Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 400

Explanation:

Let the total number of pages in the book be 'x'.

From given data,

2x/5 + 34x/100 + 52 + 52 = x

 => 40x + 34x + 10400 = 100x

 => 26x = 10400

 => x = 400.

 Hence, total pages in the book are 400.

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 21,14

Explanation:

Putting A=1, B=2, C=3,..., M=13,....,X=24,Y=25, Z=26, we have :

CK = C + K2 + 2 =  3 + 112 + 2 = 9

 

 

 

TX = T + X2+ 2 = 20 + 242 + 2 = 24

 

 

 

OS = O + S2 + 2 = 15 + 192 + 2 = 19

 

 

 

 So, the missing numbers are :

Q:

A shopkeeper sells two articles at Rs.1000 each, making a profit of 20% on the first article and a loss of 20% on the second article. Find the net profit or loss that he makes?

A) 2% B) 4%
C) 3% D) 2.5%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 4%

Explanation:

SP of first article = 1000

Profit = 20%

CP = 100100+P×SP= 5000/6 = 2500/3


SP of second article = 1000

Loss = 20%

CP = 100100-L×SP= 5000/4 = 1250


Total SP = 2000

Total CP = 25003+ 1250 = 6250/3

CP is more than SP, he makes a loss.

Loss = CP-SP = (6250/3)- 2000 = 250/3


Loss Percent =250362503×100= 4%

A) 14 kmph B) 13 kmph
C) 12 kmph D) 11 kmph
