Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

First,we count the number of odd days for the left over days in the given period.Here,given period is 09-07-2013 to 07-01-2014

 Therefore, No. of Odd Days =  1 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 0 = 14 = 0 odd days

So, given day Sunday + 0 = Saturday is the required result.

Let the initial number of persons be x. Then,

16x + 20 * 15 = 15.5 (x + 20) <=> 0.5x = 10 <=> x = 20.

Number of cubes= (100x100x100) / (10x10x10)= 1000

u = k , v= 3k 

∴2uvu+v ⇒2×k×3kk+3k=12  => k = 8km/h

Let the beds be numbered 1 to 7.

Case 1 : Suppose Anju is allotted bed number 1. 

Then, Parvin cannot be allotted bed number 2. 

So Parvin can be allotted a bed in 5 ways. 

After alloting a bed to Parvin, the remaining 5 students can be allotted beds in 5! ways.

So, in this case the beds can be allotted in 5´5!ways = 600 ways.

Case 2 : Anju is allotted bed number 7. 

Then, Parvin cannot be allotted bed number 6 

As in Case 1, the beds can be allotted in 600 ways.

Case 3 : Anju is allotted one of the beds numbered 2,3,4,5 or 6. 

Parvin cannot be allotted the beds on the right hand side and left hand side of Anju’s bed. For example, if Anju is allotted bed number 2, beds numbered 1 or 3 cannot be allotted to Parvin.

Therefore, Parvin can be allotted a bed in 4 ways in all these cases.

After allotting a bed to Parvin, the other 5 can be allotted a bed in 5! ways.

Therefore, in each of these cases, the beds can be allotted in 4´ 5! = 480 ways. 

The beds can be allotted in (2x 600 + 5 x 480)ways = (1200 + 2400)ways = 3600 ways

P(odd) = P (even) =12 1(because there are 50 odd and 50 even numbers)

Sum or the three numbers can be odd only under the following 4 scenarios:

Odd + Odd + Odd = 12*12*12= 18

Odd + Even + Even = 12*12*12=18

Even + Odd + Even = 12*12*12=18

Even + Even + Odd = 12*12*12 = 18

Other combinations of odd and even will give even numbers. 

Adding up the 4 scenarios above:

= 18+ 18+18+ 18 = 48 = 12

The number of ways of arranging n beads in a necklace is (n-1)!2=(8-1)!2=7!2 = 2520 

(since n = 8)

Initially                 CP           profit            SP                MP

                              100           x               (100+x)         133.33

After Change     100           2x             (100+x)   

Now,   Since (100+x)  - 100 = 2x

           76 x= 20%

                         CP            Profit              SP             MP

                        100             20               120           133.33

So,                  300             60               360             400

Again             300            120              420

So the increased selling price = Rs. 420
