Ramesh spent Rs. 38460 on the renovation of his home, Rs. 24468 on buying furniture and remaining 28% of the total amount he had as cash with him. What was the total amount ?

Correct Answer: 7.11

Explanation:

16 of 225 is = 

$$\begin{gathered} 16 = p × 225 100 \\ p = 1600 225 = 7 . 1111 \end{gathered}$$

Correct Answer: 18.75%

Explanation:

Given that to find 15 of 80

=> What % of 80 is 15

Let it be 'p'

=> p% of 80 = 15

=>  $$\begin{gathered} p x 80 100 = 15 \\ ? p = 15 x 100 80 \\ ? p = 1500 80 = 18 . 75 \end{gathered}$$

 

Therefore, 15 is 18.75% of 80 => 18.75% of 80 = 15

 

Example::

Now, in the similar way we can find 15% of 80 =?

=> 15x80/100 = p

=> p = 4 x 3 = 12

 

Therefore, 15% of 80 = 12

Correct Answer: 5223

Explanation:

Given, 

 

25% of three-seventh of 26% of a number is 145.5

 

Let the required number be 'N'

 

i.e,  25 100 x 3 7 x 26 100 x N = 145 . 5

 

N =  145 . 5 x 7 x 10000 75 x 26

 

=> N = 5223.07

Correct Answer: 60%

Explanation:

              Men               Women

 

              600x               400x

 

      Total engineers = 480x

 

      Male engineers = 480x X 0.66 = 320

 

   Women who are Engineers  = 160x 

 

  Women are not Engineers  = 400x - 160x = 240x

 

 Required percentage = 240 400 x 100 = 60%

Correct Answer: 0.765D

Explanation:

If the price is reduced by 15 %, then the new price will be 0.85D

If this new price is further reduced by 10%, the discounted price will be 0.9 x 0.85D = 0.765D

Correct Answer: 25%

Explanation:

Here, k = 7 and l = 28
Therefore, first number = k lx100 % of second number = 7/28 x 100% of second number = 25% of second number.

Correct Answer: 24000

Explanation:

Let the total population be 'P'

P x (96/100) = 23040

P = 240 * 100

P = 24000.

Correct Answer: 50

Explanation:

Let the required number be 'p'

36 of what number is 18 implies 36% of p = 18

=> 36 x p/100 = 18

=> p = 1800/36

=> p = 50.

 

Hence, 36% of 50 is 18.

Correct Answer: 0.625%

Explanation:

From the given data,

let the amounts invested be 4p, 5p and 3p

Net profit = Total profit - Total loss

= 10x5p/100 + 25x3p/200 - 20x4p/100

= 0.875p - 0.8p

= 0.075p

Therefore, profit% = (Net profit/Total investment) x 100

= 0.075 x 100/12 

= 0.0625%

Correct Answer: Rs.5000

Explanation:

Let a, b and c be the amounts invested in schemes X, Y and Z respectively. Then,

As we know:

Simple interest (S.I.) = PTR/100

(a × 10 × 1/100) + (b × 12 × 1/100) + (c × 15 × 1/100) = 3200

= 10a + 12b + 15c = 320000 .........(1)

Now, c = 240% of b = 12b/5 .........(2)

And, c = 150% of a = 3a/2 => a = 2/3 c = (2 × 12)b/(3 × 5) = 8b/5 .......(3)

From (1), (2) and (3), we have

16b + 12b + 36b = 320000 => 64b = 320000 => b = 5000

? Sum invested in Scheme Y = Rs.5000.
