Coding & Aptitude Problems

Aptitude & Reasoning

Quantitative Aptitude

A train 150 m long is running at 45 km/hr. In what time will it pass a platform 150 m long?

// Solution: Total distance = 150 + 150 = 300 m
// Speed = 45 km/hr = 12.5 m/s
// Time = Distance / Speed = 300 / 12.5 = 24 seconds

Logical Reasoning

Find the odd one out: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 14, 17

// Solution: 14 is not a prime number, others are primes.
