1. a, b and c are the sides of a right-angled triangle in which c is the hypotenuse measuring meters. If

side a is increased by and side b is increased by then their total becomes 14 meter. The

values of a and b, if a and b are integers.

(A). 4, 6 meters (B). 3, 6 meters

(C). 6, 8 meters (D). Data insufficient

Correct
B
Answer
a, b and c are sides of right angled triangle

As per information gives i.e.,

Also,

Explanation
i.e.,

i.e., 14a + 7b = 84

i.e., 2a + b = 12 or

Substituting this value in the equation,

i.e.,

i.e.,

i.e., or a = 3, taking the valid value, we get a = 3m and b = 6m.

2. A 10% sugar solution implies 10 gm sugar is dissolved in 100 gm water. Water evaporates on heating the
solution. On heating, 1 kg of the 10% solution is reduced to 0.5 kg. The concentration now is :

(A). 20 % (B). 18.2 %

(C). 22.2 % (D). 21.18 %

Correct
C
Answer
In a 10% solution, i.e., in 110 gm of solution ; there is 10 gm sugar.

1 kg of the solution has of sugar.

Explanation After heating, the amount of solution = 0.5 kg

Amount of water =

Solution percentage is = 22.2%.

3. A and B are efficient workers and can complete a job in 12 days together. They work for 4 days after which the
project gets stopped for 15 days. After 15 days, th of the remaining work is added. Thereafter, A works thrice

as fast and finishes the work in 6 days. If B had worked alone and at thrice his speed in the latter part, no.
of days (approximately) in which B finishes the entire work alone would be :

(A). 15 days (B). 22 days

(C). 13 days (D). 17 days

Correct
B
Answer

According to Question,

. . . . .(i)

In 4 days, they do rd of the work

Work left = 2/3

After 15 days, work left =

. . . . .(ii)

11/9 of the work is completed by A working at thrice the speed in 6 days.

Thus, he completes 11/9 work working at normal speed in 18 days.

Explanation He can complete the entire work in

days

B completes the work working at normal speed in days.

Working at thrice his speed, he completes it in days.

4. There are four outlet pipes of the same capacity fixed one above the other to a water tank. The first pipe is at the
bottom level and the fourth pipe is at three-fourths of the height of the tank. The third pipe is equidistant from the
second pipe and the fourth pipe, the second pipe is equidistant from the first and the third. The capacity of each
pipe is such that it can empty a full tank in four hours, whereas one inlet pipe can fill the empty tank in one hour.
The pipe is opened to fill the empty tank and after one hour it is closed, then all the outlet pipes are opened

When the tank is full, all the four pipes are opened together and shut after one hour. If the inlet pipe is opened
now, the time in which the tank will be full is :

(A). 60 minutes (B). 42.5 minutes

(C). 17.5 minutes (D). 10 minutes

Correct

Answer B
In 15 minutes, 25 litres from the tank are emptied.

In the next 20 minutes, 25 litres are emptied

In the next 30 minutes, 25 litres are emptied

For minutes, i.e., for the last 25 minutes, two pipes are open

Explanation In that time, litres are emptied

In an hour, litres are emptied

The inlet pipe fills the entire tank in 1 hour.

It fills 70.83 litres in

8. The sum of the ages of Mummy, Papa, Sonu, Sona and Sonia now is 96 years. Sonu is the youngest in the
family. The year Sonu was born, the sum of the ages of all the members of the family was just 66 years. If
Papa's age now is 6 times that of Sonu's present age then Papa's age 10 years hence will be :

(A). 30 years (B). 36 years

(C). 40 years (D). 46 years

Correct
D
Answer
Let Sonu's present age be years.

Since there are 5 members in the family excluding Sonu, the sum of their ages 5 years ago was
Explanation
5x less than the current sum. Thus, .

Thus, x = 6 and . Thus, Papa's age 10 years hence will be 46 years.
