Question: 3
In a hospital there were 200 diabetes, 150 hyperglycaemia and 150 gastro-enteritis patients. Of these, 80 patients were treated for both diabetes and hyperglycaemia. Sixty patients were treated for gastro-enteritis and hyperglycaemia, while 70 were treated for diabetes and gastro-enteritis. Some of these patients have all the three diseases. Dr. Dennis treats patients with only gastro-enteritis. Dr. Paul is a generalist. Therefore, he can treat patients with multiple diseases. Patients always prefer a specialist for their disease. If Dr. Dennis had 80 patients, then the other three doctors can be arranged in terms of the number of patients treated as:

- None of these
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
To solve this, we need to allocate patients to the respective doctors. Dr. Dennis treats only those with gastro-enteritis, so he has 80 patients. For Dr. Paul, who is a generalist, he would have treated the remaining patients from all three diseases, with no preference for one over the other. Based on this, we can arrange the doctors by the number of patients treated as Paul>Gerard>Hormis.
\[
\boxed{Paul>Gerard>Hormis}

- 1st prize: Bipin (Convent), 2nd prize: Balbir (Loyola), 3rd prize: Riaz (Little Flowers)
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
From the given clues:
- Loyola's contestant did not come first, so Balbir can't be first.
- The contestant from Pune isn't from Loyola, so Bipin must be from Convent.
- Riaz is from Little Flowers and didn’t come first.
- The contestant from Bangalore didn’t come first, so the order must be Riaz (1st), Balbir (2nd), Bipin (3rd).
Thus, the Correct Answer is: 1st prize: Riaz (Little Flowers), 2nd prize: Balbir (Loyola), 3rd prize: Bipin (Convent).
\[
\boxed{1st \text{ prize: } Riaz (Little Flowers), 2nd \text{ prize: } Balbir (Loyola), 3rd \text{ prize: } Bipin (Convent)}

Question: 5
Two boys are playing on a ground. Both the boys are less than 10 years old. Age of the younger boy is equal to the cube root of the product of the age of the two boys. If we place the digit representing the age of the younger boy to the left of the digit representing the age of the elder boy, we get the age of the father of the younger boy. Similarly, if we place the digit representing the age of the elder boy to the left of the digit representing the age of the younger boy and divide the figure by 2, we get the age of the mother of the younger boy. The mother of the younger boy is younger to his father by 3 years. Then, what is the age of the younger boy?

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Let the ages of the younger boy be \( x \) and the elder boy be \( y \). According to the problem:
1. \( x = \sqrt[3]{x \cdot y} \).
2. The number formed by placing \( x \) to the left of \( y \) represents the father’s age.
3. The number formed by placing \( y \) to the left of \( x \) and dividing by 2 represents the mother’s age.
4. The mother is 3 years younger than the father.
By solving these equations, we find that the younger boy's age is 2 years.

\boxed{2}

Question: 6
Flights A and B are scheduled from an airport within the next one hour. All the booked passengers of the two flights are waiting in the boarding hall after check-in. The hall has a seating capacity of 200, out of which 10% remained vacant. 40% of the waiting passengers are ladies. When the boarding announcement came, passengers of flight A left the hall and boarded the flight. Seating capacity of each flight is two-thirds of the passengers who waited in the waiting hall for both flights put together. Half the passengers who boarded flight A are women. After boarding for flight A, 60% of the waiting hall seats became empty. For every twenty of those who are still waiting in the hall for flight B, there is one air hostess in flight A. What is the ratio of empty seats in flight B to the number of air hostesses in flight A?

These seating and ratio problems require logical thinking and careful breakdown of the given numbers and ratios.

- 5:1
- 20:1
- 1:1
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The seating capacity of each flight is two-thirds of the total number of passengers, so after flight A's passengers board, 60% of the seats are empty. By calculating the number of passengers who boarded flight A and comparing it to the remaining passengers for flight B, we can find the ratio of empty seats in flight B to the number of air hostesses in flight A as 10:1.
\[
\boxed{10:1}
