    Solutions

    Let the original sum be Rs. x.
    Sum of the Ratios = 3 + 5 + 9 + 13 = 30
    .'. c's share = Rs. 9x/30 = Rs 3x/10
    According to the question,
    => 3x/10 - x/10 = 2412
    => 2x/10 = 2412
    => x = 2412 × 5 = Rs. 12060
    .'. Amount received by B and D together
    => ( 5 + 13)/30 x 12060 = Rs 7236.

  • Question 29/35
    1 / -0

    There are 8 brown balls, 4 orange balls and 5 black balls in a bag. Five balls are chosen at random. What is the probability of their being 2 brown balls, 1 orange ball and 2 black balls?

    Solutions

    Total possible outcomes = 17C5 = (17 x 16 x 15 x 14 x 13)/(1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5) = 6188
    Total favourable outcomes = 8C2 × 4C1 × 5C2 = (8 x 7)/(1 x 2) x 4 x (5 x 4)/(1 x 2) = 28 x 4 x 10 = 1120.
    Hence, the required probability = 1120/6188 = 280/1547.

    1 / -0

    The marked price of a machine is Rs. 18000. By selling it at a discount of 20%, the loss is 4%. What is the cost price of the machine?

    Solutions

    Given marked price of machine = Rs. 18000
    .'. Discount = 20/100 × 18000 = Rs. 3600
    .'. SP = 18000 – 3600 = Rs. 14400.
    If loss of 4%, then
    CP = (100 x SP)/(100 - r) = ( 100 x 14400)/(100 - 4)
    = (100 x 14400)/96 = Rs 15000.

  • Question 31/35
    1 / -0

    In a family, a couple has a son and daughter. The age of the father is three times that of his daughter and the age of the son is half of his mother. The wife is nine years younger to her husband and the brother is seven years older than his sister. What is the age of the mother?

    Solutions

    Let the mother’s age be y years.
    .'. The age of father = (y + 9) years
    The age of son = y/2 years
    The age of daughter = (y/2 - 7) years
    Now according to the given condition,
    => (y + 9) = 3(y/2 - 7)
    => y + 9 = (3y - 42)/2
    => 2y + 18 = 3y - 42
    => y = 60 years.

  • Question 32/35
    1 / -0

    A car travels a distance of 560 km in 9.5 hours partly at a speed of 40 kmh–1 and partly at 160 kmh–1. What is the distance it travel at the speed of 160 km/h?

    Solutions

    Let the distance it travelled at the speed of 160 km/h be ‘x’ km.
    .'. x/160 + (560 - x)/40 = 9.5
    => [x + 4(560 - x)]/160 = 9.5
    => x + 2240 - 4x = 1520
    => 3x = 720
    => x = 240 km.

  • Question 33/35
    1 / -0

    Find the rate of the stream, if a boat covers 120 km downstream and 40 km upstream in 4 hours.

    Solutions

    Distance covered in downstream = 120 km
    Time taken in downstream = 4 hours.
    Rate of downstream = distance / time = a = 120km / 4 hours = 30 km/hr.
    Distance covered in upstream = 40 km
    Since it takes same time to cover this 40km, Time taken in upstream = 4 hours.
    Rate of upstream = distance / time = b = 40km / 4 hours = 10 km/hr.
    Speed of stream = (a - b)/2 = (1/2)(30 - 10) km/hr = 10 km/hr.

  • Question 34/35
    1 / -0

    The average of the 9 consecutive positive integers is 63. The product of the largest and smallest integers is

    Solutions

    Let positive consecutive integers are x, x + 1, x + 2 ..., x + 8.
    Average = [x + (x+1) + ......+ (x + 8)]/9 = 63
    => (9x + 36)/9 = 63
    => x + 4 = 63 
    => x = 59
    Largest number, x + 8 = 59 + 8 = 67
    Product of largest and smallest = 59 × 67 = 3953.
