Answers:

1) Answer: D

Difference for 4 years = 480 + 960 + 1440 + 96 + 288 + 19.2

= 3283.2

 

2) Answer: B

Profit of A in year 2013 = 20000

Profit of B in year 2016 = 50000

Required ratio = 2 : 5

 

3) Answer: A

Profit of A in year 2012 = 50000

Profit of A in year 2013 = 20000

Profit of A in year 2014 = 25000

Profit of A in year 2015 = 40000

Profit of A in year 2016 = 75000

Average= 210000/5=42000

 

4) Answer: D

In 2012 profit percentage of B

30000/150000×100=20%

In 2013 profit percentage of B

=30000/220000×100=13.63%

In 2014 profit percentage of B

= 20000/300000×100=6.67%

In 2015 profit percentage of B

=25000/350000×100=7.14

In 2016 profit % of B

=50000/400000×100=12.5%

So option (d) is correct.

 

5) Answer: C

% increase in income in 2016 to 2015

=110000/490000×100=22.5%

So income in 2017=600000× 122.5/100
=735000

% increase in expenditure in 2016 to 2015

=75000/450000×100=16.7%

So Expenditure in 2017

=525000×116.7/100=612675

Profit%= (735000 –612675)/612675×100
=19.96% ~20

 

6) Answer: D

Volume of a cube = 1728 cm³

Side of a cube = 12 cm

Total surface = 6a²

= 6 × 144

= 864

 

7) Answer: B

Longest rod (diagonal) = 15√3

a√3  = 15√3

a = 15

volume (a³) = 3375

 

8) Answer: C

Let radius of sphere = 3x

Radius of hemisphere = x

Required ratio= ( 4/3 π(3x)3)/(2/3 πx3 )
=54 :1

 

9) Answer: C

 

10) Answer: B

DE = x (radius of upper part)

AB/AD=BC/DE

12/6=3/x

x= 3/2

Required ratio= ( 1/3 π×3/2×3/2×6)/(1/3 π×3×3×12–1/3×π×3/2×3/2×6)
= 1 :7
