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

Q:

A is 3 times faster than B. If A can finish a work 32 days less than that of B, find the number of days need to finish the work if both are working together?

A) 12 days B) 24 days
C) 32 days D) 16 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 12 days

Explanation:

It is given that efficiency ratio =3:1

so time ratio will be 1:3 (since work is same)

 

Also given that time diff = 32 days. ratio difference = 3-1 =2 

2 ratio = 32 days

1 ratio = 16 days.

So A will alone finish it in 16 days and B will finish it in 16*3 = 48 days.

 

Total work = LCM of 16 and 48 = 48.

Total time = Total work/Total efficiency 

ie; 48/4= 12 days.
