2. (D) Let the first odd integer = x = (3 2  1)2
So, the second odd integer = x + 2
Now, So, square root of (3 4  3 16  1)
Difference between the squares of these two
3 3
consecutive odd integers i.e ( 4  3 16  1 ) = 2 1
= (x + 2)2 – x2

will be divisible
by 2 as (x + 1) will be even 28 14
2.8 = =
10 5
 4(x + 1) will be divisible by
4 × 2 i.e. by 8 So, LCM of 0.5, 2.1 & 2.8
3. (D) Let x = the larger number 1 21 14
and y = the smaller number = LCM of , &
2 10 5
Now,
ATQ, x – y = 2395 (i) LCM of 1, 21 & 14 42
= HCF of 2,10 & 5 = = 42

x
and y ; Quotient = 7 and Remainder = 25 7.(D) Required multiplication
= (2×4×6 × 8×10×12 ×14 ×16 ×18×20) ×(5× 10
 x = 7y + 25 (ii) ×15 ×20 ×25)
Now on putting value of y from (i) in (ii) Here, number of zeroes = pairs of 2 and 5
We get, i.e. 8
x = 7(x – 2395) + 25 =8
or, x = 7x – 16765 + 25
or, 6x = 16765 – 25 0.7  0.7  0.7  0.3  0.3  0.3  0.3  0.7  3

4. (C) Let A, B, C and D are four consecutive prime 0.7´ 0.7+ 0.3´ 0.3+ 2´ 0.7´ 0.3
numbers in descending order (  A > B > C > D)
(0.7)3 + (0.3)2 + 0.3 ´ 0.7 ´ 0.3´ (0.7 + 0.3)
According to the question =
A × B × C = 2431 (i) (0.7)2 + (0.3)2 + 2´ 0.7 ´ 0.3
and B × C × D = 1001 (ii)
Now, both 2431 and 1001 are divisible by 11. (0.7  0.3)3 13 1
= 2
  1
i.e. 11 is a common factor of both 2431 and (0.7  0.3) 12 1
1001. 9. (D)  Each of the three distance is the same.
and  B & C are the common factors of 2431 Let, S1, S2 and S3 respectively are the speeds
and 1001. with which three distances have been
 Out of B & C, one must be 11. covered.
So, from (i),
3S1S2S3
2431 So, Average Speed = S S + S S + S S
Product of other two prime numbers = 1 2 2 3 3 1
11
= 221 3 15 30 40
=
and  221 = 17 × 13 15 30  30 40 4015
 Out of A, B and C, one is 17, one is 13
3  15  30  40
and one is 11. =
and  A > B > C 450  1200  600
 A = 17, B = 13 and C = 11 54000
So, the largest given prime number = 17 = = 24 km/hr

 22  Both train will cross each other at a
10. (B) A+C= part distance 300 km & from A i.e. at the exact
37
middle point of A and B.

or, +C= C =   part
27 37 37 37 37 12 18
 54  = x
6 60 60
So, Wage of C =  9250 = ` 1500
37  x = 36 km/hr
11. (C) Let, 15. (C)
A B
(A + B) x days Ratio of speeds 3 5
Time taken (x + 8)hr : x hr.
So, A alone (x + 8) days (where x  time taken by B to cover
the distance)
and, B alone (x + 18) days
As the distance is same.
In such type of questions
 3(x + 8) = 5x
The no. of days taken by A and B working
 3x + 24 = 5x
together to do the work = 8  18 days  x = 12 hr.
= 144 days So,
Actual time taken by A to cover the
= 12 days
distance i.e. (x + 8) hr. = (12 + 8) hrs
12. (D) A B ` = 20 hrs.
Ratio of speed = 2 1 16. (C) Sum of wrongly entered marks
Ratio of duration = 3 : 1 = 73 + 78 + 80
Ratio of distance = 6 : 1 = 231

and Sum of correct marks
any same duration
of time = 63 + 70 + 82
( Distance = Speed × time ) = 215
i.e. Sum of corrected marks <sum of
13. (A) 600 km wrongly marks (by 16 marks)
So,

Now, Relative speeds of trains The average of above 6 consecut ive

18. (D) Total money spent by all of them  133x2 = 532
= (18 × 25) + {1 × (25 + 15)}  x =2
= 450 + 40 So, the 2nd no.

3 : 2 5 : 3 = ` 433.33
Ratio of contents of vessel '1' to vessel '2' to

 Ratio of water and milk in the resulting Alternative method:-
Let,
3 5  24  50 x = C.P. of table

21. (B) Initial Ratio = 4 : 6 : 9 = Total profit
Initial numbers = 4x, 6x, 9x or, 20% of x + 25% of (1300 – x)
Final Ratio = 7 : 9 : 12 1
= 23 % of 1300
(on increasing 12 students in each class) 3
4x  12 7 20 25 70
 = or, x (1300  x ) =  1300
6x  12 9 100 100 3  100
or, 36x + 108 = 42x + 84
x 1300 x 910
 6x = 24  x = 4 or,   
5 4 4 3
 Total no. of students in the three
classes before the increase = 4x + 6x + 9x x x 910
or,    325
= 19x = 76 5 4 3
22. (B) According to question
4x  5x 910  975
10% of 1st no. = 6 or, =
20 3
1
or, of 1st no. 6  1st no. = 60 x 65
10 or,  = 
20 3
and,  Ratio of 1st numbers to 2nd numbers
=4:3 65  20
 Nos. are  60 & 45  x= = ` 433.33
3
Now, 20% of 2nd no. = 20% of 45 = 9
25. (C) A's share = ` 12000
& 5% of 1st no. = 5% of 60 = 3
And,  9 is 3 times of 3. 3
= of (100% – 20%) of total profit
 20% of 2nd no. is 3 times of 5% of the 8
first no.

23. (D) 1st no. : 2nd no. & 2nd no. : 3rd no. = of 80% of total profit
8
= 3:2 = 3 :2
st nd rd
 1 no. : 2 no. : 3 no. 8
= 9 : 6 :4  80% of total profit = ` 12000 ×
3
So, Let the nos. are 9x, 6x & 4x So, Total profit (i.e. 100%)
ATQ, (9x)2 + (6x)2 + (4x)2 + 532
 8 100 31. (A) Required single discount

3 80
= (1 – 0.54) × 100%
26. (A) Let the third no. be 100.
= 0.46% × 100%
So, A and B will be 80 and 72 respectively.
= 46%
difference of A & B
So, required % = × 100% 1

8 = 140% of CP per mango
=  100% = 10%
80 So, C.P. per mango (i.e. 100%)
27. (B) Total no. of illiterate persons in the town 1 100 1

 14 mangoes for ` 1.
 40  33. (A) Let x = C.P. of 2nd watch
= (100%  24%) of  311250 +
 83  So, (1120 – x) = C.P. of 1st watch
ATQ, Profit = Loss
 43 
(100%  8%) of  311250  15% of (1120 – x) = 10% of x
 83 
 15(1120 – x) = 10x
76 40 92 43  25x = 15 × 1120

100 83 100 83 15  1120

25
= 262350
28. (B) Let x = maximum marks 1
34. (D) 10% (15 + 2.5)% = 17 %
According to question 2
30% of x + 50 = 320 + 30 2:1 5
gap = 5% gap = % = 2.5%
30 2
or, x = 300 15%
100
1:2
300  100
 x = = 1000 marks 50 pens (150 – 50) pens
30
= 100 pens
29. (D) Let x = man's initial income
So, Man's increased income = (x + 1200) 35. (D) C.P. of 40 article = SP of 25 articles
Now, ATQ, In such type of questions,
12% of x = 10% of (x + 1200)
40  25
 12x = 10(x + 1200) Gain percent =  100%
25
or, 12x – 10x = 12000
 x = 6000 15
=  100% = 60%
So, increased income; 25
i.e. x + 1200 = ` 6000 + ` 1200 36. (B)
C.P. S.P.

30. (D) 20% profit on one and 20% loss on other ` x ` x+ = ` x
Now, 5 5

(20 )2 B C
120 6 36 x
and loss % =
100
= 4% x6 × x = `
5 100 5 25
 Total SP = (100 – 4)% of total C.P. Now,
 2 × 4.5 lakh = 96% of total C.P.
So, loss i.e. 4% of total C.P. C ` 600
36x 36x – 1 36 x
2  4.5 lakh ` ` ×

6 25 5 For 1st year ` 135 ` 135
6 For 2nd year ` 135 ` 162 = ` 135+ ` 27
 ` x = ` 600
5 Now, if r = rate of interest per annum
 r% of 135 = 27
600  5
So, CP of A i.e. ` x = ` = ` 500
6 27  100
 r= = 20
37. (D) 10% discount 135
M.P. Price after 10% discount Also,

Again, 135  100

38. (B) Single equivalent discount of 20% & if r = rate of interest per annum
1  r% of 3840 = 96
another of 6 %.

39. (C) 20% discount on List Price – 25% 18M + 50B  5 days
discount on List Price = ` 500  9M + 25B  10 days (ii)
 80% value of List Price – 75% value of From (i) & (ii)
List Price = ` 500 We have,
 5% value of List Price = ` 500 12M + 16B = 9M + 25B
 3M = 9B
500  100
 List Price (i.e. 100%)= ` = ` 10000  1M = 3B

So, Efficiency of a man to that of a boy = 3 : 1
So, Tarun bought the TV at 80% of List Price

Also,
SI @ 2% p.a. for 5 yrs. = 10% of sum
According to question Raj 12 days
(12% – 10%) of sum = ` 150 in 1 day 1 part of work
Raj
 2% of sum = ` 150

Now,

48. (A) 12 km up + 18 km down  in 3 hrs. x72 + x66 + x54 + x36 + x24 + x6 + 1
 36 km up + 54 km down  in 9 hrs. = (x6)12 + (x6)11 + (x6)9 + (x6)6 + (x6)4 + x6 + 1
..... (i) = (–1)12 + (–1)11 + (–1)9 + (–1)6 + (–1)4 + (–1) + 1

Also, 36 km up + 24 km down  in 6 hrs.

..... (ii)
From (i) & (ii), we get, 52. (A) Let x = (27  756 )1/3  (27  756 )1/3
1 x3 = 27  756  27  756 +
30 km down  in 2 hours

 Sdown (i.e. SB + SC) = 12 km/hour 3(27 + 756)1/3(27 - 756)1/3
Also,
 Sup (i.e. SB + SC) = 8 km/hour {(27  756 )  (27  756 )}
So, x 3
