Answers :

1) Answer: E

MP of keyboard = 14x

MP of mouse = 15x

SP of keyboard = 14x – 400

SP of mouse = 15x – 500


2) Answer: B

Shilpa + Smitha + Kanna = 29 * 3 – 9 = 78 years

Kanna = x

Smitha =4x

Shilpa = 8/9 * (4x – 9) + 9

x + 4x + 8/9 * (4x – 9) + 9 = 78

77x = 693

x = 9

Present age of Shilpa = 8/9 * (4 * 9 – 9) + 9 = 33 years


3) Answer: D

Ajith = 1/45

Vijay alone complete the work = 4/3 * 45 = 60

Surya alone complete the work = 1/20 – 1/45 – 1/60

= 9 – 4 – 3/180

= 1/90

Work done by Ajith, Vijay and Surya = 1/45:1/60:1/90

= 4:3:2

Required wages = 2/9 * 36000 = 8000


4) Answer: A

770 = 1/3 * 22/7 * x * x * 15

x = 7

Radius of the cylinder = 7 * 2 = 14 cm

7392 = 22/7 * 14 * 14 * h

Height of the cylinder = 12 cm


5) Answer: B

Let the total number of products in the showroom = x.

Now,

14*220 + 100(x-14) = 120x

3080 + 100x -1400 =120x

20x = 1680

x = 84


6) Answer: B

Time ratio of A and B = 3:4

1/3x + 1/30 = 1/10

1/3x = 1/15

x = 5

B = 4 * 5 = 20

A and B together can fill the tank = 1/15 – 1/20 = 1/60


7) Answer: A

x * 6 * R/100 = x * 190/100 – x

6R= 90

R = 15%

CI = 4800 * (1 + 15/100)3 – 4800

= Rs.2500.2


8) Answer: B

Speed of boat = x

Speed of stream = y

x – y = 9 —-(1)

168/(x * 80/100 + y * 150/100) = 8

4x/5 + 3y/2 = 21

8x + 15y = 210 —-(2)

From (1) and (2)

23y = 138

y = 6 kmph


9) Answer: D

Length of train A = x

Length of bridge = x

2x = 60 * 5/18 * 42

x = 350 m

350 + Length of train B = 72 * 5/18 * 40

Length of train B = 450 m


10) Answer: D

Let the number of toffees of Selva, Gayathri, and Suba be 3x, x, and 4x respectively

3x+x+4x= 8x = 560

x= 560/8 = 70

Required difference = 3x-x = 2x =2*70 = 140
