\n7d = m
\n19(d-4) = m-4
\n=> 19d – 76 = 7d – 4
\n=> 12d = 72
\n=> d = 6 and m = 42
\nMother’s age four years from now will be 42 + 4 = 46<\/p>\n
\nSarita’s present age is x.
\nNow, 8 years hence,
\n(2x + 8)\/(x +8) = 22\/13
\n26x + 104 = 22x + 176
\nx = 18
\nHence, Kavita’s age = 18*2 = 36 years.
\nOption D is correct option.<\/p>\n
\nNow, as per given conditions,
\n(x\/y) = (6\/5) i.e 5x=6y
\nafter 9 years,
\n(x+9)\/(y+9) = 9\/8 i.e 8x-9y=9
\nAfter solving we get x = 18 and y = 15.
\nDifferences in the ages = 18-15=3
\nHence, option D is correct.<\/p>\n
\nSo, monthly spend on food and transport is 0.45S
\nAmount remaining is S-0.45S = 0.55S
\nAmount spent on books is 20% of 0.55S = 0.11S
\nAmount remaining is 0.55S – 0.11S = 0.44S
\nAmount spent on other expenses is 50% of 0.44S = 0.22S
\nSo, amount remaining is 0.44S – 0.22S = 0.22S
\n0.22S = 880
\nHence, S = 880\/0.22 = 4000
\nAs this is not given in the options, the correct answer is option (e)<\/p>\n
\nTheir ages four years ago are F-4 and F-30.
\nThe ratio of these ages is 19:6
\nTherefore, (F-4)\/(F-30) = 19\/6
\nOr, 6F – 24 = 19F – 570
\nSo, 13F = 546
\nOr, F = 42 and the age of the son is 42-26 = 16
\nHence, the required ratio is 42:16 = 21:8<\/p>\n
\nSo, 0.65X – 0.36X = 58
\nOr, 0.29X = 58 and X = 200
\nHence, 23% of X equals 0.23*200 = 46<\/p>\n
\n1 man can do a work in 4*2 = 8 days
\n1 woman can do the same work in 4*4 = 16 days
\n1 child can do the same work in 4*5 = 20 days
\n=> 1 man = 2.5 child and 1.25 woman = 0.8 child
\n2 men + 4 women + 10 children = 5 + 5 + 10 = 20 children
\n1 child takes 20 days to complete a work => 20 children will take 1 day to complete the same work<\/p>\n
\nThen, pipes B and C will take x\/2 and x\/4 hours respectively to fill the tank.
\n1\/x+2\/x+4\/x=1\/5\u21d47\/x=1\/5 \u21d4x=35hrs<\/p>\n
\nLet the cost price of the article be X.
\nSo, profit when it is sold for Rs. 625 = 625 – X
\nLoss made when it is sold for Rs. 435 = X – 435
\nAs they are equal, it implies that 625 – X = X – 435
\nOr, 2X = 625 + 435 = 1060
\nHence, X = 530<\/p>\n
\nProfit = .15CP
\nProfit = Selling Price – CP
\n1.15 CP = 22,103
\nCP = 19,220
\nNow to obtain 25% profit, we have to sell them at 1.25 CP = 1.25*19220 = 24,025.<\/p>\n
