Answers :
1) Directions (1-5) :
Answer: C
Reasoning:
Marks obtained = 36 * 1.6 – 6 * 0.4 = 57.6 – 2.4 = 55.2
Required percentage = (55.2/96) * 100 = 57.5% (fail)
Maths:
Marks obtained = 36 * 1.2 – 4 * 0.3 = 42
Required percentage = (42/60) * 100 = 70%
English:
Marks obtained = 24 * 1 – 6 * 0.2 = 22.8
Required percentage = (22.8/35) * 100 = 65.142%
Computer:
Marks obtained = 32 * 0.4 – 4 * 0.1 = 12.4
Required percentage = (12.4/16) * 100 = 77.5%
Current Affairs:
Marks obtained = 32 * 0.8 – 8 * 0.25 = 23.6
Required percentage = (23.6/40) * 100 = 59% (fail)
2) Answer: B
Total number of incorrect answers given = (42 – 36) + (40 – 36) + (30 – 24) + (36 – 32) + (40 – 32)
= 28
Total number of question attempted = 42 + 40 + 30 + 36 + 40 = 188
Required percentage = (28/188) * 100 = 15% (approx)
3) Answer: A
Quantity 1:
Marks obtained in English = 24 * 1 – 6 * 0.2 = 22.8
Marks obtained in Computer = 32 * 0.4 – 4 * 0.1 = 12.4
Required Average = (22.8 + 12.4)/2 = 35.2/2 = 17.6
Quantity 2:
Marks obtained in Maths = 36 * 1.2 – 4 * 0.3 = 42
Marks obtained in Current Affairs = 32 * 0.8 – 8 * 0.25 = 23.6
One-fourth of sum of marks obtained in Maths and Current Affairs = (42 + 23.6)/4 = 16.4
Hence, quantity I > quantity II
4) Answer: D
Number of incorrect answers given = Number of attempted questions – Number of correct answers given
Number of incorrect answers given = 42 – 36 = 6
Marks obtained = 36 * 1.6 – 6 * 0.4 = 57.6 – 2.4 = 55.2
Required percentage = (55.2/96) * 100 = 57.5%
5) Answer: B
Reasoning = (6 * 0.4/36 * 1.6) = 1/24
Maths = (4 * 0.3/36 * 1.2) = 1/36 (Least)
English = (6 * 0.2/24 * 1) = 1/20
Computer = (4 * 0.1/32 * 0.4) = 1/32
Current Affairs = (8 *.25/32 * 0.8) = 5/64
Directions (6-10) :
6) Answer: A
Let F is the first part.
Then,
=> (F × (0.06) × 6) / (38800 – F) × 0.0.5 × 2 = 5/4
=>1.44F = 19400 – 0.5F
=> F = 19400/1.94 = 10000.
Thus, the second part = 38800 – 10000 = 28800
7) Answer: E
Option (a):
The total amount at the end of 1 year,
=> 0.97 × 1.1 × 5 + 1.15 × 3 × 0.95 + 2 × 1.09 × 0.98 = Rs. 10.7489 crore.
Option (b):
The total amount at the end of 1 year,
=> 1.15 × 0.95 × 5 + 1.09 × 0.98 × 5 = Rs. 10.8035 crore.
Option (c):
The total amount at the end of 1 year,
=> 0.33 × 10 × (1.15 × 0.95 + 1.1 × 0.97 + 1.09 × 0.98) = Rs. 10.759 crore.
Option (d):
The total amount at the end of 1 year,
=> 10 × 1.09 × 0.98 = Rs. 10.682 crore.
Option (e):
The total amount at the end of 1 year,
=> 10 × 1.15 × 0.95 = Rs. 10.925 crore.
Hence, option (e) is the correct answer.
8) Answer: B
The share of A, B and C,
= > [x * 6 + (x – 2000) * 6] : [(x + 8000) * 8 + (x + 13000) * 4] : [(x + 18000) * 12] = 33 : 65 : 90
= > [6x + 6x – 12000] : [8x + 64000 + 4x + 52000] : [12x + 216000] = 33 : 65 : 90
= > [12x – 12000] : [12x + 116000] : [12x + 216000] = 33 : 65 : 90
According to the question,
(12x – 12000) / (12x + 116000) = 33/65
260x – 260000 = 132x + 1276000
128x = 1536000
x = 12000
9)Â Answer: D
P + [(P * 5 * 12) / 100] = 48000
(160P / 100) = 48000
P = (48000 * 100) / 160 = Rs. 30000
SI for 2 years = (30000 * 12 * 2) / 100 = Rs. 7200
CI for 2 years = 7200 – 900 = Rs. 6300
Total amount = 30000 + 6300 = Rs. 36300
Given,
36300 = 30000 * (1 + x/100)2
(36300 / 30000) = [(100 + x) / 100]2
121 / 100 = [(100 + x) / 100]2
11/10 = (100 + x) / 100
110 = 100 + x
x = 110 – 100 = 10
The value of x = 10 %
10) Answer: B
Given that length of the rectangle = 40 cm and breadth of the rectangle=30cm
Now, new length after cutting = 40 – 20 = 20 cm
And new breadth of the rectangle after cutting = 30 – 20 = 10
And Height of the box =10 cm
Thus required volume of the box = 20*10*10 =2000 cm3
