41. Taps A and B can fill a bucket in 12 minutes and 15 minutes respectively. If both are opened and A is closed after 3 minutes, how much further time would it take for B to fill the bucket?
8 min 15 sec
7 min 15 sec
6 min 15 sec
5 min 15 sec
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Part filled in 3 minutes =
3∗(1/12 +1/15 )
=3∗9/60 =9/20
Remaining part =1−9/20
=11/20
=>1/15 :11/20 =1:X
=>X=11/20 ∗15/1
=>X=8.25mins

So it will take further 8 mins 15 seconds to fill the bucket.
42. An athlete runs 200 meters in 24 seconds. His speed is ?
10 km/hr
17 k/hr
27 km/hr
30 km/hr
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Speed=Distance/Time
=200/24 m/sec
=25/3 m/sec
25/3 ∗18/5 km/hr
=30km/hr
43. The area of a rectangle is 460 square metres. If the length is 15% more than the breadth, what is the breadth of the rectangular field ?
18 meter
20 meter
22 meter
25 meter
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let breadth =x metres.
Then length =(115x/100)metres.
=x∗115x/100 =460
X2=(460x100/115)
X2=400
x=20
44. A towel, when bleached, was found to have lost 20% of its length and 10% of its breadth. The percentage of decrease in area is ?
25%
26%
27%
28%
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Let original length = x
and original width = y
Decrease in area will be
=xy−{(80x/100) × (90y/100 )}
=(xy−(18/25) xy)
=7/25 xy
Decrease = ((7xy)/(25xy) )×100)%
=28%
45. The maximum length of a pencil that can he kept is a rectangular box of dimensions 8 cm x 6 cm x 2 cm, is
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
In this question we need to calculate the diagonal of cuboid,
which is =
Under root of (l2 +b2 +h2)
=under root of (82 +62 +22 ) =under root of 104
= 2√26
46. 12 spheres of the same size are made from melting a solid cylinder of 16 cm diameter and 2 cm height. Find the diameter of each sphere.
4 cm
6 cm
8 cm
10 cm
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
In this type of question, just equate the two volumes to get the answer as,
Volume of cylinder =πr2h
Volume of sphere =4/3 πr3
=>12∗4/3 πr3 =πr2 h
=>12∗4/3 πr3 =π∗8∗8∗2
=>r3=(8∗8∗2∗3)/(12∗4)
=>r3=8
=>r=2cm
=>Diameter =2∗2=4cm
47. A cone of height 9 cm with diameter of its base 18 cm is carved out from a wooden solid sphere of radius 9 cm. The percentage of the wood wasted is :
45%
56%
67%
75%
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
We will first subtract the cone volume from wood volume to get the wood wasted.
Then we can calculate its percentage.

Sphere Volume =43 πr3
Cone Volume =1/3 πr2 h
Volume of wood wasted =(4/3 π∗9∗9∗9)−(1/3 π∗9∗9∗9)=π∗9∗9∗9cm3
Required Percentage ={(π∗9∗9∗9)/(4/3 π∗9∗9∗9 )}∗100%
=3/4 ∗100%=75%
48. The slant height of a conical mountain is 2.5 km and the area of its base is 1.54 km square. The height of mountain is :
2.3 km
2.4 km
2.5 km
2.6 km
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let the radius of the base be r km. Then,
Πr2 =1.54
R2=(1.54∗7)/22 =0.49
=0.7km
Now l=2.5 km, r = 0.7 km
h=under root of (2.52 −0.72 ) km
=under root of (6.25−0.49) =under root of (5.76 )km
2.4km
49. The radii of two cones are in ratio 2:1, their volumes are equal. Find the ratio of their heights.
1:4
1:3
1:2
1:5
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Let their radii be 2x, x and their heights be h and H resp.
Then,
Volume of cone =1/3 πr2 h
(1/3 ∗π∗(2x)2∗h)/(1/3 ∗π∗x2∗H)
=>h/H =1/4
=>h:H=1:4
50. The volume of the largest right circular cone that can be cut out of a cube of edge 7 cm is:
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Volume of the largest cone = Volume of the cone with diameter of base 7 and height 7 cm

Volume of cone =1/3 πr2h
=1/3 ∗22/7 ∗3.5∗3.5∗7
=269.5/3 cm3
=89.8cm3

Note: radius is taken as 3.5, as diameter is 7 cm
