If 353 – [173 – {x – (125 – 237)}] = 60, then x is equal to:
353 – [173 – {x – (125 – 237)}] = 427
⇒ 353 – [173 – {x – (– 112)}] = 427
⇒ 353 – [173 – {x + 112}] = 427
⇒ 353 – [173 – x – 112] = 427
⇒ 353 – [61 – x] = 427
⇒ 353 – 10 + x = 427
⇒ x = 427 – 343 = 84
Each interior angle of a regular polygon is 90°greater than each exterior angle. How many sides are there in the polygon?
Sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon with n sides = (n – 2) × 180°
Sum of the exterior angles of a convex polygon = 360° ... (1)
Let each exterior angle be A°. Then each interior angle will be 90 + A°
The sum of an exterior and its corresponding interior angle is 180°
∴ A + (90° + A) = 180°
⇒ A = 45°
Sum of the exterior angles of a convex polygon = 360° … (from 1)
i.e., if the polygon has 'n' sides, then n × A = 360
∴ Number of sides of the regular polygon, n = 360/measure of one exterior angle = 360/45 = 8 sides.
Two years ago a man was 6 times as old as his son. After 10 years he will be twice as old as his son. What is the present age of man and his son?
Let age of son 2 years ago be = x
Age of man 2 years ago would be = 6x
As per question after 10 years;
2 × age of son = age of man
⇒ 2(x + 2 + 10) = (6x + 2 + 10)
⇒ 2x + 24 = 6x + 12
⇒ 4x = 12
⇒ x = 3 years
∴ Present age of son = 3 + 2 = 5 years
Present age of man = 6x + 2 = 6 × 3 + 2 = 20 years
Rs.8645 are distributed among A, B and C. The share of "A" is the 3/4 of the share of B and the share of B is the 2/3 of the share of C. Find the difference between the share of B and C.
The share of A : B is 3 : 4
The share of B : C is 2 : 3
⇒ A : B : C = 3 × 2 : 4 × 2 : 4 × 3
⇒ A : B : C = 6 : 8 : 12
⇒ A : B : C = 3 : 4 : 6
Sum of ratios = 13
Now, the share of B = [4/13] × 8645 = 2660
Share of C = [6/13] × 8645 = 3990
∴ The difference between the share of B and C = 3990 – 2660 = 1330
A and B started working on a Project. They completed 1/2 of the work after which they left and C joined the project. C can complete the whole project in 12 days. After C worked for 2 days, D joined the project and worked for 4 days. Find the number of days in which D can complete the whole project?
C’s work for 1 day = 1/12
A and B complete 1/2 and C completed 1/12 × 2 = 1/6
Completed work before D joined is 1/2 + 1/6 = 4/6
The work completed by D = 1 – 4/6 = 2/6 of work
Now project uncompleted after D left = 1/12
⇒ D did = 2/6 – 1/12 = 3/12 of work
He worked for 4 days, means he complete 3/12 of work in 4 days
⇒ He can do complete project in 12/3 × 4 = 16 days
Find the equation of line passing through points (5, 7) and (– 2, 3).
Slope of line (m) = (3 – 7)/(– 2 – 5) = – 4/–7 = 4/7
Equation of line: y – y1 = m(x – x1)
⇒ y – 7 = 4/7(x – 5)
⇒ 7(y – 7) = 4(x – 5)
⇒ 7y – 49 = 4x – 20
⇒ 4x – 7y + 29 = 0
Each member of a club contributes as many rupees as and much paisa as the number of members of the club. If total contribution is Rs. 4949, then the number of members of the club is:
Let the number of members be x.
x member contribute is Rs. x and each member also contributes x paisa.
So total Rupees is
x2 + x2/100 = 4949
101x2 = 4949×100
x2 = 49 × 100
x= 70
A number when divided by the sum of 273 and 327 gives three times their difference as quotient and 16 as the remainder. The number is:
Let the number = x
Divisor = 273+327= 600
Quotient = 3×(327-273) = 46×3= 138
Remainder = 16
X= divisor × quotient + remainder
X= 600 × 138 + 16
X= 82816
A can do as much work in 3 days as B can do in 7 days, and B can do as much work in 5 days as C in 3. In what time will all together can complete a work which A can do in 14 days.
According to the question,
3A = 7B
A/B = 7/3 and 5B = 3C, B/C = 3/5
Ratio of efficiency of A, B and C is 7 : 3 : 5
A can do total work in 14 days,
So total work = 14 × 7 = 98
A, B and C take time = 98/(7+3+5) = 98/15 = 6 8/15 days
The ratio of the amount of work done by (x-2) employees in (x+3) days and that done by (x+3) employees in (x-1) days is 6 : 7. Then the value of x is:
(x – 2)(x + 3)/{(x + 3)(x – 1) = 6/7
(x-2)/(x-1) = 6/7
7x – 14 = 6x – 6
X = 8
