Question :21

It costs Re. 1 to photocopy a sheet of paper. However, 2% discount is allowed on all photocopies done after first 1000 sheets. How much will it cost to copy 5000 sheets of paper ?

Answer: (d)

Total cost = Rs. [1 × 1000 + (100 – 2)% of 1 × 4000]

= Rs. (1000 + 0.98 × 4000) = Rs. (1000 + 3920) = Rs. 4920.

Question :22

12% of 550 + ?% of 320 = 82

Answer: (c)

${550 × 12}/100 + {320 × ?}/100 = 82$

66 + 3.2 × ? = 82

3.2 × ? = 82 – 66

? = $16/3.2$ = 5

Question :23

A person spends 30% of monthly salary on rent, 25% on food, 20% on children's education and 12% on electricity and the balance of Rs. 1040 on the remaining items. What is the monthly salary of the person?

Answer: (b)

Let the monthly salary of person = Rs.x.

Total spends = (30% + 25% + 20% + 12%) = 87%.

Now, $x × 13/100 = 1040$

∴$x = {1040 × 100}/13$ =8000.

Question :24

A student secures 90%, 60% and 54% marks in test papers with 100, 150 and 200 respectively as maximum marks. The percentage of his aggregate is:

Answer: (b)

Total marks secured = (90% of 100 + 60% of 150 + 54% of 200)

= $(90/100 × 100 + 60/100 × 150 + 54/100 × 200)$

= (90 + 90 + 108) = 288.

Total maximum marks = (100 + 150 + 200) = 450.

∴ Aggregate Percentage = $(288/450 × 100)%$ = 64%
