1. Rahul's Mathematics test had 75 problems, 10 arithmetic, 30 algebra, 35 geometry problems. Although he answered 70% of arithmetic, 40% of arithmetic and 60% of geometry problems correctly, still he got less than 60% problems right. How many more questions he would have to answer more to get passed
- 5
- 6
- 7
- 8
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Number of questions attempted correctly = (70% of 10 + 40% of 30 + 60% of 35)
= 7 + 12 + 21 = 40.
Questions to be answered correctly for 60% = 60% of total quations
= 60 % of 75 = 45.
He would have to answer 45 - 40 = 5
2. Total number of boys and girls in a school is 150. If the number of boys is x, then girls become x% of the total number of students. The number of boys is
- 50
- 60
- 70
- 80
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Clearly,
x% of 150 = 150 - x [as x is number of boys]
\begin{aligned}
=> x + \frac{x}{100} * 150 = 150 \\
=> \frac{5}{2}x = 150 \\
=> x = 60 \\
\end{aligned}
3. Teacher took exam for English, average for the entire class was 80 marks. If we say that 10% of the students scored 95 marks and 20% scored 90 marks then calcualte average marks of the remaining students of the class.
- 60
- 70
- 75
- 80
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Lets assume that total number of students in class is 100 and required average be x.
Then from the given statement we can calculate :
(10 * 95) + (20 * 90) + (70 * x) = (100 * 80)
=> 70x = 8000 - (950 + 1800) = 5250
=> x = 75.
4. 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.
- 40%
- 50%
- 60%
- 70%
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 %
5. 88% of 370 + 24% of 210 - x = 118
- 150
- 250
- 158
- 258
Answer: Option D
