Feeling great to have entered among top 10 challengers and almost at the same time have also achieved 51 approved referrals :)(Refer Score: 96)!!!
The secret behind the high refer score is this page:

answer given on 30/6/2011 is wrong....
because the question says that marks between ram and shaym... that means answer should be 98/97 = 1.013. so option 10 is the correct answer...

Pls check the qn.

After every hour a number increases 15 % of its present value. How many times it will increase in 8 hours.

Pls check that new value will become 3 times the original value after 8 hours but the no of times , its value is increased is 2 times.
The qn is about increase in value and not about final value.
so answer should be 2 times and not 3 times.

pls note that here sum of prob. of using car, jeep, bus or train is 1.The probability that he reaches office later if he takes jeep, bus, car or train is 2/9, 1/9, 5/9, 2/9 respectively.
The probability that he reaches office in time if he takes jeep, bus, car or train is 7/9, 8/9, 4/9, 7/9 respectively. These prob have no relation with other mode . But sum of prob of reaching late or not using a particular mode is 1.

I can't understand the explanation for 28 Apr,2o11 Question. The Question Was "A person goes to office either by car, jeep, bus or train. The probabilities of which being 2/7, 3/7, 1/7 ,1/7 respectively. The probability that he reaches office later if he takes jeep, bus, car or train is 2/9, 1/9, 5/9, 2/9 respectively. If he reaches office in time, then the probability that he travelled by car is" but answer explanation was " the probability that he travelled by car is 2/7
The probability that he reaches office later if he takes car is 5/9
So probability that he reaches office in time by car =(2/7)*(4/9)= 8/63
Similarly probability for jeep = (3/7)*(7/9) = 21/63
Similarly probability for bus = (1/7)*(8/9) = 8/63
Similarly probability for train = (1/7)*(7/9) = 7/63
so required probability = (8/63)/(8/63)+(21/63)+(8/63)+(7/63)= 8/44 = 2/11" First how comes "(8/63)/(8/63)+(21/63)+(8/63)+(7/63)=8/44" ?

In the statement of coin puzzle, it clearly indicates that Tail has already occured in a coin. It means now dice is to be thrown and coin is not to be flipped again.

So the probability of getting even no will be 1/2 as 3 favourable chances out of 6 possible chances.

A coin is thrown. If head comes, a coin will be thrown again, otherwise a dice will be thrown. A tail has occurred in a coin, then probability of getting an even number in the dice would be 1/2 and not 3/7. because tail has already occured.
now dice will be thrown.
then possible positions are 1,2,3,4,5,6 and favourable positions are 2,4,6....... 3 chances.

so probability =3/6=1/2
