Answers:

1) Answer: A

Let the Maximum marks be x,

Passing mark is equal for both the students. So,

= > (40/100)x + 5 = (50/100)x -10

= > (10/100)x = 15

= > x = 150

Maximum mark = 150

Passing marks = 150*(40/100) + 5 = 60 + 5 = 65

2) Answer: B

Total number of valid votes =(75/100)*884000 = 663000

Percentage of votes polled in favour of Raghu = 84%

Therefore, the number of valid votes polled in favour of Raghu= 84% of 663000

= 84/100 × 663000

= 556920

3) Answer: C

Yuva gave 25% of a certain amount of money to Ram

Ram=25% of Yuva

From the money Ram received, he spent 20% on buying books and 35% on buying a watch

Remaining=100-(20%+35%)= 45%

45% of amount= 2700

=>(45/100)* X=2700

=> X=6000

Ram’s Total amount=6000

Ram=25% of Yuva

6000=(25/100)*Yuva

=>Yuva = 24000

4) Answer: A

Worth of the product after 2 years

= > 264000 * (80/100) * (80/100)

= > 168960

Worth of the product 2 years ago

= > x*(80/100) * (80/100) = 264000

= > x = 264000*(100/80)*(100/80)

= > x = 412500

5) Answer: B

Percentage of candidates failed is,

=50+40 – 10

=80

Percentage failed in current affairs or aptitude or both = 80%

Hence percentage passed = (100 – 80) %

=20%

6) Answer: C

The maximum marks for each subject is 250

Moni’s Maths mark=83

Science Mark = 66% = (66/100)*250=165

The overall percentage of all three subjects together

=> 64%= (64/100)* 750= 480

Moni’s mark,

Maths + Science + English=480

=>83+165+English=480

=>English=480-248

=>English=232

7) Answer: A

Let thr price of a phone be Rs.x

Then price of a camera = x+2000

S0 3(x+2000)+3x = 24000

3x+6000+3x=24000

6x+6000 = 24000

6x = 24000 – 6000

X = 18000/6

X = 3000

Therefore cost of a phone = Rs.3000

Cost of a camera = Rs. (3000+2000)=Rs.5000

Required percentage = (5000 – 3000/5000*100) %

= (2000/5000)*100%

= 40 %

8) Answer: A

10P/100 = 30Q/100 ——1

20Q/100 = 40R/100 ——-2

From 1, P =3Q

From 2, Q = 2R (Here, R =4000)

Q = 2*4000 = 8000

P=3Q =3*8000 = 24000

Hence P+Q+R = 24000+8000+4000

=36000

Therefore the total income is Rs.36000

9) Answer: B

Let Maximum marks be x,

Then (20% of x) + 10 = (30% of x) – 25

(20/100*x)+10 = (30/100*x) – 25

(20x/100)+10 = 30x /100 – 25

10x/100 = 35

X = 350

So passing marks = (20% of 350)+10

= (20/100*350) + 10

=80

42 % of maximum marks

= > (350)*(42/100)

= > 147

10) Answer: A

Let original salary be Rs. x

Then saving = (20/100)x = x/5

Expenditure = (80/100)x = (4x/5)

New income = (140/100)x= (7x/5)

New saving = (20/100)x = (x/5)

New expenditure = (7x/5) – (x/5) = (6x/5)

Increase in expenditure = (6x/5) – (4x/5)

= (2x/5)

Increase % = [(2x/5)/(4x/5)]*100

=50%
