Questions and Answers

Q 1 - (0.34-0.24) / (0.32+0.22)

A - 0.05

B - 0.5

C - 0.1

D - 0.09

Answer : A

Explanation

(0.34-0.24) / (0.32+0.22) => (a4-b4) / (a2+b2) = ( a2+b2)( a2-b2)/( a2+b2)
 = a2-b2 
 =(a+b)(a-b) 
 = (0.3 +0.2)(0.3-0.2) = 0.05 

Q 2 - Find the value of (0.4442 + 0.6662 +0.8882).

A - 0.147852

B - 0.049284

C - 1.6222

D - 1.4292

Answer : B

Explanation

 0.4442 + 0.6662 +0.8882 = 0.049284

Q 3 - (0.72 +0.62 +0.52)/(0.072 +0.062 +0.052 )=

A - 210

B - 150

C - 160

D - 100

Answer : D

Explanation

(0.72 +0.62 +0.52)/(0.072 +0.062 +0.052 )= (0.72 +0.62 +0.52)/0.12(0.72 +0.62 +0.52 ) 
 = 1/.01 = 100

Q 4 - The sum of the numerator and denominator of a fraction is 15. If the numerator is increased by 5, the fraction becomes 1/4. Find the fraction.

A - 8/7

B - 7/8

C - 7/9

D - 9/7

Answer : B

Explanation

Let numerator be x
 denominator be y 
 x+y=15... (1) 
 (x+5)/y = 1/4 
 4(x+5) =y 
 4x+20 =y ... (2) 
 Solving equation (1) & (2) we get
 x=7 y=8
 the fraction is 7/8.

Answer : B

Explanation

 
 Given expression is a2 + 2ab + b2  where a = 2.43, b = 7.57 
 = (a+b)2 = (2.43 + 7.57)2 = 102 = 100 

Q 7 - If 0.13 / x2 = 13. What is x?

A - 10

B - .01

C - .1

D - 100

Answer : C

Explanation

   
 0.13 / x2 = 13 
 => 13x2 = 0.13 
 => x2 = 0.13/13 = 13/100 x 1/13 = 1/100 
 => x = 1/10 = .1 

Q 8 - (0.733 + 0.273) / (0.732 + 0.272 - 0.73 x 0.27)= ?

A - 1

B - 0.4827

C - .73

D - 6

Answer : A

Explanation

 As a3 + b3 = (a+b)(a2-ab + b2)    
 Thus (a3 + b3) / (a2-ab + b2)  = a + b  
 ∴ (0.733 + 0.273) / (0.732 + 0.272 - 0.73 x 0.27) = 0.73 + 0.27 = 1
