  2. 27
  3. 36
  4. 64
  5. 56

Answers:

1) Answer: B

Originally, let the number of male and female in a committee be 5x and 6x respectively.

Their increased number is (112% of 5x) and (110% of 6x).

(112/100)*5 and (110/100)*6

=5.6 : 6.6

=56 : 66

=28 : 33

So, the required ratio = 28 : 33

2) Answer: B

4 times P’s share = 6 times Q’s share = 3 times R’s share

4*P = 6*Q

P/Q = 3/2

6*Q = 3*R

Q/R = ½

 

P : Q : R = 3 : 2 : 4

The sum of the total Salary,

3x+2x+4x=234

9x=234

X=234/9=26

Hence p gets =3x=3*26= Rs 78

3) Answer: B

Let the no. of 5p, 10p, 25 p coins be 3x, 3x & 5x respectively.

Then sum of their values = Rs. [(5*3x/100) + (10*3x /100) + (25*5x/100)]

=Rs. [(15x/100) + (30x /100) + (125x/100)]

=Rs. (15x+30x+125x / 100)

=Rs. (170x /100)

Therefore 170x / 100 = 34

X=34 *100/170

X=20

Hence the no. of 10p coins = 3x

=3*20

=60

4) Answer: D

Let the original salary of Naveena and Menaka be 6x and 5x respectively

Then, (6x+6000) / (5x+6000) = 38/35

35(6x+6000) = 38(5x +6000)

210x +210000 = 190x + 228000

210x – 190x = 228000 – 210000

20x = 18000

X=900

Menaka’s present salary = 5x

= 5*900 = Rs. 4500

5) Answer: D

Let the original salary of X & Y be 5x & 8x respectively

New salary of X = 40% of 5x

=140/100 * 5x

=700x /100

= 7x

New salary of Y = 85% of 8x

=185 /100 *8x

= 74x/5

Therefore 7x : 74x/5 = 10:9

7x*5/74x =10:9

We can’t find x, so the given data is inadequate

6) Answer: C

Let UG students be = 5x and

PG students be = 4x respectively

No. of those who do not get scholarship,

= 60% of 5x + 50% of 4x

= (60/100*5x) + (50/100*4x)

= 300x/100+ 200x /100

= 3x + 2x

= 5x

Required percentage = (5x/9x) *100

= 55.5%

7) Answer: B

Karan  :  Hari =5:3

Hari  :  Kowshik =5:3

Karan : Hari : Kowshik = 25:15:9

Therefore, the runs made by Karan,

=25/49*588

=25*12=300 runs

8) Answer: A

8A= 50B=> A/B=50/8

A : B= 50:8=>25:4

19C = 456

=>C=24

B=2*2C=4*24=96

4’S=96=>1’S=24

A=24*25=600

3A +4B=3*600+4*96=2184

9) Answer: B

Let the first and the third parts be 3x and 5x.

Second part = 1/4 of third part = (1/4) × 5x == 5x/4

Therefore, 3x + (5x/4) + 5x = 370

(12x + 5x + 20x)/4 = 370

37x/4 = 370

x = (370 × 4)/37

x = 10 × 4

x = 40

Therefore,

First part = 3x =3 × 40=120

Second part = 5x/4 =5 × 40/4=50

Third part = 5x =5 × 40=200

10) Answer: A

Two numbers are in the ratio of,

(1 ½): (2 2/3) =>3/2: 8/3 =>9:16 (9x, 16x)

1 2/3: 1 ½ =>5/3:5/2 =>2:3

9x+15/16x+15 =2/3

27x+45 = 32x+30

5x= 15

X=3

The larger of the numbers is, 16x= 48
