1).Let the length of the park be x metres.
Width = x × 10 / 21 = 10x / 21
Area = x × 10x / 21 = 3360
or, x^2 = 3360 × 21 / 10 = 7056
or, x = 84
Hence, length = x = 84m and width = 84 × 10 / 21 = 40 metres
Difference = 84 – 40 = 44 metres
Answer: b)
2).Let my age = x
My brother's age = x + 3
My mother's age = x + 26
My sister's age = (x + 3) + 4 = x + 7
My Father's age = (x + 7) + 28 = x + 35
=> age my father when my brother was born = x + 35 – (x + 3) = 32.
Answer: d)
3).Cost price of the watch
= 5080 + 4650 / 2
= 9730 / 2
Answer: e)
4).Suppose B invested Rs. x for y months. Then,
A invested Rs.3x for 2y months.
So, A : B = (3x × 2y) : (x × y) = 6xy : xy = 6 : 1
So, B’s profit : total profit = 1 : 7
Let the total profit be Rs. x. Then, 1 / 7 = 40000 / x
Or x = 28000.
Answer: d)
5).(A+B+C) - (A+B)
(A+B+C) =1/6 and (A+B+C) in 2hrs=2/6 and remaining part 1-2/6=2/3.
So (A+B) in 7 hrs is 2/ (3*7) =2/21.
1/6-2/21=1/14
so answer is 14.
Answer: b)
6).Average number of applicants for SBI = 1.5 + 2.5 + 3 + 2.5 + 3.5 + 5/6
= 18 /6 = 3 lakh
Average number of applicants for IBPS = 2.5 + 3.5 + 4.5 + 4 + 5.5 + 7/6 = 27/6 = 4.5 lakh
Required % = 3 / 4.5 × 100 = 66 2/3 %

= 4 × 22.75 × 1000 = 91000
Number of female applicants for IBPS in 2011 = 27000 × 7= 189000
