Question :1

14% of 250 × ? % of 150 = 840

Answer: (d)

14% of 250 × ? % of 150 = 840

$250 × 14/100 × {150 × ?}/100 = 840$

35 × 1.5 × ? = 840

? = $840/{35 × 15}$

? = 16

In a college election between two candidates, one candidate got 55% of the total valid votes. 15% of the votes were invalid. If the total votes were 15,200, what is the number of valid votes the other candidate got ?

Answer: (d)

Total valid votes = 85% of 15200 = 12920

Question :3

An HR Company employs 4800 people, out of which 45 percent are males and 60 percent of the males are either 25 years or older. How many males are employed in that HR Company who are younger than 25 years ?

Answer: (d)

Question :4

In a hostel the rent per room is increased by 20%. If number of rooms in the hostel is also increased by 20% and the hostel is always full, then what is the percentage change in the total collection at the cash counter ?

Answer: (c)

Let initial rent be Rs. 100 and initial rooms be 100

So initial collection = 100 × 100 = Rs.10000

Now new rent = 100 × 20% = 120

New no of rooms = 100 × 20% = 120

So new collection = 120 × 120 = 14400

% change in collection

= $(14400 - 10000)/10000 × 100$

= $4400/10000 × 100 = 44%$

Question :5

Twenty five percent of Pranab’s annual salary is equal to eighty percent of Surya’s annual salary. Surya’s monthly salary is forty percent of Dheeru’s monthly salary. If Dheeru’s annual salary is Rs. 6 lacs, what is Pranab’s monthly salary ? (At some places annual income and in some place monthly income is given.)

Answer: (d)

Dhreeu's monthly salary = $600000/12$ = Rs. 50000

Surya's monthly salary = $50000 × 40/100$ = Rs. 20000

Pranab's monthly salary = $20000 × 80/25$ = Rs. 64000
