Q:

A man walks at a speed of 2 km/hr and runs at a speed of 6 km/hr. How much time will the man require to cover a distance of 20 1/2 km, if he completes half of the distance, i.e., (10 1/4) km on foot and the other half by running ?

A) 12.4 hrs B) 11.9 hrs
C) 10.7 hrs D) 9.9 hrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 11.9 hrs

Explanation:

We know that

Time = Distance/speed
Required time = (10 1/4)/2 + (10 1/4)/6
= 41/8 + 41/6
= 287/24 = 11.9 hours.

Q:

In an election only two candidates contested. A candidate secured 70% of the valid votes and won by a majority of 172 votes. Find the total number of valid votes  ?

A) 446 B) 415
C) 404 D) 430
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 430

Explanation:

Let the total number of valid votes be 'V'.

70% of V = 70/100 x V = 7V/10

Number of votes secured by the other candidate = V - 7V/100 = 3V/10

Given, 7V/10 - 3V/10 = 172 => 4V/10 = 172

=> 4V = 1720 => V = 430.

Q:

Solve 30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30)

A) 24.750 B) 36.975
C) 34.652 D) 26.354
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 36.975

Explanation:

30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30)

 

Now

=> 0.0825 x 30 = 2.475 -----(1)

=> 15% of 30 = 450/100 = 4.5 -----(2) 

 

Hence, from (1) & (2)

30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30)

= 30 + 2.475 + 4.5

30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30) = 36.975.

Q:

There is 50% increase in an amount in 5 years at simple interest. What will be the compound interest of Rs. 12,000 after 3 years at the same rate ?

A) Rs. 5422 B) Rs. 5489
C) Rs. 3972 D) Rs. 6145
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 3972

Explanation:

Let p = Rs. 100.

Then, S.I is Rs. 50 and time = 5 years. 

 R = 100×50100×5= 10% p.a.

 

Now, p = Rs. 12,000 , T = 3 years and R = 10% p.a.


C.I. = Rs. 12000×1+101003-1= Rs. 3972
