Question : 1

31% of employees pay tax in the year 2008. Non-tax paying employees are 20,700. The total number of employees is :

a) 30,000

b) 66,775

c) 31,160

d) 64,750

Answer: (a)

Let the total number of employees be x.

x × $69/100$ = 20700

x = ${20700 × 100}/69$ = 30000

Question : 2

If 90% of A = 30% of B and B = 2x% of A, then the value of x is

a) 300

b) 150

c) 450

d) 400

Answer: (b)

${A × 90}/100 ={B × 30}/100$

3A = B

3A = $A × {2x}/100$

300 = 2x ⇒ x = 150

Question : 3

0.001 is equivalent to

a) 0.01%

b) 0.1%

c) 10%

d) 1%

Answer: (b)

0.1% = $0.1/100$ = 0.001

a) 7

b) 8

c) 5

d) 6

Answer: (c)

a × $120/100 = b × 80/100$

$b/a = 120/80 = 3/2$

${b + a}/{b - a} = {b/a + 1}/{b/a - 1} = {3/2 + 1}/{3/2 - 1} = {5/2}/{1/2} = 5$

Question : 5

30% of x is 72. The value of x is:

a) 480

b) 640

a) ${xy}/z$% of a

b) $y/z$% of a

c) ${yz}/x$% of a

d) ${zx}/y$% of a

Answer: (d)

${ax}/100 = {by}/100$

b = ${ax}/y$

z% of b = ${ax}/y × z/100$

= ${xz}/y$% of a
