3 In a school with 600 students , the average age of
the boys is 12 years and that of girls is 11 years . if
the average age of the school is 11 years and 9 months then
the number of girls in the school is
A 450 b 250 c 150 d 350
Let the number of Girls be X Then number of boys = (600-x)
(11 4/3 * 600 )= 11 x 12 (600-x)
X=7200-7050 =150
Answer c 150

4 Ram bought a cycle and sold it for Rs 4550 which is
30 % more than this original price . What is the original
price of the cycle
A 3500/- b 3800/- c 3600/= d 3400/-
Let cost price (C.P.) = 100.
Profit = 30 %.
Selling price (S.P.) = (100 + 30)
= 130.
If selling price (S.P.) is 130, then cost price (C.P.) is 100.
If selling price (S.P.) is 1, then cost price (C.P.) is $ (100/130).
If selling price (S.P.) is 4550, then cost price (C.P.) is (100 /130 × 4550)
= 3500Answer A 3500/-

6 There are some parrots and some tigers in a forest
. if the total number of animal heads in the forest are 858
and total number of animal legs are 1746 . What is the
number of parrots in the forest
A 843 b 847 c 800 d None of these
Let the no of parrots is assumed as X
Total number of animals = 858
Total tigers = 858-x
Total legs = 2x=4(858-x)=1746
=2x+3432-4x=1746
2x=3432-1746=1686
X=1686/2=843
Answer a 843

7 LCM of 36 , 45,52, 108 and 236 is a
A 414180 b 480414 c 441180 d none of these
36 = 2*2*3*3*
45 = 3*3*5
52 = 2*2*13
108 = 2*2*3*3*3*
236 = 2*2*59
Therefore, L.C.M of 36, 45, 52, 108, 236 = 2*2*3*3*3*5*13*59 = 414180
Answer a 414180

8 Salaries of Akash , Babloo and chintu are in the ratio
of 2:3:5 . If their salaries were increased by 15 % , 10 %
and 20 % respectively
What will be the new ratio of their salaries
A 3:3:10 B 23:33:60 C 20:22:40 D None of these
Let Akash = 2 Babloo = 3 and Chintu = 5
Then 100/115=2 = 23/10
100/110=3 = 33/10
120/100=5= 6
Then new ratio is 23/10 :33/10: 6 = 23:33:60
Answer b 23:33:60

9 A man earns Rs 20 on the first day and spends Rs 15
on the next day . He again earns rs 20 on the third day
and spends rs 15 on the fourth day . if he continues to
save like how soon will have Rs 60 in hand
A on 30 the day b On 40th Day c On 27th Day D On 17th day
Explanation: Money earned in 2 days = Rs.(20 - 15)
= Rs. 15.
Money earned in 16 days = Rs.(5/2 x 16)
‹=›Rs. 40.
On 17th day, money in hand = Rs.(40 + 20 )
= Rs. 60.

12 A hemispherical bowl of internal radius 9 cm
contains a liquid , The liquid is to be filled into
cylindrical shaped small bottles of diameter 3 cm and height
4 cm . How many bottles will be needed to empty the bowl
A 45 b 54 c 35 d 48
Radius of hemisphere= 9 cm
volume of hemisphere= 2/3 π r3
= 2/3 x9x9x9 π
= 486 π
radius of cylindrical shaped bottles= 3/2 cm
height= 4 cm
volume of bottles= π r2h
= 3/2x 3/2 x 4 π
=9 π
now,
Reaquired no. of bottles= volume of hemisphere/ volume of bottles
. =486 π/9π
. =54
Hence, no. of bottles required to empty the bowl = 54
Answer b 54

13 If the numerator of a fraction is increased by 200
% and the denominator is increased by 300 % the resultant
fraction is 6/11 . What was the original fraction .
A 5/11 b 7/11 . c 8/13 d 8/11
If numerator increase 200 % then Numerator will be x+2x =3x
and denominator increased by 300% means denominator will be y = 3y =4y
new fraction will be 3x/4y =6/66 (g
3x/4y = 6/11
dividing numerator by 3 and denominator by 4 both side we will get
x/y =6/3/11/4
x/y=6x4/11x3
x/y =24/33
x/y =8/11
Answer d 8/11
