15⟩ You have 5 jars of pills. Each pill weighs 10 gram, except for contaminated pills contained in one jar, where each pill weighs 9 gm. Given a scale, how could you tell which jar had the contaminated pills in just one measurement?

1]Suppose there are 5 jars and one physical balance,take any 4 out of them and place 2 jars on each side of the scale remains horizontal,then the remaining jar has the contaminated pills.

2] Else if the balance shifts to one side then the contaminated jar must be on the side which is lifted upwards.so remove one of the jars from either side. if the balance is still tilted to one side then the jar which is left on the side which is tilted is the contaminated jar.

3] If the balance becomes horizontal when you removed it, the jar you removed from the previously tilted jar is the required contaminated jar.

16⟩ One train leaves Los Angeles at 15mph heading for New York. Another train leaves from New York at 20mph heading for Los Angeles on the same track. If a bird, flying at 25mph, leaves from Los Angeles at the same time as the train and flies back and forth between the two trains until they collide, how far will the bird have traveled?

Actually they should mention distance between the two stations, but i searched in Internet and i found the distance between the stations is 2450 miles.

So the time taken for both trains to meet is

Time taken=distance between them/Relative speed of both trains in opp direction(Sum of speeds)=2450/35=70 hours.

so for these 70 hrs the bird will be travelling here and there. so distance traveled for 70 hrs = 70*25=1750 miles.

So answer is 1750 miles.

n(r)=38

n(b)=20

n(r & b) = 13

n(r+b) = n(r)+n(b)-n(r&b)

= 38+20-13

= 45 (flags with either red or blue)

total flags(study) = 45 + 8(neither red nor blue) = 53

red not blue = 38-13 = 25

blue not red = 20-13 = 7
