1.B (a+1)(b+1)(c+1)-1=1000
= (a+1)(b+1)(c+1) =1000+1 =1001 = 7x11x13
=(12+1)(10+1)(6+1) a=12 ,b=10
,c=6
12>10>6 a>b>c
so b=10
Answer is B
2B. a = an
+bn +cn
d bn+ cn +dn
Where a b c d are in continued proportion i.e a/b=b/c=c/d
Let a/b=b/c=c/d =k c=dk b=ck=dk2 a=bk2=dk3
LHS a/d = dk3/d =k3
RHS (dk3)n+(dk2)n+(dk)n
dn (k3n +k2n+kn)
kn (k2n +kn +1)
= kn
(dk2)n + (dk)n
+ (d)n
= dn
(k2n +kn +1) =
(k2n +kn +1)
k3 = kn
n=3 Answer
Short Cut Method assume a continued proportion series 8 ,4 ,2,1 in place of a b c d
8 = 8n+4n+2n
1
4n+ 2n +1n
23 =
8n+4n+2n
Here 23
point us n may be 3 . Put the value of n=3 and see
what happen
4n+ 2n +1n
23 =
83+43+23
672+64+8
744 =8 =23
43+
23 +13
=
64 +8 +1
=

It satisfies the equations so n=3 Answer is B
3C.If |a|=3,| b|=4 and | a+ b|=1 then | a- b|=?
|-3|=3,|4 |=4 and | -3+4|=1 | -3-4|= | -7| =7
or |3|=3,|-4 |=4 and | 3-4|=|-1 |=|1| | 3-(-4)|= | 7| =7
Answer C
4D.Here bacteria population to grow from 1,000 to 500,000 It is a question of GP
Here first we find out nth term n=? a= 1000 nth term = 500,000 r=2
nth term = arn-1
500.000 = 1000 x2n-1
500 = 2n-1
APPROXIMATELY
29 = 2n-1
n-1 =9
n=10
Growth of bacteria is as follows-
1000
2
000
4000 ,,,,,,,

Answer is A
11.x will complete 1/20 in one day. Y will complete 1/30 in one day.
Z will complete 1/60 in one day.
4 days = (1/20 + 1/30 + 1/60)*4
= (3+2+1/60)*4
= 6/60*4
= 4/10
= 2/5th complete
6 days = (1/20 + 1/60)*6
= (3+1/60)*6
= 4/60*6
= 4/10 = 2/5
total work complete = 2/5+2/5 = 4/5
work remaining = 1/5
1/5/1/20=1/5*20/1
= 4 days
22/7*62*4 = 5*6*7( p)
p = 22/7*36*4
5*6*7
p = 22/7*24/35
13.Expensive brand cost = 20*60=1200
Expense now = 1200-450=750
Average cost of the mixture =750/20
Rs.30 Rs. 60
Rs. 750/20
450/20 150/20
3:1
14.= (16+9)2
= 252
= 625
15. Total time taken = 2.5+2+4=8.5 hour
Distance = 100+100 = 200 kms
Speed = 200/8.5 = 23.52
16. Let wages of y =a, then x=1.25a
X took 75/1.25a = 60/a
Y will take 1.25*60/a
=75/a*a
=Rs.75
2250+135= 2385
2385-2000=Rs. 385
discount% = 385/2250*180
= 17%
18... cost price for x = 5
selling price for x = 10
profit = 5
cost price for x = 12
selling price = 15
profit = 3
total profit = 5+3= 8

21 A Prime numbers between 1 to 100
are 2,3,5,7,..................97
Now there is no any prime
number which having unit digit 5 or 2 (ie
x2,or x5 ) except 2 and 5
SO we get 2x5
=10 and this is only 0 reflect in product of prime
numbers between 1 to 100

Answer isC
25A A point P moves in a plane such that its distance from another point Q is always 7 cm.

Here P moves in a circle keeping a distance of 7 cm .from point Q
If the point P moves from its starting position in the plane, say P1, a distance of 44 cms and halts at point P2
Here radius of
this Circle is 7 cm , circumference of this circle
is 2 x 7x22 /7 = 44 cm .Now p moves
as a P1
a distance of 44 cm
and reaches to P2.
It is nothing but it covers circumference of this
circle and reaches
again to original
position so distance between P1P2
is 0
answer is A
26B Here no need to find 2 and 3 years compound
interest . Compound interest is interest on interest and
it is
calculated at the same rate
Difference of 3rd
and 2nd year interest Rs968-880 = Rs88
Extra interest for one year on
Rs 880 So % of rate of interest is ( 88 /880
)x100 =10%
Answer is B
28C . Let Raghu’s age now be x
5 years hence will be x +5
from statement I x = f-30
f = 50 +5 = 55
Therefore x = 55-30 =25
5years hence Raghu’s
age = 25 + 5 =30
There from both
statements together
The answer is
[C]
29 C . From statement I à 15 boys scored
over 80%
From statement II à
½ of 50 = 25 students
Therefore no. of girls = 25-15
= 10
The answer is deduced from I
& II both
The answer is [C]
30E From statement 1à Jan
to July is 15000
From statement 2à
July to Dec 1500* 6 =9000
Individually the statements don’t tell us about the whole year
Combined Jan
to July + July to Dec
1 5000 + 9000 = 24000
Jan to Dec +
July = 24000
But salary
during July is not know
Therefore average
for 12 months cannot be found
Therefore the answer
is = [E]
31C . Is x = z, x,y,&z are real numbers
From statement (I) 2y = x + c
From statement (II) 3 z =
x + 2y
2y = 3z-x
combined x + c =3z- x
2 x = 2z
Therefore x =z
The answer is (C)
32C.from statement 1 à x2 - x – 12
= 0
(x-4) (x +3)=0
Therefore x =4 Or -3
From statement 2à
x2 + x –20 =0
( x-4) ( x +5) =0
Therefore x =4 or-5
Therefore x =4 Common in both statement

return 100x7/100 =Rs70
No.of share of co B
1400/8=

200x10
=2000
200x8/100= Rs160
No of share of co C
2200/a ( let it be
a)
2200x10/a
2200x9x10/(ax100) = 1620/a
Total return 70 +160+(1620/a ) = 10.25 %of 4000
230 + 1620/a =410
1620 /a = 410-230=180
1680/180 = a
9
=a
So price of co C share is Rs

Answer is B
39C Let maximum marks of each paper is 100 ,total maximum marks
are 500 And he gets 6a,7a,8a,9a,and 10
marks in each paper
6a+7a+8a+9a+10a= 40 a= 60%of 500 =
300
a = 300/40 = 7.5
% in each paper is 6x7.5
= 45 , 52.5 , 60 ,67.5
,75 ( Add 7.5 after 45 instead of multiply 7.5 to
each i.e 7,8,9,10 for fast calculations)
He gets marks more than 50% in 4 papers
Answer is C

41BHere First we find out the cost of Mirchi powder
so that 25% may be gained by selling the mixture at
Rs.60 kg
Let cost of Mirchi powder is x
x + 25% of x = 60
x+
x/4
=60 5x/4
=60 = Rs 48
Cost of Mirchi powder Should come Rs 48 .00 per Kg
Let "a" be mixed With 16kg Of Rs 55 per kg
40a +16x55 =48(a+16)
48a- 40a= 16x55-48x16
8
a
= 16(55 -48 ) = 16x7
a = 16x7 /8 = 14 (don't calculate in beginning if we calculate 16x55 and 18x16 in
beginning it
takes our time and again we divide the subtraction of both by
8also Now
see there is no any time consuming calculations so
be alert in
calculations)
Answer is B
42C If y,2y+2,3y+3 are in G.P. then their fourth term is
In G.P y (3y+3) =(2y+2)2
3y2 +3y =4y2+8y +4
y2 +5y +4 = ( y+4 ) (y+1) y= -4or-1 -1 gives 2y+2 =0 so ignore it
Now our terms are -4 ,-6 ,-9 , x
