If the person arrives at any random time, what is the probability that he gets into a train towards North.? -In a frequency of 15 mins if the person comes in first 10 mins he will catch northwards train.so the probability that he gets into a train towards North is 10/15=0.66 If he comes in the next 5 mins he will catch southwards train.so the probability of getting into a train towards southwards is 5/15=0.33 #8.Banu plays with two boxes seperately containing 25 red cards and 33 block cards and she allowed to move the cards between the boxes. She won the game by choose a box at random and a card at random from the chosen box the probability of getting a black card is minimized. Now,the question is to find that minimum probability. -to minimise probability of black card, put 1 red card in one box and 24 red cards and 33 black cards in second box. then min prob of getting black card = 0*1/2 + 0.5 * 33/57 = 11/38. #9.A completes a work in 20 days,B completes in 60 days and C in 45 days. all 3 prsn working 2gthr on a project got a profit of Rs 26000.what is profit of B?? -Profit will be divided in ratio of 1/20 : 1/60 : 1/45 or 9:3:4 profit of B = 26000*3/16 = 78000/16 = Rs. 4875. #9.My flight takes off at 2am from a place at 18N 10E and landed 10 Hrs later at a place with coordinates 36N70W.What is the local time when my plane landed? a) 6:00 am b) 6:40 am c) 7:40 am d) 7:00 am e) 8:00 am. -Latitudianal difference=(10+70)=80 So, time difference=80X4=320mins=5 hrs 20 mins Since the place is located towards west Therefore local time of that place during take off=8:40 p.m. So, local time during landing=8:40p.m.+10hrs=6:40a.m. #10.trucks A,B,C// A loads 10 kg/min B loads 13 1/3 kg/min C unloads 5kg/min If three simultaneously works then what is the time taken to load 2.4 tonnes?? -a loaded in 1 min =10kg// work day me diya hota to reciprocal lete but ye time me hain isliye direct jod //denge b loaded in 1 min=40/3kg c unloaded in 1 min=5kg so a,b,c are loaded in 1 min=55/3kg so 1 kg loaded by a,b,c in time =3/55min now, 2.4 tons loaded by a,b,c in time=(3/55)*2.4*1000=131min . #11.I was talking to a friend Tammy, the middle child of five. she has a younger sister Tracey, and three brothers Tommy (oldest child), Timmy and Tony (youngest child). I asked her how old she was, but she hardly ever gives a straight answer. The following is the conversation we had. "How old are you Tammy?" "I am three times as old as Timmy was born. Actually, it's a funny, but Timmy's,tracey's, Tommy's and my ages were all factors of Mum's age when Tony was born. The only other year where the ages of more than two of us were factors of Mum's age was when Tracey was half as old as I am now." "How old is your Mum now?" "There's another funny thing. when Mum turns 50, tony will be the same age Mum was when she gave birth to Tommy" Assuming Tammy was talking in terms of whole years, and with my mathematical and reasoning abilities i was able to quickly deduce not just Tammy's age, but all of thier ages. so how old are Tommy,Timmy,Tammy,Tracey,Tony and Mum Now? a) Tommy is 26, Timmy is 17, Tammy is 16,Tracey is 13, tony is 12 and Mum is 43 b) Tommy is 23, Timmy is 19, Tammy is 18,Tracey is 16, tony is 13 and Mum is 43 c) Tommy is 28, Timmy is 21, Tammy is 23,Tracey is 19, tony is 17 and Mum is 43 d) Tommy is 21, Timmy is 20, Tammy is 19,Tracey is 17, tony is 15 and Mum is 43. -the ans is b..based on the options given.because.in this opetion when we subtract 13 from each age then all the ages are facotros of moms age. #12.Seven Applicants for a Job - F, G, H, I, J, K, and L are each to be interviewed on monday or Tuesday .

PAGE NO 5 : 1. 1! + 2! + ……. + 50!=? a)3.1035*10^64 b)2.1021*10^65 c)3.1035*10^63 d)3.1035*10^62 ans- (a) what is the reminder when 6^17+17^6 is divided by 7 ? a) 3 b) 0 c) 6 d) 1 ans --- (B) 6^2=1 mod 7 [(6^2)=36,divided by 7 gives remainder 1] =>(6)^2*8=1^8 mod 7 =>6^16=1 mod 7 [all even power also gives 1 mod 7] =>(6^16)*6=1*6 mod 7 So, 6^17=6 mod 7. Likewise, 17^2=2 mod 7 =>(17)^2*3=2^3 mod 7 =>17^6=8 mod 7 [simplify: 8 is one time divisible by 7 & gives remainder 1] So, 17^6=1 mod 7. ((6^17+17^6)/7)= ((6 mod 7)+(1 mod 7))/7 =>((6+1) mod 7)/7 =>(7 mod 7)/7 =>Hence the remainder is 0 "/>
