    Statement II alone is not sufficient to give the answer.

    Statement I + Statement II:

    Principal = Rs. 9000, Amount = Rs. 11700, Time = 2 years, Interest = 11700 − 9000 = Rs. 2700

    Rate = 15%

    Data in Statement I and II is sufficient to give the answer.

    Statement III:

    So, statement III alone is sufficient to give the answer.

     

  • Question 6
    1 / -0.33

    Direction: Each of the question below consists of a question and three statements number I, II and III given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statement are sufficient to answer the question.

    A person marks the price of an article as Rs. y. What is the cost price of the article?

    Statements:

    I. The marked price of the article is 80% more than its cost price and the person sells it at 2x% discount.

    II. The person gains 8% if he sells the article at x% discount and his profit is Rs. 5y.

    III. The person loses 12% on selling the article at a discount of Rs. 217.

    Solution

    Given:

    Marked price of the article = Rs. y

    Formula Used: SP = CP ± Profit/Loss

    So, Statement I is sufficient to answer the question.

    Statement II:

    Gain = 8%

    Discount = 2x%

    Profit = Rs. 5y

    Now, Value of 8% = Rs. 5y

    So, Statement II is sufficient to answer the question.

    Statement III:

    Loss = 12%

    Discount = Rs. 217

    No other information is given in the question.

    So, Statement III is not sufficient to answer the question.

    ∴ The data in statement I alone or in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement III alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

     

  • Question 7
    1 / -0.33

    Direction: Each of the question below consists of a question and three statements number I, II and III given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statement are sufficient to answer the question.

    Find the sum of the present ages of Raj and Karan.

    Statements:

    I. Three years ago, The ratio of ages of Raj and Karan was 5 : 3.

    II. The difference between their present ages is 16 years.

    III. 5 years hence, the ratio of the ages of Raj and Karan will be 3 : 2.

    Solution

    From statement I, 3 years ago, the ratio of ages = 5 : 3

    From statement II, Difference between their present ages = 16 years

    From statement III, 5 years hence, the ratio of ages = 3 : 2

    From statements I and II together,

    Let the ages of Raj and Karan, 3 years ago be 5x and 3x respectively.

    Then, (5x + 3) – (3x + 3) = 16

    ⇒ 2x = 16

    ⇒ x = 8

    So, present age of Raj = 5x+ 3

    = 5 × 8 + 3 = 43 years

    and present age of Karan = 3x + 3

    = 3 × 8 + 3 = 27 years

    Now, sum of their ages = (43 + 27) years = 70 years

    From statement I and III together,

    Let the ages of Raj and Karan, 3 years ago be 5x and 3x respectively.

    Then, after 5 years the ration will be:

    ⇒ 10x + 16 = 9x + 24

    ⇒ x = 8

    So, present age of Raj = 5x+ 3

    = 5 × 8 + 3 = 43 years

    and present age of Karan = 3x + 3

    = 3 × 8 + 3 = 27 years

    Now, sum of their ages = (43 + 27) years = 70 years

    From statements II and III together,

    Let the ages of Raj and Karan 5 years hence be 3x and 2x respectively.

    Then, (3x – 5) – (2x – 5) = 16

    ⇒ x = 16

    So, present age of Raj = 3x – 5

    = 3 × 16 – 5 = 43 years

    and present age of Karan = 2x – 5

    = 2 × 16 – 5 = 27 years

    Now, sum of their ages = (43 + 27) years = 70 years

    ∴ Any two of the three statements are sufficient to answer the question.

     

  • Question 8
    1 / -0.33

    Direction: Each of the question below consists of a question and three statements number I, II and III given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statement are sufficient to answer the question.

    Find the average marks obtained by Vikash in three subjects.

    Statements:

    I. Marks obtained by Vikash in English is 80% of that in Science.

    II. Marks obtained by him in English, Hindi and Science are in the ratio 4 : 3 : 5.

    III. Marks obtained by him in Science is 40 more than that in Hindi.

    Solution

    Given:

    From statement I:

    Marks in English = 80% of marks in Science

    From statement II:

    Ratio of marks in English, Hindi and Science = 4 : 3 : 5

    From statement III:

    Marks obtained in Science = Marks in Hindi + 40

    Formula:

    From statements II and III together:

    Let the marks obtained by Vikash in Hindi be 3x.

    Then, marks obtained in English = 4x

    and marks obtained in Science = 5x

    So, 5x – 3x  = 40

    ⇒ 2x = 40

    ⇒ x = 20

    Marks obtained in English = 4 × 20 = 80

    Marks obtained in Hindi = 3 × 20 = 60

    and marks obtained in Science = 5 × 20 = 100

    Now, Total marks obtained 3 subjects = 80 + 60 + 100 = 240 marks

    ∴ Both statements II and III are required to answer the question.

     

  • Question 9
    1 / -0.33

    Find the principal amount.

    Statements:

    I. The compound interest obtained when a sum is invested at 25% rate for 2 years is Rs. 250 more than the simple interest obtained when the same amount is invested at a 5% rate for 1 year.

    II. A sum gets two more than its triple when it is invested at 3.5% rate compounded annually.

    III. The difference of amount on a sum invested at 8% rate compounded annually and semi-annually is Rs. 279.

    Solution

    Statement I:

    Let the principal amount be P.

    Since we have 1 equation 2 variables.

    So it cannot be solved.

    So, statement II is not sufficient to answer the question.

    Statement III:

    Since we have 1 equation 2 variables.

    So it cannot be solved.

    So, statement III is not sufficient to answer the question.

    ∴ The data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II and statement III alone are not sufficient to answer the question.

    II. The height of the cylinder is 21 cm and the height of the cone is 7 cm less than that of the cylinder.

    III. The sum of their heights is 35 cm.

    Solution

    From statement I:

    Radius of cylinder : radius of cone = 1 : 2

    From statement II:

    Height of cylinder = 21 cm

    and height of cone = height of cylinder – 7 cm

    From statement III:

    Sum of their heights = 35 cm

    Formula:

    ∴ Both statements I and II are required to answer the question.
