    A. 63 B. 48 C. 96 D. 69

Answer: Option D
Explanation : ets digit at tens and ones place be 2x and 3x So,number is 2x*10 + 3x After interchanging number will be 3x*10 +2x so, [3x*10 + ] – [2x*10 + 3x]27 we get, x = 3 so number = 69
Q2. What least number would be subtracted from 427398 so that the remaining number is divisible by 15?
    A. 13 B. 3 C. 16 D. 11

Answer: Option B

    A. 8hrs B. 7hrs C. 9hrs D. 11hrs

Answer: Option A
Explanation: First calculate no of pages they draw in one hour. For priya it is [latex]\frac{60}{8}[/latex] and for parul it is [latex]\frac{45}{6}[/latex]. Now total pages they draw in one hour is [latex]\frac{60}{8}[/latex] + [latex]\frac{45}{6}[/latex] = 15 So to print 120 time they will take = 15*X = 120. So X = 8hrs

5. P takes 6 days less than Q to finish the work individually. If P and Q working together complete the work in 4 days, then how many days are required by Q to complete the work alone ?
    A. 7 days B. 10 days C. 5 days D. 12 days

Answer: Option D
Explanation: = [latex]\frac{1}{6}[/latex] + [latex]\frac{1}{12}[/latex] = [latex]\frac{2 + 1}{12}[/latex] = [latex]\frac{3}{12}[/latex] = [latex]\frac{1}{4}[/latex]
