Q:

# Out of the five integral numbers C is the average of A and D.  B is greater than C and less than D.Also B is the average of A and E . The middle most number in the sequence

 A) A B) B C) C D) D

Explanation:

D _  C  _ A          --------(1)

D > B > C           --------(2)

from (1) and (2)

D > B > C > A   ---------(3)

Again      E _ B _ A

But B > A, from (3)

So          E > D > B > C > A      [ Since B is the average of E and A so it is eqidistant from both E and A]

Q:

The average of a non-zero number and its square is 11 times the number. The number is ?

 A) 22 B) 21 C) 11 D) 17

Explanation:

Let the number be 'x'.

$\inline \fn_jvn \small \frac{x+x^{2}}{2}$ = 11x
$\fn_jvn \small x^{2}$= 22x
=> x = 22.

Q:

The ratio of speeds of a car, a train and a bus is 5:9:4. The average speed of the car, the bus and the train is 72 km/hr together. What is the average speed of the car and the train together ?

 A) 84 km/hr B) 96 km/hr C) 72 km/hr D) 60 km/hr

Explanation:

Let the speeds of the car, train and bus be 5x, 9x and 4x km/hr respectively.
Average speed = 5x + 9x + 4x/3 = 18x /3 = 6x km/hr.
Also, 6x = 72 => x = 12 km/hr
Therefore, the average speed of the car and train together is = $\inline \fn_jvn \small \frac{5x+9x}{2}$= 7x = 7 x 12 = 84 km/hr.

Q:

When all the students in a school are made to stand in rows of 54, 30 such rows are formed. If the students are made to stand in rows of 45, how many such rows will be formed ?

 A) 22 B) 36 C) 32 D) 26

Explanation:

Total number of students = 54 x 30
When arranged in rows of 45, number of rows formed are,
$\inline \fn_jvn \small \frac{54x30}{45}$ = 36.

Q:

20 men went to a restaurant. Ninteen of them paid Rs.70 each and the twentieth man paid Rs.90.25 more than the average of all the 20 men. What is the total bill ?

 A) Rs. 1495 B) Rs. 548 C) Rs. 850 D) Rs. 1750

Explanation:

Let the average bill paid by twenty members = 'x'

But 19 men paid each = Rs. 70

20th man paid Rs. 90.25 more than the avg bill of 20 = x + 90.25

20x = 19(70) + x + 90.25
19x = 1330 + 90.25
19x = 1420.25
x = 1420.25/19 = Rs. 74.75

But the total bill = 20 x 74.75 = Rs. 1495.
