Quiz 1

Solution: Suppose 'x' steps are moved down the escalator at the same time as A moves one step down.
So total steps moved by A = 75 + 75x .........(a)

Total Steps moved by B = 50 + 3\times 50x..........(b) ( as B takes thrice time to move down as A so 3\times x  steps are moved down the escalator when B moves one step down)

Since total steps are same:
75 + 75x = 50 + 3\times 50x

Substituting value of x in (a) or (b) we get total steps = 100

The answer is wrong on almost all the websites. Answer is ofcourse Afternoon, but A can be either Shahrukh or Salman. Here is the complete solution:
A says B is Shahrukh.

Assume it is morning,

Case I: A is actually Shahrukh. He always speaks truth in morning. NOT POSSIBLE.

Case II: A is actually Salman. He always lies in morning. NOT POSSIBLE

Assume it is afternoon,

Case I: A is actually Shahrukh. He always lies in the afternoon and thus says B is Shahrukh. POSSIBLE.

Case II: A is actually Salman. He always speaks truth in the afternoon. POSSIBLE.

Therefore, it is afternoon and A can be either Shahrukh or Salman

Only 0 1 6 8 and 9 can be read upside down.
So on rearranging these digits, we
get the answer as 10968

The figure can be divided into 12 equal triangles.

Explanation: Since L, N, P said that they have money and since they are (perfect) liars, it turns out that L has no money, N has no Money and P has no money.

Let us assume that M and O have money and verify the statements.

L says that M, N, O, P all have money. This has already been shown to be a lie. Good, so far!
P says L and N have money and we know that is a lie as well
M said that P says that exactly one person has the money. We know that is a lie as well (Both ways: M did not say one person has the money and nor does one person out of L & N have money)
N said that L said that exactly two have the money. Again this is a lie, as M named four, and out of those four, only one really has money

Explanation: There are in total 31 breads.
1st person ate 15.5+ 0.5 bread
2nd person ate 7.5+0.5 bread
3rd person ate 3.5+0.5 bread
4th person ate 1.5+0.5 bread
5th person ate 0.5+0.5 bread

Given: A says either Democratic or Liberal wins the elections. b says the Democratic wins. c says neither Democratic nor Liberal wins the election. of these only one is wrong. who wins the election

Arithmetically it'll be solved in 8 minimum weighings.

Explanation: 6561 balls.
if u notice is 3^8..n can be divided by 3(prime factor) only…we keep
on dividing it into sets of 3 and in 1 weighing itself you can
determine which set is heavy.
Divide that
set into further 3 lots…keep doing that like,
6561
2187 2187 2187 1st weighing
729 729 729 2nd weighing
243 243 243 3rd weighing
81 81 81 4th weighing
27 27 27 5th weighing
9 9 9 6th weighing
3 3 3 7th weighing
1 1 1 8th weighing

So, it would be 8 attempts

Solution:

The only detail you need to pay attention to is that if the frog reaches the desired height, it doesn't need to jump down anymore.

Solution:

From the given data,

1 rabbit is going towards the river, not the six elephants. And these 6 elephants saw 2 monkeys are going towards the river. Each monkey is holding 1 tortoise.

 

Hence, the number of animals going towards the river is 1 rabbit, 2 monkeys, and 2 tortoises

= 1 + 2 + 2

= 5
