10. Taps A, B and C are connected to a water tank and the rate of flow of water from them is 42 liter/hr, 56 liter/hr and 48 liter/hr respectively. If tap A and B are filling the tank and C is emptying it and the tank gets filled in 16 hrs. What is the capacity of the tank?
(a) 150 liter
(b) 960 liter
(c) 800 liter
(d) 1200 liter
(e) 500 liter

SOLUTION



1. (a) 873620
Net Population Increase = 6.3-1.8 = 4.5%
Required Population = 800000*1.045*1.045 = 873620

Alternate :-
Net Population Increase = 6.3-1.8 = 4.5%
100----(after 1year)-->104.5 ---> (after 2 year)-->(109.2025)
Now, Unitary method:-
100 ------------becomes---> 109.2025
8,00,000 will become = 109.2025*800000/100 = 873620
More easy as calculation becomes easier :) 

2. (c) 3700,6300
Let CP of first and second be x and y respectively.
ATQ:-
x+y = 10000…(i)
18x/100 – 10y/100 = 36
18x-10y = 3600…(ii)
Solving we get,
x= 3700 and y = 6300

3. (c) 16 days.
2M+5W = 4250/17 = 250/day
7M+8W = 6281/11 = 571/day
Solving, we get M= 45/day, and W = 32/day
Therefore, 6M+9W= 270+288 = 558/day.
In X days they earned 8928.
Therefore, 558*X = 8928
X= 8928/558 = 16 days.

4. (e) 3600 km
Let the speed be X km and actual Time taken = Y hrs.
Distance = XY km
ATQ:-
XY = (X+12)(Y-15).
== > 12Y-15X = 180 or 4Y-5X = 60.
Also, XY = (X-12)(Y+25)== > 25X-12Y = 300
Solving both we get,
X= 48 and Y = 75
Hence, Distance = XY = 48*75 = 3600

5. (c) Rs. 160
Let CP be X, Profit = 50%
SP = 1.5X
1.5X-80 = X
0.5X = 80 or X = 160

6. (e) None of these (2.33 km)
Perimeter = Distance Travelled
== > Distance travelled = Speedx Time = 7x20/60 = 2.33 km

7. (e) 2880
5consonant + 4 vowel = > 5!*4! = 120*24 = 2880

8. (c) 36000
Share of Profit = Amt invested * time
A= 14000x4+ 16000x20 = 376000
B= 12000x2+ 10000x18 = 204000
C= 20000x18 = 360000
Ratio of share = 376:204:360
C’s Share = 94000x360/940 = 36000.

9. (c) 12 years
Let Haritika and harshit age be x and y respectively
xy= 240
2x-4 =y
X(2x-4) = 240
2x^2- 4x-240 = 0
Solving we get x= 12,-20
Hence, Haritika’s age = 12 years.

10. (c) 800 liter
Efficiencies of A , B and C are given
Together they have efficiency = A+B-C= 42+56-48 = 50 liter/hr
Time = 16 hrs
Capacity = 16x50 = 800 liter
