Q:

Area of a square and a rectangle are equal. If side of the square is 40 cm and length of the rectangle is 64 cm, what is the perimeter of the rectangle ?

A) 187 cm B) 178 cm
C) 149 cm D) 194 cm
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 178 cm

Explanation:

Area of square = 40 x 40

= 1600 sq.cm

Given that the areas of Square and Rectangle are equal

=> Area of rectangle = 1600 Sq.cm

We know that, Area of rectangle = L x B

Given L = 64 cm

Breadth of rectangle = 1600/64 = 25 cm

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L + B) = 2(64+25) = 178 cm.

Q:

If price of rice increased by 25%, so that a man is can able to purchase 5 kg less rice in Rs. 500. Find the original price of rice per kg ?

A) Rs. 20 B) Rs. 24
C) Rs. 26 D) Rs. 29
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 20

Explanation:

Let the original price of rice be Rs. x

Let rice a man can buy for Rs. 500 at rs. x/kg be = R kgs

From given data, for Rs. 500

x ---- R kgs

(x + 25x/100) ---- (R - 5) kgs

=> Rx = (R - 5)(x + 25x/100)

=> Rx = (R - 5)(125x/100)

=> 100Rx = 125Rx - 625x

=> R = 25

So at rate of Rs. x/kg, man get 25 kgs for Rs. 500

=> x = 500/25 = Rs. 20

Q:

A earns 50% of B's salary, B earns 80% of C's salary. If the total earnings for a month is Rs. 22000, then what is the earning for A ?

A) Rs. 4000 B) Rs. 4200
C) Rs. 4400 D) Rs. 4600
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 4000

Explanation:

Let C's salary be Rs. x

Then B's salary = 80x/100

=> A's salary = (50/100) * (80x/100) = 40x/100

But given total earnings in a month = 22000

=> x + 80x/100 + 40x/100 = 22000

=> x + 120x/100 = 22000

=> x = 10000

=> A's salary = 40 x 10000/100 = Rs. 4000

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%.
