Question : If 45% of a certain number is equal to $\frac{6}{5}$th of another number, what is the ratio between the numbers?

Option 1: 9 : 11

Option 2: 8 : 3

Option 3: 1 : 7

Option 4: 7 : 4

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 8 : 3


Solution : Let the first number as $x$ and the second number as $y$.
According to the question,
$\frac{45x}{100} = \frac{6y}{5}$
$⇒\frac{x}{y} = \frac{6×20}{5×9}$
$\therefore \frac{x}{y} = \frac{8}{3}$
Hence, the correct answer is 8 : 3.

Question : The median of an equilateral triangle is $15 \sqrt{3} \mathrm{~cm}$. What is the side of this triangle?

Option 1: 24 cm

Option 2: 18 cm

Option 3: 30 cm

Option 4: 36 cm

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 30 cm


Solution : Length of median of the equilateral triangle = $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ × side
Let the side of the equilateral triangle be a cm.
Length of median of the triangle = $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ × a
⇒ $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ × a = 15$\sqrt{3}$
$\therefore$ a = 30 cm
Hence, the

Question : Directions: What will come in the place of (?) in the following equation, if + and – are interchanged with ÷ and ×, respectively?
24 – 3 ÷ 4 × 45 + 5 = ?

Option 1: 70

Option 2: 63

Option 3: 72

Option 4: 67

Question : The exterior angles obtained on producing the base $BC$ of a $\triangle ABC$ in both ways are $120^{\circ}$ and $105^{\circ}$, then the vertical $\angle A$ of the triangle is:

Option 1: $36^{\circ}$

Option 2: $40^{\circ}$

Option 3: $45^{\circ}$

Option 4: $55^{\circ}$

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $45^{\circ}$


Solution :
Exterior angles obtained on producing the base $BC$ of a $\triangle ABC$ in both ways are $120^{\circ}$ and $105^{\circ}$.
⇒ $\angle ABC = 180^{\circ} -120^{\circ}=60^{\circ}$
⇒ $ \angle ACB= 180^{\circ}-105^{\circ}=75^{\circ}$
In $\triangle ABC$,
$\angle ABC+\angle ACB+\angle BAC=180^{\circ}$
⇒ $\angle BAC=180^{\circ}-60^{\circ}-75^{\circ}=45^{\circ}$
Hence, the correct answer is
