=6
Since,
16 + (2x + y) + 20 + 2x + 3y = 100 So, the number of 20 rupee notes left with D =
16 + 28 + 20 + 2x + 3y = 100 12 – 6 = 6
2x + 3y = 36 -----------(2)
So, from equations (1) and (2): 3) Answer: B
28 – y = 36 – 3y The average of the number of notes with A and
y=4 B=M= = 33
From equation (1): The average of the number of notes with C, D
2x + 4 = 28 and E = N = = 28
x = 12 From P:
Now, the total number of notes with B = Ratio of M to N = 33: 28
= 42 Since, (3x – 3): 5y = 33: 20
The total number of notes with D = So, P is not true.
= 36 From Q:
And the total number of notes with E = Average of M and N = = 30.5
= 18 So, Q is not true.
1) Answer: E From R:
The total number of notes with A = 24 M is more than N.
So, the number of 10 rupee notes with A = (2x + So, R is not true.
1)% of 24 = 25% of 24 = 6 Hence, none is true.
The total number of notes with B = 42

So, the number of 10 rupee notes with B = 4) Answer: A

Let the areas of fields A, B, C and D are 35x m2,
12.5x m2, 22.5x m2 and 30x m2 respectively.
Also let the length of field C is ‘y’ m. 5) Answer: B
Then , the breadth of field C becomes y-18m. If there is circular field of maximum area inside
Since, the perimeter of field C is 84 m. field A:
So, 2 * (y + y-18) = 84 The diameter of the circular field = The breadth
y = 30 of field A
y- 18= 12 The diameter of the circular field inside field A =
so, area of filed C = 30*12=360 14 m
22.5x= 360 And the radius of the circular field inside field A =
X=16 7m
Now, the area of field A = 35 * 16 = 560 m2 So, the area of the circular field inside field A =
The area of field B = 12.5 * 16 = 200 m2
The area of field C = 22.5 * 16 = 360 m2 If there is circular field of maximum area inside
And the area of field D = 30 * 16 = 480 m2 field C:
For field A: The diameter of the circular field = The breadth
Let the length of field A = ‘a’ m of field C
So, the breadth of field A = (a – 26) m The diameter of the circular field inside field C =
And, 12 m
a * (a – 26) = 560 And the radius of the circular field inside field C =
a2 – 26a – 560 = 0 6m
a2 – 40a + 14a – 560 = 0 So, the area of the circular field inside field C =
a(a – 40) + 14(a – 40) = 0
a = 40 Required difference =
Now, the length of field A = 40 m
And the breadth of field A = 40 – 26 = 14 m 6) Answer: A
Similarly, we can calculate for other fields as From the equation:
well: p2 – 37p + 286 = 0
p2 – 26p – 11p + 286 = 0
p(p – 26) – 11(p – 26) = 0

p = 26, 11 The breadth of field A is = 35% of its

Since, the average length of fields C, D and E = length.
26 m So, R is true.
So, the length of field E = (3 * 26) – (30 + 32) = Hence, all are true.
16 m
Since, the average breadth of fields C, D and E Direction (9-12):
= 11 m Let the number of students in college A, who
So, the breadth of field E = (3 * 11) – (12 + 15) = play only cricket = 10x
6m So, the number of students in college B, who
Since, the area of field E = 16 * 6 = 96 m2 play only cricket = 90% of 10x = 9x
And the area of field C = 360 m2 Let the number of students in college D, who
So, the required percentage = = play only cricket = 2y
26.67% So, the number of students in college C, who
play only cricket = 50% of 2y = y
7) Answer: C Since, the average number of students in each
The length of field B = 25 m college, who play only cricket, is 37.
The breadth of field B = 8 m So,
The height of the tent = 12 m 10x + 9x + y + 2y = 4 * 37
The total area for putting up tent: 19x + 3y = 148 ------------(1)
3 * (25 * 12) + 2 * (8 * 12) = 900 + 192 = 1092 m2 Since, the number of students in college B, who
So, the total cost of putting up tent in field B = play only cricket, is 12 more than those in
1092 * 125 = ₹ 136500 college C.
9x – y = 12
8) Answer: E y = 9x – 12 ------------(2)
From P: From equations (1) and (2):
Average length of fields A, B, C and D = 19x + 3(9x – 12) = 148
= 31.75 m 19x + 27x – 36 = 148
So, P is true. x=4
From Q: From equation (2):
Average breadth of fields A, B, C and D = y = 24
= 12.25 m The number of students in college A, who play
So, Q is true. only cricket = 10 * 4 = 40
From R:

The number of students in college B, who play Since, the number of students in college D, who
only cricket = 9 * 4 = 36 play only one game = 48 + 24 = 72
The number of students in college C, who play So, the total number of students in college D =
only cricket = 24 = 240
The number of students in college D, who play And the total number of girls in college D =
only cricket = 2 * 24 = 48 = 90
Since, the number of students in college D, who
play both the games = 32
So, the number of girls in college D, who play
both the games = = 12
Required percentage = = 13.33%
11) Answer: E
The number of students in college C, who play
9) Answer: C only cricket = 24
Since, the number of students in college A, who So, the number of students in college E, who
play only one game = 40 + 25 = 65 play only cricket = = 40
So, the total number of students in college A = The number of students in college C, who play
= 200 only football = 36
Since, the number of students in college A, who So, the number of students in college E, who
play both the games = 50 play only football = = 36
So, M = = 25% The number of students in college C, who play at
Since, the number of students in college B, who least one game = 24 + 36 + 18 = 78
play only one game = 36 + 18 = 54 So, the total number of students in college C =
So, the total number of students in college B = = 150
= 250 And the total number of students in college E =
Since, the number of students in college B, who = 160
play both the games = 54 Since, 55% of the total number of students in
So, N = = 21.6% college E play at least one game.
Required ratio = M: N = 25: 21.6 = 125: 108 So, the number of students in college E, who
play at least one game = 55% of 160 = 88
10) Answer: B And the number of students in college E, who
play both the games = 88 – 40 – 36 = 12

Since, the number of students in college C, who The difference between weights lifted by B in 1st
play both the games = 18 and 2nd attempts = 8% of (100a – 5) = (8a – 0.4)
So, the required average = = 15 kg
And the difference between weights lifted by C in
12) Answer: A 1st and 2nd attempts = 15% of 100a = 15a kg
From P: Since,
The ratio of total students in college A, to those 10a = 2x ----------(1)
in college C, who play cricket = (40 + 50): (24 + 8a – 0.4 = 3y ---------- (2)
18) = 90: 42 = 15: 7 And, 15a = 2(x + y) ---------- (3)
So, P is true. From equations (1), (2) and (3):
From Q:
Average number of students in colleges B, C
and D, who play only football:
45a = 30a + 16a – 0.8
a = 0.8
So, Q is not true. From equation (1):
From R: x=4
The number of students in college B, who play From equation (2):
both the games = 54 y=2
The number of students in college D, who play The difference between weights lifted by A in 1st
both the games = 32 and 2nd attempts = 2 * 4 = 8 kg
Required percentage = = 68.75% The difference between weights lifted by B in 1st
So, R is not true. and 2nd attempts = 3 * 2 = 6 kg
Hence, only P is true. The difference between weights lifted by C in 1st
and 2nd attempts = 2(4 + 2) = 12 kg
Direction (13-16): The difference between weights lifted by D in 1st
Let the weight lifted by A in 1st attempt = 100a kg and 2nd attempts = 2(4 * 2 + 1) = 18 kg
So, the weight lifted by B in 1st attempt = (100a –
5) kg
And the weight lifted by C in 1st attempt = 100a
kg
Now, the difference between weights lifted by A
in 1st and 2nd attempts = 10% of 100a = 10a kg

13) Answer: D The player, who won the championship, is C.

Total weight lifted by A in 1st and 2nd attempts So, the total weight lifted by C in all the 3
together = 80 + 88 = 168 kg attempts together = 268 kg
Total weight lifted by D in 1st and 2nd attempts The played, who came last in the championship,
together = 72 + 90 = 162 kg is D.
Required ratio = 168: 162 = 28: 27 So, the total weight lifted by D in all the 3
From P: attempts together = 243 kg
7x: 9(y + 1) = 28: 9(2 + 1) = 28: 27 Required difference = 268 – 243 = 25 kg
So, P can be the required ratio.
From Q: 15) Answer: D
4(x + y + 1): 5(x + 1) = 4(4 + 2 + 1): 5(4 + 1) = From P:
28: 25 Total weight lifted by B and C together in 1st
So, Q can’t be the required ratio. attempt = 75 + 80 = 155 kg
From R: Total weight lifted by B and C together in 2nd
9(x – y): (4x + 1) = 9(4 – 2): (4 * 4 + 1) = 18: 17 attempt = 81 + 92 = 173 kg
So, R can’t be the required ratio. Required difference = 173 – 155 = 18 kg
Hence, only P can be the required ratio. So, P is not true.
From Q:
14) Answer: E Ratio of the weight lifted by A in 2nd attempt to
that lifted by C in 2nd attempt = 88: 92 = 22: 23
So, Q is not true.
From R:
Average weight lifted by A, B and C in 2nd
attempt:

So, R is true.
Hence, only P and Q are not true.
From equations (1) and (2):
16) Answer: C
18 * (10000 + R2 + 200R) – 180000 = 3870R

180000 + 18R2 + 3600R – 180000 = 3870R
18R2 = 270R
R = 15
From equation (1):
X = 12000
From P:
The total weight lifted by all the 4 players The SI received on ₹ (x + 3000) at (R – 3)% rate
together in 1st attempt: after 2 years:
80 + 75 + 80 + 72 = 307 kg
The total weight lifted by all the 4 players
So, the values in P can be filled in the blanks in

the same order.
88 + 81 + 92 + 90 = 351 kg
From R:
The total weight lifted by all the 4 players
The SI received on ₹ (x + 3000) at (R + 1)% rate
together in 3rd attempt:
after 2 years:
90 + 90 + 96 + 81 = 357 kg
Required average = = 338 kg
So, the values in Q can be filled in the blanks in
the same order.
17) Answer: B
From R:
Since, the SI received on ₹ X ate R% rate after
The SI received on ₹ (x + 3000) at (R – 5)% rate
2 years is ₹ 3600.
after 2 years:
So,
So, the values in R can’t be filled in the blanks in

the same order.
Since, the CI received on ₹ X ate R% rate after Hence, the values in P and Q only can be filled

So,

18) Answer: C 19) Answer: B

Since, Let the CP of article A be ₹ 100x.
So, the CP of article B = ₹ (1200 – 100x)
The MP of article A = 112% of 100x = ₹ 112x
And,
The MP of article B = 120% of (1200 – 100x) =
₹ (1440 – 120x)
From equations (1) and (2):
The SP of article A = 95% of 112x = ₹ 106.4x
And the SP of article B = 85% of (1440 – 120x) =
The time, in which C alone can complete the ₹ (1224 – 102x)
work = 45 days The profit received on article A = 106.4x – 100x
The time, in which D alone can complete the = ₹ 6.4x
work = = 12 days The profit received on article B = (1224 – 102x) –
From P: (1200 – 100x) = ₹ (24 – 2x)
The ratio of B’s efficiency to E’s efficiency is 2: 3. So,
Since, the time, in which B alone can complete
the work can’t be determined. 2.8x = 24 – 2x
So, the time, in which E alone can complete the x=5
work can’t be determined. The total CP of both the articles together =
So, the time, in which D and E together can ₹ 1200
complete the work, can’t be determined. The total profit received on both the articles
From Q: together:
Since, the time, in which A alone can finish the 6.4 * 5 + (24 – 2 * 5) = 32 + 24 – 10 = 46
work, is 27 days less than the time, in which C So, the required profit per cent = =

So, the time, in which A alone can complete the
work = 45 – 27 = 18 days 20) Answer: E
From R: Let the original speed of boat in still water be ‘5x’
Since, we don’t know the time, in which B alone m/s.
can complete the work. So, the speed of stream = 20% of 5x = ‘x’ m/s
So, the time, in which B, C and D together can Since, the time taken by the boat to go 450 m
complete the work, can’t be determined. downstream is (6t + 1) seconds.
Hence, only Q can be determined. So,

The original speed of the boat in still water = 5 *

3 = 15 m/s
Since, the time taken by the boat to go 360 m
The speed of the stream = 3 m/s
upstream is (8t – 2) seconds.
If the speed of the boat in still water were 2 m/s
So,
more than its original speed in still water.
The new speed of the boat in still water would be
= 15 + 2 = 17 m/s
From equations (1) and (2): And the time taken by the boat to go 4.48 m
upstream would have been:
40t – 10 = 36t + 6
t=4 = 5 minutes 20 seconds
From equation (1): = (t + 1) minutes and 5t second
