Sol. Given,
72
(A + B) = days
5
72
B+C= days

ATQ,
(A + B)8 days + (B + C)4 days + (C)1 days = Total work

C = 18 days
7 1
B = 72 − 18
7−4
B= 72
B = 24 days
5 1
A = 72 − 24
A = 36 days
Total work = 72 units (LCM of days taken by A, B & C)
Efficiency of A = 2 unit/day
Efficiency of B = 3 units/day
Efficiency of C = 4 units/day
4
New efficiency of C = 2 = 2 units/day
72 2
Required days = (2+3+2) = 10 7 days

S7. Ans.(c)
Sol. Let the efficiency of one man be M unit/day, one woman be W unit/day and that of one child be C
unit/day
ATQ,
12 × 10 × M = 15 × 12 × W=20 × 15 × C ⇒ 2M = 3W = 5C
Total work = 12 × 10 × M = 120M units.
In 5 days, work done by men = (12 × 5 × M) = 60M units.
Remaining work = 60M units
Now 9 women work for 5 days
2
Work done by them = 3 M × 9 × 5 = 30M units
Remaining work to be done by children = 60M – 30M = 30M units
This work to be done in 5 days
30M
Per day work by children = 5 = 6M units
5
Required children = 2M × 6M = 15
15 children are required to complete the remaining work in 5 days.

S8. Ans.(e)
90
Sol. Juice obtained from first machine is 100 × 1000 gm = 900 gm
900 × 1.05 ml = 945 ml
Pulp remain from Ist machine = 1000 – 900 = 100 gm
40
Amount of juice obtained from second machine = 100 × 100 = 40gm = 40 × 1.05 ml = 42 ml
Pulp remained from IInd machine = 100 – 40 = 60 gm
Juice obtained by shopkeeper from IIIrd machine

16
= 100 × 60
3

50
= 300 × 60 = 10 gm
Juice obtained = 10 × 1.05 = 10.5 ml
Total juice obtained from 1kg of orange is
= 945 + 42 ml + 10.5 ml
= 997.5 ml

S9. Ans.(b)
Sol. Let initial speed of Aman is x km/hr.
Distance travelled by him in 2 hours is 2x km.
While distance travelled by Rajiv in these 2 hours is 75 × 2 = 150 km
When both of them meet, Aman had travelled a distance of 108 km.
Distance travelled by Aman with 25% increase in his speed = (108 – 2x) km
125 5x
And his increased speed = x(100) = km/hr
4
If Aman had travelled 108 km, Rajiv had travelled 192 km.
192 – 150 = 42 km after 2 hours
Time taken by Rajiv to travel 42 km
42 14
= 75 = 25 hours
This is equal to time taken by Aman to travel (108 – 2x) km
(108–2x) 14
5 = 25
x
4
14×5x
108– 2x = 25×4
7
108 = 10 x + 2x
27
x = 108 ⇒ x = 40 km/hr.
10
5
Therefore increased speed of Aman was = 4 × 40 = 50 km/hr
