Q:

The circumferences of two circles are 264 meters and 352 meters. Find the difference between the areas of the larger and the smaller circles ?

A) 2413 sq.m	B) 1234 sq.m
C) 4312 sq.m	D) 2143 sq.m

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 4312 sq.m

Explanation:

Let the radii of the smaller and the larger circles be 's' m and 'l' m respectively.

$2 πs$ = 264 and $2 πl$ = 352

s = $\frac{264}{2 π}$ and l = $\frac{352}{2 π}$

Difference between the areas = $π l^{2} - π s^{2}$

= $π (\frac{176^{2}}{π^{2}} - \frac{132^{2}}{π^{2}})$

= $\frac{1762}{π} - \frac{1322}{π}$

= (176 - 132)(176 + 132) / $π$

= (44 x 308) / (22/7) = 4312 sq.m

Q:

Divide Rs.118000 among three persons A, B and C such that the ratio of the shares of A and B is 3:4 and that of B:C is 5:6 ?

A) A = 48000 B = 40000 C = 30000	B) A = 30000 B = 40000 C = 48000
C) A = 30000 B = 48000 C = 40000	D) A = 40000 B = 48000 C = 30000

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) A = 30000 B = 40000 C = 48000

Explanation:

Compound ratio of A:B:C
A:B = 3:4
B:C = 5:6
----------
A:B:C = 15:20:24

We can divide Rs.118000 in this ratio.

Share of A = 15/59 x 118000 = 30000

Share of B = 20/59 x 118000 = 40000

Share of C = 24/59 x 118000 = 48000

Q:

John sells his laptop to Mark at a loss of 20% who subsequently sells it to Kevin at a profit of 25%. Kevin after finding some defect in the laptop, returns it to Mark but could recover only Rs.4.50 for every Rs. 5 he had paid. Find the amount of Kevin’s loss if John had paid Rs. 1,75,000 for the laptop ?

A) Rs.16,500	B) Rs.17,500
C) Rs.14,200	D) Rs.15,520

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs.17,500

Explanation:

Let’s assume John bought the laptop for Rs. 100
He then sells it to Mark at a loss of 20% => Rs. 80,
Who consequently sells it to Kevin at a profit of 25% => Rs. 100
Then, Kevin sells it back to Mark for Rs. 90 (Rs.4.50 for every Rs. 5 that he had paid initially), so he suffers a loss of Rs. 10
Therefore, for Rs. 100 there is a loss of Rs. 10,
Then for Rs. 1,75,000 there will be a loss of Rs. 17,500.
