e) None of these

Answers :

1) Answer: c)

Let the sum be Rs. P,

[P*(1 + R/100)2 – P] = 10368

[P*(1 + 16/100)2 – P] = 10368

[P*(116/100)2 – P] = 10368

P*[(29/25)2 – 1] = 10368

P*[(841/625) – 1] = 10368

P*[216/625] = 10368

P = (10368*625)/216 = Rs. 30000

SI = PNR/100

= > (30000*8*4)/100

= > Rs. 9600

2) Answer: a)

The area of a rectangular plot = 432 sq cm

Lb = 432

Length = 3*Breadth

3b*b = 432

3b2 = 432

b2 = 432/3 = 144

b = 12 cm

l = 3*12 = 36 cm

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2*(l + b) = 2*(36 + 12) = 96 cm

The cost of fencing the plot = Rs. 8 per cm

Total cost = 96*8 = Rs. 768

3) Answer: d)

The share of Aravind, Kathir and Mani

[5x*1 + (5x + 30000)*2] : [ 3x*3] : [2x*2 + (2x + 20000)*1] = 57 : 27 : 22

[5x + 10x + 60000] : [9x] : [4x + 2x + 20000] = 57 : 27 : 22

(15x + 60000] : (9x) : (6x + 20000) = 57 : 27 : 22

= > (15x + 60000)/(9x) = (57/27)

= > 15x + 60000 = 19x

= > 4x = 60000

= > x = 15000

Initial investment of Kathir = 3x = Rs. 45000

4) Answer: b)

B is 6/5 times as efficient as A. So,

A and B’s work = > 6: 5

A can fill the 2/3 of the tank in 24 min

= > (2/3) * work = 24 min

= > Whole work = 36 min

A takes 36 min to fill the tank, So, B takes,

= > 6’s = 36

= > 1’s = 6

B can fill the tank in, 30 min

B can fill the tank independently for 10 min only.

B’s 10 min work = 10/30 = 1/3

Remaining = 1 – 1/3 =2/3

(2/3) of the tank will remain incomplete.

5) Answer: c)

(125/100)*CP1 = 2400

CP1 = 2400*(4/5) = Rs. 1920

(75/100)*CP2 = 2400

CP2 = 2400*(4/3) = Rs. 3200

Overall loss = (1920 + 3200) – (2400 + 2400) = 320

Loss % = (320/5120)*100 = 6.25 %

Direction (6-10) :

6) Answer: a)

The speed of train P on Monday = Distance/Time = 450/9 = 50 km/hr

The average speed of train P on Monday and Tuesday = 60 km/hr

Average speed = 2 *x*y/(x+y) = 60

2*50*y/(50+y) =60

100y = 3000 + 60y

40y = 3000

Y = 75 km/hr

The speed of train P on Tuesday = 75 Km/hr

The time taken to reach the destination by train P on Monday and Tuesday is same

The total distance travelled by train P on Tuesday

= > Speed*Time = 75*9 = 675 Km

7) Answer: d)

The speed of train P = 450/9 = 50 Km/hr

The speed of train Q = 640/8 = 80 Km/hr

The speed of train R = 820/10 = 82 Km/hr

The speed of train S = 780/13 = 60 Km/hr

The speed of train T = 960/12 = 80 Km/hr

The speed of train U = 840/14 = 60 Km/hr

The speed of faster train = 82 Km/hr

The speed of slower train = 50 Km/hr

Required % = (82/50)*100 = 164 %

8) Answer: b)

The speed of train T on Monday = 960/12 = 80 Km/hr

The speed of train T on Tuesday = 80*(120/100) = 96 Km/hr

The speed of train S on Monday = 780/13 = 60 Km/hr

The speed of train S on Tuesday = 60*(125/100) = 75 Km/hr

Required % = (96/75)*100 = 128 %

9) Answer: c)

The total distance covered by train A on Monday

= > 960*(140/100) = 1344 Km

The time taken by train A to reach the destination

= > 2*12 = 24 hr

The speed of train A = Distance/Time = 1344/24 = 56 Km/hr

10) Answer: b)

The speed of train P = 450/9 = 50 Km/hr

The speed of train Q = 640/8 = 80 Km/hr

The speed of train R = 820/10 = 82 Km/hr

The speed of train S = 780/13 = 60 Km/hr

The speed of train T = 960/12 = 80 Km/hr

The speed of train U = 840/14 = 60 Km/hr

The speed of train P, R and T together

= > (450/9) + (820/10) + (960/12)

= > 50 + 82 + 80 = 212 Km/hr

The speed of train Q, S and U together

= > (640/8) + (780/13) + (840/14)

= > 80 + 60 + 60 = 200 Km/hr

Required ratio = 212: 200 = 53: 50
