Numerical ability (Mathematics) – Answers and Explanations


1. ANS.B.76 4. ANS.B.63.7 million square miles
New mean square= (95*4 +0)/5 Total 100%=130 million square miles
=>380/5 Pacific 49% =>130/100 *49 =>63.7 million square
=>76 miles
2. ANS.A. 3600 m2 5. ANS.D.240 km/h
In 48 poles =>4 poles on corner of square Average speed = (Total distance/ Time taken)
Remaining 44 poles on four sides =>11 poles on each Let side of equilateral triangle = a km
side without corners Total distance covered = (a + a +a)km = 3a km
So 13 corners in each side =>12*5 m=> 60m Time taken = sum of time taken by each side
𝑎 𝑎 𝑎
= (300 +240 + 200 ) hr
Area of square = a2 =>60*60 =3600 m2
= (4a+6a+5a)/1200 hr
3. ANS.B.36 = a/80 hr
Let the numbers be x,x+1,x+2,x+3,x+4,x+5; Hence, average speed = (3a / (a/80))
Sum of first three numbers is 27 = 240 km/hr
So, x + x+1+x+2=27; 6. ANS.C.600
3x+3=27;
3x=24; x=8; Simple interest for 2 years = Rs. 720.
Sum of last three numbers=x+3 +x +4 + x+5
Simple interest for 7 years = Rs. 1020
=>3x+12
 3(8) +12 Simple interest for 5 years = Rs. 1020 – Rs. 720 = Rs.
300.
 24+12

 36 ⇒ Simple interest for 2 years = (300 / 5) * 2 = Rs. 120

⇒ Principal = 720 – 120 = Rs. 600 96x=192*55


X=2*55=>110
∴ The sum is Rs.600. 12. ANS.B.5 lakh
Difference between 2015 and 2017= 45 lakh-40
7. ANS.A. Mean

Mean of five masses=(23.5+15+20+22+16)/5

Total students in 7C=17+2+6+5=>30
So given value is the mean.
Atleast passed in one examination=17+2+6=>25
8. ANS.A.Yes, they are in proportion
Percentage=25/30 *100=>83%
30 to 40 =3:4;

To get the heaviest piece that each of the cakes can
