Answers:
Directions (1-5):
1) Answer: b)
Quantity I:
According to the question,
One day work of Nithya and Priya together = (1/15) + (1/18)
= 11/90
Thus number of days taken by Kalai to complete the work = (90/11) * (11/5)
= 18 days
Quantity II:
Efficiency ratio of A and B = 600: 500 = 6: 5
Time ratio of A and B = 5: 6 = 5x : 6x
According to the question,
1/5x + 1/6x = 11/120
11/30x = 11/120
x = 4
Number of days taken by B alone = 6 * 4 = 24 days
Quantity III:
(P+ Q)’s one day work = 3/20
(Q+R)’s one day work = 1/6
(R+S)’s one day work = 1/10
R’s one day work = 1/10 – 1/30 = (3 – 1)/30 = 2/30 = 1/15
Q’s one day work = 1/6 – 1/15 = (5 – 2)/30 = 3/30 = 1/10
P’s one day work = 3/20 – 1/10 = (3 – 2)/20 = 1/20
P can complete the work in 20 days
2) Answer: a)
Quantity I:
Let CP = 100
Then MP = 150
Now SP = (90/100) * 150
= 135
Thus profit percentage = 35%
Hence required amount = 100 * 40 * 35/100
= Rs.1400
Quantity II:
Let us take marked price of an article be Rs. X
According to the question,
x * 90/100 * 120/100 * 80/100 = 864
x = 864 * 100/90 * 100/120 * 100/80
x = Rs. 1000
Quantity III:
Profit ratio of A and B = (4x * 3+ 4x * 1/4 * 9): (5x * 12)
= (12x + 9x): 60x
= 21x: 60x
= 7: 20
Let us take the total profit be x
A’s share in the total profit = 3500
x * (7/27) = 3500
=> x = 500 * 27 = Rs.13500
3) Answer: a)
Quantity I: 6 hrs
Quantity II:
Original speed = 48/4 = 12 km/hr
New speed = 12 * 120/100 = 14.4 km/hr
Required time = 72/14.4 = 5 hrs
Quantity III:
A + B + C = 8hrs
A + C = 12hrs
LCM of (8,12) = 24
Number of units of water filled by A, B and C together = 24/8 = 3 units
Number of units of water filled by A and C together = 24/12 = 2 units
(i.e.) Number of units of water filled by B = 3 – 2 = 1 units
Number of units of water filled by C in one hour = x units
Number of units of water filled by A in one hour = 33(1/3)% of x = x/3
A + C = 2 units
x + x/3 = 2
x = 1.5 units
Water filled by B and C together = 1 + 1.5 = 2.5 units
Time = 24/2.5 = 9.6 hrs
4) Answer: d)
Quantity I:
Number of ways = (6C2 * 6C2) + (6C3 * 6C1) + (6C4)
= [(6 *5 /1 * 2) * (6 * 5/1(1 * 2)]+ [(6 * 5 * 4/1 * 2 * 3) * 6] + (6 * 5/1 * 2)
= (15 * 15) + (20 * 6) + 15
= 225 + 120 + 15
= 360
Quantity II:
C’s one day work = 3/16 – 7/48
= (9 – 7)/48
= 2/48
= 1/24
(A + B)’s one day work: C’s one day work = 7/48: 1/24
= 7: 2
C’s share = 2/9 of total wage = 200
Total wage = (200/2) * 9 = Rs.900
Quantity III:
Let the marked price be Rs. x
Discount = 15% of Rs. x
C.P. = (x – 15% of x) = Rs. 17x / 20
Then 15% of 17x / 20 = 1955 – 17x / 20
51x/400 + 17x/20 = 1955
x = 2000
Discount received by retailer = (15% of 2000) = Rs.300.
5) Answer: c)
Quantity I:
According to the question,
45 * x = 25 * 36 + 20 * 22.5
45x = 900 + 450
x =1350/45 = 30 yrs
Quantity II:
Let x year ago, the ratio of Rahul and Praveen’s ages was 3: 5
(40 – x)/(60 – x) = 3/5
=> 200 – 5x = 180 – 3x
=> x = 10 years
Quantity III:
(4x + 12)/(5x + 12) = 7/8
32x + 96 = 35x + 84
3x = 12
x = 4
Difference in their ages = (5x – 4x) = x = 4 years
Directions (6-10):
6) Answer: c)
LCM of number of Days for work A done by X, Y, Z alone is 120, consider this is the total parts of work.
Efficiency of work per day for X, Y, Z is in the ratio of 10:15:6
For the first two days 50 parts of total work has completed
Remaining 70 parts are done by X and Z in alternative days. so every two days,16 parts completed
After (8 days) 4 full cycle, 4* 16=64 parts completed 6 parts remained
X again start the work and completed in 3/5 days
So the work completed in 10 3/5 days
7) Answer: d)
LCM of Days for work C is done by X, Y, Z alone is240, consider this is the total part of work.
Efficiency of work per day for X, Y, Z is in the ratio of 10:15:6
Work done by X and Z individually is 60 and 180 parts respectively
X completed its 60 parts in 60/10= 6 days
Z completed its 180 parts in180/6= 30 days
The difference between the number of days is 24.
8) Answer: d)
Statement I: we cannot compare work A and work E and solve it.
Statement II: From the chart, LCM of number Days for work E done by X, Y, Z alone is 90, and Efficiency is in the ratio of 10: 15: 6 for X: Y: Z Respectively and Q can complete the work in 18 days.
By combining, statement II and Statement III,
Total parts per day* Number of Days = Total Parts of Work
(5+P) 9= 90
P=5 parts per day
So P alone can complete the work in 18 days.
9) Answer: c)
LCM of number of Days for work A done by X, Y, Z and R alone is 120, consider this is the total part of work A
The Efficiency of R is 12 parts per day
S takes ¼th of total time by Z for work C= 10 days
LCM of Days for work B done by X, Y, Z and S alone is 150, consider this is the total part of work B
The Efficiency of S is 15 parts per day
LCM of Days for work E done by X, Y, Z alone is 90, consider this is the total part of work E
For every two days they completed 27 parts
After the 3 full cycles (6 days) they completed 27*3 = 81 parts, reaming 9 parts done by S in 3/5 of a Day
So the total work is completed in 6 3/5 days.
10) Answer: a)
Quantity I:
LCM of Days for work E done by X, Y, Z alone is 90, consider this is the total part of work E
Efficiency of work per day for X, Y, Z is in the ratio of 10: 15: 6
Total parts per day* Number of Days = Total Parts of Work
6*5 + 10 XD= 90
XD= 6
So total number of days is 11 days
Quantity II:
LCM of Days for work B done by X, Y, Z and S alone is 150, consider this is the total part of work B
Efficiency of work per day for X, Y, Z is in the ratio of 10:15:6
Total parts per day* Number of Days = Total Parts of Work
15*5 + 6 * ZD= 150
ZD = 12.5, So total number of days is 17.5 days
