Answers & Solutions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Initially let’s consider A and B as one component<\/p>\n

The volume of the mixture is doubled by\u00a0adding A(60% alcohol) i.e they are mixed in 1:1 ratio and the resultant mixture has 72% alcohol.<\/p>\n

Let the percentage of alcohol in component 1 be ‘x’.<\/p>\n

Using allegations ,\u00a0$\\frac{\\left(72-60\\right)}{x-72}=\\frac{1}{1}$ => x= 84<\/p>\n

Percentage of alcohol in\u00a0A = 60% => Let’s percentage of alcohol in B = x%<\/p>\n

The resultant mixture has 84% alcohol. ratio = 1:3<\/p>\n

Using allegations ,\u00a0$\\frac{\\left(x-84\\right)}{84-60}=\\frac{1}{3}$<\/p>\n

=> x= 92%<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0Answer:\u00a020<\/b><\/p>\n

Assuming the number of students =100x<\/p>\n

Hence, the number of girls = 60x and the number of boys = 40x<\/p>\n

We have, 60x-40x=30\u00a0 => x=1.5<\/p>\n

The number of girls = 60*1.5=90<\/p>\n

Number of girls that pass = 68x-30=68*1.5-30 = 102-30=72<\/p>\n

The number of girls who do not pass = 90-72=18<\/p>\n

Hence the percentage of girls who do not pass = 1800\/90=20<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is given\u00a020% of x = y<\/p>\n

x=5y<\/p>\n

We have to find y% of 20 =\u00a0$\\ \\frac{\\ y}{100}\\times\\ 20$<\/p>\n

=$\\ \\frac{\\ y}{5}$<\/p>\n

=$\\ \\frac{\\ x}{25}$<\/p>\n

= 4% of x<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the initial price and expenditure of sugar be 100p, 100e respectively.<\/p>\n

Consumption = $\\ \\frac{\\ Expenditure\\ }{\\Pr ice}$<\/p>\n

=$\\ \\frac{\\ e\\ }{p}$<\/p>\n

The increased price of sugar = 120p<\/p>\n

Increased expenditure on sugar = 105e<\/p>\n

Changed consumption =\u00a0$\\ \\frac{105\\ e\\ }{120p}$<\/p>\n

=0.875\u00a0$\\ \\frac{\\ e\\ }{p}$<\/p>\n

Percentage decrease in consumption =\u00a0$\\ \\frac{(0.875-1)}{1}$*100<\/p>\n

=12.5<\/p>\n

B is the correct answer.<\/p>\n

5)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sum of all (Petrol price per litre – taxes) in the last week = 35+34+35.5+37+37.5+38<\/p>\n

=\u00a0\u00a0217<\/p>\n

Taxes on petrol = 1.25 times (the price of petrol – taxes)<\/p>\n

2.25* taxes on petrol = 1.25 times the price of petrol<\/p>\n

The price of petrol = 1.8 times the taxes on petrol.<\/p>\n

1.8 times the taxes on petrol – taxes on petrol = 217<\/p>\n

0.8 times the taxes on petrol = 217<\/p>\n

Taxes on petrol = $\\ \\frac{217}{0.8}$ = 271.25<\/p>\n

The average amount of tax collected =\u00a0$\\ \\frac{271.25}{6}$<\/p>\n

= 45.2<\/p>\n

A is the correct answer.<\/p>\n

6)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the cost of the fridge = 100x<\/p>\n

The price of the TV = 150x (Since the cost of TV is 150% of the cost of the fridge)<\/p>\n

The price of the fridge\u00a0 $\\ \\frac{\\ 100x}{100x+150x}$ times the price of TV and fridge<\/p>\n

The price of the fridge\u00a0=40% of the price of TV and fridge<\/p>\n

B is the correct answer.<\/p>\n

7)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nawab\u2019s satisfaction\/ utility level is given by adding twice of the satisfaction level of Saif with the satisfaction level of Amir.<\/p>\n

Saif makes a profit of \u20b9 100, his satisfaction level goes up by 10% and if he suffers a loss of \u20b9100, his satisfaction level goes down by 10%.<\/p>\n

Amir makes profit of \u20b9 100, his satisfaction level goes up by 5% and if he suffers a loss of \u20b9 100, his satisfaction level goes down by 15%.<\/p>\n

Nawab\u2019s satisfaction level is 24 and the satisfaction level of Saif is the same as the satisfaction level of Amir<\/p>\n

Let x be the satisfaction level of Saif<\/p>\n

24=3x<\/p>\n

x=8<\/p>\n

If Saif makes a profit of 100 and Amir suffers a loss of \u20b9 100, the satisfaction level of Saif and Amir goes up by 10% and goes down by 15% respectively.<\/p>\n

The satisfaction of Saif and Amir = 8.8 and 6.8<\/p>\n

Nawab’s new satisfaction\/ utility level = 2*8.8+6.8 =24.4<\/p>\n

Percentage change =\u00a0$\\ \\frac{\\ 24.4-24}{24}$<\/p>\n

=1.67%<\/p>\n

D is the correct answer.<\/p>\n

8)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the total customers be 100.<\/p>\n

Number of customers who said that they will return = 76x<\/p>\n

Number of customers who said that will not return = 24x<\/p>\n

Number of customers among those who said that they will return rated the restaurant as good = 76x*0.36<\/p>\n

Number of customers among those who said that they will not return rated the restaurant as good = 24x*0.32<\/p>\n

Number of customers who rated the restaurant as good =\u00a076x*0.36+24x*0.32 = 35.04x<\/p>\n

Percentage of customers who rated the restaurant as good = approx 35%<\/p>\n

B is the correct answer.<\/p>\n

9)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the salary of Saroj be 100x<\/p>\n

The salary of Raju = 80x<\/p>\n

The salary of Ram =\u00a0 70x<\/p>\n

the percent by which\u00a0the salary of Raju more than the salary of Ram =\u00a0$\\ \\frac{\\ 80x-70x}{70x}\\times\\ 100$<\/p>\n

=$\\ \\frac{\\ 1}{7}\\times\\ 100$<\/p>\n

=14.28%<\/p>\n

D is the correct answer.<\/p>\n

10)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

A+B+C+D = 56\u00a0 — Eq 1<\/p>\n

B+C+D = 4.6A\u00a0 \u00a0— Eq 2
\nA+C+D =\u00a0$\\ \\ \\frac{11B}{3}$\u00a0 \u00a0— Eq 3<\/p>\n

A+B+D = 2.5C\u00a0 –Eq 4<\/p>\n

Using Eq 1 and 2, we get A = 10<\/p>\n

Using Eq 1 and 4, we get C = 16<\/p>\n

Using Eq 1 and 3, we get B = 12<\/p>\n

On substituting the values of A, B, C in Eq 1, we get D = 18<\/p>\n

D is the correct answer.<\/p>\n
