Answers :
1) Answer: a)
5 years ago, the ratio of age of the father and his son = 3: 1(3x, x)
7 years hence, the ratio of age of the father and his son = 9: 4
According to the question,
(3x + 12)/(x + 12) = (9/4)
12x + 48 = 9x + 108
3x = 60
x = 20
The present age of the father and his son = (3x + 5), (x + 5) = 65, 25
The average Present age of the father, mother, son and daughter = 40
Total Present age of the father, mother, son and daughter = 40*4 = 160
Total present age of the mother and her daughter = 160 – 90 = 70
Let the present age of mother and daughter be A and B respectively,
A + B = 70 —Ã (1)
A – B = 34 —à (2)
By solving the equation (1) and (2),
A = 52, B = 18
The present age of the daughter = 18 years
2) Answer: c)
The share of P, Q and R
= > [6x*5 + (6x – 4000)*7]: [8x*12]: [7x*7 + (7x + 2000)*5]
= 130: 192: 173
= > [30x + 42x – 28000]: [96x]: [49x + 35x + 10000] = 130: 192: 173
= > [72x – 28000]: [96x] : [84x + 10000] = 130 : 192 : 173
According to the question,
= > 96x/(84x + 10000) = (192/173)
= > 173x = 168x + 20000
= > 5x = 20000
= > x = 4000
The share of R = 7x = Rs. 28000
3) Answer: c)
Let the cost price be x,
SP = 600*(80/100) = Rs. 480
Profit (P) = SP – CP = 480 – x
The cost price of the article is increased by 10 %, and then the profit becomes half while comparing with the original profit
According to the question,
P/2 = 480 – [x*(110/100)]
(480 – x)/2 = 480 – 11x/10
(480 – x)/2 = (4800 – 11x)/10
2400 – 5x = 4800 – 11x
6x = 2400
X = 400
The cost price of the article = Rs. 400
4) Answer: b)
Three pipes A, B and C can fill a tank in 12 hours.
A, B and C’s 1 hour work = 1/12
A, B and C’s 4 hour work = 4/12 = 1/3
Remaining work= 1 – (1/3) = 2/3
The remaining part will be filled by A and B in 12 hours. Then,
= > (2/3) *(A+B) = 12
= > (A+B)’s whole work= 12*(3/2) = 18 hrs
(A + B)’s 1 hour work= 1/18
A, B and C’s 1 hour work = 1/12
C’s 1 hour work = (A+B+C) – (A+B)
= > (1/12) – (1/18)
= > 1/36
C can fill the tank in 36 hours.
5) Answer: d)
Total work = men*days
Total units of work = 18*10 = 180 units
Work done in 4 days = 18*4 = 72 units
Remaining work = 180 – 72 = 108 units
Let the number of men left after 4 days be x,
According to the question,
108/9 = 18 – x
12 = 18 – x
X = 6 men
After 4 days from the start of the work, 6 men left the job.
Direction (6-10) :
6) Answer: d)
Total investment of Moni in scheme C
= > 74000*(60/100)
Total investment of Priya in scheme C
= > 74000*(40/100)
The difference between the interest earned by Moni and Priya from scheme C after 3 years = Rs. 3552
= > 74000*(60/100)*3*(r/100) – 74000*(40/100)*3*(r/100) = 3552
= > [(74000*3*r)/(100*100)]*(60 – 40) = 3552
= > (74000*3*r*20)/10000 = 3552
= > r = 35520000/(74000*3*20) = 8 %
7) Answer: b)
Total investment of Moni in Scheme A
= > 82000*(65/100) = Rs. 53300
Total investment of Priya in Scheme A
= > 82200 – 53300 = Rs. 28700
The interest earned by Moni in Scheme A
= > 53300*(115/100)*(115/100) – 53300
= > 70489.25 – 53300 = Rs. 17189.25
The interest earned by Priya in Scheme A
= > 28700*(115/100)*(115/100) – 28700
= > 37955.75 – 28700 = Rs. 9255.75
Required sum = 17189.25 + 9255.75 = Rs. 26445
8) Answer: a)
The amount invested by Moni in Scheme E = The amount invested by Moni in Scheme P
= > 60000*(48/100) = Rs. 28800
The total interest earned by Moni in Scheme E and P together = Rs. 11808
According to the question,
= > 28800*[(1 + r/100)2 – 1] + (28800*2*r)/100 = 11808
= > {[28800*(100 + r)2]/(100*100)} – 28800 + 576r = 11808
= > (288/100)*(100 + r)2 + 576r = 40608
= > 288*[(100 + r)2 + 200r] = 4060800
= > (10000 + 200r + r2 + 200r) = 4060800/288
= > r2 + 400r + 10000 = 14100
= > r2+ 400r – 4100 = 0
= > (r – 10) (r + 410) = 0
= > r = 10, -410
Rate of interest per annum(r) = 10 %
9) Answer: c)
The amount invested by Moni in scheme D
= > 90000*(52/100) = Rs. 46800
The amount invested by Priya in Scheme B
= > 66000*(45/100) = Rs. 29700
The total interest earned by Moni and Priya in Scheme D and Scheme B after one year,
= > 46800*(106/100)*(106/100) – 46800 + (29700*15*1)/100
= > 52584.48 – 46800 + 4455
=>5784.48 + 4455
= > Rs. 10239.48
Required average = (10239.48/2) = Rs. 5119.74
10) Answer: d)
The amount invested by Moni in scheme A, C and D together
= > 82000*(65/100) + 74000*(60/100) + 90000*(52/100)
= > 53300 + 44400 + 46800 = Rs. 144500
The amount invested by Priya in Scheme B, E and F together
= > 66000*(45/100) + 60000*(52/100) + 85000*(46/100)
= > 29700 + 31200 + 39100 = Rs. 100000
Required ratio = 144500: 100000 = 289: 200
