 Infosys  |  Question 17 of 46    Print  
Hello friends I need answer with working steps for the following questions as soon as possible as I have only one day to prepare for Infosys test.
1)There was a person who smoked a lot .One day he decided to quit his habbit,but he had 27 cigarettes with him. So he started smoking them one by one ,to finish them. He had the habit of smoking only 2/3rd of it and leaving the rest butt. latter he found out that by joining 3 butts he can form 1 cigarette. So, tell haw many cigarettes in all he smoked.

2)There are 100 men in town. Out of which 85% were married, 70% have a phone, 75% own a car, 80% own a house. What is the maximum number of people who are married, own a phone, own a car and own a house ?

3)One day Harry and I set our watches together. None of us was aware that my watch was getting faster by 2 min per hour and Harry’s watch was getting slower by 1 min per hour. After sometime, we discovered that my watch was 1 hr ahead of Harry’s watch. Can you find out after how long we noticed this ?

hai, firstly 27 cigretes leaving 27butts hence 27/3=9 more cigerettes.so now a total of 36 cigerettes already. now again 9/3 leaving 3 more which again3/3 leaves one more .hence a total=27+9+3+1=40 cigerettes.

RE: Hello friends I need answer with working steps for...

According to me the solution is:


Every above friends are forgetting smoker has the habit of smoking 2/3rd of what he has at one time.

so aproach is this way

(2/3)*27+(18/3)+(2/3)*9+(6/3)+(2/3)*3+(2/3)=104/3 cigs.
