Required percentage=48x-44.8x/44.8x*100=7% B =25/100* (C +15)
(D+4)*12.5/100= (A +4)
2) Answer: A 5 A +40 = 3B
SI = P * N * R/100 B =(5A +40)/3
5580 – P = P * 2 * R/100 B = 25/100 * (C +15)
6120 – P = P * 3 * R/100 (5A + 40)/3 = 1/4* (C+15)
5580 – P/2 = 6120 – P /3 20A +160 = 3C+45
16740 – 3P = 12240 – 2P (20A +115) = 3C
P = 4500 C = (20A + 115)/3
CI = 4500 * (1 + 10/100)2 - 4500 (D+4) *12.5/100 = (A +4)
CI = 4500 * (21/100) (D +4)*1/8 = (A +4)
CI = 945 D +4 = 8A +32
D = 8A + 28
3) Answer: A Total age of all four together after one year
C’s income = x (A +1)+ (C +1)+ (B +1)+ (D +1) = 101
Expenditure = y A + B + C + D = 97
Savings = s A +(20A +115)/3+(5A +40)/3+ (8A +28) = 97
x=y +s 52A = 291-239
y + s – s = 12000 A=1
y = 12000 B = (5A + 40)/3
Savings = 12000 * ½ = 6000 Present age of B = (5(1) + 40)/3

* x) = 60/x
5) Answer: C 150/x + 270/x + 60/x = 8
Salary = x x = 60 kmph
Amount spend on education fee and house rent
= x * 25/100 * 20/100 = 45x/100 8) Answer: B
Remaining amount = 55x/100 A = 9/4 * 20 = 45
1100/(55x/100 – 1100) = 3/4 B = 2/1 * 15 = 30
4400 = 165x/100 – 3300 C = 5/4 * 36 = 45
7700 = 165x/100 (x + 5/45) + (x + 5/30) + (x/45) = 1
x = 4667 2x + 10 + 3x + 15 + 2x = 90
7x = 65
6) Answer: A x = 65/7 = 9(2/7)
Profit ratio of A and B = 4000 *6: 6000 *8 Total time = 5 + 9(2/7) = 14(2/7) days
= 1:2
Salary taken by A = 100*6= 600 9) Answer: E
Salary taken by B = 100*8= 800 A + B + C = 1/8
Total salary taken by=600 + 800 = 1400 A: B = 6: 5
B’s profit=2x/3 Time ratio of A and B = 5: 6
2x/3+ 800 = 2800 B: C = 5: 4
2x/3= 2000 Time ratio of B and C = 4: 5
x = 3000 Time ratio of A, B and C = 10: 12: 15
Hence total profit = 3000 + 1400 = 4400 1/10x + 1/12x + 1/15x = 1/8
(6 + 5 + 4)/60x = 1/8
7) Answer: C 1/x = ½
Usual speed of the bike = x Time taken by C = 15 * 2 = 30 hours
25% of the distance = 360 * 25/100 = 90 km Half of the tank fill in = 30/2 = 15 hours
Time taken by travels 25% of the distance =
90/(60 * x/100) = 150/x 10) Answer: B
80% of the remaining distance = 270 * 80/100 = Let Quantity of milk from vessel A = 3x
216 km Quantity of the water from vessel A = 2x
Time taken by travels 216 km = 216/(80/100 * x) Quantity of milk from vessel B = 5y
= 270/x Quantity of water from vessel B = 6y
Remaining distance = 270 – 216 = 54 km Now, Milk in vessel B = 5 * 5 = 25 liters

Water in vessel B = 6 * 5 = 30 liters Area of circular garden = πr2

(25 + 3x)/(30 + 2x) = 11/10 = 22/7 × 28 × 28
330 + 22x = 250 + 30x = 2464 cm2
8x = 80 Perimeter of square = 2464 × 3/4 = 1848 cm
x = 10 Then, according to the question,
Quantity of vessel A = 5 * 10 = 50 liters = 4a = 1848
= a = 462
11) Answer: A So, the area of square park is = 462 × 462 =
Four years ago the total age of the class = 24 * 2,13,444 cm2
16 = 384 So, sum of the circular garden and perimeter of
Two years ago the total age of the class = 384 + square park is,
16 * 2 – 29 = 387 = 2464 + 1848 = 4312
One year ago the total age of the class = 387 + Thus, the required percentage is =
24 + 15 = 426 4312/2,13,444 × 100 ≈ 2%
Present age of all the students = 426 + 16 = 442
Average age= 442 / 16 = 27.625 years 14) Answer: E
Length of train A = 3x

Speed of downstream = 120/8 = 15 kmph Speed of train A = 4y
Speed of upstream = 120/40 = 3 kmph Speed of train B = 3y
Speed of the boat in still water = (15 + 3)/2 = 9 2x = 3y * 5/18 * 8
kmph 3x = 10y
Speed of the stream = (15 – 3)/2 = 6 kmph 5x = y * 5/18 * 60
After increased the speed by boat = 9 + 6 = 15 3x = 10y
kmph
Stream speed = 6 + 4 = 10 kmph 15) Answer: C
Downstream speed = 15 + 10 = 25 kmph Required number of ways
Upstream speed = 15 – 10 = 5 kmph = (5C 2*4C 1*6C 3) + (5C 3*4C 1*6C 2)
Required time = 200/25 + 200/5 = 8 + 40 = 48 = (5C 2*4C 1*6C 3) + (5C 2*4C 1*6C 2)
hours = 5C1*4C 1*(6C 1 + 6C2)
= 10*4*(20 + 15)
13) Answer: C = 40*35
Radius of circular garden = (176 × 7)/(22 × 2) = 1400
= 28 cm

16) Answer: A = 12y – 2xy

Cost price of the article be x (12y-2xy) = (40/100)(3xy+6y)
Marked price by A = 1.5x and by B = 1.25x 60y – 10xy = 6xy + 12y
Selling price of A = 1.5x – discount = 1.5x – 1.5x 48y = 16xy
* 20/100 x=3
= 1.5x – 0.3x = 1.2x
Selling price of B = 1.25x 19) Answer: C
Percentage = (1.25x - 1.2x/1.25x)*100 = 4% Let the number of red balls in the bag = x
less So, the number of blue balls in the bag = (x – 2)
And total number of balls in the bag = (x + x – 2)
17) Answer: B = (2x – 2)
Let us take the sum be x, Since, the probability of drawing two red balls at
Given, random = 2/5
(124/100) * x = 74400 So,
x = 74400 * (100/124) = Rs. 60000
S.I = 74400 - 60000 = Rs. 14400
C.I = 14400 + 4950 = Rs. 19350
Total amount= 19350 + 60000 = Rs. 79350
60000 * (1+x/100)2=79350
(1+x/100)2=529/400
(1 + x/100)2 = (23/20)2
1+x/100= 23/20
(100 + x) / 100 = 23/20
100 + x = 115
5x2 – 5x = 8x2 – 20x + 12
x = 15
3x2 – 15x + 12 = 0
3x2 – 12x – 3x + 12 = 0
18) Answer: C
3x (x – 4) – 3(x – 4) = 0
CP of mobile = y
x=4
CP of laptop =3y.
Total number of balls in the bag = 2 * 4 – 2 = 6
Total amount paid by Ram =(x*3y)+(6 * y) = 3xy
The number of blue balls in the bag = 4 – 2 = 2
+ 6y
Required probability = 2C 2/6C2 = 1/15
Total amount paid by Rahul = (6 * 3y) + (x * y) =
18y + xy
20) Answer: C
Amount Difference= (18y+xy) - (3xy + 6y)

19)/3 years = (x - 1) years
x + 19 = 3x - 3 23) Answer: C
x = 11 years (Shetty’s present age) Distance between Chennai and Bangalore = x
Required ratio = Sanjay’s age 2 years ago: After two hours distance covered by car = 80 * 2
Anurag’s age after 3 years = 160 km
= (2x + 8 - 2): (x – 1 + 3) New speed of the car = 80 * 150/100 = 120
= 28:13 kmph
(x – 160)/80 – (x – 160) / 120 = 2
