Answers :
Directions (1-2) :
1) Answer: d)
(34485/11) + (5/9)*12150 + (56/100)*9000 = x2 – 451
3135 + 6750 + 5040 + 451 = x2
15376 = x2
x = 124
2) Answer: B
(4858 + 6316 + 27578) ÷ 8 + 197 = x2
38752/8 + 197 = x2
4844 + 197 = x2
5041= x2
x = 71
Directions (3-5) :
3) Answer: d)
Perimeter of the field = 3600/6 = 600 m
2*(7x + 3x) = 600 => x = 30
So, length = 210 m and breadth = 90 m
Difference between length & breadth
= > (210 – 90) m = 120 m
4) Answer: d)
Total probability = 15C2
Required probability = 5C2 or 6C2
The probability that the marbles are either red or pink,
= > 5C2 or 6C2 / 15C2
= > 5/21
5) Answer: c)
Savings = 35 %
Expenditure = 65 %
According to the question,
= > (80/100) * expenditure = 10400
Expenditure = 13000
(65/100) * Monthly salary = 13000
Monthly salary = 13000 * (100/65) = Rs. 20000
Savings = 35 % of monthly salary = (35/100) * 20000
= > Rs. 7000
Directions (6-10) :
6) Answer: c)
Total number of male went for a science conference in Monday and Wednesday together
= > 450 * (5/9) + 500 * (12/25)
= > 250 + 240 = 490
Total number of female went for a science conference in Tuesday and Friday together
= > 300 * (2/3) + 400 * (3/8)
= > 200 + 150 = 350
Required % = (490 / 350) * 100 = 140 %
7) Answer: a)
The total number of people of age above 25 years went for a conference in Thursday
= > 350 * (52/100) = 182
The total number of people of age above 25 years went for a conference in Saturday
= > 600 * (54/100) = 324
Required difference = 324 – 182 = 142
8) Answer: d)
The total number of females went for a science conference in Wednesday
= > 500 * (13/25) = 260
The total number of females of age less than or equal to 25 years went for a science conference in Wednesday
= > 500 * (45/100) * (44/100) = 99
The total number of females of age above 25 years went for a science conference in Wednesday
= > 260 – 99 = 161
9) Answer: b)
The total number of males went for a science conference in Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday together
= > 450 * (5/9) + 300 * (1/3) + 500 * (12/25) + 350 * (3/5)
= > 250 + 100 + 240 + 210
= > 800
Required average = 800/4 = 200
10) Answer: a)
Total number of people went for a science conference in Tuesday and Saturday together
= > 300 + 600 = 900
Total number of people went for a science conference in Friday
= > 400
Required % = [(900 – 400)/400] * 100 = 125 %
