Question : Three persons A, B, and C invested some money in a business. The share of A is twice the share of B, and the share of B is thrice the share of C. After 1 year, they earned INR 6,000. Find the money A received.
Option 1: INR 3,200
Option 2: INR 3,000
Option 3: INR 3,600
Option 4: INR 3,500
Correct Answer: INR 3,600
Solution : Let's denote the shares of A, B, and C as $A$, $B$, and $C$ respectively. Given that the share of A is twice the share of B ⇒ $A=2B$ And, The share of B is thrice the share of C ⇒ $B=3C$ ⇒ $A=2(3C)=6C$
Question : Directions: In a certain code language, FONT is coded as 714, and GLUE is coded as 494. What is the code for JOKE in that code language?
Option 1: 396
Option 2: 400
Option 3: 450
Option 4: 456
Correct Answer: 400
Solution : Given: FONT is coded as 714 and GLUE is coded as 494.
Multiply the sum of the positional value of the first two and last two letters of FONT, to get the required missing code – F→6; O→15; N→14; T→20 (6 + 15) × (14
Question : If $3x+\frac{1}{5x}=7$, then what is the value of $\frac{5x}{(15x^{2}+15x+1)}?$
Option 1: $\frac{1}{5}$
Option 2: $\frac{1}{10}$
Option 3: $\frac{2}{5}$
Option 4: $10$
Correct Answer: $\frac{1}{10}$
Solution : Given: $3x+\frac{1}{5x} =7$ $15x^2 + 1 = 35x$ Adding $15x$ on both sides, we have, $15x^2 + 15x+1=50x$ Putting this value in the required equation, $\frac{5x}{(15x^{2}+15x+1)} = \frac{5x}{50x}$ $=\frac{1}{10}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{1}{10}$.
Question : In plants water is absorbed by the root hairs by a proces called :

Through the mechanism of osmosis, plants are able to take in water and mineral ions from the soil. Water molecules can travel through a membrane that is selectively permeable by a process called osmosis. In this process, water travels
Question : If $\sqrt{33}=5.745$, then the value of $\sqrt{\frac{3}{11}}$ is approximately.
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 0.5223
Option 3: 6.32
Option 4: 2.035
Correct Answer: 0.5223
Solution : Given: $\sqrt{33}=5.745$ $\sqrt{\frac{3}{11}}$ $= \sqrt{\frac{3}{11}}\times\sqrt{\frac{11}{11}}$ $= \sqrt{\frac{33}{121}}$ $= {\frac{\sqrt{33}}{11}}$ Putting the value of $\sqrt{33}$, we have, $=\frac{5.745}{11}$ $= 0.5223$ Hence, the correct answer is 0.5223.
