Explanation :
Answer: C) 25 Explanation: a+b=5 ...(1) and 3a+2b=20 ...(2) Multiplying (1) by 2 and subtracting from (2), we get : a=10. Putting a=10 in (1), we get : b=-5 Therefore, (3a+b) = 3 x 10+(-5)=30-5=25.

Answer : 1. "4 days"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 4 days Explanation: Given that 6 men and 8 boys can do a piece of work in 10 days 26 men and 48 boys can do the same in 2 days As the work done is equal, 10(6M + 8B) = 2(26M + 48B) 60M + 80B = 52M + 96B => M = 2B => B = M/2 ……(1) Now Put (1) in 15M + 20B => 15M + 10M = 25M Now, 6M + 8B in 10 days => (6M + 4M) 10 = 100M Then D(25M) = 100M => D = 4 days.

Answer : 2. "5/36"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 5/36 Explanation: The two events mentioned are independent. The first roll of the die is independent of the second roll. Therefore the probabilities can be directly multiplied. P(getting first 4) = 1/6 P(no second 6) = 5/6 Therefore P(getting first 4 and no second 6) = 1/6 x 5/6 = 5/36
