Hursh wanted to subtract 5 from a no.Unfortunately, he added 5 instead of subtracting.Find the percentage change in the result?
A.300% B.66.66% C.50% D. 33.33% E. cannot be determined
answer:
let the number be x
instead of x-5. . . .he made it x+5
% change in result = (x+5 - x +5)/(x-5) *100
So it 'll be depend on value of x
answer E. cannot be determined
In a class , 25% of the students were absent for an exam. 30% failed by 20 marks and 10% just passed because of grace marks of 5. find the average score of the class if the remaining students scored a average of 60 marks and the pass marks are 33 (counting the final score of the candidates)
A. 37.266 B. 37.6 C. 37.8 D. 36.93 E. 37.5
ANSWER:
25% absent => present 75x
30% failed by 20=> score = 13 and Total score = 30 x 13 = 390
10% passed with 5 grace marks=> score = 28 and Total score = 10 x 28 = 280
Remaining 35% got 60 marks => Total score = 35 x 60 = 2100
Total mark = 2770
Average = 2770/75 = 36.93 D
hello
the answer to Q. 2 is B.37.6 As it has been specified to consider the final score ,so it is 33 for the students who passed with grace marks.
Thus,390+330+2100/75 =(2820/75)*100 = 37.6%
and for Q. 1 ,i myself dont know the answer.
1> E
2> B
3> Confused .. All seem to be the answer
4> A
5> Didnt get
6> B
3. Hans and Bhaskar hav salaries that jointly amount to Rs. 10000 per month. They spend the same amount monthly and then it is found that the ratio of their savings is 6 : 1. Which of the following is Hans's salary?
A. 6000 B. 5000 C.4000 D.3000
puneet_champ is corrrect the question seems to be incorrect or missing some data
Let Hans's saalry be 3000 and their saving = x then
(3000-x)/(7000-x) = 1/6
=> x = 2200
again Let Hans's saalry be 4000 and their saving = x then
(4000-x)/(6000-x) = 1/6
=>x = 3600
so all the values are possibe
B is the only possible ans. , as the ratio is 6:1 not 1:6 .
so ,it goes as , let savings be 6x and 1 x
for A. 6000-6x = 4000-1x
2000=5x => x=400
possible
B. 5000-6x =5000-x
0=5x
not possible
C.4000-6x=6000-x
5x=-2000
D. 3000-6x= 7000-x
5x=-4000 ,again negative is not possible
Thanks Buddy !!!
