1)A printer started its work at 8.15 a.m and ended its work at 9.20 p.m. It was interrupted twice
for the time duration of 42 min. It can print 100 instructions per hour. Approximate how many
instructions it can print?
ANS:
-------
Time duration from 8.15am to 9.20pm = 13 hours 5 min = 785 minutes
stoppage for 2*42 min= 84 min
effective running time = 701 min
in 60 min 100 instructions are printed
in 1 min = 100/60 instructions
in 701 min , we have 701*100/ 60 = 1168.33 instructions
2)Printer A prints 8192 character per min and printer B prints 13862 character per min four
character are equal to one word. Printer A starts at 7:15 am while Printer B starts at 7:29 am then
at what time both will have same no of words printed .
ANS:
-------
"four character are equal to one word"
8192/4*(t+14)=13862/4*t
8192*(t+14)=13862*t yields the same result
t=20.2272 minutes = about 20 min 14 sec
7:49:14 am
3)two glasses were filled with 1/3 and 1/4 milk. they were filled with water &then mixed in
tumbler. what is the percentage of milk in the resultant.
ANS:
-------
total milk =1/3 + 1/4 =7/12
total water = 2/3 + 3/4 = 17/12
total vol = 2
so % of milk =(7/12/2)*100=175/6

ANS:
------
Let small envelopes bought=2x
Large envelopes bought=x
Total No. of envelopes bought=x+2x=3x
Small envelope unused=(12/13)*2x=24x/13
Large envelope unused=(1/6)=x/6
Total envelope unused=(24x/13)+(x/6)=157x/78
Fraction of the total envelope unused=(157x/78)/3x=157/234

part as a scrap...at the end of the day,u have 251 such scraps....from that ,how many soaps can be
manufactured?
ANS:
--------
25scraps.
when we 251/11 we get quo=22(i) rem=9.
1 soap = 11 parts we get 1 scrap.
from 22 soaps we get 22 scraps.
22+9 =31 scraps => 2 soaps(ii)+2scraps+9scraps
2scraps+9scraps = 11scraps = 1 soap(iii).
Total = 22+2+1=25soaps.
