Numerical ability questions
Q1: Boat upstream
Problem: A boat’s speed in still water is 15 km/h and the stream is 3 km/h. How long to cover 36 km upstream?
Solution: Upstream speed = 15 − 3 = 12 km/h. Time = 36 / 12 = 3 hours.
Answer: 3 hours
Q2: Age ratio
Problem: The ratio of ages of A and B is 3:5. After 8 years the ratio becomes 5:7. Find A’s present age.
Solution: Let ages be 3x and 5x. (3x+8)/(5x+8) = 5/7 7(3x+8) = 5(5x+8) 21x + 56 = 25x + 40 4x = 16 → x = 4 A’s age = 12 years.
Answer: 12 years
Q3: Fraction simplify
Problem: Simplify: (3/4) ÷ (9/8) × (2/3).
Solution: (3/4) × (8/9) × (2/3) = (3×8×2)/(4×9×3) = 48/108 = 4/9.
Answer: 4/9
Q4: Work efficiency
Problem: A is twice as efficient as B. Together they finish in 12 days. How many days does A alone need?
Solution: Let B = x days, A = x/2. 1/(x/2) + 1/x = 1/12 → 2/x + 1/x = 1/12 → 3/x = 1/12 → x = 36. A alone = 18 days.
Answer: 18 days
Q5: Worker scaling
Problem: Eight workers finish a job in 10 days. How many days will 10 workers take for the same job (same pace)?
Solution: Total man-days = 8 × 10 = 80. Days for 10 workers = 80 / 10 = 8 days.
Answer: 8 days
Q6: Sum of naturals
Problem: What is the sum of the first 50 natural numbers?
Solution: Sum of first n naturals = n(n+1)/2. For n = 50: 50 × 51 / 2 = 1275.
Answer: 1275
Q7: Number digit sum
Problem: Sum of digits of a two-digit number is 9. If digits are reversed, number increases by 27. Original number?
Solution: 10a+b; a+b=9; 10b+a = 10a+b+27 → 9b−9a=27 → b−a=3. a+b=9, b−a=3 → b=6, a=3. Number = 36.
Answer: 36
Q8: Time and distance chase
Problem: A is 100 m ahead of B. A runs at 8 m/s and B at 10 m/s. How long until B catches A?
Solution: Relative speed = 2 m/s. Time = 100/2 = 50 seconds.
Answer: 50 seconds
Q9: Net percent change
Problem: A number is increased by 20% and then decreased by 20%. What is the net percentage change?
Solution: Start with 100 → 120 → 96. Net change = 4% decrease. Formula: successive +a then −a gives −(a²/100)% = −4%.
Answer: 4% decrease
Q10: Consecutive integers
Problem: If the sum of three consecutive integers is 72, what is the smallest of these integers?
Solution: Let the integers be x, x+1, and x+2.
x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 72 3x + 3 = 72 3x = 69 x = 23
So the integers are 23, 24, and 25.
