Q:

Rohan spends 24% of an amount of money on an insurance policy, 34% on food, 19% on children’s education and 17% on recreation. He deposits the remaining amount of Rs. 540 in bank. How much total amount does he spend on food and insurance policy together?

A) Rs. 6350 B) Rs. 5220
C) Rs. 5890 D) Rs. 6458
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 5220

Explanation:

Remaining % of amount with Rohan

= 100 - (24 + 34 + 17 + 19)

= 100 - 94

= 6%

=> 6% = 540

=> 100% = ?

540 x 100/6 = Rs. 9000

Now, Money spent on insurance and food is

= 34 + 24 = 58% of 9000

= 58 x 9000/100

= 58 x 90

= Rs. 5220

Q:

M can complete a piece of work in 10 days. N is 33.33% less efficient than M. calculate the number of days required to both to complete the work?

A) 6 days B) 8 days
C) 11 days D) 13 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 6 days

Explanation:

M = 10 days

The ratio of efficiency of M & N are 3 : 2

Hence, the time rquired for N alone = 15 days

=> Required time taken t=by both to complete the work = M x N / M + N 

= 10 x 15/ 10 + 15

= 150/25

= 6 days.

Q:

Kramer borrowed $4000 from George at an interest rate of 7% compounded semiannually. The loan is to be repaid by three payments. The first payment, $1000, is due two years after the date of the loan. The second and third payments are due three and five years, respectively, after the initial loan. Calculate the amounts of the second and third payments if the second payment is to be twice the size of the third payment.

A) 1389 B) 1359
C) 1379 D) 1339.33
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 1339.33

Explanation:

Given:j=7% compounded semiannually making m=2 and i = j/m= 7%/2 = 3.5%
Let x represent the third payment. Then the second payment must be 2x.
PV1,PV2, andPV3 represent the present values of the first, second, and third payments.

Since the sum of the present values of all payments equals the original loan, then
PV1 + PV2  +PV3  =$4000 -------(1)

PV1   =FV/(1 + i)^n  =$1000/(1.035)^4=  $871.44

At first, we may be stumped as to how to proceed for
PV2 and PV3. Let’s think about the third payment of x dollars. We can compute the present value of just $1 from the x dollars

pv=1/(1.035)^10=0.7089188

PV2   =2x * 0.7089188 = 1.6270013x
PV3   =x * 0.7089188=0.7089188x
Now substitute these values into equation ➀ and solve for x.
$871.442 + 1.6270013x + 0.7089188x  =$4000

2.3359201x  =$3128.558

x=$1339.326
Kramer’s second payment will be 2($1339.326)  =$2678.65, and the third payment will be $1339.33

Q:

A 150 m long train crosses another 210 m long train running in the opposite direction in 10.8 seconds. If the shorter train crosses a pole in 12 seconds, what is the speed of longer train ?

A) 75 kmph B) 80 kmph
C) 54 kmph D) 45 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 75 kmph

Explanation:

Total distance = 150 + 210 = 360 mts

Time taken to cross each other when moving in opposite direction = 10.8 sec

Relative speed of trains = (350/10.8) x 18/5 = 3600/30 = 120 kmph

Speed of shorter train = (150/12) x 18/5 = 45 kmph

 

Hence, speed of longer train = 120 - 45 = 75 kmph.

Q:

A watch which gains uniformly is 2 minutes low at noon on Tuesday and is 4 min 48 sec fast at 2 p.m. on the following Tuesday. When was it correct ?

A) 12 p.m. on Wednesday B) 2 p.m. on Thursday
C) 3 p.m. on Thursday D) 2 p.m. on Wednesday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 2 p.m. on Thursday

Explanation:

Time from 12 p.m. on Tuesday to 2 p.m. on the following Tuesday = 7 days 2 hours.
= 170 hours.
The watch gains = (2 + 4 x 4/5) min
= 34/5 min. in 170 hrs.
Now, 34/5 min are gained in 170 hrs.
Then, 2 min are gained in (170 x 5/34 x 2) hrs.
Watch is correct after 2 days 2 hrs after 12 p.m. on Tuesday, i.e., it will be correct at 2 p.m. on Thursday.
