4 Ram bought a cycle and sold it for Rs 4550 which is 30 % more than this original price . What is the original price of the cycle
A 3500/- b 3800/- c 3600/= d 3400/-
Let cost price (C.P.) = 100.
Profit = 30 %. Selling price (S.P.) = (100 + 30) = 130. If selling price (S.P.) is 130, then cost price (C.P.) is 100. If selling price (S.P.) is 1, then cost price (C.P.) is $ (100/130). If selling price (S.P.) is 4550, then cost price (C.P.) is (100 /130 × 4550) = 3500Answer A 3500/- |
5 Rahim sales a cow at a loss of 15 % . if he has sold it for Rs 150 more than he would have made a profit of 10 % . Cost price of the cow was
A 660 b 600 c 575 d None of these
Let cost price be P Sold price =85 % of P 85/100*P+150=110/100*P 25/100*P =150 25P=15000 P=15000/25= 600

6 There are some parrots and some tigers in a forest . if the total number of animal heads in the forest are 858 and total number of animal legs are 1746 . What is the number of parrots in the forest
A 843 b 847 c 800 d None of these
Let the no of parrots is assumed as X
Total number of animals = 858
Total tigers = 858-x
Total legs = 2x=4(858-x)=1746
=2x+3432-4x=1746
2x=3432-1746=1686
X=1686/2=843
Answer a 843

7 LCM of 36 , 45,52, 108 and 236 is a
A 414180 b 480414 c 441180 d none of these
36 = 2*2*3*3*
45 = 3*3*5 52 = 2*2*13 108 = 2*2*3*3*3* 236 = 2*2*59 Therefore, L.C.M of 36, 45, 52, 108, 236 = 2*2*3*3*3*5*13*59 = 414180
Answer a 414180

8 Salaries of Akash , Babloo and chintu are in the ratio of 2:3:5 . If their salaries were increased by 15 % , 10 % and 20 % respectively
What will be the new ratio of their salaries
A 3:3:10 B 23:33:60 C 20:22:40 D None of these
Let Akash = 2 Babloo = 3 and Chintu = 5
Then 100/115=2 = 23/10
100/110=3 = 33/10
120/100=5= 6
Then new ratio is 23/10 :33/10: 6 = 23:33:60
Answer b 23:33:60

9 A man earns Rs 20 on the first day and spends Rs 15 on the next day . He again earns rs 20 on the third day and spends rs 15 on the fourth day . if he continues to save like how soon will have Rs 60 in hand
A on 30 the day b On 40th Day c On 27th Day D On 17th day
Explanation: Money earned in 2 days = Rs.(20 - 15)
= Rs. 15. Money earned in 16 days = Rs.(5/2 x 16) ‹=›Rs. 40. On 17th day, money in hand = Rs.(40 + 20 ) = Rs. 60.

10 Ajay can do a piece of work in 25 days and Sanjay can finish it in 20 days . They work together for 5 days and Ajay goes away . In how many days will Sanjay finish the remaining work
A 11 days b 12 days c 14 days d None of these
1 days work of Ajay =1/25 Sanjay = 1/20 So (Ajay+Sanjay)= 1/25+1/20=9/100 5 days work of Ajaya and Sajay=45/100 Remaining work = 1-45/100=55/100 Sajay can do 55/100 work in 55/100/1/20 = 11 Days
Answer a 11 Days

12 A hemispherical bowl of internal radius 9 cm contains a liquid , The liquid is to be filled into cylindrical shaped small bottles of diameter 3 cm and height 4 cm . How many bottles will be needed to empty the bowl
A 45 b 54 c 35 d 48
Radius of hemisphere= 9 cm
volume of hemisphere= 2/3 π r3
= 2/3 x9x9x9 π
= 486 π
radius of cylindrical shaped bottles= 3/2 cm
height= 4 cm
volume of bottles= π r2h
= 3/2x 3/2 x 4 π
=9 π
now,
Required no. of bottles= volume of hemisphere/ volume of bottles
. =486 π/9π
. =54
Hence, no. of bottles required to empty the bowl = 54
Answer b 54

13 If the numerator of a fraction is increased by 200 % and the denominator is increased by 300 % the resultant fraction is 6/11 . What was the original fraction .
A 5/11 b 7/11 . c 8/13 d 8/11
If numerator increase 200 % then Numerator will be x+2x =3x
and denominator increased by 300% means denominator will be y = 3y =4y new fraction will be 3x/4y =6/66 (g
3x/4y = 6/11
dividing numerator by 3 and denominator by 4 both side we will get x/y =6/3/11/4 x/y=6x4/11x3 x/y =24/33 x/y =8/11 Answer d 8/11 |
14 If the ratio of areas of two squares is 9:1 the ratio of perimeter is

A 40 b 45 c 50 d 55
Speed 36 KM/H = 36*5/18 M/S =10 M/S So time taken to cross 500m bridge = 500/10 = 50 Second Answer 50 |
19 Two cars start from the same point at 8 am . In the same direction . The speed of the first car is 60 km/h and the speed of second car is 55 km/h . The distance between them at 2 p. m on the same day is
A 20 km b 25 km c 28 km d 30 km
Time duration 14-8 = 6 Hrs 2 PM ( 14 hrs)
distance by first car 6*60 360 KM Distance by IInd car = 6*55 =330 KM So distance between two car 30 KM Answer 30 KM |
