Question No 8

The sum of ages of 5 children born at the intervals of 3 years each is 50 years. Find out the age of the youngest child?

Select the correct answer

Solution!
Let the ages of children be x, (x + 3), (x + 6), (x + 9) and (x + 12) years.

Then,
x + (x + 3) + (x + 6) + (x + 9) + (x + 12) = 50
5x = 20
x = 4

Hence, Age of the youngest child = x = 4 years.

30x - 210 = 24x
6x = 210
x = 35

Hence 35 workers are required to complete the job in time..

Select the correct answer

Solution!
Speed of the train relative to man = (63 - 3) km/hr
= 60 km/hr = 60 * (5/18)m/s
= (50/3)m/s

Hence, Time taken to pass the man
= 500 * (3/50)s
= 30 seconds.

Question No 19

In 1975, A was thrice as old as B but in 1979, A was only twice as old as B was. How old was A in 1985?

Select the correct answer

Solution!
Let A's age in 1985 was X.

Given that
X-10 = 3(B-10)
X-10 = 3B-30
3B-X = 20 ...(1)

and
X-6 = 2(B-6)
X-6 = 2B-12
2B-X = 6 ...(2)

By simultaneously solving equation(1) and (2) we have

Let Aslam's present age is x and Akram's present age is y.

Given that
y-10 = 3(x-10)
y-10 = 3x-30
y-3x = -20
3x-y = 20 ...(1)

and also given that
y+10 = 2(x+10)
y+10 = 2x+20
y-2x = 10 ...(2)

By simultaneously solving equation(1) and equation(2)
y=70

Hence Akram's present age is 70 years..

Question No 44

Sandeep's age after six years will be three-seventh of his father's age. Ten years ago the ratio of their ages was 1/5. What is Sandeep's father's age at present?

Select the correct answer

Solution!
Let the age of Sandeep and his father before 10 years be x and 5x respectively.

Given that Sandeep's age after six years will be three-seventh of his father's age

x + 16 = (3/7)(5x + 16)
7x + 112 = 15x + 48
8x = 64
x = 8

Sandeep's father's present age = 5x + 10
= 5*8 + 10 = 50.

Question No 47

X is 4 times as old as y. 4 years ago, X was 10 times as old as Y. What will be the ratio of their ages 6 years hence?

Select the correct answer

Solution!
Given that
X = 4Y ...(1)

and
X-4 = 10(Y-4)
X-4 = 10Y-40
X-10Y = -36
10Y-X = 36 ...(2)

Put value of X from equation(1) in equation(2)
10Y-4Y = 36
6Y = 36
Y = 6

Put value of Y in equation(1)
X = 4*6
X = 24

After 6 years
Y = 24+6
Y = 30
and
X = 6+6
X = 12

Ratio between X and Y is
30/12 = 5/2

Hence after 6 years ratio between ages of X and Y will be 5/2..

Question No 48

A man can row at 5 kmph in still water. If the velocity of current is 1 kmph and it takes him 1 hour to row to a place and come back, how far is the place?

Select the correct answer

Solution!
Speed downstream = (5 + 1) kmph = 6 kmph

Speed upstream = (5 - 1) kmph = 4 kmph

Let the required distance be x km.

Then,
x/6 + x/4 = 1
2x + 3x = 12
5x = 12

Hence, x = 2.4 km.

John sold a house for $494500 at a profit of 15%. How much did he pay for it?

Select the correct answer

Solution!
Let cost price of the house is x.
15% of x = 15x/100 = 3x/20

Now
494500 - (3x/20) = x
9890000 -3x = 20x
9890000 = 23x
x = 430000

Hence cost price of the house is $430000..

Question No 51

The age of father 10 years ago was thrice the age of his son. Ten years hence, father's age will be twice that of his son. The ratio of their present ages is

Select the correct answer

Solution!
Let the ages of father and son 10 years ago be 3x and x years respectively.

Then,
(3x + 10) + 10 = 2[(x + 10) + 10]
3x + 20 = 2x + 40
x = 20
So, 3x + 10 = 70
and x + 10 = 30

Hence, ratio is 70/30 = 7/3..
