The length of the bridge, which a train 130 meters long and travelling at 45 km/hr can cross in 30 seconds, is?
[ "277", "245", "299", "888" ]
B
Speed = (45 * 5/18) m/sec = (25/2) m/sec. Time = 30 sec. Let the length of bridge be x meters. Then, (130 + X)/30 = 25/2 ==> 2(130 + X) = 750 ==> X = 245 m.Answer:C

Q:Robert purchased $3500 worth of US saving bonds. If bonds are sold in $50 or $100 denominations only, which of the following CANNOT be the number of US saving bonds that Robert purchased?
[ "20", "80", "27", "70" ]
B
I started off with looking at the answer choices... 20-27-50 are in a tight range, so my guess was to look and rule out the bigger numbers. The total amount is $3500. So with 80 bonds, each $50 = $4000 , we already exceed the $3500 limit. Hence E is the answer.

Difference between the length and breadth of a rectangle is 23 m. Ifits perimeter is 206 m, then its area is??
[ "1520 m^2", "2520 m^2", "3420 m^2", "2600 m^2" ]
B
We have: (l - b) = 23 and 2(l + b) = 206 or (l + b) = 103. Solving the two equations, we get: l = 63 and b = 40. Area = (l x b) = (63 x 40) m2 = 2520 m^2 C
