Question : The LCM of $x$ and $y$ is 441 and their HCF is 7. If $x$ = 49 then find $y$.
Option 1: 56
Option 2: 36
Option 3: 65
Option 4: 63
Correct Answer: 63
Solution : Given: LCM of $x$ and $y$ = 441, HCF = 7 and $x$ = 49 Now, LCM × HCF = $x$ × $y$ ⇒ 441 × 7 = 49 × $y$ $\therefore y$ = $\frac{441}{7}$ = 63 Hence, the correct answer is 63.

Question : Two trains A and B having the lengths 195 m and 165 m, respectively, are running in the same direction on parallel lines. If the speeds of A and B are 77 km/h and 85 km/h, respectively, what will be the time (in seconds) taken by them to cross each other?
Option 2: 164
Option 3: 160
Option 4: 166
Correct Answer: 162
Solution : According to the question, Both the trains are running in the same direction then their relative speed will be, Relative speed = Speed of B – Speed of A = 85 km/h - 77 km/h = 8 km/h or $\frac{20}{9}$ m/s Total distance to cross
Question : Direction: The following table shows the production of food grains (in million tonnes) in a state for the period 1999-2000 to 2003-2004. Read the table and answer the question.
The difference between the average production of rice and the average production of barley over the years is (in million tonnes).
Option 1: 50
Option 2: 60
Option 3: 80
Option 4: 40
Correct Answer: 40
Solution : Total production of rice in given years = 270 + 420 + 350 + 400 + 560 = 2000 Total production of barley in given years = 250 + 440 + 320 + 380 + 410 = 1800 Number of years = 5 Required difference
Question : If $\triangle$DEF is right-angled at E, DE = 15, and $\angle$DFE = 60° then, what is the value of EF?
Option 1: $5\sqrt3$
Option 2: $5$
Option 3: $15$
Option 4: $30$
Correct Answer: $5\sqrt3$
Solution : Given: DE = 15 and $\angle$DFE = 60° We know, $\tan\theta$ = $\frac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Base}}$ ⇒ $\tan 60° = \frac{DE}{EF} = \sqrt{3}$ ⇒ EF = $\frac{DE}{\sqrt{3}}$ ⇒ EF = $\frac{15}{\sqrt{3}}$ $\therefore$ EF = $5\sqrt{3}$ Hence, the correct answer is $5\sqrt{3}$.
