Answer D

Explanation

Apparent paradox means You describe a situation as a paradox when it involves two or more facts or qualities which seem to contradict each other.

In this case Option(D) provides the antagonistically related conditions.

1.Correct Option: B

Work done by Ranu and Bhanu in 6 days

= 6 /18 + 6 /12 = 1 /3 + 1/2 = 5/6

Remaining work = = 1 – 5 /6 = 1/6

which is finished by Shivam and Ranu in 2 days.
Ranu can do 2/18 = 1 /9 work in 2 days

⇒ 1 /6 – 1 /9 = 3 -2/18 = 1/18 work is done Shivam in 2 days

Therefore, Shivam can do the complete work in 36 days.

Hence, option B is correct.

2.Correct Option: C
Rs. 180 tax is charged at a % since it is less than Rs. 5000.

Similarly, Rs. 189 is charged at b%

ST is charged after applying discount.

Marked Price - After discount (10%) -Sales tax
4000 - 3600 - 180 (at a%)
7000 - 6300 -189 (at b%)

Hence, a% of 3600 = 180
i.e. a × 3600 = 180 ⇒ a = 5
100
100ilarly, b × 6300 = 189 ⇒ b = 3
100
Therefore, a + b = 5 + 3 = 8

Hence, option C is correct.

3.Correct Option: A

Total Population having 3G phones = 120000

No. of smart phones = 85% × 60% × 75% + 85% × 40% × 20

Total population = 120000
85% × 60% × 75% + 85% × 40% × 20%
= 120000
0.85 × 0.6 × 0.75 + 0.85 × 0.4 × 0.2
= 120000
.3825 + 0.068
= 120000 = 266370.69 ≈ 266370
0.4505
Hence, option A is correct.

4.Correct Option: D
The number of letters in the word OPTICAL is seven, in which three vowels (AIO) are considered as one.

∴ No. of ways 4 letters (PTCL) and group of three vowels which are considered as one letter can be arranged = 5!

and the no. of ways 3 vowels (AIO) can be arranged = 3!

∴ Total no. of ways = 5! × 3! = 720

Hence, option D is correct.

5.Correct Option: D
Cost price = Rs. 2500

Marked price = 115% of 2500 = Rs. 2875

6% discount was given on marked price.

New price = 94% of 2875 = Rs. 2702.5

∴ Profit % = 2702.5 – 2500 × 100 = 8.1%
2500
Hence, option D is correct.

Earth Hour

Context:

Every year, Earth Hour is observed on the last Saturday of March at 8:30 pm. And while previously it brought the public out onto the roads to mark the hour, this year the famous environmental initiative went digital as many countries are in lockdown.

What is Earth Hour? 

Dating back to 2007, Earth Hour is an annual event organized by the World Wildlife Fund that promotes conservation and sustainable energy. During this time, civilians are encouraged to switch off their lights for one hour to help reduce the effect of global warming and raise awareness for climate change and wildlife conservation.

Background:

It was famously started as a lights-off event in Sydney, Australia in 2007. Since then it has grown to engage more than 7000 cities and towns worldwide. Today, Earth Hour engages a massive mainstream community on a broad range of environmental issues. The one-hour event continues to remain the key driver of the now larger movement.

What’s the difference between Earth Hour and Earth Day? 

Whereas Earth Hour stands as a climate change initiative where people reduce their electricity usage, Earth Day (April 22) celebrates our natural environment by inspiring people to plant trees, recycle regularly and keep the planet tidy.

Why do we need earth hour?

Global warming and climate change have dominated the scientific discourse in the past more than one decade. With ever rising population of the world, the climate change has put the humankind at a great risk along with other species.

Global warming, rising levels of pollution due to ever increasing industrialisation, declining forest cover and rising sea levels are some of the dangers that drastically affect the workings of life on the earth.

Though the largest polluters are big industries, the WWF tries to make the masses more and more aware about the impending dangers of adverse climate so that they could put pressure on the respective governments to frame environment-friendly policies and laws.

With Earth Hour, the WWF aims to engage people across the globe to adopt more sustainable lifestyle. Turning off lights for an hour is just an annual reminder that if the world does not mend its ways, it will be heading to a dark age, literally.
