Q:

At an examination in which maximum marks are 500. P got 10% less than Q, Q got 25% more than R and R got 20% less than S. If P got 360 marks what percentage of marks was obtained by S ?

A) 77 B) 74
C) 80 D) 83
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 80

Explanation:

Let marks obtained by S = M

R's marks = 0.80M

Q's marks = 1.25 (0.80M)

P's marks = (0.90) (1.25) (0.80M)

= 0.9M

But 0.9M = 360

M = ?

M = 400

Hence % of marks obtained by S

= 400/500 x 100 = 80%.

Q:

38% of 7500 +  ?% of 375 = 50% of 6000

A) 50 B) 40
C) 60 D) 45
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 40

Explanation:

Let ? = p

38 x 7500/100  + p x 375/100 = 50 x 6000/100

=> 38 x 75 + 3.75p = 3000

=> 3.75p = 3000 - 2850

=> p = 150/3.75 

=> p = ? = 40

Q:

A trader marked the price of the T.V. 30% above the cost price of the T.V. and gave the purchaser 10% discount on the marked price, thereby gaining Rs.340. Find the cost price of the T.V ?

A) Rs. 2000 B) Rs. 1600
C) Rs. 2200 D) Rs. 2100
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 2000

Explanation:

Let 'x' be the cost price.
Now Marked price = x + 30x/100 = 13x/10
10% discount = 10/100 x 13x/10 = 13x/100
Selling price = 13x/10 - 13x/100 = 117x/100
Given gain = 340
Here gain = 117x/100 - x = 17x/100 = 340 => x = Rs. 2000.
