 | Mihir Sen answered |
Quantity of milk 
Quantity of water in it = (60 - 40) litres = 20 litres.
New ratio = 1 : 2
Let quantity of water to be added further be x litres
Then, milk : water
∴ Quantity of water to be added = 60 litres.
Quantity of water in it = (60 - 40) litres = 20 litres.
New ratio = 1 : 2
Let quantity of water to be added further be x litres
Then, milk : water
∴ Quantity of water to be added = 60 litres.

 | Kiran Reddy answered |
Given:
The ratio of the income of A and B = 7 : 8
The ratio of the income of B and C = 8 : 11
The difference in the income earned by A and C = Rs. 800
Calculation:
According to the question,
The ratio of the income of A and B = 7 : 8
The ratio of the income of B and C = 8 : 11
By combining the ratios, we get,
The ratio of the income of A, B and C = 7 : 8 : 11
Income of C = 11k
Income of A = 7k
The difference in the income earned by A and C = 11k - 7k = 4k
Again according to the question,
⇒ 4k = 800
⇒ k = 200
The income of A, B and C = 7k + 8k + 11k = 26k
Sum of income of A, B and C = 26 × 200 = Rs. 5200
Therefore, 'Rs. 5200' is the required answer.

Let the incomes be 4x, 5x, 6x and the spending be 6y, 7y, 8y and savings are (4x–6y), (5x–7y) & (6x–8y)
Sheldon saves 1/4th of his income.
Sheldon saves 1/4th of his income.
Therefore:
⇒ 4x – 6y = 4x / 4
⇒ 4x – 6y = x
⇒ 3x = 6y
⇒ x / y = 2
∴ y = x / 2
⇒ 4x – 6y = x
⇒ 3x = 6y
⇒ x / y = 2
∴ y = x / 2
Ratio of Sheldon’s Leonard’s & Howard’s savings:
= 4x – 6y : 5x – 7y : 6x – 8y
= x : 5x – 7y : 6x – 8y
= x : 5x – 7x / 2 : 6x – 8x / 2
= x : 3x / 2 : 2x
= 2 : 3 : 4
= x : 5x – 7y : 6x – 8y
= x : 5x – 7x / 2 : 6x – 8x / 2
= x : 3x / 2 : 2x
= 2 : 3 : 4

**Given Information:**
- The sum of three numbers is 98.
- The ratio of the first number to the second number is 2:3.
- The ratio of the second number to the third number is 5:8.
**Let's solve the problem step by step:**
**Step 1:**
Let's assume the three numbers as follows:
- The first number = 2x
- The second number = 3x
- The third number = 8y
**Step 2:**
According to the given information, the sum of the three numbers is 98. Therefore, we can write the equation as:
2x + 3x + 8y = 98
**Step 3:**
Simplifying the equation, we get:
5x + 8y = 98
**Step 4:**
Now, we need to find the values of x and y in order to find the second number.
**Step 5:**
According to the given information, the ratio of the second number to the third number is 5:8. Therefore, we can write the equation as:
3x/8y = 5/8
**Step 6:**
Cross-multiplying the equation, we get:
24x = 40y
**Step 7:**
Simplifying the equation, we get:
3x = 5y
**Step 8:**
Now, we have two equations:
5x + 8y = 98
3x = 5y
**Step 9:**
Substituting the value of 3x from the second equation into the first equation, we get:
5(5y/3) + 8y = 98
25y/3 + 8y = 98
(25y + 24y)/3 = 98
49y/3 = 98
49y = 294
y = 294/49
y = 6
**Step 10:**
Substituting the value of y into the second equation, we get:
3x = 5(6)
3x = 30
x = 30/3
x = 10
**Step 11:**
Now, we can find the second number:
The second number = 3x = 3 * 10 = 30
Therefore, the correct answer is option **B) 30**.

| | Kiran Reddy answered |
Given :
The ratio of the income of X and Y is 4 : 3.
The ratio of monthly expenses of X and Y is 3 : 2.
X and Y save 6000 rupees each month.
Concept used :
Savings = Income - expense
Calculations :
Let the ratio of monthly income of X and Y be 4a and 3a respectively.
Let the ratio of monthly expenses of X and Y be 3b and 2b respectively.
Savings of X = 4a - 3b
4a - 3b = 6000 ....(1)
Savings of Y = 3a - 2b
3a - 2b = 6000 ....(2)
Solving equation 1 and 2
We get a = 6000 and b = 6000
Total monthly income of X and Y = 4a + 3a = 7a
⇒ 7 × 6000
⇒ 42000 rupees
∴ Option 2 is the correct answer.

 | Gowri Chakraborty answered |
Let x is the number of 25 paisa coins then 2x and 3x will be for 10 and 5 paisa coins.
Now 30 rupees equal to 30*100 paisa now total paisa equal to x*25+2x*10+3x*5=3000.
60x = 3000.
x = 50.
Now number 5 paisa coin is 3x equal to 3*50 = 150.

**Given information:**
- The ratio of the number of story books to that of non-story books was 4:3.
- The total number of story books was 1248.
- When some more story books were bought, the ratio became 5:3.
**Let's solve the problem step by step:**
**Step 1: Calculate the number of non-story books**
- Since the ratio of story books to non-story books is 4:3, let's assume the number of story books as 4x and the number of non-story books as 3x.
- According to the given information, the total number of story books is 1248. So, we can write the equation as 4x = 1248.
- Solving the equation, we get x = 1248/4 = 312.
- Therefore, the number of non-story books is 3x = 3 * 312 = 936.
**Step 2: Calculate the number of story books after the purchase**
- After some more story books were bought, the ratio became 5:3. Let's assume the number of additional story books as y.
- Now, the total number of story books is 1248 + y, and the total number of non-story books is still 936.
- According to the new ratio, the equation can be written as (1248 + y)/936 = 5/3.
- Cross-multiplying, we get 3 * (1248 + y) = 5 * 936.
- Simplifying the equation, we have 3744 + 3y = 4680.
- Subtracting 3744 from both sides, we get 3y = 936.
- Dividing both sides by 3, we get y = 936/3 = 312.
**Step 3: Calculate the number of story books bought**
- The number of story books bought is given by the value of y, which we calculated as 312.
Therefore, the number of story books bought is 312.
Hence, the correct answer is option A) 312.
- The ratio of the number of story books to that of non-story books was 4:3.
- The total number of story books was 1248.
- When some more story books were bought, the ratio became 5:3.
**Let's solve the problem step by step:**
**Step 1: Calculate the number of non-story books**
- Since the ratio of story books to non-story books is 4:3, let's assume the number of story books as 4x and the number of non-story books as 3x.
- According to the given information, the total number of story books is 1248. So, we can write the equation as 4x = 1248.
- Solving the equation, we get x = 1248/4 = 312.
- Therefore, the number of non-story books is 3x = 3 * 312 = 936.
**Step 2: Calculate the number of story books after the purchase**
- After some more story books were bought, the ratio became 5:3. Let's assume the number of additional story books as y.
- Now, the total number of story books is 1248 + y, and the total number of non-story books is still 936.
- According to the new ratio, the equation can be written as (1248 + y)/936 = 5/3.
- Cross-multiplying, we get 3 * (1248 + y) = 5 * 936.
- Simplifying the equation, we have 3744 + 3y = 4680.
- Subtracting 3744 from both sides, we get 3y = 936.
- Dividing both sides by 3, we get y = 936/3 = 312.
**Step 3: Calculate the number of story books bought**
- The number of story books bought is given by the value of y, which we calculated as 312.
Therefore, the number of story books bought is 312.
Hence, the correct answer is option A) 312.

Step 1: Set up the proportion
0.75 : x :: 5 : 8
Step 2: Cross-multiply
0.75 * 8 = x * 5
Step 3: Solve for "x"
6 = 5x
Step 4: Divide both sides by 5
x = 6 / 5
Step 5: Simplify the fraction
x = 1.2
Therefore, the value of "x" in the proportion 0.75 : x :: 5 : 8 is equal to 1.2.
Summary:
To find the value of "x" in the given proportion, we set up the proportion and cross-multiply. Then we solve for "x" by dividing both sides of the equation. In this case, the value of "x" is equal to 1.2.

Let x be the number of new men joined the garrison,
The total quantity of food is = 3600(20) (1.5) kg ----------1
Now the available food will be consumed by (3600+x) men
(3600+x) (12) (2) kg --------------2
1 = 2
Solving both the equations
3600(20) (1.5) = (3600+x) (12) (2)
108000 = 86400 + 24x
21600 = 24x
X = 900
900 more men joined the garrison.

Let the shares of A, B, C and D be Rs. 5x, Rs. 2x, Rs. 4x and Rs. 3x respectively.
Then, 4x - 3x = 1000
⇒ x = 1000.
∴ B's share = Rs. 2x = Rs. (2 x 1000) = Rs. 2000.

Given:
₹ 785 in the denomination of ₹ 2, ₹ 5 and ₹ 10 coins
The coins are in the ratio of 6 : 9 : 10
Calculation:
Let the number of coins of ₹ 2, ₹ 5 and ₹ 10 be 6x, 9x, and 10x respectively
⇒ (2 × 6x) + (5 × 9x) + (10 × 10x) = 785
⇒ 157x = 785
∴ x = 5
Number of coins of ₹ 5 = 9x = 9 × 5 = 45
∴ 45 coins of ₹ 5 are in the bag
₹ 785 in the denomination of ₹ 2, ₹ 5 and ₹ 10 coins
The coins are in the ratio of 6 : 9 : 10
Calculation:
Let the number of coins of ₹ 2, ₹ 5 and ₹ 10 be 6x, 9x, and 10x respectively
⇒ (2 × 6x) + (5 × 9x) + (10 × 10x) = 785
⇒ 157x = 785
∴ x = 5
Number of coins of ₹ 5 = 9x = 9 × 5 = 45
∴ 45 coins of ₹ 5 are in the bag
