10. By what percent tables sold by A in October are more than wardrobes sold by B in October?
A. 46%

B. 54%
C. 67%
D. 56%
E. None of these

Correct option is: A Solution:
Let number of chairs, tables and wardrobes sold by A in August be 42x, 36x and 23x.
Also, let chairs sold by A in August, September and October be 14y, 23y and 27y respectively.
∴42x = 14y ⇒y = 3x and, 23x = 23y – 230
⇒x = 5 and y = 15
Now, Chairs sold by B in September = 665 – 345 = 320 Chairs sold by B in August = 320
Tables sold by B in September = Chairs sold by A in Aug = 210
∴Table sold by A in September = 400 – 210 = 190
Wardrobes sold by B in September = wardrobes sold by A in Aug = 115
∴Wardrobes sold by A in September = 210 – 115 = 95 Chairs sold by B in October = 1025 – 320 – 320 = 385
Tables sold by A in October = (1025 – 480) – (180 + 190) = 175 Tables sold by B in August = (11/12) × 180 = 165
Tables sold by B in October = (38/35) × 175 = 190
Wardrobes sold by B in August = 1075 – (210 + 320 + 180 + 165 + 115) = 85 Let wardrobes sold by A in October be a and that by B be b in October
∴a = b – 35 and a + b = 205
⇒a = 85 and b = 120

Let the number of patients in Delhi, Jaipur, Chennai, Calcutta, Mumbai were D, J, Ch, Cal, M respectively.

Then we have

D = 1.6J = 1.6(400+Ch)

Cal = 1 Ch
2

M = Ch – 100

Therefore, we have

D + J + Ch + Cal + M = 9100

1.6 (400 + Ch) + (400 + Ch) + Ch + 1
Ch + Ch – 100 = 9100
2

940 + 5.1Ch = 9100

D. 56%
E. None of these

  • Correct option is: A Solution:
    Let number of chairs, tables and wardrobes sold by A in August be 42x, 36x and 23x.
    Also, let chairs sold by A in August, September and October be 14y, 23y and 27y respectively.
    ∴42x = 14y ⇒y = 3x and, 23x = 23y – 230
    ⇒x = 5 and y = 15
    Now, Chairs sold by B in September = 665 – 345 = 320 Chairs sold by B in August = 320
    Tables sold by B in September = Chairs sold by A in Aug = 210
    ∴Table sold by A in September = 400 – 210 = 190
    Wardrobes sold by B in September = wardrobes sold by A in Aug = 115
    ∴Wardrobes sold by A in September = 210 – 115 = 95 Chairs sold by B in October = 1025 – 320 – 320 = 385
    Tables sold by A in October = (1025 – 480) – (180 + 190) = 175 Tables sold by B in August = (11/12) × 180 = 165
    Tables sold by B in October = (38/35) × 175 = 190
    Wardrobes sold by B in August = 1075 – (210 + 320 + 180 + 165 + 115) = 85 Let wardrobes sold by A in October be a and that by B be b in October
    ∴a = b – 35 and a + b = 205
    ⇒a = 85 and b = 120

Then we have

D = 1.6J = 1.6(400+Ch)

Cal = 1 Ch
2

M = Ch – 100

Therefore, we have

D + J + Ch + Cal + M = 9100

1.6 (400 + Ch) + (400 + Ch) + Ch + 1
Ch + Ch – 100 = 9100
2

A. 29
B. 23
C. 19
D. 27
E. None of these Correct option is: B
34. What was the average of marks obtained by the candidate in the subject E and F together?
A. 90
B. 80
C. 85
D. 100
E. None of these Correct option is: A
35. The number of marks obtained by the candidate in the subject C was how much percentage less than that of subject E?
A. 45%
B. 40%
C. 65%
D. 35%
E. None of these Correct option is: D
Solution:
Let the marks scored by the candidate in the subject F = 10x then

The marks scored by the candidate in the subject A = 80% of 10x = 8x

The ratio of marks scored in B to that in C is 4 : 5 and that D to E is 3 : 4. The number of marks scored by the candidate in E is 25% more than that of F

In E, the marks obtained = 125% of 10x = 25x = 4a
2

Then, the marks obtained in D = 3 × 25 = 75x
2 × 4 8

The marks obtained in C = 5y = 65

The marks obtained in B = 4y = 65 × 4 = 52
5

According to the question,

A + B + C + D + E + F = 218 × 6
3

8x + 52 + 65 + 75x + 25x + 10x = 436
8 2

8x + 75x + 25x + 10x= 436 – 52 – 65 = 319
8 2

(64x + 75x + 100x + 80x) = 319 × 8

x = 8

The total marks = z then 48 4 % of z = 436
9

By solving, z = 436 × 900 = 900
436

In a bilateral cricket series between India and Australia, the probability that India wins the first game is 0.4. If India wins any game, the probability that it wins the next game is 0.3; otherwise the probability is 0.2.

36. Find the probability that India wins the first two games. A. 0.08

B. 0.32
C. 0.18
D. 0.12
E. None of these

Correct option is: D Solution:
P(Win first game)* P(Win second game)= 0.4*0.3=0.12

37. Find the probability that India wins at least one of the first two games. A. 0.48
B. 0.32
C. 0.56
D. 0.52
E. 0.58

Correct option is: D Solution:
P(won at least 1 game)= 1- P(won no games)
=1- [P(lost 1st game)*P(lost second game)]
=1- [(1-0.4)*(1-0.2)]
in the second bracket because after losing the first game the probability of wining the second match is 0.2. So 1-0.2 is the probability of losing that game too.

C. 0.096
D. 0.404

E. 0.214

Correct option is: D Solution:
This problem can be solved in three parts
Part 1- India wins first game and loses second and third part 2= Lose + Win + Lose
Part 3= Lose + Lose+ Win
P (Part 1)= India wins first game * India loses second game* India loses third game
= 0.4 * (1-0.3)* (1-0.2)= 0.4*0.7*0.8 = 0.224
P (Part2)= India loses first game * Wins second game * Loses third game
= (1-0.4)* 0.2 * (1-0.3)= 0.6*0.2*0.7= 0.084
P (Part 3)= L*L*W = (1-0.4)* (1-0.2) * 0.2= 0.6*0.8*0.2= 0.096
P= P1+P2+P3= 0.404

A. 8000
B. 6400
C. 5600
D. 7200
E. None of these Correct option is: B

45. The total number of female population in Bhainaa tribe is how much percentage more than that of Koliya tribe?
A. 200%
B. 250%
C. 150%
D. 50%
E. 100%
Correct option is: E Solution:
Let the population of Koliya = 2x then the ppulatin of Bhainaa = 150% of 2x = 3x
……… (i)

Let the number of males = 11a then the number of females = 9a (ii)

In Koliya tribe, let the number of male = 5b then the number of female = (100 – 40)% of 5b = 60% of 5b = 3b = 1200

b = 400

Then x = 1600

 

In Bhainaa tribe, the male population = c = the number of female populations

= 4800 = 2400
2

From the equation (ii)
The number of males = 11 × 8000 = 4400
20

The number of female populations = 9 × 8000 = 3600

A. 21 : 11
B. 2 : 1
C. 25 : 13
D. 23 : 13
E. None of these
Correct option is: D Solution:
The total share of daughter = half of gold + 20% of land + 75% of cash amount

= 6 lakhs + 20% of 5 lakhs + 75% of 80 thousand
2

= 3 lakhs + 1 lakhs + 60 thousand = 4 lakhs 60 thousand Remaining Gold = 6 lakhs – 3 lakhs = 3 lakhs Remaining Land = 5 lakhs – 1 lakhs = 4 lakhs Remaining Cash = 80000 – 60000 = 20000
The share of son A = (1/2) of remaining gold + (3/4) of remaining land + (1/2) of remaining cash

= 1.5 lakhs + 3 lakhs + 10 thousand = 4.6 lakhs

The share of son B = (1/2) of remaining gold + (1/4) of remaining land + (1/2) of remaining cash

= 1.5 lakhs + 1 lakhs + 10 thousand = 2.6 lakhs

8

Let the Baman’s total production = x tons then 25% of x= 50
x = 50 × 100
25

x = 200 tons

In 2017,

Baman’s total production = 2 × 200 = 400 tons 10% of 400 = 40 tons he returned to Chaman
Let Chaman’s total production = y then (200/3)% of y = 40

A person went to market with Rs. 750. He purchased x kg apples, 4 kg bananas and 6 kg mangoes. After purchasing, he was left with Rs. 50 in his pocket. When he calculated, he found that the amount spent to purchase apples was equal to the amount spent to purchase mangoes, the amount spent to purchase bananas was one third of the amount spent to purchase apples and the total quantity of apples purchased by him was half of the total quantity of bananas and mangoes together purchased by him.

56. What is the ratio of price per kg of apples to price per kg of banana? A. 4 : 1
B. 5 : 3
C. 12 : 5

D. 24 : 13
E. None of these

Correct option is: C Solution:
Common explanation :

The total money spent = Rs. (750 – 50) = Rs. 700

Let the price of apples per kg = Rs. a, price of banana per kg = Rs. b, price of mangoes per kg = Rs. c

Then, according to the question, x × a + 4 × b + 6 × c = 700

The amount spent to purchase apples was equal to the amount spent to purchase mangoes

then, xa = 6c, a : c = 6 : x

x = 6 + 4 = 10 = 5 kg
2 2

The amount spent to purchase bananas was one third of the amount spent to purchase apples

4b = 1 × xa = 1 × 6c
3 3

4b = 2c

b : c = 1 : 2 (ii)

a : b : c = 60 : 25 : 50

Let the price per kg of apple = Rs. 60p, then price of banana per kg = Rs. 25p and

price of mangoes per kg = Rs. 50p x × a + 4 × b + 6 × c = 700
5a + 4b + 6c = 700

5 × 60p + 4 × 25p + 6 × 50p = 700

300p + 100p + 300p = 700p = 700

p = 1

It means, the price per kg of apple = Rs. 60p = Rs. 60

Price per kg of banana = Rs. 25p = Rs. 25 andprice per kg of mangoes = Rs. 50p = Rs. 50

57. How much money did he spend to purchase mangoes?
A. Rs. 240
B. Rs. 300
C. Rs. 324
D. Rs. 306
E. None of these

Correct option is: B Solution:
The total he spends to purchase mangoes = 6c = 6 × 50 = 300
58. If he purchases two kg mangoes, 1 kg apples, and 2 kg banana then how much money will he left with in his pocket?
A. Rs. 210
B. Rs. 580
C. Rs. 540
D. Rs. 520
E. None of these

Correct option is: C Solution:
The price of two kg mangoes, 1 kg apples, and 2 kg banana = 2 × 50 + 1 × 60 + 2 × 25 = 100 + 60 + 50 = 210

The required difference = 750 – 210 = 540

59. How many kg of apples did he purchase?
A. 5
B. 4
C. 6
D. 3
E. None of these Correct option is: A

60. If he purchases less quantity (in kg) of mangoes and the quantity of apples and bananas purchased remains same then he was left with 33.33% of the total amount. How many kg of total fruits did he purchase?
A. 10 Kg
B. 11 Kg
C. 9 Kg
D. 12 Kg
E. None of these

Correct option is: B Solution:
33.33% of 750 = Rs. 250

It means, he spent Rs. (750 – 250) = Rs. 500 he purchases less quantity (in kg) of mangoes the price of mangoes = Rs. 50 per kg
He spent Rs. 300 for buying apples and Rs. 100 for buying bananas. So he purchased mangoes worth Rs. 100

So he purchased 2 kg mangoes.

The total quantity of fruits he purchased = 5 + 4 + 2 = 11 kg

The number of cars of brands A and that of brand B manufactured in the year 2016 was in the ratio of 4: 5 respectively. The number of cars of brand A manufactured in the year 2016 to that in the year 2017 was in the ratio of 3: 2 and the number of cars of brand B manufactured in the year 2016 to that in the year 2017 was in the ratio of 3: 4. Further, the total number of cars manufactured in the year 2017 of brand C forms 30% of the total number of cars manufactured in the year 2017.

66. In the year 2016, total 1800 cars of brand A was manufactured then find the total number of cars of brand C manufactured in the year 2017?

A. 2100
B. 1800
C. 2700
D. 2400
E. None of these

Correct option is : B Solution:
Common explanation:

Let in the year 2016, The total number of cars of brand A manufactured = 4x then the total number of cars of brand B manufactured in that year = 5x

Let in the year 2017, total number of cars manufactured of brand A = P and that of brand B = Q then according to the question

4x : P = 3 : 2

8x = 3P
P = 8x
3

For the brand B, 5x : Q = 3 : 4
20x = 3Q
Q = 20x
3

= total number of cars manufactured of brand B in the year 2017 Following common explanation, we get

In the year 2016, The total number of cars of brand A manufactured = 4x = 1800

x = 1800 = 450
4

The total number of cars manufactured of brand A and B in the year 2017

= 8x + 20x = 28x = 28 × 450 = 4200
3 3 3 3

Let the total number of cars manufactured of brand C in the year 2017 = c then c = 30% of (4200 + c)
100c = 30 × 4200 + 30c

70c = 30 × 4200

c = 30 × 60 = 1800

67. What is the percentage increase in the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017 when compared to the total number of cars of both the brands manufactured in the year 2016? (approximately)
A. 45%
B. 52%
C. 48%
D. 56%
E. None of these

Correct option is : C solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017

= 8x + 20x + c = 28x + c
3 3 3

where c = total number of cars manufactured of brand C in the year 2017 28x
c = 30% of ( 3 + c)

100c – 30c = 70c = 30 × 28x
3

c = 12x
3

the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017
= 8x + 20x + c = 28x + 12x = 40x
3 3 3 3 3

the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2016 = 4x + 5x
= 9x the required percentage increase (40x – 9x)

68. In the next year i.e. in the year 2018, TATA Motors wants to increase its car manufacturing capacity by 25% compared to the previous year but it doesn’t want to make any changes in the number of cars manufactured in the previous year of any brands therefore it introduced a new brand D. Suppose TATA Motors had manufactured total number of 900 cars of brand C in the year 2017 , then in the year 2018 how many cars of brand D should it manufacture?
A. 825
B. 775
C. 725
D. 850
E. 750

Correct option is : E Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017

= 8x + 20x + c = 28x + c
3 3 3
where c = total number of cars manufactured of brand C in the year 2017
= 30% of ( 28x + c )
3

100c – 30c = 70c = 30 × 28x
3
c = 12x = 900
3

x = 900 = 225
4

the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017
= 8x + 20x + c = 28x + 12x = 40x = 40 × 225 = 3000
3 3 3 3 3 3

In the next year i.e. in the year 2018, TATA Motors wants to increase its car manufacturing capacity by 25% compare to the previous year

Therefore, in the year 2018, the total number of cars it will manufacture = 125% of 3000 = 3750

It doesn’t make a changes in any brand therefore the total number of brand D cars it will manufacture = 3750 – 3000 = 750

69. If in the year 2017, total 7000 cars were manufactured but the total number of cars manufactured in the year 2017 of brand C forms only 4% instead of 30% then find total how many cars of brand A were manufactured in the years 2016 and 2017 together?
A. 5200
B. 4200
C. 4650
D. 4800
E. None of these

Correct option is : D Solution :
Following common explanation, we get

The total number of cars of brands C manufactured in the year 2017 = 4% of 7000

Three friends Seeta, Reeta and Geeta spends 12%, 14% and 16% of their monthly salary on travelling in the given order and each of them save half of the remaining amount. The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta is same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta. The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.

76. What is the monthly expenditure of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling? A. Rs. 4240
B. Rs. 4120
C. Rs. 4120
D. Rs. 4480
E. None of these

Correct option is : B Solution:
Common explanation :

Let the monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x

Remaining = Rs. (100x – 12x) = Rs. 88x

Saving = 88x = Rs. 44x
2
Reeta’s month salary = Rs. 100y

 

The monthly salary of Geeta = The monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x The monthly expenditures of Geeta on travelling = 16% of 100x = Rs. 16x Remaining = Rs.(100x – 16x) = Rs. 84x
Saving = 84x = Rs. 42x
2

The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta are same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta

44x – 42x = 2x = 360

x = 180

The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.

12x + 14y = 16x + 1240

14y = 4x + 1240 = 720 + 1240 = 1960

y = 140

Following common explanation, we get

The monthly expenditure of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling = Rs. (12x + 14y) = Rs. (12 × 180 + 14 × 140)

= Rs. (2160 + 1960) = Rs. 4120

77. The monthly salary of Reeta is how much more than/less than that of Seeta?
A. Rs. 0
B. Rs. 3000 more
C. Rs. 4000 more
D. Rs. 3000 less
E. Rs. 4000 less

Correct option is : E Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The monthly salary of Reeta = Rs. 100y = Rs. 14000 The monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x = Rs. 18000
The required answer = Rs. (14000 – 18000) = 4000 less than that of Seeta

78. What is the sum of the saving of all the three friends together? A. Rs. 21500
B. Rs. 22480
C. Rs. 24000

D. Rs. 20800
E. None of these

Correct option is : A Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The required sum = Rs. (44x + 43y + 42x) = Rs. (86x + 43y) = Rs. (86 × 180 + 43
× 140) = Rs. (15480 + 6020) = Rs. 21500

79. The total monthly saving of three friends together is what percentage of their total monthly salary?
A. 42%
B. 44%
C. 41%
D. 43%
E. None of these

Correct option is : D Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

Their total monthly salary = Rs. (100x + 100y + 100x) = Rs. (200x + 100y) = Rs. (36000 + 14000) = Rs. 50000

Total monthly saving = Rs. (44x + 43y + 42x) = Rs. (86x + 43y) = Rs. (86 × 180 + 43 × 140) = Rs. (15480 + 6020) = Rs. 21500

The reqd. answer = 21500 × 100 = 43%
50000
80. By how much should Seeta’s monthly salary be increased so the monthly expenditures of Seeta on travelling will become equal to that of Geeta?
A. Rs. 4000
B. Rs. 6000
C. Rs. 8000
D. Rs. 3600
E. None of these Correct option is : B

Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The monthly expenditures of Seeta = Rs. 12X = Rs. 12 × 180 = Rs. 2160 The monthly expenditures of Geeta = Rs. 16X = Rs. 180 × 16 = Rs. 2880 Let the monthly salary of Seeta was increased by a% then
12% of [(100 + a)% of 18000] = 2880

12% of [18000 + a × 180] = 2880

2160 + 21.6a = 2880

21.6a = 720

a = 7200 % = 33.33%

Ram goes to a hill station by car. While going upwards (uphill) the consumption of petrol was increased by 25% of the normal consumption of petrol but while going downwards (downhill) the consumption of petrol was decreased by 50% of the normal consumption of petrol. He goes from the point A to the point B. The total distance between point A and point B is 525 km in which the total distance travelled by him uphill is 2.5 times of the total distance travelled by him downhill and the total distance travelled by him on the plane surface is 140 km. While coming back from the point B to point A, he saves 15 litres of petrol and the consumption of petrol is normal on plane surface.

86. What is the mileage of the car on downhill?
A. 1 litre per 10 kilometers
B. 1 litre per 15 kilometers
C. 1 litre per 17.5 kilometers
D. 1 litre per 15.5 kilometers
E. 1 litre per 16.5 kilometres

Correct option is :E Solution:
Common explanation :

Let the normal consumption of petrol = 4x litres per kilometre

While going Uphill, consumption of petrol = 5x litres per km (While going upwards (uphill) the consumption of petrol was increased by 25% of the normal consumption of petrol)

While going downhill, consumption of petrol = 2x litres per kilometre (while going downwards (downhill) the consumption of petrol was decreased by 50% of the normal consumption of petrol)

The total distance between A and B = 525 KM

Let the total distance travelled by him downhill = d km then, the total distance travelled by him uphill = 2.5d km

According to the question, 2.5d + d + 140 = 525
By solving, d = 385 = 110 km
3.5

Total uphill distance = 110 × 2.5 = 275 km Total downhill distance = 110 km
While going from the Point A to point B, the car will consume total petrol of

 

The total consumption of petrol while coming back from the point B to point A = 2X × 275 + 5X × 110 + 4X × 140 = 1660x litres (II)

According to the question, while coming back from the point B to point A, he saves 7 litres of petrol

It means, 2155x – 1660x = 15 litres

x = 15 = 1
495 33

2x litre per kilometre = 2 litre per kilometre
33
= 1 litre per 16.5 kilometres

87. If point A to point B were a plane surface then how many litres of petrol he would have consumed more while going and coming back?
A. 12 litres
B. 18.33 litres
C. 15.33 litres
D. 11.67 litres
E. 12.67 litres
Correct option is : D Solution:
The total petrol consumption while going and coming back

= 2155 + 1660 = 3815 litres

89. If the speed of car is 55 km per hour on the plane surface and while going uphill, the car’s speed was decreased by 25% of the normal speed and while going downhill the car’s speed was increased by 50% of the normal speed then approximately how much time he would have taken during the entire journey? (if he returns immediately from point B to point A)
A. 21.09 hours
B. 19.09 hours
C. 19.90 hours
D. 21.10 hours
E. 21.90 hours

Correct option is : B Solution:
While going from Point A to point B, Distance = 275 km uphill + 110 km downhill + 140 km on the place surface (i)

While coming back from the point B to point A

Distance = 140 km on the plane surface + 110 km uphill + 275 km downhill ——-
(ii)

The total distance while going and coming back = 280 km on the plane surface + 385 km uphill + 385 km downhill (by adding equation (i) and equation (ii))

On the plane surface, the speed of car = 55 km per hr

On uphill, the speed of the car = 75% of 55 = 41.25 km per hour

On downhill, the speed of the car = 150% of 55 = 82.50 km per hour

The total time taken = 280 + 385 + 385
55 41.25 82.50

= 5.09 + 9.33 + 4.67 = 19.09 hours approximately

A. 1 litres per 33 kilometres
B. 1 litres per 22 kilometres
C. 1 litres per 11 kilometres
D. 1 litres per 9 kilometres
E. 1 litres per 10 kilometres

Correct option is : C Solution:
The required difference = 5x – 2x = 3x = 3/33 = 1/11 litres per kilometres = 1 litres per 11 kilometres

91. In the year 2007, find the number of house-wives affected by malaria?
A. 60
B. 30
C. 50
D. 110
E. 150

Correct option is : B Solution:
In the year 2007, 30% of the population was affected by malaria out of which 10% were house-wives.

∴ The number of house-wives affected by malaria in the year 2007 = 10% of 30% of 1000 = 0.1 × 0.3 × 1000 = 30

92. In the year 2009, find the number of drivers who were not affected by malaria?

A. 110
B. 125
C. 415
D. 190
E. 90

Correct option is : E Solution:
The number of house-wives, students and drivers were in the ratio 20 : 11 : 9 in each year.

Let the common factor be x.

Also, every year 1000 people were surveyed.

∴ 20x + 11x + 9x = 1000

45% of 1000 = 450

Out of the 450 affected people, 30% were drivers. 30% of 450 = 135
Hence, the numbers of drivers who were not affected by malaria in the year 2009 = 225 − 135 = 90

93. What is the difference in the number of students affected and not affected by malaria in the year 2006?
A. 205
B. 35
C. 200
D. 240
E. 420

Correct option is : A Solution:
Total population of students for each year = 275

In the year 2006, the numbers of students affected by malaria = 60% of 40% of 1000 = 0.6 × 0.4 × 1000 = 240 students

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 240 = 35

∴ Difference between the two = 240 − 35 = 205

94. Find the ratio of the number of house-wives affected by malaria in the year 2005 to that affected by malaria in the year 2008.
A. 5 : 3
B. 9 : 4
C. 3 : 2
D. 2 : 1
E. 4 : 3

Correct option is : C Solution:
The number of house-wives affected by malaria in the year 2005 = 10% of 30% of 1000 = 0.1 × 0.3 × 1000 = 30

The number of house-wives affected by malaria in the year 2008 = 10% of 20% of 1000 = 0.1 × 0.2 × 1000 = 20

The required ratio = 30 : 20 = 3 : 2

95. Which year had the maximum number of students not affected by malaria? A. 2005
B. 2006
C. 2007
D. 2008
E. 2009

Correct option is : D Solution:

Total number of students = 275

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2005 = 60% of 30% of 1000 = 180

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 180 = 95

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2006 = 60% of 40% of 1000 = 240

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 240 = 35

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2007 = 60% of 30% of 1000 = 180

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 180 = 95

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2008 = 60% of 20% of 1000 = 120

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 120 = 155

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2009 = 60% of 45% of 1000 = 270

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 270 = 5

Thus, 2008 had the maximum number of students not affected by malaria.

Krishna invested some money under 20% per annum simple interest in Axis bank. At the end of one – year, he withdrew all amount from the Axis bank and invested in Bandhan bank at the rate of R % per annum under compound interest compounded annually for two years and received Rs. 57600 as total interest from the Bandhan bank. The first year’s interest at Bandhan bank was Rs. 24000.

96. In starting, how much money had Krishna invested in Axis bank? A. Rs. 60000
B. Rs. 75000

C. Rs. 10000
D. Rs. 50000
E. None of these

Correct option is : D Solution:
Common explanation :

Let the sum of money he invested in Axis bank = 100x then at the end of one year

Amount = 100x × 1 × 20 + 100x= 120x
100

The CI of 2 years = 57600 The CI of 1 year = 24000
Difference = 57600 – 24000 = 33600

Now, 33600 – 24000 = 9600

 

24000 × R
= 9600
100

R = 40% per annum

Following the common explanation, we get

At 40% per annum, 120x gives compound interest of 57600 in two years or Rs. 24000 in one year

R N
CI = P ( 1 + ) – P
100

120x ( 1 + 40 ) – 120x = 24000
100

120x × 1.4 – 120x = 24000

168x – 120x = 48x = 24000

x = 24000 = 500
48

The sum of money he had invested in Axis bank = 100x = 100 × 500 = Rs. 50000

97. Total how much interest did Krishna get from the Axis bank and the Bandhan bank together?
A. Rs. 68600
B. Rs. 67600
C. Rs. 64600
D. Rs. 71200
E. None of these

Correct option is : B Solution:
Following the common explanation, we get

The required sum = 10,000 + 57600 = 67600

98. If the rate of interest was interchanged i.e. Axis bank had offered R% per annum simple interest and Bandhan bank had offered 20% per annum compound interest then how much less money Krishan would have received at the end of 3 years?
A. Rs. 16800
B. Rs. 15800
C. Rs. 14800
D. Rs. 16400
E. None of these Correct option is : A Solution:

Following the common explanation, we get P = 50000
R = 40%

1st year = 40% per annum SI Next 2 years = 20% per annum CI
Amount at the end of 1st year i.e. received from the Axis bank = 50000 + 40% of 50000 = 70000

SI = 70000 – 50000 = 20000

From the Bandhan bank

R N
CI = P ( 1 + ) – P
100

CI = 70000 (1 + 20 )2

– 70000

100

CI = 30800

Total interest = 20000 + 30800 = 50800

The interest, Krishna received from Axis bank = 20x = 20 × 500 = 10,000 The interest from Bandhan bank = 57600
The required sum = 10,000 + 57600 = 67600

The required difference = 67600 – 50800 = 16800

99. If Krishan had invested the sum of money only in Axis bank for 3 years under 20% per annum simple interest then at the end of 3 years, total how much simple interest he would have received from the Axis bank?
A. Rs. 25000
B. Rs. 30000

C. Rs. 40000
D. Rs. 20000
E. None of these

Correct option is : B Solution:
Following the common explanation, we get P = 50000
SI at the end of 3 years = 50000 × 20 × 3 = Rs. 30,000
100

100. If the first year’s interest at Bandhan bank was same as the simple interest received from the Axis bank at the end of 1 year and the rate of interest for the Bandhan bank remained constant then what should be the rate of interest for Axis bank?
A. 40%
B. 50%
C. 662 %
3

D. 522 %
5

E. 882 %
3

Correct option is :C Solution:
Following the common explanation, we get P = 50,000
Let the interest received from the Axis bank = Rs. x then

the first year’s interest at Bandhan bank = 40% of (50000 + x) = x 20000 + 0.4x = x

0.6x = 20000

x = 200000 = 100000

E. None of these Correct option is: A
35. The number of marks obtained by the candidate in the subject C was how much percentage less than that of subject E?
A. 45%
B. 40%
C. 65%
D. 35%
E. None of these Correct option is: D
Solution:
Let the marks scored by the candidate in the subject F = 10x then

The marks scored by the candidate in the subject A = 80% of 10x = 8x

The ratio of marks scored in B to that in C is 4 : 5 and that D to E is 3 : 4. The number of marks scored by the candidate in E is 25% more than that of F

In E, the marks obtained = 125% of 10x = 25x = 4a
2

Then, the marks obtained in D = 3 × 25 = 75x
2 × 4 8

The marks obtained in C = 5y = 65

The marks obtained in B = 4y = 65 × 4 = 52
5

According to the question,

A + B + C + D + E + F = 218 × 6
3

8x + 52 + 65 + 75x + 25x + 10x = 436
8 2

8x + 75x + 25x + 10x= 436 – 52 – 65 = 319
8 2

(64x + 75x + 100x + 80x) = 319 × 8

x = 8

The total marks = z then 48 4 % of z = 436
9

By solving, z = 436 × 900 = 900
436

B. 0.32
C. 0.18
D. 0.12
E. None of these

Correct option is: D Solution:
P(Win first game)* P(Win second game)= 0.4*0.3=0.12

37. Find the probability that India wins at least one of the first two games. A. 0.48
B. 0.32
C. 0.56
D. 0.52
E. 0.58

Correct option is: D Solution:
P(won at least 1 game)= 1- P(won no games)
=1- [P(lost 1st game)*P(lost second game)]
=1- [(1-0.4)*(1-0.2)]
in the second bracket because after losing the first game the probability of wining the second match is 0.2. So 1-0.2 is the probability of losing that game too.

B. 0.396
C. 0.096
D. 0.404

E. 0.214

Correct option is: D Solution:
This problem can be solved in three parts
Part 1- India wins first game and loses second and third part 2= Lose + Win + Lose
Part 3= Lose + Lose+ Win
P (Part 1)= India wins first game * India loses second game* India loses third game
= 0.4 * (1-0.3)* (1-0.2)= 0.4*0.7*0.8 = 0.224
P (Part2)= India loses first game * Wins second game * Loses third game
= (1-0.4)* 0.2 * (1-0.3)= 0.6*0.2*0.7= 0.084
P (Part 3)= L*L*W = (1-0.4)* (1-0.2) * 0.2= 0.6*0.8*0.2= 0.096
P= P1+P2+P3= 0.404

45. The total number of female population in Bhainaa tribe is how much percentage more than that of Koliya tribe?
A. 200%
B. 250%
C. 150%
D. 50%
E. 100%
Correct option is: E Solution:
Let the population of Koliya = 2x then the ppulatin of Bhainaa = 150% of 2x = 3x
……… (i)

Let the number of males = 11a then the number of females = 9a (ii)

In Koliya tribe, let the number of male = 5b then the number of female = (100 – 40)% of 5b = 60% of 5b = 3b = 1200

b = 400

Then x = 1600

 

In Bhainaa tribe, the male population = c = the number of female populations

= 4800 = 2400
2

From the equation (ii)
The number of males = 11 × 8000 = 4400
20

The number of female populations = 9 × 8000 = 3600

A. 21 : 11
B. 2 : 1
C. 25 : 13
D. 23 : 13
E. None of these
Correct option is: D Solution:
The total share of daughter = half of gold + 20% of land + 75% of cash amount

= 6 lakhs + 20% of 5 lakhs + 75% of 80 thousand
2

= 3 lakhs + 1 lakhs + 60 thousand = 4 lakhs 60 thousand Remaining Gold = 6 lakhs – 3 lakhs = 3 lakhs Remaining Land = 5 lakhs – 1 lakhs = 4 lakhs Remaining Cash = 80000 – 60000 = 20000
The share of son A = (1/2) of remaining gold + (3/4) of remaining land + (1/2) of remaining cash

= 1.5 lakhs + 3 lakhs + 10 thousand = 4.6 lakhs

The share of son B = (1/2) of remaining gold + (1/4) of remaining land + (1/2) of remaining cash

= 1.5 lakhs + 1 lakhs + 10 thousand = 2.6 lakhs

A person went to market with Rs. 750. He purchased x kg apples, 4 kg bananas and 6 kg mangoes. After purchasing, he was left with Rs. 50 in his pocket. When he calculated, he found that the amount spent to purchase apples was equal to the amount spent to purchase mangoes, the amount spent to purchase bananas was one third of the amount spent to purchase apples and the total quantity of apples purchased by him was half of the total quantity of bananas and mangoes together purchased by him.

56. What is the ratio of price per kg of apples to price per kg of banana? A. 4 : 1
B. 5 : 3
C. 12 : 5

D. 24 : 13
E. None of these

Correct option is: C Solution:
Common explanation :

The total money spent = Rs. (750 – 50) = Rs. 700

Let the price of apples per kg = Rs. a, price of banana per kg = Rs. b, price of mangoes per kg = Rs. c

Then, according to the question, x × a + 4 × b + 6 × c = 700

The amount spent to purchase apples was equal to the amount spent to purchase mangoes

then, xa = 6c, a : c = 6 : x

x = 6 + 4 = 10 = 5 kg
2 2

The amount spent to purchase bananas was one third of the amount spent to purchase apples

4b = 1 × xa = 1 × 6c
3 3

4b = 2c

b : c = 1 : 2 (ii)

a : b : c = 60 : 25 : 50

Let the price per kg of apple = Rs. 60p, then price of banana per kg = Rs. 25p and

price of mangoes per kg = Rs. 50p x × a + 4 × b + 6 × c = 700
5a + 4b + 6c = 700

5 × 60p + 4 × 25p + 6 × 50p = 700

300p + 100p + 300p = 700p = 700

p = 1

It means, the price per kg of apple = Rs. 60p = Rs. 60

Price per kg of banana = Rs. 25p = Rs. 25 andprice per kg of mangoes = Rs. 50p = Rs. 50

57. How much money did he spend to purchase mangoes?
A. Rs. 240
B. Rs. 300
C. Rs. 324
D. Rs. 306
E. None of these

Correct option is: B Solution:
The total he spends to purchase mangoes = 6c = 6 × 50 = 300
58. If he purchases two kg mangoes, 1 kg apples, and 2 kg banana then how much money will he left with in his pocket?
A. Rs. 210
B. Rs. 580
C. Rs. 540
D. Rs. 520
E. None of these

Correct option is: C Solution:
The price of two kg mangoes, 1 kg apples, and 2 kg banana = 2 × 50 + 1 × 60 + 2 × 25 = 100 + 60 + 50 = 210

The required difference = 750 – 210 = 540

59. How many kg of apples did he purchase?
A. 5
B. 4
C. 6
D. 3
E. None of these Correct option is: A

60. If he purchases less quantity (in kg) of mangoes and the quantity of apples and bananas purchased remains same then he was left with 33.33% of the total amount. How many kg of total fruits did he purchase?
A. 10 Kg
B. 11 Kg
C. 9 Kg
D. 12 Kg
E. None of these

Correct option is: B Solution:
33.33% of 750 = Rs. 250

It means, he spent Rs. (750 – 250) = Rs. 500 he purchases less quantity (in kg) of mangoes the price of mangoes = Rs. 50 per kg
He spent Rs. 300 for buying apples and Rs. 100 for buying bananas. So he purchased mangoes worth Rs. 100

So he purchased 2 kg mangoes.

The total quantity of fruits he purchased = 5 + 4 + 2 = 11 kg

Directions (66 – 70): Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given beside.

TATA Motors (A Car manufacturing company) manufactured only two brands of cars A and B in the year 2016. In the year 2017, it introduced a new brand of car C. The number of cars of brands A and that of brand B manufactured in the year 2016 was in the ratio of 4: 5 respectively. The number of cars of brand A manufactured in the year 2016 to that in the year 2017 was in the ratio of 3: 2 and the number of cars of brand B manufactured in the year 2016 to that in the year 2017 was in the ratio of 3: 4. Further, the total number of cars manufactured in the year 2017 of brand C forms 30% of the total number of cars manufactured in the year 2017.

66. In the year 2016, total 1800 cars of brand A was manufactured then find the total number of cars of brand C manufactured in the year 2017?

A. 2100
B. 1800
C. 2700
D. 2400
E. None of these

Correct option is : B Solution:
Common explanation:

Let in the year 2016, The total number of cars of brand A manufactured = 4x then the total number of cars of brand B manufactured in that year = 5x

Let in the year 2017, total number of cars manufactured of brand A = P and that of brand B = Q then according to the question

4x : P = 3 : 2

8x = 3P
P = 8x
3

For the brand B, 5x : Q = 3 : 4
20x = 3Q
Q = 20x
3

= total number of cars manufactured of brand B in the year 2017 Following common explanation, we get

In the year 2016, The total number of cars of brand A manufactured = 4x = 1800

x = 1800 = 450
4

The total number of cars manufactured of brand A and B in the year 2017

= 8x + 20x = 28x = 28 × 450 = 4200
3 3 3 3

Let the total number of cars manufactured of brand C in the year 2017 = c then c = 30% of (4200 + c)
100c = 30 × 4200 + 30c

70c = 30 × 4200

c = 30 × 60 = 1800

67. What is the percentage increase in the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017 when compared to the total number of cars of both the brands manufactured in the year 2016? (approximately)
A. 45%
B. 52%
C. 48%
D. 56%
E. None of these

Correct option is : C solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017

= 8x + 20x + c = 28x + c
3 3 3

where c = total number of cars manufactured of brand C in the year 2017 28x
c = 30% of ( 3 + c)

100c – 30c = 70c = 30 × 28x
3

c = 12x
3

the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017
= 8x + 20x + c = 28x + 12x = 40x
3 3 3 3 3

the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2016 = 4x + 5x
= 9x the required percentage increase (40x – 9x)
= 3 × 100 = 13 × 100 = 1300 = 48.15% approximately

68. In the next year i.e. in the year 2018, TATA Motors wants to increase its car manufacturing capacity by 25% compared to the previous year but it doesn’t want to make any changes in the number of cars manufactured in the previous year of any brands therefore it introduced a new brand D. Suppose TATA Motors had manufactured total number of 900 cars of brand C in the year 2017 , then in the year 2018 how many cars of brand D should it manufacture?
A. 825
B. 775
C. 725
D. 850
E. 750

Correct option is : E Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017

= 8x + 20x + c = 28x + c
3 3 3
where c = total number of cars manufactured of brand C in the year 2017
= 30% of ( 28x + c )
3

100c – 30c = 70c = 30 × 28x
3
c = 12x = 900
3

x = 900 = 225
4

the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017
= 8x + 20x + c = 28x + 12x = 40x = 40 × 225 = 3000
3 3 3 3 3 3

In the next year i.e. in the year 2018, TATA Motors wants to increase its car manufacturing capacity by 25% compare to the previous year

Therefore, in the year 2018, the total number of cars it will manufacture = 125% of 3000 = 3750

It doesn’t make a changes in any brand therefore the total number of brand D cars it will manufacture = 3750 – 3000 = 750

69. If in the year 2017, total 7000 cars were manufactured but the total number of cars manufactured in the year 2017 of brand C forms only 4% instead of 30% then find total how many cars of brand A were manufactured in the years 2016 and 2017 together?
A. 5200
B. 4200
C. 4650
D. 4800
E. None of these

Correct option is : D Solution :
Following common explanation, we get

The total number of cars of brands C manufactured in the year 2017 = 4% of 7000
= 280

The total number of cars manufactured of brand A and B in the year 2017

= 8x + 20x = 28x = 7000 – 280 = 6720
3 3 3

x = 6720 × 3 = 240 × 3 = 720
28

total cars of brand A manufactured in the years 2016 and 2017 together

= 4x + 8x = 20x = 20 × 720 = 4800
3 3 3

70. If in the year 2017, 900 cars of brand B was manufactured then find the sum of the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2016 and 2017 together?
A. 2995
B. 3015
C. 3250
D. 2775
E. None of these

Correct option is : B Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

20x = 900
3

x = 45 × 3 = 135

the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2017

= 8x + 20x + c = 28x + 12x = 40x
3 3 3 3 3

the total number of cars of all the brands manufactured in the year 2016 = 4x + 5x

D. 7 : 5
E. None of these

Correct option is : A Solution:
Common Explanation:

And the given ratio of Male to Female = 7 : 5, Therefore, man will be 700 and female will be 500.

Baba Male Followers (700) Female Followers (500)
Only Baba1 10% of 700 = 70 18% of 500 = 90
Only Baba 2 20% of 700 = 140 10% of 500 = 50

Only Baba 3 12% of 700 = 84 12% of 500 = 60
Only Baba1 and Baba3 10% of 700 = 70 20% of 500 = 100
Only Baba3 and Baba2 18% of 700 = 126 12% of 500 = 60
Only Baba1 and Baba2 20% of 700 = 140 8% of 500 = 40
All the Babas 700 – (70+140+84+126+70+140)
= 70 500 – (90+50+60+100+60+40)
= 100

Following the common explanation, we get

The number of male followers who follow Baba2 = 140 + 126 + 140 + 70 = 476

∴ Reqd ratio = 476 = 238
= 238 : 165

Three friends Seeta, Reeta and Geeta spends 12%, 14% and 16% of their monthly salary on travelling in the given order and each of them save half of the remaining amount. The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta is same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta. The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.

76. What is the monthly expenditure of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling? A. Rs. 4240
B. Rs. 4120
C. Rs. 4120
D. Rs. 4480
E. None of these

Correct option is : B Solution:
Common explanation :

Let the monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x

Remaining = Rs. (100x – 12x) = Rs. 88x

Saving = 88x = Rs. 44x
2
Reeta’s month salary = Rs. 100y

 

The monthly salary of Geeta = The monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x The monthly expenditures of Geeta on travelling = 16% of 100x = Rs. 16x Remaining = Rs.(100x – 16x) = Rs. 84x
Saving = 84x = Rs. 42x
2

The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta are same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta

44x – 42x = 2x = 360

x = 180

The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.

12x + 14y = 16x + 1240

14y = 4x + 1240 = 720 + 1240 = 1960

y = 140

Following common explanation, we get

The monthly expenditure of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling = Rs. (12x + 14y) = Rs. (12 × 180 + 14 × 140)

= Rs. (2160 + 1960) = Rs. 4120

77. The monthly salary of Reeta is how much more than/less than that of Seeta?
A. Rs. 0
B. Rs. 3000 more
C. Rs. 4000 more
D. Rs. 3000 less
E. Rs. 4000 less

Correct option is : E Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The monthly salary of Reeta = Rs. 100y = Rs. 14000 The monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x = Rs. 18000
The required answer = Rs. (14000 – 18000) = 4000 less than that of Seeta

78. What is the sum of the saving of all the three friends together? A. Rs. 21500
B. Rs. 22480
C. Rs. 24000

D. Rs. 20800
E. None of these

Correct option is : A Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The required sum = Rs. (44x + 43y + 42x) = Rs. (86x + 43y) = Rs. (86 × 180 + 43
× 140) = Rs. (15480 + 6020) = Rs. 21500

79. The total monthly saving of three friends together is what percentage of their total monthly salary?
A. 42%
B. 44%
C. 41%
D. 43%
E. None of these

Correct option is : D Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

Their total monthly salary = Rs. (100x + 100y + 100x) = Rs. (200x + 100y) = Rs. (36000 + 14000) = Rs. 50000

Total monthly saving = Rs. (44x + 43y + 42x) = Rs. (86x + 43y) = Rs. (86 × 180 + 43 × 140) = Rs. (15480 + 6020) = Rs. 21500

The reqd. answer = 21500 × 100 = 43%
50000
80. By how much should Seeta’s monthly salary be increased so the monthly expenditures of Seeta on travelling will become equal to that of Geeta?
A. Rs. 4000
B. Rs. 6000
C. Rs. 8000
D. Rs. 3600
E. None of these Correct option is : B

Solution:
Following common explanation, we get

The monthly expenditures of Seeta = Rs. 12X = Rs. 12 × 180 = Rs. 2160 The monthly expenditures of Geeta = Rs. 16X = Rs. 180 × 16 = Rs. 2880 Let the monthly salary of Seeta was increased by a% then
12% of [(100 + a)% of 18000] = 2880

12% of [18000 + a × 180] = 2880

2160 + 21.6a = 2880

21.6a = 720

a = 7200 % = 33.33%

Ram goes to a hill station by car. While going upwards (uphill) the consumption of petrol was increased by 25% of the normal consumption of petrol but while going downwards (downhill) the consumption of petrol was decreased by 50% of the normal consumption of petrol. He goes from the point A to the point B. The total distance between point A and point B is 525 km in which the total distance travelled by him uphill is 2.5 times of the total distance travelled by him downhill and the total distance travelled by him on the plane surface is 140 km. While coming back from the point B to point A, he saves 15 litres of petrol and the consumption of petrol is normal on plane surface.

86. What is the mileage of the car on downhill?
A. 1 litre per 10 kilometers
B. 1 litre per 15 kilometers
C. 1 litre per 17.5 kilometers
D. 1 litre per 15.5 kilometers
E. 1 litre per 16.5 kilometres

Correct option is :E Solution:
Common explanation :

Let the normal consumption of petrol = 4x litres per kilometre

While going Uphill, consumption of petrol = 5x litres per km (While going upwards (uphill) the consumption of petrol was increased by 25% of the normal consumption of petrol)

While going downhill, consumption of petrol = 2x litres per kilometre (while going downwards (downhill) the consumption of petrol was decreased by 50% of the normal consumption of petrol)

The total distance between A and B = 525 KM

Let the total distance travelled by him downhill = d km then, the total distance travelled by him uphill = 2.5d km

According to the question, 2.5d + d + 140 = 525
By solving, d = 385 = 110 km
3.5

Total uphill distance = 110 × 2.5 = 275 km Total downhill distance = 110 km
While going from the Point A to point B, the car will consume total petrol of

 

The total consumption of petrol while coming back from the point B to point A = 2X × 275 + 5X × 110 + 4X × 140 = 1660x litres (II)

According to the question, while coming back from the point B to point A, he saves 7 litres of petrol

It means, 2155x – 1660x = 15 litres

x = 15 = 1
495 33

2x litre per kilometre = 2 litre per kilometre
33
= 1 litre per 16.5 kilometres

87. If point A to point B were a plane surface then how many litres of petrol he would have consumed more while going and coming back?
A. 12 litres
B. 18.33 litres
C. 15.33 litres
D. 11.67 litres
E. 12.67 litres

89. If the speed of car is 55 km per hour on the plane surface and while going uphill, the car’s speed was decreased by 25% of the normal speed and while going downhill the car’s speed was increased by 50% of the normal speed then approximately how much time he would have taken during the entire journey? (if he returns immediately from point B to point A)
A. 21.09 hours
B. 19.09 hours
C. 19.90 hours
D. 21.10 hours
E. 21.90 hours

Correct option is : B Solution:
While going from Point A to point B, Distance = 275 km uphill + 110 km downhill + 140 km on the place surface (i)

While coming back from the point B to point A

Distance = 140 km on the plane surface + 110 km uphill + 275 km downhill ——-
(ii)

The total distance while going and coming back = 280 km on the plane surface + 385 km uphill + 385 km downhill (by adding equation (i) and equation (ii))

On the plane surface, the speed of car = 55 km per hr

On uphill, the speed of the car = 75% of 55 = 41.25 km per hour

On downhill, the speed of the car = 150% of 55 = 82.50 km per hour

The total time taken = 280 + 385 + 385
55 41.25 82.50

= 5.09 + 9.33 + 4.67 = 19.09 hours approximately

B. 1 litres per 22 kilometres
C. 1 litres per 11 kilometres
D. 1 litres per 9 kilometres
E. 1 litres per 10 kilometres

Correct option is : C Solution:
The required difference = 5x – 2x = 3x = 3/33 = 1/11 litres per kilometres = 1 litres per 11 kilometres

Direction (91 – 95): Answer the following question based on the information given below.

91. In the year 2007, find the number of house-wives affected by malaria?
A. 60
B. 30
C. 50
D. 110
E. 150

Correct option is : B Solution:
In the year 2007, 30% of the population was affected by malaria out of which 10% were house-wives.

∴ The number of house-wives affected by malaria in the year 2007 = 10% of 30% of 1000 = 0.1 × 0.3 × 1000 = 30

92. In the year 2009, find the number of drivers who were not affected by malaria?

A. 110
B. 125
C. 415
D. 190
E. 90

Correct option is : E Solution:
The number of house-wives, students and drivers were in the ratio 20 : 11 : 9 in each year.

Let the common factor be x.

Also, every year 1000 people were surveyed.

∴ 20x + 11x + 9x = 1000

45% of 1000 = 450

Out of the 450 affected people, 30% were drivers. 30% of 450 = 135
Hence, the numbers of drivers who were not affected by malaria in the year 2009 = 225 − 135 = 90

93. What is the difference in the number of students affected and not affected by malaria in the year 2006?
A. 205
B. 35
C. 200
D. 240
E. 420

Correct option is : A Solution:
Total population of students for each year = 275

In the year 2006, the numbers of students affected by malaria = 60% of 40% of 1000 = 0.6 × 0.4 × 1000 = 240 students

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 240 = 35

∴ Difference between the two = 240 − 35 = 205

94. Find the ratio of the number of house-wives affected by malaria in the year 2005 to that affected by malaria in the year 2008.
A. 5 : 3
B. 9 : 4
C. 3 : 2
D. 2 : 1
E. 4 : 3

Correct option is : C Solution:
The number of house-wives affected by malaria in the year 2005 = 10% of 30% of 1000 = 0.1 × 0.3 × 1000 = 30

The number of house-wives affected by malaria in the year 2008 = 10% of 20% of 1000 = 0.1 × 0.2 × 1000 = 20

The required ratio = 30 : 20 = 3 : 2

95. Which year had the maximum number of students not affected by malaria? A. 2005
B. 2006
C. 2007
D. 2008
E. 2009

Correct option is : D Solution:

Total number of students = 275

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2005 = 60% of 30% of 1000 = 180

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 180 = 95

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2006 = 60% of 40% of 1000 = 240

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 240 = 35

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2007 = 60% of 30% of 1000 = 180

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 180 = 95

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2008 = 60% of 20% of 1000 = 120

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 120 = 155

The number of students affected by malaria in the year 2009 = 60% of 45% of 1000 = 270

∴ The number of students not affected by malaria = 275 − 270 = 5

Thus, 2008 had the maximum number of students not affected by malaria.

Directions (96 – 100): Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given beside.

Krishna invested some money under 20% per annum simple interest in Axis bank. At the end of one – year, he withdrew all amount from the Axis bank and invested in Bandhan bank at the rate of R % per annum under compound interest compounded annually for two years and received Rs. 57600 as total interest from the Bandhan bank. The first year’s interest at Bandhan bank was Rs. 24000.

96. In starting, how much money had Krishna invested in Axis bank? A. Rs. 60000
B. Rs. 75000

C. Rs. 10000
D. Rs. 50000
E. None of these

Correct option is : D Solution:
Common explanation :

Let the sum of money he invested in Axis bank = 100x then at the end of one year

Amount = 100x × 1 × 20 + 100x= 120x
100

The CI of 2 years = 57600 The CI of 1 year = 24000
Difference = 57600 – 24000 = 33600

Now, 33600 – 24000 = 9600

 

24000 × R
= 9600
100

R = 40% per annum

Following the common explanation, we get

At 40% per annum, 120x gives compound interest of 57600 in two years or Rs. 24000 in one year

R N
CI = P ( 1 + ) – P
100

120x ( 1 + 40 ) – 120x = 24000
100

120x × 1.4 – 120x = 24000

168x – 120x = 48x = 24000

x = 24000 = 500
48

The sum of money he had invested in Axis bank = 100x = 100 × 500 = Rs. 50000

97. Total how much interest did Krishna get from the Axis bank and the Bandhan bank together?
A. Rs. 68600
B. Rs. 67600
C. Rs. 64600
D. Rs. 71200
E. None of these

Correct option is : B Solution:
Following the common explanation, we get

The required sum = 10,000 + 57600 = 67600

98. If the rate of interest was interchanged i.e. Axis bank had offered R% per annum simple interest and Bandhan bank had offered 20% per annum compound interest then how much less money Krishan would have received at the end of 3 years?
A. Rs. 16800
B. Rs. 15800
C. Rs. 14800
D. Rs. 16400
E. None of these Correct option is : A Solution:

Following the common explanation, we get P = 50000
R = 40%

1st year = 40% per annum SI Next 2 years = 20% per annum CI
Amount at the end of 1st year i.e. received from the Axis bank = 50000 + 40% of 50000 = 70000

SI = 70000 – 50000 = 20000

From the Bandhan bank

R N
CI = P ( 1 + ) – P
100

CI = 70000 (1 + 20 )2

– 70000

100

CI = 30800

Total interest = 20000 + 30800 = 50800

The interest, Krishna received from Axis bank = 20x = 20 × 500 = 10,000 The interest from Bandhan bank = 57600
The required sum = 10,000 + 57600 = 67600

The required difference = 67600 – 50800 = 16800

99. If Krishan had invested the sum of money only in Axis bank for 3 years under 20% per annum simple interest then at the end of 3 years, total how much simple interest he would have received from the Axis bank?
A. Rs. 25000
B. Rs. 30000

C. Rs. 40000
D. Rs. 20000
E. None of these

Correct option is : B Solution:
Following the common explanation, we get P = 50000
SI at the end of 3 years = 50000 × 20 × 3 = Rs. 30,000
100

100. If the first year’s interest at Bandhan bank was same as the simple interest received from the Axis bank at the end of 1 year and the rate of interest for the Bandhan bank remained constant then what should be the rate of interest for Axis bank?
A. 40%
B. 50%
C. 662 %
3

D. 522 %
5

E. 882 %
3

Correct option is :C Solution:
Following the common explanation, we get P = 50,000
Let the interest received from the Axis bank = Rs. x then

the first year’s interest at Bandhan bank = 40% of (50000 + x) = x 20000 + 0.4x = x

0.6x = 20000

x = 200000 = 100000
6 3

R = SI × 100
P × T

R = (100000/3) × 100 = 1000 = 200 % = 66 2 %
50000 × 1 15 3
