1. A 270 metres long train running at the speed of 120 kmph crosses another train running in the opposite direction at the speed of 80 kmph in 9 seconds. What is the length of the other train?
   (a) 230 m
   (b) 240 m
   (c) 260 m
   (d) 320 m
   Ans: (a) 230 m
   Explanation:
   Relative speed = (120 + 80) km/hr = 200 km/hr
   Converting to m/s:
   Relative speed = 200×5/18 m/sec = 500/18 m/sec
   Time taken = 9 seconds
   Let the length of the other train be x meters.
   According to the formula:
   x+170/9 = 500/18
   Solving for
   x+270=500
   x=230

4. On selling 17 balls at Rs. 720, there is a loss equal to the cost price of 5 balls. The cost price of a ball is:
   (a) Rs. 45
   (b) Rs. 50
   (c) Rs. 55
   (d) Rs. 60
   Answer: (d) Rs. 60
   Explanation:
   The cost price (C.P.) of 17 balls minus the selling price (S.P.) of 17 balls equals the C.P. of 5 balls.
   C.P. of 12 balls = S.P. of 17 balls = Rs. 720.
   Therefore, the C.P. of 1 ball = Rs. 720 / 12 = Rs. 60.
5. Aman started a business by investing Rs. 70,000. Rakhi joined him after six months with an investment of Rs. 1,05,000, and Sagar joined them with Rs. 1,40,000 after another six months.

   (c) 42 : 45 : 56
   (d) Cannot be determined
   Answer: (b) 12 : 15 : 16
   Explanation:
   Aman : Rakhi : Sagar = (70,000 x 36) : (1,05,000 x 30) : (1,40,000 x 24) = 12 : 15 : 16.

   (a) 57%
   (b) 60%
   (c) 65%
   (d) 90%
   Answer: (a) 57%
   Explanation:

   Required percentage =
   11628/ 20400 × 100% = 57%

   (d) 305
   Answer:
   (b) 127

   = [(476 + 424)2 – 4 x 476 x 424]
   = [(900)2 – 807296]
   = 810000 – 807296
   = 2704.

10. In a regular week, there are 5 working days and for each day, the working hours are 8. A man gets Rs. 2.40 per hour for regular work and Rs. 3.20 per hour for overtime. If he earns Rs. 432 in 4 weeks, then how many hours does he work in total.
    (a) 160
    (b) 175
    (c) 180
    (d) 195
    Answer: (b) 175
    Explanation: Suppose the man works overtime for x hours.
    Now, working hours in 4 weeks = (5 x 8 x 4) = 160.
    160 x 2.40 + x x 3.20 = 432
    3.20x = 432 – 384 = 48
    x = 15.
    Hence, total hours of work = (160 + 15) = 175.
11. If A + B means A is the mother of B; A – B means A is the brother of B; A % B means A is the father of B; and A x B means A is the sister of B, which of the following shows that P is the maternal uncle of Q?
    (a) Q – N + M x P
    (b) P + S x N – Q
    (c) P – M + N x Q
    (d) Q – S % P
    Answer: (c)
    Explanation:
    P – M → P is the brother of M.
    M + N → M is the mother of N.
    N x Q → N is the sister of Q.
    Therefore, P is the maternal uncle of Q.

    (a) 22
    (b) 24
    (c) 25
    (d) 26
    Answer: (c) 25
    Explanation: In this alternating series, 1 is subtracted, then 2 is added, and so on. Following this pattern:
    From 22 to 21 (subtract 1)
    From 21 to 23 (add 2)
    From 23 to 22 (subtract 1)
    From 22 to 24 (add 2)
    From 24 to 23 (subtract 1)
    So, the next step should be adding 2 to 23, resulting in 25.
