e) none of these

Answers:

Q.1 Option :  B
Total Distance = x,
Now, 2/3*x/4 + 1/3*x /5= 42/60
----> 10x+4x/60 = 42/60
---> 14x = 42
x = 3 km.

Q.2 Option : B
Exp : let length of 1st train= x and length of 2nd train = x/2
then, Relative speed = Lt1 + Lt2/time
----> 48+42 = x + x/12
---> 90km/h = 3x/12*2
---> 90*5*2*12/18*3=x
----> x = 200m
Now, St = Lt + Lp/ 45
---> 48*5*45/18 = 200 + Lp
----> 600 = 200 + Lp
----> Lp = 400m

Q.3 Option : C
Exp : 4x+4/3x+4 = 9/7
or 28x + 28 = 27x + 36
or x = 8
2nd  conditions, let y yr ago they got married
 32-y/24-y = 5/3
96 -3y= 120-5y or y = 12.

Q.4 Option : D
Exp :         N            A                 S
                 40           50                2000
                 38           48                1824

Now, Let Lowest score = x and Highest= x+ 172
x + x +172 = 2000 - 1824 = 176  or, x = 2
So, Highest score = 2+ 172 = 174.

Q.5 Option : D
Exp : Increase during 3 years= (3*5)years =15 yr.
So, the difference b/w ages of old and new member is 15 years.

Q.6 Option : 1
Exp : The second No. = 12% of 50 = 12/100*50= 6
Let the First no. be x. Then,
2/3*x =6^3
---> x= 6*6*6*3/2 = 324
Req. Sum = 324 + 6 = 330

Q.7 Option : A
Exp : Let 1/2 of the no. = 10x + y
and the no. =  10v + w
From the given conditions,
w = x and v = y - 1
thus the no. = 10 (y-1) + x
therefore, 2(10x + y) = 10(y-1)+x
=> 8y - 19x = 10
v + w = 7 .................... (i)
=> y - 1 +  x = 7
therefore, x + y =8 ....................(ii)
after solving equation (i) and (ii), we get
x= 2 and y = 6
hence  from equation (a)
No. = 10 (y - 1) + x= 52.

Q.8 Option : C
Exp : Let the numerator and denominator be x and y respectively
Then, x+2/y+3 = 7/9
  or,   9(x+2) = 7(y+3)
=> 9x - 7y = 3               .......... (i)
Again, x - 1/y - 1 =4/5
=> 5x - 4y = 1               .......... (ii)
Solving (i) and (ii) we get, x = 5, y= 6
Req. fraction = 5/6.

 Q.9. Option : A
Exp: Suppose, usual time = T. If Usual Speed changes to 3/4 then time changes to 4/3T
therefore, 4/3T - T= 2*1/2
which is, => T/3 =5/2
=>T = 15/2 =7*1/2 hr.

Q.10. Option : D
Exp : Time Difference =30-5 = 25min.
therefore, T1- T2 =T . Now, let distance = x.
So, x/5 - x/6 = 25/60 h
=> 6x - 5x /30 = 25/60


=> x =  25/2 = 12.5 kmph
