Q:

A jar was full with honey. A person  used to draw out 20% of the honey from the jar and replaced it with sugar solution. He has repeated  the same process 4 times and thus there was only 512 gm of honey left in the jar, the rest part of the jar was filled with the sugar  solution. The initial amount of honey in the jar was filled with the sugar solution. The initial amount of honey in the jar was:

A) 1.25 kg B) 1 kg
C) 1.5 kg D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1.25 kg

Explanation:

Let the initial amount of honey in the jar was K, then 

 512=K1-154     20% =20100=15

        or      

512=K454

Therefore, K = 1250

Hence initially the honey in the jar= 1.25 kg

Q:

The mean temperature of Monday to Wednesday was 37C and of Tuesday to Thursday was 34C . If the temperature on Thursday was (4/5) th that of Monday, the temperature on Thursday was?

Answer

\inline \fn_jvn M+T+W =(37\times 3)^{0}=111^{0}C   -----------(1)


\inline \fn_jvn T+W+Th=(34\times 3)^{0}=102^{0}C


\inline \fn_jvn \Rightarrow T+W+\frac{4}{5}M = 102^{0}C                --------------(2)


(1) - (2) gives


\inline \fn_jvn \frac{1}{5} th of temperature on Monday = 


\inline \fn_jvn \Rightarrow Temperature on Monday = \inline \fn_jvn 45^{0}C


\inline \fn_jvn \therefore Temperature on Thursday = \inline \fn_jvn \frac{4}{5}\times 45^{0}=36^{0}

Q:

A bag contains 600 coins of 25 p denomination and 1200 coins of 50 p denomination. If 12% of 25 p coins and 24% of 50 p coins are removed, the percentage of money removed from the bag is nearly :

A) 21.6 % B) 15.3 %
C) 14.6 % D) 12.5 %
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 21.6 %

Explanation:

Total money = Rs.[600*(25/100)+1200*(50/100)]= Rs. 750.

 

25 paise coins removed = Rs. (600*12/100) = 72.

 

50 paise coins removed = Rs. (1200*24/100)= 288.

 

Money removed =Rs.(72*25/100+288*50/100)  = Rs.162.

 

Required percentage = (162/750*100)% = 21.6 %.
