RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 4

Three years ago, the average age of A and B was 8 years, With C joining them now, the average becomes 15 years. How old is C now?

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 4

Let the age of A be “x” years, B be ‘y’ years and C be “z” years.

Three years ago,

Age of A = x – 3 years

Age of B = y – 3 years

Average of age of A and B = (A + B)/2 = 8 years

⇒ (x + y -6)/2 = 8

⇒ x + y – 6 = 16

⇒ x + y = 22

Now average of A,B and C = 15 years

⇒ (A + B + C)/3 = 15

⇒ x + y + z = 45

⇒ 22 + z = 45

⇒ z = 23 years

RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 9

5 men can do a piece of work in 12 days and 10 women can do the same work in 15 days. 5 men and 10 women undertook the same work for Rs. 36,000. They finished the work in 5 days with the help of 15 children. What is the share of 5 children?

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 9

Time taken by 5 men to do a piece of work = 12 days

∴ Work done by 5 men in 1 day = 1/12

Time taken by 10 women to do the same work = 15 days

∴ Work done by 10 women in 1 day = 1/15

With the help of 15 children they finished the work = 5 days

∴ Work done by (5 men + 10 women + 15 children) in 1 day = 1/5

So, work by 15 children in 1 day = 1/5 - 1/12 - 1/15 = 1/20

Time taken by 15 children to do the same work = 20 days

The ratio of their time = 12 : 15 : 20

We know, the efficiency is inversely proportional to the time

So, ratio of their efficiency = 1/12 : 1/15 : 1/20 = 5 : 4 : 3

So, 5 + 4 + 3 = 12 unit = 36,000

⇒ 1 unit = 3,000

⇒ 3 unit = 9,000

∴ Share of 15 children is 9,000

So, share of 1 child = 9,000/15 = 600

So, share of 5 children = 600 × 5 = 3,000

M is the largest three-digit number which when divided by 6 and 5 leaves remainder 5 and 3 respectively. What will be the remainder when M is divided by 11?

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 20

Lcm of (6, 5) = 30

Let’s assume the number be "30K + constant", where Constant is the remainder.

let that number be ‘M’

⇒ M/6 = 5 (remainder)

M could be 5, 11, 17, 23, 29, ...

⇒ M/5 = 3 (remainder) 

M could be 3, 8, 13, 18, 23, 28, ...

The very first number common in both term is 23.

⇒ M is 23 i.e. a constant term

⇒ 30K + constant = 30K + 23

The largest three digit number comes when K is 32

⇒ 30 (32) + 23 = 983

∴ When 983 is divided by 11, leaves the remainder 4.

RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 25

A dishonest shopkeeper uses a weight of 850 gm instead of 1 kg and sells rice on its cost price. What will be his profit percentage on selling 5 kg rice?

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 25

Original weight of rice = 1 kg = 1000 gm

Let cost of 1 gm is Rs. 1

Cost price of 1000 gm = Rs. 1000

Selling price of 850 gm = Rs. 1000 (∵ giving only 850 gm instead of 1000 gm)

Profit = [error/ (true weight)] × 100

⇒ Profit = [(1000 - 850)/ 850] × 100 = (150/850) × 100 = 17.65%

∴ profit % on 5kg is equal to profit on 1 kg which is 17.65%

If the amount received at the end of 2nd and 3rd year at Compound Interest on a certain Principal is Rs 1,800, and Rs 1,926 respectively, what is the rate of interest?

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 45

Let the principal be P

⇒ P(1 + r/100)2 = 1800

⇒ 1 + r/100 = √(1800/P)      ----(i)

Also, P(1 + r/100)3 = 1926

⇒ 1 + r/100 = (1926/P)1/3      ----(ii)

⇒ √(1800/P) = (1926/P)1/3

⇒ P = 1572

Putting the value of P in (i), we get

⇒ 1 + r/100 = √(1800/1572)

⇒ 1 + r/100 = 1.07

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 53

Given,

A and B together have six times the sum what B and C together have

∴ A + B = 6(B + C)…..(1)

A, B and C together have Rs. 30 more than the sum that A has

∴ A + B + C = A + 30

⇒ B + C = 30…..(2)

B has four times the sum than that of C.

∴ B = 4C…..(3)

Using (2) and (3)

4C + C = 30

⇒ 5C = 30

⇒ C = Rs. 6

Putting this in (2)

B + 6 = 30

⇒ B = Rs. 24

Putting value of B and C in (1)

A + 24 = 6(24 + 6)

RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 60

On what principle, the difference between compound and simple interest shall come out to be Rs. 366, if the money is kept for 3 years at 5%?

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 60

Let the principal = Rs. 100

Now, S.I. on Rs. 100 = PTR/100

Thus, S.I. on Rs. 100 = Rs. 15

⇒ C.I. on Rs. 100 = Rs. 15.7625

Now, the difference of C.I. and S.I. = 15.7625 – 15 = 0.7625

⇒ For Rs. 100 the difference in C.I. and S.I. is Rs. 0.7625

⇒ For Rs. X the difference in C.I. and S.I. is Rs. 366

∴ On Rs. 48000, the difference of compound and simple interest, shall come out to be Rs. 366

RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 64

A train passes an electrical pole in 30 seconds and passes a platform 240 m long in 2 Minutes. Find the length of the train:

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 64

Let the length of the train be D metres and speed of the train be S m/s

Now As per the basic formula of speed,

S = D/T

Where S = Speed, D = Distance, T = Time

As the train passes an electric pole in 30 seconds

S = D/30  ........eq(i)

As train passes a platform 240 m long in 120 seconds

S = (D + 240)/120  .....eq(ii)

from eq(i) and (ii) we get

D/30 = (D + 240)/120

∴ 4D = D + 240

∴ 3D = 240

∴ D = 80 m

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 84

Given, a + b + c = 8, a2 + b2 + c2 = 30 and a3 + b3 + c3 = 134

∵ (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b+ c2 + 2(ab + bc + ca)

⇒ 82 = 30 + 2(ab + bc + ca)

⇒ 2(ab + bc + ca) = 64 - 30

⇒ (ab + bc + ca) = 34/2 = 17

We know that, 

∵ a3 + b+ c3 – 3abc = (a + b + c) (a2 + b+ c2 – (ab + bc + ca))

⇒ 134 – 3abc = 8 × (30 – 17) = 104

The income of a person is Rs. 45000 and his expenditure is Rs. 33000. If his income is increased by 22% and expenditure increased by 11%, then what will be the percentage increase in his savings?

Detailed Solution for RRB JE CBT 1 - Full Test 8 - Question 86

Initial income = Rs. 45000

Initial Expenditure = Rs. 33000

Savings = Rs. 45000 - Rs. 33000 = Rs. 12000

New Income = 45000 + 22% of 45000 = Rs. 54900

New Expenditure = 33000 + 11% of 33000 = Rs. 36630

New savings = 18270

∴ Percentage increase in savings = [(18270 - 12000)/12000] × 100 = 52.25%

Let the rate of upstream be x kmph and rate of downstream be y kmph

Adding eq (1) and eq(2), we get

⇒ 52(1/x + 1/y) = 33/2

Subtracting eq (1) from eq(2), we get

⇒ 12(1/x – 1/y) = 1/2

Adding eq (3) and eq (4), we get

⇒ 2/x = 14/39

⇒ x = 5.57 kmph

⇒ Substitute x in eq (3), we get
