Direction (1-5): Refer to the graphs and answer the following questions.
The first bar graph shows the marked up price of articles with respect to their cost price and the second bar graph shows the discount % given in respective articles.
- If the cost price of Q is decreased by 10% (other prices remaining same), then what is the different between the new profit% and original one?
A) 15%
B) 10%
C) 12%
D) 9%
E) Cannot be determined
View Answer
 Option C
Explanation:
Using MP = (100+p%)/(100-d%) * CP
For article Q:
180% of CP = (100+p%)/(100-40) * CP
CP gets cancelled out, so p% = 8%
Now new CP = 90% of CP
So using MP = (100+p%)/(100-d%) * CP
180% of CP = (100+p%)/(100-40) * 90% of CP
New p% = 20%
So difference = 20 – 8 = 12%
- Cost price of P is 10% more than the cost price of R. If selling price of R is Rs 320, find the selling price of P.
A) Rs 548.5
B) Rs 577.5
C) Rs 532.5
D) Rs 553.5
E) Cannot be determined
View Answer
 Option B
Explanation:
Let CP of R = Rs x
For R:
Using MP = (100+p%)/(100-d%) * CP
160% of CP = (100+p%)/(100-60) * CP
p = -36, means there is a loss of 36%
Now SP of R = Rs 320
So CP of R = 100/64 * 320 = Rs 500
So CP of P = 110% of 500 = Rs 550
For P: using MP = (100+p%)/(100-d%) * CP
150% of CP = (100+p%)/(100-30) * CP
p = 5%
So SP of P = 105% of 550 = Rs 577.5
- If the cost price of Q and S is same, then selling price of S is how much % less than the selling price of Q?
A) 79%
B) 63%
C) 82%
D) 67%
E) Cannot be determined
View Answer
 Option B
Explanation:
Let CP of Q = CP of S = Rs 100
p% of Q = 8% [from Question 1]
So SP of Q = 108% of 100 = Rs 108
For S: using MP = (100+p%)/(100-d%) * CP
200% of CP = (100+p%)/(100-80) * CP
p = -60%, so there is a loss of 60%
So SP of S = 40% of 100 = Rs 40
Now SP of Q = Rs 108 Â and SP of S = Rs 40
Required % = (108-40)/108 * 100 = 63%
- If the selling price of T is increased by 20%, then what would be the discount%?
A) 50%
B) 58%
C) 45%
D) 40%
E) 52%
View Answer
 Option D
Explanation:
 For T:
using MP = (100+p%)/(100-d%) * CP
150% of CP = (100+p%)/(100-50) * CP
p = -25, so loss of 25%
Let CP = Rs 100, so SP = Rs 75
Now SP is increased by 20%, so new SP = 120% of 75 = Rs 90
and MP = 150% of 100 = Rs 150
So discount % = (150-90)/150 * 100 = 40%Â
- If the marked price of S is increased by 10% (keeping other prices same) which is same as the cost price of T, then what is the cost price of S given that selling price of T is Rs 660?
A) Rs 400
B) Rs 500
C) Rs 440
D) Rs 550
E) Rs 360
View Answer
 Option A
Explanation:
For S:
Let CP of S = Rs x
So MP = 200% of x = Rs 2x
Increased MP = 110% of 2x = Rs 22x/10
For T:
So CP of T = Rs 22x/10
and from above question, loss is 25%
So SP of T = 75% of  22x/10
So 75% of 22x/10 = 660, solving x = Rs 400 Â

A) 55
B) 47
C) 50
D) 40
E) 44
View Answer
 Option D
Explanation:
Played by A = 20/0.25 = 80
Played by D = 16/0.40 = 40
So difference = 40
- If all players A, B, C, D, and E are associated with different teams P,Q, R, S, T respectively, then which of the following team won the series?
A) P
B) R
C) T
D) S
E) Cannot be determined
View Answer
 Option E
Explanation:

- Which player has the best strike rate in terms of minutes?
A) A
B) B
C) C
D) D
E) E
View Answer
 Option A
Explanation:
A = 2234/20 = 111.7
B = 2563/18 = 142.4
C = 2434/19 = 128.1
D = 1926/16 = 120.4
E = 2017/17 = 118.6
The lower the strike rate, best it is considered Â
- If the difference in number of shots by two players is 25, then what is the difference in the strike rate of these?
A) 23
B) 24
C) 22
D) 21
E) Cannot be Determined
View Answer
 Option C
Explanation:
Number of shots of
A = 20/0.25 = 80
B = 18/0.24 = 75
C = 19/0.2375 = 80
D = 16/0.32 = 50
E = 17/0.20 = 85
So these two players are B and D
Difference in their strike rates =2563/18 – 1926/16 = 142.4 – 120.4 = 22
- If there are 24 matches left to be played, than what should be the goals/match ratio of B for the rest of games if he wants to overtake A in terms of number of goals scored?
A) 0.275Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
B) 0.395Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
C) 0.225Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
D) 0.375Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
E) 0.345
View Answer
 Option D
Explanation:
At current rate, A will score = 24*0.25 = 6 goals more in 24 matches, so A’s goals will be 20+6 = 26
So B to overtake A needs 27 total goals thus needs these 9 more goals (18+9 = 27) in 24 matches
So goal : match = 9 : 24 = 0.375Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
tyyy mam

so q1 mai ye 20% kese hua …?
Thank u AZ team 🙂

explain 1st one
I will explain each and every question sis sorry bata nahin paaya was busy
aare koi na bro jab bhi free hona tb bta dena 🙂
mam qno 1 mai 20% profit kaise aya?
if cp=100
10% less 90
MP=90*180/100 so, 162
discount= 162*60/100 so, 97.2
so profit is 7.2*100/90 = 8%
so dono mai 8% araha
Profit% calculate karne k liye 7.2 ku liya ??
Profit is based on CP and SP
But u have used discount here
