Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

Let, Hema attempted 'k' sum correctly, then

k x 3 -2 x(35-k) = 60
5k = 130
k = 26

so 26 correct sums.

As the distance travelled is constant, the time taken is inversely proportional to speed.

Let 'u' be the speed of the current and 'v' be the speed of the boat.

Speed of the boat downstream = v + u & upstream = v - u

=> v+u/v-u = 30/20 => v/u = 5 => v = 5u

=> v + u = 6u = 10/20/60 miles/hr

=> 6u = 30 m/h

=> u = 5 m/h

The cow can graze an area of 2826 sq.m i.e it is able to cover area of circle of 2826 sq.m

Therefore, πr2 =2826
r2 =(2826×7/22) = 899.18 = 900
r = 30 m.

Therefore, the radius of the circle implies the length of the rope = 30 mts.

Let CP = 100,
42 % increase => SP = 142
10 % discount in SP => ((142 x 10)/100) = 14.2
So 1st SP = (142 - 14.2) = 127.8, again 12 % discount in 1st SP ((127.8 x 11)/100) = 14.058
2nd SP = (127.8 - 14.058) = 113.742,
So finally CP = 100, SP = 113.742, => gain = 13.742%.

Ayush's present age = 10 years.
His mother's present age = (10 + 20) years = 30 years.
Ayush's father's present age = (30 + 5) years = 35 years.
Ayush's father's age at the time of Ayush's birth = (35 - 10) years = 25 years.

Therefore Ayush's father's age at the time of marriage = (25 - 2) years = 23 years.

Cost of each cake P1 & P2 = Rs. 12

Offer decrease in % = 20%

Increase in sale per day (Q2) = 250 - 18%

Total quantity per day (Q1) = 250

Hence, required change total revenue

TR = P2Q2 - P1Q1 = (12 x 0.8 x 250 x 1.18) -  (12 x 250) = - Rs.168.

Let the speed of the stream = x kmph

From the given data,

 129+x+129-x=3 hrs

3x2 = 27

=> x = 3 kmph

Therefore, the speed of the stream = 3 kmph
