5
80
100
75
90
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the number be x. Then

60% of 3 of x = 36
5

60 x 3 x x = 36
100 5

x = 36 x 25 = 100

Required number = 100


2.
Which of the following numbers will completely divide (325 + 326 + 327 + 328) ?
11
16
25
30
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

(325 + 326 + 327 + 328) = 325 x (1 + 3 + 32 + 33) = 325 x 40

     = 324 x 3 x 4 x 10

     = (324 x 4 x 30), which is divisible by30.

The sum of the two numbers is 12 and their product is 35. What is the sum of the reciprocals of these numbers ?
12
35
1
35
35
8
7
32
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the numbers be a and b. Then, a + b = 12 and ab = 35.

a + b = 12          1 + 1 = 12
ab 35 b a 35

Sum of reciprocals of given numbers = 12
35


5.
The product of two numbers is 4107. If the H.C.F. of these numbers is 37, then the greater number is:
101
107
111
185
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the numbers be 37a and 37b.

Then, 37a x 37b = 4107

ab = 3.

Now, co-primes with product 3 are (1, 3).

So, the required numbers are (37 x 1, 37 x 3) i.e., (37, 111).

Greater number = 111.


6.
Three number are in the ratio of 3 : 4 : 5 and their L.C.M. is 2400. Their H.C.F. is:
40
80
120
200
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the numbers be 3x, 4x and 5x.

Then, their L.C.M. = 60x.

So, 60x = 2400 or x = 40.

The numbers are (3 x 40), (4 x 40) and (5 x 40).

Hence, required H.C.F. = 40.


7.
There are two examinations rooms A and B. If 10 students are sent from A to B, then the number of students in each room is the same. If 20 candidates are sent from B to A, then the number of students in A is double the number of students in B. The number of students in room A is:
20
80
100
200
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the number of students in rooms A and B be x and y respectively.

Then, x - 10 = y + 10      x - y = 20 .... (i)

     and x + 20 = 2(y - 20)      x - 2y = -60 .... (ii)

Solving (i) and (ii) we get: x = 100 , y = 80.

The required answer A = 100.

The age of father 10 years ago was thrice the age of his son. Ten years hence, father's age will be twice that of his son. The ratio of their present ages is:
5 : 2
7 : 3
9 : 2
13 : 4
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the ages of father and son 10 years ago be 3x and x years respectively.

Then, (3x + 10) + 10 = 2[(x + 10) + 10]

3x + 20 = 2x + 40

x = 20.

Required ratio = (3x + 10) : (x + 10) = 70 : 30 = 7 : 3.

Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the three parts be A, B, C. Then,

A : B = 2 : 3 and B : C = 5 : 8 = 5 x 3 : 8 x 3 = 3 : 24
5 5 5

A : B : C = 2 : 3 : 24 = 10 : 15 : 24

Arun, Kamal and Vinay invested Rs. 8000, Rs. 4000 and Rs. 8000 respectively in a business. Arun left after six months. If after eight months, there was a gain of Rs. 4005, then what will be the share of Kamal?
Rs. 890
Rs. 1335
Rs. 1602
Rs. 1780
Your Answer: Option

Arun : Kamal : Vinay = (8,000 x 6) : (4,000 x 8) : (8,000 x 8)

= 48 : 32 : 64

= 3 : 2 : 4.

Kamal's share = Rs. 4005 x 2 = Rs. 890.

Direction (Q.No. 14)

Each of the questions given below consists of a question followed by three statements. You have to study the question and the statements and decide which of the statement(s) is/are necessary to answer the question.

14.

What is the speed of the train?

I. 

The train crosses a tree in 13 seconds.

II. 

The train crosses a platform of length 250 metres in 27 seconds.

 III. 

The train crosses another train running in the same direction in 32 seconds.

I and II only
II and III only
I and III only
Any two of the three
None of these
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the speed of the train be x metres/sec.

Time taken to cross a tree = Length of the train
Speed of the train

Time taken to cross a platform = (Length of the train + Length of the Platform)
Speed of the train

I gives, 13 = l     13x.
x

II gives 27 = l + 250
x

13x + 250 = 27
x

x = 125 m/sec.
7

Thus I and II give the speed of the train.

The correct answer is (A.)

A tank is 25 m long, 12 m wide and 6 m deep. The cost of plastering its walls and bottom at 75 paise per sq. m, is:
Rs. 456
Rs. 458
Rs. 558
Rs. 568
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Area to be plastered = [2(l + b) x h] + (l x b)
= {[2(25 + 12) x 6] + (25 x 12)} m2
= (444 + 300) m2
= 744 m2.

Cost of plastering = Rs. 744 x 75 = Rs. 558.

In a shower, 5 cm of rain falls. The volume of water that falls on 1.5 hectares of ground is:
75 cu. m
750 cu. m
7500 cu. m
75000 cu. m
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

1 hectare = 10,000 m2

So, Area = (1.5 x 10000) m2 = 15000 m2.

Depth = 5 m = 1 m.
100 20

Volume = (Area x Depth) = 15000 x 1 m3 = 750 m3.

What is the total surface area of a right circular cone of height 14 cm and base radius 7 cm?
344.35 cm2
462 cm2
498.35 cm2
None of these
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

h = 14 cm, r = 7 cm.

So, l = (7)2 + (14)2 = 245 = 75 cm.

Total surface area = rl + r2
= 22 x 7 x 75 + 22 x 7 x 7 cm2
7 7
= [154(5 + 1)] cm2
= (154 x 3.236) cm2
= 498.35 cm2.
