The difference in compound interest earned on a deposit (compounded annually) in year 1 and year 2 is $ 40. Had the interest rate been three times its present value, the difference a would have been how much?
Choose the correct choice from the following options
A) 40/3
B) 40
C) 120
D) 360
E) 420

Solution: CASE 1:   Deposit = $x;   Rate of increase = r.   Interest yearned in 1 year = xr. Deposit in 1 year = x + xr.   Interest yearned in 2 year = (x + xr)r.   The difference a= (x + xr)r - xr = xr^2 = 40.   CASE 2:   Deposit = $x;   Rate of increase = 3r.   Interest yearned in 1 year = x(3r). Deposit in 1 year = x + 3xr.   Interest yearned in 2 year = (x + 3xr)3r.   The difference = (x + 3xr)3r - 3xr = 9xr^2. Since from CASE 1 we know that xr^2 = 40, then 9xr^2 = 9*40= 
9*40 = 360
360.   Answer: 360.

A student has to select 3 subject out of 6 subjects M,B,H,U,L. If he has chosen M, what is the probability of B being chosen ? Pick.
A) 2/5
B) 1/5
C) 3/5
D) 7/5
E) None of these

Solution: Explanation :   Out of 6 subjects, one subject M has already been chosen. Ramaining 2 subjects are to be choden from rest (6-1) i.e 5 subjects.   Without restriction, no. of selections = 5C2.   With restriction, no. of selection of B from rest 4 subject = 4C1.   => Probability   = Selections with restriction / Selections without restriction   = 4C1 / 5C2 .   = 2 / 5.   Hence, the probability of subject B being chosen is 2 / 5.   2/5nswer : 2/5

A store reported total sales of $480 million for February of this year. If the total sales for the same month last year was $320 million, approximately what was the percent increase in sales?	Choose the most appropriate option:
A) 2%
B) 17%
C) 50%
D) 65%
E) 83%

Solution: New Value – Old Value)/Old Value x 100   We are given:   February sales this year = 480 million   February sales last year = 320 million   We need to determine the percent increase between sales from last year to sales this year.   Thus, the new value = 480 million and the old value = 320 million. Let’s plug them into our percent change formula.   (New Value – Old Value)/Old Value x 100   [(480 – 320)/320] x 100   = 50%.   The answer is 50%.

In a river flowing at 2 km/hr, a boat travels 32 km upstream and then returns downstream to the starting point. If its speed in still water be 6 km/hr, find the total journey time.	Answers
A) 10 hours
B) 12 hours
C) 14 hours
D) 16 hours
E) None of these

Solution: Explanation :   speed of the boat = 6 km/hr   Speed downstream = (6+2)= 
(6+2) = 8
8 km/hr   Speed upstream= (6-2)= 
(6-2) = 4
4 km/hr   Distance travelled downstream= Distance travelled upstream = 32 km   Total time taken = Time taken downstream + Time taken upstream   = (32/8) + (32/4) = (32/8) + (64/8) = (96/8)= 
(96/8) = 12

A) 22 B) 33 C) 55 D) 77 E) 39

Solution: Let f = pure fuji , g = pure gala and c - cross pollinated.   c = 10% of x where x is total trees.   c = .1x   also 3x/4 = f and c+f = 221 => .1x + 3/4x = 221 => x = 260   260 - 221 = pure gala = 39.   39

If the average (arithmetic mean) of a and b is 115, and the average of b and c is 160, what is the value of a − c?	Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) −220 B) −100 C) −90 D) 135 E) It cannot be determined from the information given

Solution: Question: a - c = ?   (a + b)/ 2 =115 ===> a + b = 230   (b + c)/2 = 160 ===> b + c = 320   (a + b) - (b + c) = 230 - 320 ===> a + b - b - c = - 90 ===> a - c = - 90   Answer: −90

A man by motorcycle goes from Delhi to Bharatpur , a distance of 192 km, at an average speed of 32 kmph. Another man starts from Delhi by car 2.5 h after the motorcyclist starts and reaches Bharatpur half an hour late. What is the ratio of person on the motorcycle to the person going by car ? Choose the correct choice from the following answers:
A) 1:2  B) 2:3  C) 10:27  D) 5:4  E) 4:5

Solution: A man by motorcycle goes from Delhi to bharatpur   The time take by the motorcyclist = 192/32= 
192/32 = 6
6 hours   Another man start from Delhi be car after 2.5 hour the man starts= 6 - 2.5= 
6 - 2.5 = 3.5
3.5   and the man on can reaches half and hour late which is= 3.5 + .5= 
3.5 + .5 = 4
4   Thus, the ratio between motorcycle to car is 4:6   or, 2:3.   ANSWER:2:3

Answer: D
A man sitting in a train which is traveling at 50 kmph observes that a goods train, traveling in opposite direction, takes 9 seconds to pass him. If the goods train is 150 m long, find its speed.	Choose the correct option:  A) 20 km/hr  B) 10 km/hr  C) 15 km/hr  D) 18 km/hr  E) 19 km/hr

Solution: speed of train = 50 kmph = 50*5/18 = 250/18 m/sec   relative speed =(250/18)+x where x is speed of goods train   then   150/((250/18)+x) = 9   solving it, we get   x= 50/18 m/sec = 10 km/hr   ANSWER:10 km/hr

Answer: A
During a certain two-week period, 70 percent of the movies rented from a video store were comedies, and of the remaining movies rented, there were 5 times as many dramas as action movies. If no other movies were rented during that two-week period and there were A action movies rented, then how many comedies, in terms of A, were rented during that two-week period?	Choices.
A) A/14
B) 5A/7
C) 7A/5
D) 14A
E) 35A

Solution: Total movies = 100.   Comedies = 70.   Action + Drama = 30. Since there were 5 times as many dramas as action movies, then Action + 5*Action = 30 --> Action = A = 5.   Comedies = 70 = 14A.   Answer: 14A.

Answer: D
A man had a stock of 500 books in his bookshop. He sold 25 on Monday, 50 on Tuesday 30 on Wednesday, 100 on Thursday and 150 on Friday. What percentage of the books were not sold?
Select the correct option:  A) 8%  B) 10%  C) 29%  D) 44%  E) 16%

Solution: Let N be the total number of books sold. Hence   N = 25 + 50 + 30 + 100 + 150= 
25 + 50 + 30 + 100 + 150 = 355
355   Let M be the books NOT sold   M= 500 - N = 500- 355= 
500- 355 = 145
145   Percentage   Books not sold / total number of books= 145/500= 
145/500 = 29/100 = around 0.29
0.29= 29%   correct answer 29%
