Q:

In a rectangle, length is three times its breadth. If the length and the breadth of the rectangle are increased by 30% and 100% respectively, then its perimeter increases by

A) 40/3% B) 20%
C) 25% D) 27%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 25%

Explanation:
Let the breadth of the rectangle = x
Length of the the rectangle will be = 3 times of breadth = 3x
So the initial perimeter = 2(length + breadth) = 2(x + 3x) = 8x
New breadth after increase = x + 10x/100 = 1.1x
New length after increase = 3x + 30*3x/100 = 3.9x
New perimeter = 2(1.1x + 3.9x) = 10x
Percentage change in perimeter = ( 10x-8x)*100/8x = 25%

Q:

If 78K928L is divisible by 6, then which of the following can Q and R take ?

A) K=2 & L=3 B) K=1 & L=4
C) K=1 & L=2 D) K=3 & L=3
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) K=1 & L=4

Explanation:

As per divisibility rule a number is divisible by 6 means it should be divisible by 2 and 3

case 1 : the divisibility rule for 2 is the number should be end with even number
in this case R =2 & R=4


case 2 : The divisibility rule for 3 is the sum of numbers should be divisible by 3
so if we take option (2) Q=1 & R=4 the sum is 39
if we take option (3) Q=1 & R=2 the sum is 37

So Option (2) is correct 39 is divided by 3

Q:

The cost price of a college bag is 240% more than the profit obtained on it selling at Rs. 1540. What is the cost price of that college bag?

A) Rs. 1190 B) Rs. 1288
C) Rs. 1365 D) Rs. 1452
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 1190

Explanation:

Let the profit be Rs. p

Then Cost price of the bag = 340p/100 = 3.4p

According to question,

3.4p + p = 1540

4.4p = 1540

p = 1540/4.4

p = 350

The profit p = Rs, 350

 

Hence, The cost price of the bag = 3.4p = 3.4 x 350 = Rs. 1190.
