Q:

There are 100 students in 3 sections A, B and C of a class. The average marks of all the three sections was 84. The average of B and C was 87.5 and the average marks of students in A section was :

A) 20 B) 35
C) 54 D) 40
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 20

Explanation:

Numbers of students in section A = x
∴ Numbers of students in section B and C = (100 – x)
∴ x 70 + (100 – x) 87.5 = 84 100
=> 70x + 87.5 100 – 87.5x = 8400
=> 8750 – 17.5x = 8400
=> 17.5x = 8750 – 8400 => x = 20.

Q:

How many Indian states share border with Myanmar  ?

A) 6 B) 7
C) 3 D) 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 4

Explanation:

The four northeast Indian states share 1,643-km border with Myanmar – Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Mizoram and Manipur. It is in news recently, because the Indian Government has set up an expert committee to examine the rules which allow free movement of Indian and Myanmarese citizens within 16 kms of the border, but are exploited by militants for smuggling arms, drugs, and fake Indian currency. The committee will be headed by the special secretary (Internal Security) in the Ministry of Home Affairs. The committee will give its report for uniform and effective implementation of free movement regime within 3 months. It will also prepare standard operating procedures common for all the four states so that militants, criminals and contraband are filtered at the border without causing inconvenience to genuine people.

Q:

A, B, C and D enter into partnership. A subscribes 1/3 of the capital B 1/4, C 1/5 and D the rest. How much share did A get in a profit of Rs.2490 ?

A) Rs. 820 B) Rs. 830
C) Rs. 840 D) Rs. 850
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 830

Explanation:

Let the total amount in the partnership be 'x'.
Then A's share = x/3
B's share = x/4
C's share = x/5
D's share = x - (x/3 + x/4 +x/5) = 13x/60

A : B : C : D = x/3 : x/4 : x/5 : 13x/60 = 20 : 15 : 12 : 13

A's share in the profit of Rs. 2490 = 20 (2490/60) = Rs. 830.

Q:

A and B invests Rs.10000 each, A investing for 8 months and B investing for all the 12 months in the year. If the total profit at the end of the year is Rs.25000, find their shares?

A) 10000 and 15000 B) 15000 and 10000
C) 5000 and 20000 D) 20000 and 5000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 10000 and 15000

Explanation:

As both A and B invest the same amounts, the ratio of their profits at the end of the year is equal to the ratio of the time periods for which they have invested.

 

Thus, the required ratio of their profits = A : B = 8 : 12 = 2 : 3.

 

Hence, share of A in the total profit = 2 x 25000/5 = Rs.10000

 

Similarly, share of B in the total profit = 3 x 25000/5 = Rs.15000

Q:

A box contains 3 blue marbles, 4 red, 6 green marbles and 2 yellow marbles. If two marbles are picked at random, what is the probability that they are either blue or yellow ?

A) 3/17 B) 4/21
C) 2/21 D) 5/17
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 2/21

Explanation:

Given that there are three blue marbles, four red marbles, six green marbles and two yellow marbles.

 

Probability that both marbles are blue = ³C₂/¹⁵C₂ = (3 x 2)/(15 x 14) = 1/35

Probability that both are yellow = ²C₂/¹⁵C₂ = (2 x 1)/(15 x 14) = 1/105

Probability that one blue and other is yellow = (³C₁ x ²C₁)/¹⁵C₂ = (2 x 3 x 2)/(15 x 14) = 2/35

 

Required probability = 1/35 + 1/105 + 2/35 = 3/35 + 1/105 = 1/35(3 + 1/3) = 10/(3 x 35) = 2/21
