15. B

1.(B) Let the original sum be Rs. x.
Sum of the Ratios = 3 + 5 + 9 + 13 = 30
C's share = Rs. 9x/30 = Rs. 3x/10
A's share = Rs. 3x/30 = Rs. x/10
According to the question,
3x/10 - x/10 = 2412
2x/10 = 2412
x = 2412 * 5 = Rs 12060
Amount received by B and D together
=  Rs. (((5+13))/30  ×12060)
= 7236

2.(A) Total age of remaining 40 girls
=  (80 * 20 - 20 * 22 - 20 * 24) years
= (1600 - 440 - 480) years
= 680 years
Required average age = 680/40 = 17 years

3.(C) Let Ms. Pooja's monthly salary be Rs. x
According to the question,
13% of x = Rs. 8554
= x = Rs.  (8554 * 100)/13 = Rs. 65800
Total monthly investment in percentage
= 13 + 23 + 8 = 44
Total montly investment = 44% of Rs. 65800
= (44 * 65800)/100
= Rs. 28952
Total annul investment = Rs.  (12 * 28952)
= Rs. 347424

4. (D) Let the CP of the article be Rs. x.
According to the question,
878 - x = x - 636
= 2x = 878 + 636 = 1514
x = 1514/2 = Rs. 757

5. (C) Number of sweets received by each student
= 15% of 240
= 15 * 240/100 = 36
Total number of sweets = 240 * 36 = 8640

6. (B) Let the total amount be Rs. x
The amount spent = 100 - 28 = 72%
72% of x = Rs. (45760 + 27896)
= 72 * x /100 = 73656
x = 73656 * 100/72 = Rs. 102300.

7.(E) Let the present ages of Khushi and Jagriti be 5x and 8x years respectively.
After 8 years,
5x + 8/8x + 8 = 3/4
= 24x + 24 = 20x + 32
= 4x = 32 - 24 = 8
x = 8/4 = 2
Required difference = (8x - 5x) years
= 3x = 3 * 2 = 6 years

8. (D) Required difference = 3/5 * 895 - 6/11 * 506
= 537 - 276 = 261

9. (C) (Sumit + Krishna + Rishabh)'s age
= 43 * 3 = 129 years .........................(i)
(Sumit + Rishabh + Rohit)'s age
= 3 * 49 = 147 years  .........................(ii)
By equation (i) - (ii), we have,
Krishan's age -  Rohit's age = 129 - 147 = -18
Krishna's age = 54 - 18 = 36 years

10. (A) Let the principal be Rs. P.
According to the question,
CI = P [(1+ R/100)^T- 1]
6500.52 = P [(1+ 15/100)^3- 1]
= 6500.52 = P [1.520875 -1]
P = 6500.52/0.520875 = Rs. 12480

11. (A) After filling ‘P’ liter still r % empty. So (100-r)% = P liter ;
Let x liter require to fill remain tank.
So full capacity of tank = 100P/(100-r)
 So x= r% of capacity = 100P/(100-r) * r/100 = Pr/(100-r)

12. (A) P(r/100)^2= 20 –(1)
P(r/100)^2 ×(300+r)/100 =61     -(2)
Putting value from eqn 1
(300+r)/100 =61/20
On solving r = 5%
After put value in eqn(1) P= 8000

13. (A) Go through statements, it’s clear that average of probable weight of Utkarsh  is 67 kg.

14. (E) Part filled by A+B+C in 3 min = 3(1/20+1/30+1/10) = 11/20
Part filled by C  in 10 min = 3/10
Required ratio = 3/10:11/20 = 6:11
So the solution R in the liquid in the tank after 3 minutes = 6/11


15. (B) A and B together 1 day work =1/15+1/10 =5/30=1/6
 Both work for 2 day  = 1/3
Remain work =2/3
Left work done in (2/3) ÷ (1/15) =10 days
So total day = 10+2 = 12 days
