उत्तर : 1. "Rs. 13 and Rs. 17"
व्याख्या :
Answer: A) Rs. 13 and Rs. 17 Explanation: If fares for cities L and M from K are x and y respectively, then 2x + 3y = 77 or 6x + 9y = 231...(1)3x + 2y = 73 or 6x + 4y = 146...(2) subtracting 2 from 1, we get 5y = 85 y = Rs. 17 => x = Rs. 13

प्र: Consider 5 independent Bernoulli’s trials each with probability of success p. If the probability of at least one failure is greater than or equal to 31/32 , then p lies in the interval ? 1269 0

उत्तर : 3. "[1, 1/2]"
व्याख्या :
Answer: C) [1, 1/2] Explanation: Probability of atleast one failure= 1 - no failure > 31/32= 1 - P5 > 31/32= P5<1/32= p < 1/2Also p > 0Hence p lies in [0,1/2].

प्र: A man saves Rs. 200 in each of the first three months of his service. In each of the subsequent months his saving increases by Rs. 40 more than the saving of immediately previous month. His total saving from the start of service will be Rs. 11040 after ? 2137 0

प्र: Three friends had dinner at a restaurant. When the bill was received, Akshitha paid 2/3 as much as Veena paid and Veena paid 1/2 as much as Lasya paid. What fraction of the bill did Veena pay ? 1651 0

उत्तर : 3. "3/11"
व्याख्या :
Answer: C) 3/11 Explanation: Let Veena paid x,so Akshitha paid 2x/3 , and Lasya paid 2x,So total bill paid is given byx+(2x/3) +2x = 1, we geti.e. x = 3/11

प्र: A bird lover was asked how many birds he had in the basket. He replied that there were all parrots but six, all pigeons but six, and all koel but six. How many birds he had in the basket in all ? 3060 0

उत्तर : 3. "9"
व्याख्या :
Answer: C) 9 Explanation: There were all parrots but six means that six birds were not parrots but only pigeons and koels. Similarly, number of parrots + number of koels = 6 and number of parrots + number of pigeons = 6. This is possible when there are 3 parrots, 3 pigeons and 3 koels i.e. 9 birds in all.

प्र: An intelligent boy is doing a jigsaw with 275 pieces. Each day that he fits pieces together there are fewer pieces left, and it is reasonable to assume that he fits more pieces each day because the number left to sort out diminishes progressively. Hence he is able to fit an extra piece as each day goes by. On the first day he fits 20 pieces. How many days does it take for him to complete the puzzle ? 2371 0

उत्तर : 1. "11 days"
व्याख्या :
Answer: A) 11 days Explanation: Let 'n' number of days it take to complete. we know that sum of n number= n/2[2a+(n-1)d]where a=20,d=1;n/2[2x20+(n-1)1]=275n[n+39]=550n2 + 39n - 550 = 0 n2+ 50n - 11n - 550 = 0(n-11) (n-50) = 0n-11 = 0;n = 11(Days).
