Q7 In an office there are n employees and their average age is 36
years. After two years, 5 employees whose average age is 40 years,
leave the office and next after three years, 5 employees whose
average age is 30 years, joined the office. Now the average age of the
employees of the office becomes 39.7 years. Find the number of
employees in the office initially.
after two years average will become 38 then the total age of all employees =38n
5 people of age 40 leave then total age=38n-40*5 =38n-200
after 3 more years so then total age=(38n-200) +(n-5)3 [n-5 is because five
employee have already left ]
then comes 5 people of age 30 then total age become =(38n-200) +(n-5)3 +30*5
now total people are still n and the average now is 39.7
{(38n-200) +(n-5)3 +150}/n =39.7
41n -200 +150-15 =39.7
1.3n=65
n=50

Q3 A bus travels at a speed of n km/hr if it does not carry any passenger. Its
speed decreases by a quantity directly proportional to the square of the
number of passengers. If the bus carries 10 passengers, its speed is 45 km/hr. If
it carries 15 passengers its speed is 7.5 km/hr. What will be its approximate
speed (in km/hr) if it carries 12 passengers?
The correct answer is option 2.
The speed of the bus is given by expression n – k(p) , where n is the speed of the bus ,
2

p is the number of passengers .

if p = 10 , n – 100k = 45 …. (1)
if p = 15 , n – 225k = 7.5 …. (2)
from (1) and (2)
n = 75km/hr , k = 0.3
Speed of the bus when p = 12
75 – 0.3 (12) 2 = 31.8
approx 32 km/hr.

of tank Q. After how many hours from the start, will the quantity of water in tank P will
be 25% more than the quantity of water in tank Q?
SIMPLE&COMPOUND INTEREST

Q2 Himanshu invested one half of his savings in policy A for 2 years and received
Rs 2200 as a simple interest. He invested the remaining savings in policy B for
same number of years at same rate of interest and received Rs 2420 as a
compound interest. If his total savings before investing is 40% of his expenditure
before investing, then what was his expenditure before investing (in rs)?

The correct answer is 27500.

Let the principal for policy B = P
First year CI = 1100
Second year CI = 1100 + 220
Therefore,
R% of 1100 = 220
R = 20%
20% of P = 1100
P = 5500
Thus, total saving = 5500 + 5500= 11000

percentage made by the shopkeeper?
Q5 Radhelal is a shop-owner who sells sugar to his customers. He sells sugar in packets
of 1 kg each. Two customers P and Q asked him for 2 kg sugar. He removed some sugar
form one of the packets and gave this packet along with a new 1 kg packet of sugar to P.
He further gave a discount of 15% to P. To the second customer i.e. Q, he gave two new
1 kg packets (without removing any quantity of sugar) without any discount. His net
profit was the same in both the cases. What was the cost price of the sugar he removed
from the packet given to P?
The correct answer is option 3.
Let us assume, he reduced x kg sugar from a packet.
Let CP for a packet of sugar be y
Let MRP of a packet of sugar be m
Total sugar given to P: (2-x) kg
Total sugar given to Q: 2 kg
Total SP towards Q: 2m
Total SP towards P: 2m -15% of 2m= 1.7m
Total CP towards Q: 2y
Total CP towards P: (2-x)y
Total profit is same in both cases.
2m-2y=1.7m-(2-x)y
2m=1.7m+xy
xy=0.3 m
CP of sugar removed: xy =0.3m = 30% MRP of a Packet

Algebra
Q1 Sum of first 20 terms of an arithmetic sequence is 100. If first term is 10,
then find the ratio of sum of all even numbered terms to that of total terms.

Given that a + a + a + … + a + a + a = 100

1 2 3 18 19 20

Also we know that pair-wise sum of terms in AP is same, so a + a = a + a = … = 1 20 2 19

100/10 = 10.
Also it is given that a = 10, so a = 0.
1 20

That means except 20 term, all other 19 terms also follow same pair-wise sum pattern,
th

i.e. a + a = a + a = a + a = a + a = a + a = a + a = a + a = a + a = a + a =
1 19 2 18 3 17 4 16 5 15 6 14 7 13 8 12 9 11

2a 10

Thus if we take a = x, then (a + a ) + (a + a ) + (a + a ) + (a + a ) + a + a = 9x

10 2 18 4 16 6 14 8 12 10 20

And same way sum of all terms becomes = 19x.

Hence the required ratio is = 9x : 19x = 9 : 19.
