We have included some questions that are repeatedly asked in exams !!!
- What is the area of a right angle triangle ?
I.The base of a triangle is 12cm
II.The height of a triangle is 19cm
III.The hypotenuse of the triangle is 25cm
1.Only I is sufficient
2.Only II is sufficient
3.Only III is sufficient
4.Any two of the three are sufficient
5.None of theseAnswer -4.Any two of the three
Explanation :
Area = ab/2
From hypotenuse and one side we can find other side of the traingle - What is the rate of interest per annum ?
I.An amount double itself at SI in 10 years
II.The difference between SI and CI on an amount of Rs.20,000 in 2 years is Rs.200
III.The CI accured in 8 years is more than the amount.
1.Either I or II is sufficient
2.Both I and II are sufficient
3.Both II and III are sufficient
4.Either I or III is sufficient
5.None of theseAnswer –1.Either I or II is sufficient
Explanation :
From I :
Principal = P, Amount = 2P
Interest = 2P – P = P
SI =P = P*R*10/100 => R = 10%
From II
R = (200/20000)1/2 * 100 =10% - What is a two digit number ?
I.The sum and the difference of the digits are 12 and 5 respectively
II.The number is divisible by 5
1.If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
2.If the data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.

Explanation :
X+y = 12
x-y = 2
solve this 2 Equ u will get the value of X and Y and also that no should be divsible by 5 - What was the population of a State in 2000 ?

5.If the data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.Answer – 3.If the data either in statement I alone or statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
Explanation :
From I =>1,50,200*112/100*112/100
From II => 2*98,000 - What was the % of discount given on the marked price of a Refrigerator ?
I.11% profit was earned by selling the Refrigerator for Rs.17,650.Had there been no discount, the profit % would have been 25%
II.The CP of the Refrigerator was Rs.15,200
1.If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
2.If the data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
3.If the data either in statement I alone or statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
4. If the data given in both I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
5.If the data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.Answer – 1.If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
Explanation :
CP = 17650*100/110 = 16045
MP = 16045*125/100 = 20,056
% = 20,056-17650/20,056 *100 = 12% - What is the speed of the car ?
I.The bus takes 2hrs more than the train to cover a distance of 220km
II.The car moves 17kmph faster than bus
1.If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
2.If the data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
3.If the data either in statement I alone or statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
4. If the data given in both I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
5.If the data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.Answer – 5.If the data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.
Explanation :
Time taken by bus = t+2hrs
Speed of the car = S+17
D = 220km
S = 220/t+2
S+17 = 220/t
Equate this two to find the speed - What is the area of the circle ?
I.The diameter of the circle is 70cm less than its cicumference
II.The radius of the circle is equal to the length of a rectangle whose perimeter is 64cm
1.If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
2.If the data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
3.If the data either in statement I alone or statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
4. If the data given in both I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
5.If the data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.Answer – 1.If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
Explanation :
D = 2r
2*3.14*r – 70 = 2r
2*3.14*r – 2r= 70
2r(6.28-1) = 70
R = 70/10.56 = 6.6
Area = 3.14*6.6*6.6 - The age of A and B are in the ratio of 5:8, what is the age of A ?
I.The ages of A and C are in the ratio 7:9
II.After 4 years the ratio of A to B’s age will be 6:5

4.Any two of the three are Sufficient
5.None of theseAnswer – 3. All I, II and III are Sufficient
Explanation :
From statements II and III
Profit on each article = 800 – 680 = 120
From statements I, II and III
Number of articles sold
=2160/120 = 18
