Directions (Q. 1 - 5):

The share of A, B and C,

= > [20000 * 5 + 30000 * 7] : [30000 * 9] : [a * 5 + (a - 5000) * 7]

= > [100000 + 210000] : [270000] : [5a + 7a - 35000]

= > [310000] : [270000] : [12a - 35000]

According to the question,

(270000) / (12a - 35000) = 54 / 113

12a - 35000 = 565000

12a = 600000

a = 50000

The value of “a” be Rs. 50000

The initial investment of C = Rs. 50000

The principal amount invested by person M = Rs. 50000

SI = PNR / 100

Let the rate of interest be “b”,

According to the question,

50000 + [(50000 * b * 4) / 100] = 74000

[(50000 * b * 4) / 100] = 74000 - 50000

b = (24000 * 100) / (50000 * 4) = 12

The value of “b” be 12

The average of 7 consecutive even numbers = 3b = 36

The average of consecutive number/odd/even number is always the middle number. So, the numbers are,

= > 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42

The second largest even number = 40

Let the average of 5 odd number be xm

The product of second largest even number and the average of 5 consecutive odd number = 1960

40 * x = 1960

x = 1960 / 40 = 49

The five consecutive odd numbers are,

45, 47, 49, 51, 53

The smallest odd number = (8/7)* c - 3

45 + 3 = (8/7) * c

c = 48 * (7/8) = 42

The value of “c” be 42

The present age of father and son is in the ratio = 5 : 1

The age of father after 2 years = “c” = 42

The present age of father = 40 years

The present age of son = (40 / 5) * 1 = 8 years

The average present age of father, son and daughter = 20 years

40 + 8 + Daughter’s present age = 60

Daughter’s present age = 60 - 48 = 12 years

Multiples of present age of mother and daughter = 432 years

Mother * 12 = 432

Mother’s present age = (432 / 12) = 36 years

The age of mother, after 8 years = 36 + 8 = 44 years

The value of “d” be 44 years

Person P can do a piece of work = 44 days

(P + Q) can complete the work in, = 44/3 days

Q’s 1 day work = (3/44) - (1/44) = 2/44 = 1/22

Q can complete the whole work in, 22 days.

Person Q can complete (7/11)th of the work in, = 22 * (7/11) = 14 days

The value of “e” be 14

1) Answer: D

The value of “a” be Rs. 50000

2) Answer: A

The value of “b” be 12

3) Answer: C

The value of “c” be 42

4) Answer: D

The value of “d” be 44

5) Answer: B

The value of “e” be 14
