Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 70% is better

Then 100 x 70/100 = 70
=> price after discount = 100-70 = Rs.30

2nd CASE:

Then 100 x 40/100 = 40
=> price after discount = 100-40 = Rs.60
then
60 x 30/100 = 18
=> price after 2 consequent discount = 60-18 = Rs.42

=>from 1 and 2 cases, 70% discount is better.

A) 54 sec B) 36 sec
C) 72 sec D) 11 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 36 sec

Given the length of the track is 600 m

 

The relative speed = 25 + 35 = 60 kmph = 60 x 5/18 m

 

Therefore Time = 60025+35518= 600/60 x (18/5) = 36 sec.

Q:

The average of marks in 3 subjects is 224. The first subject marks is twice the second and the second subject marks is twice the third. Find the second subject marks ?

A) 384 B) 96
C) 192 D) 206
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 192

Explanation:

Let the third subject marks be 'x'
=> Second subject marks = 2x
=> Third subject marks = 4x
Given avg = 224
x + 2x + 4x = 224 x 3
=> 7x = 224 x 3
=> x = 96
Hence, Second subject marks = 2x = 2 x 96 = 192.
