Q:

A is a working and B is sleeping partners in a business. A puts in Rs. 5000 and B puts in Rs.6000. A receives % of the profit for managing the business and the rest is divided in proportion to their capital. What does each get out of a profit of Rs. 880?

Answer

Total profit = Rs. 880


A's share for managing the business i.e 


\inline 12\frac{1}{2} %  =  \inline \frac{25\times 880}{200}=Rs.110


Remaining profit of A and B as per their capital = 880 - 110 = Rs. 770


Ratio of amounts = 5000 : 6000 = 5 : 6


Sum of ratios = 5 + 6 = 11


A's share = \inline 770\times \frac{5}{11}= Rs.350


A's total share = 350 + 110 = Rs. 460


B's share = \inline 770\times \frac{6}{11}=Rs.420

Q:

Mark the odd man out in the given number series

24.3, 23.1, 20.7, 17.1, 12.4

A) 12.4 B) 17.1
C) 20.7 D) 23.1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 12.4

Explanation:

The given series 24.3, 23.1, 20.7, 17.1, 12.4 follows a pattern that

24.3

24.3 - 1.2 = 23.1

23.1 - 2.4 = 20.7

20.7 - 3.6 = 17.1

17.1 - 4.8 = 12.3 not 12.4

 

Hence, the odd man or odd number in the given series is 12.4

Q:

Find the odd one out of the floowing number series?

270, 261, 279, 252, 289, 243

A) 270 B) 279
C) 289 D) 243
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 289

Explanation:

Here the given number series is 270, 261, 279, 252, 289, 243

270 - 9 = 261

261 + 18 = 279

279 - 27 = 252

252 + 36 = 288 (not equals to 289)

288 - 45 = 243

 

Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 289.
