  • Question 1/10
    1 / -0.33

    The circumference of the base of a right circular cylinder is 62.8 cm and its volume is 8792 cm3 . What is the curved surface area ( in cm) of the cylinder? (Take π = 3.14 )

    Solutions

    Given data:

    Circumference of cylinder = 62.8 cm

    Volume of cylinder = 8792 cm3

    Concept used:

    We would use the relationship between the circumference of the cylinder, volume, and radius to find the value of the curved surface area. 

    Formula used:

    C = 2 × π × r

    V = π × r2 × h

    Where "C" is the circumference of the circular base of the cylinder,  "r" is the radius, "V" is the volume of cylinder, and "h" is the Height.

    Calculation:

    From circumference of circular base formula-

    The curved surface area of the cylinder is 1758.4 cm2.

  • Question 2/10
    1 / -0.33

    The lengths of a pair of parallel sides of a trapezium are respectively 18 cm and 15 cm and the perpendicular distance between these two sides is 12 cm. What is the area (in cm2) of the trapezium?

    Solutions

    Given:

    The lengths of a pair of parallel sides of a trapezium = 18 cm and 15 cm

    The perpendicular distance between these two sides = 12 cm

    Formula used:

    Area of trapezium = 1/2 × sum of its parallel sides × perpendicular distance between parallel sides

    Calculation:

    According to the question

    Area of trapezium = 1/2 × sum of its parallel sides × perpendicular distance between parallel sides

    ⇒ 1/2 × (18 + 15) × 12 cm2

    ⇒ (1/2 × 33 × 12) cm2

    ⇒ (33 × 6) cm2

    ⇒ 198 cm2

    ∴ The area of the trapezium is 198 cm2

  • Question 3/10
    1 / -0.33

    The lengths of a pair of parallel sides of a trapezium are respectively 18 cm and 15 cm and the perpendicular distance between these two sides is 12 cm. What is the area (in cm2) of the trapezium?

    Solutions

    Given:

    A person travels from P to Q at a speed of 50 km/h and returns by increasing his speed by 60%.

    Concept used:

    Average speed = 2S1S2/(S+ S2)

    Here S1, S2 are the speed

    Calculation:

    Speed at time of returning = 50 × 160%

    ⇒ 80 km/h

    Average speed = (2 × 50 × 80)/(50 + 80)

    ⇒ 8000/130

    ⇒ 61.53

    ∴ The average speed for both trips is 61.53 km/h.

  • Question 5/10
    1 / -0.33

    A man borrowed Rs. 12000 at compound interest at the rate of 30 percent per annum. If the interest is compounded half yearly, then what will be the amount to be paid after 1 year?

    Solutions

    Given:

    Principal (P) = Rs. 12000, rate = 30% per annum, time = 1 year.

    Compounded half-yearly.

    Concept used:

    When compound interest (C.I.) is compounded half yearly its rate becomes half and time becomes twice.

    Amount (A) = P (1 + r / 100)t

    Solution:

    As C.I. is compounded half yearly rate becomes 15% and time becomes two years.

    Putting P = Rs. 12000, r = 15% and t = 2 years.

    ⇒ A = 12000 (1 + 15 / 100)2

    ⇒ A = 12000 × (23 / 20)2

    ⇒ A = 12000 × (23 / 20) × (23 / 20)

    ⇒ A = 15870.

    ∴ Amount to be paid after 1 year is Rs. 15870.

  • Question 6/10
    1 / -0.33

    The ratio of the number of coins of 25 paise, 50 paise, Rs. 2 and Rs. 5 is 5 ∶ 4 ∶ 3 ∶ 1, respectively. If the total amount of the coins is Rs. 285, then the difference between the number of 25 paise and Rs. 5 coins is:

    Solutions

    Given:

    Ratio of number of coins:

    25 paise:50 paise:Rs. 2:Rs. 5 = 5:4:3:1

    Total amount of coins = Rs. 285 = 28500 paise

    Solution:

    Assume the common ratio to be x.

    The number of 25 paise, 50 paise, Rs. 2, and Rs. 5 coins can be expressed,

    ⇒ 5x, 4x, 3x, and x respectively.

    ⇒ The total value in paise becomes (5x25) for 25 paise coins,

    ⇒ (4x50) for 50 paise coins,

    ⇒ (3x200) for Rs. 2 coins, and

    ⇒ (x500) for Rs. 5 coins.

    Summing up all values, 

    ⇒ 125x + 200x + 600x + 500x = 1425x = Total amount in paise = 28500

    ⇒ x = 28500 / 1425 = 20

    ⇒ 5x = 100 and Rs. 5 coins = x = 20

    The difference between the 25 paise and Rs. 5 coins

    ⇒ 100 - 20 = 80

    ∴ The difference between the number of 25 paise and Rs. 5 coins is 80.

    The ratio of time taken in completing a work by a man and woman is 2 ∶ 3. The man and the woman can complete the work together in 24 days. In how many days can the woman complete the work alone?

    Solutions

    Given:

    The ratio of time taken in completing a work by a man and woman is 2 ∶ 3.

    The man and the woman can complete the work together in 24 days.

    Concepts used:

    Time = Work/Efficiency

    Time is inversely proportional to efficiency.

    Calculation:

    Time Ratio = 2 : 3

    Efficiency Ratio = 3 : 2

    Total work = (3  + 2)24

    Time take by women = (5 × 24)/2 = 60

    ∴ A woman alone can complete the work in 60 days.

  • Question 9/10
    1 / -0.33

    Ratios of metal 1 and 2 in three alloys of equal quantity are 1 : 3, 2 : 3, and 4 : 11 find out the ratio of metal 1 and 2 when all three alloys are mixed.

    Solutions

    Given :

    1) Alloy 1 = metal 1 : metal 2 = 1 : 3

    2) Alloy 2 = metal 1 : metal 2 = 2 : 3

    3) Alloy 3 = metal 1 : metal 2 = 4 : 11

    4) All alloys are in equal quantity

    Calculations :

    Let quantity of each alloy be X

    After mixing all the alloys quantity of metal 1 is mentioned below

    ⇒ ((1/4) + (2/5) + (4/15)) × a

    LCM of 4, 5 and 15 is 60

    Proportion of metal 1 in new mixture = ((1 × 15) + (2 × 12) + (4 × 4) ) / 60

    ⇒ 55 / 60

    Now, after mixing all the alloys quantity of metal 2 is mentioned below

    ⇒ ((3/4) + (3/5) + (11/15)) × a

    LCM of 4, 5 and 15 is 60

    Proportion of metal  in new mixture = ((15 × 3) + (3 × 12) + (11 × 4))/60

    ⇒ 125/60

    Now ratio of metal 1 and metal 2 in new mixture = 55 ∶ 125 = 11 ∶ 25

    ∴ The required ratio is 11 ∶ 25.

  • Question 10/10
    1 / -0.33

    A sum of Rs. 3,900 is divided among P, Q and R such that R receives two-fifths of P's share and Q receives three times of R's share. What is Q's share (in Rs.)?

    Solutions

    Given:

    Sum to divided = Rs. 3900

    R receives two-fifths of P's share and Q receives three times R's share.

    Concept used:

    Ratio Proportion and Partnership

    Calculation:

    Let the share of P is Rs. M.

    Thus, the share of R and Q are Rs. (2M/5) and Rs. (6M/5) respectively.

    Ratio between three of them = M : (2M/5) : (6M/5) = 5 : 2 : 6

    Hence, Q's share = 6/13 × 3900 = 1800

    ∴ Q's share is Rs. 1800.
