Q:

The circumferences of two circles are 264 meters and 352 meters. Find the difference between the areas of the larger and the smaller circles ?

A) 2413 sq.m	B) 1234 sq.m
C) 4312 sq.m	D) 2143 sq.m

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 4312 sq.m

Explanation:

Let the radii of the smaller and the larger circles be 's' m and 'l' m respectively.

$2 πs$ = 264 and $2 πl$ = 352

s = $\frac{264}{2 π}$ and l = $\frac{352}{2 π}$

Difference between the areas = $π l^{2} - π s^{2}$

= $π (\frac{176^{2}}{π^{2}} - \frac{132^{2}}{π^{2}})$

= $\frac{1762}{π} - \frac{1322}{π}$

= (176 - 132)(176 + 132) / $π$

= (44 x 308) / (22/7) = 4312 sq.m

Q:

John sells his laptop to Mark at a loss of 20% who subsequently sells it to Kevin at a profit of 25%. Kevin after finding some defect in the laptop, returns it to Mark but could recover only Rs.4.50 for every Rs. 5 he had paid. Find the amount of Kevin’s loss if John had paid Rs. 1,75,000 for the laptop ?

A) Rs.16,500	B) Rs.17,500
C) Rs.14,200	D) Rs.15,520

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs.17,500

Explanation:

Let’s assume John bought the laptop for Rs. 100
He then sells it to Mark at a loss of 20% => Rs. 80,
Who consequently sells it to Kevin at a profit of 25% => Rs. 100
Then, Kevin sells it back to Mark for Rs. 90 (Rs.4.50 for every Rs. 5 that he had paid initially), so he suffers a loss of Rs. 10
Therefore, for Rs. 100 there is a loss of Rs. 10,
Then for Rs. 1,75,000 there will be a loss of Rs. 17,500.

Q:

If the HCF of 210 and 55 is expressible in the form of 210 x 5 + 55P, then value of P = ?

A) -23	B) 27
C) 16	D) -19

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) -19

Explanation:

HCF of 210 and 55 is 5

Now, 210x5 + 55P = 5

=> 1050 + 55P = 5

=> 55P = -1045

=> P = -1045/55

=> P = -19.

Q:

What is the sum which earned interest?
I. The total simple interest was Rs. 7000 after 7 years.
II. The total of sum and simple interest was double of the sum after 5 years.

A) I alone sufficient while II alone not sufficient to answer	B) II alone sufficient while I alone not sufficient to answer
C) Either I or II alone sufficient to answer	D) Both I and II are necessary to answer

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Both I and II are necessary to answer

Explanation:

Let the sum be Rs. x.

I gives, S.I. = Rs. 7000 and T = 7 years.

II gives, Sum + S.I. for 5 years = 2 x Sum Sum = S.I. for 5 years.

Now, S.I. for 7 years = Rs. 7000.

therefore, S.I. for 1 year = Rs. 1000.

Thus, I and II both are needed to get the answer.

Q:

Two trains are running at 60 km/hr and 20 km/hr respectively in the same direction. Fast train completely passes a man sitting in the slower train in 6 seconds. What is the length of the fast train ?

$A . 66 \frac{2}{3} m t s$

$B . 66 \frac{3}{2} m t s$

$C . 63 \frac{4}{5} m t s$

$D . 63 \frac{5}{4} m t s$

A) Option A	B) Option B
C) Option C	D) Option D

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Option A

Explanation:

As Trains are moving in same direction,

Relative Speed = 60-20 = 40 kmph

--> $40 \times \frac{5}{18} = \frac{100}{9}$ m/sec

Length of Train= Speed * Time

Length = $\frac{100}{9} \times 6$

$\Rightarrow \frac{200}{3} = 66 \frac{2}{3} m t s$
