Answers :
Direction (1-5) :
1) Answer: a)
Ratio of efficiency of Livingston and Raju= 4:3
Then work done by Livingston= 4x units and work done by Raju=3x units
Since, 50% of the work completed in 40 days, 100% of the work will be completed in 80 days.
If they both work together, 7x units will be completed in two days.
So in 80 days, 80/2*7x units will be completed.
Hence the whole work will be completed by Livingston= (80*7x)/(2*4x)
= 70 days.
2) Answer: c)
Let the number of days be x.
Then 7*8*20=4*7*x
x= 40 days
3) Answer: c)
Possibility of getting number =
(1,3),(1,5),(2,2),(2,4),(2,6),(3,1),(3,3),(3,5),(3,6),(4,2),(4,4),(4,5),(4,6),(5,1),(5,3),(5,4),(5,5),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,6)
Thus probability of getting composite number=21/36=7/12
4) Answer: b)
Let the amount invested by the person in the first part be Rs x.
Then, Remaining amount= 40000-x
According to the question,
[(x*10*2)/100] + (40000-x) [(1+(20/100)2-1)] = 8580(x/5)+ (40000-x) (11/25) = 8580
After solving this we get x= Rs 37583
5) Answer: a)
Given that Marked price- Cost price= Rs 2600
Then 2600= profit + discount
Thus profit= 2600-1000= 1600
(i.e.) 20% of the profit= Rs 1600
Then 25% of the profit= (1600/20)*25
= Rs 2000
Direction (6-10) :
6) Answer: a)
Total number of female mobile users of MOTO and OPPO brands in the city P and T together
= > [17*(48/100) + 19*(64/100) + 15*(40/100) + 18*(68/100)] thousands
= > [8.16 + 12.16 + 6 + 12.24] thousands
= > 38560
Total number of male mobile users of OPPO and VIVO brands in the city Q and R together
= > [12*(61/100) + 17*(32/100) + 24*(46/100) + 26*(35/100)] thousands
= > [7.32 + 5.44 + 11.04 + 9.10] thousands
= > 32900
Required % = (38560/32900)*100 = 117.2 % = 117 %
7) Answer: c)
The total female mobile users of MOTO and VIVO brands of city Q and R together
= > [13*(56/100) + 17*(68/100) + 21*(47/100) + 26*(65/100)] thousands

= > 45610
The total female mobile users of OPPO and VIVO brands of city S and T together
= > [20*(55/100) + 23*(45/100) + 18*(68/100) + 24*(64/100)] thousands
= > [11 + 10.35 + 12.24 + 15.36] thousands
= > 48950
Required ratio = 45610: 48950 = 4561: 4895

= > [8.84 + 6.84 + 10.08 + 5.72 + 7.32 + 5.44 + 11.13 + 11.04 + 9.10] thousands
= > 75510
The total female mobile users of all the given brands for city R, S and T together
= > [21*(47/100) + 24*(54/100) + 26*(65/100) + 18*(64/100) + 20*(55/100) + 23*(45/100) + 15*(40/100) + 18*(68/100) + 24*(64/100)] thousands
= > [9.87 + 12.96 + 16.9+ 11.52 + 11 + 10.35 + 6 + 12.24 + 15.36] thousands
= > 106200
Required difference = 106200-75510 = 30690
9) Answer: d)
Total number of mobile users of city R and S together for all the given brands
= > [21 + 24 + 26 + 18 + 20 + 23] thousands

Total number of mobile users of city P, Q and T together for all the given brands
= > [17 + 19 + 21 + 13 + 12 + 17 + 15 + 18 + 24] thousands

Required % = [(156000 – 132000)/156000]*100 = 15.38 % = 15 % less
10) Answer: c)
Total male mobile users of OPPO brands in all the given cities together
= > [19*(36/100) + 12*(61/100) + 24*(46/100) + 20*(45/100) + 18*(32/100)] thousands
