Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

Given that mill worth originally =3ooooo

Depreciation for 1 yr =300000x5/100= Rs. 15000

Then, depreciation for 5yrs = Rs. 75000

Value after 5yrs = 300000 - 75000 = Rs. 225000

Given Selling Price of the mill = Rs. 250000

Sp > CP

Gain = 250000 - 225000 = Rs. 25000

Gain% = 25000/250000 x 100 = 10%.

5/8 is Nothing but to divide 5 into 8 parts.

As 5 is smaller than 8, the quotient starts with a decimal point to make 5 as 50 to be divisible by 8. (0.)

Now 50 goes for 6 times in 8 leaving a remainder 2. (0.6)

Again 2 is smaller than 8, As it already has decimal point in the quotient, now 2 becomes 20.

Now 20 goes for 2 times in 8 leaving a remainder 4. (0.62)

Again 4 is smaller than 8, As it already has decimal point in the quotient, now 4 becomes 40.

Now 40 goes for 5 times in 8 leaving a remainder 0. (0.625)

Therefore, the decimal value of 58 is 0.625.

Now find a decimal value of 1117 and Discuss your at Discuss.
