Answers:

Directions (1-5):

1) Answer: c)

Quantity I:

Area of the square = a2 = 324

Side of the square (a) = 18m

Length of the rectangle = 54m

Breadth= 44m

Area of the rectangle = 54*44= 2376 Sq. m

Quantity II:

The perimeter of a rectangle = 212 m

2(l + b) = 212

l + b = 106 —> (1)

l – b = 18 —> (2)

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

Length = 62 m, Breadth = 44 m

Area of the rectangle = 62*44 = 2728 Sq. m

Quantity I < Quantity II

2) Answer: a)

Quantity I:

Downstream speed= 64/8 = 8 km/hr

Upstream speed= 8*(3/4) = 6 km/hr

Speed of boat in still water = ½ *(8+6) = 7 km/hr

Quantity II:

Downstream speed= 72/8= 9 km/hr

Downstream speed = Speed of boat in still water + speed of stream

Let the speed of boat be x

=> x + 3 = 9

=> x= 6 km/hr

Speed of boat in still water = 6 km/hr

Quantity I > Quantity II

3) Answer: c)

Quantity I:

T= D/S

T = (250 + 200)/[(40 + 60)*5/18]

T = 450/(100*(5/18)) = 16.2 sec

Quantity II:

T = D/S

T = (170 + 180)/[(80 – 60)*(5/18)]

T = 350/(20*(5/18))

T = 63 sec

Quantity I < Quantity II

4) Answer: c)

Quantity I:

Present age of Anitha = 15 + Present age of Rahul

After 10 years, The ratio of ages of Rahul and Anitha = 7 : 10(7x, 10x)

10x – 10 = 15 + 7x – 10

10x – 10 = 7x + 5

3x = 15

X = 5

The age of Anitha, after 4 years = 10x – 6 = 50 – 6 = 44 years

Quantity II:

The ratio of present age of Naveen and Priyanka = 3 : 1

The ratio of present age of Gourav and Priyanka = 5 : 3

The present age of Naveen, Priyanka and Gourav = 9 : 3 : 5

The age of Gourav, after 6 years = 21 years

The present age of Gourav = 15 years

5’s = 15

1’s = 3

Required sum = 17*3 = 51 years

Quantity I < Quantity II

5) Answer: e)

Percentage of interest received from these schemes

= 5340*100/35600

= 15%

By the rule of allegation,

= > 1 : 1

2’s = 35600

1’s = 17800

Quantity I:

Sum of money invested in scheme A= Rs. 17800

Quantity II:

Sum of money invested in scheme B = Rs. 17800

Quantity I = Quantity II

Directions (6-10):

6) Answer: c)

Let the yellow ball be X,

Probability of getting one yellow ball = 1/7

XC1/(12 + X)C1 = 1/7

X/(12 + X) = 1/7

7X = 12 + X

6X = 12

X = 2

Yellow balls in bag A = 2 balls

Total probability = 14C3

The probability of getting at least one pink ball

= > 1 – P(none is pink ball)

Probability of getting none is pink ball

= > 11C3 /14C3 = 165/364

The probability of getting at least one pink ball

= > 1 – (165/364) = 199/364

7) Answer: a)

Let the white ball be X,

Probability of getting one yellow ball = 1/3

5C1/(12 + X)C1 = 1/3

5/(12 + X) = 1/3

15 = 12 + X

X = 3

The total white balls in bag C = 3

Total probability = 15C4

Required probability = 3C1 and 5C1 and 4C1 and 3C1

The probability of getting different color balls

= > [3C1 and 5C1 and 4C1 and 3C1]/15C4

= > 12/91

 8) Answer: d)

Let the black ball be X,

Probability of getting one yellow ball = 1/5

4C1/(15 + X)C1 = 1/5

4/(15 + X) = 1/5

20 = 15 + X

X = 5

Total number of black balls = 5

Total probability = 20C4

Required probability = 5C2 and 15C

The probability of getting 2 pink balls from bag D

= > (5C2 and 15C)/20C4

= > 70/323

 9) Answer: b)

Let the pink ball in bag B be X,

Probability of getting one yellow ball = 3/10

6C1/(13 + X)C1 = 3/10

6/(13 + X) = 3/10

13 + X = 20

X = 7

The total number of pink ball in bag B = 7 balls

Total balls in bag B = 5 + 6 + 7 + 2 = 20

Let the yellow ball in bag E be Y,

Probability of getting one yellow ball = 1/5

YC1/(12 + Y)C1 = 1/5

Y/(12 + Y) = 1/5

5Y = 12 + Y

4Y = 12

Y = 3

The total number of yellow ball in bag E = 3 balls

Total balls in bag E = 3 + 3 + 5 + 4 = 15

Required ratio = 20: 15 = 4: 3

 10) Answer: a)

Let the pink ball in bag B be X,

Probability of getting one yellow ball = 3/10

6C1/(13 + X)C1 = 3/10

6/(13 + X) = 3/10

13 + X = 20

X = 7

The total number of pink ball in bag B = 7 balls

Total number of pink balls in all the bags together

= > 3 + 7 + 4 + 5 + 5 = 24

Let the yellow ball in bag A be Y,

Probability of getting one yellow ball = 1/7

YC1/(12 + Y)C1 = 1/7

Y/(12 + Y) = 1/7

7Y = 12 + Y

6Y = 12

Y = 2

Yellow balls in bag A = 2 balls

Let the yellow ball in bag E be Z,

Probability of getting one yellow ball = 1/5

ZC1/(12 +Z)C1 = 1/5

Z/(12 + Z) = 1/5

5Z = 12 + Z

4Z = 12

Z = 3

The total number of yellow ball in bag E = 3 balls

Total number of yellow balls in all the bags together

= > 2 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 = 20

Required % = (24/20)*100 = 120 %
