Let the cost price be Rs. 100
Then, market price is Rs. 140
Now, the first discount is of 28.57% Rs.140 =~ Rs. 40
Hence, its selling price = 140 - 40 = Rs. 100
Now since Rana is selling at cost price, any further discount will be equal to loss percentage.
The next dicount of 12.5% will be the loss percentage to Rana.

1. Answer (c)

Each time we order 1, one apple is added to the basket but each time when 4 is ordered, one apple is removed from it.

Required number of apples = number of 1's - number of 4's = 6 - 4 = 2

2. Answer (d)

Each time we order 1, 2 or 3, one fruit is added to the basket but when ever we order 4, two fruits are removed from it.

Required number = Number of 1's + Number of 2's + Number of 3's - 2 x (Number of 4's)

= 6 + 6 + 7 - (2x4)
= 19 - 8
= 11.

A Christian Priest wears cassock while a Graduate wears gown.

Hence, Cassock : Priest :: Gown : Graduate.

Let the rate be R% p.a.

Then, 5000×r×2100+3000×r×4100=2200

Rate = 10% 

The distance to be covered = Sum of their lengths = 200 + 300 = 500 m.

Relative speed = 72 -36 = 36 kmph = 36 x 5/18 = 10 mps.

Time required = d/s = 500/10 = 50 sec.

Here by observing the figure, 

we can complete the above incomplete cube with 2 cubes in 2 rows and 2 columns

=> 2 x 4 = 8.

Hence, with 8 small cubes we can complete the cube.

Substitute sensible numbers and work out the problem. Then change the numbers back to letters. For example if the machine puts 6 caps on bottles in 2 minutes, it will put 6 /2 caps on per minute, or (6 /2) x 60 caps per hour. Putting letters back this is 60c/m.If you divide the required number of caps (b) by the caps per hour you will get time taken in hours. This gives bm/60c

Let Price be Rs.100

1st CASE:

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.
