A 727
B 720
C 713
D 187
Answer: C
Explanation:
When divided by 20 remainder is 13. So, if we add 7 and then divide by 13 remainder, remainder will be 0 (as 13+7 becomes 20.
Similarly after adding 7, remainder when divided by 48 becomes 0. Similarly, for 36 it becomes 0.
20 is 4×5
48 is 16x3
36 is 4x9.
The factors are not taken randomly. They are powers of primes.
Common multiple has to be multiple of 16 (highest power of 2); otherwise it will not be multiple of 48.
C is correct choice.

Question 39
Two men—Pand start from two points—X and Y on opposite banks of still river towards Y and X respectively. They meet at 340 m from
one bank 'X' and proceed on their respective onward journey. After that they meet at 170 m from the other bank 'Y' on their return
journey. What is the width of the river?
A 1 km
B 400 km
C 850 km
D 1.5 km
Answer: C
Explanation:
Let the two opposite ends of the river be X and Y and the distance between them be D meters.(i.e., width = D meters)
Let P and Q be the two men starting from the opposite banks(i.e., from X and Y respectively).
I meet :
Therefore, Time taken for P to travel 340m = Time taken for Q to travel (D - 340)
Or 340 / A = (D - 340) / B
II meet :
After crossing spot I, both of them proceed in their respective directions, reach banks and return back to cross each other at Spot II
which is 170m from Y.
From Spot I to Spot II, P would had travelled a distance of (D - 340) + 170 m
From Spot I to Spot II, Q would had travelled a distance of 340 + (D - 170) m
Time taken by P to travel from Spot I to Spot II will be the same as that of Q from Spot I to Spot II
By Cross- Multiplying,
D(D - 850) = 0
D = 850
C is correct choice.

and P on day 3 and so on. In how many days will the project be completed?
A 29/7 days
B 22/7 days
C 34/7 days
D 27/7 days
Answer: D
Explanation:
P, Q and R can do the project in 8, 6 and 12 days respectively.
1 1 3+4 7
So, P and Q can do in 1 day = 8 + 6 = 24 = 24 .
1 1 3+2 5
P and R can do in 1 day = 8 + 12 = 24 = 24 .
1 1 2+1 3 6
Q and R can do in 1 day = 6 + 12 = 12 = 12 = 24 .
7 5 6 24−7−5−6 6 1
After day 3 , work left = (1 − 24 − 24 − 24 ) = 24 = 24 = 4.
7
So, P and Q can do ==> 24 part in 1 day.
1 24 1 6
or, 4 part will do in = 7 × 4 = 7 days.
6 27
So, Total time taken = (3 + 7 ) = 7 days.
