Q:

A tank is 25 m long, 12 m wide and 6 m deep. The cost of plastering its walls and bottom at 75 paise per sq. m, is:

A) Rs. 456	B) Rs. 458
C) Rs. 558	D) Rs. 568

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 558

Explanation:

Area to be plastered= [2(l + b) x h] + (l x b)

= [2(25 + 12) x 6] + (25 x 12)

= (444 + 300)

= 744

Cost of plastering = Rs. 744 x (75/100)= Rs. 558

Q:

The length of a rectangular plot is 20 metres more than its breadth. If the cost of fencing the plot @ 26.50 per metre is Rs. 5300, what is the length of the plot in metres?

A) 40	B) 120
C) 50	D) None of these

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) None of these

Explanation:

Let breadth = x metres.

Then, length = (x + 20) metres.

Perimeter = 5300 m = 200 m. 26.50

2[(x + 20) + x] = 200

2x + 20 = 100

2x = 80

x = 40.

Hence, length = x + 20 = 60 m.

Q:

The length of a rectangle is halved, while its breadth is tripled. What is the percentage change in area?

A) 25% increase	B) 50% increase
C) 50% decrease	D) 75% decrease

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 50% increase

Explanation:

Let original length = x and original breadth = y.

Original area = xy.

New length = x/2 and New breadth = 3y.

New area = (x/2 * 3y) = (3/2 )xy

Therefore, Increase % = [(1/2)xy * (1/xy) * 100] % = 50%
