Alternate method:
7 10 25 60 123 222
3 15 35 63 99
(1×3) (3×5) (5×7) (7×9) (9×11)

Q.4)d
Q.5)c
Q.6) b
Total pens = 32 + 40 = 72
Equal share, so share of each =
Cost paid for extra pens = 36 – 32 = 4 pens
4pens = Rs.280
1 pen = 70
Q.7) e
Income ratio = 3x : 4x
Expenditure ratio
Savings of A = 3x-2y=800 —– (1)
Savings of B =4x-3y=800 —– (2)
Income of B
(Alternate method)
Income ratio 3x:4x
Rs.800 each savings
Expenditure=
Given
B’s monthly income=
Q.18) d
12 years hence ratio of wife to husband = 5 : 6
Ratio difference = 1 ratio = 6years
Husband’s age (12 years hence) = 6 ratio = 36 years
At the time of marriage = 36 – 12 years = 24years
(Alternate method)
Let husband’s age be H and wife age be W
(W+18)
Q.19) b
C.P of pen = x and C.P of Pencil = y
400x+900y=13400—–(1)
40x+180y=1880—–(2)
Solving both the equations, we get x=20 and y= 6
Therefore the cost of a pen is Rs.20.
