The hcf of two numbers is 23 and the other two factor

1. 👉  The H.C.F. of two numbers is 23 and the other two factors of their L.C.M. are 13 and 14. The larger of the two numbers is:

1. 276

2. 299

3. 322

4. 345

1. 👉  Answer & Explanation:

   H.C.F. of two numbers is 23       [ Given ]

   Clearly, the numbers are (23 x 13) and (23 x 14).

   ⇒  Larger number will be= (23 x 14) = 322.

   Mr. Thomas invested an amount of Rs. 13,900 

2. 
   

3. 👉  Mr. Thomas invested an amount of Rs. 13,900 divided in two different schemes A and B at the simple interest rate of 14% p.a. and 11% p.a. respectively. If the total amount of simple interest earned in 2 years be Rs. 3508, what was the amount invested in Scheme B?

1. A. Rs. 6400

2. B. Rs. 6500

3. C. Rs. 7200

4. D. Rs. 7500

1. 👉 Answer & Explanation:

   Suppose the Thomas invested sum in Scheme A is Rs. X and that in Scheme B is Rs. (13900 - X)

   Then, { (X x 14 x 2) / 100 } + {(13900-X x 11 x 2) / 100} = 3508

   ⇒ 28X -  22x = 350800 - (13900 x 22)

   ⇒ 6X = 45000

   ⇒ X = 7500.

   So, invested sum in Scheme B = Rs. (13900 - 7500) = Rs. 6400.

An aeroplane covers a certain distance at a speed of 240 kmph

1. 👉 An aeroplane covers a certain distance at a speed of 240 kmph in 5 hours. To cover the same distance in 1 hours, it must travel at a speed of:

1. A. 300 kmph

2. B. 360 kmph

3. C. 600 kmph

4. D. 720 kmph

1. 👉 Answer & Explanation:

   Total Distance Covered = (240 x 5) = 1200 km.

   Speed Formul = Distance/Time

   Speed = 1200 / (5/3) km/hr

   Required Speed = 1200 x (3/5) km/hr

                               = 720 km/hr

A train 125 m long passes a man running at 5 km/hr

1. 👉   A train 125 m long passes a man, running at 5 km/hr in the same direction in which the train is  going, in 10 seconds. The speed of the train is:

1. A. 45 km/hr

2. B. 50 km/hr

3. C. 54 km/hr

4. D. 55 km/hr

1. 👉  Answer & Explanation:

   Relative Speed of Train respective to Man : (125 / 10) m/sec

   = 12.5 m/sec   [ As we Know to convert m/sec -> km/hr we must multiply with 18/5 ]

   = 12.5 x (18/5) km/hr

   = 45 km/hr

   Consider the spped of the train is X km/hr then Relative speed of Man will be X-5 km/hr

   So,   X - 5 = 45 

   X = 50 km/hr
