Answers With Explanation

1. Ans. C

Solution:

2. Ans. A.

Solution:

=-100+25=75% decrease

3. Ans. B.

Solution:
In 80 liter mixture, Milk=64 liter, Water=16 Liter
Let milkmen sold X liter mixture, then


5(64-x×80%) = 12(16-x×20%+8)
5×64 - x×80%×5 = 12×16 - x×20%×12+12×8
320 – x ×400% = 192 - x×240% + 96
320-192-96 = x×400% - x×240%
32 = x×160%
x = 20 Liter

4. Ans. C.

Solution:
Let Aman's annual salary = X, Bablu's annual salary = Y, Chintu's Annual salary = Z
X×40% = Y×15%
Y= X×40/15
X/12×3 = Z/12×2
Z= 6/4×X
X : Y : Z = X : X×40/15 : 6/4×X
= 6:16:9

5. Ans. D.

Solution:
Total votes = x
Invalid votes = x×5%
Valid votes = x×95%
A's votes = x×95%×38%
B's votes = x×95%×20%
C's votes = x×95%×42%
x×95%×42% - x×95%×38% = 2850
x×95%×4% = 2850
x= 75000 votes
