Lets assume votes = x
valid votes are 0.9x,
Given 70% of 0.9x is 900 more than 30% of 0.9x,
=> 0.9*0.7-900=0.3*0.9x
=> x=2500

3M + 8W = 6M + 2W ---------(1)
solving this we get
M = 2W
Therefore 3M + 8W = 14W
4M + 5W =13W
=>fraction of work is 13/14

64. The sum of ages of suresh and his father is 78 years.6 years hence father's age will be twice of suresh's age. Find present age of father.

Answer: 54 years

Explanation:

Lets assume suresh age = x years.
So, father age = (78-x) years.
Condition : 6 years hence
2* (x + 6) = (78 - x + 6)
=> 2x + 12 = 84 - x
=> 3x = 72
x = 24 years.
Father age = 78 - 24 = 54 years.

65. In this question A^B means A raised to the power of B Start with the integers from 1 to 10^2012. Replace each of them by the sum of its digits to get a string of 10^2012 numbers. Keep doing this until you get 10^2012 single digit numbers. Let m be the number of 1's and n be the number of 2's. Then m - n

Answer: 1

Explanation:

We divide all the numbers into groups of 9. (1 to 9), (10 to 18).....
Now when we divide each term in the first group by 9, we get 1, 2, 3 ..0 as remainders. Now digit sum is nothing but finding remainder when a number is divided by 9. So the last term, 10^2012 gives remainder 1 when divided by 9. So there is one "1" extra than 2's.

66. Two trains A and B start simultaneously from stations X and Y towards each other respectively. After meeting at a point between X and Y,train A reaches station Y in 9 hours and train B reaches station X in 4 hours from the time they have met each other. If the speed of trainA is 36 km/hr, what is the speed of train B?

Answer: 54 km/hr

Explanation:

Naming the trains as A and B. Then,
(A's speed) : (B's speed) = (b : a)^.5
where b and a is the time taken by trains B and A, to reach their destination after they meet.
hence,
36/B's speed = (4: 9)^.5
=> B's speed = 54km/hr

69. A car starts from rest and accelerates uniform upto speed 90 km/hrs in 5 sec. Total distance covered by car in this time will be

Answer: 62.5 m

Explanation:

Speed of car at last instant of given interval
= 90*5/ 18 m/s = 25 m/s
so average speed = 0+25 / 2
Therefore distance = 5 * 25/2 = 125/2 = 62.5 m

70. In a bid two firms A and B competing against each other.If the probability of bid amount quoted by B being lower than that of A is 0.8 and if it is known that the bid is won by the ones who quotes the lowest price,what is the probability that A wins the bid?

Answer: 0.2

Explanation:

Probability of 'a' biding lower than 'b' = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2
so probability of wining of 'a' = 0.2
