Answers :

1) Answer: C

let the original sum = 100

For 1 yr = 40 + 40 + (40 × 40) / 100
= 96%

For 2 yrs = 96 +  96 + (96 × 96)/100

= 192 + 92.16

= 284.16%

Total sum after two years = 100 + 284.16 =384.16%


2) Answer: C

= ½ × 80/100 × 390

= 0.4 × 390

= 156


3) Answer: B

Ntotal=1800

No. of students in year 2011 ⇒ 2140

Ratio = 1800 : 2140

90:  107


4) Answer: D

MTotal=2330/5 = 466


5) Answer: D

Total students in year

2009  ⇒ 2180

2010  ⇒2270

2011  ⇒2140

2012  ⇒2260

2013  ⇒2290

Hence average no. of students was maximum in 2013.


6) Answer: B

∵ diagonal of rhombus intersect at right angle hence

AO = 3 cm ⇒ AC = 6 cm

Area of rhombus = ½ ×6 × 8 = 24 cm


7) Answer: C

Curved string = 2πr

= 18π cm

Straight string = 3 × (28) = 54 cm

Total length of string = 54 + 18π cm


8) Answer: B

(2π – 1) r = 111

(44/7–1) r = 111

37/7 r = 111

r = 21 cm

Area of circle = 22/7 × 21 × 21

=1386 cm2


9) Answer: A

d = 14 cm

r = 7 cm

C.S.A. of a sphere = 4πr²

= 4 × 22/7 × 7 × 7

= 616 cm2


10) Answer: D
