10). A retailer bought a luxury pen after getting a discount of 30% on the marked price. He sold the luxury pen to a customer for Rs.4536 and earned a profit of 20% on his cost price. What was the initial marked price of the luxury pen?
a) Rs.6200
b) Rs.5800
c) Rs.5600
d) Rs.5400
e) None of these
Explanation:
1). C)Total number of visitors in museum P and Q together on Saturday
= 140 x (105/100) + (60/100) x 85 = 140 x (21/20) + (3/5) x 85
= 147 + 51 = 198
2). B)Reqd % decrease
[(160 -112) / 160 ] x 100 = 48 x (5/8) = 30%
3). E)Reqd difference = (P + Q) — (M + N)
Tuesday = (145 + 167) — (121 + 115) = 312 – 236 = 76
4). B)Reqd ratio
= (N + P) Tuesday / (M + Q) Wednesday = (115+125) / (85 +167)
= 240/252 = 120/126 = 20/21 = 20 : 21
5). B)Reqd average
= (141+128+79) /3 = 348/3 = 116
6). C)Let the speed of the current be x kmph.
Then, downstream speed = 12 + x
Upstream speed = 12 – x
Now, [ 60 / (12+x) ] + [ 60 / (12 — x) ] = 11 + (15/60) =11 1/4
= 45/4
or, (60 x 12 – 60x + 60 x 12 + 60x) / (144 — x2) = 45/4
or, 1440 / (144 – x2) = 45/4
or, 32 / (144—x2) = 1/ 4
or, 128 = 144 — x2
or,x2= 144 — 128 = 16
.•. x = 4 kmph
7). A)Circumference of the circle A = 2ￗr
And diameter = 2r
Thus, 2r + 2ￗr = 174
or, 2r(1 + ￗ) = 174
or, r(1 + ￗ) = 87
r = 87 / [ 1 + (22/7)] = (87×7) / 29 = 21cm
Radius of the circle B = 21 — 7 = 14 cm
.•. Circumference of the circle B
= 2 x (22/7) x 14 =88 cm
8). C)
Now, B — C = 1122
Or, 168 — 100 = 1122
Or, 68 = 1122
120 = (1122/88) × 120 = 1980
9). E)
Now, (3x —25) / (x – 25) = 19/3
or, 19x – 25 x 19 = 9x – 25 x 3
or, 10x = 475 — 75 = 400
x = 40 litres
Hence the quantity of milk in Jar A was 3x
= 3 x 40 = 120 litres
10). D)Cost price of luxury pen = 4536 x (100/120)
= 4536 x (5/6) = 756 x 5 = 3780
Marked price = 3780 x (100/70) = 54 x100
= Rs.5400
