Q.15) The product of two numbers is 1/3 and their quotient is 6/18, find the pair
of numbers?

A. 1/2, 2/3
B. 1/3, 1

C. 1/4, 4/3

D. 1/2, 3/2

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let A = x/y, and B be two numbers

It is given that A×B = 1/3
Therefore (x/y )B = 1/3
B = y/3x
Therefore, A = x/y and B = y/3x
It is given that A/B = (x/y) / (y/3x) = 6/18
Therefore 3x2/y2 = 6/18
Therefore, x2/y2 = 1/9
x/y = 1/3
B = y/3x = 3/3= 1
Therefore A = 1/3 and B = 1

Q.16) If x + 5y = 16 and x = -4y, then y =?

Q.17) If one is added to the numerator of the fraction it becomes one. If one is
added to the denominator of the fraction it becomes 1/3. The fraction is?

A. 4/5

B. 2/3

C. 1/2

D. 2/7

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the fraction be x/y.

⟹ (x+1)/y = 1

⟹ x+1 = y……..(1)
x/(y+1) = 1/3

⟹ 3x = (y+1)…….(2)

Equating (1) and (2)

x+1 = 3x-1

⟹x=1

Substituting the value of x in (1)

⟹y=2

Hence, the fraction = x/y = 1/2

Q.18) Sam travels 330 km on three-fifths of his petrol tank. How far would he
travel at the same rate with a full tank of petrol?

A. 550 km

B. 580 km

C. 520 km

D. 560 km

Answer: Option A
Explanation:

Distance travelled by Sam with three-fifths (i.e.3/5) of petrol tank = 330 km

Distance travelled by him with a full petrol tank = (330 ÷ (3/5)) km

= (330 x 5)/3 km

= 550 km.

Q.19) 1/6 of a number equals (2/5) ÷ (1/20). What is the number?

A. 42

B. 50

C. 48

Explanation:

Let p be the number.

According to the given,

(1/6) × p = (2/5) ÷ (1/20)

p/6 = (2/5) × (20/1)

p/6 = 2 × 4

p=8×6

p = 48
Hence, 48 is the required number.

Q.52) In a fraction the numerator is 5 less than the denominator. If six is added to
the denominator the denominator of the resultant fraction is double the
numerator. Find the fraction.

A. 13/18

B. 8/13

C. 12/17

D. 11/16

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the fraction be m/n

Then, n – m = 5……..(1)

Also, n+6 = 2(m)

⟹ n – 2m = -6……..(2)

From (1) and (2)

m = 11 and n = 16
Hence, required fraction = 11/16

Q.54) If 2x + 8y = 27 and x = (1/2)y, then x2 =?

A. 9/4

B. 9/16

C. 16/25

D. 4/25
Answer: Option A

Explanation:

2x + 8y = 27 and x = (1/2)y

⟹ y + 8y = 27

⟹ 9y = 27

⟹y=3

∴ x = 3/2

Hence, x2 = 9/4
