Q:

A milkman has 20 liters of milk. If he mixes 5 liters of water, which is freely available, in 20 liters of pure milk. If the cost of pure milk is Rs. 18 per litre, then the profit of the milkman, when he sells all the mixture at cost price, is:

A) 20%	B) 25%
C) 33.33%	D) 18%

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 25%

Explanation:

When the water is freely available and all the water is sold at the price of the milk, then the water gives the profit on the cost of 20 litres of milk.

Since, the profit % = $\frac{P r o f i t}{C o s t P r i c e} x 100$

Therefore, profit percentage = $\frac{5}{20} x 100$ = 25%

Q:

A triangle and a parallelogram are constructed on the same base such that their areas are equal. If the altitude of the parallelogram is 100 m , then the altitude of the triangle is

A) 200m	B) 300m
C) 400m	D) 100m

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 200m

Explanation:

Let the triangle and parallelogram have common base b,

let the Altitude of triangle is h1 and of parallelogram is h2(which is equal to 100 m), then

Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h 1$

Area of rectangle = b*h2

As per Given,

$\frac{1}{2} * b * h 1 = b * h 2$

$\frac{1}{2} * b * h 1 = b * 100$

h1=200

Q:

If $\log_{7} (2)$ = m, then $\log_{49} (28)$ is equal to ?

A) 1/(1+2m)	B) (1+2m)/2
C) 2m/(2m+1)	D) (2m+1)/2m

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) (1+2m)/2

Explanation:

$\log_{49} (28) = \frac{1}{2 \log_{7} (7 \times 4)}$

= $\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2} (2 \log_{7} (2))$
= $\frac{1}{2} + \log_{7} (2)$
= $\frac{1}{2} + m$
= $\frac{1 + 2 m}{2}$ .
