Q:

The probability that z lies between 0 and 3.01

A) 0.4987 B) 0.5
C) 0.9987 D) 0.1217
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 0.4987

Explanation:

Probability between z = 0 and z = 3.01 is given by

P(0<z<3.01) = P(z<3.01) - P(z<0)

Reading from the z-table, we have

P(z<0) = 0.5

P(z<3.01) = 0.9987

Hence, P(0<z<3.01) = 0.9987 - 0.5 = 0.4987.

Q:

The market price of an article was 40% more than its cost price. Rana was going to sell it at market price to a customer, but he showed Rana some defects in the article, due to which Rana gave him a discount of 28.57%. Next day he came again and showed Rana some more defects, hence he gave him another discount that was equal to 12.5% of the cost price. What was the approximate profit/loss to Rana ?

A) Loss of 12.5% B) Profit of 12.5%
C) Loss of 24.5% D) Profit of 22.5%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Loss of 12.5%

Explanation:

Let the cost price be Rs. 100
Then, market price is Rs. 140
Now, the first discount is of 28.57% Rs.140 =~ Rs. 40
Hence, its selling price = 140 - 40 = Rs. 100
Now since Rana is selling at cost price, any further discount will be equal to loss percentage.
The next dicount of 12.5% will be the loss percentage to Rana.

A man pays Rs. 6.40 per litre of milk. He adds water and sells the mixture at Rs. 8 per litre, thereby making 37.5% profit. The proportion of water to milk received by the customers is

A) 1 : 10 B) 10 : 1
C) 9 : 11 D) 11 : 9

Milk          ::        Water

  6.4                         0

         81 + 38 =6411

 6411                      6410 - 6411 

=> Milk : Water = 110 : 11 = 10 : 1
