Q:

A drink vendor has 368 liters of Maaza, 80 liters of Pepsi and 144 liters of Sprite. He wants to pack them in cans, so that each can contains the same number of liters of a drink, and doesn't want to mix any two drinks in a can. What is the least number of cans required ?

A) 47 B) 46
C) 37 D) 35
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 37

Explanation:

The number of liters in each can = HCF of 80, 144 and 368 = 16 liters.
Number of cans of Maaza = 368/16 = 23
Number of cans of Pepsi = 80/16 = 5
Number of cans of Sprite = 144/16 = 9
The total number of cans required = 23 + 5 + 9 = 37 cans.

Q:

In a certain Business, the profit is 220% of the cost. If the cost increases by 25% but the selling price remains constant, approximately what percentage of the selling price is the profit ?

A) 61% B) 75%
C) 55% D) 81%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 61%

Explanation:

Let C.P.= Rs. 100.

Then, Profit = Rs.220, 

S.P. = Rs.320.

 

New C.P. = 125% of Rs. 100 = Rs. 125 

New S.P. = Rs.320.

Profit = Rs. (320 - 125) = Rs. 195

 

Required percentage = 195320×100== 60.9 =~ 61%

  1000 -----> 1400 -----> 980 -----> 1274 ----->1146.6

Q:

In an election only two candidates contested. A candidate secured 70% of the valid votes and won by a majority of 172 votes. Find the total number of valid votes  ?

A) 446 B) 415
C) 404 D) 430
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 430

Explanation:

Let the total number of valid votes be 'V'.

70% of V = 70/100 x V = 7V/10

Number of votes secured by the other candidate = V - 7V/100 = 3V/10

Given, 7V/10 - 3V/10 = 172 => 4V/10 = 172

=> 4V = 1720 => V = 430.

Q:

Rajan's present age is three times his daughter's and nine-thirteenth of his mother's present age. The sum of the present ages of all three of them is 125 years. What is the difference between the present ages of Rajan's daughter and Rajan's mather ?

A) 32 years B) 48 years
C) 62 years D) 50 years
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 50 years

Explanation:

Let Rajan's present age be 'x' years.
=> Then his daughter's present age is = x/3 years.
His mother's present age = 13x/9 years
Now, according to the question,
x + x/3 + 13x/9 = 125
=> x = 125x9/25 = 45
Therefore, required difference = 13x/9 - x/3 = 13x - 3x/9 = 10x/9
=> 10 x 45/9 = 50 years.
