20 men went to a restaurant. Ninteen of them paid Rs.70 each and the twentieth man paid Rs.90.25 more than the average of all the 20 men. What is the total bill ?
Options- A. Rs. 1495
- B. Rs. 548
- C. Rs. 850
- D. Rs. 1750
- Correct Answer
- Rs. 1495
ExplanationLet the average bill paid by twenty members = 'x'
But 19 men paid each = Rs. 70
20th man paid Rs. 90.25 more than the avg bill of 20 = x + 90.25
20x = 19(70) + x + 90.25
19x = 1330 + 90.25
19x = 1420.25
x = 1420.25/19 = Rs. 74.75But the total bill = 20 x 74.75 = Rs. 1495.

Correct Answer: 33
Explanation:
Average of 26,29,35 and 43 is 33.25 . Also the average of 26 , 29, n, 35 and 43 lies between 25 and 35 i.e,
=> 125 < 26+29+n+35+43 < 175
=> 125 < 133 + n < 175
=> n < 42
Since the value of n is an integer and greater than 33.25 then 33 < n < 42 for every integer n.
Correct Answer: 26 years
Explanation:
Since we know that the difference b/w the age of any two persons remains always constant, while the ratio of their ages gets changed as the time changes.
so, if the age of his child be x (presently)
Then the age of wife be x + 26 (presently)
Thus the total age = x + ( x + 26) = 32 [ 252-220 =32]
=> x = 3
Therefore, The age of her child is 3 years and her self is 29 years. Hence her age at the time of the birth of her child was 26 years.

Correct Answer: 40
Explanation:
Sum of the present ages of husband, wife and child = (27 x 3 + 3 x 3) years = 90 years.
Sum of the present ages of wife and child (20 x 2 + 5 x 2) years = 50 years.
Husband's present age = (90 - 50) years = 40 years.
Correct Answer: 137
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 25
Correct Answer: 55
Explanation:
Average = (11 + 22 + 33 + 44 + 55 + 66 + 77 + 88 + 99) / 9
=( (11 + 99) + (22 + 88) + (33 + 77) + (44 + 66) + 55) / 9
= (4 * 110 + 55)/9 = 495 / 9 = 55.
Correct Answer: 74
Explanation:
Number of runs scored more to increse the ratio by 1 is 26 - 14 = 12
To raise the average by one (from 14 to 15), he scored 12 more than the existing average.
Therefore, to raise the average by five (from 14 to 19), he should score 12 x 5 = 60 more than the existing average. Thus he should score 14 + 60 = 74.
Correct Answer: 36
Explanation:
Total number of students = 54 x 30
When arranged in rows of 45, number of rows formed are,
= 36.
Correct Answer: 31( 5/7)
Explanation:
Required average = (67 * 2 + 35 * 2 + 6 * 3) / (2 + 2 + 3)
= (134 + 70 + 18) / 7 = 222 / 7 = 31(5/7) years.
