A) 444 B) 344
C) 244 D) 144
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 144

Number of Pens = 3x

Number of Pencils = 2x

Average number of pencils & Pens = 3x + 2x2 = 180

5x = 360

=> x = 72


Hence, the number of pencils = 2x = 72 x 2 = 144.

Q:

A car mechanic purchased four old cars for Rs. 1 lakh. He spent total 2 lakh in the maintenance and repairing of these four cars. what is the average sale price of the rest three cars to get 50% total profit if he has already sold one of the four cars at Rs. 1.2 lakh?

A) 1.5 lakh B) 1.1 lakh
C) 1.2 lakh D) 1.65 lakh
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1.1 lakh

Explanation:

Total cost of 4 cars =  1+2 = 3 lakh

 

Total S.P of 4 cars = 3 x 1.5 = 4.5 lakh   (Since S.P = 100 + Gain%100 x C.P)

 

 S.P of 1 car = 1.2 lakh 

 

S.P of rest 3 cars = 4.5 - 1.2 = 3.3 lakh

 

 Average S.P of all the 3 cars = 1.1 lakh
