Answers :

1) Answer: a)

The share of P, Q and R,

= > [2x*3 + (2x + 5000)*9]: [5x*12]: [6x*8 + (6x – 10000)*4]

= 81: 180 : 208

= > [6x + 18x + 45000] : [60x] : [24x – 40000] = 81 : 180 : 208

= > [24x + 45000] : [60x] : [24x – 40000] = 81 : 180 : 208

According to the question,

(24x + 45000)/60x = 81/180

24x + 45000 = 27x

3x = 45000

X = 15000

The initial investment of P = 2x = Rs. 30000

2) Answer: c)

Here gain is the difference between simple interest and compound interest.

Difference = Sum*(r/100)²

= > 80000*(10/100)²

= > 80000*(1/100)

= > 800

Overall gain = Rs. 800

3) Answer: b)

Here work equal. So,

(10m + 21w)*12 = (8m + 12w)*18

20m + 42 w = 24 m + 36 w

6 w = 4 m

3 w = 2 m

1 m = (3/2) w

10m + 21w = 10*(3/2)w + 21w = 15w + 21w = 36w

12m + 10w = 12*(3/2)w + 10w = 18w + 10w = 28w

Women      days

36               12

28                ?

36*12 = 28*x

X = (36*12)/28 = 15 3/7 days

4) Answer: d)

Let the cost price of the item be x,

According to the question,

125 % of x – 90 % of x = 1400

35% of x = 1400

35x/100 = 1400

x = 1400*100/35

x = 4000

Cost price of the item = Rs. 4000

5) Answer: d)

Let the distance be x,

Speed of man in still water = 15 km/hr

Speed of stream = 7 km/hr

Speed of upstream = 15 – 7 = 8 km/hr

Speed of downstream = 15 + 7 = 22 km/hr

According to the question,

(x/22) + (x/8) = 7 ½

30x/(22*8) = 15/2

X = 44 Km

Directions (6-10):

Total population of City R = 343750

22 % of total Population of state = 343750

(22/100)*x = 343750

X = 343750*(100/22) = 1562500

6) Answer: d)

Total male population of all six cities,

= > 163125 + 138125 + 220000 + 95000 + 75625 + 165000

= > 856875

7) Answer: a)

Required % = {[(18 + 17) – (16 + 11)]/(16 + 11)}*100

= [(35- 27)/27]*100

= > (8/27)*100 = 29.63 % = 30 %

8) Answer: b)

The total female population of City T and U

= > 96250 + 85000 = 181250

The total male population of City Q and R

= > 138125 + 220000 = 358125

Required ratio = 181250: 358125 = 290: 573

9) Answer: c)

Total male population of all six cities,

= > 163125 + 138125 + 220000 + 95000 + 75625 + 165000

= > 856875

Total female population of all six cities

= > 1562500 – 856875 = 705625

Required difference = 856875 – 705625 = 151250

10) Answer: b)

The total male population of City R and S

= > 220000 + 95000 = 315000

Total female population of City Q and T

= > 127500 + 96250 = 223750

Required % = (315000/223750)*100 = 140 %
