Correct Answer:
C: 240
Explanation:
A school has 10 classes with the same number of students in each class. One day, the weather was bad and many students were absent. 3 classes were half full, 5 class were 3/4 full and 2 classes were 1/6 empty. A total of 74 students were absent. What is the total number of students in this school? Correct Answer 240 Let x = number of students in each class. Then total number of students in school. is = 10x If 3 classes are half full then we have 3x/2 students absent. If 5 classes are 3/4 full that means that (1/4)*5x students are absent. If 2 classes are 1/6 empty that means that (1/6)*2x students are absent. Now we are told that (3x/2) + (1/4)*5x + (1/6)*2x = 74 or,(3x/2) + (5x/4) + (x/3) = 74 or,18x + 15x + 4x = 888 or,7x = 280 x = 24 number of students in each class is 24 number of student in this school = 10x = 10*24 = 240 ans: 240

A number when divided by 105 leaves 99 as remainder . What will be the remainder if the number is divided by 21 ?
Correct Answer:
A: 9
Explanation:
A number when divided by 105 leaves 99 as remainder . What will be the remainder if the number is divided by 21 ? Correct Answer 9 We know, divident = quotient x divisor + remainder So, divident = quotient x 105 + 99 Now, 105 is completely divisible by 21 yielding the quotient 5. So, we only need to divide the remainder 99 by 21 to see if any remainder remains. Now, 99 = 4 x 21 + 15. So, 15 will be remained as a remainder if the number is divided by 21 instead of 105.

Correct Answer:
A: Tk. 1.80
Explanation:
Based on the information below, how much did a certain telephone call cost? 1. The call lasted 1 minute 27 seconds 2. The cost for the first 30 second unit is Tk. 1.80, call duration more than 30 seconds costs Tk. 0.90 per 30 second unit 3. Any call duration less than 30 seconds is rounded up to the nearest 30-second unit. Correct Answer Tk. 1.80 The call lasted for 1 minute and 27 seconds, which is a total of 87 seconds. Any call duration of less than 30 seconds is rounded up to the nearest 30-second unit, so the duration of this call will be rounded up to 90 seconds, which is 3 units of 30 seconds.The first 30-second unit costs Tk. 1.80, so the cost of the first unit is Tk. 1.80.The remaining 2 units of 30 seconds each cost Tk. 0.90 per unit, so the cost of the remaining units is Tk. 0.90 x 2 = Tk. 1.80.Therefore, the total cost of the call is Tk. 1.80 + Tk. 1.80 = Tk. 3.60.

If the average (arithmetic mean) of 5 consecutive numbers is 12 , what is the sum if the least and the greatest of the integers?
Correct Answer:
A: 10
Explanation:
If the average (arithmetic mean) of 5 consecutive numbers is 12 , what is the sum if the least and the greatest of the integers? Correct Answer 10 Let the consecutive integers be n, (n + 1), (n + 2), (n + 3) and (n + 4) respectively. So, n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) + (n + 3) + (n + 4) = 12 x 5 or, 5n + 10 = 60 or, 5n = 60 - 10 or, n = 50 / 5 = 10. So, the least number is 10 and the greatest number is (10 + 4 = 14). Their sum = 10 + 14 = 24.

Equal amounts of water were poured into two empty jars of different capacities, which made one jar 1/4 full and the other jar 1/3 full. If the water in the jar with the lesser capacity is then poured into the jar with the greater capacity, what fraction of the larger jar will be filled with water?
Correct Answer:
A: 1/3
Explanation:
Equal amounts of water were poured into two empty jars of different capacities, which made one jar 1/4 full and the other jar 1/3 full. If the water in the jar with the lesser capacity is then poured into the jar with the greater capacity, what fraction of the larger jar will be filled with water? Correct Answer 1/3 Evidently, 1/3 full jar is of the lesser capacity as 1/3 is greater than 1/4. As equal amount of water was poured into each jar, pouring water from the jar of lesser capacity to the larger jar will make the amount of water in the larger jar to get doubled. Therefore, the fraction of larger jar filled with water will be = 2 x 1/4 = 1/2
