Answers :
Directions (1-3):
1) Answer: a)
Quantity I:
Area of the rectangle = 16 * 10 = 160 Sq cm
320 = 20 * b
B = 320/20 = 16 cm
Quantity II:
14 cm
Quantity I > Quantity II
2) Answer: c)
Quantity I:
15 years
Quantity II:
The ratio of ages of Priya and Manoj, after 3 years = 3 : 4
The ratio of ages of Manoj and Rahul, after 3 years = 5 : 7
The ratio of ages of Priya, Manoj and Rahul, after 3 years = 15 : 20 : 28
63’s = 54 + 9
63’s = 63
1’s = 1
Present age of Manoj = 20’s – 3 = 20 – 3 = 17 years
Quantity II > Quantity I
3) Answer: e)
Short cut:
The average of consecutive numbers/odd numbers/even numbers always will be the middle numbers.
For example,
The average of 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 will be 5 (middle number)
The average of 1, 3, 5, 7 will be (3 + 5)/2 = 4
Here the middle number will be 19. So the five consecutive odd numbers will be,
15, 17, 19, 21, 23
Required difference = (17*21) – (15*19) = 357 – 285 = 72
Quantity I:
Let assume the first number of the consecutive number be ‘a’.
Then the consecutive numbers are a, a + 2, a + 4, a + 6, a + 8
Average of these numbers = (a + a + 2 + a + 4 + a + 6 + a + 8)/5
=> (5a + 20)/5 = a + 4
Given that,
a + 4 = 19
a = 15
Then
The series = 15, 17, 19, 21, 23
Then
N1 * N3 = 15 * 19 = 285
N2 * N4 = 17 * 21 = 357
Required difference = 357 – 285 = 72
Quantity II:
72
Quantity I = Quantity II
4) Answer: b)
The share of P, Q and R,
= > [5*5 + 5*(5/7)*7] : [7*5 + 14*7] : [9*5 + 9*(2/3)*7]
= > [25 + 25] : [35 + 98] : [45 + 42]
= > 50 : 133 : 87
270’s = 99450
1’s = 368 1/3
The share of R = 87’s = Rs. 32045
5) Answer: e)
Shortcut:
Percentage change in area of rectangle = x + y +xy/100
=> 25 – 20 – 25 *20/100 = 0
Let the length and breadth of the rectangle is 10 cm and 10cm,
Previous area = 10 * 10 = 100
New length = 10 * 125/100 = 12.5
New breadth = 10 * 80/100 = 8
New area= 12.5 * 8 = 100
No change in the area of the rectangle
Directions (6-10):
6) Answer: a)
Total number of officers working in SBI in the year 2014
= > 32000 * (5/16) = 10000
Total number of clerk working in SBI in the year 2017
= > 21000 * (5/7) = 15000
Required % = (10000/15000)*100 = 66 2/3 %
7) Answer: d)
The average number of clerk working in SBI in the year 2014, 2015 and 2016 together
= > [(32000*(11/16) + 36000*(3/4) + 25000*(4/5)]/3
= > [22000 + 27000 + 20000]/3
= > 23000
8) Answer: b)
The total number of male officers working in SBI in the year 2015
= > 36000*(1/4)*(56/100) = 5040
The total number of female clerk working in SBI in the year 2015
= > 36000*(3/4)*(38/100) = 10260
Required difference = 10260 – 5040 = 5220
9) Answer: a)
The total number of clerks working in SBI in the year 2016
= > 25000*(4/5) = 20000
The total number of officers working in SBI in the year 2013
= > 28000*(2/7) = 8000
Required ratio = 20000 : 8000 = 5 : 2
10) Answer: c)
Total employees working in SBI in the year 2013 and 2015 together
= > 28000 + 36000 = 64000
Total employees working in SBI in the year 2014 and 2016 together
= > 32000 + 25000 = 57000
Required % = (64000/57000)*100 = 112.28 % = 112 %
