51/(100 – 51) = 980 * 51/49 = 1020 restaurant P = 560 * 3/(5 + 3) = 560 * 3/8 = 210
The total number of burgers ordered = 980 +
1020 = 2000 3. Answer: A
Restaurant: M The total number of veg burgers ordered in
The number of non-veg burgers ordered = 300 * restaurants M and O together = 300 + 210 = 510
40/(100 – 40) = 300 * 40/60 = 200 Required difference = 510 – 210 = 300 more
The total number of burgers ordered = 300 + 200
= 500 4. Answer: B
Restaurant: N Required ratio = 1020:300 = 17:5
The number of non-veg burgers ordered = 350 *
30/(100 – 30) = 350 * 30/70 = 150 5. Answer: C
The total number of burgers ordered = 350 + 150 The number of veg burgers ordered in restaurant
= 500 N on Tuesday = 350 * 80/100 = 280
Restaurant: O The number of non-veg burgers ordered in
The number of non-veg burgers ordered = 210 * restaurant N on Tuesday = 150 * 4/3 = 200
50/(100 – 50) = 210 * 50/50 = 210 The total number of burgers ordered in
The total number of burgers ordered = 210 + 210 restaurant N on Tuesday = 280 + 200 = 480
= 420
6. Answer: C
The number of cars in blue color in A = 2000 *
20/100 = 400
The number of cars in blue color in C = 3000 *
(100- 70)/100 = 3000 * 30/100 = 900
1. Answer: A
The total number of cars in blue color in A and C
Required percentage = 150/500 * 100 = 30%

7. Answer: B Let the total number of green shirts sold = a

Required percentage = 1000/4000 * 100 = 25% And the total number of orange shirts sold =
a*100/60 = 5a/3
8. Answer: A And the total number of yellow shirts sold =
Required ratio = 2500:3500 = 5:7 5a/3*1/2 = 5a/6
a +5a/3+5a/6 = 420
9. Answer: D 6a+10a+5a = 2520
The total production of cars in F = 1500 * 2 = 21a = 2520
3000 a = 120
Required percentage = (3000 – 2000)/2000 * The total number of orange shirts sold = 5*120/3
100 = 1000/2000 * 100 = 50% = 200
The total number of green shirts sold = 120
10. Answer: B The total number of yellow shirts sold = 5*120/6
Required difference = 2500 – 2000 = 500 = 100

Directions (11-15):
Shop A:
Let the total number of orange shirts sold = 4x
And the total number of green shirts sold = 7x
And the total number of yellow shirts sold =
4x*1/2 = 2x 11. Answer: D
7x-2x = 200 Required difference = 280 – 100 = 180
5x = 200
x = 40 12. Answer: B
The total number of orange shirts sold = 4*40 = The total number of orange, yellow and blue
160 shirts sold by shop A = 140*3 = 420
The total number of green shirts sold = 7*40 = The total number of blue shirts sold by shop A =

14. Answer: C The time taken by the car to cover 240 km =

Required percentage = (120-100)/100 * 100 = 240/80 = 3 hours
20% more The average speed of the car = 360/(3 + 2) =
360/5 = 72 km/hr
15. Answer: B
The total number of green shirts sold by shop C 18. Answer: C
= 200*115/100 = 230 1/30 + 1/20 + 1/C = 1/10
The total number of orange shirts sold by shop C 1/C = 6/60 – 2/60 – 3/60
= 200*75/100 = 150 1/C = 1/60
Required sum = 230 + 150 = 380 C = 60
The ratio of the wages of A, B and C =
16. Answer: C 1/30:1/20:1/60 = 2:3:1
Let the present age of X and Y be 8x ad 9x The difference between the wages of A and C =
respectively. 7800 * (2 – 1)/(2 + 3 + 1) = 7800 * 1/6 = Rs.1300
(8x+5)/(9x+5) =9/10
80x+50 =81x+45 19. Answer: B
X=5 The ratio of the downstream to the upstream
The Present age of X =40 years. speed of the boat = 9:6 = 3:2
Age of X before 3 years =40-3 =37 years (3x – 2x)/2 = 4
x=8
17. Answer: C The speed of the boat in still water = (3 * 8 + 2 *
The distance covered by the car at the speed of 8)/2 = (24 + 16)/2 = 40/2 = 20 km/hr
60 km/hr = 360/3 = 120 km Required distance = 20 * 6 = 120 km
The time taken by the car to cover 120 km =
120/60 = 2 hours 20. Answer: A
The distance covered by the car at the speed of
80 km/hr = 360 – 120 = 240 km
