Q:

The price of commodity X increases by 40 paise every year, while the price of commodity Y increases by 15 paise every year. If in 2001, the price of commodity X was Rs. 4.20 and that of Y was Rs. 6.30, in which year commodity X will cost 40 paise more than the commodity?

A) 2010	B) 2011
C) 2012	D) 2013

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 2011

Explanation:

Suppose commodity X wil cost 40 paise more than Y after Z years. Then,

(4.20 + 0.40Z) - (6.30 + 0.15Z) = 0.40

=> 0.25Z = 0.40 + 2.10 => Z= 2.50/0.25 = 10

Therefore, X will cost 40 paise more than Y 10 years after 2001 . i.e in 2011

Q:

What is the difference between the biggest and the smallest fraction among 2/3 , 3/4 , 4/5 and 5/6?

A) 1/6	B) 1/12
C) 1/20	D) 1/30

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1/6

Explanation:

Converting each of the given fractions into decimal form, we get

2/3 = 0.66, 3/4 = 0.75, 4/5 = 0.8, 5/6 = 0.833

Since 0.833>0.8>0.75>0.66

So, 5/6 > 4/5 > 3/4 > 2/3

Therefore, Required Difference = 5/6 - 2/3 = 1/6

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 11/17, 7/11, 5/9, 8/15

Explanation:

Converting each of the given fractions into decimal form, we get

5/9 = 0.55, 7/11 = 0.63, 8/15 = 0.533, 11/17 = 0.647

Clearly, 0.647>0.63>0.55>0.533

so , 11/17 > 7/11 > 5/9 > 8/15
