Answer Key with Explanation


1) Answer: B 3) Answer: B
SI = pnr/100 A box contains the coins of 10p, 50p and 1 rupee
Let the amount be x is in the ratio = 5: 4: 3 (5x, 4x, 3x)
Then, 44 = [(5x * 10)/100] + [(4x * 50)/100] + [(3x * 1)]
x * 12 * 2/100 + (5000 – x) * 11/100 * 3 = 1362 44 = (50x/100) + (200x/100) + 3x
24x + 165000 – 33x = 136200 44 = (x/2) + 2x + 3x
-9x = - 28800 88 = 11x
x = 3200 x=8
The total number of 50p coins = 4x = 32
2) Answer: E
Total cost price of 50 watches = 50 * 50 = 4) Answer: C
Rs.2500 4C2 / (x + 13)C 2 = 2/51
Total undamaged watches = 50 - 8 = 42 [(4 * 3) / (1 * 2)] / [(x + 13) (x + 12) / (1 * 2)] =
Total marked price of undamaged watches = 42 2/51
* 100 = Rs.4200 (51 * 6) = x2 + 13x + 12x + 156
Total selling price of undamaged watches = 306 = x2 + 25x + 156
4200 * {(100 - 25)/100} x2 + 25x – 150 = 0
Total selling price of undamaged watches = (x – 5) (x + 30) = 0
4200 * (75/100) = Rs.3150 x = 5, -30 (negative value will be eliminated)
Profit = Total selling price of 42 undamaged The total number of pink color balls = 8 balls
watches - Total cost price of 50 watches
Profit = 3150 - 2500 5) Answer: D
Profit = Rs. 650 Let F, M and S be the ages of Father, Mother
and Son respectively.

By data, F + M + S = 3*34 = 102 C = (3/2)*A = 1.5A


(S+4) = (M+4)/2 Profit share of A = (A*3.5) = 3.5A
2S + 8 = M+4 Profit share of B = 10*(A+300) = 10A + 3000
M = 2S + 4 Profit share of C = 6*1.5A = 9A
Applying in above equation, F + 2S + 4 + S = C’s share = (36/100)*Total share
102 9A = (36/100)*(3.5A + 10A + 3000 + 9A)
F + 3S = 98 ----(1) A = (1/25)*(22.5A + 3000)
Also, 25A = 22.5A + 3000
(F-10)/(S-10) = 17/4 2.5A = 3000
4F – 40 = 17S – 170 A = 1200
17S – 4F = 130 ----- (2) B = A + 300 = 1500
(1)* 4; 4F + 12S = 392
Adding both, 17S + 12S = 130 + 392 8) Answer: D
29S = 522 Let the distance travelled on foot be x km,
S = 18years Then distance travelled on bicycle= (69 - x) km
F = 98 – (3*18) = 44 (x/6)+ ((69 - x)/12) = 15/2
M = 40 [(2x + 69 – x )/12] = 15/2
At the time of son’s birth father’s age = 44-18 = x + 69 = 90
26 x = 21
Mother’s age = 40-18 = 22 The distance travelled on foot by the man = 21
Sum = 26 + 22 = 48 km

6) Answer: C 9) Answer: B
Let the monthly salary be x, 18 men can complete the work in (x - 6) days
Given, One man can complete the work in 18 * (x - 6)
x * (40/100) - x * (60/100) * (60/100) * (7/12) = days
7600 10 men can complete the same work in (y + 2)
(40x/100) - (21x/100) = 7600 days
19x = 7600 * 100 One man can complete the same work in 10 * (y
x = (7600 * 100) / 19 = Rs. 40000 + 2) days
Since, the work is same
7) Answer: C 18 * (x - 6) = 10 * (y + 2)
Let A be the amount invested by A. 9 * (x - 6) = 5 * (y + 2)
B = A + 300 9x - 54 = 5y + 10

9x - 5y = 64 (equation 1) (xa + 10)/3a = 5/3


Also, 20 women can complete the work in (x - 2) 3xa + 30 = 15a (equation 1)
days Also,
1 women can complete the work in 20 * (x - 2) (xa + 20)/3a = 7/4
days 4xa + 80 = 21a (equation 2)
16 women can complete the work in (y + 4) days Solving equation 1 and 2, we get
One woman can complete the work in 16 * (y + a =40
4) days Initial quantity of orange juice = 3a =3 * 40 = 120
Since, the work is same litres
20 * (x - 2) = 16 * (y + 4)
5 * (x - 2) = 4 * (y + 4) 12) Answer: E
5x - 10 = 4y + 16 Number of questions = 90
5x - 4y = 26 (equation 2) Average of marks = 80
Solving equation 1 and equation 2, we get Total marks of A and B = 2*80 = 160
x = 126/11 and y = 86/11 Average number of correct questions = 45
Therefore, Total number of correct questions = 2*45 = 90
x - y = (126/11) – (86/11) Let W be the total number of wrong questions
x - y = 40/11 For wrong questions = - 25% of 2 = -0.5
90*2 – 0.5*W = 160
10) Answer: A 0.5W = 180 – 160 = 20
LCM of 12, 15 and 30 = 60 W = 40
Total capacity = 60 litres Number of questions not attended = 180 – 90 –
A = 60/12 = 5 litres per hour 40 = 50
B = 60/15 = 4 litres per hour Average number of questions not attended =
C = 60/30 = 2 litres per hour 50/2 = 25
Let us take the total hours be x
5x + 4x + (x - 4) * 2 = 60 13) Answer: B
11x = 68 The ratio of speed of upstream to that of

Given,
11) Answer: C (140/2x) = 10 (30/60) + (140/5x)
Let the initial quantity of orange juice = 3a and (140/2x) - (140/5x) = 10 (1/2)
initial quantity of milk = xa 140 * [(1/2x) - (1/5x)] = 21/2
ATQ, 140 * (3x / 10x2) = 21/2

The speed of downstream = 5x = 20 km/hr Required choices = 6C 5 * 6C3 + 6C 6 * 6C2
The speed of upstream = 2x = 8 km/hr Required number of ways
The speed of boat in still water = (20 + 8) / 2 = = (6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 / (2 * 3 * 4 * 5)) * (6 * 5 * 4 / (3

Given,
2 * (15x + 8x) = 92 18) Answer: A
23x = 46 Loss = C.P – 3500
x=2 Profit = 5000 – CP
The length of the rectangle = 30 cm = The height Profit = (1/2)*Loss
of the cone 5000 – C.P = (1/2) * [C.P – 3500]
The volume of the cone = (1/3) * (22/7) * 14 * 14 10000 – 2C.P = C.P – 3500

C.P = Rs. 4500
15) Answer: E Marked price of bed = 4500 * (110/100) = Rs.
Let the speed of slower train is s and speed of 4950
faster train is f
Ratio of time = 28: 368 = 7: 92 19) Answer: C
Ratio of their relative speed, Let Rajesh salary = 100a
(f + s): (f - s) = 92: 7 Education fee = 30a
7f + 7s = 92f - 92s House rent = 20a
99s = 85f Remaining = 50a
s/f = 85/99 Loan = 50a * 20/100 = 10a
Required percentage = (99 – 85)/85 * 100 = 16% After the remaining = 100a - 50a – 10a = 40a
(Approx.) Savings = 40a * 20/100 = 8a
8a = 1600
