1 Answer

Answer :

Answer- 3(40)

Explanation:- (1/5)x =(5/8)y………..1

if 35 is added to first no. , x + 35= 4y

so,x= 4y -35

put in eq 1… (1/5)( 4y-35) = (5/8)y

y=40 =second number

Description : Suresh and Ramesh are twins. In a form by mistake, Suresh reverses the last 2 digits of his year of birth, and this makes him 9 years older than Ramesh. With this mistake, the sum of their ages in 2015 becomes 43. How old will Ramesh be 2021? a) 17 b) 19 c) 21 d) 23 e) 25

Last Answer : Let the correct ages of Ramesh and Suresh be X in 2015 (since they are twins, they will have the same age) Given: 2x + 9 = 43 Or x = 17 years in 2015. Age in 2021 = 17 + 6 = 23 Note: year of birth = 2015 – 17 = 1998. Reversing, Suresh = 1989 or 9 year older. Answer: d)

Of the 5 numbers, the first is twice the second, the second is one – third of the third, the third is 5 times of the fourth, and the fourth is three – seventh of fifth. The average of the numbers is 35. The largest of these number is. A) 30.63 B) 65.625 C) 43.75 D) 75.356

Description : Of the 5 numbers, the first is twice the second, the second is one – third of the third, the third is 5 times of the fourth, and the fourth is three – seventh of fifth. The average of the numbers is 35. The largest of these number is. A) 30.63 B) 65.625 C) 43.75 D) 75.356

Last Answer : B) Let the fifth number be x'. 4th number = 3/7 x 3rd number = 5 (3/7 x) = 15/7x 2nd number = 1/3 (15/7 x) = 15 /21 x 1st number = 2 (15/21 x) = 30/21 x X + 3/7 x + 15 /7 ... 120x = 3675 X = 30.625 So the numbers are 30.62, 13.125, 65.625, 21.875, 43.75. Therefore largest number is 65.625.
