A contractor planned to finish a work in 12 days and employed a certain number of men. However, 6 of them remained absent from the very first day. The rest could finish the work in 20 days. Find the number of men originally employed.
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 6
Let the contractor employ 'x' men to complete the task in 12 days.
Thus, total work = (12x) men days ----(1)
But, 6 out of 'x' men were absent and the remaining completed the work in 20 days.
Thus, total work = 20(x - 6) men days ----(2)
Using (1) and (2), we get
12x = 20(x - 6)
12x = 20x - 120
8x = 120
x = 15
Hence, 15 men were employed originally.

Runs after 40 overs = 40 × 4.8 = 192
Required runs = 241 - 192 = 49
Remaining overs = 50 - 40 = 10
Required run rate = 49/10 = 4.9
So, option 4 is correct.

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 12
We have to solve this question according to the BODMAS rule.
4.5 − (3.2 ÷ 0.8 × 5) + 3 × 4 ÷ 6

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 13
Let CP = Rs. 100, profit = 170% and SP = Rs. 270

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 14
Area of bigger circle = π(14)2 = 196π

Area of the bigger circle, which is not enclosed by the two smaller circles = 196π - 98π = 98π
= 308 cm2
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 15
The table below shows income (in rupees) for a particular month, together with their sources in respect of 5 employees A, B, C, D and E.

How many employees have their salary more than four times their other incomes?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 15
Salary of B = 59,000
Other income of B excluding salary = 59,000 - 48,500 = 10,500
Four time of other income of B = 4 × 10,500 = 42,000
Salary of C = 42,000
Total income of C = 52,000
Other incomes of C excluding salary = 10,000
Four times of salary of C = 40,000
Hence B and C have salary more than four times their other incomes.
Hence, option (2) is correct.
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 16
The internal measurements of a box with lid are 115 cm × 75 cm × 35 cm and the wood of which it is made is 2.5 cm thick. Find the volume of the wood used to make the box.
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 16
Volume of wood used to make the box = Total volume - Internal volume of box
Now, new dimension = (115 + 5) cm = 120 cm, (35 + 5) cm = 40 cm, and (75 + 5) cm = 80 cm
Wood used = (120 × 80 × 40 - 115 × 75 × 35) cm3
= (3,84,000 - 3,01,875) cm3
= 82,125 cm3
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 17

A shopkeeper marks the price of the article in such a way that after allowing 28% discount, he wants a gain of 12%. If the marked price is Rs. 224, then the cost price of the article is:

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 17

Marked price = 224
Discount = 28%
Selling price = 100 - 28% = 72% of the marked price
= 224 × = Rs. 161.28
Profit = 12%
Cost price = × 100 = Rs. 144
Thus, the cost price should be Rs. 144.

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 18
In what ratio is the segment joining (-1, 3) and (2, -4) divided by the Y-axis?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 18
The line segment joining the two points A(-1, 3) and B(2, -4) cuts the Y-axis at P.
Since P lies on the y-axis, its coordinates can be taken as (0, b).
Let P divide AB in the ratio k : 1.
Then, applying section formula,

⇒ 2k - 1 = 0
⇒ 2k = 1
⇒ k = 1/2
The required ratio is 1 : 2.
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 19

While selling an article of marked price Rs. 5040 at a discount of 40%, if a trader gains 20%, then the profit is:

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 19

Marked price = Rs. 5040
Discount = 40%
Selling price = Rs. 5040 x (10/100) = 3024
Gain = 20%
So, 120% = Rs. 3024
Profit (20%) = Rs. (3024/120) x 20 = Rs. 504
Hence, answer option 2 is correct.

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 20

Ten men or twelve women can finish the same work in 10 days. If 5 men and 2 women undertake the work together, how many days will they take to complete the work?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 20

Total work = time × (men + women)
Ten men or twelve women can finish the same work in 10 days so,
10m × 10 = 12w × 10
5m = 6w
Let time taken to compete same work by 5 men and 2 women be d days.
Total work done by 5 men and 2 women = (5m + 2w) × d
12w x 10 = (6w + 2w) x d
d = 120/8 = 15
∴ They will complete the same work in 15 days.
Hence, answer option 1 is correct.

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 21

If 12cot2θ - 31cosecθ + 32 = 0, 0° < θ < 90°, then the values of tanθ will be:

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 21

12cot2θ - 31cosecθ + 32 = 0
12(cosec2θ - 1) - 31cosecθ + 32 = 0
12cosec2θ - 31cosecθ + 20 = 0
(4cosecθ - 5)(3cosecθ - 4) = 0
cosecθ = 5/4 and  4/3
We see that when cosecθ = 5/4, then

When cosecθ = 4/3, then 

⇒ 3√7 =3√7/7
Therefore, tanθ = 4/3 and 3√7/7

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 22

If sin5θ = cos(50° - 3θ), then θ is equal to:

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 6 - Question 22

sin 5θ = cos (50° - 3θ)

Therefore, 5θ + 50° - 3θ = 90°

→ 2θ + 50° = 90°
→ 2θ = 40°
→ θ = 20°

So, this is the correct answer.
