Answers :

1) Answer: C

A = 120/100 * B

A/B = 6/5

C = 80/100 * A

C/A = 4/5

A:B:C = 30:25:24

A + B + C = 3950 * 3 = 11850

C’s income = 24/79 * 11850 = 3600


2) Answer: C

Sum of Red and Yellow = 40 * 2 = 80

3x + 2x = 80

x = 16

Number of blue balls = 5 * 16 = 80


3) Answer: C

Income of A = 3x

Income of B = 2x

Expenditure of A = 6y

Expenditure of B = 5y

A’s savings = 3x – 6y

A’s savings = 1/3 *  3x = x

3x – 6y = x

2x = 6y

x = 3y

B’s savings = 2x – 5y = 2x – 5 * (x/3)

= 6x – 5x/3 = x/3

Required ratio = x:x/3 = 3:1


4) Answer: B

(5x – 10)/(4x – 12) = 3/2

10x – 20 = 12x – 36

2x = 16

x = 8

Total number of employee = 9x = 9 * 8 =72


5) Answer: B

3x + 2x * 1/2 + 4x * 1/4 = 180

3x + x + x = 180

5x = 180

x = 36

Number of 25 paisa coins = 4 * 36 = 144


6) Answer: C

Required ratio = 6 * 140/100: 5 * 160/100

=21:20


7) Answer: B

(3x + 18)/(4x + 16) = 9/10

36x + 144 = 30x + 180

6x = 36

x = 6

Number of girls = 4 * 6 = 24


8) Answer: C

(5x – 2000)/(4x – 4500) = 3/2

12x – 13500 = 10x – 4000

2x = 9500

X = 4750

Difference between the income of A and B = Rs.4750


9) Answer: A

Required ratio = (2/5 + 3/8):(3/5 + 5/8)

= 31:49


10) Answer: D

(3x + 20)/(4x – 10) = 2/1

8x – 20 = 3x + 20

5x = 40

x = 8

Number of balls in box B = 4 * 8 = 32
