Let the number are 4x and 5x respectively. The minimum number of mangoes required is
Now, H.C.F of 4x and 5x= x (highest common the LCM of 12,15 and 30
factor) =60
According to the question, x = 5,
Numbers = 4 × 5 and 5 × 5 10) Answer: E
= 20 and 25 A+B = 120*2 = 240
Now, B+C = 125*2 = 250
L.C.M of 20 and 25 = 100 C+A = 150*2 = 300
Adding 1, 2 and 3 we get

4) Answer: D 7) Answer: A
The sum of the numbers A, B, C, D and E Let the number X = 3x
together = 132 * 5 = 660 3x + 2x + (3x + 9) = 43 * 3
The sum of the numbers A and B together = 8x = 129 – 9
127.5 * 2 = 255 x = 120/8 = 15
The sum of the numbers D and E together = The number Y = 2 * 15 = 30
165 * 2 = 330
The number C = 660 – (255 + 330) = 75 8) Answer: B
The number E = 75 * 2/1 = 150 Let the highest number = x
The number D = 330 – 150 = 180 And the lowest number = y
x + y = 48 * 2
5) Answer: A x – y = 24
The number of students in class X =7X x = (96 + 24)/2 = 120/2 = 60
The number of students in class Y =4X Required value = 602 = 3600
(7X*9/7*13/12)-4X=23
9.75X-4X=23 9) Answer: C
X=23/5.75 Given ratio is 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/7 : 1/6 .
X=4 Converting the fractions into whole numbers by
The number of students in class X=7*4=28 multiplying by the LCM of the denominators of
The number of students in class Y=4*4=16 each fraction
Required average=(28+16)/2=22 LCM of 2, 3, 7, 6 = 42
Ratio becomes,
6) Answer: D 1/2 × 42 : 1/3 × 42 : 1/7 × 42 : 1/6 × 42
x+x+2+x+4+x+6=9*4 Ratio of number of pens received = 21 : 14: 6 :
4x = 36 – 12 7
x = 24/4 = 6 Each ratio is the minimum pens which a person
The highest even number = 6 + 6 = 12 receives.
y+y+2+y+4+y+6+y+8=7*5 Thus the minimum number of pens = 21 + 14 +
5y = 35 – 20 6 + 7= 48
y = 15/5 = 3
The lowest odd number = 3 10) Answer: E
Required sum = 12 + 3 = 15 A+B = 120*2 = 240

1) Answer: A y = (3 * 24 – 16)/2 = 28
Original fraction = x/y Original fraction = 24/28 = 6/7
x + 8/y + 12 = 4/5
4y + 48 = 5x + 40 2) Answer: D
5x – 4y = 8---------(1) The original fraction is,
x – 4/y + 2 = 2/3 = > (x * (450/100))/(y * (250/100)) = 27/50

2) and (x + 4) And the largest number = x + 4
(x + 4)2 – x2 = 184 (x) * (x + 4) = 1020
(x2 + 16 + 8x) – x2 = 184 x2 + 4x – 1020 = 0
x = (184 – 16)/8 = 168/8 = 21 x2 + 34x – 30x – 1020 = 0
