Lark Laboratories Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

its a tricky question and very funny too.
the answer is 45% only which is gained by the minute hand.

Let length of tunnel is x meter
Distance = 800+x meter
Time = 1 minute = 60 seconds

Speed = 78 km/hr = 78*5/18 m/s = 65/3 m/s

Distance = Speed*Time
=>800+x=653∗60=>800+x=20∗65=1300=>x=1300−800=500

Reduction of 40% or 4/10th in price of bananas will lead to an increase of 4/(10 – 4) = 2/3rd part in quantity if expenditure is constant.
If original quantity is q, then :
2q/3 = 64
=> q = 64 x 3/2 = 96 = 8 dozens.
=> Original price per dozen = 40/8 = Rs 5

P+R=200
Q+R=350

This is more logical …

Let the 1st flag 1 placed at the origin ….
in crossing 8 flags he traveled 7 distances….
s=d/t
=7/8

time for 4 flags t=(d/s)=4/(7/8)=(4*8)/7=4.5714285714285714285714285714286

Speed of train = 54km/hr
= 54 x (5/18) m/s
= 15 m/s
Length of train = 165m
Time required to cross a bridge of 660m in length = (660+165) / 15
= 55 seconds

Mr. Brown painted the first whole house in 6 days plus 1/3 of the second house in the next 2 days. Mr. Black can paint a whole house in 8 days and had 8 days to work, so he painted the equivalent of 1 whole house. That accounts for 2-1/3 houses painted. Mr. Blue only needs to paint 2/3 of the last house, so 2/3 times 12 days equals 8 days.

414 Rs
1.2*37.8=45.36=46 sq.feet
46*9=414 RS

let’s say the Cost Price is 1000x. (CP)
The selling price is also the same as the Cost price. So, here SP=CP (But he sells 950gm instead of 1000gm)

Instead of 1000gm, he is selling 950 grams at the CP. So he sells 050 gms @1000x price. So his net profit is 50gm.
Now 1000gm is 1000x Rs
So, 50gms is 50x rs. [Apllied Unitary Method]

So his profit percentage is:
Profit Percentage Formula: {(Profit/CP)*100%}
So, Here profit is 50x;
CP is 1000x;
so putting the value in the formula we get, Profit Percentage is: (50x/1000x)*100% =(5000x/1000x)%=5%.
