Ppl Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

C. Monday
A year has 52 weeks and every week has 7 days.
We just add up one day to the present day of the year and that would automatically act as the day of the next year.
In case of leap years in between, one extra day gets added in the entire year making it 366 days instead of 365 days in an ordinary year and we add two days in that case.

q

The series is 15, 16, 34, 105, 424, 2124, 12576
1) (15*1) + 1 = 16
2) (16*1) + 2 = 34
3) (34*3) + 3 = 105
4) (105*4) + 4 = 424
5) (424*5) + 5 = 2125
Clearly, they gave 2124 instead of 2125, so it is the wrong number in the series.

upstream = 25km/hr
downstream=35km/hr
so…if the speed of current would be 5km/hr and boat speed = 30km/hr
so that it will be change towards upstream and downstram…

avg of 10nos.=23==>23*10=230
if each no increased by 4 ==> 4*10=40
then new avg is giveen by : 230+40=270
270/10=27
hence the new avg =27

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.

(b) 16.66%

Earlier for ₹x we could purchase y gm of sugar.
Now we pay ₹1.2x for y gm of sugar

(As there was an increase in price so, x + 20%x = 1.2x)

At current rates for ₹x you can purchase y/1.2 gm of sugar

So the reduced consumption is y-(y/1.2)

Percentage change = (reduced consumption/ original consumption ) *100

That is (0.2/1.2) *100 = 16.66% (approx)

trick
(r/10)*(r/10)
(20/10)*(20/10)
4% decrese

Let the no. of men (originally) be x.
x no. of men require 10 days.

if however there were 10 men less it will take 10 days more for the work to be finished. ——> means x-10 men require 10+10=20 days.

10x = 20 (x-10)
x = 2x -20 => x = 20.

let the speed limit be x.
speed by first rider S1 and 2nd rider be S2.
S1=x+10;
ans S2=x+2*10; and given S2=35.
solving we get x=15mph.
