Ques:- When I was married 10 years ago my wife is the 6th member of the family. Today my father died and a baby born to me. The average age of my family during my marriage is same as today. What is the age of Father when he died?

Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:02:07:

let x be the avg age of each person in the family ten years
back…
so total age=6x
after 10 years i.e,now the total age of the family =6x+60
let grand father age as y
then the average of the family=(6x+60-y)/5
(bcoz grand father has expired and the new born baby has no
age at present)
according to the given question (6x+60-y)/5=x
bcoz x is the avg age bfore 10 years.
while calc the equation according to the presnt age we have
to add 10 to the result….
so the answer is 70

Ques:- Three friends divided some bullets equally. After all of them shot 4 bullets the total number of bullets remaining is equal to the bullets each had after division. Find the original number divided?

Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:01:02:

Ans =18
Explanation:
Assume that initial there were 3*X bullets.
So they got X bullets each after division.
All of them shot 4 bullets. So now they have (X – 4)
bullets each.
But it is given that,after they shot 4 bullets each, total
number of bullets remaining is equal to the bullets each
had after division i.e. X
Therefore, the equation is
3 * (X – 4) = X
3 * X – 12 = X
2 * X = 12
X = 6
Therefore the total bullets before division is = 3 * X = 18

Ques:- One half of a two digit number exceeds its one third by 6. Find the sum of the digits of the number?

Recent Answer : Added by Sohini Mitra On 2022-09-02 17:02:37:

Let the number be 10Y+X
(10Y+X)/2 = (10X+Y)/3+6
(10Y+X)(1/2-1/3) = 6
10Y+X = 36
Therefore, sum of the digits = 3+6 = 9

Ans: 9

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

Ques:- The average weight of a group of boys is 30 kg. After a boy of weight 35 kg joins the group, the average weight of the group goes up by 1 kg. Find the number of boys in the group originally ?

Recent Answer : Added by Vivek verma On 2021-08-25 14:15:38:

let no of boys in group is = x
then total sum = 30 * x
after joining one more boys with a weight of 35 kg the total sum is = 30x + 35
after joining the new student the weight will increase 1 kg
so total sum
30x + 35 = 31(x+1)
x = 4

Ques:- Raj has a jewel chest containing Rings, Pins and Ear-rings. The chest contains 26 pieces. Raj has 2 and 1/2 times as many rings as pins, and the number of pairs of earrings is 4 less than the number of rings. How many earrings does Raj have?…

Recent Answer : Added by King11 On 2022-03-18 09:20:21:

6 pairs of earrings. So 12 earrings.

The total has to be 26, so let’s say there’s 6 pairs of earrings and the number of pairs has to be 4 less than the number of rings. So that would make 10 rings. The 10 rings has to be 2 1/2 greater than the number of pins. So you would divide 10/2.5 = 4 Pins. That would equate to a total of 12 earrings, 10 rings, and 4 pins. A total of 26 pieces.

Ques:- 1600 men have provisions for 28 days in the temple. If after 4 days, 400 men leave the temple, how long will the food last now?

Recent Answer : Added by Arya Shesham On 2021-09-01 15:53:07:

Suppose 1 person consumes 1 unit food daily.
So, for 24 days, 1600 person will consume 1600×24 units.
So total units of food available = 1600×24

Now total number of person =1200

So, total food will be consumed by 1200 person in (1600×24)/1200 = 32 days.
