Answers :
Direction (1-5) :
1) Answer: a)
The ratio of upstream speed and downstream speed = 4: 5 (4x, 5x)
Speed of the stream = (5x – 4x)/2 = 0.5x
(i.e.) 9 = 0.5x
x = 18
Upstream speed = 18 * 4 = 72kmph
Required distance = 72 * 2 = 144 km
2) Answer: d)
Let the speed and length of the train be x and y
Then
y + 450 = x * 5/18 * 80 —–(1)
y = x * 5/18 * 20 —- (2)
sub (2) in (1)
(x * 5/18 * 20) + 450 = x * 5/18 * 80
(x * 5/18 * 80) – (x * 5/18 * 20) = 450
x * 5/18 * 60 = 450
x = 27 kmph
y = 27 * 5/18 * 20 = 150 m
3) Answer: b)
Pipe A and B ‘s one hour work,
A – B = 1/36
(i.e.) 1/9 – 1/x = 1/36
B ‘s one hour work,
1/x = 3/36 = 1/12
Pipe B alone empty the tank in 12 hours.
4) Answer: a)
A and B = 1: 2
B and C = 3: 4
The ratio of A, B and C= 3: 6: 8
Total profit = 600/2 * 17 =Rs 5100
5) Answer: d)
The ratio of ages of A and B 3 years ago = 2: 3 (2x, 3x)
(2x + 6)/(3x + 6) = ¾
8x + 24 = 9x + 18
x = 6
Age of A = 2 * 6 + 3 = 15years
Age of B = 3 * 6 + 3 = 21years
Average age = (15 + 21)/2 = 18years
Direction (6-10) :
6) Answer: b)
Number of boys in school T = 2400 × 14/100 = 336
Ratio between number of boys to number of girls in school “T” = 7: 8
Number of girls in school T = 7x = 8 × 336
Number of girls in school T = 384
7) Answer: d)
Required percentage = (20 – 14)/14 * 100
= 6/14 * 100
= 300/7 = 42 (6/7)% more
8) Answer: a)
Average number of boys in school Q, R and S = (9 + 15 + 24)/3 = 16%
= 16/100 * 2400 = 384
9) Answer: e)
Required angle = x * 100 = 18 * 360
Required angle = 64.80
10) Answer: b)
Total number of boys in school “P” = 20/100 * 2400 = 480
Total number of boys in school “Q” = 9/100 * 2400 = 216
Difference = 480 – 216 = 264
