Question 1
If 1st May of an ordinary, non-leap year falls on a Monday, then what will be the day of week on 1st August of that year?
Tuesday.
Wednesday.
Monday.
Sunday.
Ans: a
Count the days from months between May 1 and August 1 like this: May days = 31;June days = 30;July days = 31; So total days = 92. Since 92 = 13 X 7 + 1, so excess days are 1. So we can count the day to Monday + 1 = Tuesday.
.Question 2
How many hours are there between 9::42 A.M. to 8::12 P.M.
10::30.
12::28.
8::28.
12::32.
Ans: a
Minutes from 9::42 A.M. to 10::00 A.M. are 60 - 42 = 18. Minutes from 10::00 A.M. to 12::00 noon are 60 X 2 = 120 mins. Minutes from 12::00 noon to 8::12 P.M. are 60 x 8 = 480 + 12 = 492 mins. So total minutes are 18 + 120 + 492 = 630 minutes, which are equal to 60 X 10 + 30 Thus, hours are = 10, and minutes = 30
Question 3
A schools starts from 10 a.m.,. and continues till 1:30 p.m. In this duration there are 5 periods. If 5 minutes are provided before each period to leave the room and enter the other, then what is the duration of each period?
41 min.
38 min.
40 min.
42 min.
Ans: b
Duration of school time = 1:30 p.m. - 10:00 a.m, which = 13:30 - 10:00, which = 3:30 hours which = 210 minutes. Time for leaving = 5 x 4 = 20 minutes.So time for 5 periods = 210 - 20 = 190 minutes, Hence duration of 1 period = 190⁄5 = 38 minutes.
