Answers :
Direction (1-5) :
1) Answer: b)
Mani’s share = Rs. 3570
Naveen’s share = 3570*(4/5) = Rs. 2856
85 % of the total profit = [3570 + 2856]
Total profit = (6426/85)*100 = Rs. 7560
2) Answer: d)
Total work = 15*8 = 120 work
3 days work = 15*3 = 45 work
Remaining work = 120 – 45 = 75 work
Required days = 75/12 = 6 ¼ days
3) Answer: c)
Total probability n(S) = 10C3
n(E) = 6C2 and 4C1
P(E) = n(E) / n(S) = (6C2 and 4C1) / 10C3 = 1/2
4) Answer: a)
Pranav’s score = 578 marks,
Seetha = 68 % = Pranav’s score – 34
Seetha = 578 – 34 = 544 = 68 % of total marks
(68 / 100) * x = 544
x = 544 * (100 / 68) = 800
Minimum passing marks = 35 % of total marks
= > (35 / 100) * 800 = 280
5) Answer: d)
The average ages of two persons A and B = 25 years
Total ages of two persons A and B = 50 years
8 years ago, the ratio of their ages = 5 : 12 (5x, 12x)
According to the question,
17x + 16 = 50
17x = 34
x = 2
The difference between their ages = 12x – 5x = 7x = 14 years
Direction (6-10) :
6) Answer: b)
Number of items produced by company A, C and E together in 2014
= > 1750 + 1500 + 750 = 4000
Number of items produced by company B, C and D together in 2015
= > 3000 + 500 + 1750 = 5250
Required percentage = (4000 / 5250) * 100 = 76.19 % = 80 %
7) Answer: a)
Total number of items produced by company A in all the given years
= > 1750 + 2250 + 1250 = 5250
Total number of items produced by company B in all the given years
= > 2000 + 3000 + 1500 = 6500
Required average = (5250 + 6500) / 2 = 5875
8) Answer: c)
Number of items sold by all the companies in 2014
= > 1750 + 2000 + 1500 + 1250 + 750 = 7250
Number of items sold by company C in all the years together
= > 1500 + 500 + 2250 = 4250
Required percentage = [(7250 – 4250) / 4250] * 100 = 70.58% = 70 %
9) Answer: a)
Total number of items sold by all the companies in 2015
= > 2250 + 3000 + 500 + 1750 + 2500 = 10000
Total number of items sold by all the companies in 2016
= > 1250 + 1500 + 2250 + 2000 + 1000 = 8000
Required difference = 10000 – 8000 = 2000
10) Answer: d)
Total number of items sold by companies B, E in 2014
= > 2000 + 750 = 2750
Total number of items sold by companies A and D in 2016
= > 1250 + 2000 = 3250
Required ratio = 2750 : 3250 = 11 : 13
