Option 1: 15 days
Option 2: 30 days
Option 3: 22 days
Option 4: 33 days
Correct Answer: 33 days
Solution : Given: Ashish can complete $\frac{2}{3}$rd the work in 22 days.

Question : Directions: Which number will replace the question mark (?) in the following series
17, 51, 58, 116, 123, 123, ?
Option 1: 150
Option 2: 130
Option 3: 140
Option 4: 120
Correct Answer: 130
Solution : Given:
17, 51, 58, 116, 123, 123, ?
Multiply the decreasing order of the numbers starting from 3, and add 7 alternately to the given numbers –
17 × 3 = 51; 51 + 7 = 58; 58 × 2 = 116; 116 + 7 = 123; 123 × 1 = 123; 123 + 7 = 130
So, 130 is the missing number of the series. Hence, the second option is correct.
Question : In a race of 1200 m, Ram can beat Shyam by 200 m or by 20 sec. What must be the speed of Ram?
Option 1: 14 m/sec
Option 2: 12 m/sec
Option 3: 10 m/sec
Option 4: 16 m/sec
Correct Answer: 12 m/sec
Solution :
Ram beats Shyam by 200 m or 20 sec.
This means Shyam covers a 200 m distance in 20 sec.
$\therefore$ Speed of Shyam = $\frac{200}{20}$ = 10 m/sec
Also, in the 1200 m race, Ram beats Shyam by 200 m.
Distance covered by Ram = 1200 m
Distance covered by Shyam in same time = 1000 m
Now, the 1000 m distance is covered by Shyam with a speed of 10 m/sec in $\frac{1000}{10}$ = 100 seconds
So, 1200 m distance is covered by Ram in 100 seconds.
$\therefore$ Speed of Ram = $\frac{1200}{100}$ = 12 m/sec
Hence, the correct answer is 12 m/sec.
