11) Answer (C)
Reframing the question by assuming the unknown to be x.
38% of 4500 – 1640 = 25% of x (x/4)
= 1710 – 1640 = 70
x = 280
12) Answer (D)
The question is written as 25639 – (5252+3232) = 25639 – 8484 = 17155
13) Answer (A)
Now, let unknown be x.
283*56=15848
15848+252=16100
20x=16100
x=805
14) Answer (D)
Let the present age of P be 8x and Q be 5x
After 4 years, P’s age = 8x + 4 and Q’s age = 5x + 4
$\frac{8x+4}{5x+4} = \frac{4}{3}$
$24x + 12 = 20x + 16$
$x = 1$
Present age of P = 8 years
Present age of Q = 5 years
Required ratio = 15 : 5 = 3 : 1
15) Answer (A)
Since the ages of A, B, C, D are consecutive
Let the ages of A, B, C, D be n, n+1,n+2,n+3
$\frac{n+n+1+n+2+n+3}{4} = 49.5
$ 4n+6 = 49.5*4 = 198
4n = 192
n = 48
Ages of A, B, C, D = 48, 49, 50 ,51
Product of ages of B and D = 49*51 = (50-1)(50+1) =$50^2-1$ = 2500-1 = 2449.

16) Answer (D)
let A be 2x ,B be 2x +2 and C be 2x +4
Given that 4A = 3C
4(2x) = 3 (2x +4)
8x = 6x +12
2x = 12
x = 6
B = 2*6 + 2 = 14
17) Answer (B)
Let the rate of interest on the principal be R.
So, 19800*R*3/100 = 7128
So, R = 12%
Hence, the compound interest on the same amount for the same time period equals 19800*1.12^3 – 19800 = 27817.57 – 19800 = Rs. 8017.57
18) Answer (A)
The selling price is Rs. 16,756
Profit percentage is 18%
Let the cost price of the TV set be C.
So, C*118% = 16756
Or, C = 16756*100/118 = 14200
19) Answer (C)
Let Amit’s speed of key depressions per hour be X.
So, Sumit’s speed of key depressions is 80% of X.
In total, the number of key depressions per hour by both of them is 1.8 X
The total number of key depressions in a day by both of them together is 1.8*8 = 14.4 X
This equals 576000/5 = 115200.
So, 14.4 * X = 115200
Or, X = 115200/14.4 = 8000
20) Answer (B)
Let the marked price be Rs. 100.
Then cost price = 100 – 40 = Rs. 60
Selling price = 100+ 50 = Rs. 150
Profit = 150 – 60 = 90
Profit%=90/60×100=150%
