The dalton school Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

1.75-1.68=0.07

let the total work to be done =1
so a+b+c=1 (say)
then a and b are supposed to do 7/11 th of work
so c= 1- (7/11)
c=4/11
therefore c gets (4/11)*550
=200 is the answer

Let the age of the man be x
Then age of his son becomes (x−24)

2 years later from now,

Age of man will be = x+2
and age of his son will be =(x−24+2)=x−22

According to question,

2(x−22)=x+2

i.e., 2x−44=x+2

i.e., x=46

Therefore ,
Present age of man=46 years
And present age of his son =46−24=22 years

Distance covered by B to meet A=Total distance – Distance covered by A hrs

[using : distance = speed x time]

Putting value of from equation (1),

hrs

Therefore, time at which both A and B will meet is = 7 a.m. + 3 hrs =10 am

According to the question:
⇒(x+5)(y−10)=300
⇒xy+5y−10x−50=xy
⇒5×300​−10x−50=0
⇒−150+x2+5x=0
⇒x2+15x−10x−150=0
⇒x(x+15)−10(x+15)=0
⇒x=10 or −15
Price cannot be negative
So, As x>0,x=10.
