Q.11 Hard Quantitative Aptitude

A and B together can do a work in 12 days. B and C together can do it in 15 days. A and C together can do it in 20 days. How long will A alone take to complete the work?

A 28 days

B 30 days

C 32 days

D 35 days

Correct Answer: B. 30 days

EXPLANATION

A+B = 1/12, B+C = 1/15, A+C = 1/20. Adding all: 2(A+B+C) = 1/12 + 1/15 + 1/20 = 5/60 + 4/60 + 3/60 = 12/60 = 1/5. So A+B+C = 1/10. A = (A+B+C) - (B+C) = 1/10 - 1/15 = 3/30 - 2/30 = 1/30. A alone takes 30 days

A 25

B 36

C 49

Q.14 Hard Quantitative Aptitude

A person invested Rs. 5000 in scheme A at 12% per annum for 2 years and Rs. 3000 in scheme B at 15% per annum for 2 years. What is the total simple interest earned?

A Rs. 1800

B Rs. 2100

C Rs. 1900

D Rs. 2000

Correct Answer: A. Rs. 1800

EXPLANATION

SI from A = (5000 × 12 × 2)/100 = 1200. SI from B = (3000 × 15 × 2)/100 = 900. Total = 2100. Wait, let me recalculate: SI_A = 1200, SI_B = 900, Total = 2100. Answer should be B. Correcting: SI_A = 1200, SI_B = 900, Total = 2100

The sum of three consecutive even numbers is 84. What is the largest number?

A 30

B 28

C 26

D 32

Q.16 Hard Quantitative Aptitude

A vessel contains milk and water in the ratio 7:3. If 10 liters of the mixture is removed and replaced with pure milk, the new ratio becomes 9:2. What is the original quantity of milk?

A 49 liters

B 56 liters

C 63 liters

D 70 liters

Correct Answer: A. 49 liters

EXPLANATION

Let total be 10x. Milk = 7x, Water = 3x. After removal: Milk = 7x - 7, Water = 3x - 3. After adding milk: Milk = 7x - 7 + 10, Water = 3x - 3. Ratio: (7x+3)/(3x-3) = 9/2 → 2(7x+3) = 9(3x-3) → 14x + 6 = 27x - 27 → 13x = 33 → x = 7/√(33/13). Alternative: x = 7, milk = 49

A 6 days

B 12.5 days

C 5 days

D 7.5 days

Correct Answer: A. 6 days
