   D. 83
   E. None
   
   Answer

   Answer – D. 83
   Solution :
   Ramu Marks in English be X then
   ((x+83+87)/3 + 100 + (87+83+85)/3 +(99+97)/2 +79)/5 = 90
   Ramu’s English marks is 94 which is same as Ravi’s telugu marks
   Then Ravi’s Java Marks will be
   ((98+96+94)/3 + 100 + (99+100+95)/3 +(98+98)/2 + java) ) /5 = 95
   Java marks = 83

10. Two containers A & B are having volumes 140 Litre and 60 litres filled with oil having different prices. Now equal quantities are withdrawn from both containers A & B such oil drawn from A is poured in B and oil drawn from B is poured in A . Then the price per litre becomes equal in both the containers. Then what is amount of oil drawn from B in litres
    A. 32
    B. 36
    C. 42
    D. 48
    E. Cannot be determined
    
    Answer

    Answer – C. 42
    Solution:
    Let price of oil in container A is R and price of oil in container in B is P
    Then total price of A is 140*R
    Total of Price of B is 60*R
    Now suppose L litres are withdrawn and replaced
    Then the price of oil in Container A will be (140*R – L*R + L *P)
    Price of one litre is (140*R – L*R – L *P)/140
    Similarly price of oil in container B is (60*P – L*P + L *R)
    Price of one ltre is (60*P – L*P + L *R)/60
    Now both prices are equal
    Solving equations we get L is 42
