Answers :

1.5;Cost price of V = Rs.50
Transportation cost = Rs.30
Total cost price = 50+30=Rs.80
Profit = 4%
Selling price = 80*104/100 = Rs.83.2

2.2; Selling price of X = (Cost price + Cost on transportation + Profit) = 250+20+5=275
Cost price of W =Selling price + Loss
= 100+10=Rs.110
Required  % = 275*100/110%
=250%

3.4; Loss on Y = Cost price of Y - selling price of Y
= 400*100/96-400 =416.66-400 = Rs.16.66
Loss on W = Rs.10
Reqd ratio = 16.66:10=833:500

4.3; Selling price of Z = Cost price of Z+Cost on transportation + Profit
=400+40+440*6/100= Rs.466.4
Selling price of X =Rs.275
Difference =466.4-275=Rs.191.4

5.3; Selling price of V = (Cost price + Cost of Transportation)*95/100=
(50+30) *95/100 = Rs.76
Selling price of Z = Rs.466.4
Reqd% = (466.4-76)*100/466.4
=83.7%

Answers:

1.4
First number = 40 × 3 – (41 × 3 – 45)
= 120 – 123 + 45 = 42

2. 5
P[(1 + R/100)^3 - 1] = 868 --- (I)
P[(1 + R/100)^2 - 1] = 544 --- (II)

Divinding eq I by II and put, q = 1 + r/100
(q^3 - 1)/(q^2 - 1) = 868/544
[(q - 1)(q^2 + q + 1)]/(q - 1)(q + 1) = 217/136
(q^2 + q + 1)/(q + 1) = 217/136
q^2/q+1 = 81/136
136q^2 - 81q - 81
q = 9/8
1 + r/100 = 9/8
r = 1/8 * 100% = 12 1/2%

d2 = 2
= [20{64 - (36 + 2)} - 2 * 80]/80
= (20 * 26 - 160)/80
(520 - 160)/80 = 4 1/2days

5. 4
Speed of other train = 60 sqroot[(6 2/3 / 3 3/4)]
= 60 sqroot[(20/3 * 3 4/15)]
= 60 * 4/3
= 80 km/hr

6. 2
Let the distance be x km
x/12-4 - x/12 + 4 = 5
x = 80km

7. 1
Let breadth = x m and length = 3/2 km
x * 3/2x = 3/2 * 10000
x^2 = 10000
x = 100 m
Length = 3/2 * 100 = 150m

8. 2
Total surface area = (sum of all three sides)2 – (Diagonal)2
= (24)^2 – (18)^2
= 42 × 6 = 252 cm^2

9. 1
Required number of ways = 2 × 4! × 4! = 1152
