Related Comprehension Questions 1. How many cubes are painted with red or blue? Answer: 66 or 72 Solution: In one face 36 smaller cubes will be present. When red and blue are not adjacent 36*2=72 cubes will be painted with red or blue. When these colours are in adjacent faces, the six common cubes are to be subtracted giving 72-6=66 2. How many cubes are painted with red or blue or green? Answer: 91 or 96 Solution: When all three colours are adjacent to each other, we get 36 + 30 + 25 = 91 (We subtract the common cubes from 36 and hence 30 and 25) When one of the three colours is in between the other two, we get 36+30+30 = 96 3.

1. If Rs.24586 is to be divided among four persons A,B,C,D such that A:B = 3:4, B:C = 5:6 and C:D = 7:5, who will get the minimum amount? Answer: Person A Solution: A/B = 3/4     B/C = 5/6   C/D=7/5 Shortcut: The ratio of A:B:C:D is given as (n1*n2*n3) : (d1*n2*n3) : (d1*d2*n3) : (d1*d2*d3). Hence A:B:C:D = (3*5*7):(4*5*7):(4*6*7):(4*6*5) = 105:140:168:120 Hence A will get minimum amount. 2. Three cans contain equal quantities of alcohol and water in the ratios  6:1, 5:2 and 8:3 respectively. If the contents of all three cans are poured into a single vessel, the proportion of alcohol:water in the vessel is Answer: 59:18 Solution: Let the quantity of alcohol and water be 6x:x , 5y:2y and 8z:3z. Proportion of alcohol:water = (6x+5y+8z)/(x+2y+3z). --Eq1 As all the cans contain equal quantities of alcohol and water, 7x = 7y = 11z. Hence x=y and z=7y/11. Substituting in Eq1), the required proportion is (6y + 5y + 56y/11)/(y + 2y + 21y/11) = 177y/54y = 59:18 3. A...
