Explanations:

1. Number of males in the company


7
= × 78000 = 42000
13

35
Number of males working as HR = × 42000 = 14700
100

6
Number of females in the company = × 78000 = 36000
13

25
Number of females working as HR = × 36000 = 9000
100

Total number of employees working as HR = 14700 + 9000 = 23700

Hence, option (D) is correct.

2. Let the ratio of their income be 5x and 4x and their expenditure be 3y and 2y.

So, 5x – 3y = 6000 and 4x – 2y = 6000.

On solving the above equations we get x = 3000 and y = 3000

Suresh’s income = 5x = Rs. 15000

Hence, option (B) is correct.

3.
3 3
18 carat gold = pure gold = × 24 = 18
4 4

5 5
20 carat gold = pure gold = × 24 = 20
6 6

⇒ Required ratio = 18 : 20 = 9 : 10

Hence, option (B) is correct.

4. Method I : We can solve this question by applying alligation method

25000 18000
\ /
22000
/ \
4000 3000
4 : 3

Method II : Let number of regular and part time employees is ‘R’ and ‘P’ respectively.

R + P = 35 ……. (1)
Total salary of regular employees = R × 25000
Total salary of part time employees = P × 18000
Total salary of all 35 employees = 35 × 22000 = 25000R + 18000P
⇒ 770 = 25R + 18P ….. (2)

From (1) and (2)-


⇒ (25R + 18P) – 18 × (R + P) = 770 – (18 × 35)
⇒ 7R = 140
⇒ R = 20

Required ratio = R : P = 20 : (35 – 20) = 20 : 15 = 4 : 3

Hence, option A is correct.

5. Let the present age of Seema be x years


Sweeta’s present age = x – 10
When Seema was 14 years, mother was 34 years. So, when Seema is x years, mother will be = 34 – 14 +
x
Mother’s present age = 20 + x
According to the question,
x + 20 + 6 2
=
x – 10 + 6 1

x + 26 2
=
x–4 1
x = 34 years
Seema’s age = 34 years
Sweeta’s age = 24 years
Mother’s present age = 54 years
34 + 24 + 54
Average = = 37.33 years
3
After 2 years, Seema’s age = 36 years, Sweeta’s age = 26 years, Mother’s age = 56 years
Average after 2 years,
36 + 26 + 56
Avg = = 39.33 years
3
Hence, option B is correct.
6. Let W1, W2, W3 and W4 be his 4 wives.

Given that,

W1 + W2 + W3 + W4 = 1,25,000 ...(i)

2W1 = 3W2 = 4W3 = 6W4 = k

Substituting the value in terms of k in (i)

k k k k
+ + + = 1,25,000
2 3 4 6

1 1 1 1
k (2 + 3 + 4 + 6) = 1,25,000
15
k (12) = 1,25,000
k = 100000

k 100000
Amount received by third wife = = = Rs. 25000
4 4

Hence, option E is correct.

7. Let the age of Virat and Dinesh be V and D respectively

Given that,

V–D=4

V = D + 4 ...(i)

4 years ago,

Virat will be (V – 4) years and Dinesh will be (D – 4) years

(V – 4) : (D – 4) = 3 : 1

Using (I), we get D = 6 and V = 10 years

V+2+D+2
Average of their ages after 2 years = = 10 years
2

Hence, option E is correct.


8. Let the present age of Arjun and Radhika be 3x and 2x respectively.

And the present age of Shyam be y years.

So, y – 2x = 10

y = 10 + 2x ...(i)

3x – 9 4
=
y–9 5

15x – 45 = 4y – 36
15x – 45 = 4 (10 + 2x) – 36
15x – 45 = 40 + 8x – 36

x=7
y = 24

3x + 3 21 + 3
Reqd. ratio = = =8:9
y + 3 24 + 3

Hence, option C is correct.

9. Let the present age of Deepika and Alia be 7x and 6x respectively.

5 years hence,

Deepika’s age = 7x + 5

Alia’s age = 6x + 5

Given that,

7x + 5 = 5 + 6x + 5

x=5

Present age of Deepika = 35 years and Alia = 30 years

After 6 years, age of Deepika = 41 years and Alia = 36 years

Hence, option C is correct.

Smart Approach :
It can be done fast if we see the options:-

Subtract 6 years from the age given in options, then check whether the ratio comes out to be 7 : 6

In this case only option C satisfies it.


Hence option C is correct
10. Let Janki's daily wages be Y.

As per the question,

X% × 300 : 22.5% × Y = 2 : 1

(X × 300) × 1 = 2 × (Y × 22.5)

20 × X = 3 × Y

Y = 20 × X ÷ 3

Given X% of Y = 60

X ÷ 100 × 20 × X ÷ 3 = 60

X2 = 900

X = 30

Hence, option B is correct.

11. Let the income of two persons be Rs 4x

and

Rs 5x and their expenses be Rs 7y and Rs 9y respectively.

Then, 4x – 7y = 50 .... (i)

And 5x – 9y = 50 .... (ii)

On solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get

x = 100 and y = 50

⇒ The income of persons are Rs 400 and Rs 500

Hence, option A is correct.

12. Ratio of 1st and 2nd numbers = 3 : 4

Ratio of 2nd and 3rd numbers = 5 : 6

Let the 2nd number = 5x, third number = 6x

Product of 2nd and 3rd numbers = 4320

5x × 6x = 4320

x2 = 144

x = 12

2nd number = 60, 3rd number = 72,

60
1st number = × 3 = 45
4

Sum of three numbers = 60 + 72 + 45 = 177

Hence, option A is correct.

13. Let the number of candies = 17x and the number of chewing gums = 19x

According to the question,

150% of (17x – 5) = (19x + 25)

(17x – 5) × 3 = 2 × (19x + 25)

51x – 15 = 38x + 50

13x = 65

x=5

14. The ratio of the saving = 6 : 8 : 5

So the saving of Ramesh, Suresh and Dinesh is 6x, 8x, 5x.

The saving of Ramesh is (100 – 70)% = 30% that is 6x. So the income is 6x ÷ 30 × 100 = 20x

The saving of Suresh is (100 – 75)% = 25% that is 8x. So the income is 8x ÷ 25 × 100 = 32x

The saving of Dinesh is (100 – 80)% = 20% that is 5x. So the income is 5x ÷ 20 × 100 = 25x

Total income = 20x + 32x + 25x

17325 = 77x

x = 225

Dinesh’s income = 25 × 225 = Rs. 5625.

Hence, option B is correct.

16. Let the present age of father, son and daughter be F, S and D respectively.

According to the question,

5 years ago, the age of father is 2.25 times the age of son.

F – 5 = 2.25 (S – 5)

F = 2.25S – 5 (2.25 – 1)

F = 2.25S – 6.25 ...(1)

2 years hence, the age of father becomes 2.6 times the age of daughter,

F + 2 = 2.6 (D + 2)

F = 2.6D + 2 (2.6 – 1)

F = 2.6D + 3.2 ...(2)

S–D=7 ...(3)

From (1) and (2),

2.25S – 6.25 = 2.6D + 3.2

2.25S – 2.6D = 9.45 ...(4)

Multiply (3) by 2.25 and subtract it from (4)

– 0.35D = – 6.3

D = 18 years, S = 18 + 7 = 25 years

Substituting value of D in (2),

F = 2.6 × 18 + 3.2

F = 50 years

Hence, option D is correct.

39. Income = Expenditure + Saving

Asaram: 12x = 15y + 3x (3x = 25% of 12x)


Satpal: 9x = 9y + (9x – 9y)
Rahim: 7x = 8y + (7x – 8y)
Therefore, 12x – 3x = 15y

x 5
⇒ =
y 3

3x
⇒y=
5

Therefore, savings = (income – expenditure)

Asaram = 12x – 9x = 3x

27 18
Satpal = 9x – 9y = 9x – x= x
5 5

24 11
Rahim = 7x – 8y = 7x – x= x
5 5

i.e., the ratio of savings of Asaram : Satpal : Rahim

18 11
= 3x : x : x
5 5

= 15 : 18 : 11

Hence, option (C) is correct.

40. According to the question,

1st number 5x, 2nd number = 6x

5X + 10 : 6x + 20 = 4 : 5

(5x + 10) × 5 = (6x + 20) × 4

25x + 50 = 24x + 80

25x – 24x = 80 – 50

x = 30

Lowest number = 5 × 30 = 150

Hence, option C is correct.


41. The ratio of the saving = 6 : 8 : 5

So the saving of X, Y and Z is 6x, 8x, 5x.

The saving of X is (100 – 70)% = 30% that is 6x. So the income is 6x ÷ 30 × 100 = 20x

The saving of Y is (100 – 75)% = 25% that is 8x. So the income is 8x ÷ 25 × 100 = 32x

The saving of Z is (100 – 80)% = 20% that is 5x. So the income is 5x ÷ 20 × 100 = 25x

Total income = 20x + 32x + 25x

17325 = 77x

x = 225

Z’s income = 25 × 225 = 5625 Rs.

Hence, option B is correct.

42. X:Y=8:9

Y:Z=4:5

X : Y : Z = 8 × 4 : 9 × 4 : 9 × 5 = 32 : 36 : 45

Difference between the income of Y and Z = 20480 ÷ 32 × ( 45 – 36) = Rs. 5760

Hence, option D is correct.

43. Milk: Water = 4 : 5

Let us assume if Milk = 4x and water = 5x

According to the question, when 10 litres of water is added in the mixture then

5x + 10 = 150% of 4x

3
5x + 10 = (2) × 4x

The quantity of milk in the mixture = 4x = 4 × 10 = 40 litres

Hence, option E is correct.


44. Initial ratio = 2 : 4 : 5

Final ratio = 1 : 3 : 4

As 15 student from each class are taken out

So the difference of each ratio must be equal,

Therefore, 2 – 1 = 4 – 3 = 5 – 4 = 1

So, 1 unit = 15

Finally total no. of students in three classes = 1 + 3 + 4 = 8units = 8 × 15 = 120

Hence, option D is correct.

45. Let the total number of tigers = 3x then the total number of elephants = 5x

According to the question,

3x – 40 7

39x – 13 × 40 = 35x

4x = 13 × 40

X = 13 × 10 = 130

The number of elephants = 5x = 5 × 130 = 650

Hence, option E is correct.

46. Let 10 years ago, father’s age = 5x then son’s age = 3x

At present, father’s age = 5x + 10 years and son’s age = 3x + 10 years

According to the question,

5x + 10 3
=
3x + 10 2

10x + 20 = 9x + 30

x = 10 years

Therefore, at present, son’s age = 3x + 10 = 40 years

Hence, option D is correct.


47. Let the present age of father and daughter be F and D years respectively.

F – 3 = 2.4(D – 3)
