Answers :

1) Answer: D

Weight of third lightest person=x

51*5=52*2+48*2+x

255-200=x

x=55 kg


2) Answer: A

The average weight of A, B and C=44 kg

The average weight of A, B, C, D and E=44*100/110=40 kg

The weight of D and E=40*5-44*3=68 kg


3) Answer: D

A = 9x

B = 7x

C = 9x *2/3 = 6x

7x – 6x = 21

x= 21 cm

A = 9 * 21 = 189 cm

B = 7 * 21 = 147 cm

Required average=(189 + 147)/2 = 336/2 = 168 cm


4) Answer: C

D = 60 kg

B = 60-12 = 48 kg

A = 48 + 8 = 56 kg

C = 60 + 12 = 72 kg

Required average=(60 + 48 + 72)/3 = 180/3 = 60 kg


5) Answer: D

Let the weight of B=14x kg

The weight of A=14x*5/7=10x kg

The weight of C=14x*125/100=17.5x kg

14x+10x+17.5x=83*3

41.5x=249

x=6

The weight of A=10*6=60 kg

The weight of B=14*6=84 kg

Required average=(60+84)/2=72 kg


6) Answer: D

Let the number of clerks in the company be x,

800*30 + 240*x = 300(30 + x)

24000 + 240x = 9000 + 300x

15000 = 60x

x = 15000/60 = 250

Total number of clerks in the company = 250

Shortcuts:

= > 3: 25

3’s = 30

1’s = 10

Total number of clerks in the company = 25’s = 250


7) Answer: C

Total runs = 324

First 3 Matches = 51 * 3 = 153

Last 4 Matches = 57 * 4 = 228

Run scored in the third match = 153 + 228 – 324 = 57 runs


8) Answer: D

Total weight of 20 girls=600 kg

Average weight of 20 girls=600/20=30 kg

Average weight of boys=30+10=40 kg

Total weight of boys=30*40=1200

Required average=(1200+600)/(30+20)=1800/50=36 kg


9) Answer: A

Boys = 1/3 * 15 = 5

Girls = 2/3 * 15 = 10

Total age of the class = 15 * 24 = 360 years

Total age of the boys = 5 * 16 = 80 years

Total age of the girls = 10 * x = 10x

360 = 80 + 10x

280 = 10x

x = 28 years


10) Answer: C

Arul + Tinu + Kavi + Divya = 68 * 4 = 272

Arul weight = 48 kg

Tinu weight = 5/6 * 48 = 40 kg

Kavi + Divya = 272 – 48 – 40 = 184

Average of Kavi and Divya = 184/2 = 92 kg
