a) 100 %

b) 120 %

c) 110 %

d) 150 %

e) 140 %

Answers:

1) Answer: b)

The ratio of present ages of P and Q = 1 : 3 (x, 3x)

P = 3R

R = x/3

P + Q + R = 65

X + 3x + (x/3) = 65

13x/3 = 65

13x = 65*3

X = 15

Present age of Q = 3x = 45 years

2) Answer: c)

Let us take the investment of scheme A be x,

Investment of B = 25000 – x

(X*3*6)/100 + ((25000 – x)*2*6)/100 = 3900

18x + 300000 – 12x = 390000

6x = 390000 – 300000

X = 15000

Investment of Scheme A = x = Rs. 15000

3) Answer: b)

Total probability n(S) = 15C4 = (15*14*13*12) / (1*2*3*4)

Required probability n(E) = 6C1 and 3C1 and 4C1 and 2C1

P(E) = n(E)/n(S)

P(E) = (6C1 and 3C1 and 4C1 and 2C1) / 15C4

P(E) = 1 / 91

4) Answer: a)

The share of Arun, Rithvic and Karuna

= > [24000*5 + 24000*(120/100)*7] : [36000*8 + 30000*4] : [42000*12]

= > 321600 : 408000 : 504000

= > 67 : 85 : 105

105’s = 47250

1’s = 450

Total profit = 257’s = Rs. 115650

5) Answer: d)

Let the radius of cylinder A be 3x and that of cylinder B be 4x,

Height of cylinder A = 5y and Height of cylinder B = 3y

Volume of cylinder A = πr2h

= > (22/7) * (3x)2 * 5y = (22/7) * 9x2 * 5y

Volume of cylinder B = πr2h

= > (22/7) * (4x)2 * 3y = (22/7) * 16x2 * 3y

Required ratio = [(22/7) * 9x2 * 5y] : (22/7) * 16x2 * 3y] = 15 : 16

Directions (6-10):

6) Answer: c)

The average number of students in college P, Q and S together

= > (15 + 24 + 12) * (5000 /100) * (1/3)

= > 850

7) Answer: b)

The total number of students in college Q and R together

= > (24 + 20)*(5000/100)

The total number of students in college S and U together

= > (12 + 11)*(5000/100)

Required difference = (5000/100)*(44 – 23)

= > 50*21 = 1050

8) Answer: a)

The total number of students didn’t go to any symposium from both the colleges together

= > (12/100)*5000*(85/100) + (18/100)*5000*(80/100)

= > 510 + 720 = 1230

9) Answer: d)

The ratio of male and female students in College R = 3 : 2

The ratio of male and female students in College T = 1 : 2

Total number of male in college R and T together

= > (20/100) * 5000 * (3/5) + (18/100) * 5000 * (1/3)

= > 600 + 300 = 900

Total number of female in college R and T together

= > (20/100)*5000*(2/5) + (18/100)*5000*(2/3)

= > 400 + 600 = 1000

Required difference = 1000 – 900 = 100

10) Answer: b)

Required % = (24/20)*100 = 120 %
