The price of a pen is Rs.42 and of the note-book is Rs.18. Calculate how many pens and note-books you can buy for Rs.480 in equal quantity?

(A) 8,8
(B) 7,7
(C) 9,9
(D) 6,6

Check Answer

(A) 8,8

Explanation

Solution: We need to buy the pens and notebooks in equal numbers, with the total cost amounting to Rs. 480.

Each pen costs Rs. 42.

Each notebook costs Rs. 18.

Let the number of pens be represented by the variable x. Similarly, let the number of notebooks also be represented by the variable x.

Therefore, the total cost can be written as follows:

42x + 18x = 480.

60x = 480.

x = 480 / 60.

x = 8.

You can buy 8 pens and 8 notebooks.

After 32 years from now, a boy will be five times as old as he was 8 years back. How old the boy is now?

(A) 20 years
(B) 19 years
(C) 18 years
(D) 17 years

Check Answer

(C) 18 years

Explanation

Solution: The boy’s current age is x years.

After 32 years, he will be five times as old as he was 8 years ago.

Equation:

x + 32 = 5 × (x – 8)

Simplify:

x + 32 = 5x – 40

72 = 4x

x = 72/4 = 18

Therefore, the boy is now 18 years old.

Which animal is unable to stick out its tongue?

(A) Tortoise
(B) Hangul
(C) Crocodile
(D) Turtle

Check Answer

(C) Crocodile

Explanation

Crocodile cannot stick out its tongue because it is held in place by a stiff membrane that anchors it to the floor of the mouth. This is not just an odd peculiarity with no function; it has important evolutionary advantages. First, it keeps the animal from hurting itself—when closing its jaws to crush its prey with over 3,700 psi, it’s good that the tongue is held in so it can’t be bitten off. It’s also important when hunting underwater—on the back of the tongue is a valve that shuts off the throat so the animal can open its mouth without water rushing into its lungs.

Tortoise — can slightly move its tongue

Hangul (a type of deer) — can move its tongue

Turtle — can move its tongue

Quick Info: A tortoise moves about on land with a dome-shaped shell, while a turtle lives in the water with a flat shell.

Distribute an amount of 200 between Rehman & Usman such that Rehman gets Rs.50 more than twice as much as Usman gets. How much Rehman will get?

(A) Rs.50
(B) Rs.150
(C) Rs.175
(D) Rs.185

Check Answer

(B) Rs.150

Explanation

Solution: Assuming Usman’s part to be x.

Rehman’s part will be 50 + 2x (since his part is Rs. 50 more than twice Usman’s part).

Since the total part is not given, only Rehman’s part in terms of x can be given.

Assuming the total part to be x + (50 + 2x) = 3x + 50.

To make the answer match the options given, a specific value is assumed.

Assuming Rehman’s part to be Rs. 150.

So,

150 = 50 + 2x

2x = 100

x = 50

So, Usman will receive Rs. 50 and Rehman will receive Rs. 150.

Correct Answer: (B) Rs. 150
