Three friends divided some bullets equally. After all of them shot 4 bullets the total no.of remaining bullets is equal to that of one has after division. Find the original number divided
A12
B18
C20
D22
Answer: Option B
Explanation:Lets assume no. of Bullets = x
There are 3 divided equally each have x/3 bullets.
So, 4 bullets shot By each the no of bullet shoted is 4*3=12
=> remaining bullet = the bullet of a person
x-12=x/3 => 3x-36=x => 2x=36
=> x=18

So, relative speed = 9u
Distance covered = (time to meet * speed of plane)
=180*10u/9u =200 miles

A man sold two cows for Rs. 210 at a total profit of 5 %. He sold one cow at a loss of 10% and another at a profit of 10%. What is the price of each cow?
ARs. 100 & Rs. 50
BRs. 150 & Rs. 50
CRs. 150 & Rs. 75
DNone of these
Answer: Option B
Explanation:Total 5% profit on Rs.210 i.e. Original Price= Rs. 200
Lets assume one cow price = Rs. x
so another cow price = Rs. (200-x)
Now loss of 10% on X = 10x/100
& profit of 10% on (200-x) =(200-x)10/100
=> x-[10 x /100] + [200 - x]+[(200 - x)10/100]=210
By Solving this x = 50
so one cow is of x = Rs. 50
and Other is of 200-x = (200-50) = Rs. 150

A family I know has several children. Each boy in this family has as many sisters as brothers but each girl has twice as many brothers as sisters. How many brothers and sisters are there?
A5 boys and 3 girls.
B3 boys and 4 girls.
C4 boys and 4 girls.
D4 boys and 3 girls.
Answer: Option D
Explanation:Lets assume no. of girls = x and boys = y
y = (x+1) ----------- (i)
As each boy have equal no. of sisters and brothers and he is not included in brothers.
so, 1 is for him in (x+1).
y = 2(x-1) ------ (ii)
as each girl have (x-1) sisters.
By solving eq. (i) and(ii)
girls = 3 and boys = 4

In a soap company a soap is manufactured with 11 parts. For making one soap you will get 1 part as scrap. At the end of the day u have 251 such scraps. From that how many soaps can be manufactured?
A25
B22
C28
D30
Answer: Option A
Explanation:251 scraps will be used to make 22 soaps with remaining 9 scraps. again the 22 soaps will produce 22 scraps.
so 22+9=31 scraps which makes 2 soaps with remaining 9 scraps. Again the 2 soaps will produce 2 scraps.
=> we have 11 scraps which can be used to make 1 soap with 1 scrap as remaining.
Therefore totally,22+2+1=25 soaps.
simply the resultant number of sscraps needed to make one soap is = 10 scraps
so the answer = quotient of (251/10) = 25

There is a 5 digit no. 3 pairs of sum is eleven each. Last digit is 3 times the first one. 3 rd digit is 3 less than the second.4 th digit is 4 more than the second one. Find the digit.
A25295
B24296
C25296
DNone of these
Answer: Option C
Explanation:Let the 5 digit no as "a b c d e"
Given last digit is 3 times first => e=3a
3rd digit 3 less than second => c = (b-3)
4th digit is 4 more than second => d = (4+b)
Now a,b,(b-3),(4+b),3a
Given, 3 pairs of sum is 11
so, c+d = 11 ---- (1)
=> b-3+b+4=11 => b = 5
c = 2, d = 9
so number is __529__
we have think of a number which should be added to five to get 11
5+6=11
So, last no (i.e e) = 6
a = 2
So, number is 25296

Every day a cyclist meets a train at a particular crossing. The road is straight before the crossing and both are traveling in the same direction. The cyclist travels with a speed of 10 Kmph. One day the cyclist comes late by 25 min. and meets the train 5km before the crossing. What is the speed of the train?
A66 kmph.
B40 kmph.
C60 kmph.
D76 kmph.
Answer: Option C
Explanation:Speed of the train = 60km/hr.
Speed of Cyclist travel = 10km/hr.
It means, Cyclist travels 5km in 30minutes.
If Cyclist comes late by 25 min and meets the train 5km before the crossing means, it shows
Train can travel 5Kms in 5minutes.
So, speed of train is (5 km/5min) = 1 km/1min = 60km per hour.

Justin was always prepared. His motto was "Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy." His bedroom was so full of flat bicycle tires, bent tennis rackets, deflated basketballs, and games with missing pieces that you could barely get in the door. His parents pleaded with him to clean out his room.
"What use is a fish tank with a hole in the bottom?" his father asked. But Justin simply smiled and repeated his motto, "Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy."
When Justin was away from home, he always carried his blue backpack. He liked to think of it as a smaller version of his bedroom a place to store the many objects that he collected. It was so worn and stretched that it hardly resembled a backpack anymore. It was full of the kind of things that seemed unimportant, but when used with a little imagination, might come in handy.
Justin had earned a reputation for figuring things out and getting people out of otherwise hopeless situations. Many of his classmates and neighbors sought him out when they needed help with a problem. On the first day of school, his friend Kenny, came looking for Justin.
"Do you think you have something in your bag that could help me remember my locker combination?" he asked. "I lost the scrap of paper it was written on. I have science class in two minutes and if I'm late on the first day it'll make me look bad for the rest of the year." Kenny looked genuinely worried.
"Relax," Justin said, taking his backpack off and unzipping the top. "Remember how you borrowed my notebook in homeroom to write the combination down? Well, I know how we can recover what you wrote."
He took the notebook and a soft lead pencil out of his bag. The page that Kenny had written on had left faint indentations on another page in the notebook. Justin held the pencil on its side and rubbed it lightly over the indentations. Slowly but surely the numbers of the locker combination appeared in white, set off by the gray pencil rubbings.
"That's amazing!" Kenny said. "I owe you one." And he dashed off to open his locker.
During science class, Mr. Tran was lecturing on the structure of the solar system using a model. He made a sudden gesture and the model fell apart. Planets and rings and connector rods went everywhere, rolling and clattering and disappearing under desks. The students scrambled around on the floor for ten minutes and were finally able to recover every piece except one a connector rod that was lodged in a crack between two lab stations.
"If we had a magnet," said Mr. Tran, "we could easily coax it out that way. But I loaned all of the magnet kits to the elementary school yesterday."
Justin was already searching through his backpack. "I have some materials that will work just as well, I think," he told Mr. Tran. He pulled out a battery, an iron nail, and some electrical wire and tape, while Mr. Tran and the other students looked on in amazement.
"Why do you have all of that stuff?" Louise Baxter asked. Justin just smiled and repeated his motto. "Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy."
By wrapping the wire around the nail and taping each end to a battery terminal, he was able to make a magnet strong enough to lift the rod out of the crack.
"Bravo!" said Mr. Tran.
"No problem," said Justin.
After school, Justin rode the bus to the mall where he worked at a music store. His boss, Gail, was taking inventory of all of the CDs and tapes in the classical music section. As he helped a customer at the register, Justin heard her exclaim, "Oh, no! I forgot my glasses! There's no way I can read this list without them." Justin sighed, picked up his backpack, and walked over to Gail.
"I think I can help you out," he said, unzipping the bag. While Gail watched in surprise, he pulled out a jar of petroleum jelly, a washer, a glass slide, and a small bottle of water. He put the jelly on the bottom of the washer, placed it securely, jelly-side down, on the glass slide, and then put a drop of water in the center of the washer.
He put the contraption on top of the inventory list and said to his boss, "See what happens when you look through the water droplet." Gail looked and her eyes widened with delight.
"Wow!" she cried. "It enlarges the print that I'm looking at, just like a magnifying glass!" She patted Justin on the back. "I'm all set now," she said. "Thanks."
Justin smiled. "No problem," he said, returning to the register.
It was just another day in the life of the boy whose motto was "Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy."
