Can you find the least possible number such that
If the number is divided by 3 , it gives the remainder of 1;
If the number is divided by 4 , it gives the remainder of 2
If the number is divided by 5 , it gives the remainder of 3;
If the number is divided by 6 , it gives the remainder of 4.
58.
Approach
LCM of the numbers 3,4,5 & 6 is 60.
So if i divide 60 by any of the four number , it gives remainder as 0.
Now to get reminder as desired, is should be 2 short of 60. (3-1,4-2,5-3,6-4 )

Lavesh, Bolt, and Lewis race each other in a 100 meters race. All of them run at a constant speed throughout the race.
Lavesh beats Bolt by 20 meters.
Bolt beats Lewis by 20 meters.
How many meters does Lavesh beat Lewis by ?
Lavesh beats Lewis by 36 meters.
It is tempting to guess that Lavesh beats Lewis by 40 meters, but when Lavesh finishes and is 20 meters ahead of Bolt, Bolt is NOT 20 meters ahead of Lewis (he's only 16 meters ahead), and it will take a couple more seconds before Bolt increases his lead over Lewis to 20 meters.
To figure out the answer, we let Lavesh's speed be A meter/second. So it takes him 100/A seconds to finish the race. At this point, we know that Bolt has run 80 meters (since Lavesh beats him by 20 meters). So Bolt runs 80 meters in 100/A seconds, meaning that he is running at a speed of (80/(100/A)) meters/second, or (8A/10) meters per second.
So we then know that it takes Bolt 100/(8A/10) seconds to finish the race, or 125/A seconds. At this point, we know that Lewis has run 80 meters (since Bolt beats him by 20 meters). So Lewis runs 80 meters in 125/A seconds, meaning that he is running at a speed of (80/(125/A)) meters/second, or 80A/125 meters per second.
Now that we know Lewis's speed, we just need to figure out how far he had run when Lavesh finished the race. Since Lavesh finished in 100/A seconds, we can determine that Lewis had run (100/A) * (80A/125) = 8000/125 = 64 meters when Lavesh finished the race. And so Lavesh beat him by (100 - 64) = 36 meters.

I organized a small get together at my home.
In the party , i have a barrel with some whiskey in it.
Suddenly Guest 1 say 'I bet this barrel of whiskey is more than half full'.
'No, its less than half full' Guest 2 replied.
I don't have any measuring instrument and without removing whiskey from it , how can i determine which of the guest is right ?
Tilt the barrel until the whiskey barely touches the lip of the barrel. If the bottom of the barrel is visible then it is less than half full.If the barrel bottom is still completely covered by the whiskey, then it is more than half full.

Manish drive to his office at 20km/hr. After reaching office, he realize that today is a holiday of 'Labor Day'.He went back at average speed of 30km/hr. Discounting the time spent in the stoppage what was his average speed of his journey ?
24km/hr (not 25km/hr which might be guessed by many)
D : distance traveled
T1 : time of going to office
T2 : time of returning back
Y : Average Speed
D = 20 * T1
T1 = D/20
D = 30 * T2
T2 = D/30
2D = Y(T2 + T1)
2D = Y(D/20 + D/30)
2D = Y(3D/60 + 2D/60)
2D = Y(5D/60)
Y = 120D/5D
=> Y = 24
