A. 7 years
B. 10 years
C. 15 years
D. 20 years
Explanation:
P(1 + R/100)5 = 2P => (1 + R/100)5 = 2
Let P(1 + R/100)n = 8P
=> (1 + R/100)n = 8 = 23 = {(1 + R/100)5}3
=> (1 + R/100)n = (1 + R/100)15 => n = 15 Required time = 15 years.
A. Rs. 112
B. Rs. 129.60
C. Rs. 119.60
D. Rs. 115.20
Explanation:
Price after 1st discount = 80% of Rs. 160 = Rs. 128
Price after 2nd discount = 90% of Rs. 128 = Rs. 115.20
A. 4000
B. 3050
C. 4400
D. 4500
E. None of these
Let the number be a
Given, 15/100 * 30/100 * 50/100 * a = 90
=> 3/20 * 3/10 * 1/2 * a = 90
=> a = 10 * 20 * 10 * 2 = 4000.
A. Rs. 768
B. Rs. 968
C. Rs. 1960

A. 10 days
B. 14 days
C. 15 days
D. 9 days
A. 6 days
B. 10 days
C. 15 days
D. 20 days
Work done by X in 4 days = ( 1/20X 4 ) = 1/5 Remaining work = (1 – 1/5 ) = 4/5 (X + Y)’s 1 day’s work = 1/20 + 1/12 = 8/60 = 2/15 Now, 2/15 work is done by X and Y in 1 day. So, 4/5 work will be done by X and Y in 15/2 X 4/5 = 6 days Hence, total time taken = (6 + 4) days = 10 days.
