Answer : 3. "7/8 & 3/8"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 7/8 & 3/8 Explanation: Given 0.875 and 0.375 0.875 :: After decimal point there are 3 digits 875 Now, mutiply and divide 0.875 with 1000 0.875 x 10001000 = 8751000 Now, this can be reduced to fraction 78Therefore, 0.875 as fraction = 78 Similarly, 0.375 ::  After decimal point there are 3 digits 375 Now, mutiply and divide 0.375 with 1000 0.375 x 10001000 = 3751000Now, this can be reduced to fraction 38Therefore, 0.375 as fraction = 38

Answer : 1. "225 deg"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 225 deg Explanation: Angle of triangle = 180 × 3/12 = 45 deg Other angles of the triangle are = 60 deg, 75 deg Angle of quadrilateral = 360 - (45 + 60 + 75) = 180 deg Therefore, the four angles of the quadrilateral are 45, 60, 75 & 180 degrees. Hence, the sum of largest and smallest angle of the quadrilateral are 180 + 45 = 225 deg.

Answer : 2. "13 days"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 13 days Explanation: Ratio of times taken by P & Q = 100 : 130 = 10:13   Let Q takes x days to do the work Then, 10:13 :: 23:x => x = 23x13/10 => x = 299/10   P's 1 day's work = 1/23 Q's 1 day's work = 10/299 (P+Q)'s 1 day's work = (1/23 + 10/299) = 23/299 = 1/13 Hence, P & Q together can complete the work in 13 days.
