Correct Answer:
| 1 |
| 5 |
Explanation:
Let x litres of this liquid be replaced with water.
| Quantity of water in new mixture = | ❨ | 3 - | 3x | + x | ❩ | litres |
| 8 |
| Quantity of syrup in new mixture = | ❨ | 5 - | 5x | ❩ | litres |
| 8 |
| ∴ | ❨ | 3 - | 3x | + x | ❩ | = | ❨ | 5 - | 5x | ❩ |
| 8 | 8 |
⟹ 5x + 24 = 40 - 5x
⟹ 10x = 16
| ⟹ x = | 8 | . |
| 5 |
| So, part of the mixture replaced = | ❨ | 8 | x | 1 | ❩ | = | 1 | . |

Correct Answer:
| 5 |
| 12 |
Explanation:
Let E = Event that the sum is a prime number.
| Then E | = { (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 4), (1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 3), (2, 5), (3, 2), (3, 4), (4, 1), (4, 3), (5, 2), (5, 6), (6, 1), (6, 5) } |
∴ n(E) = 15.
| ∴ P(E) = | n(E) | = | 15 | = | 5 | . |
| n(S) | 36 | 12 |
Correct Answer:
| 13 |
| 102 |
Explanation:
| Then, n(S) = 52C2 = | (52 x 51) | = 1326. |
| (2 x 1) |
Let E = event of getting 1 spade and 1 heart.
| ∴ n(E) | = number of ways of choosing 1 spade out of 13 and 1 heart out of 13 |
| = (13C1 x 13C1) | |
| = (13 x 13) | |
| = 169. |
| ∴ P(E) = | n(E) | = | 169 | = | 13 | . |
| n(S) | 1326 | 102 |
Correct Answer: 105 km
Explanation:
Average speed of train = 240/12 = 20 km/h
Average speed of bus = (3/4) x 20 = 3 x 5 = 15 km/h
Required distance = 15 x 7 = 15 km/h

Correct Answer:
| 1 |
| 221 |
Explanation:
| Then, n(S) = 52C2 = | (52 x 51) | = 1326. |
| (2 x 1) |
Let E = event of getting 2 kings out of 4.
| ∴ n(E) = 4C2 = | (4 x 3) | = 6. |
| (2 x 1) |
| ∴ P(E) = | n(E) | = | 6 | = | 1 | . |
| n(S) | 1326 | 221 |
Correct Answer: 1096
Explanation:
[725 x 725 x 725 + 371 x 371 x 371] / [725 x 725 - 725 x 371 + 371 x 371]
= 725 + 371 = 1096
[? (a3 + b3) / (a2 - ab + b2) = (a + b) (a2 - ab + b2)/(a2 - ab + b2) = a + b ]
Correct Answer: 16
Explanation:
4 mat-weavers in 4 days can weave 4 mats.
1 mat-weavers in 4 days can weave 4 / 4 mats.
1 mat-weavers in 1 days can weave 4 / 4 x 4 mats.
8 mat-weavers in 1 days can weave 4 x 8 / 4 x 4 mats.
8 mat-weavers in 8 days can weave 4 x 8 x 8 / 4 x 4 mats.
8 mat-weavers in 8 days can weave 4 x 2 x 2 mats.
8 mat-weavers in 8 days can weave 16 mats.

Required number = (9999 - 55)
= 9944.
Correct Answer: 150 m
Explanation:
Let the length of the train be x metres and its speed by y m/sec.
| Then, | x | = 15 ⟹ y = | x | . |
| y | 15 |
| ∴ | x + 100 | = | x |
| 25 | 15 |
⟹ 15(x + 100) = 25x
⟹ 15x + 1500 = 25x
⟹ 1500 = 10x
⟹ x = 150 m.
