Q:

On a school’s Annual day sweets were to be equally distributed amongst 112 children. But on that particular day, 32 children were absent. Thus the remaining children got 6 extra sweets. How many sweets was each child originally supposed to get ?

A) 14 B) 16
C) 12 D) 15
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 15

Explanation:

Let 'K' be the total number of sweets.
Given total number of students = 112
If sweets are distributed among 112 children,
Let number of sweets each student gets = 'L'

=> K/112 = L ....(1)
But on that day students absent = 32 => remaining = 112 - 32 = 80
Then, each student gets '6' sweets extra.

=> K/80 = L + 6 ....(2)
from (1) K = 112L substitute in (2), we get
112L = 80L + 480
32L = 480
L = 15

Therefore, 15 sweets were each student originally supposed to get.

Q:

Bhim has assembled a basket of fruit as a holiday gift for each of his friends- Santosh, Tarun, Ujjwal, and Varun. A total of fifteen pieces of fruits-five apples, five oranges and five pears are distributed among the four baskets according to the following conditions: Santosh , Tarun and Ujjwal will each receive exactly two different types of fruit. Varun will receive only apples. Tarun will receive more pieces of fruit than Santosh. Each basket includes at least three pieces of fruit.

1. If Varun’s basket contains more pieces of fruit than Tarun’s basket, then Tarun’s basket must contain:
I. Four pieces of fruit.
II. At least one orange.
III. At least one pear.

(a) I only   (b) III only    (c) Botha I and II   (d) Both II and III

 

2. If Ujjwal’s basket contains more pieces of fruit than Tarun’s basket, all of the following must be false EXCEPT:

(a) Only Varun will receive apple

(b) Varun will receive exactly four apple.

(c) Ujjwal will receive exactly two apple.

(d) Tarun will receive exactly four pear.

Answer

1. Answer (b)


Santosh , Ujjwal and Varun must each receive at least three pieces, but Tarun must receive at least four pieces. The maximum number of pieces that any person may receive is six ( 6 + 3+ 3+3 = 15 ), and only Tarun may receive six pieces. Ujjwal and Varun each may receive as many as five pieces, while Santosh may receive only four pieces at maximum.
At least one pear.


 


2. Answer (c)


Varun may receive no more than five pieces and Tarun may receive no fewer than four pieces. As a result, if Varun receives more pieces than Tarun, then Varun must receive five pieces, and Tarun must receive four pieces. Thus, statement (a) must be true. Since Varun will receive five pieces, none of the other three friends will receive any apple, accordingly, each of the other three friends must receive at least one orange and at least one pear. Thus, statement (b) and (d) must be true.

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
