Answers :

1) Answer: a)

The average increases by 2 kg, so the weight is increased by (8×2) =16 kg. So the weight of the new person is (48+16) = 64 kg

2) Answer: b)

Required average = Old average – New average

= 42 – 10 = 32

3) Answer: c)

Let the present ages of mother and son be 3x and x respectively. Four years ago mother’s age and father’s age were (3x – 4) and (x – 4) respectively

(3x – 4) / (x – 4) = 4/1

x = 12 years;

3x = 36 years

At present, average age = 36 + 12 = 48/2 = 24

2 years hence it would be 24 + 2 =26

4) Answer: b)

Average salary = (5000×2 + 7000×3) / (3+2) = Rs.6200

5) Answer: d)

Permanent staff : temporary staff = 2 : 1

Permanent staff = 60

Temporary staff = 30

Total salary = 60 (salary of permanent staff + 30 x salary of temp. Staff)

90 × 15000 = 60k + 30 × I

Here k and l are unknowns. So answer cannot be determined.

6) Answer: a)

Since all the distances are same

Avg speed = 3uvw / (uv + vw + wu)

= (3 × 20 × 60 × 10)/ (1200 + 600 + 200)

=36000/2000 = 18km/hr

7) Answer: c)

Average speed = Total distance / time

= (200 + 300 + 500) / (200/40 + 300/20 + 500/10)

= 1000/70 =100/7 = 14 2/7 km/hr

8) Answer: c)

Average Present employee of first 3 days = 30

Total employee of first 3 days = 90

Average Present employees of last 4 days = 28

Total employees of last 4 d= 112

Sum of six days of employees = 27 × 6 = 162

No of employees on Wednesday = 162 – (90 + 112) = 162 – 112 = 40

9) Answer: d)

Sum of all their ages = 42 × 5 = 210 years

Sum of the first two = 55 × 2 = 110 years

Sum of the last two = 27.5 × 2 = 55 years

Middle sister age = 210 – (110 + 55) = 45 years

10) Answer: c)

Sum of first n even digits is n+1 = 75+1 =76
