Answers :
1) Answer: c)
Let the speed of two trains be X and Y
Same direction,
72 = (200 + 200)/[(X – Y)*5/18]
72 = (400*18)/[(X – Y)*5]
X – Y = 20 —à (1)
Opposite direction
18 = (200 + 200)/[(X + Y)*5/18]
18 = (400*18)/[(X + Y)*5]
X + Y = 80 —Ã (2)
By solving the equation (1) and (2), we get,
Y= 30 km/hr, X= 50 km/hr
2) Answer: a)
The share of A, B and C
= > [5x*12]: [3x*3 + (3x + 5000)*9]: [7x*8 + (7x + 7500)*4]
= > 60x: (9x + 27x + 45000): (56x + 28x + 30000)
= > 60x: 36x + 45000: 84x + 30000
According to the question,
= > 60x + 36x + 45000 + 84x + 30000 = 345000
= > 180x + 75000 = 345000
= > 180x = 270000
= > x = 1500
The share of B = 36x + 45000 = (36*1500) + 45000 = Rs. 99000
3) Answer: b)
The speed of the truck = 150 % more than that of the speed of the bus
The ratio of speed of the truck to that of the speed of the bus
= > 250 : 100 = 5 : 2
The speed of the bus = 25 % less than that of speed of the car
The ratio of speed of the bus to that of speed of the car = 75: 100 = 3: 4
The ratio of speed of the truck, bus and car = 15: 6: 8
The ratio of time taken by the truck, bus and car to cover the certain distance
= > (1/15) : (1/6) : (1/8) = 8 : 20 : 15
15’s = 9 hours
1’s = 9/15 = 3/5 hours
The difference between the time taken by the truck and that of car to cover the same distance
= > (15 – 8)’s = 7’s = (3/5)*7 = 21/5 hours = 4 hours 12 mins
4) Answer: c)
Total mixture of milk and water = 108 liters
4’s = 108
1’s = 27
Total milk = 81 liters, water = 27 liters
According to the question,
81/(27 + x) = (27/14)
27 + x = 42
X = 15
15 liters of water should be added to the mixture.
5) Answer: d)
Let the marked price be x,
According to the question,
X*(65/100)*(80/100) – x*(48/100) = 420
(52x/100) – (48x/100) = 420
(52x – 48x)/100 = 420
4x = 42000
X = 10500
(120/100)*CP = 10500
CP = 10500*(100/120) = Rs. 8750
Direction (6-10) :
6) Answer: a)
The income of the company P in the year 2015 = Rs. 99 lakhs
Profit % = [(Income – Expenditure)/Expenditure]*100
32 = [(99 – E)/E]*100
132E = 9900
E = 9900/132 = 75 lakhs
The expenditure of the company P in the year 2015 = 75 lakhs
7) Answer: c)
The expenditure of the company P in the year 2012 = The expenditure of company Q in the year 2016 = 66 lakhs
The income of company P in the year 2012
= > 66*(128/100) = 84.48 lakhs
The income of company Q in the year 2015
= > 66*(135/100) = 89.1 lakhs
Required difference = 89.1 – 84.48 = 4.62 lakhs = Rs. 462000
8) Answer: d)
The expenditure of company Q in the year 2013 = 75 lakhs
The income of company Q in the year 2013
= > 75*(122/100) = 91.5 lakhs
The expenditure of company Q in the year 2015 = 95 lakhs
The income of company Q in the year 2015
= > 95*(135/100) = 128.25 lakhs
The expenditure of company Q in the year 2017 = 56 lakhs
The income of company Q in the year 2017
= > 56*(125/100) = 70 lakhs
Required sum = 91.5 + 128.25 + 70 = 289.75 lakhs
9) Answer: b)
Profit % = [(Income – Expenditure)/Expenditure]*100
The income of company Q in the year 2012 = The income of company P in the year 2016 = x
The expenditure of company Q in the year 2012
= > 36 = [(x – E1)/E1]*100
= > 136E1 = 100x
= > E1 = (100x/136)
The expenditure of company P in the year 2016
= > 26 = [(x – E2)/E2]*100
= >126E2 = 100x
= > E2 = 100x/126
Required ratio = [100x/136] : [100x/126] = 126 : 136 = 63 : 68
10) Answer: c)
The income of company P in the year 2013 = 120 lakhs
Expenditure*(125/100) = 120
Expenditure of company P in the year 2013 = 120*(100/125) = 96 lakhs
Income of P in the year 2017 = 80 * 130/100 = 104 lakhs
Required percentage = 96/104 *100 = 92%
