    3.Quantity 1 ≤Quantity 2
    4.Quantity 1 ≥Quantity 2
    5.Quantity 1 =Quantity 2 or No relation can be established
    Answer – 2.Quantity 1 <Quantity 2
    Explanation :
    Let CP is x.
    Then   (1920-x)/x*100= (x-1280)/x*100
    On solving x=1600
    Q1:1600*90*110/100*100 = 1584
    Q2: Selling Price = 1600*120/100= Rs. 1920

  3. A started a business investing Rs. 45000 . After 3 months B joined with a capital of Rs. 60000 and and A left after 3 months and B left after another 3 months.

    5.Quantity 1 =Quantity 2 or No relation can be established
    Answer – 2.Quantity 1 <Quantity 2
    Explanation :
    A:B:C = 45000*6+15000*3:60000*6:90000*3
    45*6+15*3 : 60*6 : 90*3 = 315:360:270
    63:72:54 => 21:24:18: 7:8:6
    Q1:16500*7/21 = 5500+45000 = 50,500
    Q2: 16500*8/21 = 6285+60,000 = 66, 285

  4. Ages of A and B are in the ratio 1 : 2 and that of B and C are in the ratio of 3 : 4. Also 2 years hence the average of their ages was 14 years.
    Quantity 1: Present Age of C
    Quantity 2: Age of B after 4 years
    1.Quantity 1 >Quantity 2
    2.Quantity 1 <Quantity 2
    3.Quantity 1 ≤Quantity 2
    4.Quantity 1 ≥Quantity 2
    5.Quantity 1 =Quantity 2 or No relation can be established
    Answer – 5.Quantity 1 =Quantity 2 or No relation can be established
    Explanation :
    A/B = 1/2, B/C = 3/4
    A : B : C = 3 : 6 : 8
    Their total ages 3x+6x+8x = 17x
    2 yrs hence, sum of their ages = 17x +(2+2+2) = 17x + 8
    So (17x+6)/3 = 14
    17x+6 = 42
    X = 2.1 = 2
    A:B:C => 6:12:16

  5. The average marks of M, N and O are 428. The total marks of N and O is 854 and sum of marks of O and M is 914.
    Quantity 1: The marks of M
    Quantity 2: The marks of O
    1.Quantity 1 >Quantity 2
    2.Quantity 1 <Quantity 2
    3.Quantity 1 ≤Quantity 2
    4.Quantity 1 ≥Quantity 2
    5.Quantity 1 =Quantity 2 or No relation can be established
    Answer – 2.Quantity 1 <Quantity 2
    Explanation :
    Total M+N+O=> 1284
    N+O = 854
    M = 1284 – 854 = 430
    N = 1284-914= 370
    O = 854-370 = 484

  6. Two pipes P and Q can fill the tank in 4 and 2 mins respectively.Both the pipes are opened simultaneously. The bucket is filed in 1 mins
    Quantity 1: If B is turned off after how many minutes
    Quantity 2: If A is turned off after how many minutes

    3.Quantity 1 ≤Quantity 2
    4.Quantity 1 ≥Quantity 2
    5.Quantity 1 =Quantity 2 or No relation can be established
    Answer – 1.Quantity 1 >Quantity 2
    Explanation :
    If B
    1/4 +x/2 = 1
    1+2x=4
    X = 3/2 min = 1.5
    If A
    x/4+ 1/2 = 1
    x+2 =4
    x = 2 min
