A shopkeeper increases price of
an item by 20% and then gives a
discount of 20% on new price.
What is the net impact ?
Let us assume that initial price is 100, new price is 120
now 20% discout is applied from 120
120 -24 = 96
thus we can see that there is a net impact of - 4%.
in short : 20% multiplied to 20% gives -4% ans.

20 persons came to a party and
each person shook hand with each
other person. How many
handshakes were there?
Start with small number to validate and
understand. Suppose there are 4 persons, first
will shake hand with 3, second will shake hand
with 2, third will shake hand with 1. we have :
3+2+1 = 6. thus we can say : N * (N -1) / 2= 6
similarly here : (20 * (20-1)/ 2 = 190 answer

Raju had to add two digits, but by mistake he
multiplied these two digits and got 56. He was again
asked to add these two digits, but this time he squared
up these numbers and found their difference, it was
15. what will you get if you find the correct answer ?
X* Y = 56
X^2 – Y^2 = 15
(x+Y) (X-Y) = 15
now try with options at this stage. Take factors of 56,
which are : 2*2*2*7
the factors could be : 4*14 or 8*7
so X = 8 and Y = 7, their difference is 1 and X +Y = 15,
so the correct answer is 15. answer

Mayank swims across a river a distance of 200
meters 12 minutes, but he can also swim with
the current in water same distance in 5
minutes. What is his speed in still water?
Formula = (Distance ) / (Time ) = speed
while going accross the river, the speed is : X-Y= a
( 200/12)= 16.66 , where X is Mayank's speed and Y =
water's speed
while with the water, the speed is X + Y = b (200/5) = 40
the speed of Mayank is average of 40 and 16.66 = 28.33
and the speed of water is (40-16.66)/2 = 11.66 m. Per
minute. answer

A,B,C speak one statement true and one false.
A says to B : “I am a thief.” 2. “You are a
Doctor.” B: “Yes, I am a doctor” “C is a
thief.” C adds : 1. “ I am a theif.” “B is a
Doctor.” Who is theif ?
Let us suppose A's 1st statemet is right, 2nd statement is wrong. Thus
B's 1st statement is false and 2nd right. C's 2nd statement is false, thus
1st is correct. Here there are two theifs – A and C.
If we assume A's 2nd statement to be correct, then A is not a theif,
and no one is a theif.
Thus either no one is theif or A+C both are theives. Logically , NO
ONE is theif here.

A had to buy some nuts. He buys half the nuts
required. He takes them and his son steals half of
these. Out of remaining, his daughter steals half. Now
when A is fired by his boss that he had brought
exactly 70 less than what was required. What is the
ratio of nuts brought and to be brought?
Suppose he buys 24 nuts instead of 48. his son
takes away 12 and his daughter takes away 6
out of the remaining. He finally has 42 less
than required. Thus original requirements :
70/42* 48 = 80
thus ratio is : 1:8 answer (you may assume any
numbers but answer will be same).

Ram and Shyam had equal money, which they
deposited in two different banks. One got 10% simple
interest, but the other got 5% half yearly
compounding interest. At the end of 2 years, their
amounts had difference of Rs. 10, what was the
original amount deposited by them?
Let us suppose they deposited 100 each. First
person will get : 100+10+10 = 120
2nd person will get : 100 + 5 + 5.25 + 5.5125 +
5.79 or 5.80 = 121.56
the difference is 1.56, if difference is 10, the
principal should be : 10/1.56* 100 = 600 by
each approx.

A shopkeeper uses weight of 900 grams
instead of 1000 grams (1kg) while selling.
He sells at his cost + 10%, what is his
actual profit in %?
He sells 900 grams when he is charging for
1000 grams. Suppose he purchased 900 for Rs.
900. His cost is 900, but he is charging for
1000 + 10% = 1100
his profit is 200 on 900, or 200/900 *1000 =
22.2% answer

inserted inside a squre. How much of the
area of square is still left out of total area
in %?
Let us suppose that the side of square is 14.
area of square is 14*14 = 196
area of circle : 22/7*7*7 = 154
area left : 196-154 = 42
in % = 42/196 *100 = 21% approx. Answer
you can assume any value instead of 14 and try
to work out the %, the answer will be the same.
