a) 140

b) 84

c) 56

d) 28

Answer: (d)

Let the required number be x.

As given,

$x × 5/4$ - $x × 5/14$ = 25

$5x(1/4 – 1/14)$ = 25

$5x({7 – 2}/28)$ = 25⇒ $5x × 5/28$ = 25

x = ${25×28}/{5×5}$ = 28

Question : 3

0.1 and $5/8$ of a bamboo are in mud and water respectively and the rest of length 2.75 m is above water. What is the length of the bamboo?

a) 20 m

b) 27.5 m

Answer: (d)

Let the length of bamboo be x metres.

Length of bamboo above water

= x - $x/10 – {5x}/8$

= ${40x – 4x – 25x}/40 = {11x}/40$

According to the question, ${11x}/40$ = 2.75

x =${2.75×40}/11$=10 metres.

$3/7$ of the value = 21000 × $3/7$ = 3000 × 3 = Rs.9000

Question : 6

a) $7/39$

b) $2/39$

c) $4/39$

d) $5/39$

Answer: (d)

$1/15 + 1/35 + 1/63 + 1/99 + 1/143$

= $1/{3×5}+1/{5×7}+1/{7×9}+1/{9×11}+1/{11×13} $

=$1/2(1/3 - 1/5+1/5 - 1/7+1/7 - 1/9+1/9 - 1/11+1/11 - 1/13)$
