Answers:

1.Answer c

Let the total number of girls in the class be x,

15x + (20*18) = (x+18)*18

15x+360 = 18x+324

36 = 3x

X =12

Total girls in the class is 12

Shortcuts:

3’s = 18

1’s = 6

Total number of girls in the class = 2’s = 12

2.Answer a

Let the total number of subjects be x,

Average = Sum/n

(85x + 20 + 12)/x = 89

85x + 32 = 89x

4x = 32

X = 8

Total number of subjects = 8

3.Answer d

Let the number of clerks in the company be x,

800*30 + 240*x = 300(30 + x)

24000 + 240x = 9000 + 300x

15000 = 60x

X = 15000/60 = 250

Total number of clerks in the company = 250

Shortcuts:

= > 3: 25

3’s = 30

1’s = 10

Total number of clerks in the company = 25’s = 250

4.Answer b

Total age of 25 students = 25*20 = 500

Total age of 25 students and teacher = 26*21 = 546

Age of the teacher= 546 – 500 = 46 years

Shortcut:

N       Average

25      20

26      21

If both n and Average increased by 1, then the age of the teacher is,

= > (25 + 21) or (26 + 20) = 46 years

5.Answer c

Correct Average = [(20*105) – (75 + 91) + (68 + 108)]/20

= > 105.5 cm

6.Answer a

Let the number of passed students be x,

45*12 = 14x + (45 – x)*5

540 = 14x + 225 – 5x

540 – 225 = 9x

9x = 315

X = 35

Total number of passed students = 35

Shortcut:

= > 7: 2

9’s = 45

1’s = 5

Total number of passed students = 7’s = 35

7.Answer d

Average = 2.2, Number of people (n) = 20

Average = Total sum/n

Total weight increased = 2.2*20 = 44 kg

Weight of new man = 44 + 53 = 97 kg

8.Answer b

Let the number of newly joined students be x,

According to the question,

52*5 = (52 + x)*4

260 = 208 + 4x

52 = 4x

X = (52/4) = 13

9.Answer c

Total weight of 50 students = 50*60

New weight = (50*60) – 74 – 66 + 66 + 54 = (50*60) – 20

New average = (3000 – 20)/50 = 59.60 kg

10.Answer a

Sum of 5 numbers = 120*5 = 600

Sum of first two numbers = 125*2 = 250

Sum of last two numbers = 130*2 = 260

Third number = 600 – (250 + 260)

= > 600 – 510 = 90
