    A vendor bought toffees at 6 for a rupee. How many for a rupee must he sell to gain 20%?

    • 3  

    • 4

    • 5

    • 6

    Correct Answer
    A. 5
    Explanation
    To find out how many toffees the vendor must sell to gain 20%, we need to calculate the selling price of one toffee. Since the vendor bought 6 toffees for a rupee, the cost price of one toffee is 1/6 rupee. To calculate the selling price, we add 20% of the cost price to the cost price. 20% of 1/6 rupee is 1/30 rupee. Adding this to the cost price, we get 1/6 + 1/30 = 5/30 + 1/30 = 6/30 = 1/5 rupee. Therefore, the vendor must sell 5 toffees for a rupee to gain 20%.

    In the first 10 overs of a cricket game, the run rate was only 3.2. What should be the run rate in the remaining 40 overs to reach the target of 282 runs?

    • 6.25

    • 6.5

    • 6.75

    • 7

    Correct Answer
    A. 6.25
    Explanation
    To find the required run rate in the remaining 40 overs, we need to calculate the total runs required in those overs. The total runs required to reach the target of 282 runs is 282 - (3.2 x 10) = 282 - 32 = 250 runs. To calculate the run rate, we divide the total runs required by the number of overs remaining, which is 250 / 40 = 6.25. Therefore, the required run rate in the remaining 40 overs is 6.25.

    Which animal sweat is red in color?

    • Hippopotamus

    • Rat

    • Kangaroo

    • Kangaroo Rat

    Correct Answer
    A. Hippopotamus
    Explanation
    Hippopotamus sweat is red in color due to a unique combination of oils and pigments secreted by their sweat glands. These pigments, called "hipposudoric acid" and "norhipposudoric acid," have antibacterial properties and act as a sunscreen for the hippos' sensitive skin. When the acids come into contact with oxygen, they turn red, giving the sweat a reddish color. This adaptation helps protect the hippos from sunburn and infections, making their sweat a distinctive shade of red.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    A boat having a length 3 m and breadth 2 m is floating on a lake. The boat sinks by 1 cm when a man gets on it. The mass of the man is:

    • 12 kg

    • 60 kg

    • 72 kg

    • 96 kg

    Correct Answer
    A. 60 kg
    Explanation
    When the man gets on the boat, it sinks by 1 cm. This sinking is caused by the displacement of water due to the added weight of the man. Since the boat sinks by 1 cm, it means that the weight of the man is equal to the weight of water that is displaced by the boat sinking. The weight of the water displaced is equal to the volume of water displaced multiplied by the density of water. The volume of water displaced is equal to the length multiplied by the breadth multiplied by the height of sinking (1 cm). Therefore, the weight of the man is equal to the volume of water displaced (3 m x 2 m x 0.01 m) multiplied by the density of water (1000 kg/m^3), which gives us 60 kg.

    A pupil's marks were wrongly entered as 83 instead of 63. Due to that the average marks for the class got increased by half (1/2). The number of pupils in the class is:

    • 40

    • 14

    • 20

    • 30

    Correct Answer
    A. 40
    Explanation
    If the pupil's marks were wrongly entered as 83 instead of 63, it means that the pupil's marks were higher than they should have been. This would result in the average marks for the class being higher than they should have been as well. The increase in average marks by half indicates that the pupil's marks were half of the average marks for the class. Since the pupil's marks were entered as 83 instead of 63, it means that the average marks for the class should have been 166 instead of 126. To find the number of pupils in the class, we can divide the total marks (166) by the average marks per pupil (4). Therefore, the number of pupils in the class is 40.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    When a plot is sold for Rs. 18,700, the owner loses 15%. At what price must that plot be sold in order to gain 15%?

    • Rs. 21,000

    • Rs. 22,500

    • Rs. 25,300

    • Rs. 25,800

    Correct Answer
    A. Rs. 25,300
    Explanation
    The owner initially sold the plot for Rs. 18,700 and incurred a loss of 15%. To find the selling price that would result in a gain of 15%, we need to calculate the original cost price of the plot.

    Let's assume the original cost price of the plot is x.

    According to the given information, the selling price is 85% of the cost price (100% - 15% loss).

    So, 85% of x is equal to Rs. 18,700.

    0.85x = 18,700

    Dividing both sides by 0.85, we get:

    x = 18,700 / 0.85 = Rs. 22,000

    To calculate the selling price that would result in a gain of 15%, we need to find 115% of the cost price.

    115% of Rs. 22,000 is equal to:

    (115/100) * 22,000 = Rs. 25,300

    Therefore, the plot must be sold for Rs. 25,300 in order to gain 15%.

    It was Sunday on Jan 1, 2006. What was the day of the week Jan 1, 2010?

    • Sunday

    • Saturday

    • Friday

    • Wednesday

    Correct Answer
    A. Friday
    Explanation
    From Jan 1, 2006 to Jan 1, 2010, there are 4 years. Each year has 365 days, except for leap years which have 366 days. In this case, 2008 is a leap year. So, the total number of days is 365 + 365 + 366 + 365 = 1461 days. Since 1461 is divisible by 7, the day of the week will remain the same after 1461 days. Therefore, Jan 1, 2010 will also be a Sunday.

    The average of 20 numbers is zero. Of them, at the most, how many may be greater than zero?

    • 19

    • 1

    • 10

    • 0

    Correct Answer
    A. 19
    Explanation
    The average of 20 numbers is zero, which means that the sum of all the numbers is also zero. In order for the sum to be zero, some numbers must be negative and some must be positive. However, since we are looking for the maximum number of numbers that can be greater than zero, we can assume that all the other numbers are negative. Therefore, the maximum number of numbers that can be greater than zero is 19.

    The sum of 5 children born at the intervals of 3 years each is 50 years. What is the age of youngest child?

    • 10 year

    • 2 years

    • 3 years

    • 4 years

    Correct Answer
    A. 4 years
    Explanation
    The sum of the ages of the 5 children can be calculated by multiplying the number of children (5) by the interval between their births (3) and adding the result to the age of the youngest child. So, if the sum is 50 years, the age of the youngest child would be 50 - (5 * 3) = 35 years. However, since the given options are all less than 35, it can be concluded that the age of the youngest child is 4 years.

    From a point P on a level ground, the angle of elevation of the top tower is 30º. If the tower is 100 m high, the distance of point P from the foot of the tower is:

    • 149 m

    • 156 m

    • 173 m

    • 200 m

    Correct Answer
    A. 173 m
    Explanation
    The angle of elevation is the angle between the horizontal line and the line of sight from the observer to the top of the tower. In this case, the angle of elevation is 30° and the height of the tower is 100 m. To find the distance from point P to the foot of the tower, we can use the tangent function. The tangent of 30° is equal to the opposite side (height of the tower) divided by the adjacent side (distance from point P to the foot of the tower). Rearranging the equation, we can solve for the adjacent side, which gives us a distance of approximately 173 m. Therefore, the correct answer is 173 m.
