Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

Total number of persons = 9

Out of 9 persons 4 persons can be selected in 9C4 ways =126

1 man,1 woman and 2 children can be selected in 3C1*2C1*4C1 ways =36

So,required probability = 36/126 =2/7

Let the cost price of 1 article = Rs. 1

From the given data,

Then, the selling price of 1 article = 22/18 = 11/9

Then, Profit = SP - CP = 11/9 - 1 = 2/9

Required, profit % = Profit/CP x 100

= [(2/9)/1] x 100

= 200/9

= 22.222%.

Let S.P = x then C.P = 

Selling price received by subbu = (108% of x)

                                            = 

Gain= 

Hence gain% =  = 20%

At first glance it might seem that this problem cannot be solved because we do not have enough
information. It can be solved as long as you double whatever amount you start with. If we start with
$100, then P = $100 and FV = $200.

FV=P(1+r/n)^nt

     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]

Let the sum be Rs. P
P{ 1+81002- 1 } = 2828.80

It is in the form of  a2-b2 = a+ba-b

P(8/100)(2 + 8/100) = 2828.80

P = 2828.80 / (0.08)(2.08)

= 1360/0.08 = 17000

Principal + Interest = Rs. 19828.80

Let the numbers be a and b.
We know that product of two numbers = Product of their HCF and LCM
Then, a + b = 55 and ab = 5 x 120 = 600.
=> The required sum = (1/a) + (1/b) = (a+b)/ab
=55/600 = 11/120

Let Shilpa's present age is p years

According to question,

p = 4(x+4) – 4(x–4)

p = 4x+16 – 4x+16

p = 32

Shilpa's present age = 32 years

Rajeev is four years older than Shilpa

=> Shilpa's present age = Rajeev's age 4 years before.

=> Rajeev's age 4 years before = 32 years.
