Answers:
Directions (1-5):
1) Answer: c)
Number of pen sold by company N in 2007
= 400 – (43*600/100)
= 400 – 258
= 142
Number of pen sold company N in 2008= 142+200= 342
Number of pen produced by company N in 2008
= 342*100/40
= 855 pens
2) Answer: b)
Number of pens sold by company M in 2009
= 480*15/100= 72
Number of pens sold by company M in 2010
= 72*9/8= 81
Required percentage= 81*100/680= 12%
3) Answer: c)
Number of pens sold in 2007
= x*15/100 + (x+200)*40/100= 630
= 15x/100 + 40x/100 + 80= 630
= (15x+ 40x)/100= 630- 80
= 55x= 550*100
= x= 1000 pens
So,
Number of pens sold in 2009
= (1000+200)*40/100
= 480 pens
4) Answer: d)
Number of pens sold by company N in 2010
= 900*30/100
= 270 pens
Number of pens sold by company N in 2007
= 270*110/100
= 297 pens
Number of pens sold by company N in 2008
= 297*8/9
= 264 pens
Number of pens produced by company N in 2008
= 264*100/40
= 660 pens
5) Answer: b)
Total pens produced = 200*3= 600
Number of pens sold M in 2008
= 600- 60% of 450 – 43% of 600
= 600 – 270 – 258
= 72
Pens produced in 2008
= 72*100/20
= 360
Required percentage
= 360*100/450
= 80%
6) Answer: a)
P(E) = n(E)/n(S)
n(S) = 13C2
n(E) = 4C2 or 6C2
P(E) = 4C2 or 6C2 / 13C2
P(E) = (6+15)/78
P(E) = 7/26
7) Answer: c)
Let the income of Rajiv and Mohan are Rs.5x and Rs.6x respectively.
According to the question,
(5x – 1000)/(6x – 2000) = 235/278
=> 1390x – 278000 = 1410x – 470000
=> 192000 = 20x
=> x = 9600
Income of Rajiv = 5x = 5 * 9600 = Rs. 48000
8) Answer: a)
(x-4)/ 15 + (x-5)/18 + x/20 =1
(12x-48+10x-50+9x)/180 =1
31x-98=180
31x= 278
X=278/31 = 8 (30/31) min
9) Answer: d)
Let five years ago, age of A, B, C and D were 3x, 5x, 4x and 8x respectively.
According to the question
3x + 5x + 4x + 8x + 5 * 4 = 180
=> 20x = 180 – 20
=> 20x = 160
=> x = 160/20 = 8
Present age of A = 3 * 8 + 5 = 29 years
Present age of D = 8 * 8 + 5 = 69 years
Required number of years = 69 – 29 = 40 years
10) Answer: b)
Speed of upstream= (9.6 *60) / 24 = 24 km/hr
The speed of the current is 1/4th of the boat in still water.
= > Speed of current: Speed of still water = 1:4
Speed of upstream= Speed of still water- speed of Current
24= 3x =>x=8
Speed of current = 8 km/hr
Speed of boat in still water= 32 km/hr
Speed of downstream= Speed of still water + speed of Current
= > 32+8 = 40 km/hr
Here speed= 40 km/hr, Time= 36 minutes
Distance= 40 *(36/60) = 24 km
