Statement I:Â The number of females is 200 less than half the number of males.
Statement II:Â The number of females is 1/5 of the number of males.
Answers :
1) Answer: C
MP = SP/(100 – D%) * 100
= 1820/(100 – 35) * 100
= Rs.2800
2) Answer: C
14 * 14 = 14 * 7 + 7 * x
=> x = 14
Number of extra days = 14 – 7 = 7 days
3) Answer: A
Required ratio = (5 * 4): (6 * 3): (8 * 6)
= 20: 18: 48
= 10: 9: 24
4) Answer: B
Speed in still water = 4.8 kmph and Speed of stream = y kmph
d/(4.8 – y) = 2d/(4.8 + y)
=> y = 1.6 kmph
5) Answer: B
Probability that none is white =Â 8C3/12C3
= (8 * 7 * 6)/(12 * 11 * 10)
= 14/55
Required probability = 1 – 14/55 = 41/55
6) Answer: D
CI = P[(1 + r/100)t – 1]
=> 4488 = P[(1 + 4/100)2 – 1]
=> P = Rs.55000
SI = Pnr/100
= 55000 * 2 * 4/100
= Rs.4400
7) Answer: B
Distance = Speed * time = 42 * 20/60 = 14 km
Speed to cover 14km in 25 min = 14/(25/60) = 33.6kmph
8) Answer: C
Time taken by the trains to cross each other = (t1 * x + t2 * y)/(x + y)
= (6 * 8 + 6 * 5)/(8 + 5)
= (48 + 30)/13
= 6 seconds
9) Answer: C
Milk = 35/7 * 3 = 15 liters
Water = 35/7 * 4 = 20 liters
15/(20 + x) = 5/8
=> x = 4 liters
10) Answer: B
From I =>
Number of males = x and Number of females = x/2 – 200
This statement is not sufficient to answer the question.
From II =>
Number of females = 1/5 * y
Required ratio = y/(1/5 * y) = 5: 1
This statement is sufficient to answer the question.
Hence, statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
