RRB NTPC Mock Test - 14 (English) - Question 28

A person sold a TV for Rs. 9400 and he lost a particular amount. When he sold another TV of the same type at Rs. 10600, his gain was double the former loss. What was the cost price of each TV?

Detailed Solution for RRB NTPC Mock Test - 14 (English) - Question 28

Selling price of TV = Rs.9400

Let loss suffered be Rs.M

Cost price of TV = M + 9400

Selling of other TV= Rs.10600

Gain = 2M

Cost price of other TV = 10600 – 2M

Then,

⇒ M + 9400 = 10600 – 2M

⇒ 3M = 1200

⇒ M = 400

∴ Cost price of an TV = 9400 + 400 = 9800

The average of first ‘n’ natural numbers is 243. What is the average of the first ‘3n’ natural numbers?

Detailed Solution for RRB NTPC Mock Test - 14 (English) - Question 30

As we know,

Sum of n natural numbers = n(n + 1)/2

⇒ Average of n natural numbers = (n + 1)/2

Given, Average of n natural numbers = 243

⇒ (n + 1)/2 = 243

⇒ n + 1 = 486

⇒ n = 486 – 1 = 485

⇒ 3n = 3(485) = 1455

∴ Average of 3n natural numbers = (1455 + 1)/2 = 1456/2 = 728
