Direction (01 – 05): Number of science students = 25% of 960 = 240
For School P, Number of commerce students = 40% of 960 =
% of science and commerce students is 25% and 384
40% of total students in school P respectively. Number of commerce students = 336
So, % of Arts students = 100% - 25% - 40% = Similarly, we can find for all schools
35%
Difference between the commerce and arts
students = 48
(40% - 35%) of total students in school P = 48
Total students in school P = 48/5 x 100 = 960

1) Answer: B Value of B = (1600 – 480)/1600 x 100 = 70%

According to the question, Required difference = 70% -65% = 5%
Sum of the Science and Commence students in Hence, the answer is option D
School Q and R together = (608 + 512 + 792 +
540) = 2452 5) Answer: E
Sum of the Science and Commerce Students in Required average = (336 + 480 + 468 + 648)/4 =
School S = 1080 + 672 = 1752 483
Required % change = (2452 – 1752)/1752 x 100 Hence, the answer is option E
= 40%
Hence, the answer is option B 6) Answer: B
Number of Luxury products manufactured by
2) Answer: C Company = 30%
Sum of Science and Arts students of school S = Number of Normal products manufactured by
1080 + 648 = 1728 company = 70%
Sum of Science and Arts students of school P = So, (70% - 30%) of total products = 80
240 + 336 = 576 40% of total products = 80
Required % change = (1728 – 576)/576 x 100 = Total products manufactured by company =
200% 80/40 x 100 = 200
Hence, the answer is option C Number luxury products manufactured = 30% of
200 = 60
3) Answer: A Number of luxury products of variety I = 60 – 24 =
Total number of students in school P and R 36
together = 960 + 1800 = 2760 Hence answer is option B
Total number of students in school Q and S
together = 1600 + 2400 = 4000 7) Answer: A
Required % = 2760/4000 x 100 = 69% According to question,
Hence, the answer is option A Number of normal products manufactured = 135
So, 45% of total products = 135
4) Answer: D Total products = 135/45 x 100 = 300
Value of A = (960 – 336)/960 x 100 = 65% 10

Number luxury products manufactured = 55% of 11) Answer: A

300 = 165 Speed of train Y = 36 km/h
Number of variety I Luxury products So speed of train X = 80% of 36 = 28.8 km/h
manufactured = 165 – 75 = 90 Let the length of train Y = 5a metres
Hence answer is option A So length of train X = 1.4 x 5a = 7a meters
So, (7a + 5a) = (36 + 28.8) x 5/18 x 64
8) Answer: D 12a = 1152
Number of Luxury products of Variety II = 28 So value of a = 1152/12 = 96
Number of luxury products of variety I = 28 + 34 So length of train X = 7 x 96 = 672 meters
= 62 Hence the answer is option A
Total number of luxury products = 62 + 28 = 90
So, total number of products manufactured by 12) Answer: C
company = 90/60 x 100 = 150 Let the money invested in scheme A = 100a
Hence answer is option D Simple interest earned = 100a x 2 x 24% = 48a
Money invested in scheme B = 100a + 48a =
9) Answer: E 148a
Total number of Luxury products manufactured Compound interest earned = 148a x (1.2² - 1) =
by the company = 42 + 36 = 78 65.12a
37.5% of the total number of products = 78 Now, (65.12a – 48a) = 4194.40
Total number of products manufactured = Value of a = 4194.40/17.12 = 245
78/37.5 x 100 = 208 So money invested in scheme B = 148 x 245 =
Number of normal products manufactured = 36260
62.5% of 208 = 130
Hence answer is option E 13) Answer: E
Let the rate of flow of pipe R and pipe Q be 8a
10) Answer: C and 6a respectively.
Total number of Luxury products of variety I So rate of flow of pipe P = 1.5 x 6a = 9a
manufactured by all companies together = 97 x 5 Now, (9a – 8a) = 4ml/minute
= 485 So a = 4
Total number of Luxury products of variety II Rate of flow of pipe Q = 6 x 4 = 24ml/minute
manufactured by all companies together = 24 + Required time = (1.5 x 1000)/24 = 62.5 minutes
36 + 75 + 42 + 28 = 205 Hence answer is option E
Required Sum = 485 + 205 = 690
Hence answer is option C 14) Answer: A

Let the quantity of milk and water in the mixture (21 + 1) x 2 = 44

initially be 700 litres and 500 litres. (44 + 1) x 3 = 135
Amount of mixture = 1200 litres (135 + 1) x 4 = 544
After 1st removal and replacement process (544 + 1) x 5 = 2725
Amount of pure milk = 700 x 80% = 560 litres
After 2nd removal and replacement process 18) Answer: E
Amount of pure milk = 560 x 75% = 420 litres Given series is
Required % = 420/1200 x 100 = 35%
Hence answer is option A
15) Answer: C
Ratio of initial investment/ratio of profit =
2460:3690:3280 = 6:9:8 19) Answer: B
25% of total profit is given to B, so rest profit is Given series is
divided in ratio of capital
Ratio of rest profit and total profit = 3:4 or 69:92
(23 units given to B (ie.25% total profit 92))
Successive prime number
Ratio of initial investment/ratio of profit = 6:9:8 or
18:27:24 = 69 units (total)
20) Answer: A
Profit of B = 33500
So, (27 + 23) units = 50 units = 33500
So value of 1 unit = 33500/50 = 670
Profit share of A = 18 x 670 = 12060
Hence answer is option C
21) Answer: A
Given series is
