Q:

At an examination in which maximum marks are 500. P got 10% less than Q, Q got 25% more than R and R got 20% less than S. If P got 360 marks what percentage of marks was obtained by S ?

A) 77 B) 74
C) 80 D) 83
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 80

Explanation:

Let marks obtained by S = M

R's marks = 0.80M

Q's marks = 1.25 (0.80M)

P's marks = (0.90) (1.25) (0.80M)

= 0.9M

But 0.9M = 360

M = ?

M = 400

Hence % of marks obtained by S

= 400/500 x 100 = 80%.

Q:

Srinivas bought 10 cycles for Rs. 1,750 each. He sold 4 cycles for Rs 8,400, 3 for Rs 1900 each . At what price should he sell the remaining cycles so as to earn an average profit of Rs 320 per cycle ?

A) Rs. 1580 B) Rs. 2200
C) Rs. 1785 D) Rs. 1950
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 2200

Explanation:

He sold 4 cycles for Rs. 8400
[It means each cycle price is Rs. 2100]
And again he sold 3 cycles for Rs. 1900 each
If he want to gain avg profit on each cycle is Rs. 320 per cycle.
So profit for 10 cycles is @ Rs.320 is,
10 x 320 = Rs. 3200
He already got Rs. 1850 profit by selling 7 cycles.
Now, remaining amount is 3200 - 1850 = 1350
So from remaining 3 cycles we want to get Rs. 1350 profit ,
1350/3 = 450
so he must sell remaining 3 cycles at Rs. 2200 each one.

Q:

A trader marked the price of the T.V. 30% above the cost price of the T.V. and gave the purchaser 10% discount on the marked price, thereby gaining Rs.340. Find the cost price of the T.V ?

A) Rs. 2000 B) Rs. 1600
C) Rs. 2200 D) Rs. 2100
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 2000

Explanation:

Let 'x' be the cost price.
Now Marked price = x + 30x/100 = 13x/10
10% discount = 10/100 x 13x/10 = 13x/100
Selling price = 13x/10 - 13x/100 = 117x/100
Given gain = 340
Here gain = 117x/100 - x = 17x/100 = 340 => x = Rs. 2000.

Q:

Rajeev start a business with Rs. 10000, Deepu joins him after 2 month with 20% more investment than Rajeev, after 2 month Shakti joins him with 40% less than Deepu. If the profit earned by them at the end of the year is equal to the twice of the difference between investment of Rajeev and ten times the investment of Shakti. Find the profit of Rajeev ?

A) 50000 B) 48000
C) 38000 D) 40000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 38000

Explanation:

Here from the given information,

The ratio of investments of Rajeev, Deepu & Shakti is

R : D : S = (10000 × 12) : (12000 × 10) : (7200 × 8)

= 25 : 25 : 12

Now the Profit = 2 × (72000-10000) = 124000

Share of Rajeev = 124000 x 25/62 = 48000

Profit of Rajeev = 48000 - 10000 = 38000
