[QUOTE=Durrani Abid;620568][QUOTE=Syeda Bukhari;620562]How 240? Please help me understand so I may not make that mistake in future.

As far as my knowledge works, it's 180m.

120m is the length of the river.
Quarter from left means 1/4x120=30
Quarter from right means 1/4x120=30
So: 120+30+30=180

Do let me know if Iam wrong.

Stay blesses[/QUOTE]

Yes I am saying the same its "180"

[QUOTE=zia bugvi;620229]gr8 job buddy! here are some answers which i find worth having a re-look on your part.
3.He asked his servant what he has done to his watch. (had in place of has)............ originally it was: He asked his servant what he has done WITH his watch(so `with` was to be changed with TO) It is a matter of direct indirect. Has is to be replaced with had.
12. He has a large number of dependents who have no else to support them. (no else is not appropriate)......DEPENDENTS is wrong..it should be dependAnts(though i myself made mistake there)
Yes it is valid point if it was dependent. I do not remember.
21 The day two days after tomorrow was Thursday and the day before yesterday was? ( Saturday)....i think it was 2 days after tomorrow is Thursday n what was the day before yesterday.... correct answer should b:Friday.
It is saturday.
50. Salat was ordered ? (during mirage)....sallat was already obligatory before mirage but just for 2 times fajar n asar i believe...answer must b sour cave.

51. Algore,the former vice president of USA, was awarded noble prize for peace in 2007 for his work on? (global warming)..........hm i guess it was environmental protection,[/QUOTE]
It was global warming as climate change was the actual which was not option.

It is 240m as one quarter of the total bridge is to be left on each side. 60m is the quarter of 240m. Two quarters make 120m and 120m will cover the river.

[QUOTE=Durrani Abid;620555]Dear Cosmogony is the right one.
Cosmogony/Cosmogeny is the study of the start/creation of the universe, whereas Cosmology is the study of the universe as a whole. So a cosmologist studies the whole universe, including our solar system, other solar systems, galaxies, etc. whereas a cosmogonist studies only the start/creation of the universe and what had led its creation.

Stay blessed[/QUOTE]

Cosmogony or cosmogeny is not a branch of study but a theory about the origon of universe. The branch of study is cosmology.

Brother Cosmogony gives the meaning of the Metaphysical study of the creation of the universe as well as theory related to such creation.

[QUOTE=Durrani Abid;620572][QUOTE=smilingengineer;620570]

The data we are given is just the length of the river and nothing else.
So we have to calculate the length of quarters on the basis of the length of the river-that is 120.

Is there any other way possible???[/QUOTE]

Here i am going to elaborate my point . Statement (i)120 meter bridge is on river , while quarter of bridge is on each side on land.As 2qaurters means half bridge is on land , so half bridge is on river (120 meter).So lenght of half bridge = 120 meter.Lenght of full bridge = 240 meter...

Statement (ii) ..120 metr bridge is on river,while bridge equal to quarter of the river bridge lenghth lenghth is on each side.In this way it will be 30 metre on each side and total will be 120 +30+30 =180 metre

As far as i remeber in paper given statement was as per sceniorio (i).Can any other body recall to affirm the statement please

This was the exact statement... Even option (d) didn't contain unit "m"... However, the correct answer was option (d) i.e. 240
A bridge is built across the river. The river is 120 meters wide. One quarter of the bridge is over the left river bank and one quarter of the bridge is over the right river bank. How long is the bridge?
a. 150 m b. 180 m c. 210 m d. 240

You may confirm question statements as well as options...

river wala sawaal
 

River wale question ka answer 240 tha as equation will be as follows


Let x be the length of the bridge


than x/4 + x/4 +120 = x

x+x+120*4= 4x

x=240


question was tricky as we had to take the length of the bridge (not the length of river 120 which was 30 m )

28. There were 60 birds at three trees. In some moment 6 birds flew away from the first tree, 8 birds flew away from the second tree, and 4 birds flew away from the rest to make the number of birds on each tree equal. How many birds were there at the second tree at the beginning? (22)[/B]
i think both 22 and 24 are correct options. tell me why 22 is more suitable. as the question mentions that 4 birds flew from rest of flock not from third tree it makes a possibility that two birds might flew from second tree!

[B]33. If you cut a 1 meter cube into 1 decimeter cubes and put one on the other, what height this structure will have? (100M)[/B]
someone please elaborate this question and its right answer. i could not comprehend the question.

There were 60 birds in the beginning... Then 6 birds flew from the first tree, 8 from the second and 4 from the third tree... It means total 18 birds flew from the three trees, leaving the total 42 birds on three trees... According to the statement, equal number of birds were there on all the three trees, i.e. 14 birds on 1st, 2nd and 3rd tree... Eight (8) birds had flown from the second tree... So there were 22 birds on the second tree, in the beginning...

Brother actually there was typing mistake there in the paper.The phrase-"from the third tree"was missing there. The question was taken from the following link.
Visit it and look at the question no.11.

Brother,
Both Question statement and options are confirmed from your given link:

There is no option like Cosmology but Cosmogony.
And in the link Cosmogony is made bold to mirror the answer.
