Answer & Explanation

 

  1. 3
  2. 2

Required percentage = 150/1600 * 100 = 9.375%

  1. 1

Required answer = 130 + 140 + 150 = 420

  1. 3

Required answer = 860 – 310 = 550

  1. 5

Required answer = (1600 – 270)/1600 * 100

= 1330/16%

= 83.125%

  1. 2

Let original price be Rs. x per kg.

Reduced price = 4x/5 per kg

400/(4x/5) – 400/x = 5

2000/4x – 400/x = 5

(2000 – 1600)/4x = 5

20x = 400

x = 20

Reduce price 4x/5 = Rs. 16 per kg

  1. 1

Let the deposited Rs. x at rate of 19% pa

Then

x * 19/100 + (20000 – x) 16/100 = 3440

19x – 16x + 320000 = 344000

3x = 24000

x = Rs. 8000

  1. 5

Capacity of the vessel = 10/{1-(9/25)^(1/2)} = 10*5/2

= 25 litres

  1. 2

Required number of days

= 1/(16/16*25 + 10/40*25)

= 20

  1. 3

Let 100 men complete the house in x days

Here 100 men worked for 19 days and 150 men worked for 8 days

19/x + 150*8/100x = 1

19/x + 12/x = 1

x = 31

 

Behind schedule = 31 – 27 = 4 days
