Answers & Solutions:

1) Answer (B)

Let the two numbers be 3x and 7x respectively.
Given, $(3x)^2+(7x)^2 = 3712$
⇒ $9x^2+49x^2 = 3712$
⇒ $58x^2 = 3712$
⇒ $x^2 = 64$
⇒ x = 8
Then, Largest number = 7x = 7*8 = 56

2) Answer (C)

Let the two numbers be 2x and 5x.
Given, $(5x)^2 – (2x)^2 = 1029
⇒ $25x^2 – 4x^2 = 1029
⇒ $21x^2 = 1029
⇒ x^2 = 49
⇒ x = 7.
Then, the two numbers will be,
2x = 2*7 = 14
5x = 5*7 = 35
Then, Sum of two numbers = 14+35 = 49.

3) Answer (C)

Let the present age of daughter be ‘d’ and mother’s be ‘m’
(d-4)/(m-4)=3:8
8d-32=3m-12
8d-3m= 20
(d+6)/(m+6)=8:13
13d+78=8m+48
13d-8m=-30
64d-24m=160
39d-24m=-90
25d=250
d=10
m=20
10 years from now their ages will be d=10+10 and m=20+10
Ratio =20:30
=2:3

4) Answer (B)

let the incomes of U and V be 7x and 9x.
Now (7x+300)/(9x+300)=4:5
35x+1500=36x+1200
x=300
Income of V =9*300
=2700

5) Answer (B)

By taking the amount of soda in each sample we have 1/4,4/7,2/5
and wine as 3/4,3/7,3/5
Total soda content in new sample is ((1/4)+(4/7)+(2/5))=171/140
Total wine content in new sample is ((3/4)+(3/7)+(3/5))=249/140
Ratio =171:249

6) Answer (D)

let their incomes be 5x and 6x
Then their expenditures will be 5x-250 and 6x-200
Therefore (5x-250/6x-200)=4:5
25x-1250=24x-800
x=450
P’s income=450*5
=2250

7) Answer (C)

Amount received by A,B,C and D be 5x,6x,4x and 3x respectively
B-D=6000 i.e 6x-3x=6000
x=2000
Total sum is 5x+6x+4x+3x=18x=36000

8) Answer (A)

Let x, y are the ages of Ravi and chinna

x+y = 30 —-(1)

x-y = 14 —–(2)

add (1) & (2)

x+y+x-y = 30+14

2x = 44

x = 22 then y = 8

Ratio = x/y = 22/8 = 11/4 = 11:4

So the answer is option A.

9) Answer (D)

Let us assume that there are 9x boys and 5x girls. So we have 14x = 420 => x = 30
=> The college has 30*9 = 270 boys and 5*30 = 150 girls
=> Now after 30 new boys join the number of boys will become 300.
The new ratio is 3:2. Hence, the number of girls must be 200.
Thus, 50 new girls must have joined.

10) Answer (C)

For fourth proportional we have 12:36::108:x
Therefore 12x=36*108
x=324

11) Answer (A)

For mean proportional we have 32:x::x:128
Therefore $x^{2}$=32*128
x=64

12) Answer (D)

For 3rd proportional we have 12:36::36:x
Therefore 12x=36*36
x=108

13) Answer (D)

The third proportion is given by the following equation, 48 : 64 :: 64 : ?
So, ? = 64 * 64/ 48 = 85.33

14) Answer (D)

The given scenario can be represented as follows:

So, the required ratio is 25 : 10 = 5 : 2

15) Answer (A)

Let the present ages of Ram and Shyam be 5x and 7x respectively.
Ages of Ram and Shyam 6 years ago = 5x-6 and 7x-6
(5x-6)/(7x-6) = 2/3
3(5x-6) = 2(7x-6)
15x-18 = 14x-12
x = 6
Present ages of Ram and Shyam = 30 years and 42 years.
Sum = 30+42 = 72 years.

16) Answer (D)

D = C

B = C + 125

A = B + C

A + B + C + D = 750

Solving these 4 equations, we get C = 100

B = 225

A = 325

D = 100

17) Answer (C)

Let their ages be 5x and 8x. After 8 years, their ages are 5x + 8 and 8x + 8. But 5x+8:8x+8 = 3:4

Solving for x, we get x = 2

So, difference of ages = 8x – 5x = 3x = 6 years

18) Answer (B)

For a, b, c and d to be proportional, a:b :: c:d must hold true.
=> 8 : 18 :: 24 : x
=> 8x = 24 * 18
=> x = 3 * 18
=> x = 54

19) Answer (D)

Water : Milk = 3 : 2 => water = 3x and milk = 2x
=> x = 30
=> water = 90 litres and milk = 60 litres.
For ratio to become 1:5, water quantity must be 5*60 = 300 litres.
=> water to be added = 300 – 90 = 210 litres.

20) Answer (B)

Let the two numbers be a and b respectively.
$\frac{a+b}{a-b}$ = $\frac{15}{2}$
2a + 2b = 15a – 15b
=> 13a = 17b
$\frac{a}{b}$ = $\frac{17}{13}$
=> a : b = 17 : 13
