what number is obtained by adding the units digits of 734 ^ 98 and 347 ^ 82 ?
"the units digit of 734 ^ 98 is 6 because 4 raised to the power of an even integer ends in 6 . the units digit of 347 ^ 82 is 9 because powers of 7 end in 7 , 9 , 3 , or 1 cyclically . since 82 is in the form 4 n + 2 , the units digit is 9 . then 6 + 9 = 15 . the answer is e ."

"train overtakes a bike means that we are talking about total length of the train . ( train ' s head is close to bike when it started and its tail crosses the bike when it overtakes the bike ) relative speed = 100 - 64 = 36 km / h = 36000 m / h time = 18 seconds distance = speed * time 36000 * 18 / 3600 = 180 meters . a is the answer ."

carl is facing very difficult financial times and can only pay the interest on a $ 30,000 loan he has taken . the bank charges him a quarterly compound rate of 10 % . what is the approximate interest he pays annually ?
"usually , you are given the annual rate of interest and it is mentioned that it is annual rate . the bank charges him a quarterly compounded annual rate of 40 % . here you find per quarter rate as ( 40 / 4 ) % = 10 % i have actually never seen a question with quarter rate given but since this question did not mentionannual rate of interestand since the options did not make sense with 5 % annual rate of interest , it is apparent that the intent was a 10 % quarterly rate . so the bank charges 10 % every quarter and compounds it in the next quarter . had it been a simple quarterly rate , we would have just found 4 * 10 % of 30,000 = $ 12000 as our answer . but since , the interest is compounded , it will be a bit more than $ 12000 . option ( e ) looks correct ."

a jogger is running at 9 kmph alongside a railway track in 240 meters ahead of the engine of a 120 meters long train . the train is running at 45 kmph in the same direction . how much time does it take for the train to pass the jogger ?
explanation : distance to be covered = 240 + 120 = 360 m relative speed = 36 km / hr = 36 Γ— 10 / 36 = 10 m / s time = distance / speed = 360 / 10 = 36 seconds answer : option b

working together , jose and jane can complete an assigned task in 15 days . however , if jose worked alone and complete half the work and then jane takes over the task and completes the second half of the task , the task will be completed in 45 days . how long will jose take to complete the task if he worked alone ? assume that jane is more efficient than jose
"assume : jose does 1 job in x days , so jose does 1 / x job in a day jane does 1 job in y days , so jane does 1 / y job in a day together , they does ( x + y ) / xy job in a day . this is equals to 1 / 20 . so ( x + y ) / xy = 1 / 15 15 ( x + y ) = xy next , we ' re told 1 job takes 45 days to complete if jose and jane each does half the work . so since jose does 1 job in x days , he wil need x / 2 days to do half the job . jane similarly will need y / 2 days to do the other half . x / 2 + y / 2 = 45 x + y = 90 so xy = 1350 the answer choices are : 25 days 30 days 60 days 65 days 36 days from the answer choices , so i ' ll go for 50 days for jose and 27 days for jane . answer : c"

a not - so - good clockmaker has four clocks on display in the window . clock # 1 loses 17 minutes every hour . clock # 2 gains 15 minutes every hour relative to clock # 1 ( i . e . , as clock # 1 moves from 12 : 00 to 1 : 00 , clock # 2 moves from 12 : 00 to 1 : 15 ) . clock # 3 loses 20 minutes every hour relative to clock # 2 . finally , clock # 4 gains 20 minutes every hour relative to clock # 3 . if the clockmaker resets all four clocks to the correct time at 12 noon , what time will clock # 4 display after 6 actual hours ( when it is actually 6 : 00 pm that same day ) ?
c 1 loses 15 minutes every hour . so after 60 minutes have passed , c 1 displays that 60 - 15 = 45 minutes have passed . c 2 gains 15 minutes for every 60 minutes displayed on c 1 . thus , the time displayed on c 2 is 75 / 60 = 5 / 4 the time displayed on c 1 . so after 60 minutes have passed , c 2 displays the passing of ( 5 / 4 * 45 ) minutes . c 3 loses 20 minutes for every 60 minutes displayed on c 2 . thus , the time displayed on c 3 is 40 / 60 = 2 / 3 the time displayed on c 2 . so after 60 minutes have passed , c 3 displays the passing of ( 2 / 3 * 5 / 4 * 45 ) minutes . c 4 gains 20 minutes for every 60 minutes displayed on c 3 . thus , the time displayed on c 4 is 80 / 60 = 4 / 3 the time displayed on clock 3 . so after 60 minutes have passed , c 4 displays the passing of 4 / 3 * 2 / 3 * 5 / 4 * 45 = 50 minutes . c 4 loses 10 minutes every hour . in 6 hours , c 4 will lose 6 * 10 = 60 minutes = 1 hour . since the correct time after 6 hours will be 6 pm , c 4 will show a time of 6 - 1 = 5 : 34 pm . the correct answer is b .
