(b) 3750
(c) 2750
(d) 1000

(a) 3:1
(b) 1:3
(c) 1:2
(d) 2:1

7.If the efficiency of 2 men is equal to 3 women or is equal to 4 boys. By employing 14 men. 12 women and 12 boys a certain work can be finished in 24 days. If due to an emergency the work has to be finished in 14 days. How many additional labour are required if only men are available as labours?
(a) 20 men
(b) 18 men 
(c) 48 men
(d) 28 men

8.The ratio of A to B is 4 : 5 and that of B to C is 2 : 3. If A equals 800, C equals 
(a) 1000  
(b) 1200 
(c)1500
(d) 2000 

9.If A : B is 2 : 3, B : C is 6 : 11, then A : B : C is: 
(a) 2 : 3 : 11  
(b) 4 : 6 : 22 
(c) 4 : 6 : 11
(d) 2 : 6 : 11 

10.A boy can swim in still water at a speed of 10 km/hr. If the speed of the current would have been 5 kmph, then the boy could swim 60 km. 
(a) upstream in 4 hour
(b) downstream in 12 hours  
(c) upstream in 6 hours 
(d) downstream in 4 hours

Answers and Solution
1. (c) 
27 is divided by 13
so Required remainder = remainder by 27/13 = 1

2. (c)
Sum of digital at odd places of 854A9A = A+A+5 =2A+5
Sum of digits at even places of 854A9A =8+4+9 = 21
so(2A+5)-21 = 0 OR 11 or 22
so 2A+5-21 = 0
2A =16
A  = 8

3.(a) 
Soln= 5 hectares and 76 ares = 57600 m^2, find perimeter then multiply it by 6.
So length of wire is 5760m.

4.(c)

5.(d)
Soln- Work done by Q = 19/23 + 8/23 – 1 = 4/23
We know   Wage of Q = 4/23 * 5750 = Rs. 1000

6.(a)
Let speed upstream = x
Then, speed downstream = 2x
Speed in still water = (2x+x)/2=3x/2
Speed of the stream = (2x−x)/2=x/2
Speed in still water : Speed of the stream = 3x/2:x/2 = 3 : 1

7.(a)

8.(c)
A : B = 4 : 5
B : C = 2 : 3
so, A : B : C = 4 x 2 : 5 x 2 : 5 x 3
= 8 : 10 : 15
If A equals 800, then C equals 1500

9.(c)
A : B = 2 : 3 4 : 6
B : C = 6 : 11
so, A : B : C = 4 : 6 : 11

10.(d)
Rate downstream= 10 + 5 = 15 kmph
Rate upstream = 10 – 5 = 5 kmph
Time taken in swimming 60 km downstream
= 60/15=4 hours
Time taken in swimming 60 km upstream
= 60/5=12 hours
