Answer & Explanation 1.(a) Let the number of Rs. 5 coins be x, Rs. 2 coins be y and Rs. 1 coins be Z. x + y + z = 52 ………………….. (1) 5x + 2y + z = 125 …………………… (2) x + y = 10 …………..(3) (2) ……….(1) Gives that 4x + y = 73 x + y = 37 3x = 36 x = 36/3=12 Number of Rs. 5 coins = 12 2.(b) Let the age of A, B and C be a, b and c respectively. a + b = 4/3c, b = 2/3c a + b + c = 35 = 4/3c + c = 35 7/3c = 35 C = 15, b = 2/3c = 10. 3.(b) P = Q+ R+ S Q = P+ R+ S R = P+ Q+ S By adding above all, we get P+ Q+ R = 2(P+ Q+ R)+ 3S -(P+ Q+ R) = 3S Since P+ Q+ R+ S = 3480 -3S+ S = 3480 hence, S = -1740 4.(b) Let the number of marbles with Ajay and Vijay initially be A and V. If Vijay gives x marble to Ajay then vijay and Ajay would have V – x and A + x marbles respectively. V – x = A + x …………………….. (1) If Ajay gives 2x marble to Vijay then Ajay and Vijay would have A – 2x and V + 2x marbles respectively. V + 2x –(A-2x) = 30 = V – A + 4x = 30 ……………… (2) From (1) we have V – A = 2x Substituting V – A = 2x in equation (2) 6x = 30 = x = 5. 5.(d) Total distance travelled = 1800 km Distance travelled by plane = 600 km Let distance travelled by bus = x Distance travelled by train = 3x/5 x + 3x/5+ 600=1800 8x/5=1200=x=750 km 6.(b) Let the cost of each orange and each banana be a and b respectively. 12a + 18b = 84 If the cost of each orange doubles, it becomes 2a 6(2a) + 16b = 80 12a + 16b = 80 Substracting equation (2) from (1) we get 2b = 4 7.(b) Let the price of book be y and price of pen be x. x + 2y = 70 3x + 9y =300 By solving the equations we get x = 10 and y = 30 The difference between the cost of book and pen is 30 – 10 = Rs. 20 8.(d) Let the present age of the father, mother and daughter be f, m and d respectively. (f+m+d)/3=35 f + m + d = 105 …………………….. (1) m + 15 = f + d Substituting f + d as m + 15 in (1), we get 2m + 15 = 105 2m = 90 =m = 45 years 9.(b) Let the cost of each pen, eraser and sharpener b p, e and s respectively. 3p + 4e + 10s = 75 6p + 7e + 20x = 146 Multiplying the first of the above equations by 2 and subtracting the second equation from it, we get e = 4 10.(a) Let the number of chocolates with shyam and Ram be S and R respectively. If Shyam gives 5 chocolates to Ram, he would have S – 5 chocolates and Ram would have R + 5 chocolates. So S – 5 = R + 5 S – R = 10 …………………… (1) If Ram gives 5 chocolates to Shyam, he would have R – 5 chocolates and Shyam would have S + 5 chocolates. S + 5 = 2 (R – 5) 2R – S = 15 Adding (1) and (2) we get R = 25. Number of chocolates with Ram = 25
hence, cost of each banana = 2 Rs.
