Correct Answer:
A: 2.25
Explanation:
Farhana has a cake recipe which states that the cake should be baked in a pan 8 inches in diameter. If farhana wants to use the recipe to make a cake of same depth but 12 inches in diameter,by what factor she should multiply the recipe ingredients? Correct Answer 2.25 Let the depth of the cake be h. Volume of the smaller cake, π r2 h = π (8/2)2 × h = 16πh Volume of the larger cake, π R2 h = π (12/2)2 × h = 36πh So, ingredients should be multiplied by (36πh / 16πh) = 2.25

Correct Answer:
D: 24
Explanation:
In a two digit number, if it is known that its unit's digit exceeds its ten's digit by 2 and that product of the given number and the sum of its digits is equal to 144, then the number is- Correct Answer 24 Let the ten's digit be x Then, unit's digit = x + 2 Number = 10x + (x + 2) = 11x + 2 Sum of digits = x + (x + 2) = 2x + 2 ∴ (11x + 2)(2x + 2) = 144 ⇒ 22x2 + 26x - 140 = 0 ⇒ 11x2 + 13x - 70 = 0 ⇒ 11x2 + (35 - 22)x - 70 = 0 ⇒ 11x2 + 35x - 22x - 70 = 0 ⇒ (x - 2)(11x + 35) = 0 ⇒ x = 2 Hence, required number = 11x + 2 = 24 (ans)

Correct Answer:
C: 14
Explanation:
Three pipes P, Q and R can fill a tank in 6 hours. After working all three together for 2 hours, R is closed and P and Q can fill the remaining part in 7 hours. The number of hours taken by R alone to fill the tank is- Correct Answer 14 P, Q & R alltogether can fill 1/6 th of the tank in 1 hour So, in 2 hours they fill = 2×1/6 = 1/3 of the tank Remining part to be filled = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 of the tank P & Q together in 7 hours can fill 2/3 of the tank So, P & Q together in hour can fill = 2/(3×7) = 2/21 of the tank So, R alone can fill in 1 hour = 1/6 - 2/21 = (7 - 4)/42 = 1/14 of the tank Therefore, R alone can fill the tank in 14 hours.
A man can row three- quarters of a kilometer against the stream in 11.25 minutes and down the stream in 7.5 minutes. The speed ( in km/hr) of the man in still water is-
Correct Answer:
B: 5 km/hr
Explanation:
A man can row three- quarters of a kilometer against the stream in 11.25 minutes and down the stream in 7.5 minutes. The speed ( in km/hr) of the man in still water is- Correct Answer 5 km/hr Let the speed of the man and flow of the stream U and V respectively. Distance = 3/4 km Time taken to go upstream = 11.25 min = 11.25/60 hr Conbined speed upstream = (3/4) / (11.25/60) = 4 km/hr or, U - V = 4 or, V = U - 4 Time taken to go downstream = 7.5 min = 7.5/60 hr Conbined speed downstream = (3/4) / (7.5/60) = 6 km/hr or, U + V = 6 or, U + U - 4 = 6 or, 2U = 6 + 4 or, U = 10/2 = 5 km/hr
Present age of Samad and Akmal are in the ratio of 5:4 respectively. Three years later, the ratio of their ages will become 11:9 respectively. What is Akmals present age?
Correct Answer:
A: 24
Explanation:
Present age of Samad and Akmal are in the ratio of 5:4 respectively. Three years later, the ratio of their ages will become 11:9 respectively. What is Akmals present age? Correct Answer 24 Let their present ages be 5x and 4x respectively. Three years later, (5x + 3) : (4x + 3) = 11 : 9 or, (5x + 3) / (4x + 3) = 11/9 or, 9(5x + 3) = 11(4x + 3) or, 45x + 27 = 44x + 33 or, 45x - 44x = 33 - 27 or, x = 6 So, present age of Akmal = 4x = 4×6 = 24 years
