Answers :

1). Answer: c

Increase in circumference of circle= 10%

Increase of radius = 10%

Increase radius = [2×10+10²/100] % = 21

2). Answer: d

The circumradius is always twice the median.

3). Answer : b

Or M ₁ D ₁ = M ₂ D ₂

200 x X = 350 x 20

X =35

Work will be completed 35 – 20 = 15 days behind the schedule

4). Answer: c

Let the four numbers A, B, C, D be x-2, x, x+2, x+4 respectively.

X – 2 + x + x +2 + x + 4 = 18 x 4 = 72

4x + 12 = 12

4x = 60

X = 15

A = 15;            B = 17;            C = 19;            d = 21

A (B+C) = 15 (17+19) = 540

5). Answer: B

First number × second number = HCF × LCM

21 × second number = 3 × 2310

Second number = 330

6). Answer: D

Suppose that number is = x.

∴ 125% of x = 125x/100 ⇒ 125x/100 = 1600

∴ x = 1600*100/125 = 20000

7). Answer: (B)

Let the numbers be 7x and 12x, respectively.

According to the question, 12x = 7x + 25

5x = 25

x = 25/5 = 5

Therefore, numbers are 35 and 60 Product of numbers = 35 × 60 = 2100

8). Answer: D

(x+y)² = x²+y²+2xy = 49xy

x²+y² = 49xy – 2xy = 47xy

(x²+y²)/xy = 47

x2/xy + y²/xy = 47

x/y + y/x = 47

9). Answer: (b)

Let the usual speed be x km/h.

∴ Usual time = 80/x h

New time = 80/(x+4) h

∴ 80/x − 80/(x + 4) = 1

x² + 4x – 320 = 0

x = 16,-20

x=-20 is neglected since it is negative.

Usual speed of rakesh =16 km/h

10). Answer: (D)

(x – 5) (x – 13) = x² – 18x + 65

For a quadratic equation, ax² + bx + c = 0,

The minimum value of the equation is calculated as (4ac- b²)/4a.

Minimum value = (4x1x65) – (-18)²)/ 4×1

= (260-324)/ 4 =-64/4 = -16
