RE: Infosys Questions

Hi Priya.... I m also giving test on 2nd april... i tried these problems and giving solutions which i m sure about... U can contact me on my email id sucheta_15@hotmail.com... All The Best...

There r some chickens and some chicken field.If we sell 75 chickens Then thefeed will last 20 days longer.If we buy 100 chickens more then the feed will get over before 15 days.What is the present number of chickens?

no of chickens x is inversaly proportional to the no of days y. therefore

x k/y.........(a) now consider the first condition

x-75 k/(y+20) k (x-75)(y+20).............(b) solve (a) and (b) and get the eq for k in terms of y

x+100 k/(y-15) k (x+100)(y-15)...........(c ) solve (a) and (c) and get the eq for k in terms of y

equating these two equtions in terms of y we can get the value of y

y 60 k 75*60*4 x 75*4

.A man is visited by his 7 friends in the following pattern.The first friend visited every day.The second visited every second day.The third visited every third day and so on upto 7th friend on every 7th day.When will they all meet together?

this we can find using LCM of 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 that is 420. they will meet on 420th day

Mr. X (who got the Param veer charka in 1948) died at the age which is 1 / 39th of his year of birth in which year did he born.

year of born consider x

the eqn is 1948-x x/39

x is approximatly 1899
