Answers:

1). Answer: d

Let the income of the companies X and Y in 2007 be Rs x.

Also Let us take the expenditure of the company X be E₁ and that of the company Y be E₂.

Now, 20= [(x- E₁)/ E₁]*100

x=120 E₁/100………….. (1)

Also for company Y,

10 = [(x- E₂)/ E₂]*100

x= 110 E₂/100………….. (2)

From (1) and (2), we have

120 E₁/100=110 E₂/100

E_1/ E₂= 110/120

=11/12

Hence E₁: E₂= 11:12

2). Answer:  e

Given that the income of company Y in 2006= Rs 63 lakhs and profit percentage= 50%

Let Rs x be the expenditure of the company Y in 2006.

Then, 50= [(63-x)/x]*100

x = (63-x)*2

3x= 126

x=Rs 42 lakhs

Then in 2008, the expenditure of the company Y= Rs 21 lakhs

Let y be the income of the company Y in 2008.

Then, 30 = [(y-21)/21]*100

63= 10y-210

y= Rs 27.3 lakhs

3). Answer: a

Let x be the expenditure of the company X in 2010.

Given that, the profit of company X in 2010= Rs 67.5 lakhs

(i.e) 22.5/100*x=67.5

x= Rs 300 lakhs

Then the expenditure of the company X in 2011= Rs 200 crores

Now, profit of the company X in 2011= 200*10/100

= Rs 20 lakhs

4). Answer: e

Since we cannot find the income of a company Y for all the years separately, the total expenditure of the same company will not be determined.

5). Answer: e

Given that, Income₂₀₀₈/ Income₂₀₁₁= 5/7

Since the profit percentage of a company X in 2008 is 35% and that of in 2011 is 10%, we have

135% of Expenditure₂₀₀₈/110 % of Expenditure ₂₀₁₁= 5/7

(i.e) Expenditure₂₀₀₈/ Expenditure ₂₀₁₁= 5/7*110/135

= 110/189

6). Answer: e

Let the ages of Manu and Salim 15 years ago be 2x and 5x respectively.

Then, the present age of Manu= (2x+15)

And the present age of Salim= (5x+15)

Now, (2x+15+5)/ (5x+15+5) =3/5

(2x+20)/(5x+20)=3/5

5(2x+20) =3(5x+20)

x=8

Thus present age of Manu= (2x+15) =31

Present age of Salim= (5x+15) =55

Required ratio= 31:55

7). Answer: d

We know that surface area of the sphere= 4πr².

= 4*22/7*35*35

=15400 m²

Then the cost of covering the spherical bowl= (15400*1.5) = Rs 23100

8). Answer: c

Let the price of LG TV in the last year be 4x and the price of Samsung TV in the last year be 3x.

Then, (4x-10000)/(3x*120/100)=5/6

6(4x-10000) =5(3x*6/5)

6x= 60000

x= 10000

Thus the price of LG TV in the last year =4x= Rs 40000

9). Answer: c

Let the rate of upstream be x km/hr and then rate of downstream be 3x km/hr.

Then, 2x= 28

x= 14 km/hr

(i.e) Rate of upstream= 14 km/hr

And rate of downstream= 42 km/hr

Thus, Rate of stream= ½(42-14)=1/2 *(28)= 14 km/hr

10). Answer: a

Given that profit= Cost price of 50 pens

Now, Total profit= Selling price of 400 pens- Cost price of 400 pens

Cost price of 50 pens = 3825 – Cost price of 400 pens

Cost price of 50 pens+ Cost price of 400 pens=3825

Cost price of 450 pen =3825

Thus, Cost price of 1 pen= 3825/450= Rs 8.5

 

11). Answer: e

Let x be age of Nancy, y be the age of Sofi and z be the age of Mithun.

According to the question, x+y+2z=89 ……………. (1)

3x+y+z= 98 …………… (2)

x+3y+3z=154 …………. (3)

After solving the equations, we have x= 35/2 = 17.5 years.

12). Answer: d

Let r be the rate of interest.

For question, we have simple interest for 1 year= 5124-4270=Rs 854

Then, 854= (4270*r)/100

r= 854*100/4270

r= 20%

13). Answer: d

Let the speed of Fathima be x km/hr

Then, 180/x-180/2x =6

(360-180)/2x =6

180=12x

x=15km/hr

14). Answer: a

Given that y= 120x/100 ….. (1)

Also xy=2430 … (2)

Substituting (1) in (2), we have

120x²/100=2430

x²= 2430*100/120

=2025

x=45

Then, y= 54

Thus, x+y =99

15). Answer: c

Let x be the length of the train

(x+270)/18=3x/27=speed

(x+270)/18= x/9

x+270=2x

x= 270

Thus speed of the train=3*270/27 = 30 m/s

1098=?

Directions (21-25):

21). Answer: b

45x+24y-56=0 …………… (1)

10x+ 6y-13=0 …………….. (2)

Multiplying equation (2) by 4, then we have

40x+24y-52=0 ………….. (3)

Solving (1) and (3), we have x= 4/5 and y= 5/6

Hence x<y

22). Answer: b

a)21x= 517+470

21x= 987

x=47

b)y= (√(6181-6132))²

y= (√(49))²

y= 49

Hence x<y

23). Answer: e

a)x²= 527+351+643

x²=1521

x=39 and -39

b) y²+15y-324=0

y²+27y-12y-324=0

(y+27)(y – 12)=0

y= -27 and 12

Hence the relationship cannot be determined

24). Answer: c

a) 5x²+11x+6=0

5x²+5x+6x+6=0

(x+1)(5x+6)=0

x= -1 and -6/5

b) 6y²+11y+5=0

6y²+6y+5y+5=0

(6y+5)(y+1)=0

y= -1 and -5/6

Hence x≤y

25). Answer: e

a) x= √(19²-37)

x= √(361-37)

x=√324

x= 18

b) y=(√484+√1024)/(√3)²

y= (√484+√1024)/(√3)²

y= (22+32)/3

y=54/3

y= 18

Hence x=y

Directions (26-30):

26). Answer: d

Number of students studying in the Secondary level in school D=10/100*42600

= 4260

Similarly, number of students studying in the Primary level in school D=24/100*32700

Number of students studying in the Secondary level in school G=13/100*42600

= 5538

Total number of students studying at Secondary level from A, C and G=7668+8520+5538=21726

28). Answer: c

Number of students studying in the Primary level in school F=8/100*32700

= 2616

Number of students studying in the Primary level in school G=14/100*32700

= 4578

Required percentage= 2616/4578*100=57%

29). Answer: d

Number of students studying in the Secondary level in school C=20/100*42600

= 8520

Total number of students studying primary level from school E=16/100*32700

= 5232

Required ratio= 8520:5232

= 355:218

30). Answer: a

Number of students studying in the Secondary level in school A=18/100*42600

= 7668

Number of students studying in the Secondary level in school B=14/100*42600

= 5964

Number of students studying in the Secondary level in school C=20/100*42600

= 8520

Number of students studying in the Secondary level in school D=10/100*42600

= 4260

Number of students studying in the Secondary level in school E=15/100*42600
