Solutions for the Above Questions :

  1. (D)

45% of (x) + 25% of (x) = 4056

X = 6240

85% of (6240) = 5304


  1. (C)

Sum of numbers = 15% of (x) + 10% of (x) = 70

X = 280

Twice the number = 2 × 280 = 560


  1. (D)

Numerator of fraction increased 400%

So, 500% of (x)

Denominator increased 500%, so 600% of (y)

Resultant =  

500% of (x) ÷ 600% of (y) = 10 ÷ 21

Original fraction =  


  1. (A)

10% of 20% of ½ of a number is 102.


  1. (B)

58% of x-39% of x=247

-> 0.58x-0.39x=247->x=1300

Required Answer = 0.67 * 1300 =806


  1. (C)

According to question,

1240*25/100=310


  1. (C)

Bina’s monthly income (B) = 90/100 Anitha’s monthly income (A)

Sen’s monthly income =775200/12=Rs.64600

According to question

A+0.9A=64600->1.9A=64600-> A = Rs.34000

Therefore, Bina’s Monthly income (B) = 64600-34000= Rs.30600


  1. (A)

According to the question

  1. (D)

According to the question:


  1. (A)

Rajesh salary =

Maximum marks are = 36% of (x) = 180 => x = 500


  1. (B)

Remaining amount = 50%

Sharing between 3 sons so we get = 50% of (x) = 3 × 3250 => x = 19500


  1. (E)

Shalini got 436 out of 625

Percentage in an examination = 


  1. (D)

25% of 50 % (x) = 385
