    1.Rs.2000
    2.Rs.3000
    3.Rs.4000
    4.Rs.5000
    5.Cannot be determined
    Answer – 5.Cannot be determined
    Explanation :
    (X+1400)*R*2/100 – (X*8*T)/100 =189
    Cannot be determined

  2. The ratio of the speed of boat downstream and speed of the stream is 9:1, the speed of the current is 3 km per hr, find the distance traveled upstream in 5 hours.

    3.135 Km
    4.150 Km
    5.Cannot be determined
    Answer – 1.105 Km
    Explanation :
    D = S+R ; U = S-R
    S+R/R = 9/1
    R = 3
    S+R = 27 S = 24
    D = (24-3)*5 = 105

  3. The sum of four consecutive even numbers is greater than three consecutive odd numbers by 81. If the sum of last odd and last even number is 41, then find the difference between the largest odd and the largest even number.
    1.7
    2.17
    3.19
    4.31
    5.Cannot be determined
    Answer – 3.19
    Explanation :
    Let even numbers be x, x+2, x+4, x+6
    Let odd numbers be y, y+2, y+4
    Then 4x-3y =75
    x+y = 31
    x = 24 y = 7
    largest even = 30 largest odd = 11
    difference = 19

  4. The average age of A and B, 2 years ago was 26. If the age of A, 5 years hence is 40 yrs, and B is 5 years younger to C, then find the difference between the age of A and C?

    5.17
    Answer – 1.9
    Explanation :
    A+B = 56
    A+5 = 40
    A = 35
    B= 21
    C =21+5 = 26
    A-C = 35-26 = 9

  5. The average of X, Y, Z is 24, X:Y = 2:3, X+Y = 60, then find X-Y=?
    1.-6
    2.-12
    3.6
    4.12
    5.18
    Answer – 2.-12
    Explanation :
    X + Y = 60; X:Y = 2:3
    X = 24 Y = 36
    X-Y = -12

  6. A can do a piece of work in 24 days, B is 20% more efficient than A if C can do the same work in 10 more days than B, find days taken by A and C together to complete the work.
    1.20 days
    2.30 days
    3.40 days
    4.20/3 days
    5.40/3 days
    Answer – 5.40/3 days
    Explanation :
    B can complete in 20 days
    C can do it in 30 days
    A and C can complete in 40/3 days

  7. The cost price of two articles is same, trade man got a profit of 40% on the first article, selling price of the second article is 25% less than the first article, then find profit percent obtained on the second article.
