20084.A can copy 50 papers in 10 hrs., while A & B can copy 70 papers in 10 hrs. How many hours are required for B to copy 26 papers?
10 hours
15 hours
12 hours
13 hours
Explanation:

A can copy 50 papers in 10 hrs., while A & B can copy 70 papers in 10 hrs.

It means B can copy 20 papers in 10 hrs.

Then time taken by B to copy 26 papers = 26 $\times$ 10/20 = 13 hours.

20085.A man travels by bus for 20 hours and they by train for 05 hours. if the average speed of the bus was 20 kmph and that of the entire journey was 24 kmph. What was the average speed of the train?
44kmph
30 kmph
36 kmph
40 kmph
Explanation:

Total distance travelled = 24 $\times$ (20+5) = 600 kms

distance travelled by bus = 20 $\times$ 20=400 kms

distance travelled by train = 600-400=200kms

Average speed of train = 200/5=40 kmph.

20086.The length and breadth of a square are increased by 40% and 30% respectively. The area of the resulting rectangle exceeds the area of the square by:
42%
62%
82%
None
Explanation:

Area of square = $x^2.$

Increment of length = 1.4x.

Increment of breadth = 1.3x

Area of rectangle = l×b = $1.82 x^2.$

Increment in area= $1.82 x^2$ - $x^2$= 82%.

20087.The average salary per month of 30 employees in a company is Rs. 4000. If the manager`s salary is added, the average salary increases to Rs. 4300, what is the salary of the manager?
Rs. 10000
Rs. 13000
Rs. 12000
Rs. 13300
Explanation:

Let total salary of the emp=30 $\times$ 4000=1,20,000

Now,

By adding one member that is Manager =31

So,

Total salary of the emp=31 $\times$ 4300=1,33,300

Net salary of the manager =1,33,300-1,20,000=13300.

20088.The ratio of the ages of A and B is 9:5. After 8 years B would reach the present age of A. Find the present ages of B and A respectively.
9, 5
10, 18
18, 10
5, 9
Explanation:

Let the present age of A & B be 9x and 5x.

According to the condition,

=> 5x + 8 = 9x

=> 4x = 8.

=> x = 2.

Therefore, the present age of A = 9 $\times$ 2 = 18 and B = 5 $\times$ 2 = 10.

20089.Find $[(4/7) ^3-(3/7) ^3]/ [(4/7) ^2-(3/7) ^2]$ =?
31/49
39/49
37/49
34/49
Explanation:

From the question,

$(4/7) ^3-(3/7) ^3$= $[(4^3) -(3^3)]/ (7^3)$

= $(64-27)/ (7^3)$

=37/343.

And,

$(4/7) ^2-(3/7) ^2$=$ [(4^2) -(3^2)]/ (7^2) $

= $[16-9]/ (7^2)$ =7/49.

Therefore, the required answer:

=> (37/343)/ (7/49) = (37 $\times$ 49/343)/7

=> (37/7)/7 = 37/49.

20090.The average weight of 8 men is increased by 1.5 kg when one of the men who weighs 65 kg is replaced by a new man. The weight of the new man is:
76 kg
76.5 kg
76.7 kg
77 kg
Explanation:

Let x be the average weight of 8 men (before replacement). Therefore (x+1.5) will be the average weight of 8 men (after replacement)

=> (7 $\times$ x + 68)/8 = x.

=> x = 65.

=> (7 $\times$ x + new)/8 = x + 1.5.

New = (8 $\times$ 65+8 $\times$ 1.5 × 8 $\times$ 65) = 65+12 = 77.

20091.If radius of a circle is diminished by 10% then its area is diminished by
10%
19%
20%
36%
Explanation:

Let, the old radius be `r`.

New r=(100-10)/100= 0.9r.

Old area=3.14 $\times$ $r^2$

New area=3.14 $\times$ $0.81r^2$

Hence, % decrease= [3.14 $r^2$(1-0.81)] $\times$ 100/3.14 => $r^2$ = 19%.

20097.Data-Sufficiency:Question: Which word in the code language means `flower?

Statements:

(I) `de fu la pane` means `rose flower is beautiful` and `la quiz` means `beautiful tree`.

(II) `de la chin` means `red rose flower` and `pa chin` means `red tea`.

I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
Either I or II is sufficient
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Explanation:

From the two statements given in I, the code for the only common word `beautiful` can be determined.

From the two statements given in II, the code for the only common word `red` can be determined.

In I and II, the common words are `rose and `flower` and the common code words are `de` and `la`.

So, the code for `flower` is either `de` or `la`.
