Answer : 2. "172.5 degrees"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 172.5 degrees Explanation: The minute hand angle is the easiest since an hour (i.e. 60 minutes) corresponds to the entire 360 degrees, each minute must correspond to 6 degrees. So just multiply the number of minutes in the time by 6 to get the number of degrees for the minute hand. Here 15 minutes corresponds to 15 x 6 = 90 degrees Next, you have to figure out the angle of the hour hand. Since there are 12 hours in the entire 360 degrees, each hour corresponds to 30 degrees. But unless the time is EXACTLY something o'clock, you have to write the time as a fractional number of hours rather than as hours and minutes.Here the time is 9:15 which is (9 + 15/60) = 37/4 hours. Since each hour corresponds to 30 degrees, we multiply 30 to get (37/4)(30) = 277.5 degrees. Since the hour hand is at 277.5 degrees and the minute hand is at 90 degrees, we can subtract to get the angle of separation. 277.5 - 90 = 187.5 =~ 360 - 187.5 = 172.5 degrees.

Answer : 4. "5"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 5 Explanation: By trial and error method, we get2880/3 = 960 is not a perfect square2880/4 = 720 is not a perfect square2880/5 = 576 which is perfect square of 24Hence, 5 is the least number by which 2880 must be divided in order to make it into a perfect square.

Answer : 4. "0"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 0 Explanation: As we know we have 10 letter and 10 different address and one more information given that exactly 9 letter will at the correct address....so the remaining one letter automatically reach to their correct address P(E) = favorable outcomes /total outcomesHere favorable outcomes are '0'.So probability is '0'.

Answer : 3. "4"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 4 Explanation: N = H.C.F. of (4665 - 1305), (6905 - 4665) and (6905 - 1305) = H.C.F. of 3360, 2240 and 5600 = 1120. Sum of digits in N = ( 1 + 1 + 2 + 0 ) = 4

Answer : 1. "Rs. 5000"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Rs. 5000 Explanation: Let the amount invested by saketh = RS. p Now, that of sandeep = 20,000 x 6 saketh = 12 x p Ratio of their earnings = 120000 : 12p = 6000 : (9000 - 6000) => 12000012p = 60003000 => p= Rs. 5000 Hence, the amount investe by saketh = Rs. p = Rs. 5000.
