Option C
Let speed of boat = u kmph And speed of flow = v kmph
According to question 18/( u – v) + 30/( u + v) = 6 … . (i)
20/( u – v) + 40/( u + v) = 22/ 3 … (ii)
On solving the equation We get u = 8 kmph, v = 2 kmph
A vessel contains mixture of milk and water in which water concentration is 30%. If 20% water and 30% milk is taken out and replaced with equal quantity of water, then quantity of water increases by what percent of the initial quantity of water in the mixture.

60%

40%

50%

70%

80%

Option D
Required % = [30/100 × 70]/30 × 100 = 21/30 × 100 = 70%
The ratio of income of A, B and C is 3 : 7 : 4 and the ratio of their expenditure is 4 : 3 : 5 respectively. If A saves Rs 300 out of Rs 2400, find the savings of C.

444

525

480

625

Option C
Salary of A = 3x = Rs 2400
Salary of B = 7x = Rs 5600
Salary of C = 4x = Rs 3200
Expenditure of A, B and C = 4y, 3y & 5y respectively.
Saving of A is 300 Expenditure = 4y = (2400 – 300) = 2100
y = 2100/4 = 525
A, B and C can finish a work in 10, 12 and 15 days respectively. They start working together. If B stops after 2 days, how long would it take A and C to finish the remaining work?

Option D
A + B + C in 2 days, do 2 ( 1/10 + 1/ 12 + 1/ 15) = 1/2 work
Now, B withdraws, A + C will do the whole work in (10×15)/( 15+10) = 6 days
It will take 6/2 i.e. 3 more days
The marked price of a radio is Rs 480. The shopkeeper allows a discount of 10% and still gains 8%. If no discount is allowed, find his gain percent.

30%

20%

50%

40%

60%

Option B
M. P. = Rs 480/-
Discount = 10%
S.P. = 90/100 × 480 = Rs. 432
P% = 8% C.P. = 100/108 × 432 = 400
If no discount is given then S.P. = M.P. i.e. S.P. = 480 ?
P% = S. P. −C. P. /C. P. × 100
480 – 400/400 × 100 = 80/400 × 100 = 20%
