  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    Reena took a loan of Rs. 1200 with simple interest for as many years as the rate of interest. If she paid Rs. 432 as interest at the end of the loan period, what was the rate of interest?

    Solution

    Let rate \(= R \%\) and time \(= R\) years.

    Then, \(\left(\frac{1200 \times R \times R}{100}\right)=432\)

    \(\Rightarrow 12 R ^{2}=432\)

    \(\Rightarrow R ^{2}=36\)

    \(\Rightarrow R =6\)
    Hence, the correct option is (B).

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    In a two-digit number, the digit at the unit’s place is 1 less than twice the digit at the ten’s place. If the digits at unit’s and ten’s place are interchanged, the difference between the new and the original number is less than the original number by 20. The original number is:

    Solution

    Let unit’s digit be x and ten’s digit by y

    ∴ Number formed = 10y + x …(i)

    According to the question, 

    2y – 1 = x …(ii) 

    Also, (New number) – (Original number) 

    = Original number – 20 

    (10x + y) – (10y + x) = (10y + x) – 20 

    10x + y – 10y – x = 10y + x – 20 

    9x – 9y = 10y + x – 20 …(iii) 

    On substituting the value of x = 2y – 1 from equation (i), we get 

    9 (2y – 1) – 9y = 10y + 2y – 1 – 20

    = 18y – 9 – 9y = 10y + 2y – 1 – 20 

    = 3y = 12 

    ∴ y = 4 

    On putting the value of y in equation (ii), we get 

    x = 2 × 4 – 1 

    = 8 – 1 = 7 

    ∴ Required number 

    = 10y + x

    = 10 × 4 + 7 

    = 47

    Hence, the correct option is (C).

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    Sum of three numbers a, b and c is 10 (a + b + c = 10). If a, b and c are three positive integers, then what is their maximum product (a × b × c)?

    Solution

    The possible combinations are (5,3,2) (2,4,4),(3,3,4),(2, 2, 6), (7,2,1),(8,1,1)

    Product of the combinations 

    ⇒ 5 × 3 × 2 = 30

    ⇒ 2 × 4 × 4 = 32

    ⇒ 4 × 3 × 3 = 36

    ⇒ 2 × 2 × 6 = 24

    ⇒ 7 × 2 × 1 = 14

    ⇒ 8 × 1 × 1 = 8

     36 is the maximum product among the combinations.

    ∴ 36 is the maximum product of (a × b × c).

    Hence, the correct option is (C).

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    Sonali could not decide between a discount of 30% or two successive discounts of 25% and 5%, both given on shopping of Rs. 2000. What is the difference between both the discounts?

    Solution

    \(30 \%\) discount on \(2000=30 \%\) of \(2000=\) Rs. 600

    \(25 \%\) discount on \(2000=25 \%\) of \(2000=\) Rs. 500

    Remaining amount \(=2000-500=\) Rs. 1500

    Second discount of \(5 \%=5 \%\) of \(1500=\) Rs. 75

    Total discount \(=500+75=\) Rs. 575

    So difference in discounts \(=\) Rs. \(600-\) Rs. \(575=\) Rs. 25
    Hence, the correct option is (B).

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    By selling cloth at Rs. \(9\) per meter, a shopkeeper loses \(10\%\). Find the rate at which it should be sold so as to earn a profit of \(15\%\)?

    Solution

    According to the question:

    By selling cloth at Rs. \(9\) per meter, a shopkeeper loses \(10 \%\) 

    Therefore, Selling Price\(=90 \%\) of Cost Price

    \(\Rightarrow\) Cost Price\(=\frac{(9 \times 100)}{90}\)

    \(\Rightarrow\) Cost Price \(=\) \(10\) Rs. per meter 

    To earn a profit of \(15 \%\), 

    Selling Price \(=115 \%\) of \(10\) 

    \(\Rightarrow\) Selling Price \(=11.50 \) Rs. per meter

    Hence, the correct option is (D).

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    The difference between simple and compound interests compounded annually on a certain sum of money for 2 years at 4% per annum is Re. 1. The sum (in Rs.) is:

    Solution

    Let the sum be Rs. \(x\). Then,

    C.I. \(=\left[x\left(1+\frac{4}{100}\right)^{2}-x\right]\)

    \(=\left(\frac{676}{625} x-x\right)\)

    \(=\frac{51}{625} x\)

    S.I. \(=\left(\frac{x \times 4 \times 2}{100}\right)\)

    \(=\frac{2 x}{25}\)

    \(\therefore \frac{51 x}{625}-\frac{2 x}{25}=1\)

    \(\Rightarrow x=625 \)
    Hence, the correct option is (A).

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    A father distributed some chocolates among his four children and kept some with him. The eldest three children got chocolates in the ratio 3 : 11 : 7. The total number of chocolates with father and youngest child is three times the total chocolates with the three eldest children. The ratio of chocolates with father and that with all the children is 3 : 4. Find the total number of chocolates if the youngest child has 81 chocolates with him?

    Solution

    Given:

    The eldest three children got chocolates in the ratio 3 : 11 : 7.

    Let the children be P, Q, R and S and Father be F.

    Chocolates with P : Q : R = 3 : 7 : 11

    Let the number of chocolates be 3k, 7k and 11k.

    Total chocolates with three eldest children = 21k

    Chocolate with F and S = 3 × 21k = 63k

    Total chocolates = (21k + 63k) = 84k

    Chocolate with F : (P + Q + R + S) = 3 : 4

    Total 7 units of chocolate = 84 k

    1 unit = 12k

    Chocolate with F = 3 × 12k = 36k

    Chocolate with S =  (63k – 36k) = 27k

    27 k = 81

    k = 3

    Total number of chocolates = 84k 

    = 84 × 3 

    = 252

    Hence, the correct option is (B).

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    The income of Adarsh, Satpal and Rahim in the ratio of 12 : 9 : 7 and their spendings are in the ratio 15 : 9 : 8. If Adarsh saves 25% of his income. What is the ratio of the savings of Adarsh, Satpal and Rahim?

    Solution

    Given.

    Income = Expenditure + Saving

    Adarsh: 12x = 15y + 3x (3x = 25% of 12x)

    Satpal: 9x = 9y + (9x – 9y)

    Rahim: 7x = 8y + (7x – 8y)

    Therefore, 12x – 3x = 15y

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{x}{y}=\frac{5}{3}\)

    \(y=\frac{3 x}{5}\)

    Therefore, savings = (income – expenditure)

    Adarsh = 12x – 9x 

    = 3x

    Satpal = 9x – 9y 

    \(=9 x-\frac{27}{5} x\)

    \(=\frac{18}{5} x\)

    Rahim = 7x – 8y

    \(=7 x-\frac{24}{5} x\)

    \(=\frac{11}{5} x\)

    i.e., the ratio of savings of Adarsh : Satpal : Rahim

    \(=3 x: \frac{18}{5} x: \frac{11}{5} x\)

    \(=15 : 18 : 11\)

    Hence, the correct option is (A).

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    The probability that a number selected from \(1,2,3, \ldots \ldots, 35\) is a prime number is:

    Solution

    Given:

    Total numbers \(=35\)

    \(\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{E})=\frac{\text{ Favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}\), here \(\mathrm{E}\) is an event.

    Prime numbers between 1 to 35 , including 1 and 35 are \(2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29\) and 31.

    \(\Rightarrow\) Total number of prime numbers \(=11\)

    \(\Rightarrow\) Favourable outcomes \(=11\)

    \(\Rightarrow\) Total numbers \(=35\)

    \(\Rightarrow\) Total outcomes \(=35\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{P}(\)Getting a prime number\()=\frac{\text{ Favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}\)

    \(\therefore \mathrm{P}\) (Getting a prime number) \(=\frac{11}{ 35}\)

    Hence, the correct option is (B).

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    Find 9 rational numbers between \(-\frac{1}{9}\) and \(\frac{1}{5}\).

    Solution

    Given: 

    \(-\frac{1}{9}\) and \(\frac{1}{5}\)

    Convert the rational numbers into equivalent rational numbers with the same denominator.

    LCM of 9 and 5 is 45.

    \(-\frac{1}{9}=\frac{-1 \times 5}{9 \times 5}=\frac{-5}{45}\)

    and \(\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1 \times 9}{5 \times 9}=\frac{9}{45}\)

    The integers between \(-5\) and 9 are \(-4,-3,-2,-1\), \(0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8\)

    The corresponding rational numbers are,

    \(\frac{-4}{45}, \frac{-3}{45}\) \(\frac{-2}{45}, \frac{-1}{45}, \frac{0}{45}, \frac{1}{45}, \frac{2}{45}, \frac{3}{45}, \frac{4}{45}, \frac{5}{45}, \frac{6}{45}, \frac{7}{45}, \frac{8}{45}\)

    On selecting any 9 of them, we get 9 rational numbers between \(-\frac{1}{9}\) and \(\frac{1}{5}\):

    \(\frac{-4}{45}, \frac{-3}{45}, \frac{-2}{45}, \frac{-1}{45}, \frac{2}{45}, \frac{3}{45}, \frac{4}{45}, \frac{5}{45}, \frac{8}{45}\)

    Hence, the correct option is (D).
