q 8 and 9 only answer if u know
Answers
8.let us do this by option verification
we know that the children should be in whole numbers
for ex: we can't have 4.5 children in total as 0.5 child is not possible (LOL)
(but it would be great to have 0.5 child....LOL)
ok so for the first option
we know that
mean=sum of children/number of families
x=sum of all the children/total number of children
1=x/5
x=5
so A is possible
for B
1.2=x/5
x=6
so B is also possible
for C
1.3=x/5
x=6.5
(see we found the 0.5 child...LOL)
as we know that 0.5 isn't possible so C is wrong
therefore our answer is C
9.let the circumference of circle be 18
so distance between tom and laura=9
let speed of laura be 8
therefore speed of tom is 9/8*8=9
relative velocity of tom with respect to laura=1
time=distance/speed
=9/1
=9
therefore our answer is C
(Sometimes assuming values makes the problem a lot more easier)
