Mathspace Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

x,y sides of rectangle
area=xy
increased by 100% =double length
hence
new area=4xy
increased area=4xy-xy=3xy
percentage of area will be increased
by 300%

we know,
area=b*h
b gets increased by 20% i.e (b+0.20b)
h gets decreased by 20% i.e (h-0.20h)
rewriting the equation(area=b*h),
area=(b+0.20b)*(h-0.20h)
area=b(1+0.20)*h(1-0.20)
area=b(1.20)*h(0.80)
area=b*h*(1.20)*(0.80)
area=b*h*(0.96)
i.e new area=0.96 times the original area
if 100% was the original area,it has decreased to 96%
so,100%-96%= 4%

15/46=0.32

Solution:

life as a boy = 1/4
life as a youth = 1/8
life as an active man = 1/2
sum of life as boy, youth and active man = 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/2 = 7/8
life as an old man = 1 − 7/8 = 1/8
1/8 Wrinkle’s life (as an old man) is 8 years.
and 1/2 = 1/8 *4
So, 1/2 Wrinkle’s Age (as active man) = 8*4 = 32years.

Ans : – 215
Explanation :-
1^3 = 1-1=0
2^3 = 8-1 = 7
3^3 = 27-1=26
4^3 = 64 – 1 = 63
5^3 = 125-1 = 124
Hence, Ans is
6^3 = 216-1=215

1 : 2

1/2:1/3:1/4 = 6:4:3
Ram = 6/13 * 3250 = 1500,
Shyam = 4/13 * 3250 = 1000,
Mohan = 3/13 * 3250 = 750

400%

e.g:-

l = 5 b = 2
Area= l*b =10

New after 100% increament
l=10 b = 4
Area = 10*4

Hi frnds I think U got wrong,
It was said that 4 ends not 4 corners
Here Ends are sides
So there is no way of extending a side
So the answer is incresing the depth

GERMANY
Country Name..

9 its just like popcorn box in cineme everyone take large leaving medium
aside

Profit ratio will be : 4:5:6
5x=150
X=300
X share is 1200
Y share is 1800
Difference will be = x-y =600

“TERMINAL” split it into the half we get “TERM” “INAL”

Now the first half is decreased by one and the next half is
increased by one, so we get:

“SDQLJOBM” (pls note in the ques we have “SDQIJOBM” where
‘L’ shud have come instead of ‘I’)

so “CREDIBLE” is to “BQDCJCMF”
