Hi...
I m pranesh . ..
for the 14 i think its a. coz integers less than 100 includes necative integers. if v account these it ll be greater than 100.
for the 9th if v assume one yr ago as last yr v get 360.
pl correct me if i m wrong - August 23, 2008 at 9:09 AM

Jay :
Procedure for question 9
Suppose there were F workers
one year ago thre were (1/4)F of architects..
Now 60 added so thre r in all F+60 workers now ...
Now out of this 60 thre 50 Architects.....
So total architects r (1/4)F+50
and last line says that there r (1/3) of total workers which are F+60
so (1/4)F +50 = (1/3)(F+60)
THIS BRINGS f= 360 - August 25, 2008 at 10:50 AM

clarification for Que 4....
If A completes in 12 hours. Then in 8 hour he will complete 2/3 of his work. rest of 1/3 third will be done by B. Now if B is doing 1/3 Job in 8 hours then he will complete the job separately in 8 * 3= 24 hours - August 26, 2008 at 12:00 PM

13.) There are 35 females in a club having average of their age as 'f' and there are 45 males in a club having average of their age as 'm'. If 'f' is greater than 'm', then
Col A: Average age of all 80 members
col b: (f+m)/2
Ans : B... because normal mean will be(35f+45m)/80 (less weighted of greater value 'f') , which will always be less than (f+m)/2 - August 26, 2008 at 12:08 PM

Dear Anik
16. If x, y, z are positive integers and if 3x = 4y = 10z, then what is the least possible value of z?
A. 3
B. 1
C. 9
D. 6
E. Cannot be determined
Ans : It should be D z=6...otherwise Y would not be a positive integer... - August 26, 2008 at 12:19 PM
