Explanation for the Above Questions :

1.d) 38kg

Explanation:

let the number of boys=x; and

number of girls = y

Now, (y-2)=x and x+y=52

y-2+y=52

2y=54

Y=27

X=25

Let the average weight of the girls be ‘a’.

Or 27×a=(52×40)-(25×42)

Or 27×a=2080-1050

a =1030/27

=38.148

=38


  1. a) Rs 19000

Explanation:

sum of the incomes of P, Q, R, S and T=15000× 5=75000

sum of the incomes of P, Q=2×12000=24000

sum of the incomes of R& S=2×16000=32000

Average income of T

= (P+Q+ R+S+T)-(P+Q)-(R+S)

= 75000-24000-32000=19000


  1. b) 5

Explanation:

Total number of coins with A, B,C,& D=5×4=20

Total number of coins with D,E&F=3×7=21

Total number of coins with A, B, C, D, E & F=6×6=36

Number of coins with D=(A+B+C+D)+(D+E+F)-(A+B+C+D+E+F)

=20+21-36=5


  1. b) 89.25km

Explanation:

Since distance travelled at different speed is same, we can use the short cut

Since distance travelled at different speed is same, we can use the short cut


  1. b) 60km

Explanation:

The average speed of gabbarsingh from Ramgarh to Laxmangath

[Because distance from Ramgarh to Vijaygarh and from Vijaygarh to Laxmangathis same].

He is travel from Laxmangath  toRamgarh at speed of 80km

The average speed of entire journey


  1. c) Rs 14000

Explanation:

Since all the employees are given a bonus of Rs 2000, hence the average would also increase by Rs 2000.


  1. a) Rs 6000

Explanation:

Total expenditure of P, Q & R=3×5000=15000

Total expenditure of Q, R & S =3×7000=21000

S-P=21000-15000=6000

Also, we are given S=3P. so 3P-P =6000 & P=3000

Total expenditure of Q & R=15000-3000=12000

Average expenditure of Q& R=12000/2 =6000


  1. b) 40years

Explanation:

The average age of 8 person is increased by 2i.e sum of the age would increase by 16. Age of the new person would be 16 years more than age of the person replaced, so age3 of new person =24+16=40 years


  1. c) 38years

Explanation:

The new average is increased by 1 year hence sum of the age would have increased by 6years. Age of supervisor =32+6=38 years


  1. b) 70

Explanation:

Let the average runs scored by 6 batman =x

Total runs scored by them =6x

Then, 6x+x+30=310

7x=280

X=40

Score of captain=40+30=70


  1. (b) 111

Explanation:

Ajay’s score = 63 + 30 = 93

Rahul’s score = 93 – 15 = 78

Sum of Manish’s and Suresh’s scores

= 3 x 63 – 78 = 189 – 78 = 111


  1. (c) 163

Explanation:

Average of 8 consecutive odd numbers = (656/8) 82

Fourth number = 82 – 1 = 81

First number = 75

Average of 4 even numbers = 87

Second even number = 87 – 1 =86

Second largest even number = 88

Required sum = 75 + 88 = 163


  1. (e) None of these

Explanation:

Difference = 48 + 59 + 67 44 – 45 – 61 =24

Correct average

= 56 + (24+24) =27


  1. (d) 15

Explanation:

Let the number of males be x.

18x + 270 = 20x + 240

20x – 18x = 270 – 240

2x = 30

x=30/2=15


  1. (a) 20 years

Explanation:

P + Q = R + 25 … (i)

Q = R + 5 …….. (ii)

Subtracting equation (ii) from equation (i),

P+Q-Q=R+ 25 – R – 5

P = 20 years


  1. (e) None of these

Explanation:

x+x+2+x+4+x+6

= 4 x 51

4x + 12 = 204

4x = 204 – 12 = 192

x =  192/4  = 48 = P

R = 48 + 4 = 52

P x R = 48 x 52 = 2496


  1. (e) None of these

Explanation:

Tricky approach

Height of Shreyas

= 162+26

= 188 cm


  1. (b) 3953

Explanation:

Average of 9 consecutive positive integers = 63

Fifth number = 63

Smallest number = 59

Largest number = 67

Required product 47= 59 x 67 = 3953

Explanation:

Kapil’s present age  = 12 years

After 6 years, Kapil’s age  = 18 years

Father’s present age =36-6
