Quantitative Aptitude
1. Solution: (a), Sachin reached the spot at 10:30 hrs
Laxman was there before 20 mins his arrival time would be 10:10 hrs
But Rahul was late by 15 mins to Laxman
So, Rahul’s arrival time is 10:25 hrs.
Rahul is late by half an hour to scheduled time the meeting time
⇒ 10:25 – 30 mins = 9:55 hrs

2. Solution: (b),
Let the list price be Rs x
∴ C.P = Rs (x - 10% of x)
= Rs 0.9x
S.P = Rs ( x + 20% of x )
= Rs 1.2x
∴ Profit% = [(1.2x – 0.9)/0.9x]x 100
1
= 33 %
3
3. Solution: (b),
21% of x = 54
X = 54 x 100 / 21
35% of x = (35 x 54 x 100) / (21 x 100) = 90

4. Solution: (c),
x-1/x = 3
1
(x-1/x)2= 32 ⇒ x2+ 2
= 9+2 ⇒ x2+1/x2 = 11
x
⇒ (x2+1/x2)2= 112 ⇒ x4+1/x4 = 121-2=119

5. Solution: (a),
X3+y3+ z3-3xyz=(x+y+z)(x2+y2+z2–xy–yz-zx)
=(x+y+z)((x+y+z)2-3xy-3yz-3zx)
= 11(112 – 3(32))
= 11(121 – 96) = 275
6. Solution: (c),
2x/(x-4) + (2x – 5)/(x – 3) = 25/3
13x2 – 118x + 240 = 0
A = 13, b = -118, c = 240

-b ± b - 4ac
Using the formula we get,

7. Solution: (a),
Vol. of spirit = 32x6/8 = 24 litres
Volume of water = 32 – 26 = 8 litres
In the new mixture amount of water = 8+4 =12
∴ The ratio of spirit to water is 24 litres : 12
=2: 1

8. Solution: (d),
2 2
BC = (12 + 5 ) = 169 = 13

13 = AB + AC = 2AB2
2 2 2

AB = 13/ 2

9. Solution: (c),
M = 45
Also M+4+S+4 = 68
⇒ M+S = 55
Or 4S + S = 55 (using M = 4S)
5S = 55
S = 11 years

10. Solution: (b),

The answer is b.

11. Solution: (c),

In an A.P nth term , tn = a+(n-1)d
∴ 7th term ⇒ a + 6d = 17
∴ 18th term ⇒ a + 17d = 39
Solving the two equation, we get a = 5 and d=2
Now, 15th term, tn = 5 + 14(2) = 33

12. Solution: (b),

Radius = 21 cm
Circumference of the circle = 2π r
= 2 x 22/7 x 2 = 132 cm
Circumference of the circle = Perimeter of the square = 132 cm = 4a
⇒ a = 33 cm
Area of circle: Area of the square
= π r : a2
2
= 22/7 x 21 : 33 x 33
= 66 x 21 : 33 x 33
= 14 : 11

Probability of getting an odd no.

= 3/6 = 1/2
Probability of ‘failure’ =½
∴ Probability of 6 successes
= 8c6(1/2)6(1/2)1
= 7/32

14. Solution: (a),

Diameter of circle = Diagonal of square
∴ 2 a = 20 ⇒ a = 20 2 = 10 2 cm

15. Solution: (a),

Relative speed = (30-12) = 18 kmph
= 18x5/18 = 5 m/sec
Let x meter be the length of second train
The (100+x)/5 = 90
(100+x)/5 = 90
100+x = 90*5
= 450
∴ x = 350m

16. Solution: (b),

Area of regular hexagon = 3a2 3 / 2
= 3(6) 3 / 2
= 54 3
= 93.33 cm2

17. Solution: (b),

Let S.P be Rs x
C.P paid by hema = Rs 7/10x
S.P received by hema= 105% of x
Gain = Rs (21/20x – 7/10x) = Rs 7/20x
Gain% = 7x/20 x 10/7x x 100
= 50% gain

18. Solution: (a),

Let the distance between Hyd. To Vijayavada be x km
Avg. speed of 1 train = x/4 km/hr
Avg. speed of II train = 2x7 km/hr
Let us suppose they meet y hrs after 8 am then
Xy + 2x(y-z) = x
4 7
15y = 44 or y = 44/15 = 2 hrs 56 min
So the train meet at 10 : 56 am

Let length, breadth and height of the cuboid be x, 2x and 3x res.

Volume V1 = 6x3
After inceasing the l, b and h becomes 1.5x, 4x and 7.5x resp.
New volume V2 = 45x3
Increase in volume = 45x3 – 6x3 = 93x3
= 6.5 x V1
Hence increase is about 6.5 times

20. Solution: (a),

2
Area of equilateral triangle = 3/4 a
Where ‘a’ is the side
Hence a2 = 64
⇒ a = 8 units
Altitude of equilateral triangle = 3 / 4 a
= 3 / 4 8 = 4 3 units

21. Solution: (d),

Length of the carpet = 700/3.5 = 200m
Breadth of the carpet = 2.5 m
Area of the carpet = 200 x 2.5
= 500 sq.m
Length of the floor = 20 m
Hence Breadth of the floor = 500/20 = 25 m

22. Solution: (c),

Let Ravi get Rs 100
Then Sridhar gets Rs 100 + 10% = Rs 110
Shekhar gets Rs 110 + 25% = Rs 110 + 27
= Rs 137

Ravi’s share in Rs 867.5 = 100 x 867.5 /347

= Rs 250

23. Solution: (c),

N0. Of ways of drawing 2 cards out of 52
= 52C2 = 52 x 51 = 1326
2 x 1
No. of ways of drawing 2 cards out of 4
= 4C2 = (4 x 3)/2 = 6
∴ Required probability = 6/1326 = 1/221

24. Solution: (a),

S.P = Rs 220
Loss – 12%
∴ C.P = 100/88 x 220 = Rs 250
Gain required = 16%
∴ S.P = 116/100 x 250
= 58 x 5 = 290 Rs

25. Solution: (d),

Substitution x = 5 in (x+3x)(2x-3) = 2 & find w then proceed by substituting the nos.
choices
When x = 5
(5 + 3w)(2.5-3) = 2
(5 + 3w)7 = 2
5 + 3w = 14 ⇒ 3w = 9 ⇒ w = 3
X = 10
(10+9)/17 = 19/17
x=5
(8+9)/13 = 17/13
X=3
(3+9)(6-3) = 12/3 = 4
X=6
(6+9)(12-3) = 15/9 = 5/3
Hence when x = 6 the fraction will be equal to 5/3
