a) 54,000
b) 53,900
c) 54,080
d) 54,900
Answer »Answer: (c)

Question : 2
An epidemic broke out in a village in which 5% of the population died. Of the remaining, 20% fled out of panic. If the present population is 4655, then the population of the village originally was
a) 6125
b) 6000
c) 5955

Answer »Answer: (a)
Using Rule 28,
Population after ‘n' years = $P(1 ± R_1/100)(1 ± R_2/100)…(1 ± R_n/100)$
Original population of village = x (let)
According to the question,
$x × 95/100 × 80/100 = 4655$
$x = {4655 × 100 × 100}/{95 × 80}$ = 6125
Question : 3

= $500000 × (1 + 1/25)^3$
= $500000 × 26/25 × 26/25 × 26/25$ = 562432

a) 227800
b) 207800
c) 217800
d) 237800
Answer »Answer: (c)
Using Rule 17,
If the population/cost of a certain town/ article, is P and annual increament rate is r%, then
- After ‘t' years population/cost = $P(1 + r/100)^t$
- Before ‘t' years population/cost = $P/{(1 + r/100)^t}$
Required population after two years = $180000(1 + 10/100)^2$
= $180000 × 11/10 × 11/10 = 217800$
Question : 5

a) 60 %
b) 72.2 %
c) 72.8 %
d) 62.8 %
Answer »Answer: (c)
Using Rule 7,
If a number is first increased by a% and then again increased by b%, then total increase percent is $(a + b + {ab}/100)%$
Single equivalent increase for 20% and 20%
= $(20 + 20 + {20 × 20}/100)%$ = 44%
Single equivalent increase for 44% and 20%
= $(44 + 20 + {44 × 20}/100)%$
= (64 + 8.8)% = 72.8%
