- A and B can do a work in 12 days. B and C can do the same work in 20 days. A and C can also do the same work in 30 days. If they all work together in how many days will they complete the work ?
12 days8 days14 days18 days17 daysOption A
LCM of 12, 20 and 30 = 120
efficiency of A and B = 120/12 = 10
efficiency of B and C = 120/20 = 6
efficiency of A and C = 120/30 = 4
2(A + B + C) = 20
A + B + C = 10
time = 120/10 = 12 days - Sujit, Rajat and Sanjay started a partnership business rs.8400 , rs.5000 and rs.6000 respectively. If they invested their capital for 5 months, 6 months and 8 months respectively and total profit of the business is rs. 2000, then how much profit Sanjay got at the end of the year ?
400580420800750Option D
Profit sharing ratio of Sujit, Rajat and Sanjay = (8400 * 5) : (5000 * 6) : (6000 * 8) = 7 : 5 : 8
profit of Sanjay = 2000/20 * 8 = 800 - Total income of A, B and C is rs.9400. If A’s income is 4/5th of B’s income and B’s income is 3/4th of C’s income, then find the income of A.
18002200280024003500Option D
A/B = 4/5
B/C = 3/4
by balancing, A/B = 4 *3/5 *3 = 12/15
B/C = 3 *5/4*5 = 15/20
ratio of A, B and C = 12 : 15 : 20
A’s income = 9400 * 12/47 = 2400 - Pipes And B together can fill a tank in 20 hours while pipe A alone can fill the same tank in 30 hours. Find how much time taken by B to fill the same tank ?
40 hours30 hours60 hours45 hours50 hoursOption C
LCM of 20 and 30 = 60
let capacity of tank = 60
efficiency of pipe A and B together = 60/20 = 3
efficiency of pipe A = 60/30 = 2
efficiency of pipe B = 3 – 2 = 1
time taken by B to fill the tank = 60/1 = 60 hours - Boat A covers 180 km in downstream in 9 hours. If the speed of boat in still water is 12 km/hr, then find time taken by boat A to cover 96 km in upstream ?
12 hours13 hours22 hours24 hours15 hoursOption D
Downstream speed = 180/9 = 20 km/hr
speed of boat = 12 km/hr
speed of stream = 20 – 12 = 8 km/hr
upstream speed = 12 – 8 = 4 km/hr

- A vessel has only two types of oil A and B in the ratio of 9 : 7 respectively. When 25 liters of oil is added to the vessel then quantity of oil A becomes 75% of that of oil B. What is the capacity of vessel if it becomes full after addition of 25 liters oil ?
120 lt105 lt100 lt130 lt80 ltOption B
Let quantity of oil in vessel A and B = 9x and 7x
9x = (7x + 25) 75/100
36x = 21x + 75
15x = 75
x = 5
capacity of vessel = 9x + 7x + 25 = 105 liters - The ratio of present age of A and B is 6 : 5 and the present age of C is 5 years less than B. After 6 years the age of A is two times the present age of C. If the present age D is 8 years more than B, then find the present age of D ?
26 years30 years28 years23 years32 yearsOption C
Let the present age of A and B = 6x and 5x respectively.
present age of C = 5x – 5
ATQ, 6x + 6 = (5x – 5) * 2
6x + 6 = 10x – 10
x = 4
present age of D = 5x + 8 = 28 years - P and Q together can complete a work in 24 days and Q and R together can complete the same work in 30 days. P and R together work for 15 days and after 15 days P and R left the work remaining work done by done B. If the efficiency ratio of P and Q is 2 : 3, then find in how many days total work will be completed ?
28 days60 days40 days38 days25 daysOption C
LCM of 24 and 30 = 120
total work = 120
efficiency of P and Q = 120/24 = 5
efficiency of Q and R = 120/30 = 4
efficiency of P = 5 * 2/5 = 2
efficiency of Q = 5 – 2 = 3
efficiency of R = 4 – 3 = 1
P and R together work for 15 days = ( 2 + 3) * 15 = 45 work
remaining work = 120 – 45 = 75
days required by B to complete remaining work = 75/3 = 25 days
total days = 15 + 25 = 40 days - A and B entered into a partnership business by investing rs.12000 and rs.14000 respectively. After x months C joined then by investing rs. 8000 and B left the business. If profit earned by C at the end of year is rs. 800 out of total profit rs.7200, then find for how many months did C invest his money ?
8 months4 months2 months7 months6 monthsOption B
Profit sharing ratio = (12000 * 12) : (14000 * x) : (8000 * 12 – x)
= 144 : 14x : 96 – 8x
96 – 8x/144 + 14x = 1/8
144 + 14x = 768 – 64x
78x = 624
x = 8
C invest his money for 12 – 8 = 4 months - Rohit calculates his profit percentage on SP while Sumeet calculate his profit percentage on CP. They find that the difference between their profit is rs.280. If SP of both are same and both get 20% profit, then find CP of Rohit ?
1240014000150001080012000Option D
Let SP of both Rohit and Sumeet = rs.100x
profit of Rohit = 100x * 20/100 = 20x
CP of Rohit = 80x
CP of Sumeet = 100x/120 * 100 = 500x/6
Rohit of Sumeet = 100x – 500/6 = 50x/3
20x – 50x/3 = 450
x = 135
CP of Rohit = 135 * 80 = 10800 - Directions : What will come in place of questions (?) marks in the following questions given below ? (you are not calculate exact value)
49.96% of 1740 + 28% of 1200 – √1764.05 + 120 = ?13401250133612841265Option D

- 8 men and 6 women together can complete a piece of work in 20 days. If the efficiency of a man is 50% more than efficiency of a woman, then find in how many days 12 men and 14 women can complete the same piece of work ?
14 days12.5 days90/7 days90/8 days18 daysOption D
Efficiency ratio of a man and a woman = 3 : 2
total work =( 8 * 3 + 6 * 2) * 20 = 720 work
days required to complete work by 12 men and 14 women = 720/(12 * 3 + 14 * 2) = 90/8 days - A bag contains 72 balls out of which green balls are 28 and orange balls are x and remaining balls are pink. If two balls are randomly picked up from the bag then the probability of getting green ball and a orange ball is 56/213. Find the number of pink balls in that bag ?
1422182520Option E
No. of green balls = 28
no.of orange balls = x
no.of pink balls = 72 – (28 + x) = 44 – x
probability = (28C1) * (xC1)/72C2 = 56/213
28 * x * 2/72 * 71 = 56/213
x = 24
no. of pink balls = 44 – 24 = 20 - Ranju goes from home to office at speed of (x + 25) km/h and returns with a speed of (x + 10) km/h. If average speed of Ranju for the whole journey is 36 km/h, then find time taken by him to cover a distance of 140 km if his speed is (x + 8) km/h ?
4 hours5 hours8 hours2 hours6 hoursOption B
2 (x + 25) (x + 10)/x + 25 + x + 10 = 36
x^2 + 10x + 25x + 250 = 36x + 630
x^2 – x – 380 = 0
x = 20, -19

35003200430044002800Option E
Let investment amount at A and B is 7x and 6x respectively.
profit sharing ratio of A and B = (7x * 5 : 6x * 6) = 35x : 36x
71x = 2840
x = 40
amount invested by A = 40 * 7 = 2800 - A person purchased rice at rs. 8 rs. 12 and rs.20 per kg in three consecutive years. If he spent rs.2400 each year on rice, then find the approximate average cost per kg paid by him in the given three consecutive years.
121111 19/3112 19/3514Option C
Quantity of rice purchased by him in 1st year = 2400/8 = 300kg
2nd year = 2400/12 = 200 kg
3rd year = 2400/20 = 120 kg
total quantity purchased = 300 + 200 + 120 = 620
total amount paid = 2400 * 3 = 7200

- The discount allowed on an article is rs.960 more than the profit earned on the article. If the selling price of the article is rs.1920 and shopkeeper marked the article 100% above its cost price, then find profit% earned on the article.
10%20%12%18%40%Option B
Let cost price of the article = rs.100x
MP = 100x *2/1 = 200x
ATQ, (200x – 1920 ) – (1920 – 100x) = 960

1050840450400800Option D
Rate of CI for 2 years = 20 + 20 + 20 *20/100 = 44%
CI received = P * 44/100 = 44P/100
SI received by man = ( P + 350) 40/100 = 40P + 14000/100

3423284221Option E
Probability = 3/7
x + 1/x + 1 + x + 4 = 3/7
x + 1/2x + 5 = 3/7

100/9 days15 days18 days200/3 days30 daysOption A
Fraction value 7 1/7% = 1/14
efficiency of B = 14
efficiency of A = 15
total work = 15 * 20 = 300
efficiency of C = 15 * 4/5 = 12

Let quantity of milk = 11x
and water = 4x
(11x – 30 * 11/15 + 18)/4x – 30 * 4/15 = 5/1
11x – 4/4x – 8 = 5/1
