Questions and Answers

Q 1 - (35614 - 26889) / 25 = ?

A - 317

B - 349

C - 356

D - 363

Answer : B

Explanation

35614 - 26889 = 8725  ∴ Given exp. 8725 / 25 = 8725/ 25 = 349.

Q 2 - 20 + 8 * 0.5 / 20 - ? = 12

A - 2

B - 8

C - 18

D - None of these

Answer : C

Explanation

(let  20 +8*1/2 )/ (20-x) = 12 then  (20+4)/(20-x)= 12
∴ 240- 12x= 24 ⇒ 12x =(240-24) = 216 ⇒ x =18

Q 3 - 998996/999 * 999 = ?

A - 990809

B - 998996

C - 998999

D - 999824

Answer : B

Explanation

given exp= (1000-4/ 999)*999 = (999000-4 )= 998996

Q 4 - 3/4 /9/4 of 2/3 - (1/2-1/3)/ (1/2 +1/3) * 10/3 +5/6 =?

A - 7/18

B - 49/54

C - 2/3

D - 1/6

Answer : C

Explanation

Give Exp. = 3/4/ 9/4 of 2/3 - ( 1/6 ) / (5/6)  * 10/3 + 5/6
= 3/4 / 3/2 - 1/5 * 10/3 + 5/6 = 3/4  *  2/3 - 2/3 + 5/3
= 1/2 - 2/3 + 5/6
= (3-4 + 5 ) / 6
= 4/6 = 2/3

Q 5 - { 1+1/1+ 1/(1+1/3) } / 11/7 = ?

A - 1

B - 4/3

C - 5/4

D - 8/7

Answer : A

Explanation

given exp.   = { 1+  1/ (1+1/(4/3)} /11/7
= { 1+  1/( 1+3/4)} /11/7
= [ 1+ 1/(7/4)]/11/7
= (1+4/7) /11/7
= 11/7 /11/7
= 1

Q 6 - 1- [ 1- {1- (1-1- 1)}] = ?

A - 0

B - 1

C - 2

D - 3

Answer : A

Explanation

given exp.  = 1- [1-{1-(1-0)}] = 1- [1-(1-1)] =  1- [1-0] = 1-1= 0.

Q 7 - if a+ 1/b = 1 and b+ 1/c = 1 , then c+ 1/a = ?

A - 0

B - 1/2

C - 1

D - 2

Answer : C

Explanation

a+ 1/b = 1 ⇒ a= (1-1/b) =  (b-1)/b ⇒ 1/a = b/(b-1)
= b+ 1/c = 1 ⇒ 1/c = (1-b)  ⇒ c = 1/ (1-b)
∴  c+1/a = 1/(1-b)+ b/(b-1) =  1/(1-b) - b/(1-b)=    (1-b)/ (1-b) =1

Q 8 - if x= (1-a), y=(2a+1) and x = y , then a = ?

A - 2

B - 1/2

C - 0

D - -1

Answer : C

Explanation

x= y ⇒(1-a) = (2a+1) ⇒ 3a = 0 ⇒ a = 0.

Q 9 - ((469+174)2 -(469-174)2)/(469*174)= ?

A - 2

B - 4

C - 295

D - 643

Answer : B

Explanation

given exp. = (a+b)2 +(a-b)2 /ab =  4ab/ab = 4

Q 10 - If the average score of boys and girls is 71 and 73 but combined average of boys and girls is 71.8. How much percentage of girls is present in the class?

A - 40%

B - 50%

C - 60%

D - 70%

Answer : A

Explanation

If the number of girls  is x than the  number of boys in the class (100 -x).
Then   73 x+ 71( 100- x) = 71.8 * 100
⇒ 73x -  71 x = 7180 - 7100 = 2x = 80 ⇒ x = 40
Hence, it  proves  that 40%  girls present in the class.
