A) 1/2 B) 5/12
C) 7/15 D) 3/12

Let E = event of getting a total more than 7
        = {(2,6),(3,5),(3,6),(4,4),(4,5),(4,6),(5,3),(5,4),(5,5),(5,6),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6)}

Therefore,P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 15/36 = 5/12.

Q:

The cost price of 20 articles is the same as the selling price of x articles. If the profit is 25%, then the value of x is:

A) 15 B) 16
C) 18 D) 25
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 16

Explanation:

Let C.P. of each article be Re. 1 C.P. of x articles = Rs. x

S.P. of x articles = Rs. 20. 

Profit = Rs. (20 - x). 

20-xx*100=25 

=> 2000 - 100x = 25x 

=> 125x=2000 

=> x=16
