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: a)
In a cycle of 3 hours, Pipes A, B and C are acting as inlet pipes for 2 hours each and they are acting as outlet pipes for an hour each.
LCM of 4, 6 and 8 = 24
Total = 24 units
A = 6 units per hour
B = 4 units per hour
C = 3 units per hour
Hence, Part of a tank filled in 3 hours (1 cycle) = 2 * (6 + 4 + 3) – (6 + 4 + 3)
= (6 + 4 + 3) = 13
Remaining = 24 – 13 = 11 units
4th hour = 11 – (6 + 3 – 4) = 11 – 5 = 6 units
5th hour pipes can fill 7 units
Thus, tank will be filled in 5th hour.
7) Answer: b)
Ratio of their investments = 40000: 30000: 50000 = 4: 3: 5 — (i)
So, senior executive gets 1/5 * Profit = 1/5 * 30000 = 6000 + his share
Remaining profit = 30000 – 6000 = 24000
Executive gets 1/10 * Remaining profit = 1/10 * 24000 = 2400 + his share
Remaining profit = 24000 – 2400 = 21600
From (i), Senior Executive’s share = 4/12 * 21600 + 6000 = Rs.13200
Executive’s share = 3/12 * 21600 + 2400 = Rs.7800(Minimum share)
Associate’s share = 5/12 * 21600 = Rs.9000
8) Answer: c)
Let the capital of Mira = 3. Then Capital of Meena = 2/3 times more than Mira
Capital of Meena = 2/3 * 3 + 3 = 5
From the given data, we get the below equation.
=> Mira’s capital (1 + r %)n = Meena’s capital + [Meena’s capital * n * R/100]
=> 3(1 + 40/100)2 = 5 + [5 * 2 * R/100]
=> 3 * 140/100 * 140/100 = 5 + 10R/100
=> R = 8.8%
9) Answer: c)
Let the number on the ball picked first = a, second = b, third = c.
The order of a, b and c can be (a>b>c)
Number of ways selecting the first number = 13 (Because we can’t select 0 and 1)
Number of ways selecting the second number = 13 (Because we can’t select 0)
Number of ways selecting the third number = 13 (Because we can’t select first and third number)
Required probability = (13 * 13 * 13)/153
= 2197/3375
10) Answer: a)
Let the number of boys be x and girls be y.
No. of races played between boys = xC2 = 10 = x(x – 1) = 20 => x = 5
Total number of boys participating in running race is 5.
No. of races played between girls = yC2 = 45 = y(y – 1) = 90 => y = 10
Total number of girls participatingin running race is 10.
Therefore, no of running races in which one player is boy and one is girl is,
= 5C1× 10C1= 5 * 10 = 50
