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

Let the original earnings of the people be $x$,$y$ and $z$.
\nTotal earning = $x+y+z$<\/p>\n

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

After taking out volume B, volume of solution = A-B<\/p>\n

Before mixing composition will not change. It will remain 2:3.<\/p>\n

Before mixing it with the other solution, Amount of milk = $\\frac{2}{(2+3)}\\times(A-B)$ =\u00a0$\\frac{2}{(5)}\\times(A-B)$<\/p>\n

Amount of water = $\\frac{3}{2+3}\\times(A-B)$ =\u00a0$\\frac{3}{5}\\times(A-B)$<\/p>\n

After replacing with B amount of the solution with ratio 4:5,<\/p>\n

Final ratio =\u00a0$\\frac{Amount\u00a0 of milk\u00a0 in\u00a0 first\u00a0 solution + Amount\u00a0 of\u00a0 milk\u00a0 added}{Amount\u00a0 of\u00a0 water\u00a0 in\u00a0 first\u00a0 solution + Amount\u00a0 \u00a0of\u00a0 water\u00a0 \u00a0added}$ = $\\frac{{\\frac{2}{5}\\times(A-B)+\\frac{4}{4+5}\\times{B}}}{{\\frac{3}{5}\\times(A-B)+\\frac{5}{4+5}\\times{B}}}$ = $\\frac{3}{4}$<\/p>\n

\u21d2 $({\\frac{2}{5}\\times(A-B)+\\frac{4}{9}\\times{B}}) \\times 4 = ({\\frac{3}{5}\\times(A-B)+\\frac{5}{9}\\times{B}}) \\times 3$<\/p>\n

\u21d2\u00a0\u00a0$\\frac{8}{5} \\times A +\u00a0\\frac{8}{45} \\times B = \\frac{9}{5} \\times A -\\frac{6}{45}\u00a0\u00a0\\times B$<\/p>\n

\u21d2 $\\frac{A}{B}$ = $\\frac{14}{9}$<\/p>\n

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

For 100 gms of alloy A :<\/p>\n

Silver = 40 gms, Gold = 100 – 40 = 60 gms<\/p>\n

For 100 gms of alloy B :<\/p>\n

Silver = 100 – 40 = 60 gms, Gold = 40 gms<\/p>\n

Let the two alloys be mixed in the ratio $k$ ie<\/p>\n

Volume of alloy A = $k \\times $ Volume of alloy B<\/p>\n

Thus, in the mixture,<\/p>\n

Volume of silver = 40k + 60 gms<\/p>\n

Volume of Gold = 60k + 40 gms<\/p>\n

Since we know that the mixture has 55% silver, this means that gold = 100 – 55 = 45%<\/p>\n

Thus, ratio of volume of silver and gold can be expressed as :<\/p>\n

$\\dfrac{40k+60}{60k+40} = \\dfrac{55}{45} $<\/p>\n

$ \\Rightarrow \\dfrac{2k+3}{3k+2} = \\dfrac{11}{9} $<\/p>\n

$ \\Rightarrow 18k + 27 = 33k + 22 $<\/p>\n

$ \\Rightarrow k = \\dfrac{5}{15} = \\dfrac{1}{3} $<\/p>\n

Thus the required ratio is 1:3<\/p>\n

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

Let \u2018100x\u2019 be the total number of students in the class.
\nNumber of girls in the class = 30x
\nNumber of boys in the class = 70x
\nTherefore, the average weight of the class = $\\dfrac{30x*30+70x*40}{100x}$ = 37 kg<\/p>\n

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

Let us assume that Ram’s initial investment = Rs. 100x. This amount will grow by 50% in three years, therefore the total amount that Ram will get after 3 years = 1.5*100x = Rs. 150x.
\nIt is given that his investment grew by 25%, 30% in the first year and second year respectively. Therefore, we can say that the total amount that Ram will get after 2 years = 100x*1.25*1.3 = Rs. 162.5x
\nHence, we can say that return on investment in the third year = $\\frac{150x – 162.50x}{162.50}\\times 100 = -7.69$ percent.<\/p>\n

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

Let \u2018x\u2019 kg be the average weight of the class before the stated operation.
\nLet \u2018n\u2019 be the number of students in the class.
\nTotal weight of the entire class before the operation = xn
\nTotal weight of the entire class after the operation = xn – 70 + 35 = xn – 35
\nHence, the average weight of the class
\n$\\Rightarrow$ $\\dfrac{xn – 35}{n} = x – 0.25$
\n$\\Rightarrow$ $35 = 0.25n$
\n$\\Rightarrow$ $n = 140$
\nTherefore, option D is the correct answer.<\/p>\n

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

Let the age of the youngest child be x years
\nThen, Ages of 4 children = x, x+4, x+8, x+12 years
\nGiven, $\\dfrac{x+x+4+x+8+x+12}{4} = 8$
\n\u21d2 $\\dfrac{4x+24}{4} = 8$
\n\u21d2 4x+24 = 32
\n\u21d2 4x = 8
\n\u21d2 x = 2
\nHence, The age of the youngest child = 2 years.<\/p>\n

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

let the ages of rahul and his wife be r and w respectively
\nGiven r+w=54
\nAge of son after 6 years will be 6-4=2 years
\nSo the average age of the family becomes (54+2+6+6)\/3=68\/3=22.66 years<\/p>\n

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

For fourth proportional we have 12:36::108:x
\nTherefore 12x=36*108
\nx=324<\/p>\n

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

a, b, c, d in continued proportion => ad = bc
\n16 * d = 24 * 96
\n=> d = 24 * 6 = 144<\/p>\n

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

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

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

Let the two numbers be 2x and 5x.
\nGiven, $(5x)^2 – (2x)^2 = 1029
\n\u21d2 $25x^2 – 4x^2 = 1029
\n\u21d2 $21x^2 = 1029
\n\u21d2 x^2 = 49
\n\u21d2 x = 7.
\nThen, the two numbers will be,
\n2x = 2*7 = 14
\n5x = 5*7 = 35
\nThen, Sum of two numbers = 14+35 = 49.<\/p>\n

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

Let the present age of son be \u2018s\u2019 and father\u2019s be \u2018f\u2019
\n(s-5)\/(f-5)=2:5
\n5s-25=2f-10
\n5s-2f=15
\n(s+9)\/(f+9)=8:13
\n13s+117=8f+72
\n8f-13s=45
\n20s-8f=60
\n7s=105
\ns=15
\nf=30
\n15 years from now their ages will be s=15+15 and f=30+15
\nRatio =30:45
\n=2:3<\/p>\n

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

let the incomes of M and N be 5x and 3x.
\nNow (5x)\/(3x+500)=3:2
\n10x=9x+1500
\nx=500
\nIncome of M =5*500
\n=2500<\/p>\n

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

let the amount received by each girl be x then amount receive by each boy becomes 2x.
\nTherefore 35*2x+45*x=4600
\n70x+45x=1100
\n115x=4600
\nx=40
\nSo each boy gets Rs 80 and each girl gets Rs 40
\nTotal amount received by boys is 35*80=2800<\/p>\n\n
