Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 3

The monthly incomes of Vasu and Ravi are in the ratio 7 : 8 and their monthly expenditures are in the ratio 3 : 4, respectively. If the respective savings of Vasu and Ravi are Rs. 2,400 and Rs. 1,600, then find the monthly income of Ravi.

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 3

Ratio of monthly incomes of Vasu and Ravi = 7 : 8
Let their incomes be 7x and 8x, respectively.
Ratio of their expenditures = 3 : 4
Expenditure = Income - Savings
Savings of Vasu = Rs. 2,400
His expenditure = (7x - 2,400)
Savings of Ravi = Rs. 1,600
His expenditure = (8x - 1,600)
According to question:
$\small \frac{(7x-2400)}{(8x-1600)} = \small \frac{3}{4}$
 28x - 9,600 = 24x - 4,800
 4x = 4,800
 x = 1,200
Monthly income of Ravi = 8x = (8 × 1,200) = Rs. 9,600

Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 4

A father left a will that his capital of Rs. 18,750 should be divided between his two sons aged 12 years and 14 years, respectively, when they attain maturity at the age of 18 years. The amount received by each at 5% simple interest would be the same. Find the sum allotted to the elder son.

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 4

 Let the amount be Rs. x and Rs. y for the younger and elder son, respectively.
x + y = Rs. 18,750 ... (I)
Applying simple interest :
 x (1 + 6 × 5/100) = y (1 + 4 × 5/100) [ We know: S.I = (P×R×T)/100]
 x/12 = y/13 = 750
 x = Rs. 9,000
y = Rs. 9,750
Hence, amount allotted to elder son = Rs. 9,750

Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 5

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 5

Net rate = 2%
SI at 2% of money transacted = 
x = 120 crore

Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 6

The price of wheat is reduced by 4%. How many more or less kg of wheat can now be bought for the money which was sufficient to buy 48 kg wheat earlier?

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 6

Given:

The price of wheat is reduced by 4%.

Assumption:

Let the price of wheat be Rs.100/kg.

Calculation:

The price of 48 kg wheat  = 4800

As price is reduce by 4% it means that it became 96% of initial 100% hence,

After price decrease = 4800/96 = 50 kg

Hence, the required quantity of wheat = (50 – 48) = 2 kg more.

Ratio of the volume to the surface area = r : 3

Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 8

Three groups of children contain 3 girls and 1 boy, 2 girls and 2 boys, and 1 girl and 2 boys respectively. One child is selected at random from each group. The probability that the three selected consist of 1 girl and 2 boys is

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 8

Girl and Boy and Boy or Boy and Girl and Boy Or Boy and Boy and Girl
= (3/4) X(2/4) X(2/3) + (1/4) X(2/4) X(2/3) + (1/4) X(2/4) X(1/3) = 18/48 = 3/8.

Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 9

The dimensions of a field are 20 m by 9 m. A pit 10 m long, 4.5 m wide and 3 m deep is dug in one corner of the field and the earth removed is evenly spread over the remaining area of the field. What will be the rise in the height of the field as a result of this operation?

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 9

Volume of the earth removed = Area of remaining field × Rise in Height
⇒10 × 4.5 × 3 = (180 – 45) × h
135/135 = h
⇒ h = 1

Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 10

In the beginning of 2020, the population of three cities 'A', 'B', and 'C' was in the ratio of 4 : 5 : 6 respectively. During the year 2021, the population of respective cities increased by a percentage in the ratio of 7 : 5 : 9. In the beginning of 2021, the population of city 'C' was 27000 more than that of the beginning of the year 2020 and in the beginning of the year 2021 the ratio of the population of A : B was 108 : 125 then during the year 2020, what was the sum of the increase in the population of all the cities together?

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 10

Given:

Population of A : B : C = 4 : 5 : 6 (in the beginning of 2020)

Percentage increase in the population of A : B : C = 7 : 5 : 9

Population of city 'C' (in 2021) - Population of city 'C' (in 2020) = 27000

Population of A : B (in the beginning of 2021) = 108 : 125

Calculation:

Let the population of city 'A', 'B' and 'C' was 7x, 5x and 9x (in the beginning of 2020)

And the percentage increase in the population of cities = 7y%, 5y%, and 9y%.

ATQ, 6x × [(100 + 9y)/100] - 6x = 27000 ...(i)

Again (4x) × [(100 + 7y)/100]/(5x) × [(100 + 5y)/100] = 108/125

⇒ (100 + 7y)/(100 + 5y) = 27/25

⇒ 40y = 200

⇒ y = 5

Using (i)

⇒ 6x × 145% - 6x = 27000

⇒ x = 10000

Population of city A (in 2020) = 4x = 40000

Population of city B (in 2020) = 5x = 50000

Population of city C (in 2020) = 6x = 60000

The sum of the increase in the population of all the cities together = 35% × 40000 + 25% × 50000 + 45% × 60000 = 53500

Hence, the correct answer is 53500.

Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 13

Shalaj and Associates, a shoe-manufacturing company, has three machines producing shoes. If machine X produces l/4th as many as machine Y produces in the same time, and machine Y produces twice as many as machine Z produces in the same time, then during a fixed time, what fraction of the total number of shoes is produced by machine Z?

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 13

► Assume that Y produces 4P units in unit time.
► Then X and Z produce P and 2P units in the same time.
► So, Total shoes produced = 7P, Fraction of the total number of shoes produced by machine Z = 2/7

Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 15

A alone can do a piece of work in 6 days and B alone in 8 days. A and B undertook to do it for Rs. 3200. With the help of C, they completed the work in 3 days. How much is to be paid to C?

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: Numerical Ability - 10 - Question 15

C's 1 day's work = 1/3 - (1/6 + 1/8)
⇒ 1/3 - 7/24
⇒ 1/24
A's wages : B's wages : C's wages = 1/6 : 1/8 : 1/24
⇒ 4 : 3 : 1
C's share (for 3 days) = Rs.(3 * 1/24 * 3200)
⇒ Rs. 400
