Solution (36 40)

36: (5)Using statement I and II, we get that are can be coded as 3. 37: (5) Since, the maximum distance between any two points is 400, so their order can only be P, Q and R with Q at midpoint of P and R. So, using both statements, we can find the answer. 38: (3) Using statement I, we can say that M is North-West of T. Using statement II, we can say that M is North-West of T. 39: (5) Combining both, we get the order of their weights as A, E>C>B>D. 40: (2) Using statement II, we get M is the father of D.

52. (1) 53. (3) 54. (5) 55. (4) 56. (4) 57. (3) 58. (4) 59. (3) 60. (4) 61. (3) Let the first number be x. So, X+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4) = 170 x=32. So, product of first and last numbers = 3236 = 1152. 62. (3) Overall marks of Reena = 76+48+84+38+72 = 318 Overall total marks = 500.
So, overall percentage =

318 100 = 63.6% . 500

63. (5) By Work done = Men Time, we get that 612 = 8h or h = 9 hrs. 64. (1) Let the number be xy. So, by given condition, (10x+y)-(10y+x) = 18. Also, x+y=12. Solving these equations, we get x=7, y=5. So, the product of their digits is 35. 65. (1) Let the original price be x. So, x-25% of x = 1545. Solving, we get x=Rs. 2060. 66. (2) Since, there are 6 letters in word GROUND, total number of arrangements will be 6! = 720. 67. (3) Using I =

PRT P P R8 , we get or r=1.25% = 100 10 100

68. (5) Let their current ages be 4x and 5x. So, after 7 years, 4x+7 =31 or x=6. Therefore, Sureshs age 4 years ago = 5x-4 = 26 years. 69. (5) His final earnings = 4000

135 80 = 4320 . So, compared to Rs. 4000, he made a gain 100 100

of Rs. 320. 70. (4) Overall marks of Sahil = 45+47+49+45+32 = 218 Overall total marks = 250. So, overall percentage =

218 100 = 87.2% . 250

4 8 32 = = 2.66 days or 3 days (approx) 4 + 8 12

71. (2) Time taken to complete the work together =

72. (4) 73. (5) Time taken to reach the starting point together = LCM of individual time taken LCM of 40, 56, 35 is 280 sec. So, after 280 seconds, they will at starting point together.

74. (5) Let the shares of P, Q and R be 5x, 6x and 7x. Also, let the shares of S and T be y and y. So, by given condition, 5x+6x+7x = y+y or 18x=2y or y=9x. Also, S-P = 2100. Therefore, 9x-5x=2100 or x= 525. Therefore, Q = 6x=6525 = Rs. 3150. 75. (2) If 21a + 21b = 1134, then a+b = 1134/21 = 54. So, average of a and b = 54/2 = 27. Solutions (76-80): 76. (5) The differences between the numbers are 111, 112, 113, 114 and so on. 77. (1) The difference between the numbers is 22, 32, 42, 52, and so on. 78. (5) Each number is made by adding 2 to half of the previous number. Like 52 = 2+1002; 28 = 2+522, and so on. 79. (3) The difference between the numbers is 22, 42, 62, 82, and so on. 80. (3) 5=22+1; 12=52+2; 27=122+3; 58=272+4, and so on.
