Rs. 6,000
Rs. 12,000
Rs. 9,000
Cannot be determined
Solution:
House hold expenditure = 50%
Remaining = 50%
On Remaining amount he spends:-
Travelling = 25%
Entertainment = 30%
Shopping = 15%
Total = 70% ⇒ Remaining = (100 – 70) % of 50%
Rest amount ⇒ 900 = 30% of 50%
⇒ 15% = 900
100% = 6,000.
Remaining = 50%
On Remaining amount he spends:-
Travelling = 25%
Entertainment = 30%
Shopping = 15%
Total = 70% ⇒ Remaining = (100 – 70) % of 50%
Rest amount ⇒ 900 = 30% of 50%
⇒ 15% = 900
100% = 6,000.
Q17. In a test consisting of 80 questions carrying one mark each, Ankita answers 65% of the first 40 questions correctly. What percent of the other 40 questions does she need to answer correctly to score 80% on the entire test?
60
80
95
40
Solution:
Total marks of test = 80
Ankita scored = 65% of 40 Question (1 mark) = 26
But she needs to score = 80% of entire ‘test’
= 80% of 80
= 64 marks
So, she needs = (64 – 26) marks
= 38
Percentage ⇒ x% of 40 = 38
⇒ x = 95
Ankita scored = 65% of 40 Question (1 mark) = 26
But she needs to score = 80% of entire ‘test’
= 80% of 80
= 64 marks
So, she needs = (64 – 26) marks
= 38
Percentage ⇒ x% of 40 = 38
⇒ x = 95
Q18. In a class of 60 students and 5 teachers, each student got sweets that are 20% of the total number of students and each teacher got sweets that are 30% of the total number of students. How many sweets were there?
845
897
810
104
Solution:
No. of students = 60
No. of teachers = 5
No. of sweets each students got = 20% of (60) = 12
Total sweets distributed among students
= 12 × 60 =720
No. of sweets each teacher got = 30% of (60)
= 18
Total sweets = 18 × 5 = 90
distributed among teachers
Total sweets = (720 + 90) = 810
No. of teachers = 5
No. of sweets each students got = 20% of (60) = 12
Total sweets distributed among students
= 12 × 60 =720
No. of sweets each teacher got = 30% of (60)
= 18
Total sweets = 18 × 5 = 90
distributed among teachers
Total sweets = (720 + 90) = 810
Q19. In a college election fought between two candidates, one candidate got 55% of the total valid votes. 15% of the votes were invalid. If the total votes were 15,200, what is the number of valid votes the other candidate got?
7106
6840
8360
5814
Solution:
Let total votes = 100%
Invalid = 15%
Valid votes = 85%
1st candidate = 55% of 85%
So, 2nd candidate = 45% of 85%
According to the question,
100% → 15200
85% → 12920
Other candidate got = 45% of 12920
= 5814 vote
Invalid = 15%
Valid votes = 85%
1st candidate = 55% of 85%
So, 2nd candidate = 45% of 85%
According to the question,
100% → 15200
85% → 12920
Other candidate got = 45% of 12920
= 5814 vote
Q20. 65% of a number is more than its 25% by 120. What is 20% of that number?
66
69
48
60
Solution:
According to the question,
65% – 25% = 120
40% = 120
1% = 3
100% = 300
20% = 60
65% – 25% = 120
40% = 120
1% = 3
100% = 300
20% = 60
