Answers :
Directions (1 – 5):
Cost price of item P = 20% of 36000 = Rs.7200
Cost price of item Q = 15% of 36000 = Rs.5400
Cost price of item R = 25% of 36000 = Rs.9000
Cost price of item S = 10% of 36000 = Rs.3600
Cost price of item T = 30% of 36000 = Rs.10800
1) Answer: b)
Marked price of article P for shopkeeper A = 135% of 7200 = Rs.9720
Selling price of article P for shopkeeper A = 90% of 9720 = Rs.8748
Profit amount earned on article P by shopkeeper A = 8748 – 7200 = Rs.1548
Marked price of article Q for shopkeeper A = 115% of 5400 = Rs.6210
Selling price of article P for shopkeeper A = 92% of 6210 = Rs.5713.2
Profit amount earned on article Q by shopkeeper A = 5713.2 – 5400 = Rs.313.2
According to the question:
x% = (1548/7200) * 100
x% = 21.5%
x = 21.5
y% = (313.2/5400) * 100
y% = 5.8%
y = 5.8
Required difference = x ~ y = 21.5 – 5.8 = 15.7
2) Answer: d)
Marked price of item P for shopkeeper A = (100 + x)% of 7200 = 72(100 + x)
Selling prove of item P for shopkeeper A = 90% of 72(100 + x)
Given that, 90% of 72(100 + x) = (100 + x – 13)% of 7200
64.8(100 + x) = 72(87 + x)
0.9(100 + x) = (87 + x)
90 + 0.9x = 87 + x
3 = 0.1x
x = 30
Profit amount earned by shopkeeper A after selling item P = (x – 13)% of 7200 = 17% of 7200 = Rs.1224
Marked price of item P for shopkeeper B = (100 + y)% of 7200 = 72(100 + y)
Selling prove of item P for shopkeeper B = 88% of 72(100 + y)
Given that, 88% of 72(100 + y) = (100 + y – 15)% of 7200
63.36(100 + y) = 72(85 + y)
0.88(100 + y) = 85 + y
88 + 0.88y = 85 + y
3 = 0.12y
y = 25
Profit amount earned by shopkeeper b after selling item P = (y – 15)% of 7200 = 10% of 7200 = Rs.720
Sum of profit amount earned by both the shopkeepers together after selling item P = 1224 + 720 = Rs.1944
3) Answer: b)
Let marked up amount on item Q by shopkeepers A and B is ‘x’ and ’2x’ respectively.
Marked price of item Q for shopkeeper A = (5400 + x)
Selling price of item Q for shopkeeper A = 92% of (5400 + x) = (4968 + 0.92x)
Profit amount = (4968 + 0.92x) – 5400 = (0.92x – 432)
Marked price of item Q for shopkeeper B = (5400 + 2x)
Selling price of item Q for shopkeeper B = 85% of (5400 + 2x) = (4590 + 1.7x)
Profit amount = (4590 + 1.7x) – 5400 = (1.7x – 810)
According to the question:
(0.92x – 432) + (1.7x – 810) = 330
2.62x – 1242 = 330
2.62x = 1572
x = 600
Amount of discount offered by shopkeeper A = 8% of (5400 + x) = Rs.480
Amount of discount offered by shopkeeper B = 15% of (5400 + 2x) = Rs.990
Required ratio = 480: 990 = 16: 33
4) Answer: a)
Let marked up amount of item T for shopkeeper A and B is 7x and 6x respectively.
Marked price of item T for shopkeeper A = (10800 + 7x)
Amount of discount offered by shopkeeper A = 12% of (10800 + 7x) = (1296 + 0.84x)
Marked price of item T for shopkeeper B = (10800 + 6x)
Amount of discount offered by shopkeeper B = 8% of (10800 + 6x) = (864 + 0.48x)
According to the question:
(1296 + 0.84x) – (864 + 0.48x) = 648
432 + 0.36x = 648
0.36x = 216
x = 600
Profit amount earned by shopkeeper A = [88% of (10800 + 7x)] – 10800
= Rs.2400
Profit amount earned by shopkeeper B = [92% of (10800 + 6x)] – 10800
= Rs.2448
Required profit per cent = [(2400 + 2448)/21600] * 100 = 22.44%
5) Answer: c)
Marked price of item R = 140% of 9000 = Rs.12600
Selling price of item R after two successive discounts = 95% of 80% of 12600
= Rs.9576
Marked price of item S = 145% of 3600 = Rs.5220
Selling price of item R after two successive discounts = 85% of (5220 – 220)
= Rs.4250
Total profit amount earned by the shopkeeper
= (9576 + 4250) – (9000 + 3600) = Rs.1226
Directions (6 – 10):
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Monday from A to B = 15% of 1000
= 150 km/h
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Tuesday from A to B = 20% of 1000
= 200 km/h
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Wednesday from A to B = 10% of 1000
= 100 km/h
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Thursday from A to B = 25% of 1000
= 250 km/h
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Friday from A to B = 30% of 1000
= 300 km/h
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Monday from B to A = 20% of 800
= 160 km/h
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Tuesday from B to A = 30% of 800
= 240 km/h
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Wednesday from B to A = 25% of 800
= 200 km/h
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Thursday from B to A = 15% of 800
= 120 km/h
Flight speed of bird (without wind) on Friday from B to A = 10% of 800
= 80 km/h
6) Answer: d)
Distance between cities A and B = 270 km
Time taken by the bird to reach at city B from city A on Monday in morning
= 270/100 = 2.7 hours
Time taken by the bird reach at city A from city B on Friday in evening
= 270/120 = 2.25 hours
Required difference = 2.7 – 2.25 = 0.45 hours = 27 minutes
7) Answer: c)
Flight speed (without wind) of another bird on Wednesday morning = 120 km/h
Flight speed (with wind) of another bird on Wednesday morning = 120 + 50
= 170 km/h
Effective speed of both the birds = 50 + 170 = 220 km/h
Let both the birds meet after travelling for ‘t’ hours.
Required difference = 170t – 50t = 90
120t = 90
t = 0.75 hours
Distance between both the cities = 220 * 0.75 = 165 km
8) Answer: a)
Time between 6:00 AM in the morning to 3:00 PM in the evening on the same day
= 9 hours = 540 minutes
Time taken in search of food = 7 hours 9 minutes = (7 * 60) + 9 = 429 minutes
Time taken in flight = 540 – 429 = 111 minutes
Let the distance between cities A and B is ‘D’ km.
According to the question:
(D/250) + (D/120) = (111/60)
(12D + 25D)/3000 = 111/60
37D = (111/60) * 3000
37D = 5550
D = 150
Hence, distance between cities A and B is 150 km.
9) Answer: b)
Let increment in the flight speed of bird = ‘x’ km/h
Effective speed of bird on Tuesday evening while returning from B to A
= (280 + 20 + x) = (300 + x) km/h
Calculated time taken by bird = (98/280) * 60 = 21 minutes
Actual time taken by bird = (21 – 4.2) = (98 * 60)/(300 + x)
300 + x = 350
x = 50
Increment in the flight (without wind) speed of bird = x = 50 km/h
10) Answer: c)
Changed flight speed (without wind) of the bird = 120% of 250 = 300 km/h
Changed flight speed (with wind) of the bird = 300 – 50 = 250 km/h
Original flight time of the bird = (80/200) + (80/160) = 0.4 + 0.5 = 0.9 hours
= 54 minutes
Original flight time of the bird = (80/250) + (80/160) = 0.32 + 0.5 = 0.82 hours
= 49.2 minutes
Required less time = 54 – 49.2 = 4.8 minutes
