Answers :
Directions (1-5) :
1) Answer: a)
Compound Interest:
12000*(5/100) = 600
12600*(5/100) = 630
C.I = 1230
S.I = (5/6)*C.I = 1230*(5/6) = 1025
According to the question,
= > S.I = PNR/100
= > 1025 = (P*5*10)/100
= > P = (1025*100)/50
= > P = Rs. 2050
2) Answer: d)
The share of P, Q and R
= > [5*4 + 5*(80/100)*8] : [4*12] : [6*4 + 6*(1/2)*8]
= > 52 : 48 : 48
= > 13 : 12 : 12
The share of Q = Rs. 11400
12’s = 11400
1’s = 11400/12 = 950
Total profit = 37’s = Rs. 35150
3) Answer: b)
5 years ago, the ratio of ages of Sanjeev and Sumi = 2 : 3 (2x, 3x)
The present age of Sanjeev and sumi = 2x + 5, 3x + 5
Vasu = Sanjeev + 10
Vasu = Sumi – 15
Sanjeev + 10 = Sumi – 15
2x + 5 + 10 = 3x + 5 – 15
x = 25
The present age of Sanjeev = 2x + 5 = 55 years
The present age of Vasu = 55 + 10 = 65 years
4) Answer: a)
Let the number of men be x,
Work = men*days
Here work is equal. So,
25*x = (x + 10)*15
5x = 3x + 30
2x = 30
x = 15
Total number of men = 15 men
5) Answer: b)
Let the population 3 years ago be X,
X*(125/100)*(125/100)*(125/100) = 1500000
X = 1500000*(100/125)*(100/125)*(100/125)
X = 768000
Directions (6-10) :
6) Answer: c)
The total number of Tamil newspaper printed in Hindu
= > 32 % of total number of newspaper printed in Hindu
= > (32/100)*(24/100)*800000
= > 61440
Total number of newspaper printed in Dina malar
= > 800000*(16/100)
= > 128000
Required % = (61440/128000)*100 = 48 %
7) Answer: b)
The total number of Dina thanthi newspaper printed in July 2018
= > (18/100)*800000
The total number of Indian express newspaper printed in July 2018
= > (20/100)*800000
Required ratio = [(18/100)*800000] : [(20/100)*800000]
= > 9 : 10
(Or)
Required ratio = 18 % : 20 % = 9 : 10
8) Answer: d)
The total number of Indian Express printed in the month of August 2018
= > 800000*(20/100)*(125/100) = 200000
The total number of Times of India newspaper printed in the month of August 2018
= > 800000*(22/100)*(132/100) = 232320
Required difference = 232320 – 200000 = 32320
9) Answer: a)
Required % = (24/20)*100 = 120 %
10) Answer: c)
The ratio between the English to that of Tamil newspaper in Dina thanthi in July 2018 = 5:7
The ratio between the English to that of Tamil newspaper in Hindu in July 2018 = 5 : 3
The total number of Dina thanthi and Hindu English newspaper printed in July 2018
= > 800000*(18/100)*(5/12) + 800000*(24/100)*(5/8)
= > 60000 + 120000 = 180000
Required average = 180000 / 2 = 90000
