Answers :

Direction – 1 – 5

CI = P * (1 + R/100)n – P

CI = 5000 * (1 + 10/100)2 – 5000

= 1050

SI = 12000 * 15 * 5/100 = 9000

Total interest amount(S) = 9000 + 1050 = Rs.10050

Rahul – 5 = 2(Ram – 5)

Rahul – 2Ram + 5 = 0 —– (1)

Rahul – Ram = 20 —— (2)

(1) – (2)

-Ram = -25

Ram = 25

Rahul = 45

Sum (T) = 45 + 25 = 70

Profit ratio of Rahul and Ram = (4800 * 6 + 6000 * 6): 6000 * 12

= 648: 720

= 9: 10

Ram profit share (U) = 10/19 * 3800 = Rs.2000

CP of laptop = V

2000 – V = 2(V – 350)

2000 – V = 2V – 700

3V = Rs.2700

= > V = Rs.900

Amount (W) = 2000 * (1 + 5/100) * (1 + 5/100)

= 2000 * 21/20 * 21/20

= Rs.2205

1) Answer: C

CI = P * (1 + R/100)n – P

CI = 5000 * (1 + 10/100)2 – 5000

= 1050

SI = 12000 * 15 * 5/100 = 9000

Total interest amount(S) = 9000 + 1050 = Rs.10050

2) Answer: B

Rahul – 5 = 2(Ram – 5)

Rahul – 2Ram + 5 = 0 —–(1)

Rahul – Ram = 20 ——(2)

(1) – (2)

-Ram = -25

Ram = 25

Rahul = 45

Sum(T) = 45 + 25 = 70

3) Answer: D

Profit ratio of Rahul and Ram

= (4800 * 6 + 6000 * 6): 6000 * 12

= 648: 720

= 9: 10

Ram profit share (U) = 10/19 * 3800 = Rs.2000

4) Answer: A

CP of laptop = V

2000 – V = 2(V – 350)

2000 – V = 2V – 700

3V = Rs.2700

= > V = Rs.900

5) Answer: D

Amount (W) = 2000 * (1 + 5/100) * (1 + 5/100)

= 2000 * 21/20 * 21/20

= Rs.2205

Directions (6-10) :

6) Answer: B

Speed of car A = 2x

Speed of car B = x

Time take to meet = 480/(2x + x) = 160/x

After meet car A reached Delhi takes 240 minutes,

480/2x = (160/x) + (240/60)

240/x – 160/x = 4

80/x = 4

x = 20

Time taken by meet = 160/20 = 8 hours

Time = 8 am + 8 = 4 pm

7) Answer: D

A + B + C + D = 1/10

A: B = 5: 4

A: C = 5: 3

Efficiency ratio of A, B and C = 5: 4: 3

Required percentage = 3/5 * 100 = 60%

8) Answer: C

Simple interest = P * N * R/100

2x * 2 * 12/100 + 3x * 15 * 2/100 = 5520

138x = 552000

x = 4000

Rahul total investment = 5 * 4000 = 20000

Compound interest = P * (1 + R/100)n – P

CI = 20000 * (1 + 10/100)2 – 20000

= 4200

9) Answer: D

Cost price of pencil = x

Cost price of pen = x * 150/100 = 3x/2

Marked price of Pen = 120/100 * 3x/2 = 9x/5

Marked price of pencil = 150/100 * x = 3x/2

9x/5 * 110/100 = 4950

990x = 4950 * 500

x = 2500

Cost price of pen = 3 * 2500/2 = 3750

Marked price of Pencil = 3/2 * 2500 = 3750

Mark up amount on pen = 9x/5 – 3x/2

=750

Marked price of Pen = 9/5 * 2500 = 4500

Required difference = 4500 – 2500 = 2000

10) Answer: A

Total number of employees = x

Average age of the company = (60 * 3 + 56 * 2)/5 = 58.4 years

After decrease = 58.4 – 4 = 54.4 years

(58.4x – 70.4 – 58.4)/(x – 2) = 54.4

58.4x – 128.8 = 54.4x – 108.8

4x = 20

x = 5

Number of male employees = 3/5 * 5 = 3
