slope area at 3km/hr then downwards at the rate of 6km/hr.
then back to the home through the road at 4km/hr. what is the distance
he covered in one way if he reaches back home at
ans. 12km
approach.
let plain road is=xkm
uphill=downhill=ykm
total time of walk =9-3=6hrs
that is
x/4+y/3+y/6+x/4= 6
=>x+y=12
thus one way distance =12 km
2.a jeweller makes a window display. he has 7 gems of which he needs
to display 6. three on the left side of the pane on three on the
right. with following conditions.

diamond always on the right
ruby should not be kept with diamond or garnet.
emerald and sapphire should always be on the same side.
1]what are the possible combinations on the possible for left pane.
a] armanet,garnet , opal
b] armanet, ruby, garnet
c] diamond, emerald , sapphire
d] armanet , emerald, garnet
2]what are the possible combinations on the possible for right pane.
a]diamond, garnet , opal
b]diamond, ruby, opal
c]armanet,emerald, sapphire
d]diamond,garnet,ruby
3]if garnet, diamond, opal are on the right side what is possible
option for right side.
a]ruby,armanet,sapphire
b]armanet,emerald,ruby
c]armanet,emerald,sapphire
d]ruby,emerald,sapphire
4]if armanet, ruby, opal are on the left side what is possible

Ans 1]a 2]a] 3]c 4]d
3. in how many ways we can arrange numbers on a dice such that 1 and
6are opposite, 5 2nd 2 r
opposite and 4 and 3 r are opposite on a dice
ans 6*4 =24
4. complete the series
1, 2, 3, 5, 16,_
ans 231
approach
2^2-1^2=3
3^2-2^2=5
5^2-3^2=16
16^2-5^2=231
1, 2, 3, 8, -, 224
ans 27
approach
2*1+1=3
2*3+2=8
3*8+3=27
27*8+8=224
5. one watch gains 1minute/hr another watch loses 2minute/hr. in how
much time the difference of time between them would be
one hour.
ans 20 hrs
approach
diff between time in 1 nour is 1+2=3 minutes
thus
3 minutes diference in 1hr
60 minutes dofference in 3/60=20 hrs
6. a horse goes half of the distance with the speed 12miles/hr,
and after that rest half with luggage at 4 miles/hr. what is its
average speed?
ans 6 miles/hr
approach
avg speed=distance covered/ time taken
=2x/(x/4+x/12)
=6
7.in a jigsaw puzzle there are 100 pieces. minimum how many turns r
needed to complete it. at a time you can append
2 pieces only.
ans 99
8 there r two temperature scales A and B. 14 degrees in A is eqivalent
to 36 in B. and 133 in A is eqivalent to 87 in B
what is the temperature where they both are equal?
ans 52.5 degrees
approach
let the temp be =X
and caliberation in A=a
caliberation in B=b
A(X-14)=B(X-36)
A(X-133)=B(X-87)
thus
(x-14)(x-87)=(x-36)(x-133)
solving
x=52.2
9. a man picking up letters in a way that when picks up one misses
one, picks up another one misses 2, picks up another
one misses 3 ...........so on.
at the end he found he picked up 5% OF THE TOLTAL, HOW MANY LETTERS DI

ans 39
approach
when picked 1st.......dropped 1
2nd....... 2
3rd....... 3
----------------------------------------
picked nth.........dropped totlly sum of n natural nos
thus
n/{n(n+1)/2}= 5/100
=>n =39
