Question Detail

If Rs. 782 is divided into three parts, proportional to
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{2}:\frac{2}{3}:\frac{3}{4}
\end{aligned}

find the first part.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{2}:\frac{2}{3}:\frac{3}{4} \\
= 6:8:9\\
\text{First part =} 782 * \frac{6}{23} \\
= 204
\end{aligned}

1. If A:B:C = 2:3:4, then find

\begin{aligned}
\frac{A}{B}:\frac{B}{C}:\frac{C}{A}

\end{aligned}

5:9:24
6:9:24
7:9:24
8:9:24

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let A = 2x, B = 3x, C = 4x, then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{A}{B} = \frac{2x}{3x} = \frac{2}{3} \\
\frac{B}{C} = \frac{3x}{4x} = \frac{3}{4} \\
\frac{C}{A} = \frac{4x}{2x} = \frac{2}{1} \\

=> \frac{A}{B}:\frac{B}{C}:\frac{C}{A} \\
= \frac{2}{3}:\frac{3}{4}:\frac{2}{1} \\
= 8:9:24

\end{aligned}

2. The salaries of A, B and C are of ratio 2:3:5. If the increments of 15%, 10% and 20% are done to their respective salaries, then find the new ratio of their salaries.

20:33:60
21:33:60
22:33:60
23:33:60

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let A salary be 2k
B salary be 3k and C salary be 5k

\begin{aligned}
\text{A's new salary = }\frac{115}{100}*2k \\
= \frac{23}{10}k \\
\text{B's new salary = }\frac{110}{100}*3k \\
= \frac{33}{10}k \\
\text{C's new salary = }\frac{120}{100}*5k \\
= 6k \\

\text{New ratio = }\\
\frac{23k}{10}:\frac{33k}{10}:6k \\
= 23:33:60 \\
\end{aligned}

3. If 2 : 9 :: x : 18, then find the value of x

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Treat 2:9 as 2/9 and x:18 as x/18, treat :: as =

So we get 2/9 = x/18
=> 9x = 36
=> x = 4

4. Rs. 120 are divided among A, B, C such that A's share is Rs. 20 more than B's and Rs. 20 less than C's. What is B's share

Rs 10
Rs 20
Rs 24
Rs 28

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let C = x. Then A = (x—20) and B = (x—40).
x + x - 20 + x - 40 = 120 Or x=60.
A:B:C = 40:20:60 = 2:1 :3.
B's share = Rs. 120*(1/6) = Rs. 20

5. There are two numbers and their ratio is 3 : 9. If we substract 9 from both numbers then their ratio becomes 12 : 13, what is value is smaller number ?

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

From question, lets assume that two numbers are 3x and 5x.

\begin{aligned}
\text{then, }\frac{3x - 9}{ 5x - 9} = \frac{12}{23}\\
=> \text{23(3x - 9) = 12(5x - 9)}\\
=> 9x = 99 \\
=> x = 11
\end{aligned}
So numbers are 3(11) = 33, 5(11) = 55.
Smaller number is 33.
