Answer : 4. "2834"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 2834 Explanation: Let the total number of votes polled in the election be 100k.Number of valid votes = 100k - 20% (100k) = 80kLet the number of votes polled in favour of K and L be a and b respectively.a - b = 15% (100k) => a = b + 15k=> a + b = b + 15k + bNow, 2b + 15k = 80k and hence b = 32.5kIt is given that 100k = 872032.5k = 32.5k/100k x 8720 = 2834 The number of valid votes polled in favour of L is 2834.

Explanation :
Answer: D) 5 minutes Explanation: Let the total capacity of tank be 90 liters.Capacity of tank filled in 1 minute by K = 3 liters.Capacity of tank filled in 1 minute by L = 15 liters.Therefore, capacity of the tank filled by both K and L in 1 minute = 18 liters.Hence, time taken by both the pipes to overflow the tank = 90/18 = 5 minutes.

Answer : 1. "20%"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 20% स्पष्टीकरण: अंग्रेजी में उत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 60% हिंदी में उत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 45% दोनों विषयों में उत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 25% एटीक्यू, केवल अंग्रेजी में उत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 60 - 25 = 35% का प्रतिशत विद्यार्थी केवल हिंदी में उत्तीर्ण हुए = 45 - 25 = 20% इसलिए, अनुत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 100 - (35 + 25 + 20) = 100 - 80 = 20%।

Answer : 2. "7 hrs"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 7 hrs Explanation: Given, P can fill in 12 hrs Q can fill in 15 hrs R can fill in 20 hrs => Volume of tank = LCM of 12, 15, 20 = 60 lit => P alone can fill the tank in 60/12 = 5 hrs => Q alone can fill the tank in 60/15 = 4 hrs => R alone can fill the tank in 60/20 = 3 hrs Tank can be filled in the way that (P+Q) + (P+R) + (P+Q) + (P+R) + .... => Tank filled in 2 hrs = (5+4) + (5+3) = 9 + 8 = 17 lit => In 6 hrs = 17 x 6/2 = 51 lit => In 7th hr = 51 + (5+4) = 51 + 9 = 60 lit => So, total tank will be filled in 7 hrs.
