Answers
1. Option E
The difference between the working females in Bangalore and the working males in Chennai = 32.5 22.5 = 10 lakh
Page 19 of 28
2. Option B
Income per working person = Total income of city / Number of working people in city
Income per working person in Delhi = 200 Crore x 36/100 / (30+25) Lakh = 72 / 55 = Rs.130.9
In Chennai = 200 x 16/100 / (22.5+17.5) Lakh = Rs.80

In Mumbai = 200 x 20/100 / (35+30) Lakh = Rs.61.53
In Kolkata = 200 x 14/100 / (30+32.5) Lakh = Rs.44.8
In Bangalore = 200 x 10/100 / (25+32.5) Lakh = Rs.34.78
In Jaipur = 200 x 4/100 / (17.5+25) Lakh = Rs.18.82
The income per working person in Jaipur is the minimum.
3. Option D
Average number of working males = 1/6 (30 + 22.5 + 35 + 30 + 25 + 17.5) = 26.66 lakh
Average number of working females = 1/6 (25 + 17.5 + 30 + 32.5 + 32.5 + 25) =27.08 lakh
So, required sum = 26.66 + 27.08 = 53.75 lakh
4. Option A
Total income of Delhi = [200 36/100] = Rs.72 Crore
Income per person = 72 Crore / 55 Lakh = Rs.130.9
So, required difference of income = 5 lakh 130.9 = Rs.654.5 lakh
= Rs.6.545 Crore
5. Option C
Required % = 30/25 100 = 120%
6. Option E
Required % = 20/60 100 = 33.3% of electrification of villages in Tripura in the year 2014
7. Option D
Number of villages in Assam where electrification was done in 2013 = 40
Number of villages in Manipur where electrification was done in 2013 = 50
So, required ratio = 4 : 5
8. Option C
In Assam, the number of villages where electrification was done = 30 + 40 + 30 = 100
In Manipur = 40 + 50 + 60 = 150
In Tripura = 40 + 50 + 60 = 150
In Nagaland = 40 + 20 + 50 = 110
So, maximum electrification in both Tripura and Manipur.
9. Option B
Total number of villages in four states where electrification was done = 100 + 150 + 150 + 110 = 510
So, cost of electrification = 7500000 510 = Rs.3825000000
10. Option A
Number of villages where electrification was done in 2012 = 50 + 30 + 60 + 40 = 180
In 2012 maximum electrification work was done.

Solutions
1. Option A
Quantity of Guava at Shop A = 1200 10/100 = 120 kg

Quantity of Guava at Shop B = 1000 16/100 = 160 kg
So, required difference = 160 120 = 40 kg
2. Option B
Cost of Mango at Shop A = 30 1200 24/100 = Rs.8640
Cost of apple = 40 1200 16/100 = Rs.7680
Cost of Orange = 20 1200 20/100 = Rs.4800
So, required ratio = 8640 : 7680 : 4800
=9:8:5
3. Option C
Quantity of Mango at Shop B = 1000 24/100 = 240 kg
Quantity of Mango at Shop A = 1200 24/100 = 288 kg
So, required % = 288 100/240 = 120% of the quantity of Mango at Shop A
4. Option D
Cost of total fruits at Shop A = Cost of Mango + Cost of Apple + Cost of Guava + cost of orange + cost of other fruits
Page 22 of 28
(1200 24/100 30 + 1200 16/100 40 + 1200 10/100 18 + 1200 20/100 20 + 1200 30/100 15)
= 8640 + 7680 + 2160 + 4800 + 5400 = Rs.28680
Cost of total fruits at Shop B = (1000 24/100 30 + 1000 14/100 40 + 1000
16/100 18 + 1000 20/100 20 + 1000 26/100 15)
= 7200 + 5600 + 2880 + 4000 + 3900 = Rs.23580
So, required difference = 28680 23580 = Rs.5100
5. Option E
Quantity of Orange at Shop A = 1200 20/100 = 240 kg
Quantity of Apple at Shop B = 1000 14/100 = 140 kg
So, required % = 240 x 100 / 140 % = 171.42% more than the quantity of Apple at Shop B.
6. Option C
Total domestic investment in 2011 = 5000 + 3000 + 4000 + 2000 + 2500 + 1500 + 3500 = Rs.21500 Crore
Total foreign investment in 2011 = 2000 + 1600 + 2800 + 3000 + 2000 + 2500 + 1000 = Rs.14900 Crore
So, required difference = 21500 14900 = Rs.6600 Crore
7. Option D
Total investment in Metals = 4000 + 2800 + 3500 + 2000 + 3200 + 2200 + 1500 + 500 = Rs.19700 Crore
Total investment in Machinery = 2000 + 3000 + 2500 + 3000 + 3600 + 6000 + 1000 + 1500 = Rs.22600 Crore
So, required ratio = 19700 : 22600 = 197 : 226
8. Option A
Average domestic investment in 2014 = 6000 + 4000 + 1500 + 1000 + 4000 + 1200 + 2000 / 7
= 19700/7 = Rs.2814.28 Crore
9. Option E
Domestic investment in 2013 = 4000 + 5000 + 3200 + 3600 + 3000 + 1500 + 2400 = Rs.22700 Crore
Foreign investment in 2011 = 2000 + 1600 + 2800 + 3000 + 2000 + 2500 + 1000 = Rs.14900 Crore
= 22700 x 100 / 14900
= 152.3%
10. Option B
Average domestic investment in 2011 = Rs.21500/7 Crore
Average investment in transport = 2500 + 2000 + 1500 + 3200 + 3000 + 1600 + 4000 + 1000 / 4 = Rs.4700 Crore
So, required % = 21500 / 7 x 4700 100 = 65.34%

a. 102.5
b. 102.4
c. 105.5
d. 115.5
Page 24 of 28
e. 112.5
Answers: 1.c 2.c 3.a 4.e 5.b
Solutions
Perimeter of a square= 4*length of its one side

Ladies: 41.67% of 240= 100m (each side is 25m and area is 625m2)
Gents: 33.33% of 240= 80m (each side is 20m and area is 400m2)
Kids: 25% of 240= 60m (each side is 15m and area is 225m2)
From the above data we can arrive create the following table.
Bulb type Distribution Ladies Gents Kids Total
LED 1 per 5 m2 125 80 45 250
2
CFL 1 per 25 m 25 16 9 50
Incandescent 1 per each 4m of 25 20 15 60
perimeter
1. Ratio between the areas of ladies, kids and gents sections is 625:225:400= 25:9:16 (c)
2. Area of gents section- Area of kids section= 400-225=175m2
Furnishing charge is Rs.125/m2
Expense for furnishing extra 175m2= 175*125= 21875 (c)
3. Cost for lighting up the ladies section = 125*80+ 25*75+ 25*12= Rs.12175 (a)
4. Percentage of the LED bulbs utilised to light up the kids section= (45/250)*100= 18% (e)
5. Total number of LED, CFL, and incandescent bulbs in ladies and gents section together is 205, 41, and 45 respectively.
Therefore the total electricity consumption in a day= 205*0.2+ 41*0.4+ 45*1
= 102.4 (b)
