Answers:
1. 3;
Total runs = 6050 = 3000 runs
After excluding two innings.
Total runs = 4858 = 2784 runs
H + L = 216, and H L = 180
Lowest (L) = 18runs

2. 3;
Salary spends in Households item = 50%
Transport = 50% of remaining salary
Entertainment and sports = (10 + 5)%

Remaining salary Households item = 50%

Transport = 50%
Entertainment and sports = 85%
Now, 1/2 * 1/2 * 17/20 * total salary = 1020
Total salary = Rs. 4800

Expenditure on transport = 4800 * 1/2 * 1/2 = Rs. 1200

1 day work hen they work together
= 1/2(1/15 + 1/20 + 1/12) = 1/2{(4 + 3 + 5)}/60 = 1/2 * 12/60 = 1/10

Together they can complete in 10 days.

Answers:
1-5): From the given information we get:

Now, from the above information we get

Passed
 yoursmahboob.wordpress.com

Fig III

Again from the above information we get:

Note that,

Passed in Physics only implies failed in Mathematics and

Chemistry only.
Passed in Physics and Chemistry only implies failed in
Mathematics only.
Failed

Fig IV

And, ? = 824 - (140 + 240 + 180) = 264

Thus, we get
Failed

Fig V
 yoursmahboob.wordpress.com
1. 2;
See figure IV.
The number of required students = 1500 - 676 = 824

2. 3;
See figure IV.
The number of required students = 140 + 120 + 160 = 420

3. 5;
According to the given information, 206 students passed in all the three
subjects.
This implies that the remaining (1500 - 206 =) 1294 students failed in at least
one subject.

4. 1;
See figure V.

5. 4;
See figure II.
The required number of students = 190 + 180 + 240 + 160 + 120 + 140 + 206
= 1236

Or, from figure V,

the required number of students = 1500 - 264 = 1236

6. 2; Expenditure of Company A in 2001

= 40 * 100/130 = Rs. 30.76 lakhs

7. 4

8. 4
Income of Company C in 2000
= 36 * 130/100 = Rs. 46.8 lakhs

9. 3
Required ratio = 135 : 145 = 27 : 29

10. 1
Expenditure of Company D in 2000
= 51 * 100/145 = 35.17 lakhs

Profit = Income - Expenditure

= 51 - 37.17 = Rs. 15.83 lakhs

3. 1
Let the cost price of mobile be Rs. x and laptop be Rs.(78000-x)
x * 25/100 - (78000-x) * 15/100 = 78000 * 5/100
25x + 15x 78000 15 = 78000 5
40x = 78000 20
x = Rs. 39000

4.3;
Suppose the man works overtime for x hours.
Now, working hours in 5 week = 5 6 8 = 240 hr.
240 40 + x 45 = 10, 500
9600 + 45x = 10,500
x = (10500 - 9600)/45 = 20hr
Total hours = 240 + 20 = 260hr

5. 4; Let the number of boys and girls be x each

3(x 10) = x 2x = 30
x = 15
Total number of students = 2x = 30

6. 2; Number of questions attempted correctly

= 70% of 10 + 50% of 30 + 60% of 45

Passing grade = 60/100 * 85 = 51

Reqd Ans = 51 - 49 = 2

7. 5; Total paint required = 45 + wastage = 45 + x

x/(45 + x) * 100 = 6.25

100x = 281.25 + 6.25x
x = 3kg

Total number of tins = (45 + 3)/4 = 12 tins

Sugar contained = 5/100 * 8 = 0.4

For remaining distance, let both take t days
to reach the final destination.
x 96 = 2 12 t
x 96 = 24 t .......... (i)
and x 160 = 20 t ...... (ii)
From (i) and (ii); we get,
x 96 x + 160 = 24 t 20 t
64 = 4 t
t = 16 days.
Total number of days = 16 + 8 = 24 days.

10. 2
Q's share = 1 / (1 + 5/100)^6 : 1 / (1 + 5/100)^8

1.(a) Here volume of water emptied by the second pipe will be 4 times to that
of first Hence, Time take will be 1/4 of the first pipe. When both the pipes are
open the part of the tank emptied in 1 minute= 1/8 Hence the tank will be
emptied in 8 minutes.

2.(d) (A+B+C) one days work =1/10+ 1/15+1/12= 1/4

Hence together they complete the work in 4 days
 yoursmahboob.wordpress.com
3.(a) MP of 30 = SP 40
MP/SP = 40/30
Discount = (10/40)*100= 25%

4.(a) Area =base X height =6.5X10 = 65cm2

Let the diagonal of rhombus be d1 and d2.
Area = 1/2 d1d2 = 65
= 1/2X 26X d2 = 65
d2 = 5

5.(b) Let the age of younger one be x and other x+5

so, x+(x+5) = 35
x= 15

6.(a)

7.(e) a:b:c = 8:12:15

a^2: b^2 :c^2: =64:144:225

1. 1
He sells 920 grams of rice and gains 80 grams
Gain % = 80/920 * 100 = 8.69%

2. 2
Let the number of days he was absent be x days.
180 (40 x) 20 x = 5200
 yoursmahboob.wordpress.com
7200 180x 20x = 5200
7200 200x = 5200
x = 2000/20 = 10 days

5. 5
Let Manorama sons age be x years
Manoramas age = 6x
(6x + 7)/(x + 7) = 11/3
18x + 21 = 11x + 77
7x = 56
x=8
Manoramas present age = 6x = 48 years

Amount of salt in 40 kg of solution = 4/100 * 40 = 1.6 kg
Let x kg of pure salt be added.
Then, (1.6 + x)/ (40 + x) = 12/100
160 + 100x = 480 + 12x
88x = 320
x = 3.64 kg

7. 3
(80x + 94y)/(x + y) = 86
80x + 94y = 86x + 86y
8y = 6x

16 * 5/2 = 40
40 * 5/2 = 250
250 * 5/2 = 625 not equal to 630

Hence there should be 625 in place of 7630

8. 4:
The series is:
21 2 1 = 41 not equal to 48
41 4 2 = 162
162 6 3 = 969
969 8 4 = 7748
Hence, there should 41 in place of 48.

The series is
128 * 5/2 = 320
320 * 7/2 = 1120
1120 * 9/2 = 5040

C1 ---- 12.94%
C2 ---- 32%
C3 ---- 14.28%
C4 ---- Decrease
C5 ---- 50%
C6 ---- 4%
C7 ---- 44%

Hence, minimum increase is in the college C6
