Answers :

Directions (1-5) :

1) Answer: D

The share of P, Q and R,

= > [6x*4 + 6x*(125/100)*8]: [4x*12]: [5x*4 + 5x*(3/4)*8]

= > 84: 48: 50

= > 42 : 24 : 25

24’s= 24000

1’s = 1000

Total profit = 91’s = Rs. 91000

2) Answer: C

If the interest compounded annually,

32000*(5/100) = 1600

33600*(5/100) = 1680

C.I = 1600 + 1680 = 3280

If the interest compounded half yearly,

32000*(5/200) = 800

32800*(5/200) = 820

33620*(5/200) = 840.5

34460.5*(5/200) = 861.5125

C.I = 800 + 820 + 840.5 + 861.5125 = Rs. 3322.0125

Required difference = 3322 – 3280 = Rs. 42

3) Answer: A

The ratio of present age of A and B’s age 6 years ago = 2: 1

The present age of A and B = 2x, x + 6

C = B + 8

C = A – 7

B + 8 = A – 7

X + 6 + 8 = 2x – 7

X + 14 = 2x – 7

X = 21

Present age of B = x + 6 = 27 years

4) Answer: B

(P + Q + R)’s one day work = (1/9) + (1/12) + (1/15)

= > (20 + 15 + 12)/180

= > 47/180

(P + Q + R)’s 3 day work = (47/180)*3 = 47/60

Remaining work = 1-(47/60) = 13/60

(Q + R)’s one day work = (1/12) + (1/15) = (15 + 12)/(12*15) = 3/20

Q and R can complete the work in 20/3 days

The remaining work will be completed by Q and R in,

= > (13/60)*(20/3) = 13/9 = 1 4/9 days

5) Answer: D

Area of equilateral triangle = (√3/4)*a2

= > (√3/4)*8*8

= > 16√3 Sq m

Directions (6-10) :
