Question 2
A scored 25% marks and failed by 10 marks. B scored 35% marks and obtained 10 marks more than those required to pass. Then find the pass marks.
Show Answer
Solution
Let the maximum marks be ‘x’
Then, Pass marks = 25% of x + 10 = 35% of x - 10
⇒ 10% of x = 20
⇒ x = 200
Therefore, Pass marks = 25% of 200+10 = 50+10 = 60

Question 3
Find the area of the square inscribed inside a circle, which is in turn is inscribed inside an equilateral triangle of side $$3\sqrt{3}$$ cm.
Show Answer
Solution
Given, the side length of the triangle= $$3\sqrt{3}$$ cm.
Its altitude = $$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\times3\sqrt{3}=\frac{9}{2}$$ cm.
Its inradius= $$\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{9}{2}=\ \frac{3}{2}\ \ $$ cm.
So, the circle inside the triangle has a radius of length 3/2 cm.
The diameter of the circle is the diagonal of the square= 3 cm.
.'. Side length of the square becomes$$\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}}$$ cm.
.'. Area of the square= $$\left(\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^2$$= 9/2 sq. cms.

Question 4
A certain sum of money invested at a certain rate of simple interest triples itself in 30 years. In how many years does this sum become six times?
Show Answer
Solution
Let the amount of money be P.
Since it triples itself, the simple interest = 3P - P = 2P.
Now, 2P = P(30)r
r = 2/30
If sum becomes 6 times, them simple interest = 6P - P = 5P
Now, 5P = P(t)(2/30)
t = 75 years.

Question 5
The profit obtained on selling a laptop is 12%. If the cost price of the laptop increases by 10% and a discount of 5% is offered, find the new profit/loss percentage.
Show Answer
Solution
Let the cost price of the laptop be 100.
So, initial selling price of the laptop = 112
New cost price of the laptop = 110
New selling price of the laptop = (95/100)*112 = Rs 106.4
So, loss percentage = (110 - 106.4)/110 * 100% = 3.27%
correct answer:-
3
Question 6
A trader sells oil at a loss of 1% but weighs 900 grams in place of a kg. What is his net loss/gain?
Show Answer
Solution
Let the cost price of 1 kilo gram oil be Rs. 1000.
As, the trader sells 900 grams oil for Rs. 990, the profit percentage is (990-900)/900 = 10%

1
Question 9
The number of boys and girls in particular class is 45 and 50 respectively. What is the approximate average weight of the class if the average weight of the boys is 40 kg and the average weight of girls is 32 kg?
Show Answer
Solution
Total weight of boys = 45 * 40 = 1800 kg
Total weight of girls = 50*32 = 1600 kg
Total weight of the class = 1600 + 1800 = 3400 kg
Average weight of the class = $$\frac{total weight}{total students}$$ = $$\frac{3400}{45+50}$$ = 35.79 = 35.8 kg approx.
Hence, option B is the right answer.
correct answer:-
2
Question 10
Arrange the following numbers with negative fractional exponents in increasing order:
(A) $$2^{-1/3}$$
(B) $$3^{-1/2}$$
(C) $$5^{-1/4}$$
(D) $$6^{-1/6}$$
Show Answer
Solution
Convert to positive exponents (reciprocals) and find their relative order. The order for the negative exponents will be the reverse of the order for the positive exponents.
Let $$X = \{2^{-1/3}, 3^{-1/2}, 5^{-1/4}, 6^{-1/6}\}$$ and $$Y = \{2^{1/3}, 3^{1/2}, 5^{1/4}, 6^{1/6}\}$$.
We compare $$Y$$ by raising each to the LCM of the denominators (3, 2, 4, 6), which is 12.
Given that 'a' is a natural number and the number 72981a2 is exactly divisible by 11, what is the value of 'a'?
Show Answer
Solution
For the number to be divisible by 11, the difference in the sums of the alternating digits should be divisible by 11.
In this case, the difference is (2+1+9+7) - (a+8+2) = 9 - a
This should be divisible by 11. As 'a' is a natural number, it means that a=9

Question 12
PQRS is a square. Point A is on the side PQ such that AP = 4.5 cm. If it is known that the area of triangle AQR is 50 $$cm^2$$, what is the area of the square PQRS?
Show Answer
Solution
The figure will be as shown below.
Let the side of the square be ‘x’
It is known that AP = 4.5 cm
So AQ = (x-4.5) cm
The area of the triangle AQR will be
$$\frac{1}{2}*x*(x-4.5)$$
This can be equated to 50 $$cm^2$$
So we get,
$$x(x-4.5)=100$$
$$=>2x^2-9x-200=0$$
$$=>(2x-25)(x+8)=0$$
As $$x$$ cannot be negative it has to be 12.5 cm
Area of the square will be = 12.5*12.5 = 156.25 $$cm^2$$
Hence Option C.
correct answer:-

Question 13
Average age of 4 persons P, Q, R, S is 52 years. Who is the oldest person among them
Statement 1:Age of Q is 103 years
Statement 2:Ages of P, Q, R, S are all distinct natural numbers.
Show Answer
Solution
Using Statement 1,
P+Q+R+S = 52*4 = 208
Q = 103 years
P+R+S = 208-103 = 105
The age of any of them can be 104, 1, 0
But using statement 2 we know that all the ages are natural numbers and are distinct. So the solution of 103, 104, 1, 0 is not valid. Hence Q is the oldest among them.
correct answer:-
3
Question 14
Arrange the following in descending order:
(A) $$2^{3^2}$$
(B) $$\left(2^3\right)^2$$
(C) $$3^{3^2}$$

(A): $$2^{3^2}$$ = $$2^9=512$$
(B): $$\left(2^3\right)^2=2^6=64$$
(C): $$3^{3^2}=3^9=27^3=19683$$
(D): $$\left(3^2\right)^3=3^6=729$$
So, the correct order is: $$(C)>(D)>(A)>(B)$$
correct answer:-

Question 15
If $$2^{m-1} + 2^{m+1} = 640$$, then what is the value of ‘m’?
A and B start running along a straight road 10km apart from the opposite ends. B’s speed is twice is fast as A’s. Whenever A and B meet, B reverses his direction. On reaching his starting position, B again reverses direction and starts running towards A.
Question 16
What is the distance covered by B by the time they meet for the second time?
Show Answer
Solution
We know that A and B's speeds are in the ratio of 1:2. This means that B covers twice the distance covered by A. So when they meet for the first time A would have covered 10*$$\frac{1}{3}$$ and B would have covered 10*$$\frac{2}{3}$$. Now, B will reverse his direction while A will continue to travel in the same direction.
Since B is faster than A, he will reach his start point before A, so the distance he would have traveled is 10*$$\frac{2}{3}$$ again. In the same time, A would travel 10*$$\frac{1}{3}$$. So, the total distance covered by A is 10*$$\frac{1}{3}$$+10*$$\frac{1}{3}$$=10*$$\frac{2}{3}$$
Remaining distance=10*$$\frac{1}{3}$$
Of this distance A will travel 1/3rd while B will travel 2/3rd of it before they meet for the second time.
So, the total distance traveled by B is 10*$$\frac{2}{3}$$+10*$$\frac{2}{3}$$+10*$$\frac{1}{3}$$*$$\frac{2}{3}$$
=$$\frac{140}{9}$$
correct answer:-
2
Instruction for set :
A and B start running along a straight road 10km apart from the opposite ends. B’s speed is twice is fast as A’s. Whenever A and B meet, B reverses his direction. On reaching his starting position, B again reverses direction and starts running towards A.
Question 17
If A’s speed is 5kmph, what is the distance covered by B by the time A reaches the other end?
Show Answer
Solution
In this case, the time taken by A to reach other end is 10km/5kmph = 2hrs. B’s speed= 2*5= 10kmph. Hence, in two hours B would have run = 2*10kmph = 20km

Also, from the equation, sum of roots = -b/a = $$\beta\ $$
One spherical ball is placed over a hollow cylindrical box. The radius of the sphere is 14 cm, while the cylinder is of radius 7 cm. If the height of the cylinder is 10 cm, what is the total height of the figure?
Show Answer
Solution
The figure can be represented as :
The triangle formed is an equilateral triangle with the side of length 14cm
The height of an equilateral triangle= $$\frac{\sqrt{\ 3}}{2}\cdot a$$
=$$\frac{\sqrt{\ 3}}{2}\cdot 14$$
= $$7\sqrt{\ 3}$$
Height = 10+ $$7\sqrt{\ 3}$$+ 14 cm
= 24+$$7\sqrt{\ 3}$$
Option A is the correct answer.

Statement 1:A total of 78 people are there in a row.
Statement 2:Another person named Rahul is standing at the 27th position from back and the no. of people between Raj and Rahul is 9.
Show Answer
Solution
Using Statement 1,we come to know there are 78 people in total in a queue.
Using statement 2,we come to know Rahul is standing at the 27th position from back and the no. of people between Raj and Rahul is 9. So Rahul is standing at 27th position from the back. Raj can be standing at either 37th or 17th position.We can't infer the exact position of Raj.
correct answer:-
4
Question 21
What is remainder when x is divided by 7?
Statement 1: the remainder when x is divided by 14 is 10
Statement 2: The remainder when x is divided by 28 is 24
Show Answer
Solution
Statement 1 implies x = 14k + 10 which implies x = 7(2k+1) + 3
Statement 2 implies x = 28r + 24 which implies x = 7(4r+3) + 3
Hence, the question can be answered using either of the two statements alone.

Question 22
7 men can do a piece of work in 1 day. Also, 2 women and 9 boys can do the same piece of work in 1 day. The efficiency of a woman is 125% the efficiency of a man. In how many days can 2 men, 1 woman and 1 boy complete the piece of work if the men work at 125% of their efficiency, the woman works at 50% of her efficiency and the boy works at 75% of his efficiency?
Show Answer
Solution
2w + 9b = 7m
1w = 1.25m
Hence, 2.5m + 9b = 7m
2b = 1m
1b = 0.5m
In one day 1 man does $$\frac{1}{7}$$ work.
Hence, in one day, 1 woman does $$\frac{1.25}{7}$$ work
And, in one day, 1 child does $$\frac{1}{14}$$ work.
Considering the efficiency of each, in one day, total amount of work done = $$\frac{2}{7}\times\ 1.25\ +\ \frac{1.25}{7}\times\ 0.5+\frac{0.75}{14}=\frac{2.5}{7}+\frac{0.625}{7}+\frac{0.375}{7}=\frac{3.5}{7}=\frac{1}{2}$$
Therefore, total time needed is 2 days.

Question 23
When a survey was conducted in Delhi it was seen that 55% of the people watch NDTV news and 60% people watch CNN news.What is the minimum percent people that watch both?
Show Answer
Solution
We know $$n(A\cup B) = n(A) + n(B) -n (A\cap B)$$
thus, $$n(N\cup C) = n(N) + n(C) - n(N\cap C)$$
$$n(N\cap C) = n(N) + n(C) - n(N\cup C)$$
thus the percent of people in both will decrease when $$n(N\cup C)$$ is maximum which is 100%
=> min $$n(N\cap C)$$ = 55% + 60% - 100% = 15%
correct answer:-

Show Answer
Solution
Assuming the profit percentage is p.
Then cost price of the car = $$\ \dfrac{\ 18}{1+\dfrac{\ p}{100}}$$
Similarly, the cost price of bike = $$\ \dfrac{\ 2}{1-\dfrac{\ p}{100}}$$
In a 100 m race, Atul finishes first. He is ahead of Bala by 10 m and ahead of Chirag by 19 m. In another race of the same distance, Bala defeats Dheeraj by 23.5 m. By what distance does Chirag defeat Dheeraj in the 100 m race?
Show Answer
Solution
We know that $$Time=\dfrac{Dist}{Speed}$$
Let Atul's speed be A, Bala's speed be B, Chirag's speed be C and Dheeraj's speed be D.
Atul beats Bala by 10m. This means that by the time Atul covers 100m, Bala only covers 90. Therefore -
-> $$\dfrac{100}{A}=\dfrac{90}{B}\rightarrow1$$
Atul beats Chirag by 19m. This means that by the time Atul covers 100m, Chirag only covers 81m. Therefore -
This means that by the time Chirag covers 100m, Dheeraj covers only 85m. Therefore, Chirag beat Dheeraj by 15m.

Question 26
$$\alpha\ $$ and $$\beta\ $$ are root of the equation $$4x^2+7x-13=0$$. What will be the quadratic equation which has $$\frac{1}{\alpha\ +\beta\ }\ $$ and $$\frac{1}{\alpha\ \beta\ }\ $$ as its roots.
Show Answer
Solution
$$\alpha\ $$ and $$\beta\ $$ are root of the equation $$4x^2+7x-13=0$$
$$\frac{1}{\alpha\ +\beta\ }=\ -\frac{4}{7}$$ and $$\frac{1}{\alpha\ \beta\ }=\ -\frac{4}{13}$$
Quadratic eqn with roots $$-\frac{4}{7}\ \&-\frac{4}{13}$$ can be written as $$a\left(x+\frac{4}{7}\right)\left(x+\frac{4}{13}\right)$$
On expanding the equation becomes $$a\left(x^2+\frac{80x}{91}+\frac{16}{91}\right)$$
taking a=91, we get the equation to be $$91x^2+80x+16$$
