Answers & Solutions:

1) Answer (B)

2) Answer (B)

Let the present ages of x and y be 3a,4a respectively

After 5 years, their ages will be 3a+5 and 4a+5

$\frac{3a+5}{4a+5} = \frac{4}{5}$

==> 5(3a+5) = 4(4a+5)

==> 15a+25 = 16a+20

==> a=5

 

Present age of x = 3*5=15 years

Present age of y = 4*5=20 years

3) Answer (C)

Let the amount distributed among P, Q and R be 5x, 9x and 17x respectively

Total shares of P and Q is 7,000 (given) i.e

$\Rightarrow$ 5x + 9x = 7,000

$\Rightarrow$ 14x = 7,000 (or) x = 500

$\therefore$ R’s share = 17(500) = 8,500

Hence, option C is the correct answer.

4) Answer (D)

Gold is 19 times as heavy as water i.e G = $19W$

Copper is 9 times as heavy as water i.e C = $9W$

Let both the metals be mixed in the ratio of $A : B$. Then,

$\frac{A(G)}{A + B} + \frac{B(C)}{A + B} = 15W$

$A(19W)+ B(9W) = 15W(A + B)$

$19A+ 9B = 15A + 15B$

$4A = 6B$

$A : B = 3 : 2$

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

5) Answer (B)

Let the present ages of x and y be $3x$ and $x$

The ratio between the ages of x and y after 15 years will be 2:1

$\Rightarrow \frac{3x + 15}{x + 15} = \frac{2}{1}$

$\Rightarrow 3x + 15 = 2x + 30$

$\Rightarrow x = 15$

$\therefore$ Present ages of x and y are 45 and 15 respectively.

Hence, option B is the correct answer.

7) Answer (C)

Given that the perimeters of rectangle and triangle are equal

Let the length and breadth of rectangle be ‘l’ and ‘b’ respectively

Let the side of triangle be ‘a’

$\Rightarrow$ 2(l+b)=3a

Given that one side of rectangle of rectangle = side of triangle

Let l=a

$\Rightarrow$ 2(a+b)=3a
$\Rightarrow$ 2a+2b=3a
$\Rightarrow$ a=2b

Area of rectangle : Area of triangle = ab : $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^{2}$

Substituting a=2b in above equation

$\Rightarrow$ $2b^{2} : \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\times4b^{2}$

$\Rightarrow 2:\sqrt{3}$

8) Answer (D)

9) Answer (D)

$\frac{5+\sqrt{11}}{3-2\sqrt{11}} = x+y\sqrt{11}$

Rationalising above equation

$\frac{5+\sqrt{11}}{3-2\sqrt{11}}\times \frac{3+2\sqrt{11}}{3+2\sqrt{11}} = x+y\sqrt{11}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{15+10\sqrt{11}+3\sqrt{11}+22}{9-44} = x+y\sqrt{11}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{37+13\sqrt{11}}{-35} = x+y\sqrt{11}$

$\Rightarrow$ ($\frac{-37}{35})$+($\frac{-13}{35}$)$\sqrt{11} =$ $x+y\sqrt{11}$

Comparing above equations

x $= \frac{-37}{35}$ and y $= \frac{-13}{35}$

10) Answer (A)

Ratio between angles= 3:4:5

Total parts=3+4+5=12 parts

Total angle in triangle=$180^\circ$

12 parts$\rightarrow 180^\circ$

then 1 part$\rightarrow 15^\circ$

\therefore Angles in the triangle are

$15\times3=45^\circ$
$15\times4=60^\circ$
$15\times5=75^\circ$

18) Answer (B)

19) Answer (B)

Let edge of cube = $a$ cm

Now, volume of cube = Volume of cuboid

=> $a^3=5\times10\times20$

=> $a=\sqrt[3]{1000}=10$ cm

Ratio between the total surface area of the cuboid and that of the cube = $\frac{2(lb+bh+hl)}{6a^2}$

= $\frac{2[(5\times10)+(10\times20)+(20\times5)]}{6\times(10)^2}$

=> $\frac{2\times(50+200+100)}{600}=\frac{700}{600}=\frac{7}{6}$

20) Answer (C)

Let radius of the cones be $r_1$ cm and $r_2$ cm respectively.

Slant height of first cone = $l_1=3$ cm and of second cone = $l_2=1$ cm

Curved surface area of cone = $\pi rl$

According to ques, => $\frac{\pi r_1l_1}{\pi r_2l_2}=\frac{1}{9}$

=> $\frac{r_1}{r_2}=\frac{1}{9}\times\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{27}$

Thus, the ratio of the radius of the two cones = 1 : 27

=> Ans – (C)

21) Answer (B)

Given : 3P = 5Q = 15R

Now, L.C.M. (3,5,15) = 15

=> P : Q : R = $(\frac{15}{3}):(\frac{15}{5}):(\frac{15}{15})$

= $5:3:1$

=> Ans – (B)

22) Answer (A)

Let the numbers be $5x$ and $11x$

According to ques,

=> $\frac{5x+10}{11x+10}=\frac{7}{13}$

=> $65x+130=77x+70$

=> $77x-65x=130-70$

=> $x=\frac{60}{12}=5$

$\therefore$ Sum of numbers = $5x+11x=16\times5=80$

=> Ans – (A)

23) Answer (D)

Total expenditure of company P, Q and S together (in %) = $(24+22+16)=62\%$

Total expenditure of all companies (in %) = $100\%$

=> Ans – (D)

24) Answer (B)

Let the numbers be $3x$ and $5x$

According to ques,

=> $\frac{3x+8}{5x+8}=\frac{13}{19}$

=> $57x+152=65x+104$

=> $65x-57x=152-104$

=> $x=\frac{48}{8}=6$

$\therefore$ Sum of numbers = $3x+5x=8\times6=48$

=> Ans – (B)

25) Answer (B)

Total amount spent on Interest = $\frac{20}{100}\times70=Rs.$ $14$ crores

=> Total amount spent on raw materials = $\frac{50}{100}\times14=Rs.$ $7$ crores

Ratio of amount of expenditure on Rent and Raw material = 1 : 2

=> Amount (in Rs) spent on Rent annually = $\frac{1}{2}\times7=Rs.$ $3.5$ crores

=> Ans – (B)

26) Answer (C)

Thus, ratio of profit = $(\frac{1}{4}):(\frac{1}{3}):(\frac{5}{12})$

= $3:4:5$

=> Ans – (C)

28) Answer (B)

Ratio of cars sold by D and E is given by,

(90 degrees) : (75 degrees)

6 : 5

(Note: Here we can ignore the number of cars sold as we need to find the ratio)

Hence, option B is the correct answer.

29) Answer (A)

The ratio of AD and DB = 1: 4 (given)

Hence, the ratio of AD and AB can be taken as 1 : 5

$\triangle$ ADE, $\triangle$ ABC are similar triangles, so their areas will be in the ratio of 1 : 25 ($\because$ AD : AB = 1 : 5)

Total area of the triangle = 200

25x = 200 (or) x = 8 cm$^{2}$

Now, Area of ADE = 8 cm$^{2}$ and Area of DECB = 200 – 8 = 192 cm$^{2}$

Hence, option A is the correct answer.

30) Answer (D)

Let, length of the rectangle = 5x and breadth = 7x

A circular wire of length 168 cm is cut and bent in the form of rectangle i.e perimeter of the rectangle.

$\therefore$ 2(5x + 7x) = 168 $\Rightarrow$ 24x = 168 $\Rightarrow$ x = 7

Length = 35cm and Breadth = 49cm

Now, diagonal of the rectangle = $\sqrt{35^{2} + 49^{2}}$

$\Rightarrow\sqrt{1225 + 2401}\Rightarrow\sqrt{3626}$

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

31) Answer (A)

In case of an equilateral triangle In-radius(r) = $\frac{side}{2\sqrt{3}}$ and circum-radius(R) = $\frac{side}{\sqrt{3}}$

$\therefore$ Ratio between them = $\frac{side}{2\sqrt{3}}$ : $\frac{side}{\sqrt{3}}$

$\Rightarrow$ 1:2

Hence, option A is the correct answer.

32) Answer (D)

Given Length = 6 cm breadth = 9 cm height = 32 cm (of the cuboid)

Volume of both cube and cuboid will be same,

We know that volume of a cuboid = length x breadth x height and volume of the cube = a$^{3}$

$\therefore$ 6 x 9 x 32 = a$^{3}\Rightarrow$ a = 12

Now, surface area of the cuboid is given by,

2(lb + bh + hl) = 2(54 + 288 + 192) = 2 x 534 = 1068

surface area of the cube is given by,

6 a$^{2}$ = 6 (12)$^{2}$ = 864

Ratio of surface area of cuboid and surface area of cube = 1068 : 864 = 89 : 72

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

33) Answer (B)

Curved surface area of a cone = $\pi$rl (where l is the slant height of the cone)

Let, $l_{1} = x$ and $l_{2} = 4x$. Now the equation can be written as,

$\frac{\pi(r_{1})(x)}{\pi(r_{2})(4x)} = \frac{1}{8}$

$\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}} = \frac{1}{2}$

Hence, option B is the correct answer.

34) Answer (D)

Let the two numbers be 4x and 5x.

If both numbers are increased by 4, the ratio becomes 5 : 6

4x + 4 : 5x + 4 = 5 : 6

6(4x + 4) = 5(5x + 4)

24x + 24 = 25x + 20

x = 4

Sum of 2 numbers (5x + 4x) = 9(4) = 36.

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

35) Answer (A)

37) Answer (B)

Ratio of milk and water in 20 litres mixture = 3:1

=> Quantity of milk = $\frac{3}{(3+1)}\times20=15$ litres

=> Quantity of water = $20-15=5$ litres

Let amount of milk added = $x$ litres

According to ques,

=> $\frac{15+x}{5}=\frac{4}{1}$

=> $15+x=20$

=> $x=20-15=5$

$\therefore$ The amount of milk to be added to the mixture so as to have milk and water in the ratio 4 :1 = 5 litres

38) Answer (D)

Initial quantity of milk = 60 litres

When 12 liters of milk taken out from it and replaced by water, then quantity of milk = $60-12=48$ litres and water = $12$ litres

(Total mixture still remains 60 litres)

Again, 12 litres of mixture is taken out, => Fraction of mixture taken out = $\frac{12}{60}=\frac{1}{5}^{th}$

=> Milk left = $48-(\frac{1}{5}\times48)=38.4$ litres

=> Water left = $60-38.4=21.6$ litres

$\therefore$ Required ratio = $\frac{38.4}{21.6}=\frac{64}{36}=16:9$

=> Ans – (D)

39) Answer (A)

Let current ages of Sonali and Monali are $5x$ and $3x$ years respectively.

According to ques,

=> $\frac{5x+5}{3x+5}=\frac{10}{7}$

=> $35x+35=30x+50$

=> $35x-30x=50-35$

=> $5x=15$

=> $x=\frac{15}{5}=3$

$\therefore$ Monali’s current age = $3\times3=9$ years

=> Ans – (A)

40) Answer (A)

Given : $a=\frac{\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}}$

Rationalizing the denominator, we get :

=> $a=\frac{\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}}\times\frac{(\sqrt3-\sqrt2)}{(\sqrt3-\sqrt2)}$

=> $a=\frac{(\sqrt3-\sqrt2)^2}{(\sqrt3+\sqrt2)(\sqrt3-\sqrt2)}$

=> $a=\frac{3+2-2(\sqrt3)(\sqrt2)}{(3-2)}$

=> $a=5-2\sqrt6$

Similarly, $b=5+2\sqrt6$

To find : $a^{2}+b^{2}$

= $(5-2\sqrt6)^2+(5+2\sqrt6)^2$

= $(25+24-20\sqrt6)+(25+24+20\sqrt6)$

= $49+49=98$

=> Ans – (A)
