x is 20% more than z and y is 80% more than z. Find x:y.
A. 1:4
B. 3:4
C. 1:3
D. 2:3
x = z+(20/100)z = 1.2z y = 1.8z x:y = 1.2z:1.8z = 12:18 = 2:3
A. 1:4
B. 3:4
C. 1:3
D. 2:3
x = z+(20/100)z = 1.2z y = 1.8z x:y = 1.2z:1.8z = 12:18 = 2:3
A. Rs.1014
B. Rs.1140
C. Rs.999
D. Rs.1085
Explanation:
a2 = 3136 => a = 56
56 * 4 * 3 = 672 – 6 = 666 * 1.5 = 999
A. 1:2
B. 3:4
C. 2:5
D. 3:7
Explanation:
They should the profits in the ratio of their investments.
The ratio of the investments made by A and B =
6000 : 8000 => 3:4
A. 16 2/3%
B. 30%
C. 33 1/3%
D. 33 1/6%
A. 30 days
B. 25 days
C. 20 days
D. 15 days
Work done by P and Q in 1 day = 1/10
Work done by R in 1 day = 1/50
Work done by P, Q and R in 1 day = 1/10 + 1/50 = 6/50
But Work done by P in 1 day = Work done by Q and R in 1 day . Hence the above equation can be written as
Work done by P in 1 day × 2 = 6/50
=> Work done by P in 1 day = 3/50
=> Work done by Q and R in 1 day = 3/50
Hence work done by Q in 1 day = 3/50 – 1/50 = 2/50 = 1/25
So Q alone can do the work in 25 days
A. 8
B. 6
C. 4
D. 2
Explanation:
Let n erasers be available for a rupee
Reduced Price = (75/100 × 1) = Re ¾
¾ rupee fetch n erasers = 1 Rupee will fetch (n × 4/3) erasers
Therefore, 4n/3 = n +2 => 4n = 3n +6 => n =6
A. Rs. 1851
B. Rs. 1941
C. Rs. 1951
D. Rs. 1961
Explanation:
P = Rs. 15625, n = 9 months = 3 quarters, R = 16% p.a. per quarter.
Amount = [15625 * (1 + 4/100)3]
= (15625 * 26/25 * 26/25 * 26/25) = Rs. 17576 C.I. = 17576 – 15625 = Rs. 1951.
