Explanations:

1. Number of students who did not pass in school B

1100 × 66
= = 726
100

Number of students who did not pass in school C

1100 × 44
= = 484
100

Total number of students who did not pass in schools B and C = 726 + 484 = 1210

Hence, option B is correct.

2. The total marks, scored in the maths paper

250
= 47% of 250 = 47 × = 117.50
100

Total marks (math + English) = 250 + 350 = 600

He is to get overall 36% marks means 36% of 600 = 216

The total marks, he needs to score in English paper = 216 – 117.50 = 98.5

It means, he needs to score 98.5 marks out of 350 in English paper to get overall 36% marks.

100
In term of percentage = 98.5 × % = 28.14%
350

Hence, option D is correct.

3. Total scores by running between the wickets = 190 – (7 × 4 + 8 × 6) = 190 – 76 = 114

114 × 100
Reqd. % = % = 60%
190

Hence, option C is correct.

4. Let the total marks = 5x............(i) the marks scored by Neha = 20% of 5x = x

The total marks need to pass the examination = x + 21 ...........(ii)

The marks scored by Nisha = 40% of 5x = 2x

According to the question, 2x – x = 63, x = 63

From the equation (i) , The total marks = 5x = 5 × 63 = 315

From the equation (ii), The total marks need to pass that examination = x + 21 = 63 + 21 = 84

84 × 100
Reqd. % = = 26.67%
315

Hence, option C is correct.

5. Income of the man in Rs. = x

Nidhi spends 70%

∴ Amount spend in Rs. = 0.70x

∴ Amount of savings in Rs. = x – 0.70x = 0.30x

If her income and spending both increases by 20%,

New amount of Income Rs. = 1.20x

New amount spend in Rs. = (1.20) × (0.70x) = 0.84x

∴ New amount of savings in Rs. = 1.20x – 0.84x = 0.36x

∴ Percentage increase in savings of Nidhi

0.36x – 0.30x 0.06

= × 100% = × 100% = 20%
0.30x 0.30

∴ 20% increase in savings

Hence, option A is correct.

6. Each boy got, 60% of the total number girls = 60% of 25 = 15 sweets

The total number of sweets distributed among the boys = 15 × 50 = 750 sweets

Each girl got, 20% of the total number of boys = 20% of 50 = 10 sweets

The total number of sweets distributed among the girls = 25 × 10 = 250 sweets

Total sweets = 750 + 250 = 1000

Hence, option C is correct.

7. Let the investment of Shayam = 100x

Then, the investment of Ram = (100 + 50)% of 100x = 150% of 100x = 150x

And the investment of Mohan = (100 + 25)% of 100x = 125x

100 100
The required percentage = (150x – 125x) × = 25x × = 20%
125x 125x

Hence, option E is correct.

8. Let the total population of the town= y

3
% of males = × 100% = 60%
5

100 – 25
% of adult males = × 60% = 45%
100

45
× y = 8100
100

100
⇒ y = 8100 ×
45

⇒ y = 18000

Hence, option (D) is correct.

9. Let initial population of the village = y

According to the question

120 85 110
y× × × = 106590
100 100 100

100 100 100

⇒ y = 106590 × × ×
110 85 120

⇒ y = 95000

Hence, option (A) is correct.

10. Gifts received by each student = 20% of total number of students i.e.

20
× 40 = 8
100

Gifts received by each teacher = 15% of total number of students i.e.

15
× 40 = 6
100

Total Gifts = 40 × 8 + 6 × 10 = 380

Hence, option (C) is correct.

11. Let the number of boys be ‘B’ and girls be ‘G’

As per the condition B + G = 12500 …..(1)

50 70 60
And B+ G= × 12500
100 100 100

⇒ 5B + 7G = 75000 …..(2)

From ….(1) and ….(2)

We get, G = 6250 = number of girls

Hence, option (D) is correct.

12. Total votes cast = 100%

% of votes secured by winner = 70%

% of votes secured by loser = 100 – 70 = 30%

Majority = Votes secured by winner – Votes secured by loser

22. Let the number of bacteria in the beginning of experiment be ‘x’.

At the end of 1st year,

Number of bacteria = x + (27% of x) = x + 0.27x = 1.27x

Then, by the end of 2nd year,

Number of bacteria = 1.27x + (20% of 1.27x) = 1.27x + 0.254x = 1.524x

Ratio of bacteria at the end of 1st year to 2nd year = 1.27x : 1.524x = 1270 : 1524 = 635 : 762 = 5 : 6

Hence, option A is correct.

Smart Approach:-
As the ratio at the end of 1st year to the end of 2nd year is asked we can assume that the number of
bacteria at end of 1st year is 100x

So the number of bacteria at the end of 2nd year = 120% of 100x = 120x

Required ratio = 100x : 120x = 5 : 6

Hence option A is correct.

23. Let original price of iPhone is 100 in 1996.
