Q:

One card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards, each of the 52 cards being equally likely to be drawn find the probability the card drawn is red.

A) 2/3 B) 1/2
C) 1/52 D) 13/51
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1/2

Explanation:

We know that:

When one card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards

The numbers of possible outcomes n(s) = 52

We know that there are 26 red cards in the pack of 52 cards
⇒ The numbers of favorable outcomes n(E) = 26

Probability of occurrence of an event: P(E)=Number of favorable outcomes/Numeber of possible outcomes=n(E)/n(S)

∴ required probability = 26/52 = 1/2.

Q:

A & B invest Rs. 1,16,000 & 1,44,000 respectively. B invests for 6 months. At the end of the year, B’s share is Rs. 9000, find the overall profit?

A) Rs. 23,500 B) Rs. 19,780
C) Rs. 21,700 D) Rs. 20,050
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 23,500

Explanation:

Given A & B in partnership

A Invests 116000 for 12 months 

=> A's share = 116000 x 12 = 13,92,000

B Invests for 6 months

=> B's share = 144000 x 6 = 8,64,000

Their Ratio = 1392 : 864 = 29 : 18

Let the Annual profit = P

Given B's share = Rs. 9000

=> 18/47 x P = 9000

=> P = 9000 x 47/18

=> P = 23,500

Hence, Overall profit = P = Rs. 23,500
