Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (B) 40.4%
Explanation
Park A total population = 400, female population = 150, male population = 250.
20% of park A population did not visit = 0.20 × 400 = 80.
Males who did not visit park A = 60% of 80 = 48.
Males who visited park A = 250 - 48 = 202.
Total population in park B = 500.
Required percentage = (202 / 500) × 100 = 40.4%.

If 30 females from each park are above 80 years age then find the average of no. of females who are below or equal to the age of 80 years from all the parks.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (C) 300
Explanation
Total female population across all parks = 150 + 200 + 350 + 450 + 500 = 1650.
Average female population per park = 1650 / 5 = 330.
Since 30 females in each park are above 80 years old:
Average of females ≤ 80 years = 330 - 30 = 300.

The ratio of ages of A and B 4 years ago was 5 : 3. The sum of present ages of A, B and C is 80 years. If present age of C is equal to sum of present ages of A and B. find the present age of A.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (B) 24 years
Explanation
Given C = A + B and A + B + C = 80, substituting C yields 2(A + B) = 80, so A + B = 40. Four years ago, the sum of their ages was (A - 4) + (B - 4) = 40 - 8 = 32 years. Since the ratio of their ages 4 years ago was 5 : 3, A's age 4 years ago was (5 / 8) × 32 = 20 years. Adding 4 years gives A's present age as 20 + 4 = 24 years.

The ratio of speed of boat in still water to speed of stream is 8:1 . It takes 4 hours by boat to cover 54 km in downstream & 42 km in upstream. Find the downstream speed of boat.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (D) 27 kmph
Explanation
Let the speed of the boat in still water be 8x and the speed of the stream be x. The downstream speed is 9x and the upstream speed is 7x. The total time taken is (54 / 9x) + (42 / 7x) = 4 hours. Simplifying gives (6 / x) + (6 / x) = 4, so 12 / x = 4, which yields x = 3. Therefore, the downstream speed of the boat is 9 × 3 = 27 kmph.

X liters of milk is taken out and replaced with water from a container having 240 liters milk. Now, 20% of the mixture is taken out and replaced with water. In final mixture, the difference in quantity of milk & water is 128 liters. Find X.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (B) 10
Explanation
After replacing X liters of milk with water, the quantity of milk remaining is 240 - X liters. When 20% of the mixture is removed and replaced with water, 80% of the milk remains. Thus, final milk quantity = 0.8 × (240 - X) = 192 - 0.8X liters. Final water quantity = 240 - (192 - 0.8X) = 48 + 0.8X liters. The difference between milk and water is given as 128 liters: (192 - 0.8X) - (48 + 0.8X) = 128, which simplifies to 144 - 1.6X = 128, giving 1.6X = 16, hence X = 10.

● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (C) 6
Explanation
Using the work formula where Work = Rate × Time, A's rate is 1/36 per day and B's rate is 1/48 per day. Setting up the total work equation: x/36 + (x + 2)/48 = 1/3. Multiplying the entire equation by 144 gives 4x + 3(x + 2) = 48, which simplifies to 7x + 6 = 48, so 7x = 42, giving x = 6.

A shopkeeper marked the price of an article by 40% above cost price and gave discount of Rs. 224. On the final amount, he charged 10% tax. In the whole transaction, he earned Rs. 158.6. Find cost price of the article.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (A) Rs 750
Explanation
Let C be the cost price. Marked price = 1.40C. Price after a discount of Rs. 224 = 1.40C - 224. Adding 10% tax makes the total amount collected 1.10 × (1.40C - 224) = 1.54C - 246.4. The total profit earned over cost price is 158.6, so (1.54C - 246.4) - C = 158.6. This gives 0.54C = 405, yielding C = 750.

Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (D) Rs 440
Explanation
Using the simple interest formula SI = (P × R × T) / 100:
For A:
P = ₹5000, R = 10%, T = 2 years
SI = (5000 × 10 × 2) / 100 = ₹1000
For B:
P = ₹4000, R = 12%, T = 3 years
SI = (4000 × 12 × 3) / 100 = ₹1440
Difference in interest = 1440 - 1000 = ₹440.

A boat covers a distance of 50 kms in 2 hours in downstream. If speed of stream is 5 kmph, then find time taken by boat to cover 45 km in upstream and 50 km in downstream.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (A) 5 hours
Explanation
Downstream speed = 50 / 2 = 25 km/h.
Speed of stream = 5 km/h.
Speed of boat in still water = 25 - 5 = 20 km/h.
Upstream speed = 20 - 5 = 15 km/h.
Time taken for 45 km upstream = 45 / 15 = 3 hours.
Time taken for 50 km downstream = 50 / 25 = 2 hours.
Total time = 3 + 2 = 5 hours.

In a firm, 60% of total employees are males and 40% of total female employees earn more than Rs. 35000. If 60% of total employees earn more than Rs. 35000, then what percent of male employees earn more than Rs 35000?
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (E) 73.33%
Explanation
Let the total number of employees be 100.
Male employees = 60
Female employees = 40
Total employees earning > ₹35000 = 60% of 100 = 60.
Female employees earning > ₹35000 = 40% of 40 = 16.
Male employees earning > ₹35000 = 60 - 16 = 44.
Percentage of male employees earning > ₹35000 = (44 / 60) × 100 = 73.33%.

A and B are inlet pipes which take 5 hours and 9 hours respectively alone to fill the tank. C is outlet pipe which alone can empty the tank in 15 hours. If all three pipes are opened simultaneously, then in what time the tank will be filled completely?
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (B) ⁴⁄₁₁ ¹⁄₁₁ hours
Explanation
Rate of pipe A = 1/5 per hour
Rate of pipe B = 1/9 per hour
Rate of pipe C = -1/15 per hour
Net filling rate per hour = 1/5 + 1/9 - 1/15
LCM of 5, 9, 15 is 45.
Net rate = (9 + 5 - 3) / 45 = 11/45 per hour.
Time required to fill the tank = 45/11 hours = 4 1/11 hours.

Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (A) 181 : 134
Explanation
In vessel A, milk fraction = 3/5, water fraction = 2/5.
In vessel B, milk fraction = 5/9, water fraction = 4/9.
For a 3 : 4 mixture ratio:
Total milk = 3 × (3/5) + 4 × (5/9) = 9/5 + 20/9 = 181/45.
Total water = 3 × (2/5) + 4 × (4/9) = 6/5 + 16/9 = 134/45.
Ratio of milk to water in final mixture = (181/45) : (134/45) = 181 : 134.

A work can be completed by A alone and B alone in 10 days and 12 days respectively. With the help of C, they complete the work in 5 days. In how many days can C alone complete the work?
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (C) 60 days
Explanation
Work rate formula: Rate of C = Rate of (A + B + C) - Rate of A - Rate of B.
Substituting the given time values into the work rate equation:
1/C = 1/5 - (1/10 + 1/12)
1/C = 1/5 - (6/60 + 5/60)
1/C = 1/5 - 11/60
1/C = 12/60 - 11/60 = 1/60
Taking the reciprocal yields C = 60 days.

The probability of obtaining no yellow ball when drawing 3 balls is the number of ways to select 3 non-yellow balls divided by total ways to select 3 balls from 15.
Manoj invested for 2 more months than Saroj and Saroj invested Rs 8000 for 9 months. Find amount invested by Manoj, if profit sharing ratio of Manoj to Saroj is 11 : 8.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (E) Rs 9000
Explanation
Profit sharing ratio equals the ratio of the products of investment amount and investment time period.
Saroj's investment product = 8000 × 9 = 72000.
Manoj invested for 2 more months than Saroj, so Manoj's investment period = 9 + 2 = 11 months.
Let Manoj's investment amount be M.
(M × 11) / 72000 = 11 / 8
11M / 72000 = 11 / 8
M / 72000 = 1 / 8
M = 72000 / 8 = 9000.
