Answers :

1). Answer: c)

All the given 4 options are divisible by both 2 and 5.

Divisibility rule of 4= last 2 digits of the number should be divisible by 4

Divisibility rule of 3 = Sum of the digits in a number is divisible by 3

24 = 8×3 = 2 x 4 x 3

15 = 5 x 3

2). Answer: b)

Let the present age of father and son be f and s respectively.

F=3(S+10) +2 = 3s + 32

F=3S+32 —— (i)

F+10=7S+2 ——- (ii)

Substituting f=3S+32 in (ii)

3S+32+10=7S+2

40 = 4S

S = 10 —- (iii)

Substitute (iii) in (i)

F = 3(10) + 32 = 62

3). Answer: c)

Answer: 5A=4B

A/B=4/5

A2/B2 = 16/25

4). Answer: b)

Let the number of days present and absent be x and y respectively.

X + y = 50 —– (i)

2x – y = 70 —— (ii)

On solving (i) and (ii)

3x = 120

X = 40 —– (iii)

Substitute (iii) in (i) y = 10

5). Answer: d)

C = k/√n

C1 = 16, n1 = 81

C2=? n2=256

C1√n1=k

C2√n2=k

16√81=C2√256

C2=9

6). Answer: b)

Let the price at the end of the second year be Rs.100

The price at the end of the third year will be Rs.120 and fourth year will be 144

24 ——- 144

100 —— ?

?= 100×144/24=600

7). Answer: a)

If AD is the bisector of CAB, then AC/AB = CD/DB

CD/DB =12/8 = 3/2

8). Answer: c)

15 men can do a job in 3 days.

One man can do this job in 45 days.

Let the total work to be done is 45 units.

Efficiency of a man = 1 unit/day

At the end of 9 days Total unit of work completed is= 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9=45

9). Answer: b)

M1D1H1=M2D2H2

12x15x8= 9xD2x10

D2=16 days

10). Answer: a)

x2-5x+6=0

(x-2) (x-3)=0

X=2, 3
