Ques:- There is a leak in the bottom of a cistern. When the cisternis thoroughly repaired, it would be filled in 3 ? hours. It now takes half an hour longer. If the cistern is full, howlong will the leak take to empty the cistern?
A. 24 hours
B. 28 hours
C. 21 hours
D. 27 hours
E. None of these
Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-17 06:18:17:

Time taken to fill repaired cistern = 12 mins

In 1 min, pipe will fill = 1/12

Time taken to fill cistern with leak = 12 + 18 = 30 mins

In 1 min, it will fill = 1/30

Consider the leak as an outlet pipe, so

1/30 = 1/12 – [ in 1 min how much the outlet pipe leaks ]

= 1/12 – 1/30

= 5/60 – 2/60 = 3/60 = 1/20

Therefore, it will take 20 mins for the leak to empty the cistern

Ques:- Currently, the age of a father is three times that of his son. 2.5 years from now, age of the father becomes 2.5 times that of the son. The age of son currently is?
Recent Answer : Added by Bhagirathi H On 2022-09-15 16:37:05:

Fathers before age=3*before sons age—-(1)
After 2.5 years..
Fathers before age+2.5 years =2.5*sons age—-(2)
Substitute (1) in (2),
3*sons before age+2.5 years=2.5*sons age
0.5*sons age=2.5 years
Sons before age=5years
So current age after 2.5 years,
Sons before age+2.5 =5+2.5=7.5 years

Recent Answer : Added by Fatima On 2022-09-24 14:33:37:

It is assumed to be constant. Now, to cross past the pole, the train should cover a distance of x meters. Now, the time taken by the train to cross a platform of length 100 m is 25 seconds. Hence, the length of the train is 150 m.

Ques:- A man purchased 15 pens, 12 books, 10 pencils and 5 erasers. The cost of each pen is Rs.36, each book is Rs.45, each pencil is Rs.8, and the cost of each eraser is Rs.40 less than the combined costs of pen and pencil. Find the total amount spent?
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2022-09-29 18:50:44:

Solution:

As given, we have,

The cost of one pen = 36 Rs.

So, the cost of 15 pens = 36 × 15 = 540 Rs.

The cost of one book = 45 Rs.

So, the cost of 12 books = 45 × 12 = 540 Rs.

The cost of one pencil = 8 Rs.

So, the cost of 10 pencils = 8 × 10 = 80 Rs.

Now,

the cost of each eraser is 40 Rs. less than the combined costs of pen and pencil.

So,

Combined costs of pen and pencil = 36 + 8 = 44 Rs.

Cost of one eraser = 44 – 40 = 4 Rs.

So, the cost of 5 erasers = 4 × 5 = 20 Rs.

Hence,

The total amount spent is

Hence, the total amount spent is 1180 Rs.

Ques:- If the 3 digit number AB9 is a perfect square then is A an odd digit?
Recent Answer : Added by Shitoshe Wangatia On 2021-12-11 15:07:15:

A perfect square is a square number of a digit. eg 64 is a perfect number, a square of 8
Now digits AB9 is a square number of a number.
AB9 Can also be written as A multiply by B multiply by 9
Get the Square root of AB9
Assumption, A=1, B=1
1*1=1=A, 1*1=1=B Therefore,
Square root of A = A, B = B and 9=3
Therefore
An odd number is a number indivisible by 2.
for example 1,3,5,7…….
Therefore Squares A*B*9= AB9
Where a=1, b=1, 3 as digits.
Conclusion
A=1 is an odd number

Ques:- Two trains are moving in opposite directions at 60 km/hr and 90 km/hr. Their lengths are 1.10 km and 0.9 km respectively. The time taken by the slower train to cross the faster train in seconds is?
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2022-09-29 17:57:30:

Relative speed = 60 + 90 = 150 km/hr.

= 150 x 5/18 = 125/3 m/sec.

Distance covered = 1.10 + 0.9 = 2 km = 2000 m.

Required time = 2000 x 3/125 = 48 sec.
