Question : The line chart given below shows the cost price and value of profit of 6 articles L, M, N, O, P, and Q. Selling price = Cost price + Profit A1 = The value of the average selling price of all articles. A2 = The value of the average cost price of L, M, N, and O. What is the value of (A1 + A2)?
Option 1: 1875
Option 2: 1425
Option 3: 1675
Option 4: 1025
Correct Answer: 1675
Solution : Average cost price for L, M, N, O = A2 = $\frac{800 + 700 + 500 + 600}{4}=\frac{2600}{4}= 650$ Now, we have to calculate the average selling price. Selling price = Cost price + Profit ⇒ Selling price of L, M, N, O, P, and Q = A1 = (800 + 300) + (700 + 250) + (500 + 400) + (600 + 500) + (400 + 350) + (900 + 450) = 1100 + 950 + 900 + 1100 + 750 + 1350 = 6150 So, Average selling price = $\frac{6150}{6} = 1025$ $\therefore$ A1 + A2 = 1025 + 650 = 1675 Hence, the correct answer is 1675.
Question : A is a point outside of a circle with centre O. AP and AQ are two tangents of the circle. If AP = a2 + 14 and AQ = 239, then what is the value of a?
Option 1: 22
Option 2: 13
Option 3: 15
Option 4: 14
Correct Answer: 15
Solution : Given, Length of AP = a2 + 14 Length of AQ = 239 We know that tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal ⇒ AP = AQ ⇒ a2 + 14 = 239 ⇒ a2 = 225 ⇒ a = $\small\sqrt{225}$ ⇒ a = 15 Hence, the correct answer is 15.

Question : The net worth of any bank is equal to_____.
Option 1: liabilities - assets
Option 2: (reserves + loans) - liabilities
Option 3: interest + liabilities

Correct Answer: (reserves + loans) - liabilities

The net worth of a bank is defined as its total assets minus its total liabilities. The difference between a bank's total assets and total liabilities is the bank's net worth.

Question : A sum of money is divided among A, B, and C in the ratio 3 : 2 : 5, respectively. If the share of C is INR 300 more than B, then how much more money will A get than B?
Option 1: INR 150
Option 2: INR 75
Option 3: INR 100
Option 4: INR 125
Correct Answer: INR 100
Solution : Let the shares of A, B, and C as $3x, 2x$, and $5x$, respectively. The share of C is INR 300 more than B. So, $5x = 2x + 300$ ⇒ $3x = 300$ ⇒ $x = 100$ Therefore, the shares of A, B, and C are 300, 200, and 500, respectively. So, A will get INR 100 more than B. Hence, the correct answer is INR 100.

Question : The average weight of 45 students of a school is 55 kg. If the weight of the teacher is included, the average weight rises by 500 grams. Find the weight (in kg ) of the teacher.
Option 1: 78
Option 2: 77
Option 3: 79
Option 4: 80
Correct Answer: 78
Solution : Total weight of students initially $= 45 \times 55 = 2475$ kg Let the weight of the teacher be $x$. Total number of people now = 46 According to the problem, $\frac{2475+x}{46} = 55+\frac{500}{1000}$ $⇒\frac{2475+x}{46} = 55+0.5$ $⇒2475+x = 55.5\times 46$ $⇒2475+x= 2553$ $\therefore x = 78$ kg Hence, the correct answer is 78 kg.
Question : Directions: Three of the following four-letter clusters are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which is the one that does not belong to that group?
Option 1: XVU
Option 2: TQP
Option 3: CAZ
Option 4: KIH
Correct Answer: TQP
Solution : Let's check the given options – First option: XVU→X – 2 = V; V – 1 = U Second option: TQP→T – 3 = Q; Q – 1 = P Third option: CAZ→C – 2 = A; A – 1 = Z Fourth option: KIH→K – 2 = I; I – 1 = H
The second option is different from the other three options because the difference in the position value of the first and second letters is 3 instead of 2. Hence, the second option is correct.
