Q:

Twelve percent of Kalyan's monthly salary is equal to the sixteen per cent of Nandu's monthly salary. Sarnesh's monthly salary is half that of Nandu's monthly salary. If sarnesh's annual salary is Rs. 1.08 lacs, What is Kalyan's monthly salary ?

A) 15,000 B) 36,000
C) 24,000 D) 12,500
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 24,000

Explanation:

Let K = Kalyan's monthly salary
N = Nandu's monthly salary
S = Sarnesh's monthly salary.
Then from given data,
12% of K = 16% of N
S = N/2 => N = 2S
K = 16/12 x N = 16/12 x 2S
= 16/6 x 1.08/12 = 16/6 x 0.09 = 0.24 lacs = 24,000

A) 196 mts B) 220 mts
C) 230 mts D) 245 mts

Q:

A tap can fill a tank in 6 hours. After half the tank is filled three more similar taps are opened. What is the total time taken to fill the tank completely ?

A) 4 hrs 15 min B) 3 hrs 24 min
C) 4 hrs 51 min D) 3 hrs 45 min
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 3 hrs 45 min

Explanation:

Time taken by one tap to fill half of the tank = 3 hrs.

Part filled by the taps in 1 hour = 4 x 1/6 = 2/3

Remaining part = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2

2/3 : 1/2 :: 1 : p

p = 1/2 x 1 x 3/2 = 3/4 hrs. i.e., 45 min

So, total time taken = 3 hrs 45 min.

Q:

Prashanth sold a album for $ 735 and made a profit of 22.5% . The cost price of the album went up by $120 and so Prashanth increased the selling price by $120. What is his profit % now ?

A) 19.32 % B) 18.75 %
C) 21.41 % D) 22 %
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 18.75 %

Explanation:

Prashanth sold a album for $ 735 and made a profit of 22.5% .
CP = 735 x 100/122.5 = Rs. 600
New CP = 600 + 120 = Rs. 720
New SP = 735 + 120 = Rs. 855.

Profit = Rs. 135.

profit % = 100 x 135/720 = 18.75%.
