Can you find out the next digit in the following series ?
0, 0, 1, 3, 2, 6, 3, 9, 4, 12, 5, ?
The next number is 15.
In the given series, there is actually a pair of series. Pick the alternate digits.
One series is:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Here the digits are progressing by one.
Second series is:
0, 3, 6, 9, 12, _
Here the digits are a multiple of 3. Therefore, the next number will be 15.
Amy was sitting in front of a clock. When she observed it for the first time, the hour hand was at a minute mark and the minute hand was six minutes ahead it.
After some time, she observed the clock again to find that the hour hand was exactly on a different minute mark and the minute hand was seven minutes ahead of its time.
Can you calculate how much time has elapsed between two observations?
When Amy first observed, the time was 1:12 and when she noticed again, the time was 3:24. Hence, 2 hours and 12 minutes have passed between two observations.
A kid goes to a confectionery and buys three kinds of chocolates. The first one is priced at 5 rupees, second one at 3 rupees and third one at 0.5 rupees.
If he bought 100 chocolates in total, how many pieces do you think he bought of each chocolate?
Let us denote the chocolates with a, b and c.
We can frame the following two equations now
a + b + c = 100 ------ (1)
5a + 3b + 0.5c = 100
or 10a + 6b + c = 200 ---- (2)
Now, 2*[(Eq. 2) - (Eq.1)]
9a + 5b = 100
from this equation"a" should be a multiple of 5
for a = 5 ; b = 11
for a = 10 ; b = 2
for a = 15 or more b becomes -ve
Therefore, the two possible answers are
a = 5, b = 11, c = 84
a = 10, b = 2, c = 88
