6. How many vehicle registration plate numbers can be formed with digits 1,2,3,4,5(no digits being repeated)if it is given that registration number can have 1 to 5 digits ?

Options:  205  100  325  105

7. You can have registration plates of 5,4,3,2 or 1 digits

So, it's 5*4*3*2*1 + 5*4*3*2 + 5*4*3 +5*4 + 5

=120 + 120 + 60 + 20 +5

=> 325

8. A merchant buys 20kg of wheat at rs.30.00 per kg and 40kg wheat at rs.25.00 per kg.He mixes them and sell one third of the mixture at rs.26.00 per kg. The price at which the merchant should sell the remaining mixture so that he may earn a profit of 25% on his whole outlay is

Total cp = 20 * 30 + 40*25= 1600

Sp = 125/100 * 1600= 2000

Sp for 20kg mix = 26*20 =520

Rem sp = 2000-520 = 1480

As this sp is for 40 kg = 1480 / 40 = Rs37

What is the maximum number of rests that he can take?

A) 41 b) 42 c) 40 d) 43

Total=800m

16m per min means for 1m=800/16 =50min to climb

10m per min means for 1m=800/10=80min to climb for paul.....The total time is 2hours==120min....so, time taken for rest by paul is 120-80=40min

28. There are 10 stepping stones numbered 1 to 10.a fly jumps from 1st stone as follows: every minute it jumps to the 4th stone from where it started -that is from 1st it would go to 5th, from 5th it would go to 9th, from 9th it would go to 3rd, etc .where would the fly be at 60th minute if it starts at 1?

Answer 1

1minute=1+4=5

1 minute=1+4=5step

2 minute=5+4=9step

3 minute=9+4=3step

4 minute=3+4=7step

5 minute=7+4=1step the same process is repeated 12*5 times hence at 60th minute fly would be at 1st step

A)0.6485   b)0.6565   c)0.8645   d)none of these

Ans=c (0.8645)

Probability of no defective of x= 91/100=.91

Probability of non-defective of y= 95/100=.95

So, probability of no defective product=.91*.95=0.8645

After 8 yrs.

F+8=5/2(R+8)

2F+16=5R+16

2(3R) +16=5R+40

R=24 ROHIT

Aft further 8

Rohit == 24+8=32

Father == 24*3+8=80

80/32====5/2

38. Roy is now 4 year older than Erik and half of that amount than Lewis. If in two years Roy will be twice as old as Erick, then in two year what would be Roy age multiplied by Lewis age??

Ans is 48

Firstly two equations from 1st sentence...

Suppose Roy=x, Erik=y, Lewis=z

So x=y+4.... (1)

2nd is x=z+2... (2) (Roy is now 4 year older than Erik and half of that amount than Lewis so 4/2=2)

Also after 2 years Erik and Roy relation will b

X+2=2(y+2)... (3)

So put this into 1st equation. U will get y=2...

And then x=6, z=4(by substituting other)

Now asking multiplication after two years of Roy n Lewis is (6+2)*(4+2) =48...

So probability that name remains unchanged = 1/10 = 10%

40. In how many ways can 20 identical pencils be distributed among three girls so

That each gets at least 1 pencil?

Consider 3 girls as A, B, C THEN A+B+C=20, but each one should get at least 1 pencil so giving 1 pencil to each student, the remaining pencils are 20-3=17 now A'+B'+C''=17,

Number of non-negative integers of A', B’, C’ are (17+3-1) C (3-1)

So total Combinations are 19c2=19*9 = 171

Now put the value 1+2(1+2+......+99)

2+ 2*99(99+1)/2

=9902

44. In base 7, number is written only using digit0, 1, 6.a number 135in base 7 is 1*7^2+3*7+5=75in base10.what is sum of base7 numbers1234&6543in base 7? (A) 11101(B) 11110(C) 10111(D) 11011

Ans: b) 11110

Explanation:

Convert the number from base 7 to base 10

Base 7(1234) = base 10(466)

Base 7(6543) = base 10(2334)

Sum of 466 + 2334 = 2800

Convert to base 7

Base 10 (2800) ===> 11110

48. Apple costs L rupees per kilogram for first 30kgs and Q rupees per kilogram for each additional kilogram. If the price of 33 kilograms is 11.67and for 36kgs of Apples is 12.48 then the cost of first 10 kegs of Apples is

A) 3.50 b) 10.53 c) 1.17 d) 2.8

30L+3Q=11.67

30L+6Q=12.48

------------

3Q=.81 Q= .27

From that L=0.362 cost of 10 kg apple is 10*.362=3.6

A) ARBSEU

B) ARBESU

C) ARBSUE

D) ARBEUS

AB**** =4! = 24 ways

AE****=4! =24 ways next word is 49th so

Ans is B

50. X,Y,W,Z ARE INTEGER THE EXPRESSION X-Y-Z IS EVEN&Y-W-Z ODD IF X IS EVEN THEN WHICH OF FOLLOWING IS TRUE(a)Y MUST BE ODD(b)Y-Z MUST BE ODD(c)W MUST BE ODD(d)Z MUST BE ODD

Ans. (c) W must be ODD

X-Y-Z=even and X even no.

Hence (y-z) must be even because (even -even = even)

And y-w-z=y-z-w=odd and (y-z) is even so W must be odd because (even - odd=odd)

Hence option (c) is correct
