Correct answer is D
1m = 1.1 yard, length(L)= 50m
= (50 x 1.1)yards
= 55 yards
Area(A) = length(L) y width (W)
1815 = 55y width (W)
width (w) = \(\frac{1815}{55}\)
= 33 yards
But 33 yards = 30 meters
120cm
240cm
360cm
480cm
Correct answer is B
The least length is \(\frac{40}{48}\) = \(\frac{5}{8}\)
for the rod to be cut in exactly equal trips
Ratio \(\frac{5}{6}\) : \(\frac{48}{40}\)
\(\frac{\frac{5}{6}}{\frac{40}{48}}\) = 1
\(\frac{5}{6}\) x \(\frac{48}{40}\) = \(\frac{240}{240}\) = 1
The least length = 240cm
Convert 241 in base 5 to base 8,
718
1078
1768
2418
Correct answer is B
2415 = 2 x 52 + 4 x 5 + 1 x 5 + 1 x 5o
50 + 20 + 1 = 7110
Convert 7110 to base 8
\(\begin{array}{c|c} 8 & 71 \\ 8 & 8 R 7\\8 & 1 R 0\\8 & 0 R 1\end{array}\)
= 1078
If two dice are thrown together, what is the probability of obtaining at least a score of 10?
\(\frac{1}{6}\)
\(\frac{1}{12}\)
\(\frac{5}{6}\)
\(\frac{11}{12}\)
Correct answer is A
The total sample space when two dice are thrown together is 6 x 6 = 36
\(\begin{array}{c|c} & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6\\ 1. & 1.1 & 1.2 & 1.3 & 1.4 & 1.5 & 1.6\\ 2 & 2.1 & 2.2 & 2.3 & 2.4 & 2.5 & 2.6\\3 & 3.1 & 3.2 & 3.3 & 3.4 & 3.5 & 3.6\\ 4 & 4.1 & 4.2 & 4.3 & 4.4 & 4.5 & 4.6\\ 5 & 5.1 & 5.2 & 5.3 & 5.4 & 5.5 & 5.6\\6 & 6.1 & 6.2 & 6.3 & 6.4 & 6.5 & 6.6 \end{array}\)
At least 10 means 10 and above
P(at least 10) = \(\frac{6}{36}\)
= \(\frac{1}{6}\)

1.0
5
Correct answer is C
Mean \(\bar{x}\) = \(\frac{156}{10}\) = 15.6
Median = \(\bar{y}\) = \(\frac{15 + 16}{2}\)
\(\frac{31}{2}\) = 15.5
\(\frac{x}{y}\) = \(\frac{15.6}{15.5}\) = 1.0065
