5 < P + Q < 12 and P, Q are consecutive prime Hence, option b.
numbers. 55. Solution
P, Q may be either 2, 3 or 3, 5 or 5, 7 ATQ;
But 2 + 3 = 5 (not possible) 40p = 520 - 160
Similarly, 5 + 7 = 12 (not possible) Or, 40p = 360
So, P = 3, Q = 5 (As male < female) So, p = 9
Male = (3/8) × 160 = 60 Since, '9' is a root of the given equation, 92 - l X 9 + 36
Female = 100 =0
Required answer = 60 - (40/300) × 60 + (100 – 72) Or, 81 – 9l + 36 = 0
= 52 + 28 Or, 9l = 117
= 80 So, l = 13
52. Solution Hence, option e.
Number of females in the city in 2014 = 280 X 0.75 + 56.Solution
240 X (2/3) \ Answer: (b) Total booked tickets travelled on Friday
= 210 + 240 = 450 = tickets booked on Friday and travelled on same
Hence, option d. day + tickets booked on Thursday and travelled on
53. Solution (e) Friday
Total number of persons in colony A in 2014 who 616 = 640 x 85% + tickets booked on Thursday and
were living on rent travelled on Friday.
= 280 X 0.5714 = 160 tickets booked on Thursday and travelled on Friday =
Number of persons having their own flats = 280 – 160 72
= 120 On Wednesday all tickets those are booked all are
Number of persons paying both electricity and travelled, there is no pending for Thursday.
maintenance charge = 60 – 43.33 Now,
= 16.67% Number of not cancelled booked tickets on
Number of persons paying electricity charge with Thursday = 90% x (Total tickets booked on Thursday)
maintenance charge Number of tickets those are booked on Thursday but
= 100 – 60 + 16.67 = 56.67% travelled on Friday = 10% x (90% x total tickets booked
Number of persons paying electricity charge only = on Thursday)
56.67 – 16.67 = 40% So, total tickets booked on Thursday = 72/9 x 100 =
Number of persons paying electricity charge only in 800
those who were on rent = 40% of 160 = 64 Hence answer is option (b)
Number of persons having their own flats = 120 57. Solution
Required % = (64/120) × 100 = 53.33% Answer: (c) Booked tickets received on Thursday =

So, number of tickets those booked on Thursday and Booked tickets cancelled on Friday = 1000 – 640 =
travelled on same day = 90% x 720 = 648 360
On Wednesday all not cancelled booked tickets are Booked tickets received on Saturday = 640/8 x 9 =
travelled, so there is no pending for Thursday. 720
Number of booked tickets received on Wednesday = Booked tickets cancelled on Saturday = 720 – 648 =
80% x 800 = 640 72
Number of not cancelled booked tickets on Sum of cancelled booked tickets = 160 + 360 + 72 =
Wednesday = 70% x 640 = 448 592
All these 448 booked tickets those booked on Required sum=592*25/100=148
Wednesday travelled on Wednesday. Hence answer is option (a)
Total booked tickets travelled on Wednesday = 60. Solution
booked tickets travelled on Wednesday (Booked on Let number of males in city Y is x.
Wednesday) + Pending booked tickets of Tuesday Number of females in city X = 1.20 × x = 1.2x
= 448 + 30% x 480 = 592 Number of males in city X = 1080 – 1.2x
Required sum = 592 + 648 = 1240 Number of males in city Z = 5/4 × (1080 – 1.2x)
Hence answer is option (c) According to question;
58. Solution 5/4 × (1080 – 1.2x) = 630
Answer: (d) Total booked tickets not cancelled on Or, 1080 – 1.2x = 504 Or, 1.2x = 576 Or, x = 480
Tuesday = 75% of total booked tickets received on Number of males in city Y = x = 480
Tuesday Number of females in city X = 1.2x = 576
So, total booked tickets received on Tuesday = Number of males in city X = 1080 – 1.2x = 504
480/75 x 100 = 640 Number of females in city Z = 7/6 × 480 = 560
So, booked tickets received on Monday = 640/80 x Total population of city Z = 630 + 560 = 1190
100 = 800 Total population of city P = 576/0.60 = 960
Booked tickets received on Wednesday = 50% x 640 = Number of males in city P = 9/16 × 960 = 540
320 Number of females in city P = 7/16 × 960 = 420
Booked tickets received on Thursday = 320 x 7/4 = Total population of city Y = 420 × 2 = 840
560 Number of females in city Y = 840 – 480 = 360
So, required sum = 800 x 20% + 640 x 25% + 320 x 30% Cities Number of males Number of females
+ 560 x 10% = 472 city X 504 576
Hence answer is option (d) city Z 630 560
59. Solution city P 540 420
Answer: (a) Booked tickets received Tuesday = city Y 480 360
480/75 x 100 = 640 Desired ratio = 504:576 = 7:8
Booked tickets cancelled on Tuesday = 640 – 480 = Hence, option a.
160 61. Solution
Booked tickets received on Friday = 640/64 x 100 = Desired Average = (540 + 480)/2 = 510
1000 Hence, option b.

Ratio of profit shares of Saurabh and Vaibhav at the
65. Ans. (C)
end of the year = {5000 X 12}:{7500 X 12} = 2:3
Books sold by seller F = 800 × 5/8 – 800 × 0.25 = 500 –
Total amount received by Saurabh = commission
200 = 300
earned by Saurabh + Profit share of Saurabh
So, commission earned by Saurabh = 8000 X 0.1 = Rs.
66. Ans. (C)
800
Amount generate by A = 300 × 4/3 × 150 + 500 × 1.2 ×
So, net profit to be distributed between Saurabh and
100 = 60000 + 60000 = 120000
Vaibhav = 8000 - 800 = Rs. 7,200
So, profit share of Saurabh = 7200 X (2/5) = Rs. 2,880
67. Ans. (B)
So, total amount received by Saurabh = 2880 + 800 =
Copies sold by A & B = 500 + 600 = 1100
Rs. 3,680
Books sold by C & D = 200 + 500 = 700
Hence, option e.
Difference = 1100 – 700 = 400
73. Solution
Distance covered by Vikas in the time taken by Anup
68. Ans. (B)
to cover 18x metres = 18x – 8x = 10x metres
Ratio = (300 + 500) : (600 + 100) = 800 : 700 = 8 : 7
And distance covered by Rishabh in the time taken
by Anup to cover 18x metres = 18x – 10x = 8x metres
69. Ans. (C)
Since, the time is constant, the ratio of speeds will be
Sum = (300 + 800 + 400)/3 + (600 + 800 + 100)/3 =
same as the ratio of distance covered.
1500/3 + 1500/3 = 500 + 500 = 1000
So, ratio of speeds of Anup and Vikas = 18x:10x = 9:5
70. Solution (c)
And ratio of speeds of Anup and Rishabh = 18x:8x =
CP = 200
9:4
SP = 2(100+m)
So, ratio of speeds of Vikas and Rishabh = 5:4
New SP = (210+2m)-30

Vikas to cover 18x metres = 14.4x metres {5000 X 12}:{6000 X 12}:{8000 X t} = 60:72:8t = 15:18:2t
So, Vikas will beat Rishabh by 18x – 14.4x = 3.6x metres ATQ;
Hence, option e. {2t/(2t + 33)} X 12250 = 4000
74. Solution Or, {2t/(2t + 33)} = (16/49)
Quantity I: Or, 49t = 16t + 264
Required interest earned = (0.40 X 10000 X 0.12 X 3) + Or, 33t = 264
(0.60 X 10000 X 0.18 X 3) = Rs. 4,680 Or, t = 8
So, Quantity I = Rs. 4,680 Hence, option e.
Quantity II: 77. Solution
Required simple interest = 3600 X 0.15 X (104/12) = Rs. Let the speed of the guard be 'x' km/h
4,680 Now, distance travelled by robber in 30 minutes -
So, Quantity II = Rs. 4,680 distance travelled by the guard in 18 minutes = 600
Therefore, Quantity I = Quantity II metres
Hence, option d. So, (30/60) X 30 - (18/60) X x = (600/1000)
75. Solution Or, 15 - 0.3x = 0.6
Quantity I: Or, 0.3x = 14.4
Present age of Pawan = 42 + 8 = 50 years Or, x = 48
Age of Pawan, 5 years hence from now = 50 + 5 = 55 So, speed of guard = 48 km/h
years And, relative speed of the guard w.r.t. the robber = 48
Age of Saarik, 5 years hence from now = (9/11) X 55 = - 30 = 18 km/h
45 years So, time taken by guard to cover 600 metres = {(600
Present age of Saarik = 45 - 5 = 40 years X 60)/(18 X 1000)} = 2 minutes
Age of Krishna, 5 years hence = 0.70 X (40 + 10) = 35 Required time = 12 + 18 + 2 = 32 minutes
years Hence, option a.
So, present age of Krishna = 35 - 5 = 30 years. 78. Solution
So, Quantity I = 30 years In still water, let speed of fish Dolphin and Shark be
Quantity II: '5x' km/h and '8x' km/h, respectively
Let present age of Chirag be Chirag years Let speed of stream in which fish Dolphin and Shark
So, a + 10 = 1.40 X a are swimming be 'y' km/h and '2y' km/h, respectively
Or, 0.4a = 10 ATQ;
Or, a = 25 5 X (8x - 2y) - 5 X (5x - y) = 50
So, present age of Adbhut = (7/5) X 25 = 35 years Or, 8x - 2y - 5x + y = (50/5) = 10
So, Quantity II = 35 years Or, 3x - y = 10...............(i)
Therefore, Quantity I < Quantity II And, 4 X (8x + 2y) - 4 X (5x + y) = 80
Hence, option b. Or, 8x + 2y - 5x - y = 20
76. Solution Or, 3x + y = 20................(ii)
Let time for which Natthu invested his sum be 't' Adding equation (i) and (ii), we get
months 6x = 30

Or, x = 5 Quantity of sugar in Butterscotch icecream = 396 -
So, still water speed of fish Shark = 8 X 5 = 40 km/h 180 = 216 pounds
Hence, option c. Required ratio = (156 + 180):(144 + 216) = 336:360 = 14:15
79. Solution Hence, option d.
Let efficiency of a man and a woman be 'M' units per 82. Solution
day and 'W' units per day, respectively. Probability that Rishabh speaks the truth = (3/5)
Let total amount of work = 420 units {LCM of 60 and Probability that Rishabh tells a lie = 1 - (3/5) = (2/5)
35} Probability that Sushant speaks the truth = (2/9)
So, 20M + 10W = (420/60) = 7 Probability that Sushant tells a lie = 1 - (2/9) = (7/9)
Multiplying each term by '3', we get; Probability that David speaks the truth = (1/3)
Or, 60M + 30W = 21..............(i) Probability that David tells lie = 1 - (1/3) = (2/3)
And, 24M + 30W = (420/35) = 12............(ii) Required probability = Rishabh and Sushant speaks
Equation (i) - Equation (ii), we get truth while David tells lie + Sushant and David speaks
36M = 9 truth while Rishabh tells lie + Rishabh and David tells
Or, M = (1/4) truth while Sushant tells lie
Efficiency of 160 men = 160 X (1/2) = 80 units per day Required probability = (3/5) X (2/9) X (2/3) + (2/5) X
Required time = (420/80) = 10.5 days (2/9) X (1/3) + (3/5) X (7/9) X (1/3) = (37/135)
Hence, option a. Hence, option d.
80. Solution 83. Sol. (d)
Marked price of sound drum ‘Y’ = (896/0.80) = Rs. 1,120 Speed of the first train = 90 kmph = 25 m/s
Cost price of sound drum ‘Y’ = (1120/2) = Rs. 560 It will clear the tunnel in
200+300
Cost price of sound drum ‘X’ = 560 X (6/7) = Rs. 480 = 20𝑠
25
Marked price of sound drum ‘X’ = 480 X 1.50 = Rs. 720 Speed of the second train = 54 kmph = 15 m/s
So, d = [(720 - 540)/720] X 100 = 25 It will clear the tunnel in
Hence, option d 150+300
= 45 s
10
81. Solution So, the tunnel will be free of traffic in 40s.
Quantity of sugar in Vaneela icecream = (12/25) X 84. Solution
300 = 144 pounds Time taken by Amar to do the whole work = (6/0.25) =
Quantity of milk in Vaneela icecream = 300 - 144 = 24 days
156 pounds Time taken by Akbar to do the whole work = 24 - 2 =
Let quantity of milk in Butterscotch icecream be '5x' 22 days
pounds Time taken by Anthony to do the whole work = 24 - 4
Quantity of sugar in Butterscotch icecream = 1.20 X = 20 days
5x = '6x' pounds Let total work = 220 units
So, 5x + 6x = 396 Efficiency of Akbar = (220/22) = 10 units/day
Or, 11x = 396 Efficiency of Anthony = (220/20) = 11 units/day
Or, x = 36 Required time taken = {(0.84 X 220)/(10 + 11)} = 0.04 X
So, quantity of milk in Butterscotch icecream = 36 X 5 220 = 8.8 days
= 180 pounds Hence, option a.
