Question : A and B can complete a work in 10 days and 15 days, respectively. They got a total of INR 1,250 for that work. What will be B’s share?

Option 1: INR 400

Option 2: INR 500

Correct Answer: INR 500


Solution : Time taken by A to do the work = 10 days
Efficiency of A = $\frac{1}{10}$
Time taken by B to do the work = 15 days
Efficiency of B = $\frac{1}{15}$
A : B = $\frac{1}{10}:\frac{1}{15}=3:2$
Total wage = INR 1250
$\therefore$ Wage

Question : If $\sin \beta=\frac{1}{3},(\sec \beta-\tan \beta)^2$ is equal to:

Option 1: $\frac{3}{4}$

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

Option 3: $\frac{1}{2}$

Option 4: $\frac{1}{3}$

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{1}{2}$


Solution : Given:
$\sin \beta=\frac{1}{3}$
We know that
$ \cos \beta\ =\ \sqrt{1\ -\ \sin^{2}\beta}\ =\ \sqrt{1\ -\ \frac{1}{9}}\ =\ \frac{\sqrt{8}}{3}$
$\Rightarrow \sec \beta\ =\ \frac{1}{\cos \beta}\ =\ \frac{3}{\sqrt{8}}$
$\Rightarrow \tan \beta\ =\ \frac{\sin\beta}{\cos \beta}\ =\ \frac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{\sqrt{8}}{3}}\ =\ \frac{1}{\sqrt{8}}$
Now,
$(\sec \beta-\tan \beta)^2$
$=\ \left ( \frac{3}{\sqrt{8}}\

Question : How many numbers between 400 and 700 are divisible by 5, 6 and 7?

Option 1: 20

Option 2: 10

Option 3: 2

Option 4: 5

Team Careers360 6th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 2


Solution : LCM of 5, 6, and 7 = 210
Quotient when 400 is divided by 210 
⇒ $\frac{400}{210}$ ⇒ 1
Quotient when 700 is divided by 210
⇒ $\frac{700}{210}$ ⇒ 3
Total number of multiples of 210 between 400 and 700 = 3 – 1 =

Question : After allowing a 10% discount on the marked price of an article, a person makes a profit of 16%. If the cost price of the article is INR 648, then its marked price is:

Option 1: INR 910.40

Option 2: INR 835.20

Option 3: INR 751.68

Option 4: INR 826.80

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: INR 835.20


Solution : Given: Cost price of the article = INR 648
Selling price at a profit of 16% = $\frac{\text{100 + profit%}}{100}\times$ Cost price
= $648\times\frac{116}{100}$
= 751.68
Also, Selling price = $\frac{\text{100 - discount%}}{100}\times$ marked price
⇒ $751.68= \frac{90}{100}\times$ marked price
⇒ The marked price
