31) Answer: D Amount invested in scheme A = Rs.2400
Let speeds of car and bike are ‘10x’ m/s and ‘9x’ Amount invested in scheme B = 4000 – 2400 =
m/s, respectively. Rs.1600
Since distance between car and bus is 320 m Required ratio = 2400: 1600 = 3: 2
and that between bike and bus is 240 m.
So, distance between car and bike = 320 – 240 33) Answer: B
= 80 m Let number of 1 rupee and 50 paise coins in the
From the question: bag are ‘3x’ and ‘4’x respectively
320/(10x – 12) = 240/(9x – 12) Since difference between the number of 1 rupee

(10x – 8x)/4= 8 35) Answer: B

x = 16 Let initial quantity of milk in the tank = ‘10x’ L
Value of 1-rupee coins in the bag = 3 * 16 * 1 = After replacing 20% milk with same quantity of
Rs.48 water:
Value of 50 paise coins in the bag = 4 * 16 * Quantity of milk in the tank = 80% of ‘10x’ = ‘8x’
(1/2) = Rs.32 L
Required difference = 48 – 32 = Rs.16 And quantity of water in the tank = 10x – 8x =
‘2x’ L
34) Answer: D After replacing 50% of this mixture with same
Since time taken by A and B together to quantity of water:
complete the work = 18 minutes Quantity of milk in the tank = 50% of ‘8x’ = ‘4x’ L
So, (1/A)+ (1/B)=1/18 --------------(1) And quantity of water in the tank = 50% of ‘2x’ +
Since time taken by A and C together to 50% of ‘10x’ = ‘6x’ L
complete the work = time taken by B alone to From the question:
complete the work. 6x – 4x = 6
So, (1/A)+ (1/C) = (1/B) --------------(2) x=3
From equation (1) and (2): So, initial quantity of milk in the tank = 3 * 10 =
(1/A)+ (1/A)+ (1/C)=1/18 30 L
(2/A)+ (1/C)=1/18 --------------(3)
Since C is 100% more efficient than A. 36) Answer: C
So, (2/2C)+ (1/C) = 1/18 Let P’s investment = ‘8x’ rupees
C = 36 minutes So, Q’s investment = 62.5% of ‘8x’ = ‘5x’ rupees
From equation (3): And R’s investment = 2 * 5x = ‘10x’ rupees
2/A= (1/18)– (1/36)=(2 – 1)/36=1/36 Time period for P’s investment = 5 months
A = 72 minutes Time period for Q’s investment = 7 months
From equation (1): Time period for R’s investment = (t – 12) months
1/B= (1/18)– (1/72)=(4 – 1)/72=1/24 So,
B = 24 (5x * 7) + [10x * (t – 12)] = (8x * 5) * (162.5/100)
Work done by A, B and C together in 1 minute: 35 + 10t – 120 = 40 * (13/8)
(1/72)+ (1/24)+ (1/36)=(1 + 3 + 2)/72=1/12 10t – 85 = 65
So, time taken by A, B and C together to t = 15
complete the work = 12 minutes

From the question: So, part of tank filled in first 3 minutes = (7/180)*
800/n = (840/n) – n * (125/800) 3 = 7/60
5n/32 = (840/n) – (800/n) Let part of tank filled by pipe B in 1 minute =
5n/32=40/n ‘10x’
n2 = 256 Since efficiencies of A and C are respectively
n = 16 60% and 50% of that of B.
Required average = 800/16 = 50 kg So, part of tank filled by pipe A in 1 minute =
60% of ‘10x’ = 6x
38) Answer: B And part of tank filled by pipe C in 1 minute =
119 = 17 * 7 50% of ‘10x’ = 5x
245 = 5 * 7 * 7 So, part of tank filled by pipe A in 1 minute =
HCF of 119 and 187 = 7 (7/60)* (6x/21x)=1/30
Now, we have to find the remainder when And part of tank filled by pipe B in 1 minute =
17231 is divided by 7. (7/60)* (10x/21x)=1/18
Remainder when 171 is divided by 7 = 3 Now, part of tank filled by pipes A and B
Remainder when 172 is divided by 7 = 2 together in 1 minute:
Remainder when 173 is divided by 7 = 6 (1/30)+ (1/18)=(3 + 5)/90=8/90=4/45
Remainder when 174 is divided by 7 = 4 So, time taken by pipes A and B together to fill
Remainder when 175 is divided by 7 = 5 the tank = 45/4 = 11 minutes 15 seconds
Remainder when 176 is divided by 7 = 1
Remainder when 177 is divided by 7 = 3 40) Answer: A
Remainder when 176n is divided by 7 is 1. [‘n’ is 321 – 1 = 320
a natural number.] 320 – 11 = 309
309 – 21 = 288
Remainder when (176)38 is divided by 7 is 1 288 – 31 = 257
while remainder when 173 is divided by 7 is 6. 257 – 41 = 216
Required remainder = 1 * 6
=6 41) Answer: C
18 + 3 = 21

Required ratio = 1080:900
43) Answer: A = 6:5
11 + 11 * 1 = 22
22 + 13 * 2 = 48 47) Answer: D
48 + 17 * 3 = 99 Number of palm trees in Mumbai = 1200
99 + 19 * 4 = 175 Number of Neem trees = 1200 * 25/100 = 300
175 + 23 * 5 = 290 Number of Mango trees = 140/100 * 300 = 420
Number of coconut trees = 8/7 * 420 = 480
44) Answer: C
31 + 45 = 76 48) Answer: E
76 + 36 = 112 Number of palm trees in Shimla = (880 * 2) –
112 + 26 = 138 1200
138 + 15 = 153 = 560
153 + 3 = 156 Number of palm trees in Chennai = 1800
Difference = 1800 – 560 = 1240
45) Answer: C
Number of palm trees in Chennai = 108/360 * 49) Answer: B
6000 = 1800 Number of palm trees in Patna = 7/3 * 900
Number of palm trees in Mumbai = 72/360 * = 2100
6000 = 1200 Number of palm trees in Bangalore = 1080
Number of palm trees in Hyderabad = 54/360 * Required percentage = 1080/2100 * 100

120% of 30% of 450 + 5103 ÷ √6561 = ?2
162 + 63 = ?2 57) Answer: A
? = 15 ((x + 400)* 6 + (x + 400)* 3/4 * 6)/((x – 1200)*
12)=(13000 – 6000)/6000
51) Answer: C (10.5x + 4200)/(12x – 14400)=7/6
562 – 28 * 97 + 6 * 93 = ? * ∛216 84x – 100800 = 63x + 25200

52) Answer: A Length of rectangle = 4x
(83 * 27) ÷ (112 - √9409) = ? * 24 Breadth of rectangle = 4x * 75/100 = 3x
576 = ? * 24 2 * (4x + 3x)=1050/15
? = 24 x=5
Breadth of the rectangle = 5 * 3 = 15 m
53) Answer: A Side of the cube = 15 * 2/3 = 10 m
Surface area of the cube = 6 * 10 * 10 = 600 m2

6 + 14 = ? 59) Answer: A

? = 20 CP of TV = 100x
MP of TV = 100x *140/100= 140x
