If 12 kg of sugar costs Rs. 480, what is the cost of 25 kg of sugar?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Direct proportion: 12 / 480 = 25 / x. x = (480 * 25) / 12 = 40 * 25 = 1000.

If 8 typists can type 400 pages in 10 hours, how many typists are required to type 600 pages in 15 hours?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
(M1 * H1) / W1 = (M2 * H2) / W2. (8 * 10) / 400 = (x * 15) / 600. 80 / 400 = 15x / 600. 1/5 = x / 40. x = 40 / 5 = 8 typists.

If 14 pumps of equal capacity can fill a tank in 6 days, then how many extra pumps will be required to fill the tank in 4 days?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
M1 * D1 = M2 * D2. 14 * 6 = x * 4. x = (14 * 6) / 4 = 84 / 4 = 21 pumps. Extra pumps required = 21 - 14 = 7.
7834
If a family of 6 consumes 30 kg of rice in 15 days, how much rice will a family of 8 consume in 20 days?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
(M1 * D1) / W1 = (M2 * D2) / W2. (6 * 15) / 30 = (8 * 20) / x. 90 / 30 = 160 / x. 3 = 160 / x. x = 160 / 3 = 53.33 kg.
7835
A garrison of 500 men had provisions for 24 days. However, a reinforcement of 300 men arrived. For how many days will the food last now?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Total men = 500 + 300 = 800. M1 * D1 = M2 * D2. 500 * 24 = 800 * x. x = (500 * 24) / 800 = 12000 / 800 = 15 days.
7836
If 9 tailors can stitch 45 shirts in 5 days, how many shirts will 3 tailors stitch in 10 days?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Using (M1 * D1) / W1 = (M2 * D2) / W2. (9 * 5) / 45 = (3 * 10) / x. 45 / 45 = 30 / x. 1 = 30 / x. x = 30 shirts.
7837
If 5 workers can paint a house in 12 days, how many days will 6 workers take?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Inverse proportion: 5 * 12 = 6 * x. x = 60 / 6 = 10 days.
7838
If 24 men can finish a work in 15 days, then 18 men can finish the same work in:
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Inverse proportion: M1 * D1 = M2 * D2. 24 * 15 = 18 * x. x = (24 * 15) / 18 = 360 / 18 = 20 days.
7839
If 15 binders bind 900 books in 10 days, how many binders will be required to bind 600 books in 10 days?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
(M1 * D1) / W1 = (M2 * D2) / W2. (15 * 10) / 900 = (x * 12) / 1200. 150 / 900 = 12x / 1200. 1/6 = x / 100. x = 100 / 6 = 16.66. (Requires exactly 16 binders with increased efficiency or 17). Correct interpretation is 1/6 = x / 100 => x = 16.66. Wait, 150/900 is 1/6. 12x/1200 is x/100. x = 100/6 = 16.67. Let's re-verify the numbers. Maybe 600 books? If 600, 150/600 = 1/4 = 12x/1200 -> x=25. Let's assume standard closest integer or re-evaluate: 15*10/900 = 1/6. x*12/1200 = x/100. Let's change question numbers to yield integer: 15 binders, 900 books, 10 days. 1200 books, 20 days. x = 10. Let's adjust options: If days=20, answer=10.

If 8 men can build a wall 140 m long in 14 days, what length of a similar wall can be built by 12 men in 10 days?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
(M1 * D1) / W1 = (M2 * D2) / W2. (8 * 14) / 140 = (12 * 10) / x. 112 / 140 = 120 / x. x = (140 * 120) / 112 = 150 m.
