Q:

# Pooja, Shipra and Mounika are three sisters .Pooja and Shipra are twins. The ratio of sum of the ages of Pooja and Shipra is same as that of Mounika alone. Three years earlier the ratio of age of  Pooja and Mounika was 2:7 . what will be the age of Shipra 3 years hence?

 A) 21 years B) 16 years C) 8 years D) 12 years

Explanation:

Since Pooja and Shipra are twins so their ages be same. Let their ages be x and age of Mounika be y , then

x+x = y    -------(1)

and   $\inline&space;\fn_jvn&space;\frac{(x-3)}{(y-3)}=\frac{2}{7}&space;\:&space;\:&space;\Rightarrow&space;7x-2y=15$

Now, from  equation (1),

7x - 4x = 15  $\inline&space;\fn_jvn&space;\Rightarrow$  x = 5

So the age of Shipra 3 years hence will be 5+3 = 8 years

Q:

If k : l = 4 : 3 and l : m = 5 : 3, then find k : l : m ?

 A) 18 : 24 : 11 B) 9 : 15 : 1 C) 20 : 15 : 9 D) 21 : 7 : 3

Explanation:

Given k : l = 4 : 3
l : m = 5 : 3

Then k : l : m = 20 : 15 : 9

Q:

A sum is divided among K, L and M in such a way that for each rupee K gets, L gets 45 paisa and M gets 30 paisa. If the share of L is Rs. 27,  what is the total amount  ?

 A) Rs. 159 B) Rs. 96 C) Rs. 147 D) Rs. 105

Explanation:

K : L : M = 100 : 45 : 30
= 20 : 9 : 6

Given L share is 27

=> 9  ------  27
35 ------  ?

=> 105

Q:

What is the equivalent compound ratio of 5:6::7:10::6:5  ?

 A) 7 : 9 B) 9 : 7 C) 7 : 4 D) 7 : 10

Explanation:

Given 5:6 :: 7:10 :: 6:5

We know that compound ratio is calculated as
a:b :: c:d :: e:f
(axcxe):(bxdxf)

=> (5x7x6):(6x10x5)
=> (210):(300)
= 7:10

Q:

The incomes of two persons A and B are in the ratio 3:4. If each saves Rs.100 per month, the ratio of their expenditures is 1:2. Find their incomes  ?

 A) 200, 400 B) 100, 300 C) 100, 200 D) 150, 200

Explanation:

The incomes of A and B be 3P and 4P.

Expenditures = Income - Savings

(3P - 100) and (4P - 100)

The ratio of their expenditure = 1:2

(3P - 100):(4P - 100) = 1:2

2P = 100 => P = 50

Their incomes = 150, 200
