Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

The series rtus/rtus/rtus/rtus. Thus, the pattern 'rtus' is repeated.

Here as given Q is in the middle and it satisfies all other conditions given in the question.

From both the statements together, we can conclude that the price range of ordinary wall clocks is Rs 200 to Rs 300. Thus, both I and II are required 

2nd Jan 1901 means
(1900 years and 2 day)
Now, 1600 years have 0 odd day
300 years have 1 odd day
2 days has 2 odd day
Total no. of odd days = 0 + 1 + 2 = 3 days
Hence, the day on 2nd Jan 1901 was Wednesday.

Select a number which ocurs on two dice out of six numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). This can be done in C16, ways.

Now select two distinct number out of remaining 5 numbers which can be done in C25 ways. Thus these 4 numbers can be arranged in 4!/2! ways.

So, the number of ways in which two dice show the same face and the remaining two show different faces is 

 C16×C25×4!2!=720

 =>  n(E) = 720

 ∴PE=72064=59

Given compound interest for 3 years = Rs. 1513.2

and simple interest for 5 years = Rs. 2400

Now, we know that  C.I = P1+R100n - 1

=> 1513.2 = P1+R1003 - 1 ...........(A)

And S.I = PTR/100

=> 2400 = P5R/100 ..................(B)

By solving (A) & (B), we get

R = 5%.

Let the C.P be 'x'
Then, the selling price S.P = x - 16x/100
= 84x/100 = 21x/25
Now, if the S.P is 60 more, then the profit is 14%
=> 21x/25 + 60 = x + 14x/100
=> 114x/100 - 21x/25 = 60
=> (57 - 42)x/50 = 60
=> 15x/50 = 60
x = 3000/15 = 200

Therefore, the Cost price C.P = x = Rs. 200
