Q:

Pooja, Shipra and Mounika are three sisters .Pooja and Shipra are twins. The ratio of sum of the ages of Pooja and Shipra is same as that of Mounika alone. Three years earlier the ratio of age of  Pooja and Mounika was 2:7 . what will be the age of Shipra 3 years hence?

A) 21 years B) 16 years
C) 8 years D) 12 years
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 8 years

Explanation:

Since Pooja and Shipra are twins so their ages be same. Let their ages be x and age of Mounika be y , then 

           x+x = y    -------(1) 

 and   x-3y-3=27⇒7x-2y=15 

 

Now, from  equation (1), 

         7x - 4x = 15  =>  x = 5

So the age of Shipra 3 years hence will be 5+3 = 8 years

What is better, to have 70% discount or 40 and 30% discount consequently ?

A) 40% is better B) 70% is better
C) Both are same D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 70% is better

Explanation:

Let Price be Rs.100

1st CASE:

Then 100 x 70/100 = 70
=> price after discount = 100-70 = Rs.30

2nd CASE:

Then 100 x 40/100 = 40
=> price after discount = 100-40 = Rs.60
then
60 x 30/100 = 18
=> price after 2 consequent discount = 60-18 = Rs.42

=>from 1 and 2 cases, 70% discount is better.
