A alone can finish a piece of work in 42 days. B is 20% more efficient than A and C is 40% more efficient than B. In how many days B and C working together can finish the same piece of work? (in days)1). $$11\frac{5}{12}$$2). $$13\frac{5}{12}$$3). $$15\frac{1}{12}$$4). $$14\frac{7}{12}$$

Answer»

Solution

Let rate at which A finishes the work = $100x$ units/day

=> Rate at which B finishes the work = $\FRAC{120}{100} \times 100x = 120x$ units/day

Rate at which C finishes the work = $\frac{140}{100} \times 120x = 168x$ units/day

Work done by A in 42 DAYS = $42 \times 100x = 4200x$ units/day

Rate at which B and C finishes the work = $120x + 168x = 288x$ units/day

$\therefore$ Time taken by B and C TOGETHER to finish the same work = $\frac{4200x}{288x}$

= $\frac{175}{12} = 14\frac{7}{12}$ days

11.

A and B together can complete a particular task in 4 days.If A alone can complete the same task in 6 days, how many days will B take to complete the task if he works alone ?1). 82). 173). 144). 12

Answer»

Solution

Let the PIECE of WORK be W.
Let the speed of A be X and that of B be y.
Now, TOGETHER they can complete the work in 4 days.
W/(x+y) = 4, W = 4x + 4y
A alone can complete in 6 days.
W/x = 6, W = 6x.
On substituting value of W in terms of x, we get
x = 2y
y = x/2
The speed of B is half of A.
B will complete the work in 12 days.

Solution

Clearly, from each statement alone we cannot FIND the sides of the triangle, HENCE the area of triangle. Thus, by combining both statements, we get :

Let base = $4x$ m and HEIGHT = $3x$ m

Hypotenuse = $5=\sqrt{(4x)^2+(3x)^2}$

=> $16x^2+9x^2=5^2$

=> $25x^2=25$

=> $x^2=\frac{25}{25}=1$

=> $x=\sqrt{1}=1$

Thus, base = $4$ m and height = $3$ m

=> Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2}\times4\times3=6$ $m^2$

$\THEREFORE$ Both statements together are sufficient.

=> Ans - (E)

Answer»

Solution

Let the number to REPLACE the QUESTION mark be equal to X.

So, 55% of 860+X% of 450=581
Or, X% of 450 = 581 - 0.55 * 860 = 581 - 473 = 108
So, X = 108 * 100 / 450 = 24

Hence, the correct ANSWER is option (a)

The difference between 73% of a number and 58% of the same number is 960. What is 22% of that number?1). 14082). 12323). 13244). 1536

Answer»

Solution

Let the number be $100x$

Acc to ques,

=> $(73 - 58) \%$ of $100x = 960$

=> $\frac{15}{100} \times 100x = 960$

=> $x = \frac{960}{15} = 64$

=> Number = 100 * 64 = 6400

$\therefore$ 22% of 6400 = $\frac{22}{100} * 6400$

= 1408

41.

56% of a number is less than its 72% by 56. What is 70% of the that number ?1). 3002). 2353). 2404). 350

Answer»

Solution

Let the number be X.
As 56% of the number is less than its 72% by 56, it implies that (72% - 56%)*X = 56
Or, 16% of X = 56.
Therefore, X = 56*100/16 = 350

Therefore, 70% of the number is 350*70% =255.
As this is not among any of the options GIVEN, the correct answer is option (E)

42.

In a village, 30% of the villagers belong to upper economic class. The number of villagers who belong to middle economic class are 3/2 of the number of villagers who belong to lower economic class. If 6860 villagers belong to lower economic class, what is the population of the village ?1). 226002). 245003). 260004). 25500

Answer»

Solution

Let the TOTAL population of village = $100x$

Population of upper economic class = $\frac{30}{100} \TIMES 100x = 30x$

Population of lower economic class = $6860$

Population of middle economic class = $\frac{3}{2} \times 6860 = 10,290$

=> Population of middle and lower economic class

= $100x - 30x = 6860 + 10290$

=> $70x = 17150$

=> $x = \frac{17150}{70} = 245$

$\therefore$ Total population = 100 * 245 = 24500

43.

Answer»

Solution

We need to FIND the VALUE of 3.2% of 250+1.8% of 400

3.2% of 250 = 0.32 * 25 = 8
1.8% of 400 = 1.8 * 4 = 7.2

Hence, their sum equals 8+7.2 = 15.2

44.

Answer»

Solution

Expression : 60% of 20% of 3/5th of ? = 450

=> $\frac{60}{100} \times \frac{20}{100} \times \frac{3}{5} \times X = 450$

=> $\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{1}{5} \times \frac{3}{5} \times x = 450$

=> $x = 450 \times \frac{125}{9}$

=> $x = 50 \times 125 = 6250$

45.

Answer»

Solution

Productivity = $\frac{\textrm{TOTAL Production}}{\textrm{Total AREA}}$

Average productivity = 2.5 tonnes/acre

Now, 60% of average productivity = $\frac{60}{100} * 2.5$ = 1.5 tonnes/acre

=> Total paddy production

= 1.5 tonnes/acre $\times$ 2 LAKH ACRES

= 3.0 lakh tonnes
