3=45

1=15

4=60

2.b

 

3.c

V=Pie r^2h

=22/7*9^2*28=7128

 

4.a

Let M.P=100

SP1=90

CP=90*100/120=75

SP2=85

P%=10/75*100=40/3

 

5.a

Let time taken by B =t

so time taken by A=t+2

when speed of A is double then time taken by A=(t+2)/2

so,(t+2)/2= t-1

t=4 hr

 

6.a

 

7.b

Numbers of sweets got by students = 45*9=405

Numbers of sweets got by teachers = 8*18=144

Recquired Sweets=405+144=549

 

8.c Let numbers of students in A and B are x and y

x-10=y+10

x-y=20…….(1)

 

(x+20)/(y-20)=2

x-2y=-60…….(2)

From above Eq.

x=100

 

9.c

Speed of train=880/16*70/100=38.5
