Question : If $\frac{2}{3}$ of A = 75% of B = 0.6 of C, then $A:B:C$ is:

Option 1: $2:3:3$

Option 2: $3:4:5$

Option 3: $4:5:6$

Option 4: $9:8:10$

Team Careers360 11th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $9:8:10$


Solution : Given: $\frac{2}{3}$ of A = 75% of B = 0.6 of C
Here, $\frac{2}{3}$ of A = 75% of B
⇒ $\frac{2A}{3}=\frac{75B}{100}$
⇒ $\frac{A}{B}=\frac{9}{8}$
Let A and B be 9 and 8 respectively.
Now, 75% of B = 0.6 of C
⇒ $\frac{75B}{100}=\frac{6C}{10}$
⇒ $\frac{B}{C}

Question : $\triangle$ PQR circumscribes a circle with centre O and radius r cm such that $\angle$ PQR = $90^{\circ}$. If PQ = 3 cm, QR = 4 cm, then the value of r is:

Option 1: 2

Option 2: 1.5

Option 3: 2.5

Option 4: 1

Team Careers360 6th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1


Solution :
PQ = 3 cm, QR = 4 cm
OB = OA = OC = r
Since tangents drawn from a point to the circle are equal,
AQ = QB = $r$
⇒ PA = PC = $3-r$
⇒ RC = RB = $4-r$
