Answers :

1) Answer: A


2) Answer: A


3) Answer: C

2R → 150

1R = 75

OR

Let number of students who passed the exam = x

Now,

150 × 40 = 60x + 20(150 – x)

6000 = 60x + 3000 – 20x

3000 = 40x

x = 75


4) Answer: B

Let CP = 100x. then SP = 120x

New CP =140x

New SP = 120x – 24Rs

On solving

then, x = 3

CP = 100 × 3 = 300 Rs


5) Answer: C

CP of Chair = 3x

CP of table = 4x

CP of 5 chairs = 15x

SP of 5 chairs= 28x

Profit percentage = 13x/15x × 100

= 86.66


6) Answer: A
