Answers :

1) Answer: b)

Let the cost price be x,

According to question

104x – 94x = 160

10x = 160

Cost Price of the article = (160/10)*100 = Rs. 1600

Profit = 1760 – 1600 = Rs. 160

Profit % = (160/1600)*100 = 10 %

2) Answer: d)

According to the question,

(X/12) + (10/15) = 1

X/12 = 1 – (2/3)

X/12 = 1/3

X = 4 days

3) Answer: a)

The ratio of present age of A and B = 5: 7 (5x, 7x)

After 5 years, the ratio will be = 3: 4

(5x + 5) / (7x + 5) = ¾

20x + 20 = 21x + 15

X = 5

Present ages of A and B is 25 years and 35 years respectively

Required difference = 35 – 25 = 10 years

4) Answer: c)

The difference between CI and SI for three years is,

Diff = Sum*[r2 * (300 + r)]/1003

1240 = Sum*[102 * 310]/1003

1240 = Sum*[100*310]/[100*100*100]

Sum = (1240*100*100*100)/(100*310) = Rs. 40000

5) Answer: b)

The share of A, B and C,

= > [4x*1 + 4x*(50/100)*1] : [5x*1 + 5x*(130/100)*1] : [6x*2]

= > [4x + 2x] : [5x + (13x/2)] : [12x]

= > 6x : 23x/2 : 12x

= > 12 : 23 : 24

Total profit = Rs. 118000

The share of B = 118000*(23/59) = Rs. 46000

6) Answer: d)

Total number of T2 cars sold in city P, Q and S together

= > 132000*(22/100)*(2/5) + 132000*(18/100)*(1/2) + 132000*(24/100)*(4/11)

= > 11616 + 11880 + 11520 = 35016

Required average = 35016/3 = 11672

7) Answer: c)

Total number of T1 cars sold in City P

= > 132000*(22/100)*(3/5) = 17424

The total number of T2 cars sold in City T

= > 132000*(21/100)*(5/12) = 11550

Required % = [(17424 – 11550)/11550]*100 = 50.857 % = 51 % more

8) Answer: b)

In city P, T2 cars = 132000*(22/100)*(2/5) = 11616

In city Q, T2 cars = 132000*(18/100)*(1/2) = 11880

In city R, T2 cars = 132000*(15/100)*(5/9) = 11000

In city S, T2 cars = 132000*(24/100)*(4/11) = 11520

In city T, T2 cars = 132000*(21/100)*(5/12) = 11550

So, City Q sold highest number of T2 cars.

9) Answer: b)

The total number of T1 cars sold in City Q and S together

= > 132000*(18/100)*(1/2) + 132000*(24/100)*(7/11)

= > 11880 + 20160 = 32040

The total number of T1 cars sold in City R and T together

= > 132000*(15/100)*(4/9) + 132000*(21/100)*(7/12)

= > 8800 + 16170 = 24970

Required difference = 32040 – 24970 = 7070

10) Answer: c)

The total number of cars sold in City P, R and T together

= > (22 + 15 + 21)/100 = 58/100

The total number of cars sold in City Q, R and S together

= > (18 + 15 + 24)/100 = 57/100

Required ratio = 58/100: 57/100 = 58: 57
