Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

Interest received by A from B = 10% of half of Rs.50000 = 10% of Rs. 25000 = Rs.2500.

Amount received by A per annum for being a working partner = 1500 x 12 = Rs.18000

Let 'P' be the part of the remaining profit that A receives as his share.

So,total income of A = (Rs.2500 + Rs.18000 + Rs. P )

Total income of B = only his share from the remaining profit = 'P', as  A and B share the remaining profit equally.

We know that income of A = Twice the income of B 

So, (2500 + 18000 + P ) = 2(P)

P = 20500

Thus, the total profit = 2P + Rs.18000

= 2(20500) + 18000 = Rs.59000.

Speed = 9 km/hr = 9 x (5/18) m/sec = 5/2 m/sec   

Distance = (35 x 4) m = 140 m.

Time taken = 140 x (2/5) sec= 56 sec

 Lot the total number of workers be v Then,

8OOOv = (12000 * 7) + 6000 (v - 7) <=>  2000v = 42000  <=>  v = 21.

(2 x 14) men +(7 x 14) boys = (3 x 11) men + (8 x 11) boys

 =>5 men= 10 boys    => 1man= 2 boys

 Therefore, (2 men+ 7 boys) = (2 x 2 +7) boys = 11 boys

( 8 men + 6 boys) = (8 x 2 +6) boys = 22 boys.

 Let the required  number of days be x.

 More boys , Less days     (Indirect proportion)

 More work , More days    (Direct proportion)

 Boys22:11Work1 : 3⋮⋮ 14:x

 Therefore, (22 * 1 * x) = (11 * 3 * 14)

=> x = 21 

Hence, the required number of days = 21

41% of 600 - 250 = ? - 77% of 900

⇒ 246 - 250 = ? - 693

⇒ 246 -250 + 693 = ?

⇒ ? = 689

Milk = 3/5 x 20 = 12 liters, water = 8 liters

If 10 liters of mixture are removed, amount of milk removed = 6 liters and amount of water removed = 4 liters.

Remaining milk = 12 - 6 = 6 liters

Remaining water = 8 - 4 = 4 liters

10 liters of pure milk are added, therefore total milk = (6 + 10) = 16 liters.

The ratio of milk and water in the new mixture = 16:4 = 4:1

If the process is repeated one more time and 10 liters of the mixture are removed,
then amount of milk removed = 4/5 x 10 = 8 liters.

Amount of water removed = 2 liters.

Remaining milk = (16 - 8) = 8 liters.

Remaining water = (4 -2) = 2 liters.

Now 10 lts milk is added => total milk = 18 lts

The required ratio of milk and water in the final mixture obtained

= (8 + 10):2 = 18:2 = 9:1.

Cost Price of 2 dozen oranges Rs. (5 + 4) = Rs. 9.
Sell price of 2 dozen oranges = Rs. 11.
If profit is Rs 2, oranges bought = 2 dozen.
If profit is Rs. 50, oranges bought = (2/2) * 50 dozens = 50 dozens.
