Answers:

1). Answer: c

The speed of Praveen in return journey = x
6(x + 2) = 9x
=> 6x + 12 = 9x
=> 9x – 6x = 12
x = 4kmph

2). Answer: d

Initial number of persons = x
22x + 25 * 10 = 12(x + 25)
22x + 250 = 12x + 300
10x = 50
x = 5

3). Answer: b

Tax = 40/100 = (10/100)*T, T = 4
so cost of tax free items = 60 – 4 – 0.40 = 55.60

4). Answer: c

Let original price of toys be M
(80/100)*M = 4000, M = 5000
Now to gain 15% on the original price, the trader will sell the toys at (115/100)*5000 = 5750 rupees

5). Answer: e

(1/x)+(1/3x)=(1/12)

(3+1)/3x = 4/3x = 1/12

3x = 48

x=16 mins

Direction (6-10)

6). Answer: d

Company A = (30+45+25+50+40)/5 = 38

Company B = (25+35+35+40+50)/5 = 37

Company C = (35+40+45+35+35)/5 = 38

7). Answer: a

2006 = (35/25)*100 = 140%

2007 = (40/35)*100 = 114.29%

2008 = (45/35)*100 = 128.57%

2009 = (35/40)*100 = 87.5%

2010 = (35/50)*100 = 70%

In the year 2006 has maximum production of company C compared to the production of company B

8). Answer: c

Required percentage = [(40-25)/25]*100 = 60%

9). Answer: d

Required difference = [(45-25)*100000] = 20,00,000 tons

10). Answer: b

Production of Company C in 2006 = 35

Production of Company C in 2007 =40

Increase % = [(40-35)/35]*100 = 14.28%

Production of Company B in 2009 = 40

Production of Company B in 2010 = 50

Increase % = [(50-40)/40] = 25%

Required % = (14.28/25) * 100 = 57.12 %
