Answers :

Direction (1-5) :

1) Answer: b)

From I and II,

A’s one day work = 1/12

B’s one day work = 1/18

(A + B)’s one day work = (1/12) + (1/18) = 30/(12*18) = 5/36

(A + B)’s one day work = 36/5 = 7 (1/5) days

Both I and II are sufficient to answer the question.

From III,

A and B together can complete (5/6)th of the work = 6 days

(5/6)*Work = 6

(A + B) can complete the work in, 6*(6/5) = 36/5 = 7 (1/5) days

Statement III alone are sufficient to answer the question.

So, Either III alone or both I and II are sufficient

2) Answer: c)

From I and II,

The ratio between the length to that of breadth of the rectangle = 3: 2 (3x, 2x)

The perimeter of the rectangle = 80 meter

2*(3x + 2x) = 80

5x = 40

X = 8

Length = 3x = 24 m

Side of square (a) = 20 m

Perimeter of square = 4a = 80 m

Both I and II are sufficient to answer the question.

From I and III,

The ratio between the length to that of breadth of the rectangle = 3: 2 (3x, 2x)

The area of the rectangle = 384 Sq meter

3x*2x = 384

6x2 = 384

X2 = 384/6 = 64

X = 8

Length = 3x = 24 m

Side of square (a) = 20 m

Perimeter of square = 4a = 80 m

Both I and III are sufficient to answer the question.

From II and III,

The perimeter of the rectangle = 80 meter

2*(l + b) = 80

= > l+ b = 40

= > b = 40 – l

The area of the rectangle = 384 Sq meter

= > lb = 384

= > l*(40 – l) = 384

40l – l2 = 384

L2 – 40l + 384 = 0

(l – 24) (l – 16) = 0

L = 24, 16

If l = 24, then b = 40 – 24 = 16

If l = 16, then b = 40 – 16 = 24

The length of rectangle is always greater than breadth. So,

L = 24, b = 16

Side of square (a) = 20 m

Perimeter of square = 4a = 80 m

Both II and III are sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, any of the three statements are necessary to answer the given question.

3) Answer: d)

From I and II,

(3x + 12) / (2x + 12) = 21/16

48x + 192 = 42x + 252

6x = 60

= > x = 10

Present age of Sanu = 2x + 5 = 25 years

Both I and II are sufficient to answer the question.

From I and III,

5 years ago, Kathir: Sanu = 3: 2

3x – 2x = 10

= > x = 10

Present age of Sanu = 2x + 5 = 25 years

Both I and III are sufficient to answer the question.

From II and III,

After 7 years, Kathir: Sanu = 21: 16

21x – 16x = 10

5x = 10

= > x = 2

Present age of Sanu = 16x – 7 = 32 – 7 = 25 years

Both II and III are sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, any of the three statements are necessary to answer the given question.

4) Answer: e)

From I, II and III,

Length of train A = 2*150 = 300 m

According to the question,

(300 + 150)/[(50 + x)*(5/18)] = 18

(450*18)/[(50 + x)*5] = 18

90 = 50 + x

X = 40 Km/hr

Hence, all three statements are required to answer the question.

5) Answer: a)

From I and II,

Speed of downstream = 48/6 = 8 km/hr

Speed of upstream = 48/8 = 6 km/hr

Speed of boat in still water = (1/2)*14 = 7 km/hr

Both I and II are sufficient to answer the question.

From I and III,

Speed of downstream = 48/6 = 8 km/hr

8x = 8

X = 1

Speed of boat in still water = 7x = 7 km/hr

Both I and III are sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, either I and II or I and III are sufficient to answer the given questions.

Directions (6 – 10):

Boat A:

Let us take speed of boat A in still water be x kmph

Given,

288/(x+12) = 96/(x-12)

3/(x+12) = 1/(x-12)

3x-36 = x+12

2x = 48 => x= 24 kmph

Speed of boat A in still water is 24 kmph

Boat B:

Let us take speed of boat B in still water be x kmph

Given,

240/(x+8) = 120/(x-8)

2/(x+8) = 1/(x-8)

X+8 = 2x-16=> x= 24 kmph

Speed of boat B in still water is 24 kmph

Boat C:

Let us take speed of boat C in still water be x kmph

Given,

220/(x+15) = 100/(x-15)

11/(x+15) = 5/(x-15)

11x-165 = 5x+75

6x = 240 => x= 40 kmph

Speed of boat C in still water is 40 kmph

Boat D:

Let us take speed of boat D in still water be x kmph

Given,

350/(x+10) = 150/(x-10)

7/(x+10) = 3/(x-10)

7x-70 = 3x+30

4x = 100 => x= 25 kmph

Speed of boat C in still water is 25 kmph

Boat E:

Let us take speed of boat E in still water be x kmph

Given,

540/(x+20) = 180/(x-20)

3/(x+20) = 1/(x-20)

3x-60 = x+20

2x = 80 => x= 40 kmph

6) Answer: b)

Speed of Boat B and D, in still water together = (24 + 25) = 49 km/h

Speed of stream of Boat B and D together = 18 km/h

7) Answer: d)

2 (3780 – 126x + 2430 + 81x) = 15 (900 – x2)

2 (6210 – 45x) = 13500 – 15x2

12420 – 90x = 13500 – 15x2

15x2 – 90x – 1080 = 0

x2 – 6x – 72 = 0

x2 – 12x + 6x – 72 = 0

x (x – 12) + 6 (x – 12) = 0

(x + 6) (x – 12) = 0

x = –6, 12

Speed of stream = 12 km/h

8) Answer: b)

9) Answer: c)

Speed of Boat C in still water = 40 × 110% = 44 km/h

Speed of stream = 15 × 120% = 18 km/h

Time taken by Boat C to cover the distance of 91 km upstream = 91/ (44 – 18)

= 91/ 26 = 3.5 hours

10) Answer: b)

Ratio = (24 + 24) : (25 + 40)
= 48 : 65
