Question : 1

The average monthly income of X and Y is Rs.5050. The average monthly income of Y and Z is Rs.6250 and the average monthly income of X and Z is Rs.5200. The monthly income of X is :

a) Rs.5000

b) Rs.4000

c) Rs.3500

d) Rs.4050

Answer: (b)

X + Y =Rs.(2 × 5050) =Rs.10100

Y + Z =Rs.(2 × 6250) =Rs.12500

z + x =Rs.(2 × 5200) =Rs.10400

Adding all three,

2 (X + Y + Z) =Rs.(10100 + 12500 + 10400)

=Rs.33000

⇒ X + Y + Z = Rs.16500

∴ X = (X + Y + Z) – (Y + Z)

=Rs.(16500 – 12500) =Rs.4000

Question : 2

The average salary of all the workers in a workshop is Rs.8,000. The average salary of 7 technicians is Rs.12,000 and the average salary of the rest is Rs.6,000. The total number of workers in the workshop is

Total workers = x (let)

∴ 7 × 12000 + (x – 7) × 6000 = 8000 x

⇒ 84000 + 6000 x – 42000 = 8000 x

⇒ 8000 x – 6000 x = 42000

⇒ 2000 x = 42000

⇒ x = $42000/2000$ = 21

Question : 3

The average monthly salary of 19 members of a group is Rs. 16000. If one more member whose monthly salary is Rs. 20000 joins the group, then the average salary of the group is

a) Rs. 16250

b) Rs. 18000

c) Rs. 16200

d) Rs. 18250

Answer: (c)

Required average

=Rs. $({16000 ×19+20000}/20)$

=Rs.$({304000+20000}/20)$

=Rs. $(324000/20)$

=Rs.16200

OR

Difference = Rs. (20000 – 16000) = Rs. 4000

∴ Increase in average = $4000/20$ = Rs. 200

∴ Required average

= Rs. (16000 + 200)

= Rs. 16200

Question : 4

a) Rs. 1800

b) Rs. 2150

c) Rs. 2000

d) Rs. 2400

Answer: (c)

Let the average monthly income of man be Rs. x.

∴ Man’s annual income = Rs. 12x

∴ Man’s annual expenses

=Rs.$({6x×12}/8)$

=Rs.9x

∴ Savings = 12x – 9x = Rs. 3x

∴ 3x = 6000

⇒ x = $6000/3$ = Rs. 2000

Question : 5

a) Rs.5,000

b) Rs.4,050

c) Rs.4,000

d) Rs.3,500

Answer: (c)

Total monthly income of P and Q = 2 × 5050 =Rs.10100

Total monthly income of Q and R = 2 × 6250 =Rs.12500

Total monthly income of P and R = 2 × 5200 =Rs.10400

On adding all three,

Total monthly income of 2(P + Q + R)

=Rs.(10100 + 12500 + 10400)

=Rs.33000

∴ Total monthly income of (P + Q + R) = $33000/2$

=Rs.16500

∴ P’s monthly income
