Option 1: 10
Option 2: 15
Option 3: 5
Option 4: 20
Correct Answer: 5
Solution : A = 20% of B ⇒ A = $\frac{1}{5}$ × B ⇒ A : B = 1 : 5 Also, B = 25% of C ⇒ B = $\frac{1}{4}$ × C ⇒ B : C = 1 : 4 = 5 : 20 So, A
Question : Which of the following numbers is divisible by 11?

Solution : The difference between the sum of digits at odd positions and the sum of digits at even positions in a number is 0 or 11 to be divided by 11. 5214341: 5 + 1 + 3 + 1 – (2 + 4 + 4) =
Question : A thief, seeing a policeman from a distance of 400 m, started running at a speed of 16 km/hr. The policeman chased him immediately at a speed of 18 km/hr and the thief was caught. What was the distance run by the thief before he was caught by the policeman?
Option 1: 3200 m
Option 2: 3230 m
Option 3: 3240 m
Option 4: 3220 m
Correct Answer: 3200 m
Solution : Thief's speed = 16 km/hr = $16×\frac{5}{18}=\frac{40}{9}$ m/s Policeman's speed = 18 km/hr = $18×\frac{5}{18}=5$ m/s Required distance = $\frac{\text{Difference × Slower speed}}{\text{Faster speed – Slower speed}}$ So, distance $=\frac{400×\frac{40}{9}}{5-\frac{40}{9}}=400×\frac{40}{9}×\frac{9}{5}=3200$ m Hence, the correct answer is 3200 m.

Question : The reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals of $\frac{6}{5}$ and $\frac{3}{7}$ is:
Option 1: $\frac{57}{18}$
Option 2: $\frac{35}{57}$
Option 3: $\frac{6}{19}$
Option 4: $\frac{57}{35}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{6}{19}$
Solution : Reciprocal of $\frac{6}{5}=\frac{5}{6}$ Reciprocal of $\frac{3}{7}=\frac{7}{3}$ Their sum = $(\frac{5}{6}+\frac{7}{3})=(\frac{5+14}{6} )=(\frac{19}{6} )$ Reciprocal of sum = $\frac{6}{19}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{6}{19}$.
