In a History examination, the average for the entire class was 80 marks. If 10% of the students scored 35 marks and 20% scored 90 marks, what was the average marks of the remaining students of the class ?

A) 25 B) 50
C) 75 D) 100
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 75

Explanation:

Let the number of students in the class be 100 and let this required average be x.

Then, (10 * 95) + (20 * 90) + (70 * x) = (100 * 80)

=> 70x = 8000 - (950 + 1800) = 5250

=> x = 75.

Q:

(x-2) men can do a piece of work in x days and (x+7) men can do 75% of the same work in (x-10)days. Then in how many days can (x+10) men finish the work?

A) 27 days B) 12 days
C) 25 days D) 18 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 12 days

Explanation:

34×(x-2)x=(x+7)(x-10)

x2-6x-280 =0 

=> x= 20   and   x=-14

 so, the acceptable values is x=20 

Therefore, Total work =(x-2)x = 18 x 20 =360 unit

 Now   360 = 30 x k         

=> k=12 days

Q:

A and  B can do  a piece of work in 30 days , while  B and C can do the same work in 24 days and C and A in 20 days . They all work together for 10 days when B and C leave. How many days more will A take to finish  the work?

A) 18 days B) 24 days
C) 30 days D) 36 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 18 days

Explanation:

2(A+B+C)'s 1 day work = 1/30 + 1/24 + 1/20 = 1/8

=>(A+B+C)'s  1 day's work= 1/16

work done by A,B and C in 10 days=10/16 = 5/8

Remaining work= 3/8

A's 1 day's work= 116-124=148

Now, 1/48 work is done by A in 1 day.

 So, 3/8 work  wil be done by A in =48 x (3/8) = 18 days
