 Q.1

a. A contractor contract to build house in 3 days. He employed

10 men to build the house. After 20 days, they completed

only 1/ 3 of the total work. How many more men will be

required to finish the remaining work within due time.

Solution :

Find the number of man-hrs. to complete 1/4 of the job

20 * 10 = 200 man-days
therefore
3 * 200 = 600 man-days required to complete the job.
Let m, = no. of additional men required to complete the job in the
remaining 20 days
10(m + 10) = 600
10m + 100 = 600
10m = 600 - 100
10m = 500
m = 500/10
m = 50 additional men required to finish the job.
Answer

b. The total annual income of Mrs. Marium is Rs.555000.

The exempted amount of her income tax is Rs. 190,000.
Calculate her income tax @ 5%. If she is given rebate Rs,
4500 and Rs. 500 has already been deducted at some sources
as income tax.

Solution :

Total income = 555000

Exemption = 190000
Income tax = 5%
Rebate = 4500
Deducted = 500
Taxable income = 555000 – 190000 = 365000
Tax @ 5% = 5 / 100 * 365000 = Rs. 18250
Deduction = 18250 – 4500 – 500 = 13250
Tax Payable = Rs. 13250
Answer

Q.2 A= {1,2,3,4,5} B= {6,7,8,9,10} and U=

{1,2,3………….10}. Prove De Morgan’s law and

verify them by using Venn diagrams.

Solution :

(AUB)’ = A’ ∩B’

AUB = {1,2,3….10}

U – (AUB) = Empty………………1

A’ = U-A = {6,7,8,9,10}

B’ = U-B = {1,23,4,5}

A’∩B’ = Empty……………….2

From 1 and 2 (AUB)’ = A’ ∩B’

(A∩B)’ = A’ UB’

A∩B = Empty

U- (A∩B)) = {1,2,3…………,10} ………………….1

A’ UB’ = {1,2,3….10} ………………….2

From 1 and 2 (A∩B)’ = A’ UB’
