Question 1
Dev is 63 weeks and 11 days older than me, whereas John is 59 weeks and 5 days older than Dev. If John was born on a Friday, on which day of the week was I born?
Sunday.
Wednesday.
Saturday.
Tuesday.
Ans: a
John is 63 + 59 = 122 weeks and 11 + 5 = 16 days older than me. Weeks are in multiples of 7 days. So we can ignore them. We can deal with the 16 days alone. Since 16 = 2 X 7 + 2, the excess days are 2. So we can count the day to Friday + 2 = Sunday.
.Question 2
How many hours are there between 7::24 A.M. to 9::30 P.M.
14::06.
15::05.
13::04.
16::07.
Ans: a
Minutes from 7::24 A.M. to 8::00 A.M. are 60 - 24 = 36. Minutes from 8::00 A.M. to 12::00 noon are 60 X 4 = 240 mins. Minutes from 12::00 noon to 9::30 P.M. are 60 x 9 = 540 + 30 = 570 mins. So total minutes are 36 + 240 + 570 = 846 minutes, which are equal to 60 X 14 + 6 Thus, hours are = 14, and minutes = 6
Question 3
At what angle the hands of a clock are inclined when it is half past 2?
105°
107°
160°
96°
Ans: a
= 21⁄2 x 6 = 15°
∴ Total angle between two hands = 90° + 15°
= 105°
