An inspector rejects 0.08% of the meters as defective, How many meters he examine to reject 2 meteres

1200
2400
1400
2500

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

It means that 0.08% of x = 2
\begin{aligned}
=> ( \frac{8}{100 \times 100} \times x) = 2 \\
=> x = \frac{2 \times 100 \times 100}{8} \\
=> x = 2500
\end{aligned}

1. In a hotel, 60% had vegetarian lunch while 30% had non-vegetarian lunch and 15% had both type of lunch. If 96 people were present, how many did not eat either type of lunch ?

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
n(A) = \left(\frac{60}{100}*96\right) = \frac{288}{5} \\
n(B) = \left(\frac{30}{100}*96\right) = \frac{144}{5} \\
n(A\cap B) = \left(\frac{15}{100}*96\right) = \frac{72}{5} \\
\text{People who have either or both lunch} \\
n(A\cup B) = \frac{288}{5}+\frac{144}{5}-\frac{72}{5} \\
= \frac{360}{5} = 72
\end{aligned}

So People who do no have either lunch were = 96 -72
= 24

2. One fourth of one third of two fifth of a number is 15. What will be40% of that number

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

(1/4) * (1/3) * (2/5) * x = 15 then x = 15 * 30 = 450
40% of 450 = 180

3. 88% of 370 + 24% of 210 - x = 118

Answer: Option D

4. 1/2 is what percent of 1/3

150%
200%
250%
300%

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

1/2/1/3 * 100 = 1/2 * 3/1 * 100 = 150 %

5. A batsman scored 120 runs which included 3 boundaries and 8 sixes. What percent of his total score did he make by running between the wickets.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Number of runs made by running = 110 - (3 x 4 + 8 x 6)
= 120 - (60)
= 60

Now, we need to calculate 60 is what percent of 120.

=> 60/120 * 100 = 50 %
