- Question
- In a school, MID-Day meal food is sufficient for 250 students for 33 days. if each students is given 125 g meals. 80 more students joined the school. If same amount of meal is given to each student, then the food will last for
Options- A. 20 days
- B. 40 days
- C. 30 days
- D. 25 days
- Correct Answer
- 25 days
ExplanationM1 = 250, D 1 = 33 days
per day meal W1 = W2 = 125 g
M2 = (250 + 80) =330 and D2=?
According to the formula
M1D1W2 = M2D2W1
250 x 33 x 125 = 330 x D2x 125
? D2 = (250 x 33)/330

Correct Answer: 6
Explanation:
Efficiency of Kavita = 5%
Efficiency of Babita = 1.66%
Efficiency of Samita = 3.33%
Work done in 5 days by K + B + S = 5 x 10 = 50%
Work done in 3 days by K + B = 3 x 6.66 = 20%
Remaning work (30%) done by Kavita alone = 30/5 = 6 days
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
Efficiency of Kareena and Krishna = 11.11 + 5.55 = 16.66%
Work done in 3 days = 3 x 16.66 = 50%
Rest work done by Kareena, Krishna and Shahid = 50/50 = 1 day
(Since efficiency of Shahid = 33%)
Thus in ( 3 + 1) days they have completed the work = 4 days.
Correct Answer: 41/3
Explanation:
Krishna's efficiency = 10%
Mohan's efficiency = 5%
Work done by Krishana and mohan together in 3 days = 15 x 3 = 45%
Now, number of days in which B completed rest (55%) work alone = 55/5 = 11
Total No. of days in which B worked = 3 + 11 = 14
Now No. of days required by B, when A and B both worked together = 100/15 = 62/3
? Required difference in No. of days = (11) - (62/3)
= 13/3 = 4 1/3 days
Correct Answer: 11
Explanation:
Efficiency (Asha : Usha) = 5 : 4
Number of days(Asha : Usha) = 4x : 5x = 4x : 25
? Number of days required by Asha to finish the work alone = 4x
= 4 x 5 = 20.
Now, since Asha and Usha did work together for last 5 days = 5 x 9 = 45%
(since efficiency of Asha = 5% and Usha's efficiency = 4%)
It means Asha completed 55% work alone.
? No. of days taken by Asha to complete 55% work = 55/5 = 11days
Correct Answer: 300, 200, 250
Explanation:
A's 5 day work = 50%
B's 5 day work = 33.33%
C's 2 day work = 16.66% [100 - (50 + 33.33)]
Ratio of contribution of work of A , B and C = 50 : 33.33 : 16.66 = 3 : 2 : 1
A's total share = Rs. 1500
B's total share = Rs. 1000
C's total share = Rs. 500
A's one day's earning = Rs. 300
B's one day's earning = Rs. 200
and C's one day's earning = Rs. 250
Correct Answer: 50
Explanation:
Let the original number of men = N
Time taken by N = 80 days
Now, (N - 10) men can finish the work in the (80 + 20) = 100 days
Here, M1 = N, M2 = (N - 10), D1 = 80 and D2 = 100
According to the formula.
M1D1 = M2D2
? N x 80 = 100 x (N - 10)
? 8N = 10N - 100
? 10N - 8N = 100
? N = 50
Correct Answer: 37/11 days
Explanation:
A's 1 days 's work = 1/8
B ' s 1 days ' s = 1/10
C ' s day 's work = 1/20
(A + B + C)'s 1 days 's work = 1/8 + 1/10 + 1/20 = (5 + 4 + 2)/40 = 11/40
? (A + B + C ) can finish the work in 40/11 days or 3 7/11 days.
Correct Answer: 60 days
Explanation:
10 day's work by 15 men = 10/210 = 1/21
At the end of every 10 days 15 additional men are employed i.e., for the next 10 days we have 15 + 15 = 30 men
? Next 10 day's work by 30 men = 2/21
Hence in 20 days only (1/21 + 2/21) = 3/21 work is completed
To complete the whole work we have to reach the value of (21/21) work.
Now, (1/21) + (2/21) + (3/21) + ......... (6/21) = 21/21 = 1
Hence total time to complete the whole wok 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 60 days
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
Ramesh alone finish 1/2of the work in 10 days.
Remaining 1/2 of the job was finished by Ramesh and Dinesh together in 2 days.
Therefore, they both together can finish the complete job in 4 days.
Correct Answer: 60 days
Explanation:
(A + B)'s 20 day's work = (20 x 1/30) = 2/3
Remaining work = (1 - 2/3) = 1/3
1/3 work is done by A in 20 days
Whole work can be done by A in (3 x 20) days = 60 days.
