Q:

A basket contains 10 apples and 20 oranges out of which 3 apples and 5 oranges are defective. If we choose two fruits at random, what is the probability that either both are oranges or both are non defective?

A) 136/345	B) 17/87
C) 316/435	D) 158/435

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 316/435

Explanation:

$n (s) = {}^{30}C_{2}$

Let A be the event of getting two oranges and

B be the event of getting two non-defective fruits.

and $(A \cap B)$ be the event of getting two non-defective oranges

$∴ P (A) = \frac{{}^{20}C_{2}}{{}^{30}C_{2}}, P (B) = \frac{{}^{22}C_{2}}{{}^{30}C_{2}} a n d P (A \cap B) = \frac{{}^{15}C_{2}}{{}^{30}C_{2}}$

$∴ P (A \cup B) = P (A) + P (B) - P (A \cap B)$

= $\frac{{}^{20}C_{2}}{{}^{30}C_{2}} + \frac{{}^{22}C_{2}}{{}^{30}C_{2}} - \frac{{}^{15}C_{2}}{{}^{30}C_{2}} = \frac{316}{435}$

Q:

A housewife saved Rs. 2.50 in buying an item on sale. If she spent Rs. 25 for the item, approximately how much percent she saved in the transaction ?

A) 8	B) 9
C) 10	D) 11

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 9

Explanation:

Actual price = Rs. (25 + 2.50) = Rs. 27.50.

Saving = 2.50

Percentage Saving = [(2.50/27.50)*100]

= 2500/275

= $9 \frac{1}{11}$ %

$\approx 9$ %

Find the next number in the given number series?

50, 51, 47, 56, 40, ?

A) 58	B) 65
C) 76	D) 81

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 65

Explanation:

The given number series is 50, 51, 47, 56, 40, ?

$50 50 + 1^{2} = 51 51 - 2^{2} = 47 47 + 3^{2} = 56 56 - 4^{2} = 40 40 + 5^{2} = 65$

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 65.
