One day’s work of A, B and C = (1/24 + 1/30 + 1/40) = 1/10.
C leaves 4 days before completion of the work, which means only A and B work during the last 4 days.
Work done by A and B together in the last 4 days = 4 (1/24 + 1/30) = 3/10.
Remaining Work = 7/10, which was done by A,B and C in the initial number of days.
Number of days required for this initial work = 7 days.
Thus, the total numbers of days required = 4 + 7 = 11 days.
Answer: Pile II
Let cost for apple be a Cost for banana be b and Orange be c
So by first value expression becomes 17a + 13b + 9c =130 ———-1 therefore if you further solve a = (130 – 13b – 9c)/17 ———- 2 the second expression becomes: 13c + 7a + 10b = 100 ———- 3 If you put value of a in second expression it becomes: 13c + 7[(130 – 3b – 9c)/17] +10b = 100
Further if you solve you get value of b:
b = 10 – 2c ———-4
put value of b from 4 in 1
17a + 13 [10 – 2c] + 9c = 130
Further if you solve you find value of a
a = c ———-5
Put 5 in 3
13c + 7c + 10b = 100
further solve you get: c = 1 ———-6
from 5 and 6
a = c = 1 ———-7
Substitute value of c in expression 4
b = 10 – 2c b = 10 -2 * 1 b = 8 ———-8
therefore a + b + c = 10
Let the number of males be given the name M.
Let the number of females be given the name F.
If 15 females are absent, then M will be twice that of
present females.
This means that M = 2 * (F – 15)
M = 2 * F – 30.
or 2 * F – M = 30.
Now if in addition to the 15 females being absent, we also
have 45 males being absent,
then this gives the equation,
(F – 15) = 5 * (M – 45)
which simplifies to
F – 15 = 5 * M – 225
5 * M – F = 210
Pulling the equations together, we get
5 * M – F = 210
-M + 2 * F = 30
Multiply the first equation by 2, and keep the second
equation as is.
10 * M – 2 * F = 420
– M + 2 * F = 30
Add the equations.
9 * M = 450
M = 50
Verify answer.
Calculate F
from – M + 2 * F = 30
-50 + 2 * F = 30
2 * F = 30 + 50
F = 40.
If 15 females are absent, then number of males will be twice
that of females.
40 – 15 = 25.
50 = 2 * 25. Confirmed.
If also 45 males were absent, then female strength would be
5 times that of males.
Female strength is 25 due to the 15 females being absent.
50 – 45 = 5.
25 = 5 * 5. Confirmed.
Answer:
Since the car has met the person 20 minutes before hand, it has actually saved 10 mins of journey (to and fro)
since the man has started 1.30 hrs before and car has met him 10 mins before actual time he takes to reach daily is 1hr and 20 mins

56.25 % is the right answer.
area of square = side ^ 2
at first, it was 100% , means 1
then, a side was enlarged to 25%, means now, 125% means new side is 1.25
taking square will give 1.5625
1.5625 – 1 = 0.5625
so, 56.25% increment in area.
its a tricky question and very funny too.
the answer is 45% only which is gained by the minute hand.
