    Solutions

    Number of days between 22 January 2000 & 23 January 2005 

    365*3 + 366*2 – 22 + 23 = 1828

    261 weeks and 1 days

    22 January 2000 will be Thursday - 1 = Wednesday

     

  • Question 2/10
    1 / -0

    Aarush's birthday is on Thursday 27th April. On what day of the week will be Mitul's Birthday in the same year if Mitul was born on 28th September?

    Solutions

    Days left in April = 30 – 27 = 3 

    Days in September to count = 28 

    Thus total number of days from Aarush's birthday to Mitul’s birthday = 3 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 31 + 28 = 154 

    Thus number of odd days = 154 | 7 = 0 

    As Aarush's birthday is on Thursday, Mitul’s birthday will on Thursday + 0 days = Thursday.

  • Question 3/10
    1 / -0

    According to Suresh Date of match may be one of 23/4, 24/4, 25/4, 26/4, 27/4, 

    Common date is 27/4.

  • Question 4/10
    1 / -0

    If a day is made up of 30 hours instead of 24 and instead of 7 if a week is made up of 12 days but a year still has the same number of hours, then how many weeks will there be in a year?

    Solutions

    Number of hours in a year = 365*24 = 8760 

    Hours in a day = 30 

    Number of hours in a week = 30*12 = 360 

    Number of weeks in a year = 8760/360 = 24.33

     

  • Question 5/10
    1 / -0

    A-clock gains five minutes every hour. What will be the angle traversed by the second hand in one minute?

    Solutions

    Since, A clock gains five minutes every hour i.e. 65 minutes instead of 60 minutes. 

    Now, hour hand = 65/60 = 13/12

    Therefore, the second hand will traverse 13/12 * 360o = 390o

    Hence, option C is correct.

     

  • Question 6/10
    1 / -0

    At what time are the hands of clocks together between 6 and 7? 

    Solutions

    At 6’o clock the hour hand is at 6 and minute hand is at 12 so they are 30 min apart 

    Now to be together minute hand has to gain minutes over the hour hand 

    Time taken to gain 55 minutes = 60 minute 

    Time taken to gain 1 minute = 60/55min 

    Time taken to gain 30 min = 60/55 × 30 = 360/11 

    So the hands will coincide at 32 

    Hence, the correct option is A.
