Answers :

Directions (1-4):

Total number of students = 600

Number of students visited Bangalore = 30/100 * 600 = 180

Number of students visited Cochin = 20/100 * 600 = 120

Number of students visited Delhi = 160

Number of students visited Ajmer = 600 – (180 + 120 + 160) = 140

Number of boys visited Bangalore = 180 * 5/9 = 100

Number of girls visited Bangalore = 180 * 4/9 = 80

Number of girls visited Delhi = 90

Number of boys visited Delhi = 160 – 90 = 70

Number of Boys visited Cochin = 120 * 2/3 = 80

Number of girls visited Cochin = 120 * 1/3 = 40

Number of boys visited Ajmer = 100 – 30 = 70

Number of girls visited Ajmer = 140 – 70 = 70

1) Answer: D

Number of girls who visited Ajmer = 70

Number of boys who visited Delhi = 70

Ratio = 70: 70 = 1: 1

2) Answer: B

Number of girls who visited Cochin, Bangalore and Delhi = 40 + 80 + 90 = 210

Average number of girls who visited Cochin, Bangalore and Delhi = 210/3 = 70

3) Answer: A

The number of boys who visited Cochin = 80

Total number of students who visited Delhi = 160

Percentage = 80/160 * 100 = 50%

4) Answer: E

Number of boys who visited Bangalore =100

Number of girls who visited Cochin =40

Difference = 100 – 40 = 60

5) Answer: D

Initial quantity of milk in the mixture = 5/7 × 56 = 40 litres

Initial quantity of water in the mixture = 2/7 × 56 = 16 litres

40/(16 + x) = 2/1

2x = 8

x = 4 litres

6) Answer: C

245000 × 112/100 × x/100 = 315560

x = 115

Percentage increase = 15%

7) Answer: A

The average score of a cricketer in 7 innings = 41 × 7 = 287

(56 + 39 + m + 12 + n + 25 + 47)/7 = 41

(m + n) = 108

Average m & n = 54

8) Answer: B

Vino’s 1 day work = 1/18

Jino’s 1 day work = 1/24

Equation x/18 + (x + 3)/24 =1

x = 9 days

Whole work = 9 + 3 = 12 days

9) Answer: E

m/(m-6) = 5/3

m = 15

F = 4m

F = 4 * 15

Father’s age = 60

10) Answer: C

The total work completed by,

A = 33.33% total work = 6

Then, 100% total work = 6 * 3 = 18 days

B = 25% of total work = 6

Then, 100% total work = 6 * 4 = 24 days

The work done by A and B

A + B = 1/18 + 1/24 = (4 + 3)/72 = 7/72

A and B can complete the work in 72/7 = 10 (2/7) days
