Hints & Solutions

1. Solution (3) 6. Solution (2)
Let income = 100x Let total number of balls in box = 100x
Hence he saves 25% of his income. No of red balls = 20x
Then he saves 25x rs. No of green balls = 25x
According to question he save 425 Rs Hence total no of red and green balls = 45x
Now, Now
25x = 425 45x = 135
x=3
2. Solution (4) Now total number of balls = 100x = 100 × 3 = 300
Here, Given that A is three times more than Q
Let Q = x 7. Solution (3)
Then, P = 4x Here, 1.5 kg = 1500g
Now, Now,
Q is 4x - x = 3x less than P 40
= × 100
Now, 1500
= 3x/4x × 100 = 75% 40 8
= =
15 3
3. Solution (1) = 2.6%
Given,
14.28% of 35/2 = x of 20% 8. Solution (3)
Here, Here,
14.28% = 1/7 20% of a = 25% of b
Then 20% × a = 25% × b
1 35 20 20a = 25b
× =x ×
7 2 100 a 5
=
5/2= x × 1/5 b 4
x = 25/2 Hence, a = 5k
x = 12.5 b = 4k
Now,
4. Solution (3) a + 2b 5k + 2 × 4k
Firstly we find =
2a − b 2 × 5k − 4k
One fourth of 800 13k 13
= ¼ × 800 = 200 = =
6k 6
200
Hence, × 100 = 40%
500 9. Solution (3)
Here, 1 day = 24 × 60 mins
5. Solution (4) 40
Let Ram’s Income = 100x Now, = × 100
24 × 60
Now on increasing 20% Ram’s income it becomes 1
= 120x = × 100
6×6
Now, According to Question
= 2.7%
120x = 14400
X = 120
Now
Ram’s initial income = 120 × 100 = 12000
 4

10. Solution (3) According to Questions

Let total no of votes = 100x 30x = 9600
Now Rajesh got = 65x x = 320
Hence second person got = 100x – 65x = 35x hence,
Now Rajesh won = 65x – 35x = 30x Total votes = 320 × 100 = 32000
