Telugu Maths Science Social

A boat covers a distance of 40 kms in 8 hours downstream. To cover the same

A man lent Rs.3364 in two parts at 5% compound interest, compounded

Following Pie-chart shows the production of six Television manufacturing

Required number = 0.5

Required number = 374

Here the vertical difference is 23 11 = 12

Total marks = 92 + 63 + 54 + 108 + 73 + 54 = 444

Total marks = 33 + 129 + 83 = 245

Required ratio = 245 : 257

Total marks = 60 + 123 + 74 = 257

Total marks = 84 + 62 + 51 + 72 + 144 + 87 = 500

Required% = 100 = 16.8%

The CP of 56 pencils at the rate of 7 for Rs.9 is Rs.72

If the profit is Rs.5, the number of pencils is 56.

12. Let the cost price of the article be Rs.100

Selling Price = Rs.130 (30% profit)

if he buys 10% less, then C.P = Rs.90

Now the Selling Price = Rs.108 (20% profit)

13. Let the number of books be x

15. If 10% = 1210, then 100% value is

Total number of Televisions produced by B = 12100

Total number of televisions produced by all the companies is 110000

Total number of Televisions produced by F = 5100

if 17% value is 5100, then 14% value

Total number of televisions produced by D is 4200

Number of defective Televisions of D = 6% of 4200 = 252

17. If 100% = 160000, then 33% value is

Total number of Televisions produced by A = 52800

Number of defective Televisions of A = 9% of 52800 = 4752
