An order was placed for the supply of a carper whose length and breadth were in the ratio of 3 : 2. Subsequently, the dimensions of the carpet were altered such that its length and breadth were in the ratio 7 : 3 but were was no change in its parameter. Find the ratio of the areas of the carpets in both the cases.

An order was placed for the supply of a carper whose length and breadth were in the ratio of 3 : 2. Subsequently, the dimensions of the carpet were altered such that its length and breadth were in the ratio 7 : 3 but were was no change in its parameter. Find the ratio of the areas of the carpets in both the cases.

A. 4 : 3
B. 8 : 7
C. 4 : 1
D. 6 : 5
Let the length and breadth of the carpet in the first case be 3x units and 2x units respectively.
Let the dimensions of the carpet in the second case be 7y, 3y units respectively.
From the data,.
2(3x + 2x) = 2(7y + 3y)
=> 5x = 10y
=> x = 2y
Required ratio of the areas of the carpet in both the cases
= 3x * 2x : 7y : 3y
= 6×2 : 21y2
= 6 * (2y)2 : 21y2
= 6 * 4y2 : 21y2
= 8 : 7

Three pipes of same capacity can fill a tank in 8 hours. If there are only two pipes of same capacity, the tank can be filled in___________?

Three pipes of same capacity can fill a tank in 8 hours. If there are only two pipes of same capacity, the tank can be filled in___________?

A. 17 hours
B. 12 hours
C. 16 hours
D. 24 hours
Explanation:
The part of the tank filled by three pipes in one hour = 1/8
=> The part of the tank filled by two pipes in 1 hour = 2/3 * 1/8 = 1/12.
The tank can be filled in 12 hours.

A dishonest dealer claims to sell his goods at the cost price but uses a false weight of 900 gm for 1 kg what is his gain percent?

A. 13 %
B. 11 1/9 %
C. 11.25 %
D. 12 1/9 %
Explanation:
Let the C.P of the article be Rs 1 per gram
C.P of 900gm = Rs 900,
S.P of 1000gm = Rs 1000
Gain % = (100/900 × 100)% = 100/9 % = 11 1/9 %
