Answer : 3. "4"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 4 Explanation: N = H.C.F. of (4665 - 1305), (6905 - 4665) and (6905 - 1305) = H.C.F. of 3360, 2240 and 5600 = 1120. Sum of digits in N = ( 1 + 1 + 2 + 0 ) = 4

Answer : 2. "320 ml"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 320 ml Explanation: Here total parts of milk and water in the solution is 6+2 = 8 parts. 1part = 640/8 = 80 old mixture contains 6parts of milk and 2 parts of water(6:2). To get new mixture containing half milk and half water, add 4parts of water to the old mixture then 6:(2+4) to make the ratio same. i.e, 4 x 80 = 320 ml.

Answer : 1. "3/91"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 3/91 Explanation: In a circle of n different persons, the total number of arrangements possible = (n - 1)!Total number of arrangements = n(S) = (15 – 1)! = 14 !Taking three persons as a unit, total persons = 13 (in 4 units)Therefore no. of ways for these 13 persons to around the circular table = (13 - 1)! = 12!In any given unit, 3 particular person can sit in 3!. Hence total number of ways that any three person can sit =n(E) = 12! X 3!Therefore P (E) = probability of three persons sitting together = n(E) / n(S) = 12! X 3 ! / 14!= 12!x3x2 / 14x13x12! = 6/14x13 = 3/91
Q: A number of cats got together and decided to kill between them 999919 rats. Every cat killed an equal number of rats. Each cat killed more rats than there were cats. How many rats do you think that each cat killed ? 6170 05b5cc731e4d2b4197774f7d8

Answer : 1. "1009"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 1009 Explanation: Given total number of rats = 999919 999919 = 1000000 - 81 = 10002 - 92 = (1000+9)(1000-9) = 1009 x 991.Since there were more rats than there were cats, 991 cats killed 1009 rats each.
