10. Problem question: What is the monthly salary of my father?

Statements:

i) My father’s and mother’s salaries are in the ration 5:2 respectively

II) My mother’s salary is 40% of that of my father’s salary.

 Statement I alone is sufficient

 Statement II alone is sufficient
 Both statements put together are sufficient
 Both the statements even put together are not sufficient

Solution;

Both Statements put together are not sufficient

Given ratio of father and mother's salary as 5:2 respectively which implies mother's salary is 40% of
that of father and the same is given by statement (b)
So from both the statements it is not possible to find the father's exact salary and only the ratio is
known.
Hence both the statements put together are not sufficient.

Solution ;

Every Digit in the series sums to 9

9=9, (5+4)=9, 1+3+5=9, 2+5+2=9

So 4+0+5 (405) = 9

12. The world production of sugar has been reported to be very scarce as compared to the global sales
for four years. The demand for sugar is extremely high but the supply has been low for quite some time
now. This could be because of the awful weather and also because some chief sugar growers have
switched to high priced jute. The price of sugar has soared in response to the phenomena of the
demand supply disparity. The price of sugar now equals that of jute.

 Sugar production is profitable only when the price of sugar is as high as that that of jute
 The sugar growers who had shifted to the higher priced jute, will now move back to producing
sugar
 Demand for jute was higher than the demand for sugar, which made sugar growers shift their
production
 If there continues to be a shortfall in the production of sugar, the price of sugar may even
exceed that of jute

Solution ;

ans is d as above passage explains that sugar price now becomes equal to the jute as sugar grower
shifted to the to the jute if it will be continue then sugar price will increase

1. Ronald and Elan are working on an assignment. Ronald takes 6 hours to type 32 pages on a computer,
while Elan takes 5 hours to type 40 pages. How much time will they take, working together on two
different computers to type an assignment of 110 pages?

 7 hours 30 minutes
 8 hours
 8 hours 15 minutes
 8 hours 25 minutes
Solution ;
8 hours 15 minutes
Ronald’s 1 hour’s work =32/6=16/3 PAGES
Pages typed in 6 hrs. = 32, Pages typed in 1 hr =32/6
Elan’s 1 hour’s work = 8 pages
1 hour’s work of the both=16/3+8=40/3 PAGES
REQUIRED TIME= 110X3/40=33/4 HOURS = 8 HOURS 15MIN

2. What is the difference between the LCM and HCF of the numbers 20, 30 and 40?

 100
 110
 120
 130
Solution ;
20=2×2×5
30=2×3×5
40=2×2×2×5
LCM = 2×2×2×3×5= 120
HCF = 2×5=10
Difference= 120- 10 = 110

3. In a shooting competition, the probability that Rahul will hit the target is 5/7 and the probability that
sheela will hit the target 3/4. So what is the probability that both of them will hit the target?
  2/5
 1/5
 20/21
 15/28
Solution ;
Prob that Rahul hits the target : P(R) = 5/7
prob that Sheela hits the target : P(S) = 3/4

hitting the target by both of them is independent event.

prob that both hit the target = P(R) x P(S) = (5/7) x (3/4) = 15/28

7. When the price of a pair of shoes is decreased by 10%, the number of pairs sold increased by 20%.
What is the net effect on sales?

 8 % decrease
 10% decrease
 10% increase
 8% increase
Solution ;

Let the S.P be Rs 100 / shoe

Let 100 shoes are sold out
cost of shoe 10% decreased = ( 100- 10)= 90 Rs
20% Increase in sales therefore 120 shoes sold out
90*120=10800
100*100=10000
therefore (10800-10000)/100=800
=> 8% increase in sales

12. The correct relationship after eliminating x, y and z from x + y = a. y + z=b, z +x = c and x + y +x = m is:

 m = x + y +z
 2m = a +b + c
 m=x–y–z
 2m = - y – z
 None of the above
Solution ;
"As per the equation given,
(1) x+y = a
(2) y+z=b
(3) z+x = c
adding (1), (2) and (3)
x+ y + y + z + z + x = a + b + c
2x + 2y + 2z = a + b + c
2 (x + y + z) = a + b + c
Here, x + y + z = m
Hence, 2 * m = a + b + c
