Answers :

1) Answer: c)

Let the number of passed students be x,

63*12 = 14x + (63 – x)*7

756 = 14x + 441 – 7x

756 – 441 = 7x

7x = 315

Total number of passed students (x) = 45

Shortcut:

= > 5 : 2

7’s = 63

1’s = 9

Total number of passed students = 5’s = 45

2) Answer: c)

Two pipes can fill an empty tank in = 3 hours 15 min = 3 15/60 = 3 1/4

But due to the leakage, it takes 45 min more,

So, Total time taken to fill the tank = 4 hours

Required number of hours = 4/13 – (1/4) = (16 – 13)/52 = 3/52

The leakage empty the full tank in 52/3 = 17 hours 20 min

3) Answer: c)

The investment of Agila, Manoj = 2 : 1

Agila’s investment = (4/7)* Prithika’s investment

The investment of Manoj and Prithika = 4 : 7

The investment of Agila, Manoj and Prithika = 8 : 4 : 7

Here, the period is not given. So,

The ratio of investment = The ratio of profit

Total profit = Rs. 123500

19’s = 123500

1’s = 6500

The share of Manoj = 4’s = Rs. 26000

4) Answer: b)

C.I = P*[(1 + (r/100))2 – 1]

7881.25 = P*[(1 + 5/100)3 – 1]

7881.25 = P*[(105/100)3 – 1]

7881.25 = P*[(21/20)3 – 1]

7881.25 = P*[(9261/8000) – 1]

7881.25 = P*(1261/8000)

7881.25*(8000/1261) = P

P = Rs. 50000

5) Answer: b)

They meet x hours after 8 a.m.

Distance covered by A in x hours = 30x km

Distance covered by B in (x – 1) hours = 45(x – 1) km

30x + 45(x – 1) = 180

30x + 45x = 180 + 45

75x = 225

X = 3

They meet at 11 a.m.

Direction (6-10) :

6) Answer: b)

The average sales value for all the given famous books in Mumbai = 136 lakhs

The total sales value for all the given famous books in Mumbai = 136*5 = 680 lakhs

Total sales value of book T in Mumbai

= > 680 – (124 + 150 + 136 + 142) = 128 lakhs

The total sales value of for all the given famous books together in Kolkata

= > 112 + 132 + 144 + 96 + 84 = 568 lakhs

Required ratio = 128 : 568 = 16 : 71

7) Answer: a)

The average sales value of the book R for all the given cities together = 130 lakhs

Total sales value of the book R for all the given cities together = 130*6 = 780 lakhs

Total sales value of book R in Delhi = Total sales value of book R in Chennai – 10 lakhs

C – D = 10 — > (1)

Total sales value of book R in Delhi and Chennai

= > 780 – (136 + 144 + 124 + 110)

= > 266 lakhs

C + D = 266 —-> (2)

By solving the equation (1) and (2), we get,

Total sales value of book R in Chennai = 138 lakhs

Total sales value of book R in Delhi = 128 lakhs

Required % = [(138 – 128)/138]*100 = 7 %

8) Answer: c)

Total sales value of all the given books in Patna = 547 lakhs

The total sales value of book P and S in Patna

= > 547 – (78 + 110 + 123)

= > 236 lakhs

S + P = 236 –à (1)

The total sales value of book S in Patna = 32 lakhs + The total sales value of book P in Patna

S – P = 32 –à (2)

By solving the equation (1) and (2),

The total sales value of book S in Patna = 134 lakhs

The total sales value of book P in Patna = 102 lakhs

The total sales value of book P in all the given cities together

= > (124 + 98 + 112 + 106 + 84 + 102) = 626 lakhs

The total sales value of book S in all the given cities together

= > (142 + 118 + 96 + 120 + 132 + 134) = 742 lakhs

Required difference = 742 – 626 = 116 lakhs

9) Answer: b)

The total sales value in Kolkata of all the given famous books together

= > 112 + 132 + 144 + 96 + 84 = 568 lakhs

The total sales value in Lucknow of all the given famous books together

= > 84 + 116 + 124 + 132 + 140 = 596 lakhs

Required % = [(596 – 568)/596]*100

= > 5 % less

10) Answer: a)

The average sales values of book Q, R and S together in Delhi = 116 lakhs

The total sales values of book Q, R and S together in Delhi = 116*3 = 348 lakhs

The total sales value of book R in Delhi = 348 – (102 + 118) = 128 lakhs
