A) 91 B) 104
C) 109 D) 98
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 91

Explanation:

We first count the number of committee in which

(i). Mr. Y is a member
(ii). the ones in which he is not

Case (i): As Mr. Y agrees to be in committee only where Mrs. Z is a member.
Now we are left with (6-1) men and (4-2) ladies (Mrs. X is not willing to join).

We can choose 1 more in5+2C1=7 ways.

Case (ii): If Mr. Y is not a member then we left with (6+4-1) people.
we can select 3 from 9 in 9C3=84 ways.

Thus, total number of ways is 7+84= 91 ways.

Q:

5% of a number is 25% more than another number. The difference between the numbers is 96. Then find the value of the numbers?

A) 102 & 6 B) 99 & 3
C) 104 & 8 D) 100 & 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 100 & 4

Explanation:

Let the first number be x and the second number be y.

Given

5% of x = (25% of y) + y

=> 5x/100 = 5y/4

=> x = 25y ......(1)

and also given that, x - y = 96

=> x = 96 + y .....(2)

From (1)&(2)

25y = 96 + y

=> 24y = 96

=> y = 4

From (1)

x = 96 + 4 = 100

Hence, the numbers are 100 & 4.
