Q:

Every year before the festive season, a brand store increases the price of the product by 42% and then introduce two successive discount of 10% and 11% respectively. What is percentage loss and percentage gain ?

A) 3.25% loss B) 13.742% loss
C) 3.25% gain D) 13.742% gain
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 13.742% gain

Explanation:

Let CP = 100,
42 % increase => SP = 142
10 % discount in SP => ((142 x 10)/100) = 14.2
So 1st SP = (142 - 14.2) = 127.8, again 12 % discount in 1st SP ((127.8 x 11)/100) = 14.058
2nd SP = (127.8 - 14.058) = 113.742,
So finally CP = 100, SP = 113.742, => gain = 13.742%.

Q:

The length of a rope in meter by which a cow must be tethered in order that she may be able to graze an area of 2826 sq.m is ?

A) 15 mts B) 30 mts
C) 24 mts D) 36 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 30 mts

Explanation:

The cow can graze an area of 2826 sq.m i.e it is able to cover area of circle of 2826 sq.m

 

Therefore, πr2 =2826
r2 =(2826×7/22) = 899.18 = 900
r = 30 m.

 

Therefore, the radius of the circle implies the length of the rope = 30 mts.

4 x 3 + 3 = 12 + 3 = 15

5 x 4 + 4 = 20 + 4 = 24

6 x 5 + 5 = 30 + 5 = 35

C) 900 D) 700

6,400 gents, 2400 ladies in that company.
So total 8,800employees.
for 8,800 employees, we want 2400 ladies.
for 12,100employees we want how many ladies ?
=> (12,100/8,800) x 2400 = 3300.

A) 18 cm B) 12 cm
C) 16 cm D) 14 cm
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 14 cm

circumference of a circle = 2πr

 

=> 2 × 22/7 × r – r = 37

 

=> 37/7 × r = 37

 

=> r = 7 cm.

 

Diameter D = 2r = 7×2 = 14 cm.
