Question Detail
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 ?
- 23
- 27
- 31
- 33
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.
1. A dog takes 3 leaps for every 5 leaps of a hare. If one leap of the dog is equal to 3 leaps of the hare, the ratio of the speed of the dog to that of the hare is
- 4:5
- 9:5
- 8:5
- 9:2
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Dog : Hare = (3*3) leaps of hare : 5 leaps of hare
= 9 : 5
2. In a college, the ratio of the number of boys to girls is 8 : 5. If there are 200 girls, the total number of students in the college is
- 420
- 520
- 620
- 720
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let the boy are 8x and Girls are 5x
=> 5x = 200
=> x = 40
Total students = 8x+5x = 13x = 13(40) = 520
3. The least whole number which when subtracted from both the terms of the ratio 6 : 7 to give a ratio less than 16 : 21, is
- 3
- 4
- 5
- 6
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Let x is subtracted.
Then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{(6-x)}{(7-x)}< \frac{16}{21} \\
21(6—x) < 16(7—x)\\
=> 5x > 14 = x > 2.8
\end{aligned}
Least such number is 3
4. 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}
5. Find the fourth proportion to 2,3,6
- 18
- 12
- 9
- 4
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
2:3 :: 6:x
=> 2/3 = 6/x
=> x = 18/2
=> x = 9
