Question: The average of runs of a cricket player of 10 innings was 32. How many runs must he make in his next innings so as to increase his average of runs by 4 ?
Options:
A)76
B)79
C)85
D)87
E)89
Rationale: Explanation:
Average = total runs / no.of innings = 32
So, total = Average x no.of innings = 32 x 10 = 320.
Now increase in avg = 4runs. So, new avg = 32+4 = 36runs
Total runs = new avg x new no. of innings = 36 x 11 = 396
Runs made in the 11th inning = 396 - 320 = 76 Answer: A

Question: A and B start a business, with A investing the total capital of Rs.50000, on the condition that B pays A interest @ 10% per annum on his half of the capital. A is a working partner and receives Rs.1500 per month from the total profit and any profit remaining is equally shared by both of them. At the end of the year, it was found that the income of A is twice that of B. Find the total profit for the year?
Options:
A)59002
B)59028
C)59128
D)59000
E)59122
Rationale: Explanation:
Interest received by A from B = 10% of half of Rs.50000 = 10% * 25000 = 2500.
Amount received by A per annum for being a working partner = 1500 * 12 = Rs.18000.
Let 'P' be the part of the remaining profit that A receives as his share. Total income of A = (2500 + 18000 + P)
Total income of B = only his share from the remaining profit = 'P', as A and B share the remaining profit equally.
Income of A = Twice the income of B
(2500 + 18000 + P) = 2(P)
P = 20500
Total profit = 2P + 18000
= 2*20500 + 18000 = 59000

Question: After offering a discount of 37.5%, Pankaj sold the rice at a profit of 25%. Had he offered a discount of 41.67%, his profit or loss percent would have been:-
Options:
A)16.66% profit
B)12% loss
C)29.17% loss
D)8.33% profit
E)None of these
Rationale: Explanation :
Let the Marked Price of the rice = 8p,
And the discount is 37.5% i.e 37.5%=(3/8)MP.
Thus, the Selling Price is:-
=>8p-(3/8)8p=5p.
=>5p=CP(25/100)x25.
=>CP=4p.
If he had offered a discount of 41.67%=5/12.
S.P=8p-(5/12)X8p.
=>14p/3.
The profit is:-
=>(14p/3)-4p.
=>2p/3.
Hence, the required profit percentage is :-
=>(2p/3)x100/4p.
=>(100/6)%.
=>16.66%.

Question: The average (arithmetic mean) of 4 different integers is 72. If the largest integer is 90, what is the least possible value of the smallest integer?
Options:
A)1
B)19
C)21
D)30
E)33
Rationale: Total of Integers=72*4=288
Lowest of the least possible integer is when the middle 2 intergers are at the maximum or equal to the highest possible integer.
But all integers are distinct. So if the largest integer is 90, then the middle 2 will be 88 and 89
Lowest of least possible integer = 288-(90+89+88)=288-267=21

Question: The average of 9 results is 50. The average of first four results is 52 and average of last four results is 49 . what is the fifth result?
Options:
A)22
B)27
C)29
D)46
E)92
Rationale: Total of results = 50 x 9 = 450
Total of first four results = 52 x 4 = 208
Total of Last four results = 49 x 4 = 196
Hence the fifth result = 450 - (208 + 196) = 46

Question: Five men and nine women can do a piece of work in 10 days. Six men and twelve women can do the same work in 8 days. In how many days can three men and three women do the work?
Options:
A)50 days
B)23 days
C)20 days
D)65 days
E)22 days
Rationale: (5m + 9w)10 = (6m + 12w)8
=> 50m + 90w = 48w + 96 w => 2m = 6w => 1m = 3w 5m + 9w = 5m + 3m = 8m
8 men can do the work in 10 days.
3m +3w = 3m + 1w = 4m
So, 4 men can do the work in (10 * 8)/4 = 20 days.

Question: A computer manufacturer produces a certain electronic component at a cost of $100 per component. Shipping costs for delivering the components are $4 per unit. Further, the manufacturer has costs of $24,500 a month related to the electronic component regardless of how many it produces. If the manufacturer produces and sells 100 components a month, what is the lowest price it can sell them for such that the costs don't exceed the revenues?
Options:
A)278
B)366
C)349
D)335
E)295
Rationale: $24500 is a fixed cost
Each component is $104 ($100 to produce, $4 to ship)
Manufacturer will be producing and selling 100 components
so therefore the equation to find price would be
100*p = 24500+(100*100)+(100*4)
p = (24500+10000+400)/100
p = 349

Question: Amit and Ananthu can do a work in 15 days and 30 days respectively. Amit started the work and left after 3 days. Ananthu took over and completed the work. In how many days was the total work completed?
Options:
A)28 days
B)20 days
C)23 days
D)25 days
E)27 days
Rationale: Amit’s one day’s work= 1/15
Amit’s 3 day’s work = 1/15 *3 = 1/5
Work left= 1-1/5 = 4/5
Ananthu’s one day’s work= 1/30
Ananthu can do work in = 4/5 *30 = 24 days
So total days = 24+3 = 27 days

Options:
A)130
B)80
C)100
D)120
E)150
Rationale: let e10 =x no. d10 =y no. donald is having x+y notes mona carries 3x+y again x =2y or donald x+y =39
or 3y =39 y =13 ;x =26 , total notes they carry = 104+26 =130
