Understanding the Seating Arrangement
To solve the seating arrangement, we need to analyze the clues provided and visualize the setup clearly.
Step-by-Step Analysis
1. Clue 1: A is in front of E, who is facing North.
- A faces South (since E faces North).
2. Clue 2: B is between G and D but not in front of F or I.
- This means B can either face North or South.
3. Clue 3: F is a neighbor of A and H.
- F must be positioned next to A, either in the same row or in front of A.
4. Clue 4: C is 4th left to A and is in front of J.
- This indicates that the arrangement allows enough space for C to be positioned correctly relative to A.
Seating Arrangement Visualization
- Row 1 (North-facing): E, J, C, (space for D), B, G
- Row 2 (South-facing): A, F, H, (space for I), D, B
Determining Directions
- E, J, C, D, and B are confirmed to face North.
- A, F, H, and G must face South.
- I's direction cannot be determined yet but can be assumed to maintain the balance of people.
Conclusion
The people sitting in one particular direction, facing North, are:
- E, J, C, D, and B (Option B).
The people sitting facing South are:
- A, F, H.
Thus, the correct answer is Both (B) and (C), as they represent distinct groups facing the same direction.
In summary, option ‘D’ indicates that both groups of people (North and South facing) hold valid positions in the arrangement.

Explanation:

Given Information:
- A is sitting in front of E, who is facing north.
- B is sitting between G and D but neither in front of F nor I.
- F is a neighbour of A and H.
- C is 4th left to A and is sitting in front of J.

Analysis:
- Since A is sitting in front of E and E is facing north, A must be facing south.
- From point 4, C is 4th left to A, so A must be sitting at the end of a row.
- Since B is not in front of F or I, and D is between G and B, B must be sitting opposite to F or I.
- From point 3, F is a neighbour of A and H, so F must be sitting next to A.
- From the above information, we can determine the seating arrangement as follows:
- Row 1 (facing north): E, ?, ?, ?
- Row 2 (facing south): A, F, H, C, J

Answer:
Since there is not enough information given to determine who sits opposite to I, the answer is Insufficient information.

Shanaya Dey answered
Answer:

Given Information:
- Prachi walks 10 m towards the south.
- Prachi then turns left and walks 5 m.
- Prachi turns left again and walks for the same distance.
- Rishabh walks 5 m towards the east.
- Rishabh turns right and walks 3 m.
- Rishabh turns right again and walks 4 m.
- Rishabh turns left and walks 2 m more.

Explanation:
To determine the direction of the shadows, let's analyze the movements of Prachi and Rishabh separately.

Prachi's Movements:
1. Prachi starts by walking 10 m towards the south.
2. Then Prachi turns left and walks 5 m.
3. Prachi turns left again and walks for the same distance.

Prachi's final position is 10 m south and 5 m west from the starting point. Therefore, Prachi will observe her shadow on the left side.

Rishabh's Movements:
1. Rishabh walks 5 m towards the east.
2. Rishabh turns right and walks 3 m.
3. Rishabh turns right again and walks 4 m.
4. Rishabh turns left and walks 2 m more.

Rishabh's final position is 5 m east and 5 m north from the starting point. Therefore, Rishabh will observe his shadow on the right side.

Conclusion:
Based on the above analysis, the answer is option 'A' - Prachi's shadow will be on Rishabh's left side, and Rishabh's shadow will be on Prachi's right side.

Mansi Mishra answered
Understanding the Hierarchy
To determine V's designation, we need to analyze the information provided step by step.
Employees and Their Designations
- There are eight designations in the company, arranged in descending order of seniority:
- Executive Director
- Director
- VP
- AVP
- Senior Manager
- Manager
- Team Lead
- Associate
Key Information
- Q is either the Senior Manager or Manager.
- P is senior to V, who is senior to U.
- There are two designations between T and U.
- R is four posts senior to V.
- P is junior to at least two members in the company.
- S is senior to W, with an equal number of persons senior to S and junior to W.
Breaking Down the Information
1. Q's Position: Since Q can be either Senior Manager or Manager, we will keep this in mind.
2. P, V, and U's Relationship: P > V > U indicates P is senior to V, and V is senior to U.
3. R's Seniority: R is four posts senior to V, which places R at least at the AVP level if V is at the Associate level.
4. P's Position: Since P is junior to at least two members, P cannot be at the top two levels.
5. S and W's Relationship: S is senior to W, and the number of people senior to S equals those junior to W, indicating a balanced hierarchy.
Conclusion for V's Designation
Based on the deductions:
- If V is the Manager, then R must be the VP, and P can be the Senior Manager.
- If V were to be the Senior Manager, it would contradict R being four posts senior.
Thus, the only feasible position for V, fitting all criteria, is Manager (option C).

A rectangular bed sheet has an area of 120 sq. m and the perimeter of the bedsheet is 46 m. Find the length of the diagonal of the bedsheet.

    15 m
  • b)
    14 mm
  • c)
    17 m
  • d)
    16 m
  • e)
    None of the above
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Maya Kaur answered
To find the length of the diagonal of the bedsheet, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

Let's assume the length of the bedsheet is 'l' and the width is 'w'.

Given that the area of the bedsheet is 120 sq. m, we can write the equation:

l * w = 120

We are also given that the perimeter of the bedsheet is 46 m. Since the perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula:

2(l + w), we can write the equation:

2(l + w) = 46

Now we have a system of two equations with two variables. We can solve this system to find the values of 'l' and 'w'.

Solving the first equation for 'w', we get:

w = 120 / l

Substituting this value of 'w' into the second equation, we get:

2(l + 120 / l) = 46

Multiplying both sides by 'l' to eliminate the fraction, we get:

2l^2 + 240 = 46l

Rearranging the equation, we get a quadratic equation:

2l^2 - 46l + 240 = 0

We can solve this quadratic equation by factoring or using the quadratic formula. Factoring the equation, we get:

(l - 6)(2l - 40) = 0

Setting each factor equal to zero, we get two possible values for 'l':

l - 6 = 0 or 2l - 40 = 0

Solving these equations, we get:

l = 6 or l = 20

Since the length cannot be 6 m (as it would result in a width of 20 m, which is greater than the perimeter), we can conclude that the length of the bedsheet is 20 m.

Now, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the diagonal. In a rectangle, the diagonal, length, and width form a right triangle.

Using the formula:

diagonal^2 = length^2 + width^2

We can substitute the values:

diagonal^2 = 20^2 + 120^2
diagonal^2 = 400 + 14400
diagonal^2 = 14800

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

diagonal ≈ 121.60 m

Rounding to the nearest meter, the length of the diagonal is approximately 122 m, which is not an option given in the answer choices.

Therefore, none of the provided answer choices are correct.

Aditya Ghoshal answered
Direction of city M with respect to city Z:

To determine the direction of city M with respect to city Z, we need to analyze the given information and the relative positions of the cities.

Step 1: Analyze the given information
- City A is 10 km to the north of city K.
- City K is 10 km to the west of city M.
- City J is 5 km to the south of city M.
- City R is 5 km to the west of city J.
- City T is 5 km to the south of city K.
- City B is 15 km to the north of city M.
- City Y is 10 km to the south of city P.
- City P is 5 km to the south of city Z.
- City Z is 10 km to the east of city B.

Step 2: Determine the relative positions of city M and city Z
- City K is located to the west of city M.
- City P is located to the north of city Z.
- City Z is located to the east of city B.

Based on the given information, we can conclude that city M is located between city K and city P, and city Z is located to the east of city B.

Step 3: Determine the direction of city M with respect to city Z
- City B is located to the north of city M.
- City Z is located to the east of city B.

Since city M is located north of city B and city Z is located east of city B, we can determine that city M is located in the southwest direction with respect to city Z.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C) South-west.

Given Information:
- There are eight persons - P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, and W.
- They are sitting around a circular table facing the inside of the table.
- Q and R sit third to the left of U.
- U sits second to the right of W and adjacent to S.
- S does not sit opposite to Q.
- P sits adjacent to both T and V.
- V does not sit adjacent to R.

Step-by-Step Solution:
To find out who sits immediately left of V, let's analyze the given information:

1. From the information that Q and R sit third to the left of U, we can determine the possible positions of U, Q, and R:
- If U sits at position 1, then Q will sit at position 5 and R at position 8.
- If U sits at position 2, then Q will sit at position 6 and R at position 1.

2. From the information that U sits second to the right of W and adjacent to S, we can determine the possible positions of U, W, and S:
- If U sits at position 1, then W will sit at position 3 and S at position 2.
- If U sits at position 2, then W will sit at position 4 and S at position 3.

3. From the information that S does not sit opposite to Q, we can conclude that S cannot sit at positions 5 or 6.

4. From the information that P sits adjacent to both T and V and V does not sit adjacent to R, we can determine the possible positions of P, T, and V:
- If P sits at position 1, then T will sit at position 2 and V at position 8.
- If P sits at position 2, then T will sit at position 3 and V at position 1.
- If P sits at position 3, then T will sit at position 4 and V at position 2.
- If P sits at position 4, then T will sit at position 5 and V at position 3.
- If P sits at position 5, then T will sit at position 6 and V at position 4.
- If P sits at position 6, then T will sit at position 7 and V at position 5.
- If P sits at position 7, then T will sit at position 8 and V at position 6.
- If P sits at position 8, then T will sit at position 1 and V at position 7.

5. Combining the above information, we can create the following possibilities:
- U sits at position 1, W at position 3, S at position 2, Q at position 5, R at position 8, P at position 2, T at position 3, and V at position 1.

  • b)
    10%
  • c)
    15%
  • d)
    20%
  • e)

Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Rajdeep Verma answered

Calculation of Profit Percentage:

1. Cost Price (CP) of 1 coffee maker:
Total cost of 15 coffee makers = Rs. 31500
Cost of 1 coffee maker = Rs. 31500 / 15 = Rs. 2100

2. Cost Price (CP) of 1 coffee maker after repair:
Cost of repair for 1 coffee maker = Rs. 500
Total cost after repair = Rs. 2100 + Rs. 500 = Rs. 2600

3. Total Cost Price (CP) for 15 coffee makers:
Total CP for 15 coffee makers = Rs. 2600 x 15 = Rs. 39000

4. Selling Price (SP) of 15 coffee makers:
Total selling price for 15 coffee makers = Rs. 46800

5. Profit:
Profit = SP - CP
Profit = Rs. 46800 - Rs. 39000 = Rs. 7800

6. Profit Percentage:
Profit Percentage = (Profit / CP) x 100
Profit Percentage = (7800 / 39000) x 100 = 20%

Therefore, the profit percentage is 20% for the shopkeeper. Hence, option 'D' is the correct answer.

    42 ∶ 84
  • b)
    44 ∶ 110
  • c)
    36 ∶ 72
  • d)
    39 ∶ 91
  • e)
    None of these
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Given Data:
- Stipend for boys: Rs. 4500
- Stipend for girls: Rs. 3800
- Stipend for each student: Rs. 4000

Solution:
Let the number of boys selected be 'x' and the number of girls selected be 'y'.
- Total stipend for boys = 4500x
- Total stipend for girls = 3800y
- Total stipend for all students = 4000(x + y)
Since the total stipend for all students is the same, we can write the equation as:
4500x + 3800y = 4000(x + y)
Solving the above equation, we get:
500x = 200y
x = 2y
Therefore, the ratio of boys to girls selected for the internship is 2:1.
Hence, the correct answer is option B) 44:110.

- Since the average weight of the class is 35 kg, the total weight of the class without the teacher would be (35 * x) kg.

Finding the total weight of the class with the teacher:
- Since the average weight of the class increases by 1 kg when the teacher's weight is included, the new average weight of the class is (35 + 1) = 36 kg.
- The total weight of the class with the teacher would be (36 * (x + 1)) kg.

Finding the weight of the teacher:
- The weight of the teacher is given as 56 kg.

Equating the total weights:
- Since the total weight of the class without the teacher is equal to the total weight of the class with the teacher, we can set up the equation as follows:
(35 * x) = (36 * (x + 1)) - 56

Solving the equation:
- Expanding the equation, we get:
35x = 36x + 36 - 56
35x - 36x = -20
-x = -20

Simplifying the equation, we find that:
- Divide both sides by -1:
x = 20

Therefore, the number of students in the class is 20.
Hence, the correct answer is option C: 20.

Age of Umesh will be 4 times the age of Reena in 6 years from today. If ages of Umesh and Mahesh are 7 times and 6 times the age of Reena respectively, what is present age of Umesh?
  • a)
    64 years
  • b)
    30 years
  • c)
    48 years
  • d)
    42 years
  • e)
    52 years
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

To solve this problem, we can start by setting up equations for the given information. Let's assign variables to the ages of Umesh, Reena, and Mahesh.

Let's say the present age of Reena is R years.
According to the given information:
The present age of Umesh is 7 times the age of Reena, so the present age of Umesh is 7R years.
The present age of Mahesh is 6 times the age of Reena, so the present age of Mahesh is 6R years.

Now, let's consider the information given about the future age of Umesh.
The age of Umesh in 6 years will be 4 times the age of Reena in 6 years.
In 6 years, Reena's age will be R + 6 years.
So, Umesh's age in 6 years will be 4 times (R + 6).

Setting up the equation:
7R + 6 = 4(R + 6)

Solving the equation:
7R + 6 = 4R + 24
7R - 4R = 24 - 6
3R = 18
R = 6

So, the present age of Reena is 6 years.

Now, we can find the present age of Umesh:
Umesh's present age = 7R = 7 * 6 = 42 years.

Therefore, the present age of Umesh is 42 years. Option D is correct.

Akanksha Patel answered
The given series is: 26, 32, 58, 90, ?, 238, 386

To find the missing number, let's analyze the pattern in the given series.

1. Difference between consecutive terms:
- The difference between the first two terms is 32 - 26 = 6.
- The difference between the second and third terms is 58 - 32 = 26.
- The difference between the third and fourth terms is 90 - 58 = 32.
- The difference between the fourth and fifth terms is unknown.
- The difference between the fifth and sixth terms is 238 - 90 = 148.
- The difference between the sixth and seventh terms is 386 - 238 = 148.

2. Observation of the differences:
- The differences between consecutive terms are increasing by 20 each time.
- The first difference is 6, the second difference is 26, and the third difference is 32.
- The fourth difference is unknown.

3. Finding the missing number:
- We can assume that the fourth difference will be 32 + 20 = 52.
- To find the missing number, we need to add this fourth difference to the previous term.
- Therefore, the missing number is 90 + 52 = 142.

Hence, the missing number in the series is 142.

The options given are:
a) 110
b) 130
c) 148
d) 160
e) 150

Among these options, option 'C' (148) is the correct answer as it matches the pattern observed in the series.

    480 cm3
  • b)
    620 cm3
  • c)
    720 cm3
  • d)
    540 cm3
  • e)
    None of these
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Kabir Verma answered
Let the height of the cuboid = 5a
And the breadth of the cuboid = 5a * 160/100 = 8a
And the length of the cuboid = 8a * 3/2 = 12a
2 * 5a * (8a + 12a) = 200
10a * 20a = 200
a2 = 1
a = 1
The length of the cuboid = 12 * 1 = 12 cm
The breadth of the cuboid = 8 * 1 = 8 cm
The height of the cuboid = 5 * 1 = 5 cm
Therefore, volume of the cuboid = 12 * 8 * 5 = 480 cm3

K ≥ D ≥ T
R

Conclusions:
I) R ≤ H
II) T

Explanation:

To find the conclusion that is definitely true, let's analyze the given statements and conclusions.

Statement 1: H ≥ L > K ≥ P
This statement indicates the relationship between four elements: H, L, K, and P. It states that H is greater than or equal to L, L is greater than K, and K is greater than or equal to P.

Statement 2: K ≥ D ≥ T
This statement indicates the relationship between three elements: K, D, and T. It states that K is greater than or equal to D, and D is greater than or equal to T.

Statement 3: R
This statement simply mentions the element R without any relationship or comparison.

Conclusion I: R ≤ H
This conclusion states that R is less than or equal to H. However, there is no information or relationship given in the statements about the comparison between R and H. We cannot determine if R is less than or equal to H based on the given information. Therefore, conclusion I is not definitely true.

Conclusion II: T
This conclusion states that T is true. However, there is no information or relationship given in the statements about T. We cannot determine if T is true or false based on the given information. Therefore, conclusion II is not definitely true.

Therefore, neither conclusion I nor conclusion II is definitely true. The correct answer is option (d) Neither conclusion I nor II is true.

In each of the following questions, the relationship between different elements is shown in the statements followed by two conclusions. Find the conclusion which is definitely true.

Given Statements:
G > A > M ≥ H
M > Z ≥ X
L ≥ G

Conclusion I: X
Conclusion II: L > H

To determine the true conclusion, let's analyze the given statements step by step:

Step 1: G > A > M ≥ H
From this statement, we can infer that G is greater than A, A is greater than M, and M is greater than or equal to H.

Step 2: M > Z ≥ X
From this statement, we can infer that M is greater than Z, and Z is greater than or equal to X.

Step 3: L ≥ G
This statement tells us that L is greater than or equal to G.

Now let's analyze the conclusions:

Conclusion I: X
Conclusion II: L > H

Analyzing Conclusion I: X
From the given statements, we know that Z is greater than or equal to X. However, we cannot definitively determine the relationship between X and H. Therefore, Conclusion I is not definitely true.

Analyzing Conclusion II: L > H
From the given statements, we know that L is greater than or equal to G, and G is greater than A, and A is greater than M, and M is greater than or equal to H. Therefore, we can conclude that L is definitely greater than H. Hence, Conclusion II is definitely true.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 'E' - Both conclusions I and II are true.

Sharmila Yadav answered
Pattern Analysis:
To find the missing number in the given series, we need to identify the pattern followed by the numbers.

The given series is: 3, 2, 3, 6, ?, 37.5, 115.5

Step 1: Difference Analysis
Let's find the differences between consecutive numbers in the series:
- The difference between the first and second numbers is -1.
- The difference between the second and third numbers is +1.
- The difference between the third and fourth numbers is +3.

Step 2: Identify the Pattern
By analyzing the differences, we can conclude that the pattern is not linear. It is not a simple arithmetic progression where the difference between consecutive terms remains constant.

Step 3: Alternative Analysis
Since the pattern is not linear, let's consider alternative ways to analyze the series.

Step 3.1: Product Analysis
Let's find the ratio between consecutive numbers in the series:
- The ratio between the first and second numbers is 3/2 = 1.5.
- The ratio between the second and third numbers is 2/3 ≈ 0.6667.
- The ratio between the third and fourth numbers is 3/6 = 0.5.

Step 3.2: Product Analysis - Continued
By analyzing the ratios, we can see that the pattern is not a simple geometric progression either, where the ratio between consecutive terms remains constant.

Step 3.3: Multiply and Divide Analysis
Let's try multiplying and dividing the numbers in different ways to see if we can find a pattern:
- 3 x 2 = 6
- 2 x 3 = 6
- 3 x 6 = 18
- 6 x 6 = 36

By analyzing the products, we can see that the pattern is not as simple as multiplying or dividing by a constant factor.

Step 3.4: Multiply and Divide Analysis - Continued
Let's try another approach by dividing the numbers in different ways to see if we can find a pattern:
- 3 ÷ 2 ≈ 1.5
- 2 ÷ 3 ≈ 0.6667
- 3 ÷ 6 = 0.5
- 6 ÷ 6 = 1

By analyzing the divisions, we can observe that the pattern is not as simple as dividing by a constant factor either.

Step 4: Combining Patterns
By carefully analyzing the series using different approaches, we can conclude that the pattern may involve a combination of operations.

Step 4.1: Multiply and Divide Pattern
By analyzing the series further, we can observe the following pattern:
- The first number is obtained by multiplying the second number by 1.5 (2 x 1.5 = 3).
- The second number is obtained by dividing the first number by 1.5 (3 ÷ 1.5 = 2).
- The third number is obtained by multiplying the second number by 1.5 (2 x 1.5 = 3).
- The fourth number is obtained by multiplying the third number by 2 (3 x 2 = 6).

Sameer Yadav answered

Calculation:
784 ÷ 14 = 56
1728 ÷ 12 = 144

Finding the missing value:
Let the missing value be x.
Now, x = 70% of 1600.
x = 0.7 * 1600
x = 1120

Therefore, the missing value is 1120.

Options comparison:
a) 820
b) 720
c) 1000
d) 920
e) None of these

Since the calculated missing value is 1120, option d) 920 is the correct answer.

    Grandmother
  • c)
    Paternal aunt
  • d)
    Paternal uncle
  • e)
    Maternal aunt
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Explanation:

Given Information:
- D is the father of A.
- A is the spouse of B.
- C is the only daughter of D.
- K is the daughter of B and granddaughter of M.
- M is not the parent of B.

Relationship Analysis:
- Since D is the father of A and C is the only daughter of D, C is the sister of A.
- A is the spouse of B, so K is the daughter of B.
- Since M is not the parent of B, M must be the parent of A.
- Therefore, K is the granddaughter of M and the daughter of B.

Relationship between C and K:
- C is the sister of A.
- A is the parent of K.
- So, C is the paternal uncle (aunt) of K.
Therefore, C is related to K as the paternal uncle (aunt).

Tarun Nambiar answered
Given Information:
- A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and I are nine houses.
- C is 2 km East of B.
- A is 1 km North of B.
- H is 2 km South of A.
- G is 1 km West of H.
- D is 3 km East of G.
- F is 2 km North of G.
- I is situated just in the middle of B and C.
- E is just in the middle of H and D.

To Find:
The distance between A and F.

Solution:
To find the distance between A and F, we need to determine the locations of A and F first.

Step 1: Determine the location of A
- A is 1 km North of B.
- From the given information, we know that C is 2 km East of B.
- Therefore, A is 1 km North and 2 km West of C.
- This means A is located 1 km North and 2 km West of the midpoint of B and C.

Step 2: Determine the location of F
- F is 2 km North of G.
- G is 1 km West of H.
- H is 2 km South of A.
- Therefore, F is 2 km North, 1 km West, and 2 km South of A.
- This means F is located 2 km South and 1 km West of A.

Step 3: Calculate the distance between A and F
- A is 1 km North and 2 km West of the midpoint of B and C.
- F is 2 km South and 1 km West of A.
- Therefore, the distance between A and F can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem.
- Distance = sqrt((2 km)^2 + (1 km)^2)
- Distance = sqrt(4 km^2 + 1 km^2)
- Distance = sqrt(5 km^2)
- Distance = 2.236 km (approx)
- The distance between A and F is approximately 2.236 km.

Therefore, the correct answer is option (b) 1.41 km.

Ishita Nair answered
Problem: Eight persons P, Q, R, S, T, U, V and W are sitting around a circular table facing inside the centre of the table. Only one person sits Q and R who sits third to the left of U. U sits second to the right of W and sits adjacent to S who doesn’t sit opposite to Q. P sits adjacent to both T and V who doesn’t sit adjacent to RQ. How many persons sit between P and U when counted from the right of U?

Solution:
Given information:
- There are 8 persons: P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, and W.
- They are sitting around a circular table facing inside the centre of the table.
- Q and R sit on the table.
- R sits third to the left of U.
- U sits second to the right of W.
- U sits adjacent to S who doesn’t sit opposite to Q.
- P sits adjacent to both T and V.
- T and V doesn’t sit adjacent to RQ.

Step 1: Draw the circular table and mark the positions of U, W, S, Q, and R.

Step 2: Use the given information to make some deductions:
- As only one person sits Q and R, Q cannot sit adjacent to R.
- R sits third to the left of U, which means U, R, and two more persons sit in a row. So, R cannot sit adjacent to S or P.
- U sits adjacent to S but not opposite to Q. So, Q cannot sit adjacent to U or S.
- P sits adjacent to both T and V, but they don’t sit adjacent to RQ. So, P can sit in two possible locations: either between U and T or between U and V.

Step 3: Consider the two possible locations of P and count the number of persons between P and U when counted from the right of U.
- If P sits between U and T, then there are two persons between P and U: V and W.
- If P sits between U and V, then there are two persons between P and U: T and S.

Step 4: Hence, there are two persons between P and U when counted from the right of U.

Answer: Option (d) Two.

Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below.
Five persons- C, D, J, K, and M paid different amounts for rent. Only one person paid the rent less than J. C paid more than J but did not pay the highest amount. M paid less than C but not less than D. The one who paid the third highest amount paid Rs.7500 which is three times the rent paid by the one who paid the lowest amount for rent.
Q. Who among the following person paid the lowest rent?
  • a)
    K
  • b)
    J
  • c)
    D
  • d)
    M
  • e)
    None of the above
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Analysis:
The given information can be summarized as follows:
- C paid more than J but did not pay the highest amount.
- Only one person paid less than J.
- M paid less than C but not less than D.
- The third highest amount is Rs.7500 which is three times the lowest amount.

Determine the Rent Amounts:
1. Let's start by arranging the rent amounts from lowest to highest: D, J, K, M, C.
2. From the information provided, we know that the third highest amount is Rs.7500. So, C paid Rs.7500.
3. Since M paid less than C but not less than D, M paid more than Rs.7500 but less than C. Therefore, M paid Rs.7500.
4. The person who paid the lowest amount paid one-third of Rs.7500, which is Rs.2500.
5. Since only one person paid less than J, and the lowest amount is Rs.2500, J must have paid more than Rs.2500. Hence, J paid Rs.7500.
6. Now, we know the rent amounts for C, M, and J. Therefore, the remaining amounts must be for D and K.

Answer:
- From the analysis, we can conclude that person D paid the lowest rent amount.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C) D.

Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Rahul Mehta answered
Let the number of men be x.
x men can do a work in 90 days.
(x - 8) men can do the work in (90 + 10) = 100 days
As we know that,
M1 D1 = M2 D2
⇒ x × 90 = (x - 8) × 100
⇒ 90x = 100x – 800
⇒ x = 80
The number of men originally = 80
Hence, the correct option is (C).
