A scooter before overhauling requires 2/3 h service time every 45 days,while after overhauling it requires 2/3 h service time every 60 days. what fraction of pre-overhauling service time is saved in t
Time required for service before overhauling = 2/3h = 40 min in 45 days and time required for service after overhauling =2/3h= 40 min in 60 days Now,LCM of 45 and 60 = 180 days time required for service before overhauling is 180 days = 40 x 4 = 160 min and time required for service before overhauling is 180 days =40 x 3 = 120 min ∴ fraction of time saved = 160 - 120/160 =40/160 = 1/4
Let man's salary be Rs. NMoney spend on food =N/7Money spends on clothing = (N - N/7) x 1/2 = (6N/7) x (1/2) =3N/7Money spend on entertainment = (N - N/7 - 3N/7)/3 = (7N - 4N)/7 = N/7Now, money left =600⇒ N - N/7 - 3N/7 - N/7 = 600⇒ 7N - 5N/7 = 600⇒ N = 600 x 7/2 = Rs. 2100∴ Money spend on entertainment = 1/7 x 2100 = Rs. 300
Given expression is, 0.008 x 0.3The multiplication value without decimal point = 8 x 3 = 24Sum of the number of decimal places in the given numbers = 3 + 1 = 4Now, in the product, the decimal point is marked off to obtain as many places of decimal.Then the answer is 0.0024.
