Answer

1. ANSWERS  : D  


Explanation-   Required difference = (128000 - 107000) = 21000.


 


2. ANSWERS  : C  


Explanation-  From the line-graph it is clear that the productions of Company X in the   years 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002 are 119000, 99000, 141000, 78000, 120000 and 159000 and those of Company Y are 139000, 120000,100000, 128000, 107000 and 148000 respectively. 


Total production of Company X from 1997 to 2002 


= 119000 + 99000 + 141000 + 78000 + 120000 + 159000 


= 716000. 


and total production of Company Y from 1997 to 2002 


= 139000 + 120000 + 100000 + 128000 + 107000 + 148000 


= 742000. 


Difference = (742000 - 716000) = 26000.


 


3. ANSWERS  : A 


Explanation-  Average number of vehicles manufactured by Company X  


16×119000+99000+141000+78000+120000+159000 


 = 119333.


 


4. ANSWERS  : D  


Explanation-   The difference between the productions of Companies X and Y in various years are: 


 For 1997 (139000 - 119000)  = 20000. 


 For 1998 (120000 - 99000)  = 21000. 


 For 1999 (141000 - 100000)  = 41000. 


 For 2000 (128000 - 78000) = 50000. 


 For 2001 (120000 - 107000) = 13000. 


 For 2002 (159000 - 148000) = 11000. 


 Clearly, maximum difference was in 2000.

Answer

1. Answer : 1


Explanation :  Quantity of Guava at Shop A = 1200×10100 = 120 kg 


Quantity of Guava at Shop B = 1000×16100= 160 kg


Therefore, Required difference = 160 - 120 = 40 kg


 


2. Answer : 2


Explanation : Cost of Mango at Shop A = 30×1200×24100= Rs. 8640 


Cost of Apple = 40×1200×16100 = Rs. 7680 


Cost of Orange = 20×1200×20100 = Rs.4800 


Therefore, Required Ratio = 8640 : 6780 : 4800  = 9 : 8 : 5 


 


3. Answer : 3 


Explanation : Quantity of Mango at Shop B = 1000×24100 = 240 kg 


Quantity of Mango at Shop A =1200×24100 = 288 kg


 Therefore, Req % = 288×100240 = 120% of the quantity of Mango at Shop A


 


4. Answer : 4 


Explanation : Cost of total fruits at Shop A = Cost of Mango + Cost of Apple + Cost of Guava + Cost of orange + Cost of other fruits


 =1200×24100×30 + 1200×16100×40 + 1200×10100×18 + 1200×20100×20 + 1200×30100×15 


= Rs. 28680 


Cost of Total Fruits at Shop B


=1000×24100×30 + 1000×14100×40 + 1000×16100×18 + 1000×20100×20 + 1000×26100×15


= 7200 + 5600 + 2880 + 4000 + 3900 


= Rs. 23580


Therefore, Req.difference = 28680 - 23580 = Rs.5100


 


5. Answer : 5


Explanation: Quantity of Orange at Shop A = 1200×20100 = 240 kg 


Quantity of Apple at Shop B =1000×14100 = 140 kg


 Therefore, Req % = 240×100140 = 171.42% more than the quantity of Apple at Shop B.

 Income of Company A  = 10800000×45 = Rs. 8640000


 Therefore, Required differeence = 10800000 - 8640000 = Rs.2160000

4. Answer : 2 


Explanation : Difference = 6000000×34100-5000000×28100 


= 2040000 - 1400000 = Rs.640000


 


5. Answer : 5


 Explanation :  Expenditure on Machine and Electricity of Company B = 6000000×18100 = Rs.1080000 = 10.8 lakh


 Expenditure on Machine and Electricity of Company A = 5000000×12100 = Rs.600000 = 6 lakh


 Therefore, Required % = 1080000-600000600000×100  % = 4860×100% = 80%


 Hence expenditure of Company B is 80% more than Company A.
