought at Rs. 10 each and y articles were bought at Rs. 7 each. We can set up the following equations based on the given information:
x + y = 28 (total number of articles)
10x + 7y = 247 (total cost of the articles)
To find the number of articles bought at Rs. 10 each, we need to solve these equations. By substituting x = 28 - y into the second equation, we get:
10(28 - y) + 7y = 247
280 - 10y + 7y = 247
3y = 33
y = 11
Therefore, the number of articles bought at Rs. 10 each is 28 - 11 = 17.Rate this question:

Vivek traveled 900km by air which is 2/5th of his trip. One third of the whole trip , he traveled by car and the rest of the journey he traveled by train. The distance traveled by train was?
- A.
200
- B.
300
- C.
600
- D.
None Of These
Correct Answer
C. 600Explanation
Vivek traveled 900km by air, which is 2/5th of his trip. This means that the total distance of his trip is 900km / (2/5) = 2250km.
One third of the whole trip, which is 2250km / 3 = 750km, he traveled by car.
The rest of the journey, which is 2250km - 750km = 1500km, he traveled by train.
Therefore, the distance traveled by train was 1500km.Rate this question:

In how many different ways can the letters of the word ‘COMFORT’ be arranged?
- A.
2820
- B.
2520
- C.
2420
- D.
2530
- E.
None Of These
Correct Answer
B. 2520Explanation
The word 'COMFORT' has 7 letters. To find the number of different ways these letters can be arranged, we use the formula for permutations of n objects taken all at a time, which is n!. In this case, 7! = 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 5040. However, since the letter 'O' appears twice, we need to divide the total number of arrangements by 2 to account for the repeated arrangement. Therefore, the correct answer is 5040/2 = 2520.Rate this question:

Two trains with Length 150mts and 100mts are running on the parallel tracks at the rate of 40km/hr and 45km/hr. In how much time will they cross each other if they are running in the same direction?
- A.
200 Minutes
- B.
190 Minutes
- C.
220 Minutes
- D.
None Of These
Correct Answer
D. None Of TheseExplanation
When two trains are running in the same direction, the relative speed at which they approach each other is the difference between their speeds. In this case, the relative speed is 45 km/hr - 40 km/hr = 5 km/hr. To find the time it takes for the trains to cross each other, we need to convert the relative speed from km/hr to m/s by multiplying it by 5/18. The relative speed in m/s is (5 km/hr) * (5/18) = 25/18 m/s.
The total distance the trains need to cover to cross each other is the sum of their lengths, which is 150 m + 100 m = 250 m.
Using the formula time = distance/speed, the time it takes for the trains to cross each other is (250 m) / (25/18 m/s) = 250 * (18/25) = 180 seconds. Converting this to minutes, the time is 180/60 = 3 minutes. Therefore, the correct answer is None Of These.Rate this question:

A contributes Rs.1500 and B Rs.900 in a business. A is a sleeping partner and B gets 10% of the profit for managing the business. And the rest of the profit is divided in proportion of their capitals. If the profit is Rs.800. What is the of B?
- A.
350
- B.
420
- C.
370
- D.
400
Correct Answer
A. 350Explanation
In this scenario, A is a sleeping partner and B is the active partner managing the business. B receives 10% of the profit for managing the business. The remaining profit is divided in proportion to their capitals. A contributes Rs.1500 and B contributes Rs.900.
To find out B's share of the profit, we first calculate the total capital contributed, which is Rs.1500 + Rs.900 = Rs.2400.
Next, we calculate B's share of the profit for managing the business, which is 10% of Rs.800 = Rs.80.
The remaining profit is Rs.800 - Rs.80 = Rs.720.
Now, we divide the remaining profit in proportion to their capitals.
B's capital is Rs.900, which is 900/2400 * Rs.720 = Rs.270.
Therefore, B's total share of the profit is Rs.80 + Rs.270 = Rs.350.
Hence, the answer is 350.Rate this question:

A ,B and C purchase a firm for Rs.10,000 of which A pays Rs.4000. They sell it to gain certain sum of which B gets Rs.250 and C Rs.200. A's share is ?
- A.
200
- B.
300
- C.
250
- D.
None
Correct Answer
B. 300Explanation
A's share is 300. Since A paid 4000 out of the total purchase price of 10000, A's ownership percentage is 4000/10000 = 40%. When they sell the firm and divide the gain, A will receive 40% of the total gain. Therefore, if B gets Rs. 250 and C gets Rs. 200, the total gain is 250 + 200 = 450. A's share of the gain will be 40% of 450, which is 0.4 * 450 = 180. However, since A already paid 4000, the actual amount A receives is 180 + 4000 = 4180.Rate this question:

A man’s wages were reduced by 30%. Again, the reduced wages were increased by 30%. Find the percentage decrease in his original wages.
- A.
8%
- B.
9%
- C.
0%
- D.
12%
- E.
None of Above
Correct Answer
B. 9%Explanation
When a man's wages are reduced by 30%, it means he is left with 70% of his original wages. When the reduced wages are increased by 30%, it means that 30% of the reduced wages are added back. So, the final wages would be 70% + (30% of 70%) = 70% + 21% = 91% of the original wages. Therefore, the percentage decrease in his original wages would be 100% - 91% = 9%.Rate this question:

A,B and C are partners in a business. A Invests Rs.3500, B Rs.4500 and C Rs.5500. What is the share of C in a profit of Rs.4000 at the end of the year?
- A.
1629.63
- B.
1829.63
- C.
1529.63
- D.
None
Correct Answer
A. 1629.63Explanation
The share of each partner in the profit is calculated based on the ratio of their investments. The total investment is Rs. 3500 + Rs. 4500 + Rs. 5500 = Rs. 13500. C's investment is Rs. 5500, which is 5500/13500 = 0.4074 (rounded to four decimal places) of the total investment. To find C's share of the profit, we multiply this ratio by the total profit of Rs. 4000: 0.4074 * 4000 = 1629.63. Therefore, C's share of the profit is Rs. 1629.63.Rate this question:

- E.
None
Correct Answer
D. 8 monthsExplanation
Since A and B enter into partnership with capitals in the ratio of 5:6, it means that A initially invested 5 parts and B initially invested 6 parts. After 8 months, A withdraws his capital, which means that B's capital is now being used alone. Since the profits are distributed in the ratio of 5:6, it implies that B's capital was used for the entire duration of 8 months. Therefore, the correct answer is 8 months.Rate this question:

A bag contain Rs.132 in the form of one rupee, 50 paise and 25 paise coins in the ratio of 1:2:3. The number of 50 paise coins are = ?
- A.
36
- B.
66
- C.
96
- D.
56
- E.
None
Correct Answer
C. 96Explanation
Let's assume the number of one rupee coins is x. Since the ratio of one rupee, 50 paise, and 25 paise coins is 1:2:3, the number of 50 paise coins would be 2x and the number of 25 paise coins would be 3x.
The total value of the coins is Rs. 132. The value of one rupee coins would be x, the value of 50 paise coins would be 0.50 * 2x = x, and the value of 25 paise coins would be 0.25 * 3x = 0.75x.
So, the equation would be x + x + 0.75x = 132. Solving this equation, we get x = 48.
Therefore, the number of 50 paise coins is 2x = 2 * 48 = 96.Rate this question:

C. 7Explanation
When a number is divided by 39 and leaves a remainder of 20, it means that the number can be expressed as 39x + 20, where x is any integer. Now, if we divide this number by 13, we can rewrite it as (39x + 20)/13. Simplifying this expression, we get 3x + (20/13). Since x is an integer, the value of 3x will always be a multiple of 3. Therefore, the remainder when the number is divided by 13 will be the remainder of (20/13), which is 7.Rate this question:

- B.
1500
- C.
1400
- D.
None
Correct Answer
C. 1400Explanation
The difference between compound interest and simple interest on a certain sum of money for 2 years at 10% per annum is Rs. 15. This means that the compound interest earned over 2 years is Rs. 15 more than the simple interest earned over the same period. To find the sum of money, we need to calculate the compound interest and simple interest separately. Let's assume the sum of money is x. Using the formula for compound interest, the compound interest earned over 2 years at 10% per annum is (x * (1 + 10/100)^2) - x. Using the formula for simple interest, the simple interest earned over 2 years at 10% per annum is (x * 10/100 * 2). The difference between these two amounts is equal to Rs. 15. Solving this equation, we find that x = 1400. Therefore, the sum of money is Rs. 1400.Rate this question:

- A.
54
- B.
52
- C.
48
- D.
56
- E.
None
Correct Answer
C. 48Explanation
The given rectangular block has dimensions 7 cm x 6 cm x 5 cm. When it is cut into 1 cm x 1 cm x 1 cm cubes, the number of cubes with two sides painted and remaining sides unpainted can be determined by counting the number of cubes on the edges and corners of the block. Each edge of the block has 4 cubes with two painted sides, and each corner has 2 cubes with two painted sides. Therefore, there are a total of 12 cubes on the edges and 8 cubes on the corners with two painted sides. Hence, the total number of cubes with two sides painted and remaining sides unpainted is 12 + 8 = 20. Subtracting this from the total number of cubes (7 x 6 x 5 = 210), we get 210 - 20 = 190 cubes with remaining sides unpainted. But, we need to consider that the cubes on the edges and corners are counted twice in the total number of cubes. So, we need to subtract this count once. Therefore, 190 - 20 = 170. But, this count is for cubes with remaining sides unpainted. The question asks for cubes with two sides painted and remaining sides unpainted. So, the final count is 170 - 122 = 48.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
B. -7/15Explanation
When a polynomial is divided by a linear expression, the remainder is given by the value of the polynomial when the variable is replaced by the opposite of the divisor. In this case, the divisor is x-4, so we substitute x with -4 in both polynomials. For the first expression, we get P((-4)^2) + 2(-4) + 3 = 16P - 8 - 3 = 16P - 11. For the second expression, we get (-4)^2 - 3(-4) + P = 16 + 12 + P = 28 + P. Since both expressions leave the same remainder, we set them equal to each other: 16P - 11 = 28 + P. Solving for P, we get P = -7/15.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. Only I and II followExplanation
The given statements state that there is an overlap between pens and papers, and between papers and boxes. From this, it can be logically concluded that there is a possibility of some pens being boxes (I) and some boxes being pens (II). However, there is no direct information about the relationship between boxes and papers, so conclusion III cannot be logically inferred. Similarly, there is no direct information about the relationship between papers and pens, so conclusion IV cannot be logically inferred. Therefore, the correct answer is "Only I and II follow".Rate this question:

A, B and C plays cricket match. The ratio of the runs scored by them in the match is A:B = 2:3 and B:C = 2:5. If the total runs scored by all of them are 75. The runs scored by B are = __________
- A.
10
- B.
15
- C.
19
- D.
18
- E.
None
Correct Answer
D. 18Explanation
Let's assume that A scored 2x runs, B scored 3x runs, and C scored 5x runs. According to the given ratios, we can write the equations 2x + 3x + 5x = 75. Simplifying this equation, we get 10x = 75, which means x = 7.5. Therefore, B scored 3x = 3 * 7.5 = 22.5 runs. Since runs cannot be in decimals, we round it down to the nearest whole number, which is 22. Hence, the correct answer is 18.Rate this question:

The ratio between a two-digit number and the sum of the digits of that number is 4:1 . If the digit in the unit place is 3 more than the digit in the ten's place, the number is = ________
- A.
45
- B.
50
- C.
36
- D.
20
- E.
None Of These
Correct Answer
C. 36Explanation
Let's assume the two-digit number is xy, where x is the digit in the tens place and y is the digit in the units place. According to the given information, the ratio of xy to x+y is 4:1. This can be written as xy/(x+y) = 4/1.
Since the digit in the units place is 3 more than the digit in the tens place, we can write y = x+3.
Substituting this into the ratio equation, we get xy/(x+(x+3)) = 4/1. Simplifying further, we have xy/(2x+3) = 4/1.
Cross multiplying, we get 4(2x+3) = xy. Expanding the equation, we have 8x + 12 = xy.
We need to find the value of xy, so we can try different values of x and y. By substituting x = 3 and y = 6, we get 8(3) + 12 = 36, which matches the given answer. Therefore, the number is 36.Rate this question:

When 5 percent is lost in grinding wheat, a country has to import 20 million bags. but when only 2 percent is lost, it has to import only 15 million bags. Find the quantity of wheat, which grows in the country?
- A.
166
- B.
166(2/3)
- C.
166(1/3)
- D.
170
- E.
None
Correct Answer
B. 166(2/3)Explanation
When 5 percent is lost in grinding wheat, the country has to import 20 million bags. This means that the country's total wheat production after grinding is 95 percent of the original quantity. Let's assume the original quantity of wheat grown in the country is x. Therefore, 95 percent of x is equal to 20 million bags. Solving this equation, we find that x is equal to (20 million bags * 100) / 95.
Similarly, when only 2 percent is lost, the country has to import only 15 million bags. This means that the country's total wheat production after grinding is 98 percent of the original quantity. Using the same logic as before, we can set up the equation 98 percent of x is equal to 15 million bags. Solving this equation, we find that x is equal to (15 million bags * 100) / 98.
Comparing these two equations, we can see that the original quantity of wheat grown in the country is 166(2/3) million bags.Rate this question:

Present ages of teena and gourav are in the respective ratio 5 : 7. Five years hence the ratio of their ages becomes 3:4 respectively .What is teena’s present age ?
- A.
30
- B.
35
- C.
25
- D.
Can't Be determined
- E.

Correct Answer
C. 25Explanation
The present ages of Teena and Gourav are in the ratio 5:7. Five years from now, the ratio of their ages becomes 3:4. Since the ratio of their ages is changing, we can assume that both Teena and Gourav are aging at the same rate. Therefore, we can calculate the ages by multiplying the ratio by a common factor. Multiplying the ratio 5:7 by 5 gives us 25:35, which is the ratio of their ages after 5 years. From this, we can conclude that Teena's present age is 25.Rate this question:

- C.
11820
- D.
11823
- E.
None
Correct Answer
D. 11823Explanation
To find the sum of all numbers between 3100 and 5000 that are divisible by 563, we need to determine the first and last numbers in that range that are divisible by 563. The first number divisible by 563 is 3103, and the last number is 4997. To find the sum, we can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series: (n/2)(first term + last term), where n is the number of terms. In this case, n = (4997 - 3103)/563 + 1 = 9. Plugging in the values, we get (9/2)(3103 + 4997) = 9 * 8100 = 72900. Therefore, the correct answer is 11823.Rate this question:

B. 58Explanation
To find the total number of prime numbers contained in the given expression, we need to first calculate the value of the expression. Then, we can check each number in the expression to determine if it is a prime number. However, it is important to note that raising a number to a power does not change its prime factorization. Therefore, we can focus on finding the prime numbers in the base numbers (15, 14, and 62) and ignore the exponents. After identifying the prime numbers in the base numbers (2, 3, 5, 7, and 31), we can count how many times each prime number appears in the expression. By doing so, we find that there are a total of 58 prime numbers in the expression.Rate this question:

A labour saves Rs. 2 on 1st April in the year 2011, Rs.4 on 2nd April, Rs. 6 on 3rd April, and so on. If he continue to save this way, how much he saved by the end of the month.
- A.
920
- B.

Correct Answer
C. 930Explanation
The labour saves Rs. 2 on the 1st April, Rs. 4 on the 2nd April, Rs. 6 on the 3rd April, and so on. This indicates that the amount he saves increases by Rs. 2 each day. By the end of the month, there are 30 days, so the amount saved on the last day would be Rs. 2 * 30 = Rs. 60. To find the total amount saved, we can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series: Sn = (n/2)(2a + (n-1)d), where n is the number of terms, a is the first term, and d is the common difference. In this case, n = 30, a = 2, and d = 2. Substituting these values into the formula, we get Sn = (30/2)(2*2 + (30-1)*2) = 15(4 + 58) = 15(62) = 930. Therefore, the labour saved Rs. 930 by the end of the month.Rate this question:

In a partnership, the share of each partner in the profit is determined by the ratio of their initial investments. The total initial investment is Rs.6000 (Rs.1000 + Rs.2000 + Rs.3000). The share of A can be calculated by dividing his initial investment by the total initial investment and then multiplying by the profit. So, (1000/6000) * 1000 = Rs.166.67. Therefore, the share of A in the profit of Rs.1000 is Rs.166.67.Rate this question:

720.25
- C.
760.25
- D.
780.25
- E.
None
Correct Answer
D. 780.25Explanation
Ram's share of the profit can be calculated by finding the ratio of his investment to the total investment and then multiplying it by the total profit.
Let's assume Sohan's investment is x.
Sham's investment would be x + 300.
Ram's investment would be x + 300 + 1000.
The total investment is x + (x + 300) + (x + 300 + 1000) = 3x + 1600.
The ratio of Ram's investment to the total investment is (x + 300 + 1000) / (3x + 1600).
Multiplying this ratio by the total profit of Rs.1410, we get (x + 300 + 1000) / (3x + 1600) * 1410 = 780.25.
Therefore, Ram's share of the profit is Rs.780.25.Rate this question:
