DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 13

A sum of money at simple interest amounts to Rs. 815 in 3 years and to Rs. 854 in 4 years. The sum is :

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 13

S.I. for 1 year = Rs. (854 - 815) = Rs. 39.

S.I. for 3 years = Rs.(39 * 3) = Rs. 117.

 Principal = Rs. (815 - 117) = Rs. 698.

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 14

In an election between 2 candidates, Walter gets 80% of the total valid votes. If the total votes were 12000, what is the number of valid votes that the other candidate Jesse Pinkman gets if 15% of the total votes were declared invalid?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 14

 Total votes = 12000.
 Total Valid votes = 85% of 12000 = 10200.
 Walter gets 80% of 10200 votes = 8160 votes.
 Jesse Pinkman would get 10200 – 8160 = 2040 Votes. 

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 15

There is 80% increase in an amount in 8 years at simple interest. What will be the compound interest of Rs. 14,000 after 3 years at the same rate? 

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 15

Simple interest = P * r * t /100, where, P is the Principal, r is the rate of interest and t is the time period such that the rate of interest and the time period have mutually compatible units like r % per annum and t years.

Here, in the first case, let the Principal be Rs.P and rate of interest be r % per annum. Time period is given as 8 years . Interest is given as 80 P / 100
So, 80 P / 100 = P * r * 8 / 100
Or, 80 = 8 r
So, r = 10 % per annum.

Now, in the second case, Principal is given as Rs. 14,000, rate of compound interest is 10 % per annum as determined above; and t is 3 years.
Compound interest = P * ( 1 + r/100)t - P 
= 14,000 * ( 1+ 10 /100)3 - 14,000
= 14,000 * ( 1 + 0.1)3 - 14,000
= 14,000 *(1.1)3 - 14,000
(14,000 * 1.331) - 14,000
= 18,634 - 14,000 = 4,634
So, the compound interest on Rs.14,000 at the same rate of interest as in case 1 in 3 years will be Rs. 4,634.

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 16

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 17

A and B can do a work in 8 days B and C in 12 days, C and A in 16 days. All worked for 2 days. How many days willA take to finish the work.

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 17

Correct Answer :- d

Explanation : A and B do (1/8)th of the work in a day.

B and C do (1/12)th of the work in a day.

A and C do (1/16)th of the work in a day.

2A, 2B and 2C do (1/8)+(1/12)+(1/16) = (18/144)+(12/144)+(9/144) = (39/144) or (13/48)th of the work in a day.

Or A, B and C do (13/96)th of the work in a day.

So A, B and C together will complete the whole work in 96/13

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 18

Study the following line graph and answer the questions.

Exports from Three Companies Over the Years (in Rs. crore)

Q.
In how many of the given years, were the exports from Company Z more than the average annual exports over the given   years?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 18

Average annual exports of Company Z during the given period
= 1/7 x (60 + 90 + 120 + 90 + 60 + 80 + 100)
= Rs. ( 600 /7)crores
= Rs. 85.71 crores.
From the analysis of graph the exports of Company Z are more than the average annual exports of Company Z (i.e., Rs. 85.71 crores) during the years 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1999, i.e., during 4 of the given years.

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 19

A piece of work can be done by 6 men and 5 women in 6 days or 3 men and 4 women in 10 days. It can be done by 9 men and 15 women in how many days ?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 19

To calculate the answer we need to get 1 man per day work and 1 woman per day work.
Let 1 man 1 day work =x
and 1 woman 1 days work = y. 
=> 6x+5y = 1/6 
and 3x+4y = 1/10 
On solving, we get x = 1/54 and y = 1/90 
(9 men + 15 women)'s 1 days work = 
(9/54) + (15/90) = 1/3 
9 men and 15 women will finish the work in 3 days

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 20

By selling an article for Rs. 480 a person lost 20%. For how much should he sell it to make a profit of 20%.

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 20

The correct option is C.
To make a profit of 20%, he has to sell the article for Rs. 720.
When he sold it for 480 he had lost 20%. So 80% of the actual price is 480. Hence the actual price of the article is (480×100÷80) = 600. To make a profit of 20% we have to calculate 120×600÷100=720.

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 21

The average weight of 8 persons increases by 2.5 kg when a new person comes in place of one of them weighing 65 kg. What might be the weight of the new person ?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 21

Total weight increased = (8 x 2.5) kg = 20 kg.

Weight of new person = (65 + 20) kg = 85 kg.

 

So, the correct option is 'C'

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 22

 Study the following graph carefully to answer the given questions

Time taken by the pipes to fill a tank/cistern (hours/minutes)

Two pipes M and N can fill a tank. If both the pipes are opened simultaneously, after how much time should N be closed so that the tank is full in 8 minutes?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 22

Required time = y(1-(t/x)) = 27(1-(8/24))= 18 minutes

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 23

(Q.no: 16 -20). Refer to the table and answer the given questions.

In 2013, if the number of valid votes of female was 100, what was the respective ratio of number of valid votes of male and number of valid votes of female same year?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 23

38% of 1000 = 380
Valid votes of Female = 100
Valid votes of Male = 380 – 100 = 280
=> 280:100
=> 14:5

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 24

The profit percentage of P and Q is same on selling the articles at Rs. 1800 each but P calculates his profit on the selling price while Q calculates it correctly on the cost price which is equal to 20%. What is the difference in their profits?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 24

Explanation:
Profit(Calculated on SP) = 20% of 1800 = 360
Profit(calculated on CP)
x + x/5 = 1800
x = 1500
Profit = 300
Difference = 360 – 300 = 60

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 25

(√ 7744 * 66 ) ÷ (203 + 149)= ?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 25

5808/352 = 16.5

So option D is correct

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 26

(√3 + 1)² = ? + √12

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 26

(√3 + 1)² = ? + √12
3 + 2√3 + 1 = ? + 2√3 = 4

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 27

Distance travelled by them in first hour = 12 km
Distance travelled by them in second hour = 13 km and so on
In 9 hours both will cover exactly 144 km.
In 9 hours each will cover half the total distance.

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 28

L.C.M. of 6, 9, 15 and 18 is 90.
Let required number be 90k + 4, which is multiple of 7.
Least value of k for which (90k + 4) is divisible by 7 is k = 4.
Required number = (90 x 4) + 4 = 364.

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 29

In a private company 60% of the employees are men and 48% of the employees are Engineer and 66.6% of Engineers are men. The percentage of women who are not engineers is?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 29

A. 60%
Explanation: Men = 600x Women = 400x Total engineers = 480x Male engineers = 480x * 0.66 = 320x Women who are Engineers = 160x Women who are not Engineers = 400x – 160x = 240x Required percentage = 240/400 * 100 = 60%

DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 30

The expenses of an all boys’ institute are partly constant and partly vary as the number of boys. The expenses were 10,000 for 150 boys and 8400 for 120 boys. What will the expenses be when there are 330 boys?

Detailed Solution for DSSSB TGT Social Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 30

► Expenses for 120 boys = 8400
► Expenses for 150 boys = 10000.
Thus, variable expenses are 1600 for 30 boys.
► If we add 180 more boys to make it 330 boys,
we will get an additional expense of 1600 * 6 = 9600.
► Total expenses are Rs 19600.
