Q:

A shopkeeper sells two articles at Rs.1000 each, making a profit of 20% on the first article and a loss of 20% on the second article. Find the net profit or loss that he makes?

A) 2%	B) 4%
C) 3%	D) 2.5%

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 4%

Explanation:

SP of first article = 1000

Profit = 20%

CP = $\frac{100}{100 + P} \times S P$ = 5000/6 = 2500/3

SP of second article = 1000

Loss = 20%

CP = $\frac{100}{100 - L} \times S P$ = 5000/4 = 1250

Total SP = 2000

Total CP = $\frac{2500}{3}$ + 1250 = 6250/3

CP is more than SP, he makes a loss.

Loss = CP-SP = (6250/3)- 2000 = 250/3

Loss Percent = $\frac{\frac{250}{3}}{\frac{6250}{3}} \times 100$ = 4%

Q:

Solve the Puzzle?

Answer

From the assumption and trial and error method,

last three digits sum must leave the same digit as the answer. It is possible only if the answer must be units digit number leaving tens digit as carry.

And the possible 3rd digit is 5. Since 5 + 5 + 5 = 15

Now, 2nd step is 1 + x + x + x = 5

=> 3x = 4

It is possible with x = 8. 8 + 8 + 8 + 1 = 25 leaving 2 as carry.

Now, 3rd step is 2 + x + x + x = 5 => x = 1

Hence, the three dgits are 1, 8, 5.

185 + 185 + 185 = 555.

Q:

In a race of 800m Kaushik gives Piyush a start of 200m and then loses the race by 20 seconds. What is the speed of Piyush and Kaushik respectively ? If the ratio of respective speeds be 3:2.

Answer

Let the speed of Kaushik be Sk and speed of Piyush be Sp and let the time taken by Piyush be t second then,

$\frac{Sk}{Sp} = \frac{\frac{800}{t + 20}}{\frac{600}{t}} = \frac{2}{3} (since given ratio)$

t = 20 s

Speed of Piyush = Sp = 600/20 = 30 m/s

and Speed of Kaushik = 800/40 = 20 m/s

Q:

A girl want to read a complete book. She read 2/5 part of a book on 1st day, 34% on second day and remaining pages in next two days. On those two days she read equal number of pages. If she read 52 pages on last day, then find out total number of pages that the book contain ?

A) 400	B) 525
C) 325	D) 475

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 400

Explanation:

Let the total number of pages in the book be 'x'.

From given data,

2x/5 + 34x/100 + 52 + 52 = x

=> 40x + 34x + 10400 = 100x

=> 26x = 10400

=> x = 400.

Hence, total pages in the book are 400.
