37. (4) The travelling time of the man = 135/45 = 3
hrs Number of times the man will stop is equal to
the quotient when 135 is divided by 12 which is
11 times. Stoppage time of the man = 11 10 =
110 min = 1 hr 50 mins
Total time = 3 hrs. + 1 hrs. 50 mins. = 4 hrs. 50
mins.
38. (4) Let the ages of A, B and C are 6a, 8a and 10a.
6a + 8a + 10a
Average age =
= 8a

8a = 28
a = 3.5
Sum of the ages of A and B together after 5
years = 6a + 5 + 8a + 5 =14a + 10 =59 years
39. (1) Let Pinkus share = a
Minkus share = 0.75a
Rinkus share = 1.25 0.75a =0.9375a
a + 0.75a + 0.9375a = 2.6875a =2193

454 + 18 = 472
472 27 = 445
445 + 18 = 463
463 27 = 436
436 + 18 = 454
42. (2) The pattern of the number series is as given
below:
12 4 30 = 48 30 = 18
18 4 36 = 72 36 = 36
36 4 42 = 144 42 = 102

43. (1): Let the cistern be emptied at x p.m.

According to the question
(x -3)/3 + (x 4)/4 = (x 5)/1
=> ( 4x 12 + 3x 12)/12 = x 5/1
=> 7x 24 = 12x 60
=> 5x = 36
Thus, x = 36/5
= 7 hr. + 12 min.
= 7.12 p.m.
44. (3): Required no. of men = (250 * 5 * 20)/(8 * 10)
=312.5 313
45. (4): Let the number of officers be x.
5000*500 = 14000x + 4000(500-x)
2500000 =14000x + 2000000 4000x
x = 500000/10000 = 50
46. (4) Let the salary be Rs. 100. So, after first
increase is Rs. 10. Now, his salary is Rs. 110.
Second increase is Rs. 22. Now the salary is Rs.
132. The third increase is Rs.33.
So, for initial salary of Rs. 100, the third increase
is Rs. 33.
Therefore, for an increase of Rs. 6600, the initial
salary will be Rs. 20000. So, the second increase
is Rs. 4400.
47. (3)
CP= (996+894)/2= Rs 945
48. (1)
(11x/100)=5236
=>x=Rs 47600(Monthly income)
total monthly amount invested by Deepti =
47600(11+19+7)%
=47600(37/100)=Rs 17,612
total annual amount invested by Deepti =
1761212= Rs 2,11,344
49. (3)
Since, 18 SP = 24 CP. Therefore, SP = 1.33 CP or
profit% = 33.33%. So, if initial CP = Rs. 100, then
initially, he is selling the articles at Rs. 133.33.
Now, in new case, 24 SP = 36 CP, then SP = 1.5
CP or new profit% = 50%. So, new SP will be Rs.
150. Therefore, increase in SP will be
150 133.33
16.66
100 =
100 = 12.5%
133.33
133.33
50. (3) Let the initial price of rice/ kg = Rs. X
Total = x * Rs. 49
According to the question = Now he can buy = y
kg.
Then => x * 49 = (98 x /100) *y
Y = 50 kg

D = P( r/100)2
129.60 = P ( 9 /100)2
P = ( 129.60 x 100 x 100)/ 9 x 9
P = 16000

56. (2) In the year (1998-99) the trade balance
was unfavotirable as.
(Export - Import) = - ve
57. (2) Clearly, the share of manufactured goods is
77. 8%.
Hence, its contribution in export is maximum.
58. (1) Capital goods and other Bulk items
contribute 52.5% in import.
59. (3) Export - Import = (41857.9 - 33658.5) =
8199.4 million
60. (1) % of Agriculture and allied products =
17.3% = 33658.5 x 17.3% = 5822 million =
5700 million
61. (1) Expenditure on fuel imports = 41857.9 x
17.6% = $7366.99
Contribution due to crude and Petroleum
products export = 0.3% x 33658.5 = $100.97
