Answers :

1) Answer: c)

The share of A, B and C,

= > [45000*5 + 30000*7] : [32000*5 + 40000*7] : [28000*8 + 28000*(125/100)*4]

= > 435000 : 440000 : 364000

= > 435 : 440 : 364

440’s = 44000

1’s = 100

Total profit = 1239’s = Rs. 123900

2) Answer: a)

(A + B + C)’s one hour work = (1/10)

(A + B + C)’s two hour work = (2/10) = 1/5

Remaining = 4/5

(4/5)*(A + B)’s whole work = 12

(A + B)’s whole work = 12*(5/4) = 15 hours

C’s one hour work = (1/10) – (1/15) = (15 – 10)/(15*10)

= > (1/30)

C alone can complete the tank in 30 hours

3) Answer: c)

Speed of downstream = 15*(60/18) = 50 km/hr

The ratio of the speed of the boat in still water to the speed of the stream

= > 4 : 1 (4x, x)

5x = 50

X = 10

Speed of upstream = 4x – x = 3x = 30 km/hr

Distance = 10 km

Time = D/S = 10/30 = 1/3 hr = (1/3)*60 = 20 min

4) Answer: c)

If the interest compounded annually,

32000*(5/100) = 1600

33600*(5/100) = 1680

C.I = 1600 + 1680 = 3280

If the interest compounded half yearly,

32000*(5/200) = 800

32800*(5/200) = 820

33620*(5/200) = 840.5

34460.5*(5/200) = 861.5125

C.I = 800 + 820 + 840.5 + 861.5125 = Rs. 3322.0125

Required difference = 3322 – 3280 = Rs. 42

5) Answer: a)

The ratio of present age of A and B’s age 6 years ago = 2 : 1

The present age of A and B = 2x, x + 6

C = B + 8

C = A – 7

B + 8 = A – 7

X + 6 + 8 = 2x – 7

X + 14 = 2x – 7

X = 21

Present age of B = x + 6 = 27 years

Direction (6-10) :

6) Answer: d)

Total Quantity of Wheat sold by the shop A and C together

= > 5.5 + 3 = 8.5 quintal

Total quantity of Wheat sold by the shop B and D together

= > 8 + 4 = 12 quintal

Required % = (8.5/12)*100 = 70 %

7) Answer: a)

The total amount earned by shop B

= > (800*17)

The total amount earned by shop E

= > (600*16)

Required ratio = (800*17) : (600*16) = 17 : 12

8) Answer: c)

The total amount earned by shop D, E and F together

= > [(400*19) + (600*16) + (450*18)]

= > [7600 + 9600 + 8100]

= > 25300

9) Answer: b)

The total amount earned by shop B

= > 800*17 = 13600

The total amount earned by shop C

= > 300*21 = 6300

Required % = [(13600 – 6300)/6300]*100 = 115 %

10) Answer: d)

The total quantity of wheat sold by the shop A, B and E together

= > 5.5 + 8 + 6 = 19.5 quintal

The total quantity of wheat sold by the shop C, D and F together

= > 3 + 4 + 4.5 = 11.5 quintal

Required difference = 19.5 – 11.5 = 8 quintal
