Q:

A person lends Rs. 300 to A at 4% and Rs.540 to B at 6% for the same time. if the total amount that he gets at the end is Rs. 1032. What is the time?

Answer

Money lent to A+B = (300 + 540) = Rs. 840

Amount received = Rs. 1032

Interest received = Rs. 1032 - Rs.840 = Rs. 192

Interest on Rs. 300 lent to A for 1 year = $\frac{300 \times 1 \times 4}{100}$ = Rs. 12

Interest on Rs.540 lent to B for 1 year = $\frac{540 \times 6 \times 1}{100}$ = Rs. 36

Total yearly interest = Rs.(12+36) = Rs.48

If interest is Rs. 48, time = 1 year

If interest is Rs. 192, time = 192/48 = 4 years

Q:

There are 1650 students in a college. The difference between the number of boys and girls in the college is 400. What is the percentage of girls in the college ?

A) 49	B) 34
C) 43	D) 38

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 38

Explanation:

Let no. of boys be 'B' and no. of girls be 'G'

Here from given data,

B + G = 1650 .....(1)

B - G = 400 .....(2)

From (1) & (2), we get

2B = 2050

=> B = 1025

=> G = 1650 - 1025 = 625

Hence, the % of girls = 625 x 100/1650

=> 38% (approx).
