Common explanations (1-5) :
2
Total quantity of apple juice = 5000 × = 2000 L
5

3
Total quantity of mango juice = 5000 × = 3000 L
5

% of Apple Apple
juice juice
A 10% 200
B 20% 400
C 40% 800
D 15% 300
E 15% 300

% of Mango Mango
juice juice
A 5% 150
B 15% 450
C 20% 600
D 35% 1050
E 25% 750

1. Following the common explanation, we get

200 + 400
Therefore, reqd. % = × 100 = 100%
600

Hence, option A is correct.

2. Following the common explanation, we get

Therefore, required ratio = Mango juice in tank B: Apple juice in tank C = 450 : 800 = 9 : 16

Hence, option D is correct.

3. Following the common explanation, we get

Cost price of total mixture at shop C = Rs. (800 × 20 + 600 × 30) = Rs. 34000

Therefore, required selling price = 34000 × 1.25 = Rs. 42500

Hence, option C is correct.

4. Following the common explanation, we get

Quantity of apple juice in tank M = Quantity of apple juice is 25% more than apple juice in tank C

Quantity of apple juice in tank M = (1 + 25%) × 800 = 1000

Quantity of mango juice in tank M = 40% more than mango juice in tank B

Quantity of mango juice in tank M = (1 + 40%) × 450 = 630

Therefore, required ratio = 630 : 1000 = 63 : 100

Hence, option E is correct.

5. Following the common explanation, we get

Therefore, required sum = (300 + 300 + 150 + 450) = 1200

Hence, option B is correct.

6. Ratio of fruits in terms of dozen = Orange: Litchi: Apple = 6 : 4 : 14

Ratio of per fruit in terms of weight = Orange: Litchi: Apple = 160 : 480 : 640

∴ Ratio of fruits (combined) in terms of weight (6 × 160) : (4 × 480) : (14 × 64)

⇒ 960 : 1920 : 8960

960
Percentage contribution of Orange = × 100 = 8.1%
11840

1920
Percentage contribution of Litchi = × 100 = 16.2%
11840

8960
Percentage contribution of Apple = × 100 = 75.7%
11840

Hence correct option (A) is correct.

7. Amount of milk in first jar = 0.50 × 10 = 5 L

Amount of milk in second jar = 0.60 × 16 = 9.6 L

Total amount of milk out of 40 L = (5 + 9.6) = 14.6 L

14.6
Concentration of mixture = × 100% = 36.5%
40

Now this mixture is further diluted by 25%

So required concentration = 36.5 – (36.5 × 0.25) = 27.375% ≈ 27%

Hence correct option is (B).

8. Assume capacity of tank is ‘C’ liters.

Tank is emptied in one hour, it means that both the inlet pipes and outlet pipe are active for one hour.

Pipe X can file one tank in 10 min.

Hence, water filled by pipe X in one hour = Equivalent to (60/10 = 6) tanks = 6 × C

Also, water filled by pipe Y in one hour = Equivalent to (60/5 = 12) tanks = 12 × C

So, both the pipes together have filled in water

= equivalent to (6 + 12 = 18) tanks = 18 × C

Initially tank is full.

So, total water carry out by leakage in one hour= Water filled by pipes X and Y + initially the tank was
full = 18 × C + C = 19 × C

According to question, 19 × C = 12 litres/min

12 × 60
So, C = = 37.89 litres
19

Hence correct option is (A)

9. Let V: Vegetarian officers, P(V) = 80% = 4/5

Let N: Non-vegetarian officers P(N) = 20% = 1/5

30% vegetarians conquer gold, P(G/V) = 30 % = 3/10

20% non-vegetarians conquer gold, P(G/N) = 20% = 1/5

We need to find the probability that an officer who is chosen from random that has gold is vegetarian

V
Using Baye's theorem P(
G)

4 3
×
5 10 6
= =
4 3 1 1 7
× + ×
5 10 5 5

Hence correct option is E.

10. The data is tabulated below

BundiLaddu Kajukatli
Price X 7X
Quantity N 2
Quantity 2 N

The amount actually spent is N × X + 14 × X = (N + 14) × X

The amount that Suresh would have spent if he bought 2 BundiLaddu and ‘N’ kg of kajukatli is

3
2X + 7N × X = (N + 14) × X
5

10 × X + 35 × N × X = 3 × N × X + 42 × X

32 × N × X = 32X

N=1

Hence correct option is (A)

11.
191
From I. (Yuvi + Raina + Pandya) can do the work in days.
37
This above statement alone is not sufficient.

From II: Yuvi and Raina can complete can complete the work in 51/32 days, Raina and Pandya together
can complete the work in 18/7 days, and Yuvi and Pandya together can complete the work in 6/29
days.

Here, we can find the combined efficiency of all three members - Yuvi, Raina and Pandya and we can
the subtract the combined efficiency of Raina and Pandya to get to know the time taken by Yuvi to
complete a piece of work.

Option B is hence the correct answer.

12. Let Martina’s age be 2x and her mother’s age be 15x.

Now, 15x = Martina’s father age – 4

Or, Martina’s father age = 15x + 4

Thus, we need more information to find out the ages of Martina’s mother,

Hence neither I nor II is sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, option D is correct.

13. We have A = 11000 and n = 2

To find the rate we need more information i.e. P
r
Amount (A) = P(1 +
100)
n
From II.
Amount (A) = 1.96P
r
Now, (A) = P(1 +
100)
n

1.96p r 2
= (1 +
100)
Or,
p
r 2
Or, 1.96 = (1 +
100)
r
Or, 1 + = 1.4
100
r
Or, = 0.4
100
So, r = 40%
Hence I is not sufficient and II is sufficient.
Hence, option B is correct.
14. After Replacement of 8 liters mixture by Ordinary Oil,

We have Refined Oil : Ordinary Oil = 27 : 13

Or, Refined Oil : Ordinary Oil = (27 × 2 : 13 × 2)

Or, Refined Oil : Ordinary Oil = 54 : 26

That is, 54 liters of Refined Oil and 26 liters of ordinary oil.

Now, before replacement this 54 liters of Refined Oil was present in 80 – 8 = 72 liters of mixture.

In 72 liters of mixture 54 liters is Refined Oil

So, Quantity of Refined Oil in 80 liters original mixture

54
= × 80 = 60
72

From II:

After replacement of 16 liters mixture by Refined Oil,

We have Refined Oil : Ordinary Oil = 4 : 1.

Or, Refined Oil : Ordinary Oil = (4 × 16 : 1 × 16)

Or, Refined Oil : Ordinary Oil = 64 : 16

That is 64 liters of Refined Oil and 16 liters of Ordinary Oil.

Now, before replacement this 16 liters of Ordinary Oil was present in 80 – 16 = 64 liters of mixture.

In 64 liters of mixture 16 liters is Ordinary Oil

So, Quantity of Ordinary Oil in 80 liters Original Mixture

16
= × 80 = 20 liters
64

So, Quantity of Refined oil in 80 liters original mixture 80 – 20 = 60.

Hence, option C is correct.

15. From I: The time after they meet = 125 minutes = 2 hours 5 minutes
25
= hours
12

Let the speed of Priyank be P Kmph.

Andhra Pradesh 800 840 875 925 785 4225

As we can see from the table, Bihar is the state from which the number of students going abroad over
the years among the given States/U.T.s is second lowest.

Hence, option A is correct.

17. ∵ Number of students from West Bengal from 1994 = 500

And number of students from West Bengal from 1997 = 600

Final Value – Initial Value

∴ Increase % = × 100

(Total no. of students in the given year) × 100

As we can see from the table, the number of students from Punjab in 1996 is the closest to 20% of
total students in that year.

Hence option C is correct.

21. Let the cost price of Anand is x

Anand’s profit = 10%

⇒ Selling Price of Anand = 110% of x = 1.1x

Now, as Srinath buys 10% less than Anand

⇒ Srinath’s cost price = 90% of x = 0.9x

Selling Price of Srinath is Rs. 25 more than that of Anand

⇒ Srinath’s selling price = 1.1x + 25

According to question,

Srinath’s profit = 50%

100 + P%
SP = × CP
100

1.1x + 25 = 1.5 × (0.9x)

25 = 1.35x – 1.1x

25 = 0.25x ⇒ x = 100

Hence cost price of Anand is Rs. 100

Hence, option B is correct.

22. Given average score of 600 student = 50

⇒ total score of 600 student = 50 × 600 = 30000

Total score of top 100 students = 86 × 100 = 8600

Total score of last 200 students = 30 × 200= 6000

Average score of remaining 300 students

30000 – 8600 - 6000

= = 51.33
300

Hence correct option (D) is correct.
