Question : 61 [IBPS-RRB-PO-Prelims-2020]
Sandeep sold an article at a profit of 13$1/3$% at its selling price to Vinod. Vinod further sold it at 7.5% loss for Rs. 1110. Find the difference in the original cost price of that article and selling price of article for Vinod?
a) Rs. 92
b) Rs. 84
c) Rs. 60
d) Rs. 50
e) Rs. 70
Answer »Answer: (e)
Prot% = 13$1/3$% = $2/15$
Let the selling price of that article be Rs. 15X
Profit = Rs. 2X
Cost price = Rs. 13X
Using the data provided in the question, we get
15X × 92.5% = 1110
X = 80
Cost price = 13X = Rs. 1040
Required difference = 1110 - 1040
= Rs. 70
Question : 62 [IBPS-RRB-PO-Prelims-2020]
In a 140 litres of a mixture of milk and water, the ratio of milk to water is 5 : 2. If 28 litres mixture is taken out and same amount of water is added to the mixture. If this process is repeated for two times, then what will be quantity of milk in nal mixture?

Answer »Answer: (c)
Initial quantity of milk = $5/1$ × 140 = 100 litres
And that of water = 140 – 100 = 40 litres
Final quantity of mixture = 100 × $(1 - 20/100)^3$ = 51.2 litres

On solving the equation, we get
P = Rs. 12000
Question : 64 [IBPS-RRB-PO-Prelims-2020]
Two classes A and B have 320 and 240 students respectively. If the percentage of students, who didn’t pass in classes A and B are 40% and 30% respectively, what is the total number of failed students?

b) 360
c) 320

e) 200
Answer »Answer: (e)
Number of students who failed in class A
= 30 × 0.4 = 128
Number of students who failed in class B
= 240 × 0.3 = 72
Total numbers of failed students
= 128 + 72 = 200
Hence, the answer is E.
Question : 65 [IBPS-RRB-PO-Prelims-2020]
A and B together take 6 days to complete a work. If it is given that A takes 9 days less than B to complete the work alone, then in how many days B alone will complete the work?
a) 18
b) 15
c) 12
d) 9
e) 8
Answer »Answer: (a)
Let the minimum of days taken by B alone to complete the work be x days.
Number of days taken day A alone to complete the work
= x – 9 days
$1/x + 1/\text"x - 9" = 1/6$
$\text"x(x - 9)"/\text"2x - 9" = 6$
x2 - 9x = 12x - 54
x2 - 21x + 54 = 0
x2 - 18x -3x + 54 = 0
x(x - 18) -3(x - 18) = 0
(x - 3)(x - 18) = 0
x = 3 , 18
X cannot be 3 as the number of days can’t be negative for any person
x = 18 days
Number of days taken by B alone = x = 18 days
Hence, the answer is A.
