Assam Public Service Commission APSC Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

The work done by A in 8 days is = 8/ 12 = 2/3

Means A alone completes 2/3 part of work.

Remaining work which is (1–2/3) = 1/3 is completed by B in 8–2 = 6 days

So the complete work done by B in 6/(1/3) = 18 days.

B alone can complete the work in 18 days.

Thin candle melts 3/4 in 3 hours leaving 1/4
Where as in the same time thick candle melts 3/6 leaving 3/6 which is 1/2. Now thick candle is exactly twice than the thin candle.

Or via modeling:

We need to find time at which the length of the thin candle is half the thick candle. Let x be the time. Thin candle melts at 1/4 an hour and thick candle melts at 1/6 an hour. In x hours they melt at x/4 and x/6 respectively. What’s left will be 1 – x/4 and 1 – x/6. We need to find x at which :

2 * (1 – (x/4)) = 1 – (x/6)

This equation results in x = 3

sorry this question is irrelevant.

6″

4x:5x:6x
100:50:25
100×4x +50×5x+25×6x
then 400x + 250x + 150x = 16000
800x=16000
x = 20

25 paisa=6x = 20×6=120

so the ans is 120 coins

x+8y=20, x=-3y
(-3y)+8y=20
5y=20
y=4
The answer for y is 4

The 3-digit number can be written as the sequence [n, 2n, 3n]
n = 1 → [1, 2, 3] → valid
n = 2 → [2, 4, 6] → valid
n = 3 → [3, 6, 9] → valid

n = 4 → [4, 8, 12] is not valid because this would lead to a 4-digit number
any value of n > 4 would also produce invalid answer

Answer: Three numbers: {123, 246, 369}

a = 2
d = 5 – 2 = 3
Then 12th term is :
This in arithmetic progression
L = a + (12 – 1) d
L = 2 + 11 * 3
L = 2 + 33 = 35
