Answers :
Direction (1-5) :
1) Answer: c)
Let the total distance travelled by D kms and the speed of the boat be S km/hr.
Then upstream speed= (S-3) km/hr
And downstream speed= (S+3) km/hr
(S-3)*20 = (S+3)* 12
20S-60 = 12S+36
8S = 96
S=12 km/hr
Thus speed of the boat= 12 km/hr
2) Answer: e)
Let the amount invested by Megala be Rs x.
Then Sruthi’s investment be 2x and Nandhini’s investment be 3x.
Thus ratio of investment by all of them in 2 years= x*24:2x*12:3x*6
= 24x: 24x: 18x
=4:4:3
Thus share of Nandhini= 3/11*330000
=Rs 90000
3) Answer: d)
If the cost price of 1 chair Rs x then CP of 1 table=Rs (x+320)
Thus 5x+3(x+320) = 4440
5x+3x+960= 4440
8x = 3480
x=435
Then CP of two tables and two chairs= 2(x+x+320)
= 4x+640
= 4*435+640
= Rs 2380
4) Answer: a)
Let the length of the train be x m.
Then length of the platform=3x m
Now time taken by the train to cross platform=(x+3x)/48
= 4x/48 seconds
And time taken by the train to cross the pole= x/48 seconds
Then, (4x/48)-(x/48)=40
3x/48=40
x=640 seconds
5) Answer: e)
Let the number of coins in the bag be x
Then, 0.5x+0.25x+0.2x+0.05x= 50
x= 50
Direction (6-10) :
6) Answer: c)
The number of people in the age group of 12- 18 years in the city P = 33000
22 % of total number of people in city P = 33000
(22/100)* Total number of people in city P = 33000
Total number of people in city P = 33000*(100/22) = 150000
The number of people in the age group of 34 – 60 years in city P
= > 23 % of total people
= > (23/100)*150000
= > 34500
7) Answer: b)
The number of people in the age group of above 60 years in city S = 45000
18 % of total number of people in city S = 45000
Total number of people in city S = 45000*(100/18) = 250000
The total number of people in the age group of 0 – 12 years in city S
= > 250000*(15/100) = 37500
The total number of people in the age group of 18 – 34 years in city S
= > 250000*(21/100) = 52500
Required % = (37500/52500)*100 = 71.42% = 71 %
8) Answer: d)
The number of people in the age group of 18 – 34 years of city R = 75000
25 % of total number of people in city R = 75000
Total number of people in city R = 75000*(100/25) = 300000
The number of people in the age group of 34 – 60 years in city R
= > 300000*(28/100) = 84000
The number of people in the age group of 18 – 34 years of city T = 34500
23 % of total number of people in city T = 34500
Total number of people in city T = 34500*(100/23) = 150000
The number of people in the age group of 0 – 12 years in city T
= > 150000*(20/100) = 30000
Required sum = 84000 + 30000 = 114000
9) Answer: a)
The number of people in the age group of 12 – 18 years in city Q = 43200
24 % of total number of people in city Q = 43200
Total number of people in city Q = 43200*(100/24) = 180000
The number of people in the age group of 12 – 18 years in city R = 54000
18 % of total number of people in city R = 54000
Total number of people in city R = 54000*(100/18) = 300000
Required ratio = 180000: 300000 = 18: 30 = 3: 5
10) Answer: c)
The total population of city P = 150000
The total population of city S = 250000
The total number of people in the age group of 18 – 34 years in city P
= > 150000*(28/100) = 42000
The total number of people in the age group of 12 – 18 years in city S
= > 250000*(19/100) = 47500
Required percentage = (47500-42000)/47500*100
=11.57 % = 12%
