In an examination, 5% of the applicants were found ineligible and 85% of the eligible candidates belonged to the general category. If 4275 eligible candidates belonged to other categories, then how many candidates applied for the examination ?
Answer: (b)
Let the total number of applicants be x.
Number of eligible candidates = 95% of x.
Eligible candidates of other categories = 15% of (95% of x)
= $(15/100 × 95/100) × x = 57/100x$
$57/100x = 4275$
$x = ({4275 × 400}/57)$ = 30000
When the price of a radio was reduced by 20%, its sale increased by 80%. What was the net effect on the sale ?

If the numerator of a fraction is increased by 20% and the denominator is increased by 25%, the fraction obtained is $3/5$. What was the original fraction ?
Answer: (e)
$\text"x + 20% of x"/\text"y + 25% of y" = 3/5$
${120x}/100 ÷ {{125y}/100} = 3/5$
${120x}/100 × 100/{125y} = 3/5$
$x/y = 3/5 × 125/120 = 5/8$
