Q8. The sum of the ages of father and son is 50 years. Eight years ago, the product of their ages was two time the father’s age at that time, then the present ages (in years) of the father and son respectively are 39,6
35,10
36,9
40,10
42,8
Solution:
F: S = x : (50 - x)
Eight years ago, x - 8 : 42 - x
From question - >(x - 8)(42 - x) = 2(x - 8)
x = 40
So, father’s age = 40, son = 10
Eight years ago, x - 8 : 42 - x
From question - >(x - 8)(42 - x) = 2(x - 8)
x = 40
So, father’s age = 40, son = 10
Q9. An amount of money is to be divided among A, B and C in the ratio of 3 : 5 : 7 respectively. If the amount received by C is Rs. 4,000 more than the amount received by B, what will be the total amount received by A and B together?
Rs. 8000
Rs. 12,000
Rs. 16,000
Can’t be determined
None of these
Solution:
Difference of ratio of B and C = 2 unit
∴ 2 unit = 4000 or 1 unit = Rs. 2000
Now, total amount received by A and B together =8×2000= Rs. 16,000
∴ 2 unit = 4000 or 1 unit = Rs. 2000
Now, total amount received by A and B together =8×2000= Rs. 16,000
Q10. Out of three numbers, the first is twice the second and is half of the third. If the average of the three numbers is 56, what will be the difference between the highest no. and the lowest one?
72
70
80
75
69
Solution:
Let second no. = x
First no. = 2x
Third no. = 4x
∴ x + 2x + 4x = 56 × 3
x = 24
Difference = 3x = 72
First no. = 2x
Third no. = 4x
∴ x + 2x + 4x = 56 × 3
x = 24
Difference = 3x = 72
Q11. The avg. weight of three men A, B and C is 84 kg. Another man D joins the group and the average now becomes 80 kg. If another man E, whose weight is 3 kg more than that of D, replaces A, then the average weight of B, C, D and E becomes 79 kg. What is the weight of A?
70 kg
75 kg
80 kg
85 kg
None of these
Solution:
A + B + C = 252
A + B + C + D = 320 …….(i)
∴ D = 320 – 252 = 68 kg
and E = 71 kg.
E + B + C + D = 79 × 4 = 316 …..(ii)
From (i) & (ii)
A – E = 4
or A = 71 + 4 = 75 kg.
A + B + C + D = 320 …….(i)
∴ D = 320 – 252 = 68 kg
and E = 71 kg.
E + B + C + D = 79 × 4 = 316 …..(ii)
From (i) & (ii)
A – E = 4
or A = 71 + 4 = 75 kg.
Q12. A bucket contains a mixture of two liquids A and B in the proportion 7 : 5 . If 9 litres of the mixture is replaced by 9 litres of liquid B, then the ratio of the two liquids becomes 7 : 9. How much of the liquid B was there in the Bucket initially?
