- Question
Ajay and Vijay have some marbles with them. Ajay told Vijay "if you give me 'x' marbles, both of us will have equal number of marbles". Vijay then told Ajay "if you give me twice as many marbles, I will have 30 more marbles than you would". Find 'x' ?
Options- A. 4
- B. 10
- C. 8
- D. 5
- Correct Answer
- 5
ExplanationIf Vijay gives 'x' marbles to Ajay then Vijay and Ajay would have V - x and A + x marbles.
V - x = A + x --- (1)
If Ajay gives 2x marbles to Vijay then Ajay and Vijay would have A - 2x and V + 2x marbles.
V + 2x - (A - 2x) = 30 => V - A + 4x = 30 --- (2)
From (1) we have V - A = 2x
Substituting V - A = 2x in (2)
6x = 30 => x = 5. - 1. R, U, X, A, D,?

Correct Answer: If only Assumption I is implicit
Explanation:
Here, the manager stresses the need to appoint more subordinate officers. It does mean that present staff is not efficient. In fact, he wants to say that work is much more then the working capacity of present staff strength. Hence, Assumption II is invalid. But Assumption I is implicit because without assuming the availability or subordinate officers, the manager would not have said so.
