Answers :

Directions (1-5) :

1) Answer: D

11 + (22 + 2) = 17

17 + (32 + 3) = 29

29 + (42 + 4) = 49

49 + (52 + 5) = 79

79 + (62 + 6) = 121

The wrong number is 119

2) Answer: A

21 * 2 – 3 = 39

39 * 3 – 4 = 113

113 * 4 – 5 = 447

447 * 5 – 6 = 2229

2229 * 6 – 7= 13367

The wrong number is 450

3) Answer: D

(10 – 2) * 2 = 16

(16 – 2) * 3 = 42

(42 – 2) * 4 = 160

(160 – 2) * 5 = 790

(790 – 2) * 6 = 4728

The wrong number is 4730

4) Answer: D

90 * 1 – 10 = 80

80 * 2 – 15 = 145

145 * 3 – 20 = 415

415 * 4 – 25 = 1635

1635 * 5 – 30 = 8145

The wrong number is 8140

5) Answer: E

1 + 93 = 730

730 + 73 = 1073

1073 + 53 = 1198

1198 + 33 = 1225

1225 + 13 = 1226

The wrong number is 1240

Direction (06 – 10):

Total number of rotten fruits = x

Number of rotten Guava = 45

Number of rotten apple = x * 30/100 = 3x/10

Number of rotten Banana = 22/100 * x = 11x/50

Number of rotten Orange = 18/100 * x = 9x/50

Number of rotten Mango = x * 12/100 = 6x/50

3x/10 + 11x/50 + 9x/50 + 6x/50 + 45 = x

15x + 11x + 9x + 6x + 2250 = 50x

9x = 2250

x = 250

Number of rotten apple = 250 * 30/100 = 75

Number of rotten Banana = 22/100 * 250 = 55

Number of rotten Orange = 18/100 * 250 = 45

Number of rotten Mango = 250 * 12/100 = 30

Total number of good fruits = 650 – 250 = 400

Number of good apple = 400 * 18/100 = 72

Number of good Banana = 1/5 * 400 = 80

Number of good Mango = 30/100 * 400 = 120

Number of good Orange = 22/100 * 400 = 88

Number of good Guava = 400 – 72 – 80 – 120 – 88 = 40

6) Answer: D

Required percentage = 30/40 * 100 = 75%

7) Answer: D

One dozen Mango = 80 * 120/100 = Rs.96

Total dozen of mango = 120/12 = 10 dozen

Total revenue = 10 * 96 = Rs.960

8) Answer: A

Required ratio = (55 + 80):(45 + 40)

= 135:85

= 27:17

9) Answer: C

Difference = 400 – 250 = 150

10) Answer: A

Total cost of Good Apple = 72 * 10 = 720

Total cost of Good Orange = 88 * 8 = 704

Total cost of Good Guava = 40 * 5 = 200

Total revenue = 720 + 704 + 200 = 1624
