   75
   81
   60
   Option B
   2(4/9) × 6(6/7) × 5(1/4) = ?
   = 22/9 × 48/7 × 21/4
   = 88

   Option A
   675/27 + 112 × 1.5 – 35% of 420 = ?
   = 25 + 168 – 147
   = 46

Directions(6-10): Following graph shows the percentage profit gained by two companies A and B over the years 2008 to 2013.
%Profit = [Profit/Expenditure]*100


6. If the income of Company B in year 2009 was Rs. 91.8 lakh, what was its expenditure (in Rs) in that year?
   70
   68
   60
   62
   74
   Option B
   % profit = 35% Expenditure = Income × 100/(100+ %P)
   => 91.8 * 100/135
   = Rs. 68 lakh

    

7. In which of the following years is the percentage of expenditure with respect to income is 80% for Company A?
   2011
   2010
   2009
   2008
   2012
   Option D
   Let the expenditure be x. Income = x*(100+25)/100
   = 1.25x
   Required % = (x /1.25x)*100 = 100/1.25 = 80%

    

8. If the expenditure of Company A in the year 2011 and 2012 was in the ratio 6 : 5, what was the ratio of its incomes?
   9:10
   11:15
   15:17
   13:10
   21:23
   Option D
   E1/E2 = 6/5
   E1 = 6
   E2 = 5
   Now, I1 = E1*(100+30)/100
   = E1 *1.3 I2 = E2 * 1.2 I1/I2
   = E1/E2*1.3/1.2 = (6*1.3)/(5*1.2) = 78/60 I1/I2 = 13/10

    

9. The income of Company A in the year 2012 and the expenditure of Company B in the year 2009 was the same, that is Rs 90 lakh. What will be the ratio of the income of Company B in 2009 to the expenditure of Company A in the year 2012?
   3:1
   4:7
   3:2
   7:11
   9:5
   Option E
   % Profit(A) = 20%
   Expenditure(A) = I/1.2 = 90/1.2 = 75 lakhs
   % Profit(B) = 35%
   Income(B) = 90 × 1.35 = 135 lakhs
   Ratio = 135/75 = 9:5
