- Question
Of the following, which is greater than ½ ? Indicate ALL such fractions.
Options- A. 2/5
- B. 4/7
- C. 4/9
- D. 5/11
- Correct Answer
- 4/7
ExplanationOne way to deal with fractions is to convert them all to decimals.
In this case all you would need to do is to see which is greater than 0.5.
Otherwise to see which is greater than ½, double the numerator and see if the result is greater than the denominator. In B doubling the numerator gives us 8, which is bigger than 7.

Correct Answer: 324 m
Explanation:
Clearly, if A runs 600 meters, B runs = 540 m.
? If A runs 400 m, B runs = 540 x 400 / 600 = 540 x 4 / 6 = 90 x 4 = 360 m
Again, when B runs 500 m, C runs = 450 m
? When B runs 360 m, C runs = 450 x 360 / 500 = 45 x 36 / 5 = 9 x 36 = 324 m.
? A beats C by 400 - 324 = 76 m.
Correct Answer: 775
Explanation:
36.98276421 x 21.00002
Using nearest value in whole number for 36.9827421 is 37 and 21.0002 is 21
? 37 x 21 = 777 ? 775
Correct Answer: 1 ?BAC 2
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 0
Explanation:
Unit digit in (6374) 1793 = Unit digit in (4) 1793
= Unit digit in [(42)896 x 4]
= Unit digit in (6 x 4) = 4
Unit digit in (625)317 = Unit digit in (5)317 = 5
Unit digit in (341)491 = Unit digit in (1)491 = 1
Required digit = Unit digit in (4 x 5 x 1) = 0.
Correct Answer: 30
Explanation:
| Speed of the train relative to man | = (63 - 3) km/hr | |||||||
| = 60 km/hr | ||||||||
|
||||||||
|

| = 30 sec. |
Correct Answer: 4 : 3
Explanation:
Let us name the trains as A and B. Then,
(A's speed) : (B's speed) = √b : √a = √16 : √9 = 4 : 3.
Correct Answer: 3 min
Explanation:
| Total distance covered |

Correct Answer: 202860
Explanation:
45 = 5 x 9, where 5 and 9 are co-primes.
Unit digit must be 0 or 5 and sum of digits must be divisible by 9.
Among given numbers, such number is 202860.
Correct Answer: 4155
Explanation:
Let 7589 -x = 3434
Then, x = 7589 - 3434 = 4155
Correct Answer: 55°
Explanation:
At 11 : 50 A.M. from the formula here P = 11 and Q = 50 so required angle is 11 x 50/2 - 30 x 11 = 275 - 330 = -55 or ignoring the negative sign the required angle is 55°
