Solutions

S1. Ans.(d)
Sol. 
Total Income = 100
Expenditure of food% = (20/100) × 100
= 20%

S2. Ans.(b)
Sol. 
Expenditure of Cloth = 15
Expenditure of Savings = 12.5
= 15 – 12.5
= 2.5%

S3. Ans.(c)
Sol. 
Total Income = 100000
Saving = 100000 × (12.5/100)
= 12500

S4. Ans.(c)
Sol. 
Expenditure of transport = 20
Expenditure of food = 20

S5. Ans.(a)
Sol. 
Saving = 12.5%
Expenditure of Housing = (10/100)×100
= 10%

S6. Ans.(b)
Sol.
Let the capacity of the tank be 30 litres.
So Pipe A can fill 3 litre/hour, Pipe B can fill 2 litre/hour and Pipe C can empty 1 litre/hour.
Together they can fill = 3 + 2 – 1 = 4 litre/hour
Tank filled in 6 hours = 24 litres
Time to fill the remaining tank by pipe A alone = 6/3 = 2 hours

S7. Ans.(b)
Sol.
2 M x 6 = 2 W x 9 = 3 C x 8
2 M = 3 W = 4 C
The ratio of efficiency of man, woman and children = 1/2: 1/3: 1/4 = 6: 4: 3
Let the work done by a man, a woman and a children in one day be 6 units, 4 units and 3 units respectively.
So the total work to be done = 2x6x6 = 72 units
Work done by 3 women and 4 children in one day = 3 x 4 + 4x 3 = 24 units
Remaining work = 72 – 24 = 48 units
Number of men required to complete the remaining work in one day = 48/6 = 8

S8. Ans.(d)
Sol.
Total Students in school = 3600
Number of boys = (4/9) x 3600 = 1600
Number of boys who like hockey = 20% of 1600 = 320
Number of girls = 2000
Number of girls who like hockey = 60% of 2000 = 1200
Number of students who do not like hockey = (1600 – 320) + (2000 – 1200) = 2080

S9. Ans.(b)
Sol.
M1D1/W1 = M2D2/W2
=(42*30)/2800 = (x*20)/1600
x = 36 days

S10. Ans.(b)
Sol.
2 men = 3 women => 1 man + 1 woman = (3/2 +1)women
w1D1 = w2D2 => 3*4 = 5/2*D2 => D2= 24/5 days.
