Q:

A Shopkeeper sells two articles at Rs.1000 each, making a profit of 20% on the first article and a loss of 20% on the second article. Find the net Profit or loss that he makes?

A) 4%	B) 5%
C) 6%	D) 8%

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4%

Explanation:

SP of first article = Rs.1000

Profit = 20%

$C P = S P x \frac{100}{100 + P %} = R s . \frac{2500}{3}$

SP of Second Article = Rs.1000

Loss = 20%

$C P = S P x \frac{100}{100 - L %} = R s . 1250$

So, Total SP = Rs.2000; Total CP = Rs.6250/3

As the CP is more than SP, he makes a loss.

Loss = CP - SP = (6250/3) - 2000 = Rs.(250/3)

So, Loss Percent = Lossx100/CP = 4%

Answer

1. ANSWER : C

Explanation - Number of students who passed half-yearly exams in the school

= (Number of students passed in half-yearly but failed in annual exams) + (Number of students passed in both exams)
= (6 + 17 + 9 + 15) + (64 + 55 + 46 + 76)

= 288.

Also, Number of students who passed annual exams in the school

= (Number of students failed in half-yearly but passed in annual exams) + (Number of students passed in both exams)

= (14 + 12 + 8 + 13) + (64 + 55 + 46 + 76)

= 288.

Since, the number of students passed in half-yearly = the number of students passed in annual exams. Therefore, it can be inferred that both the examinations had almost the same difficulty level.

Thus Statements (a), (b) and (d) are false and Statement (c) is true.

2. ANSWER : D

Explanation - Since the classification of the students on the basis of their results and sections form independent groups, so the total number of students in the class:

= (28 + 23 + 17 + 27 + 14 + 12 + 8 + 13 + 6 + 17 + 9 + 15 + 64 + 55 + 46 + 76)

= 430.

3. ANSWER : D

Explanation- Pass percentages in at least one of the two examinations for different sections are:

For Section A = $\frac{14 + 6 + 64}{28 + 14 + 6 + 64} \times 100 = \frac{84}{112} \times 100$ % = 75%

For Section B = $\frac{12 + 17 + 55}{23 + 12 + 17 + 55} \times 100$ % = 78.5%

For Section C = $\frac{8 + 9 + 46}{17 + 8 + 9 + 46} \times 100$ %= 78.75%

For Section D = $\frac{13 + 15 + 76}{27 + 13 + 15 + 76} \times 100$ %= 79.39%

Clearly ,the pass percentage is maximum for Section D

4. ANSWER : A

Explanation - Total number of students passed in annual exams in a section

= [ (No. of students failed in half-yearly but passed in annual exams) + (No. of students passed in both exams) ] in that section

Success rate in annual exams in Section A= $\frac{14 + 64}{112} \times 100$ % = 69.64%

Similarly, success rate in annual exams in:

Section B = $\frac{12 + 55}{107} \times 100$ % = 62.62%

Section C = $\frac{8 + 46}{80} \times 100$ % = 67.5%

Section D = $\frac{89}{131} \times 100$ % = 67.94%

Clearly, the success rate in annual examination is maximum for Section A.

5. ANSWER : D

Explanation - Total number of failures in half-yearly exams in a section

= [ (Number of students failed in both exams) + (Number of students failed in half-yearly but passed in Annual exams) ] in that section

Failure rate in half-yearly exams in Section A %= 37.5 %

Similarly, failure rate in half-yearly exams in:

Section B = 32.71%

Section C = 31.25%

Section D = 30.53%

Clearly, the failure rate is minimum for Section D.

= (Number of students passed in half-yearly but failed in annual exams) + (Number of students passed in both exams)

= (6 + 17 + 9 + 15) + (64 + 55 + 46 + 76)

= 288.

Also, Number of students who passed annual exams in the school

= (Number of students failed in half-yearly but passed in annual exams) + (Number of students passed in both exams)

= (14 + 12 + 8 + 13) + (64 + 55 + 46 + 76)

= 288.

Since, the number of students passed in half-yearly = the number of students passed in annual exams. Therefore, it can be inferred that both the examinations had almost the same difficulty level.

Thus Statements (a), (b) and (d) are false and Statement (c) is true.

Q:

In a group of persons travelling in a bus, 6 persons can speak Tamil, 15 can speak Hindi and 6 can speak Gujarati. In that group, none can speak any other language. If 2 persons in the group can speak two languages and one person can speak all the three languages, then how many persons are there in the group ?

A) 21	B) 22
C) 23	D) 24

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 23

Explanation:

Let us assume the two persons who can speak two languages speak Hindi and Tamil. The third person then speaks all the three languages.

Tamil – Number of persons who can speak is 6. Only Tamil 6 – 2 – 1 = 3

Hindi - Number of persons who can speak is 15. Only Hindi 15 – 2 – 1 12

Gujarati – Number of persons who can speak is 6. Only Gujarati 6 – 1 = 5

Thus the number of persons who can speak only one language is 3 + 12 + 5 = 20

Number of persons who can speak two languages = 2

Number of person who an speak all the languages = 1

Total number of persons = 23.
