Answers :
Direction (1-5) :
1) Answer: d)
Loss = C.P – 2000
Profit = 3600 – C.P
Profit = 3*Loss
3600 – C.P = 3 * [C.P – 2000]
3600 – C.P = 3C.P – 6000
9600 = 4C.P
C.P = 9600/4 = Rs. 2400
SP = 2400 * (120/100) = Rs. 2880
2) Answer: a)
Let the length of train A be x m,
So, the length of train B = 640 – x
The speed of train A to that of train B is in the ratio = 3 : 4 (3y, 4y)
Time = Length of train / Speed
4 = x / 3y
x = 12y -> (1)
(640 – x) / 4y = 5
640 – x = 20y
640 – 12y = 20y
640 = 32y
y = 20
The length of train A = x = 12 * 20 = 240 m
The length of train B = 640 – x = 640 – 240 = 400 m
Required difference = 400 – 240 = 160 m
= > 12 : 20 = 3 : 5
8’s = 640
1’s = 80
The difference between the length of train A to that of B
= > 2’s = 160 m
3) Answer: c)
The speed of downstream = 36 + 12 = 48 km/hr
The speed of upstream = 36 – 12 = 24 km/hr
Let the distance between B to C be x km,
The distance between A to B = (x + 24) km
Given,
x / 24 – (x + 24) / 48 = 7/2
(2x – x – 24) / 48 = 7/2
x – 24 = 168
x = 192
The distance between A to B = x + 24 = 192 + 24 = 216 km
4) Answer: d)
Distance travelled by A when he met = 360 km
Distance travelled by B when he met = 585 – 360 = 225 km
The ratio of the speed of A to that of B
= > 360 : 225
= > 8 : 5
5) Answer: b)
(40/100) * New mixture = 24
New mixture = 24 * (5/2) = 60 liters
Given,
32 + X + 10 + X = 60
42 + 2X = 60
2X = 18
X = 9
Direction (6-10) :
6) Answer: a)
Number of balls other than the blue colour in the bag,
B = 40 – 10 = 30
D = 75 – 45 = 30
E = 30 – 15 = 15
The average = (30 + 30 + 15)/3 = 25
Average number of balls in the bag A, B and C =(60 + 40 + 50)/3 = 50
Required difference = 50 – 25 = 25
7) Answer: b)
Bag A:
Red + Pink = 60 – 20 = 40
Red = (40/20) * 7 = 14
Pink = (40/20) * 13 = 26
Bag D:
Red + Pink = 75 – 45 = 30
Red = (30/15) * 11 = 22
Pink = (30/15) * 4 = 8
Required ratio = (14 + 22): (26 + 8)
= 18: 17
8) Answer: c)
Number of balls other than the blue colour in the bag,
B = 40 – 10 = 30
Red balls in B = (30/5) * 2 = 12
C = 50 – 15 = 35
Red balls in C = (35/7) * 3 = 15
Required percentage = [(12 + 15)/45] * 100 = 60%
9) Answer: d)
Number of balls other than the blue colour in the bag,
A = 60 – 20 = 40
B = 40 – 10 = 30
C = 50 – 15 = 35
D = 75 – 45 = 30
E = 30 – 15 = 15
The sum = 40 + 30 + 35 + 30 + 15 = 150
The ratio of yellow color balls and pink color balls in the bags = 3: 2
Yellow color balls = (150/5) * 3 = 90
Pink color balls = (150/5) * 2 = 60
Required difference = (90/5)- (60/5) = 30/5 = 6
10) Answer: a)
Required % = [(20 + 10 + 15 + 45 + 15)/(60 + 40 + 50 + 75 + 30)] * 100
= (105/255) * 100
= 40%
