Answers :

Direction (1-5) :

1) Answer: d)

The original fraction be (x/y)

[X*(180/100)]/[Y*(220/100)] = 5/11

9x/11y = 5/11

x/y = 5/9

2) Answer: d)

A + B + C = Rs. 33250

(3/7)* A = (2/3)* B

(A/B) = (2/3) * (7/3) = 14/9

(1/4)* B = (5/8)* C

(B/C) = (5/8) * (4/1) = 5/2

The ratio of A, B and C = 70: 45: 18

133’s = 33250

1’s = 250

70’s = Rs. 17500

3) Answer: a)

The share of A, B and C,

= > [45000*3 + 60000*9]: [65000*3 + 60000*9]: [70000*7 + 55000*5]

= > 675000: 735000: 765000

= > 45: 49: 51

Total profit = Rs. 114405

145’s = 114405

1’s = 789

The share of A = 789*45 = Rs. 35505

4) Answer: b)

Total mixture of milk and water = 90 litres

5’s = 90

1’s = 18

Total milk = 54 litres, water = 36 litres

According to the question,

54/(36 + x) = (45/55)

54/(36 + x) = 9/11

66 = 36 + x

X = 30

30 litres of water should be added to the mixture.

5) Answer: c)

Speed of downstream = D/T = 55/(66/60) = 55*(60/66) = 50 km/hr

The ratio of the speed of the boat in still water to the speed of the stream

= > 4: 1 (4x, x)

5x = 50

X = 10

Speed of upstream = 4x – x = 3x = 30 km/hr

Distance = 752 km

Time = D/S = 72/30 = 2 2/5 hr = 2 hours 24 mins

Directions (6 – 10):

6) Answer: c)

The total number of girls appeared for the examination from all the given cities together

= > 2860 + 4250 + 3720 + 4320 + 2960

= > 18110

Required average = 18110/5 = 3622

7) Answer: d)

The total number of girls passed in the city Q and R together

= > 3713 + 3567 = 7280

The total number of girls passed in the city S and T together

= > 3274 + 2659 = 5933

Required % = (7280/5933)*100 = 122.70 % = 123 %

8) Answer: b)

The total number of girls appeared for the examination from all the given cities together

= > 2860 + 4250 + 3720 + 4320 + 2960

= > 18110

The total number of boys appeared for the examination from all the given cities together

= > 5720 + 3400 + 3100 + 5040 + 4440

= > 21700

Required difference = 21700 – 18110 = 3590

9) Answer: a)

The total number of girls passed from the city P and S together

= > 2165 + 3274 = 5439

The total number of boys passed from the city P and S together

= > 4270 + 3278 = 7548

Required ratio = 5439: 7548 = 1813: 2516

10) Answer: c)

Total number of students appeared for the examination from city R and S together

= > 6820 + 9360 = 16180

Total number of girls appeared for the examination from all the given cities together

= > 2860 + 4250 + 3720 + 4320 + 2960 = 18110

Required % = [(18110 – 16180)/18110]*100 = 10.65 % = 11 % less
