Quantitative Aptitude

Q. The railway fares of air conditioned sleeper and ordinary sleeper class are in the ratio of 4 :1. The number of passengers travelled by air conditioned sleeper and ordinary sleeper classes were in the ratio 3:25. If the total collection was Rs. 74,000 How much did air conditioner sleeper passengers pay?

a. Rs. 30,000
b. Rs. 20,000
c. Rs. 24,000 
d. Rs. 32,000

Solution :
Railway Fare        = Air - Conditioned   :    Ordinary Sleeper Class
                                            4                  :      1
No of passengers  = Air - Conditioned   :    Ordinary Sleeper Class
                                            3                  :      25
Collection             = Air - Conditioned   :    Ordinary Sleeper Class
                                       4 * 3                 :     1 * 25
                                         12                   :       25
 Sum of the collection = 12 + 25 = 37 which is equivalent to Rs. 74,000
     On equating we get, 1 = Rs.  2000

Hence, Amount received from Air - Conditioned sleeper passengers is 12 * 2,000 = Rs. 20,000

HCF and LCM

HCF and LCM FACTORS / DIVISORS = Numbers that divide any number completely, without leaving any Remainder are its factors. Example : Factors of 72 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72.                    Factors of 90 are 1, ,2, 3, 5 , 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90 MULTIPLES =   Numbers that fall in tables of any given number are its Multiples. Examples  : Multiples of 12 are 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96……                       Multiples of 5 are 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 ….. HIGHEST COMMON FACTOR (H.C.F.) /  GREATEST COMMON DIVISOR (G.C.D.) =   Largest number that divides two or more than two given numbers. Examples : Calculate the  H.C.F. of 45 and 27  Sol : Factors of 45 = 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 45       ...

Digital Sum Balance (D.S.)

A single digit is obtained by adding all the digits of a number is called Digital Sum Balance (D.S.)   Ex :  12 → 1 + 2 → 3 24 → 2 + 4 → 6 21 → 2 + 1  → 3 9876 → 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 → 30 → 3 + 0 → 3 3452 → 3 + 4 + 5 + 2 → 14 → 1 + 4 → 5 Or,  On Dividing the digits by 9, the obtained Remainder is Digital Sum Balance.  Ex :    12    ━━ = 3                9      24 ━━━ = 6      9    3452 ━━━━ =  5      9 KEY HIGHLIGHTS : The range of D.S. always falls from 0 to 9. When we add 9 to a number, its Digital Sum will not change therefore in order to calculate Digital Sum we need to cancel out  all the 9’s.  9 + 1 → 10 → 1 9 + 2 → 11 → 2 9 + 3 → 12 → 3 9 + 4 → 13 → 4 9 + 5 → 14 → 5 9 + 6 → 15 → 6 9 + 7 → 16 → 7 9 + 8 → 17 → 8 9 + 9 → 18 → 9 Example : 123 45 → 6 → Digital Sum ...

CLOCKS (ANGLE)

ANGLES A clock is composed of 360 ° with 12 equal divisions. (i.e. 60 Minutes) The angle between any two consecutive divisions = (360°)/12= 30° or 1 Min = 6 °A Angular value of a minute = (30°)/5= 6° Speed of the hands Each needle of a clock covers the angle of 30 °  to go from one division to the next, but it takes different times to cover this distance. Speed of a second hand = 360° per minute.  Speed of a minute hand = 6° per minute. Speed of an hour hand =1/2 ° per minute.  Example : Q 1. How much degree is covered by minute and hour hand between 02 :00 p.m. to 04 : 00 ? 120 ° and 180 ° 60 ° and 120 ° 120 ° and 60°  60 ° and 720 ° Sol : Between 02: 00 to 04 : 00 = 120 minutes. Distance covered by Hour hand =   120 * ½ = 60 °  Minute hand = 120 * 6 ° = 720 ° = 2 rounds of the clock Q 2.  How much degree is covered by  hour hand between 12 noon to 03 : 45 p.m. ? 112.5 ° 150 ° 90 ° None of these Sol :  Between 12: 00 to 03 : 45 = 3 hours...
