Fifty minutes ago if it was four times as many minutespast three o'clock, how many minutes is it to six o'clock?
|
OK. Let there be x minutes left for 6'o'clock. Between 3 and 6, we have 180 minutes. So we can also say, that the time is now, 180-x minutes from 3.
Now the question says, 50 minutes ago from (180-x) ..........(180-x-50)
it was four times as many minutes past 3 ...........(4x)
180-x-50 = 4x
x = 26 minutes
Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Mahatma Gandhi, and Albert Einstein. -H. Jackson Brown, Jr., writer

24-05-2005, 07:45 PM
There are 6 people in a group A,B,C,D,E,F whose test scores are as follows out of 100.(names were given in the test which I don;t remember) and the following constraints:
- All but one person scores in the group are squares of integers
-One person's score is equal to the sum of two other persons in the group.
- None got zero marks.
- some B,D,E marks are cubes of integers.
- Some D multiplied by an odd number is an odd number.
- the differance between the scores of D and F is equal to the score of one person in the group.
question given for the above case are :
i) Who got the highest score?
ii)Who got the least score out of the following three??
iii)Whose score is equal to the sum of scores of two persons in the group.
guess many answers r possible

cts ques -

X,Y are standing at one end of the diameter of a circle with diameter 140m. C is standing at the other end.All of them start at the same time. X moves along the diameter and Y and C moves to meet each other along the circular path.
i) If they all meet at a point at the same time, find how much distance is travelled by C if the X and Y travel with the same speed.
ii) If X and Y travel at speeds in the ratio 2:1, and if they all meet at the same time, find after how many seconds, will they meet?
iii) similar question to above....
Some questions are given like, they give two sentences and you have to pick up the third sentence from the multiple choice, which relates to the two sentences....
iam just getting the nswer for the first one as 40 m , is it correct?

how do y and c move, i mean do they move in the same direction or opposite direction
:whatthat: If you think you can, you will.
If you think you can't, you are right !!!
