Explanation

1. Answer D

Solution
Let the areas of the two parts be x and (700-x) hectares respectively. Then,
[x - (700 - x)] =
2x - 700 = 70 x = 385.
So, area of smaller part = (700 - 385) hectares = 315 hectares.

2. Answer B
Solution

3l = 2l + 2b l = 2b

3.Answer C

Solution
100 years contain 5 odd days.
Last day of 1st century is Friday.
200 years contain (5 x 2)=3 odd days.
Last day of 2nd century is Wednesday.
300 years contain (5 x 3) = 15 =1 odd day.
Last day of 3rd century is Monday.
400 years contain 0 odd day.
Last day of 4th century is Sunday.
This cycle is repeated.
Last day of a century cannot be Tuesday or Thursday or Saturday.

4.Answer B
Solution
Each day of the week is repeated after 7 days
So,after 63 days,it will be Tuesday.
After 61 days,it will be Sunday.
5. Answer d:
d) At 15:15 both minute and hour hands will be in same position. Hence the angle
between them will be zero
degrees. However 360 degree also means both minute and hour hands are in same
position. Hence correct answers are
both zero and 360 degrees

x=
8. Answer D
Solution

x = 12.5

Angle tracked by the hour hand in 6 hours =

9. Answer b: Cost price per hat = 5/3
Selling price per hat = 10/4
Profit percentage = (S.P - C.P / C.P) x 100
Substituting the above SP and CP we get 50%.
11. Answer D

= 180

Solution
Since the 7, 11 and 13 all are the factors of such a number.
So (d) is the correct answer.
12. Answer B

Solution
Let there be w wide runs.
Byes = w + 8
Runs scored by batsmen = 26 w
Total run = 232
or w + w + 8 + 26W = 232
Run scored by Ram =
13. Answer A
Solution
The numbers are squares of odd natural numbers,starting from 5 upto 15.
So,36 is wrong.

14. Answer B
Solution
Let C = x.Then, B = 4x and 2A = 3 4x = 12 x or A = 6x.
A : B : C = 6x : 4x : x = 6 : 4 : 1 .
So, Bs capital = Rs.

= Rs. 6000.

15. Answer B
Solution
Let the larger number be x.

16.

Ans: C
Explanation: If you fold the above picture at the dotted lines, X and C are opposite
to each other.
17.
Sol : A
Explanation:
Let us assume right most two squares are a , b
Then Sum of all the squares = 18 x 4 + a + b .......... (1)
Also Sum of the squares before 7 = 18
Sum of the squares between 7, x = 18
and sum of the squares between x , 8 = 18
So Sum of the 14 squares = 18 + 7 + 18 + x + 18 + 8 + a + b (2)
Equating 1 and 2 we get x = 3
18. In a calender,
Number of months having 28 days = 1
Number of months having 30 days = 4
Number of months having 31 days = 7
28 x 1 + 30 x 4 + 31 x 7 = 365
Here, a = 1, b = 4, c = 7.
a+b+c = 12

19. Option C
Increase in the population in 10 years = 2,62,500 - 1,75,000 = 87500

% ncrease in the population in 10 years = 87500/175000100=8750/175=50%

Average % increase of population per year = 50%/10=5%
20.
Answer : Option C
Explanation :
Relative speed = Speed of A + Speed of B ( they walk in opposite directions)
= 2 + 3 = 5 rounds per hour
=> They cross each other 5 times in 1 hour and 2 times in 1/2 hour
Time duration from 8 am to 9.30 am = 1.5 hour
Hence they cross each other 7 times before 9.30 am
