Ans. B | Explanation:

Let the amount of flower-nectar needed be x kg.

Flower-nectar contains 50% water. So, flower-nectar contains 50% of non-watery part.

Honey contains 15% water. So, amount of non-watery part in the honey will be 85%.

When processing flower-nectar into honeybees' extract, only the water is lost during processing.Hence, the non-watery part in flower-nectar should be equal to the non-watery part in honey.

∴ 50% of the Amount of flower-nectar needed = 85% of the Amount of honey

Or 0.5 Γ— x = 0.85 Γ— 1 kg

Or x = (0.85/0.5) Γ— 1 kg = 1.7 kg

Therefore, the amount of flower-nectar needed is 1.7 kg.

Hence, option (b) is correct.

Ques. If Ξ± and Ξ² are two real numbers such that Ξ± + Ξ² = - q/p and Ξ±Ξ² = r/p, where 0<p<q<r (p, q, r are natural numbers), then which one of the following alternatives represents the highest value?

(d) Ξ±Ξ²/(Ξ± + Ξ²)
πŸ‘6
Ans. C | Explanation:

It is given that Ξ± + Ξ² = - q/p and Ξ±Ξ² = r/p, where 0<p<q<r

So, let’s assume p = 1, q = 2 and r = 3.

Putting these values in answer options, we get

(A) 1 / (Ξ± + Ξ²) = - p/q = - (1/2)

(B) (1/ Ξ±) + (1/ Ξ²) = (Ξ± + Ξ²)/ Ξ±Ξ² = -(q/p) Γ— (p/r) = - (q/r) = - (2/3)

(C) – 1/ (Ξ±Ξ²) = -(p/r) = - (1/3)

(D) Ξ±Ξ²/(Ξ± + Ξ²) = r/p Γ— (-p/q)= - r/q = - (3/2)

We can see that, - (1/3) is the greatest among the above values.

πŸ‘†Position of Letters in English Alphabet

✍️ Sometimes a word or a sentence is coded by changing the position of English alphabet letters according to a definite pattern, so it is necessary to remember the positions of all the letters in English alphabetical order, both in forward and backward order.

Circular Arrangement of Letters in English Alphabet

If we have to find the letter one placed forward to A, then the letter will be B and this result can be found out by using either linear or circular arrangement but when one is asked to find the letter which is one letter backward of A (Z is one letter backward A) or one letter forward of Z (A is the one letter forward Z), then only circular arrangement gives such results.

πŸ‘†Angle divisions of a clockπŸ‘†

πŸ–ŒA close observation of a clock reveals that an angular space between any two consecutive divisions has further five more divisions. The area between the two divisions corresponds to a value of 5 minutes. Hence, dividing the 30Β° by five will result in the angular value of a minute.

πŸ‘‰Angular value of a minute = (30Β°)/5= 6Β°

(d) 40.8%
πŸ‘4
Ans. D | Explanation:

Given, Marked price = Rs. 16000

So, Cost Price = (16000/160) Γ— 100 = Rs. 10000

If it is sold at 12% discount, then Selling Price = 16000 Γ— (88/100) = Rs. 14080

Profit on cost price = 14080 - 10000 = Rs. 4080

So, Profit percent = (4080/10000) Γ— 100 = 40.8%

Hence, option (d) is correct.
