Q:

The circumferences of two circles are 264 meters and 352 meters. Find the difference between the areas of the larger and the smaller circles ?

A) 2413 sq.m	B) 1234 sq.m
C) 4312 sq.m	D) 2143 sq.m

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 4312 sq.m

Explanation:

Let the radii of the smaller and the larger circles be 's' m and 'l' m respectively.

$2 πs$ = 264 and $2 πl$ = 352

s = $\frac{264}{2 π}$ and l = $\frac{352}{2 π}$

Difference between the areas = $π l^{2} - π s^{2}$

= $π (\frac{176^{2}}{π^{2}} - \frac{132^{2}}{π^{2}})$

= $\frac{1762}{π} - \frac{1322}{π}$

= (176 - 132)(176 + 132) / $π$

= (44 x 308) / (22/7) = 4312 sq.m

Q:

If k : l = 4 : 3 and l : m = 5 : 3, then find k : l : m ?

A) 18 : 24 : 11	B) 9 : 15 : 1
C) 20 : 15 : 9	D) 21 : 7 : 3

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 20 : 15 : 9

Explanation:

Given k : l = 4 : 3
l : m = 5 : 3

Then k : l : m = 20 : 15 : 9

Q:

A house owner wants to get his house painted. He is told that this would require 45 kg of paint allowing 6% wasting. And if the paint is available in 4 kg tins only, the number of tins required for painting the house is ?

A) 12	B) 13
C) 11	D) 10

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 12

Explanation:

Given 45 kg for painting

And 6% 0f 45 for wasting => 6x45/100 = 2.7 kg

Now total paint required = 45+2.7 = 47.7 kgs

But tins are available in only 4kgs

Then, no. of tins req = 47.7/4 = 11.4 => 12 tins

If a solid sphere of radius 10 cms is moulded into 8 spherical solid balls of equal radius, then surface area of each ball (in sq.cm) is ?

A) 100 π	B) 101/π
C) 99 π/12	D) 54/13π

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 100 π

Explanation:

4/3 π x 10 x 10 x 10 = 8 x 4/3 π x r x r x r
r = 5
4π x 5 x 5 = 100π

Q:

Sonika invested an amount of Rs.5800 for 2 years. At what rate of compound interest will she get an amount of Rs.594.50 at the end of 2 years ?

A) 6.5%	B) 6%
C) 5%	D) 4.5%

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 5%

Explanation:

C.I = $P [{(1 + \frac{r}{100})}^{t} - 1]$

594.5 = $5800 [{(1 + \frac{r}{100})}^{2} - 1]$

$\frac{594.5}{5800} + 1 = {(1 + \frac{r}{100})}^{2}$

$\frac{r}{100} = 1.05 - 1 = 0.05 = > r = 5$ % .
