=> 12144 The original fraction be (X/Y)


[X*(230/100)/[Y*(250/100)] = (1/2)
Q77. ANS C 23X/25Y = 1/2
Solution: (X/Y)= (1/2)*(25/23) = 25/46
Percentage of candidates failed is,
=> 50+40- 10 Q82. ANS A
> 80 Solution:
Percentage failed in current affairs or X+ X+1 + X +2 + X + 3 =458
aptitude or both 4x + 6 =458
=80% x = ((452-6)/4) = I13
Hence percentage passed Highest number = 113 +3 = 116
(100- 80) % = 20% 75 % of highest number
(75/100)* I16=87
Q78. ANS A
Solution: Q83. ANS D
Salary of A =45000*180/100 Solution:
=Rs. 81000 Let Rajiv's monthly salary be x,
Salary of A and B together = 81000 + 45000 According to the question,
= Rs. 126000 X*(47/100)*(73/100) = 13724
Salary of C= 126000*75/100 = Rs. 94500 X= 13724*(100/47)*(100/73) = Rs. 40000

Q79. ANS B Q84. ANS D


Solution: Solution:
Here passing marks equal, so, Let total marks be X,
=> 52 % of total marks +23 (20/100)*x+60 = (32/100)x -84
= 64 % of total marks - 34 (12/100)x = 144
=> 23 +34 = (64- 52) % of total marks x= 1200
=> 57 = 12 % of total marks Passing mark= (20/100)*1200 +60 =300
=> Total marks = 57*(100/12) = 475 Passing % = (300/1200)*100 = 25%
Mohan's mark= (84/100)*475 = 399
Q85. ANS C
Q80. ANS A Solution:
Solution: Percentage of employees who choose HRA
Here passing mark is equal. So, = 72%
(30/100)*x + 13 = (44/100)*x - 15 =>Percentage of employees who choose
(14/100)*x = 28 Old Pension Scheme = 44%
X = 28*(100/14) = 200 => Percentage of employees who selected
Maximum mark = 200 both

One person got 40 %, 60 %
Q87. ANS D According to the question,
Solution: (60-40) % of the votes= 400
The original fraction 20 % of the votes = 400
= (25/51) x (350+100)/ (150+100) = (25/51) Total votes = 400*(100/20) = 2000

115/100 X*(35/100)*(65/100)
x 120/100 x 90/100 = 54648 = 22750
Required difference X= 22750*(100/65)* (100/35)
54648- 44000= 10648 X= 100000

Q90. ANS D Q95. ANS B


Solution: Solution:
Let original fraction be x/y. Let the original fraction be x/y,
(X*130/100)/ (y*25/100) = 21/25 [X*(135/100)]/y*(80/100) = 27/80
x/y = (21/25)*(25/130) x/y = (27/80)*(80/135)
x/y = 21/130 x/y = (1/5)

Q91. ANS D Q96. ANS C


Solution: Solution:
Reduction % in consumption The salary of A to B = 80: 100 =4:5
[r/ (100 +r) x 100] % The salary of B to C = 100: 125 =4:5

Solution: From question, we have 40/ 100 * 200+
LCM of 18, 20, 16, 24 and 25 = 3600 x/100* 250
Sum of the time intervals of all the bells = 1/2* 450
after 80+2.5x=225
which they toll = 18 + 20+ 16+ 24 +25= 103 x=58
