Q:

On 24th Nov, 2007 Thursday falls. What day of the week was it on 10th Nov, 2006 ?

A) Wednesday B) Tuesday
C) Friday D) Thursday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Wednesday

Explanation:

The year 2006 is an ordinary year. So, it has 1 odd day.
So, the day on 24th Nov, 2007 will be 1 day beyond the day on 24th Nov, 2006.
But, 24th Nov, 2007 is Thursday.
24 - 10 = 14 days.
Therefore, 2 weeks ago it is same day.
Thus, 10th Nov, 2006 is one day before 10th Nov, 2007 i.e. it is Wednesday.

Q:

An exhibition was conducted for 4 weeks. The number of tickets sold in 2nd workweek was increased by 20% and increased by 16% in the 3rd workweek but decreased by 20% in the 4th workweek. Find the number of tickets sold in the beginning, if 1392 tickets were sold in the last week ?

A) 1124 B) 1420
C) 1345 D) 1250
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 1250

Explanation:

Let initially 'X' ticket has been sold.
So now in 2nd week 20% increases, so
=> X x 120/100
In 3rd week 16% increases, so
=> X x (120/100) x (116/100)
In 4th week 20% decrease, so
=> X x (120/100) x (116/100) x (80/100) = 1392
X = 1250.
