Three professors Dr. Gupta, Dr. Sharma, Dr. Singh are evaluating answer script of a subject. Dr. Gupta is 40% more efficient than Dr. Sharma, who is 20% more efficient than Dr. Singh. Dr. Gupta takes 10 days less than Dr. Sharma to complete the evaluation work. Dr. Gupta starts the evaluation work and works for 10 days and then Dr. Sharma takes over. Dr. Sharma evaluates for next 15 days and then stops. In how many days, Dr. Singh can complete the remaining evaluation work?

Option: 1

7.2 days


Option: 2

9.5 days


Option: 3

11.5 days


Option: 4

None

 


Let's solve this step by step

1)let's Dr.Singh's efficiency be x units/days

Then Dr.sharma = 20% more = 1.2x

          Dr.Gupta = 40% more than Sharma = 1.4 x 1.2x = 1.68x units/days

2) Dr.Gupta takes 10 days less than Dr.Sharma

    Time taken by sharma = S

     Then Gupta's time = S- 10 days

Work = Efficiency x Time

So , 1.2x x S = 1.68x x(S-10)

Cancel x :

1.2S = 1.68( S - 10 )

1.2S = 1.68S - 16.8

0.48s = 16.8

S = 35

So , Dr.Sharma takes 35 days

Dr.Gupta takes 25 days

3) find total work : using Dr.Gupta's rate and time :

Work = 1.68x x 25 = 42x units

4) work done by gupta 10 days = 1.68x x 10 = 16.8x

work done by Sharma in 15 days = 1.2x x 15 = 18x

Total work done = 16.8x + 18x = 34.8x

Remaining= 42x - 34.8x = 7.2x

5) Dr.Singh's rate = x

Time = Work /Rate = 7.2x / x = 7.2 days

Answer : Option 1 ( 7.2 days )

Aditya, Vedus and Yuvraj alone can do a job for 6 weeks, 9 weeks and 12 weeks respectively. They work together for 2 weeks. Then, Aditya leaves the job. Vedus leaves the job a week earlier to the completion of the work.The job would be completed in:

 

Option: 1

4 weeks


Option: 2

5 weeks


Option: 3

7 weeks


Option: 4

None


Aditya's 1 week work = 1/6

Vedus's = 1/9

Yuvraj's = 1/12

Step 1 : work done for first 2 weeks 

= 2 x (1/6 + 1/9 + 1/12 )

LCM of 6,9,12 = 36

= 2 x (6+4+3)/36 = 2 x 13/36 = 26/36

Remaining work = 1 - 26/36 = 10/36

Step 2  : after 2 weeks aditya leaves .vedus and yuvraj work together 

Let total time = x weeks

So vedus , works ( x - 3 ) weeks ( he leaves 1 week before ends )

Yuvraj works full ( x - 2 ) weeks 

Work done after Aditya left :

= ( x - 3 ) x 1/9 + (x-2) x 1/12

= (4x - 10 )/36

This must equal to remaining work:

(4x - 10 )/36 = 10/36

4x - 10 = 10

4x = 20

x = 5

Answer : option 2 - 5 weeks

The following is the biochemical pathway for purple pigment production in flowers of sweet pea:

Colorless precursor 1 —- Allele A—->  Colorless precursor 2 —--- Allele B—---> Purple pigment

Recessive mutation of either gene A or B leads to the formation of white flowers. A cross is made between two parents with the genotype: AaBb × aabb. Considering that the two genes are not linked, the phenotypes of the expected progenies are:

 

Option: 1

9 purple : 7 white


Option: 2

3 white : 1 purple


Option: 3

1 purple : 1 white


Option: 4

9 purple : 6 light purple : 1 white
