Answer : 2. "72"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 72 Explanation: With close observation, you will note that each number in the list is in the middle of two prime numbers. Thus: 4 is in the middle of 3 and 5, 6 is in the middle of 5 and 7, 12 is in the middle of 11 and 13, 18 is in the middle of 17 and 19, 30 is in the middle of 29 and 31. 42 is in the middle of 41 and 43, 60 is in the middle of 59 and 61. Therefore, the next number would be the one that is in the middle of the next two prime numbers, which is 72 (which is in the middle of 71 and 73).

Answer : 3. "Both A & B gives result"
Explanation :
Answer: C) Both A & B gives result Explanation: a and b give, profit after 3 years = Rs.(3/8 x 22000) = Rs.8250. From c also, profit after 3 years = Rs. (2750 x 3) = Rs. 8250. ∴ P's share = Rs.(8250 x 5/11) = Rs. 3750. Thus, (either C is redundant) or (a and b are redundant).
Q: What is the difference in the shares of profit between P and Q in a joint business at the end of one year ? a. P Invested Rs. 80,000 and withdrew Rs. 20,000 after 6 months. b. Q joined four months after the start of business. c. Q's amount was 80% of P's amount during the last six months. 1396 05b5cc70be4d2b4197774f2dc

Answer : 4. "Data is not sufficient"
Explanation :
Answer: D) Data is not sufficient Explanation: a. P's investment = (80000 x 6 + 60000 x 6) = 840000 for 1 month. b & c. Q's investment = 80% of Rs. 60000 for 8 months. = Rs.(48000 x 8) for 1 month = 384000 for 1 month P : Q = 840000 : 384000 = 35 : 16. But, the total profit is not given, so data is inadequate.

Answer : 2. "24"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 24 Explanation: Sum of Interior angle is 180 .and it is given that interior angle is 150 more than exterior,so let exterior angle is x then interior will be x+150 now , interior + exterior =180x+150+x=180x=15 now , number of sides of polygon = 360 / exterior anglen = 360 / 15n = 24
Q: A contractor undertook to complete a piece of work in 120 Days and employed 140 men upon it. At the end of 66 days only half of the work was done,so he put on 25 extra men. By how much time did he exceed the specific time ? 2225 05b5cc709e4d2b4197774f2ad

Answer : 1. "2 days"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 2 days Explanation: work done=total number of person x number of days;half of work done = 140 x 66;For half of remaining work 25 extra men are added.Therefore, total men for half work remaining = 140 + 25 = 165;Let 2nd half work will be completed in K days;140 x 66 = 165 x KK = 122;Hence, extra days => 122-120 = 2days.

Answer : 2. "17"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 17 Explanation: Since floor starts form the 1 therefore 2 will be the 1st floor.Form 1 to 10 only 4,6,8,9,10 are not prime.Form 11 to 20 only 14 ,16,18 are not prime also non of their digits are prime.From 21 to 30 each number has a prime number so it must no be consider.In between 40 to 49 we have to consider only 40,44,46,48,49.50 to 59 follow either of the condition so we have too neglect it.In between 60 to 68 60,64,66,68.total option = 17.

Answer : 3. "32640"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 32640 Explanation: We know that zero can't be in hundreds place. But let's assume that our number could start with zero. The formula to find sum of all numbers in a permutation is 111 x no of ways numbers can be formed for a number at given position x sum of all given digits No of 1 s depends on number of digits So,the answer us 111 x 20 x (0+1+2+3+4+5) = 33300 We got 20 as follows. If we have 0 in units place we can form a number in 4*5 ways. This is for all numbers. So we have substituted 20 in formula. Now, this is not the final answer because we have included 0 in hundreds place. so we have to remove the sum of all numbers that starts with 0. This is nothing but the sum of all 2 digits numbers formed by 1 2 3 4 5. Because 0 at first place makes it a 2 digit number. So the sum for this is 11 x 4 x (1+2+3+4+5). =660 Hope u understood why we use 4. Each number can be formed in 4x1 ways So, the final answer is 33300-660 = 32640
