Solution:
Directions (1 - 5):
Pizzas sold in C = 108
Veg pizzas in C = 108/12 * 7 = 63
Non- veg pizzas in C = 108/ 12 * 5 = 45
Pizzas sold in A and B = 376 – 108 = 268
Veg : Non-veg pizzas sold by A = 9: 7 (9y, 7y)
Veg : Non-veg pizzas sold by B = 3: 4 (3x, 4x)
Veg pizzas sold by A = 120% Veg pizzas sold by B
=> 6: 5 (6z, 5z)
=> 9y/6z * 5z = 7.5 y
=> 7.5y/3 * 4 = 10y
Veg A: non-veg A: Veg B: non-veg B
9: 7: 7.5: 10
=> 18: 14: 15: 20
=> 268 = 67y
=> y = 4
Veg pizzas in A = 18 * 4 = 72
Non- veg pizzas in A = 14 * 4 = 56
Veg pizzas in B = 15 * 4 =60
Non- veg pizzas in B = 20 * 4 = 80
1) Answer: A
Required ratio = 72: 63 = 8: 7
2) Answer: E
Required sum = 56 + 80 + 45 = 181
3) Answer: C
Required % = 60/80 *100 = 75%
4) Answer: D
Required average = (72 + 60) /2 = 66
5) Answer: B
Required ratio = (60 + 80): 63 = 20: 9
6.) Answer: C
Explanation:
S.I = P*n*r /100
(14/25) * P = P * 7 * r/100
Rate of interest(r) = (14/25) * (100/7)
r = 8 %
7) Answer: B
Explanation:
The ratio of age of Karthika, 7 years ago and the present
age of Sanu
= 3 : 4 (3x, 4x)
Present age of Karthika and Sanu = 3x + 7, 4x
According to the question,
(3x + 7 + 8)/(4x + 8) = (15/14)
42x + 210 = 60x + 120
90 = 18x
x = 90/18 = 5
Present age of Sanu = 4x = 20 years
8. Answer: C
Explanation:
The perimeter of the square = 72 m
4a = 72
Side (a) = 18 m
Radius of the circle = (7/9)*18 = 14 m
Area of the circle = πr2 = (22/7)*14*14 = 616 Sq m
9) Answer: D
Explanation:
Let the numbers be x, y and z,
The average of first two numbers = 6
(x + y) = 12
The average of last two numbers = 7
(y + z) = 14
The average of first and last numbers = 8
(x + z) = 16
2*(x + y + z) = 12 + 14 + 16 = 42
x + y + z = 21
Required average = (21/3) = 7
10) Answer: A
Explanation:
The same train crosses a platform and pole. So, Speed is equal.
Speed = Distance/Time
(T.L + 200)/15 = T.L/5
T.L + 200 = 3*T.L
2*T.L = 200
T.L = 100 m
The time taken by the train to cross a tunnel
Time = Distance/Speed
Required time = (100 + 300)/(100/5) = (400*5)/100 = 20 sec
