1) Answer: C Required Ratio= 1631:704
Number of students present in college P = 65% Hence, the answer is option D
of (425 + 315) = 481
Number of students absent in college S = 37.5% 4) Answer: A
of (380 + 220) = 225 Total number of students present = 65% of (425
Required difference = 481 – 225 = 256 + 315) = 481
Hence, the answer is option C Ratio of boys to girls present = 6:7
So number of boys present = 6/13 x 481 = 222
2) Answer: C Number of boys absent = 425 – 222 = 203
Total number of students absent in college R= Hence, the answer is option A
25% of 420 = 105
Number of boys absent = 105 – 36 = 69 5) Answer: B
So, the number of boys present = 276 – 69 = 207 Required average = (0.65 x 740 + 0.8 x 575 +
Required % = 207/276 x 100 = 75% 0.75 x 420 + 0.625 x 600)/4 = 407.75
Hence, the answer is option C Hence, the answer is option B
3) Answer: D 6) Answer: A
Average number of students present in all the If Sarika gives 12 notes of Rs. 2 and 5 notes of
colleges together = (0.65 x 740 + 0.8 x 575 + Rs. 20 and 14 notes of Rs. 5 to Ansari, then the
0.75 x 420 + 0.625 x 600)/4 = 407.75 total amount with her becomes Rs. 2830
Average number of students absent in all the So initial amount with Sarika = 2830 + 12 x 2 + 5
colleges together = (0.35 x 740 + 0.2 x 575 + x 20 + 14 x 5 = 3024
0.25 x 420 + 0.375 x 600)/4 = 176 Now, 8a x 2 + 2a x 5 + 7a x 10 + 6a x 20 = 3024
9

216a = 3024 No two men or two women are adjacent to each

So, the value of a = 3024/216 = 14 other which means they are in an alternate
So, the number of Rs. 5 notes = 2a = 2 x 14 = 28 position.
Hence, the answer is option A So arrangement should be = BGBGBGBGBGB
7) Answer: D Required number of ways = 6! x 5!
Let the distance between P and Q is D km. Hence, the answer is option C
Now,
[(D/2) /15 + (D/2 + 20)/16 – D/30] = 5 10) Answer: B
D/2 + 20 = 80 CSE/ECE = 3/4
So value of D = 60 x 2 = 120 km EEE/Mech = 5/6
Total distance covered by the person = D + D + ECE/Mech = 2/3
20 = 120 + 120 + 20 = 260 km Required ratio = 12:16:20:24
Hence, the answer is option D = 3:4:5:6
8) Answer: A 11) Answer: E

Let the total capacity of the tank is LCM of (24, According to the question,
16, 20) = 240 units Z + Z + 3800 = 12600
Rate of filling of P1, P2 and P3 is (240/24 = 10), 2Z = 8800
(240/16 = 15) and (240/20 = 12) respectively. So, the money received by Z = 8800/2 = 4400
Let the rate of emptying of pipe P4 = a units/hour Money received by Y = 4400 + 3800 = 8200
In first three hours, amount of water filled = (10 + Interest received by Y = 8200 x (1.12² - 1) =
15 + 12) = 37 units 2086.08
In every 4th hour pipe P4 is opened alone, so the Interest received by Z = 4400 x (1.15² - 1) = 1419
amount of water filled in every 4 hours = (37 – a) Required difference = 2086.08 – 1419 = Rs. 667
Tank is filled in 26 hours 25 minutes, so Approx.
Now, 6 x (37 – a) + 10 + 15 + 5/12 x 12 = 240 Hence, the answer is option E
222 – 6a + 30 = 240
6a = 12 Explanation
So, the value of a = 2 units/hour (empty) Let the total number of students in the class is
Required time = [60% of 240]/2 = 72 minutes 100x
Hence, the answer is option A Then,

13) Answer: B
100x = 84x + 16x/3 + 16
Required % = 3/48 * 100 = 6.25%
100x – 268x/3 = 16
x = 1.5
14) Answer: C
Total number of student = 100 * 1.5 = 150
Required ratio = (24 + 8): 13 = 32: 13
