Answers :

1) Answer: A

(18 * 6 * 12)/ (60 * 9) = (30 * 4.8 * x)/(120 * 6)

15x = 180

x = 12

2) Answer: B

Present age of son = x

Present age of father = 200/100 * x = 2x

(x – 10)/ (2x – 10) = 100/300

2x – 10 = 3x – 30

x = 20

Present age of father = 2 * 20 = 40

Required ratio = (40 + 15): (20 + 15)

= 55:35

= 11:7

3) Answer: E

Initial quantity of Alloy B is not given

We cannot find the answer.

4) Answer: E

Investment period of Einstein = 24 months

Newton investment period = 24 * 75/100 = 18 months

Edison investment period = 18 + 13 = 31 months

Required ratio = 1/24 * 24:4/27 * 18:8/31 * 31

= 1:8/3:8

= 3:8:24

5) Answer: C

Required ways = 6C₅ * 3C₂

= 6 * 3

= 18

6) Answer: B

Profit ratio of A, B and C = (6000 * 6 + 5000 * 6): (9000 * 6 + 10000 * 6):(8000 * 6)

= 66:114:48

= 11:19:8

Profit share of C = 8/38 * 19000

= Rs.4000

7) Answer: E

2400 – CP = (CP – 1700) * 75/100

9600 – 4CP = 3CP – 5100

7CP = 14700

CP = 2100

Required SP = 2100 * 120/100 = Rs.2520

8) Answer: B

Length of train = x

Speed of train = y

x + 280 = y * 5/18 * 23.2

9x + 2520 = 58y

x = y * 5/18 * 12

3x = 10y

9x + 2520 = 58 * (3x/10)

90x + 25200 = 174x

x = 300 m

9) Answer: A

C alone fill the tank = 1/24 – 1/40

= 1/60

B alone fill the tank = 120/100 * 60 = 72

A alone fill the tank = 1/40 – 1/72

= 1/90

10) Answer: B

Age of 45 boys = 45*20

= 900

The total age of 45 boys and a teacher= 46*21 = 966

Hence, teacher’s age = 966-900

= 66
