Answers:

1. (3)
Required ratio = 18% of 256000 / 10% of 32000  = 72 : 5

2. (3)
Required percentage = (15 + 10)/20 * 100 = 125%

3. (2)
Required difference = (16 – 10)% of 32000 = 1920

4. (3)
The difference between number of students selected to number of students appeared in entrance exam in 2007
= 12 % of 256000 – 10% of 32000 = 27520
Similarly calculating for all years, the maximum difference will be for 2010.

5. (4)
Required percentage = 32000/256000 = 12.5%

6. (1)
Required percentage =  14% of 32000/15% of 256000 * 100 = 11.67

7. (5)
Required number = (20 + 16)% of 32000 = 11520

8. (2)
Let the investment be x. Now
12.5% of x = 5
x = 40 Lakh

9. (4)
Required Income = (100 +25)/25 = 82 Lakhs

10. (1)
Required Ratio = (100+10) : (100 + 15) = 22 : 23

11. (3)
Let the amount invested by company P and Q be 5x and 3x respectively.
5x + 3x = 24
x = 3.   5x = 15  and  3x = 9
Total profit earned by P and Q in February = 10% of 15 + 15% of 9 = 2.85 Lakh.

12. (3)
Let the amount invested by company P in May be x. Then
125% of 18 = 112.5% of x
x = 20 Lakh

13. (4)
Required ratio = 3*(100+10)/2*(100+17.5) = 66 : 47

14. (5)
Since the investment is not given, we cannot find the profit of two companies.

15. (2)
Average profit in June = (7.5% of 36 + 20%of 36)/2= 4.95 Lakh

Length of the rectangle = 112/8 = 14 cm, so  perimeter= 44 cm,

A.8 

B.10

C.12 

D.Cannot be determined

E.None of these

Answers:

1. (c) 
Amount = Rs. [200 X (1+ 5/100)^3 + 200(1 +( 5/100))^2  + 200(1 + 5/100)                               
 = Rs. [200 X (21/20) X (21/20) X (21/20)  +200 X (21/20) X (21/20) + 200 X 21/20 ].
 = Rs. [200 X (21/20)[(21/20) X (21/20)  + (21/20) +1]
 = Rs. 662.02

2.C
Principal= Rs.16,000;
Time=9 months = 3 quarters;
Rate = 20%, it will be 20/4 = 5%
So lets solve this question now
Amount=16000(1+5/100)^3=18522
C.I=18522-16000=2522

3.D
Let Rate will be R
1200(1+R/100)^2=134832/100
(1+R/100)^2=134832/120000
(1+R/100)^2=11236/10000
(1+R/100)=106/100
R=6%

4.A
As per question we need something like following
P(1+R/100)^^n>2P
(1+20/100)^n>2
(6/5)^n>2
6/5�6/5�6/5�6/5>2
So answer is 4 years

5.B
C.I.=(4000�(1+10/100)^2-4000)
=4000*11/10*11/10-4000=840
So S.I. = 840/2=420
So Sum = (S.I.*100)/(R*T)
=(420*100)/(3*8)
=Rs1750

6.C
S.I.=(1000*10*4)/100=400
C.I.=[1000(1+10/100)^4-1000]=464.10
So difference between simple interest and compound interest will be
464.10 - 400 = 64.10

7.B

8.D
Difference in CI and SI for 2 years=Rs(696.30-660)=Rs 36.30
SI for one year = Rs 330.
therefore SI on Rs 330 for 1 year = Rs 36.30
therefore,Rate= (100*36.30/330*1)% = 11%

9.A

10.A
C.I.-S.I.=P(R/100)*(R/100)
96=15000(R/100)(R/100)
R*R=960/15=64
R=8

Answers:

Answers:

1.B
There are two series here
2, 10, 18, 26, ... (Increase by 8)
7, 22, 37, ... (Increase by 15)
Hence, next term is 37+15 = 52

2.C
Go on dividing by 6 to the next number

3.D
12
12 × 3 + 2 = 38
38 × 3 + 2 = 116
116 × 3 + 2 = 350
350 × 3 + 2 = 1052
1052 × 3 + 2 = 3158

4.A
46080 /12 = 3840
3840 /10 = 384
384 /8 = 48
48 /6 = 8
8/4 = 2
2 /2 = 1

5.C
28=23+5
57=29+28
88=31+57
125=37+88
166=41+125

6.D
The differences between two successive terms from the beginning are 7, 5, 7, 5, 7, 5. So, 40 is wrong.

7.B
In this question, if you start from the beginning, firstly the difference is 31, then the difference is 17, then the difference is 8.

 So there is no logic. If you start backwards,you can see that firstly, 1 is added, then 2 is added, then 4 is added, then 8,16 and 32 should have been added. 

So you have got the right clue. So 15 + 32 the first number should be 47 and afterwards, the series becomes + 16, + 8, + 4and so on.

8.C
3-2=1
12-3=9
37-12=25
86-37=49
166-86=80(this must be 81=167-86=81)
so wrong number in the sequence is 166
difference between two sucessive numbers sequence would be
1,9,25,49,81,121(square of 1,3,5,7,9,11)

9.E
2nd term = (1st term) * 1 + 1 = 15 *1 + 1 = 16.
3rd term = (2nd term) * 2 + 2 = 16 * 2 + 2 = 34
4th term = (3th term) *3 + 3 = 34 * 3 + 3 = 105
5th term = (4th term) * 4 + 4 = 105 * 4 + 4 = 424
6th term = (5th term) * 5 + 5 = 424 * 5 + 5 = 2125
6th term should 2125 instead of 2124.

10.C

Go on multiplying the number by 2 and adding 1 to it to get the next number.So, 27 is wrong.
