  6. A boatman goes 2 km against the current of the stream in 1 hour and goes 1 km along the current in 10 minutes. How long will it take to go 5 km in stationary water?
    3.05 hrs.
    2.17 hrs.
    1.25 hrs.
    2.14 hrs.
    3.05 hrs.
    Option C
    Downstream =(1x 60)/10 = 6 kmph
    Rate upstream = 2 km/hr.
    Speed in still water =(6 + 2) /2= 4 kmph
    Time = 5/4 = 1.25 hrs.

     

  7. In a right angled triangle smallest side of is 13 cm less than the side of a square of perimeter 72 cm. Second largest side of the right angled triangle is 2 cm less than the length of the rectangle of area 112 cm² and breadth 8 cm. What is the largest side of the right angled triangle?
    17 cm
    10 cm
    13 cm
    12 cm
    19 cm
    Option C
    Side of square = 72/4 = 18 cm
    Smallest side of the right angled triangle = 18 – 13 = 5 cm
    Length of rectangle = 112/8 = 14 cm
    Second side of the right angled triangle = 14 – 2 = 12 cm
    Hypotenuse of the right angled triangle = √(25 + 144) = 13 cm

     

  8. 3 years ago, the average age of A, B, and C was 27 years. Also 5 years ago, the average age of B and C was 20 years. What is the present age of A?
    20
    40
    50
    80
    90
    Option B
    Sum of ages of A+B+C 3 yrs ago = 27*3 = 81
    After 3 yrs, i.e. at present their total = 81 + 3*3 = 90
    Similarly sum of present age of B&C = 20*2 +5*2 = 50
    Present age of A = 90-50 = 40

     

  9. If the difference between the simple interest and compound interests on some principal amount at 20% for 3 years is Rs. 48, then the principal amount is:
    Rs. 327
    Rs. 313
    Rs. 320
    Rs. 300
    Rs. 375
    Option E
    Sum = Difference x (100)^3
    r^2(300 + r)
    = 48 x (100)^3
    20^2 (300 + 20)
    = Rs. 375

     

  10. In a team of 6 boys and 8 girls, 5 students have to be selected. In how many ways it can be done so that at least 2 boys are included.
    1748
    1947
    1379
    1526
    1500
    Option D
    No. of ways = 6c2*5c3 + 6c3*5c2 + 6c4*5c1 + 6c5 = 1526
