Last answer: B Efficiency when both pipes used to fill = A + B And efficiency when Faucet A is used to fill and Faucet B is used to empty the tank = A-B So (A+B)/(A-B)=3/1 A/B+1/(A/B-1)=3/1 A/B+1=3(A/B-1) 3A/B-A/B=4 2A/B=4 A/B=2 Thus, the ratio of efficiency of Faucet A and B =2:1

One roll is taken at random from first vessel and put to second vessel without noticing its color. Now a roll is chosen at random from 2nd vessel. What is the probability of the second roll being a white colored roll? A) 11/13 B) 9/11 C) 13/11 D) 5/12

Last answer: Answer: B) Case 1: first was a white roll Now it is put in second vessel, so total white rolls in second vessel = 4+1 = 5, and total rolls in second vessel = 10+1 = 11 So probability of white roll ... = 5/11+4/11 = 9/11 (added the cases because we want one of these cases to happen and not both)

KTC realizes that the final quotes of the two were in the ratio 3:4. What was the price at which IBM won the bid? A) Rs 7 Lakh B) Rs 4 Lakh C) Rs 3 Lakh D) Rs 1.5 Lakh

Last answer: Answer: C IBM initially quoted Rs 7x lakh. KTC quoted 4x lakh. IBM's final quote =(4x−1) Lakh Thus, (4x-1/4x) = 3/4 = x = 1 IBM's bid winning price = Rs 3 Lakh So IBM wins the bid at 4x−1= Rs 3 lakh.
