Last week's answers
1.The answer is c. 46 years
Let mother’s age be 7x years then
daughter’s age = x years. (7x – 4 ) /(x-4) = 19/1
7x-4 = 19(x-4)
19x-7x = 76 – 4
12x = 72
X=6
Mother’s age after 4 years = (7x+4) = (7×6+4)
= 46 years
2. The answer is d.17.6085
(0.56% of 225) × ( 3.25% of 430)
= (56/100 × 1/100 × 225) × ( 325/100 ×
1/100 × 430)
= ( 126/100 × 13975/1000) = 1.26 ×
13.975 =17.6085
3. The answer is d. ₹ 60
( C.P of 17 balls) – ( S.P of 17 balls)
= (C.P of 5 balls)
C.P of 12 balls = S.P of 17 balls = ₹
720
C.P of 1 ball = ₹ (720/12) = ₹ 60
4. The answer is a. 7 : 15
7:15 = 7/15 = 0.466
15:23 =
15/23 = 0.652
17:25 = 17/25 = 0.68
21:39 = 21/39 = 0.538
Clearly, 7:15 is the lowest
5. The answer is a. 4:3:2
Let their investments be ₹ 3x for p
months; ₹ 4x for q months and ₹ 6x for r months respectively.
Then, 3xp:4xq:6xr = 1:1:1
3p:4q:6r =1:1:1
So, 3p=4q, q = 3p / 4. And 4q = 6r, r =
2q /3 = (2/3 × 3p/4) = p/2
