Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

Let the total applicants be 100

Then, 20% got 85 marks

i.e 20 x 85 = 1700

and 25% got 95 marks

 i.e 25 x 95 = 2375

Now, the remaining applicants are 55 and let the average marks scored by them be x.

Therefore, 2375 + 1700 + 55x  =  60×100 

6000 - 4075 = 55x

55x=1925

x=35.

From the given data,

                       Day      Capacity

A              ->    12          2

B              ->     8           3             2

A + B + C ->     2            12

=> Capacity of C = 12 - 5 = 7

Ratio of capacity of A : B : C = 2 : 3 : 7

Difference of wages of C & B = 4/5 x 1540

= 4 x 308 = Rs. 1232

Quarter of Kg means 250 gm

Less weight, less price (Direct Proportion)

So,

250 : 200 :: 60 : x => x = 48

So 200 gm will cost 48 paise.

Let S be the sample space. Then,
n(s) = number of ways of drawing 4 pearls out of 14

= C414 ways = 14×13×12×114×3×2×1= 1001

Let E be the event of drawing 4 pearls of the same colour.
Then, E = event of drawing (4 pearls out of 5) or (4 pearls out of 4) or (4 pearls out of 5)

  ⇒C15+ C44+ C15 = 5+1+5 =11

 P(E) = n(E)n(S)=111001=191  

 Required probability = 1-191=9091
