Seema's work = 3 × 10 = 30 hours
Hourly work of Rama = $\frac{1}{20}$
Hourly work of Seema = $\frac{1}{30}$
Combined one hour work of Rama and Seema $=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{30}=\frac{2+3}{60}=\frac{1}{12}$

Correct Answer: 31


Solution : Given:
42 : 20 :: 64 : ?

The pattern is as follows –
Like, 42 : 20→(42 ÷ 2) – 1 = 21 – 1 = 20
Similarly, follow the same pattern for 64 : ?→(64 ÷ 2) – 1 = 32 – 1

Question : In a mixture of 178 litres, the ratio of water and milk is 5 : 7. How much water should be added to make the ratio of water and milk 3 : 4?

Option 1: $3 \frac{17}{24}$ litres

Option 2: $3 \frac{13}{24}$ litres

Option 3: $2\frac{11}{24}$ litres

Option 4: $2\frac{23}{24}$ litres

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $3 \frac{17}{24}$ litres


Solution : Total quantity = 178 litres
Quantity of water = $178 \times \frac{5}{12} = \frac{890}{12}$ litres
Quantity of milk = $178 \times \frac{7}{12} = \frac{1246}{12}$ litres
Now, after adding $x$ litres of water.
$⇒\frac{\frac{890}{12} + x}{\frac{1246}{12}} = \frac{3}{4}$
$⇒\frac{\frac{890+12x}{12}}{ \frac{1246}{12}} = \frac{3}{4}$
$⇒\frac{890+12x}{1246} =

Question : If $\theta$ is an acute angle and $\sin \theta \cos \theta=2 \cos ^3 \theta-\frac{1}{4} \cos \theta$, then the value of $\sin \theta$ is:

Option 1: $\frac{\sqrt{15}-1}{8}$

Option 2: $\frac{\sqrt{15}-1}{4}$

Option 3: $\frac{\sqrt{15}+1}{4}$

Option 4: $\frac{\sqrt{15}-1}{2}$

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{\sqrt{15}-1}{4}$


Solution : Given that 
$\sin \theta \cos \theta=2 \cos ^3 \theta-\frac{1}{4} \cos \theta$
⇒ $\sin \theta=2 \cos ^2 \theta-\frac{1}{4}$
⇒ $\sin \theta=2-2 \sin ^2 \theta-\frac{1}{4}$
⇒ $2 \sin ^2 \theta + \sin \theta=\frac{7}{4}$
Let $\sin\theta=x$
Hence, the Expression becomes:
$8x^2+4x-7=0$
Comparing with $ax^2+bx+c=0$
$a=8, b=4,$ and $c=-7$

Option 1: 1,454

Option 2: 1,425

Option 3: 1,445

Option 4: 1,554

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1,445


Solution : Marked price = INR 1,700
Discount = 15% of marked price
Selling price = 85% of marked price = 0.85 × 1700 = INR 1,445
Hence, the correct answer is 1,445.
