Question : 8 men can complete a task in 45 days. 8 women can complete the same task in 18 days. In how many days will 5 men and 8 women, together, complete the same task?

Option 1: $13 \frac{1}{5}$

Option 2: $12 \frac{4}{5}$

Option 3: $14 \frac{2}{5}$

Option 4: $15 \frac{3}{5}$

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $14 \frac{2}{5}$


Solution : First, use $M_1D_1= M_2D_2$ Where $M_1$ and $M_2$ are men and women and $D1$ and $D_2$ are days.
$8M\times 45 = 8 W\times 18$
⇒ $5M=2W$
So, $5M + 8W=2W + 8W = 10W$
Now,
$8\times 18 = 10\times D_3$
⇒ $D_3 = \frac{8\times

Question : If $\sqrt3=1.732$, then the value of $\frac{9+2\sqrt3}{\sqrt3}$ is:

Option 1: 7.169

Option 2: 7.196

Option 3: 5.198

Option 4: 7.296

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 7.196


Solution : Given: $\sqrt{3} = 1.732$
$\frac{9+2\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}$
To eliminate the root from the denominator, multiply and divide by $\sqrt{3}$
= $\frac{9+2\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}$ × $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}$
= ${\sqrt{3}×9+\sqrt{3}×2\sqrt{3}}$
= $\frac{\sqrt{3}×9+6}{3}$
= $\frac{3(3\sqrt{3}+2)}{3}$
= $3\sqrt{3}+2$
= $3×1.732+2$
= $7.196$
Hence the correct answer is 7.196.

Question : The angle of elevation of the top of a tower from the top of a building whose height is 680 m is $45^{\circ}$ and the angle of elevation of the top of the same tower from the foot of the same building is $60^{\circ}$. What is the height (in m) of the tower?

Option 1: $340(3 + \sqrt3)$

Option 2: $310(3 - \sqrt3)$

Option 3: $310(3 + \sqrt3)$

Option 4: $340(3 - \sqrt3)$

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $340(3 + \sqrt3)$


Solution :

Let AB be the building and CD be the tower.
AB = DE = 680 m
$\tan 45^{\circ}$ = $\frac{CE}{AE}$
⇒ 1 = $\frac{CE}{BD}$
⇒ CE = BD ------------(i)
$\tan 60^{\circ}$ = $\frac{CD}{BD}$
⇒ $\sqrt3$ = $\frac{CE+DE}{CE}$
⇒ $\sqrt3$ × CE = CE
