- None of the above
Answer: b)
Explanation: 14 × 2 - 20 = 27
27 × 2 - 21 = 52
52 × 2 - 22 = 100
100 × 2 - 23 = 192
7. 5, 4, 6, 9, ?
- 12
- 15
- 18
- 21
- None of the above
Answer: a)
Explanation: The series is the average of two consecutive terms of the prime number series.
The prime number series is 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13 and so on
5/2 = (2 + 3)/2
4 = (3 + 5)/2
6 = (5 + 7)/2
9 = (7 + 11)/2
12 = (11 + 13)/2
8. When the price of a laptop was reduced by 15% the sales went up by 50%. How much did the revenue go up?
- 27%
- 8%
- 5%
- 2%
- None of the above
Answer: c)
Explanation: Let the price of the laptop be Rs. 100 and the number of laptops be 100.
So revenue = 100 × 100 = Rs. 10000
Revenue on 150 laptops at the rate of Rs. 85 = 150 × 85 = Rs 12750
Increase in revenue = 12750 – 10000 = Rs. 2750
Percentage increase in revenue= (2750/10000) × 100 = 27.5%
9. How much distance will a car cover in 60 seconds at a speed of 120 kmph?
- 1 km
- 2500 meters
- 5000 meters
- 2000 meters
- None of the above
Answer: d)
Explanation: To convert kmph to mps, multiply the speed in kmph with 5/18.
120 kmph = 5/18 × 120 = 100/3 mps
Distance= Speed * Time
= 100/3 × 60 = 2000 meters
10. There is an aluminum cable of length 132 m. A circle is made by this cable. Find the diameter of the circle formed.
- 28m
- 35m
- 21m
- 42m
- None of the above
Answer: d)
Explanation: Perimeter of the circle formed = Length of the cable.
2πr = 132m, where ‘r’ is the radius of the circle
2 × 22/7 × r = 132
r = (132 × 7)/(22 × 2) = 21m
Diameter = 2r = 2 × 21 = 42m
11. A person lends one of his prize money of Rs. 40,000 to four persons. If he gets an interest of 12% on Rs. 12000 from the first person, 8% for another Rs. 12000, 4% on Rs. 8000, what rate must he get on the remaining part to make his average annual interest 8%?
- 28%
- 18%
- 24%
- 12%
- None of the above
Answer: d)
Explanation:
(12000 × 12/100 × 1) + (12000 × 8/100 × 1) + (8000 × 4/100 × 1) + (8000 × r/100 × 1)
= (40000 × 8/100 × 1)
1440 + 960 + 320 + 80r= 3200
2720 + 80r = 3200
40r = 480
r = 12%
