Mathematics
- Successive discounts of 20% and 15% are equal to a single discount of?
B. 32%
C. 34%
D. 35%
E. 36See the Answer
Solution: B
Let the initial amount be = $100
After discount of 20%, it becomes = $80
After further discount of 15%, it becomes = $68
So, total discount = $32
Percent discount = 32/100 × 100 = 32%
- Find the next number of the series.
563, 647, 479, 815, …?
A. 672
B. 386
C. 279
D. 143
E. 368See the Answer
Solution: D
The pattern followed here is:
563 + 84 × 20 = 647
647 – 84 × 21 = 479
479 + 84 × 22 = 815
∴ next term will be: 815 – 84 × 23 = 143
Hence, the answer is 143.
- A car travels a certain distance taking 7 hrs in forward journey. During the return journey, the speed is increased by 12km/hr and the car takes 5 hrs to reach the destination. What is the distance travelled in one way?
A. 210 kms
B. 30 kms
C. 20 kms
D. 60 kms
E. None of
Solution: A
For Forward Journey:
Speed = S kmph
Time = 7 Hrs.
Distance = D kms
Distance = (Speed) × (Time)
D = 7S ………………. (i)
For Return Journey
Speed = (S + 12) kmph
Time = 5 hrs.
Distance = D kms
Distance = (Speed) × (Time)
D = (S+12) × 5 ………………. (ii)
Distance travelled is same,
So, 7S = 5S + 60
S = 30 kmph
Distance = 30 × 7 = 210 kms
Hence Option (A)
- What will be the difference between the compound interest and simple interest at the rate of 5% p.a. on an amount of $4000 at the end of two years?
A. $10
B. $20
C. $30
D. Data inadequate
E. None of these
Solution: A
Compound interest is obtained by adding the simple interest on the simple interest for first year.
So, the difference is simply the simple interest on the simple interest obtained on the sum during the first year.
Formula for simple interest, SI = P × R × T / 100
Where,
SI = simple interest
P = Principal Amount
R = Rate of interest
T = time duration in years
Simple interest for first year = 4000 × 5 × 1 / 100 = 200
∴ Simple interest on the interest = 200 × 5 × 1 / 100 = 10
- if a sales man gets successive gain of 15% and 20% then his actual gain?
A. 35%
B. 5%
C. 38%
D. 45%
E. None of these
Solution: C
We have Gain 1 = 15% and gain 2 = 20%.
Then to find the overall gain
We need to use the formula for successive gains as
Total gain = a + b + ab/100
Hence, total gain = 20 + 15 + 15 × 20/100
⇒ 20 + 15 + 3
⇒ 38
