Common explanations: (1 to 5)
Let the quantity of wheat sold by all the farmers together in March be ‘x’ quintals

Then, quantity of wheat sold by farmer B in March = 0.25x quintals

And, quantity of wheat sold by farmer B in April = 1.2 × 0.25x = 0.3x quintals

So, 0.3x – 0.25x = 125

0.05x = 125 ; x = 2500 quintals

Total quantity of wheat produced Quantity of wheat sold in Quantity of wheat sold in
in March and April together March April
Farmer A 1700 quintal 30% of 2500 =750 quintal 1.12 × 750 = 840 quintal
Farmer B 1500 quintal 25% of 2500 = 625 quintal 1.2 × 625 = 750 quintal
Farmer C 1100 quintal 15% of 2500 = 375 quintal 1.4 × 375 = 525 quintal
Farmer D 1200 quintal 18% of 2500 = 450 quintal 1.16 × 450 = 522 quintal
Farmer E 900 quintal 12% of 2500 = 300 quintal 1.24 × 300 = 372 quintal

1. Following the common explanation, we get

Required ratio = 840 : 750 = 28 : 25

Hence, option B is correct.

2. Following the common explanation, we get

Unsold quantity of wheat of farmer D in March and April together = 1200 – (450 + 522) = 228 quintals

Unsold quantity of wheat of farmer E in March and April together = 900 – (300 + 372) = 228 quintals

Required difference = 228 – 228 = 0

Hence, option E is correct.

3. Following the common explanation, we get

525 – 300
Reqd. % = × 100 = 75%
300

Hence, option A is correct.

4. Following the common explanation, we get

Revenue generated by farmer A in March = 750 × 120 = Rs. 90,000

Revenue generated by farmer A in April = 840 × 160 = Rs.1,34,400

Required difference = Rs. (1,34,400 – 90,000) = Rs. 44,400

Hence, option D is correct.

5. Following the common explanation, we get

Total quantity of wheat sold in March and April together = 2500 + 840 + 750 + 525 + 522 + 372 = 5509
quintals

Total quantity of wheat produced in March and April together = 1700 + 1500 + 1100 + 1200 + 900 =
6400 quintals

Required unsold quantity of wheat = 6400 – 5509 = 891 quintals

Hence, option C is correct.

6. Total score of first three friends = 15 × 3 = 45

and

total score of last three friends = 16 × 3 = 48

⇒ Total score of four friends = 45 + 19 = 64

⇒ Score of first friend = 64 – 48 = 16

16 1
So, required percentage = × 100% = 33 %
48 3

Hence, option D is correct.

Hence, option C is correct.

36. Clearly, last year’s ratio is irrelevant if we want to find this year’s ratio.

∴ Statement II doesn’t give any relevant information to compute the answer.

Considering statement I;

Total no. of employees = 45000

Number of males = 45% of 45000 = 0.45 × 45000 = 20250

⇒ Number of females = 45000 – 20250 = 24750

∴ Ratio = 24750 ∶ 20250 = 11 ∶ 9

∴ Statement I is alone sufficient to answer the question.
Hence, option A is correct.
37. Statement I :

distance 290
⇒ Speed = = = 58 km/hr
time 5

Statement II :
distance 580

∴ Either of the statements is enough to find the answer the question.

Hence, option C is correct.

38. In the statement I area of incircle is given so in radius will become 4 cm

We know that in radius

opposite + adjacent – hypotenuse
=
2

So, o + a – h = 8 cm

And from the question, o + a + h = 30 cm

By adding both the equation we will get, o + a = 19 cm.........(i)

so h will become 30 – 19 = 11 cm

we know that h2 = o2 + a2 = 121 ...........(ii)

square the equation (i) and put the value of o2 + a2 from the equation (ii)

we will get 2 × o × a = 240 , so o × a = 120

1 120
we know that area = × o × a = = 60 cm2
2 2

From the statement II, we know that the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle = 2 × circumradius = 2 ×
5.5 = 11 cm now in the same way as we solved for the statement I we can get the area of the triangle.

Hence, option C is correct.
