43. Find the average of all the numbers between 6 and 34 which is divisible by 5?

(A) 15 (B) 21 (C) 20 (D) 26

[Hint: (10+15+20+25+30)/5=20]

(A) 82 (B) 84 (C) 86 (D) 88

[Hint: (48+66+74+62+82+x)/6=70; (332 +x)/6=70; 332+x=70X6; 332+X=420; X=420-332=88]

45. In a school examination, 35% of students were passed and 455 students failed. How many students appeared for the examination?

(A) 605 (B) 565 (C) 700 (D) 765

Hint: Let the total number of students who appeared in the examination be ‘x’.
Then, the percentage of students passed=35%, therefore, the number of students passed=35%of x
=35/100×x
=7/20×x
=7x/20
number of students failed =455
Thus, the total number of students appeared=passed +failed
x =7x/20+455
x=7x+(455×20)/20
20x=7x+9100
20x-7x=9100
13x=9100
x=9100/13
therefore x =700.

46. A person bought a fan for Rs. 420/- and sold it at a loss of 15%. Find the selling price of the fan.

(A) 320 (B) 352 (C) 346 (D) 357

[Hint: SP= CP-Loss; Loss%= LossX100/CP or Direct formula is SP=CP(100-Loss%)/100;

SP=420(100-15)/100=420(85)/100=35700/100=357]
47. A car proceeds journey at 70 Km per hour. It increases the speed at the rate of 10 Km in every 2 hours. How many hours does it take to cover a distance of 345 km?

(A) 2 hours 15 minutes (B) 4 Hours 5 minutes (C) 4 Hours 30 minutes (D) 5 Hours 20 minutes

[Hint: Distance covered in the first 2 hours = (70 x 2) km = 140 km
Distance covered in the next 2 hours = (80 x 2) km = 160 km
Remaining distance = 345 – (140 + 160) = 45 km Now, speed in the fifth hour = 90 km/hr
$∴$ The time that is taken to cover 45 km = $(45/90) h r =1/2 h r { Time=Distance/speed}$
$∴$ Total time that is taken = $(2 + 2 +1/2) h r = 4 1/2 h r s]$

48. Sonu purchased a cycle for Rs.3750/-. He spent Rs.250/- for its Repair. Then he sold it for Rs.4400/-. Find out the percentage Profit/loss?

(A) 10% Loss (B) 16.25% profit (C) 10% Profit (D) 12% loss

[Given: Cost of cycle $= 375 0;$ Cost of repairing $= 25 0;$ Total cost $= 3750 + 250 = 400 0;$

Selling price

= 440 0;

Profit or Loss = Selling price – Cost price

= 4400 - 4000 = 400

(Positive)

Hence, Sonu makes a profit-

R s . 400

. So, profit percent will be

4000/400 \times 100 = 10

49. A and B can complete a piece of work in 18 days. B and C can complete the work in 24 days. A and C can complete the same work in 36 days. If A, B, and C work together, in how many days the work will be completed?

(A) 10 (B) 8 (C) 18 (D) 16

[ Hint: (A + B)’s 1 day’s work $= \frac{1}{18}$ ; (B + C)’s 1 day’s work $= \frac{1}{24}$ ; (C + A)’s 1 day’s work $= \frac{1}{36}$
On adding, 2(A + B + C)’s 1 day’s work $= \frac{1}{18}+\frac{1}{24}+\frac{1}{36} = \frac{4+3+2}{72} = \frac{1}{8}$
∴ (A + B + C)’s 1 day’s work $= \frac{1}{16}$ ∴ A, B, and C together will complete the work in 16 days.]
50. Find out the value: 5/9 + 2/7 =

(A) 7/16 (B) 10/63 (C) 53/63 (D) 47/63
