Answers:

Directions (1-5):

Hospital A:

Total number of people who visited Hospital A = 1800

Percentage of people having Hypermetropia defect (Hospital A) = 15%

Percentage of people with no defect (Hospital A) = 15% * (5/3) = 25%

Percentage of people having Myopia or Presbyopia (Hospital A)

= 100% – (15% + 25%) = 100% – 40% = 60%

Percentage of people having Myopia defect (Hospital A) = 60% * {9/(9 + 6)}

= 60% * (9/15) = 36%

Percentage of people having Presbyopia defect (Hospital A) = 60% * {6/(9 + 6)}

= 60% * 6/15 = 24%

Similarly calculate the percentage of all the hospitals.

Note: Total number of people who visited the hospital = People having Hypermetropia + People having No defect + People having Myopia + People having Presbyopia

1) Answer: b)

Number of people having Myopia (Hospital A) = 36% of 1800 = 648

2) Answer: a)

Number of people having Presbyopia (Hospital C) = 20% of 1200 = 240

Number of people having no defect (Hospital D) = 30% of 1600 = 480

Required ratio = 240: 480 = 1: 2

3) Answer: d)

Number of people how visited Hospital A and have no eye defect

= 25% of 1800 = 450

Number of people how visited Hospital B and have no eye defect

= 30% of 1500 = 450

Number of people how visited Hospital C and have no eye defect

= 30% of 1200 = 360

Number of people how visited Hospital D and have no eye defect

= 30% of 1600 = 480

Number of people how visited Hospital E and have no eye defect

= 33% of 1000 = 330

Therefore, the total number of people who visited all five Hospitals and have no eye defect

 = (450 + 450 + 360 + 480 + 330)

= 2070

4) Answer: c)

Required difference = 1000 * (28% – 21%)

= 1000 * 7/100 = 70

5) Answer: d)

Number of people how visited Hospital A and have Hypermetropia = 15% of 1800

= 270

Number of people how visited Hospital B and have Hypermetropia= 20% of 1500

= 300

Number of people how visited Hospital C and have Hypermetropia= 25% of 1200

= 300

Number of people how visited Hospital D and have Hypermetropia= 22% of 1600

= 352

Number of people how visited Hospital E and have Hypermetropia = 18% of 1000

= 180

Therefore, the total number of people who visited all five Hospitals and have Hypermetropia

 = 270 + 300 + 300 + 352 + 180

= 1402

Total number of people who visited all five hospitals

= 1800 + 1500 + 1200 + 1600 + 1000 = 7100

Required percentage = (1402/7100) * 100 = 20% (Approx.)

Directions (6-10):

6) Answer: c)

Sathish, Simon and Raja completed a work together in 24 days

Ratio of the shares of Sathish, Simon and Raja= 1/2: 1/3: (1 – ½ – 1/3)

= 3: 2: 1

Work done by Sathish, Simon and Raja in one day is 3T, 2T and T, respectively.

=> 3T + 2T + T = 1/24

=> T = 1/144

Work done by Sathish in one day = 3T = 1/48

Work done by Raja in one day = T = 1/144

Let us suppose that when Sathish and Raja work together, they take n days to finish the work.

N/48 + N/144 = 1

=> N = 36 days

When Sathish and Raja work together, they take 36 days to finish the work.

7) Answer: a)

Let the manufacturing cost = 100 and manufacturer profit = x

Marked price of the doll= 145% of 100 = 145

The retailer gives 20% discount on marked price, Buyer Price = 80% of 145 = 116

Manufacturer makes x rupees profit, and then retailer makes 10% profit.

Hence, 110% of (100 + x) = 116

⇒ 110 (100 + x) = 11600

⇒ 11000 + 110x = 11600

⇒ x = 5.45%. Hence, Manufacturer profit = 5.45% ≈ 5%

8) Answer: a)

Let t = time at which the two cars met each other.

If the car starting from Madurai have travelled for time “t” hr, then the car starting from Trichy will have travelled for [t + (10/60)]hr.

Hence we get, (10 * t) + 15 * [t + (10/60)] = 150

=> 10 * t + 15 * t + 15 * 10/60 = 150

=> t = 59/10 hr.

Distance from Madurai when the two cars will met= 10 * 59/10 = 59km

Distance from Trichy when the two cars met = 150km – 59km = 91km

9) Answer: b)

Let the speed of first train be ‘a’ m/sec and that of second train be ‘b’ m/sec.

Then, we get the below two equations,

10 = (200 + 200)/ (a + b)

=> a + b = 400/10

=> a + b = 40 —- (i)

30 = (200 + 250)/a

=> a = 15 —- (ii)

By substituting a = 15 in (i), we get b = 25

a = 15m/s, b = 25m/s

Required ratio = a: b = 15: 25 = 3: 5

10) Answer: d)

Selling price = 77% of highest sugar price = (77/100) * 75 = 57.75

Profit percent = 10%

SP/CP = 110/100; CP = 100 * 57.75/110 = Rs.52.5

Take first two quantities 45 and 75

Ratio of these two = (75 – 52.5)/(52.5 – 45) = 22.5/7.5 = 3/1 = 3: 1

Take second and third quantities,

Ratio of these two = (52.5 – 50)/(75 – 52.5) = 2.5/22.5 = 1/9 = 1: 9

These two mixtures cost 52.5 per kg. So when these two mixtures are mixed together in any ratio, we will get 52.5 rupees of mixture.

We will consider 1: 1 ratio of mixing Ratio = 3: 2: 9
