Correct Answer: 195 seconds
Explanation:
Let the time required by x seconds.
Then, More cloth means More time (Direct Proportion)
So, 0.128 : 1 :: 25 : x
=> x = 195.31
So time will be approx 195 seconds
Correct Answer: 45.61 sec
Explanation:

Correct Answer: Rs.220
Explanation:
Let the required Price be Rs. X .Then, Lest toys , Less cost (Direct Proportion)
Therefore 6 : 5 :: 264.37 : x
=> 6 * x = 5 * 264.37
=> X= 220.308
Therefore, Approximate price of 5 toys = Rs. 220
Correct Answer: 32
Explanation:
(Men 14 : 16) : (Hrs/Day 12 : 7) :: 48 : x
14 * 12 * x = 16 * 7 * 48 or x = 32
Correct Answer: 6 hours a day
Explanation:
More Men, Less Hours {Indirect Proportion}
Less Days, More Hours {Indirect Proportion}
=> 15 * 12 * x = 10 * 18 * 6
=>x = 6
Correct Answer: 144
Explanation:
Less toys, Less Price (Direct Proportion)
So, let the price be Rs. x
then,
23:12::276:x => x=(276*12)/23
=> x=144
So price of 12 toys will be Rs. 144
Correct Answer: 48 min. past 12.
Explanation:
Time from 8 a.m. on a day to 1 p.m. on the following day = 29 hours.
24 hours 10 min. of this clock = 24 hours of the correct clock.
hrs of this clock = 24 hours of the correct clock.
29 hours of this clock = hrs of the correct clock
= 28 hrs 48 min of the correct clock.
Therefore, the correct time is 28 hrs 48 min. after 8 a.m.
This is 48 min. past 12.
Correct Answer: (54 + 6/11) past 4
Explanation:
4 o'clock, the hands of the watch are 20 min. spaces apart.
To be in opposite directions, they must be 30 min. spaces apart.
Minute hand will have to gain 50 min. spaces.
55 min. spaces are gained in 60 min
50 min. spaces are gained in min. or
Required time = min. past 4.
Correct Answer: 20 min past 7pm on wednesday
Explanation:
This sunday morning at 8:00 AM, the watch is 5 min. Slow, and the next sunday at 8:00PM it becomes 5 min 48 sec fast. The watch gains min in a time of (7×24)+12 = 180 hours.
To show the correct time, it has to gain 5 min.
5min ->
So the correct time will be shown on wednesday at 7:20 PM
Correct Answer: 11pm
Explanation:
Time from 5 am. on a day to 10 pm. on 4th day = 89 hours.
Now 23 hrs 44 min. of this clock = 24 hours of correct clock.
356/15 hrs of this clock = 24 hours of correct clock
89 hrs of this clock = (24 x 31556 x 89) hrs of correct clock.
= 90 hrs of correct clock.
So, the correct time is 11 p.m.
