Q:

A rectangular park 60 m long and 40 m wide has two concrete crossroads running in the middle of the park and rest of the park has been used as a lawn. If the area of the lawn is 2109 sq. m, then what is the width of the road?

A) 2.91 m B) 3 m
C) 5.82 m D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3 m

Explanation:

Area of the park = (60 x 40) = 2400 sq.m  

Area of the lawn = 2109  sq.m 

Area of the crossroads = (2400 - 2109) = 291 sq.m   

 

Let the width of the road be x metres. Then,   

60x + 40x - (x * x) = 291  

=>(x * x) - 100x + 291 = 0    

=>(x - 97)(x - 3) = 0  

=>x=3

Q:

The ratio between the perimeter and the breadth of a rectangle is 5 : 1. If the area of the rectangle is 216 sq. cm, what is the length of the rectangle?

A) 16cm B) 18cm
C) 24cm D) .Data inadequate
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 18cm

Explanation:

2(l+b)/b = 5/1 

=> 2l + 2b = 5b  

=> 3b = 2l  

=> b =(2/3) x l

 Then, Area = 216 sq.cm 

 

l x b = 216  

=> l x [(2/3)x l] =216  

=> l x l = 324 

=> l = 18 cm.

Q:

An error 2% in excess is made while measuring the side of a square. The percentage of error in the calculated area of the square is:

A) 2% B) 2.02%
C) 4% D) .4.04%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) .4.04%

Explanation:

100 cm is read as 102 cm.

 A1 = (100 x 100)  and A2 =(102 x 102)   

(A2 - A1) = [(102 x 102)-(100 x 100) ]= 404    

Percentage error =[404/(100 x 100 )] x 100%= 4.04%

Q:

The ratio between the length and the breadth of a rectangular park is 3 : 2. If a man cycling along the boundary of the park at the speed of 12 km/hr completes one round in 8 minutes, then the area of the park (in sq. m) is:

A) 15360 B) 153600
C) .30720 D) 307200
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 153600

Explanation:

Perimeter = Distance covered in 8 min. = (12000/60) * 8 = 1600m 

Let length = 3x metres and breadth = 2x metres.  

Then, 2(3x + 2x) = 1600 or x = 160.  

Length = 480 m and Breadth = 320 m.

Area = (480 x 320) = 153600

Q:

If the ratio of the ages of two friends A and B is in the ratio 3 : 5 and that of B and C is 3 : 5 and the sum of their ages is 147, then how old is B?

A) 27 Years B) 75 Years
C) 45 Years D) 49 Years
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 45 Years

Explanation:

The ratio of the ages of A and B is 3 : 5.
The ratio of the ages of B and C is 3 : 5.

B's age is the common link to both these ratio. Therefore, if we make the numerical value of the ratio of B's age in both the ratios same, then we can compare the ages of all 3 in a single ratio.

The can be done by getting the value of B in both ratios to be the LCM of 3 and 5 i.e., 15.

The first ratio between A and B will therefore be 9 : 15 and
the second ratio between B and C will be 15 : 25.

Now combining the two ratios, we get A : B : C = 9 : 15 : 25.

Let their ages be 9x, 15x and 25x.
Then, the sum of their ages will be 9x + 15x + 25x = 49x

The question states that the sum of their ages is 147.
i.e., 49x = 147 or x = 3.

Therefore, B's age = 15x = 15*3 = 45

Q:

A bill for Rs. 6000 is drawn on July 14 at 5 months. It is discounted on 5th October at 10%. Find the banker's discount, true discount, banker's gain and the money that the holder of the bill receives.

A) 4390 B) 6580
C) 5880 D) 5350
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 5880

Explanation:

Face value of the bill = Rs. 6000.

Date on which the bill was drawn = July 14 at 5 months. Nominally due date =                  December 14.

Legally due date = December 17.

Date on which the bill was discounted = October 5.

Unexpired time  : Oct.               Nov.                Dec.

                                 26  +               30  +              17     = 73 days  =1/ 5Years

 

 B.D. = S.I. on Rs. 6000 for 1/5 year

= Rs.   (6000 x 10 x1/5 x1/100)= Rs. 120.

T.D. = Rs.[(6000 x 10 x1/5)/(100+(10*1/5))]

            =Rs.(12000/102)=Rs. 117.64.

B.G. = (B.D.) - (T.D.) = Rs. (120 - 117.64) = Rs. 2.36.

Money received by the holder of the bill = Rs. (6000 - 120) = Rs. 5880.
