Question 1: In a hostel of 50 girls there are food provisions for 40 days. If 30 more girls join the hostel, the food provisions will last for:
A) 35 days
B) 30 days
C) 25 days
D) 20 days
Answer: C) 25 days
Explanation:
50 girls can eat for 40 days
1 girls can eat for 50 * 40 = 2000 days
If 30 more girls join, so number of girls = 50 + 30 = 80
Number of days the food will last = 2000 / 80 = 25 days
Hence, option C is correct answer
Question 2: The book "Indomitable Spirit" is written by:

Question 3: A man bought article and sold it at a gain of 10%. If he had bought it at 20% less and sold it for Rs. 10 more, he would have made an profit of 40%. The cost price of the article is:
B) 480
C) 450
D) 400
Answer: A) 500
Explanation:
Let us suppose that the cost price of article = 100x, Then the selling price = 110x
if he had bought it at 20% less means 100x - 20x = 80x and sold it for Rs. 10 more, he would have made an profit of 40%\
100% + 40% = 140%
140% of 80x = 110x + 10
(140*80x)/100 = 110x + 10
112x = 110x + 10
112x - 110x = 10
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5
Cost price of the article = 100 * 5 = 500
Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
Question 4: At what rate percent per annum compound interest, will Rs. 10,000 amount to Rs. 13,310 in three years?
A) 8%
B) 10%
C) 12%
D) 15%
Answer: B) 10%
Explanation:
We know the compound interest formula,
A = P(1 + r /100)^t
A = final amount
P = initial principal balance
r = interest rate
t = number of time periods elapsed
A = Rs. 13,310
P = Rs. 10,000
r = ?
t = 3
Substituting the values in the formula,
13310 = 10000(1 + r/100)^3
13310 / 10000 = (1 + r/100)^3
1.331 = (1 + r/100)^3
Taking cube roots both side,
sqrt[3]{1.331}= sqrt[3]{(1+ r /100)^3}
1.1 = 1 + r/100
r/100 = 1.1 - 1
r/100 = 0.1
r = 0.1 X 100
r = 10
Therefore, Rate of Interest is 10%.
Hence, option B is correct answer.

Question 6: What is the least number which must be added to 306452 to make it a perfect square?
A) 460
B) 462
C) 464
D) 466
Answer: C) 464
Explanation:
We shall now find out the least number which should be added to the given number to obtain a perfect square . For this we apply the method of finding square root of 306452 by the division method.
We observe that
553² < 306452 < 554²
Now, 554² = 306916
Hence, the required least number which should be added to 306452 to obtain a perfect square is 306916 - 306452 = 464.

Question 17: A nursery has 5000 plants. 5% of the plants are roses and 1% is marigold. What is the total number of other plants?
A) 4750
B) 4700
C) 4250
D) 4200
Answer: B) 4700
Explanation:
A nursery has 5000 plants.
5% plants are roses then assume 5% of 5000 is x
x / 5000 = 5/100
x = 5 X 5000 / 100
x = 5 X 50
x = 250
Therefore, 250 plants are roses.
1% plants are marigold then assume 1% of 5000 is y
y / 5000 = 1/100
y = 1 X 5000 / 100
y = 1 X 50
y = 50
Therefore, 50 plants are marigold.
Total number of other plants = 5000 - (250 + 50) = 5000 - 300 = 4700
Hence, option B is correct answer.

A) Rs. 1344
B) Rs. 1434
C) Rs. 1500
D) Rs. 1600
Answer: D) Rs. 1600
Explanation:
Cost Price = Rs. 1200.
To gain 12%, gain price = (12 * 1200) / 100 = 144.
Selling Price = 1200 + 144 = Rs. 1344
so as to gain 12% after allowing a discount of 16%.
discount price = (16 * 1344) / 100 = Rs. 215.04
Therefore, selling price of shoes = 1200 + 144 + 215.04
= 1559.04
= Rs. 1600

14 + 3^2 + 2 = 14 + 9 + 2 = 25
25 + 3^3 + 3 = 25 + 27 + 3 = 55
55 + 3^4 + 4 = 55 + 81 + 4 = 140

Question 93: A train 270 m long is moving at a speed of 25 kmph. It will cross a man coming from the opposite direction at a speed of 2 kmph in:
A) 24 sec
B) 30 sec
C) 36 sec
D) None of the above
Answer: C) 36 sec
Explanation:
The relative speed of the train will be the sum of the speeds of the train and the man.
We will add them because they are moving in the opposite direction.
The relative speed of the train is 25+2 = 27km/h.
We will convert this to m/sec because the distance is in metres.
27×1000/3600 = 15/2 m/sec.
Time is equal to distance upon speed.
Time = 270 ÷ (15/2).
Time = 270 × 2/15.
Time = 36 seconds.
The train will take 36 seconds to cross the man.
Therefore, option C is correct answer.

A) 400
B) 450
C) 500
D) 800
Answer: C) 500
Explanation: Pass percentage = 40%
He gets 185 marks. He required 15 marks more to pass.
Therefore, passing marks / obtained mark = 185 + 15 = 200 marks
Assume total mark is x.
obtained mark / Total mark = 40 / 100
200 / x = 40 / 100
x = (100 X 200) / 40
x = 20000 / 40
x = 500
Hence, Total mark = 500
Therefore, option C is correct answer.
