3. Answer: B 7. Answer: A
The average of seven numbers = 32 Let P be x
Sum of seven numbers = 7 × 32 x = 2/7 R
Sum of seven numbers = 224 Q = 3x
The average of six numbers = 29 Now average, (x + 3x + 7/2x)/3 = 45
Sum of six numbers = 29 × 6 = 174 15x/6 = 45
Difference = 224 - 174 x = 18
= > 50 Difference between Q and P = 3x – x = 2x = 36
4. Answer: C 8. Answer: C
Sum of the six number = 250 Let three numbers are A, B and C
Sum of first three number = 3 * 45 = 135 Sum of 1st two numbers = 6 * 2 = 12
Sum of last two number = 2 * 35 = 70 Sum of last two numbers = 10 * 2 = 20
1/3rd of fourth number = 1/3 * (250 – 135 – 70) = Sum of 1st and last numbers = 15 * 2 = 30
15 Therefore, total sum = 2(A + B + C) = 62
A + B + C = 31
5. Answer: B Required average of A, B and C = 31/3
Total marks scored in section A = 25 * 42 =
1050 9. Answer: B
Total marks scored in section B = 20 * 39 = 780 (53 * n – 20 + 15)/n = 53 – 1
Total marks scored in section C = 15 * 30 = 450 53*n – 5 = 52 * n
Required average = (1050 + 780 + 450)/60 = 38 n=5

3. Answer: B
The average cost of three mobiles A, B and C =
48000
Total cost of three mobiles A, B and C =
48000*3 = 144000
Average cost of mobiles A, B, C and D = = 12: 8
48000*(90/100) = 43200 = 3: 2
Total cost of Four mobiles A, B, C and D = Number of male employees = 3/5 * 40 = 24
43200*4 = 172800
The cost price of mobile D = 172800 – 144000 = 7. Answer: A
Rs. 28800 The correct average = [25*60 – (75 + 80) + (85
+ 95)] / 25
4. Answer: D = > [1500 – 155 + 180] / 25 = 61
Total weight of 75 students = 75*50=3750 (Or)
New weight = (75*50) – 64 – 56 + 46 + 59 = Increased mark = (85 – 75) + (95 – 80) = 25
(75*50) – 15 Increased average = Sum/n = 25/25 = 1
New average = (3750 – 15)/75 = 49.80 kg So, the correct average = 60 + 1 = 61

3. Answer: D 6. Answer: C
Number of boys = x Total salary of A+B+C = 21000*3 = 63000 -->
Number of girls = y (1)
(x + y) * 46.6 = 48x + 45y Total salary of B+C+D = 23000*3 = 69000 -->
(2)
4. Answer: A On subtracting (1) and (2), we get,
Since the average of 9 numbers is 11, total sum D – A = 6000 --> (3)
of all 9 numbers = 9 *11 = 99 D + A = 50000 ----> (4)
If 5 is multiplied with each number, the effect Using the equation (3) and (4), we get,
will be same as multiplying 5 with 99. D = 28000, A = 22000
The new total alter multiplying each number by Average salary of B and C = (63000 – 22000)/2
5 is 99 * 5 = 495 = Rs. 20500
Now 5 is added to each number, so in total 45 is
added. 7. Answer: A
The new total after addition of 5 to each number Average weight of the company before joining
= 495 + 45 = 540 the employee = x
The new average = 540/9 = 60 After joining the employee the average weight
of the company = x + 2
13 * x + 64 = 14 * (x + 2)
5. Answer: B 13x + 64 = 14x + 28
x = 36 x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 24*4
Average weight of the company = 36 + 2 = 38 4x + 12 = 96
kg 4x = 96 – 12
4x = 84
8. Answer: C x = 21
Number of students = y The highest odd number = x + 6 = 27
Total weight of the class = xy The lowest even number = 2*27 = 54
Total weight of the class after reduced the The sum of 5 consecutive even number = 54 +
weight = xy – 5 * 4 = xy – 20 56 + 58 + 60 + 62 = 290
(x – 2) * y = xy – 20 Required difference = 290 – 96 = 194
xy – 2y = xy – 20
2y = 20 11. Answer: D
y = 10 Let the number of clerks in the company be x,
800*30 + 240*x = 300(30 + x)
9. Answer: C 24000 + 240x = 9000 + 300x

7. Answer: B 8. Answer: C
We know that Given, average of (X+Y) = 50
Average of n consecutive even/odd numbers = ∴ (X+Y) = 100
first term + (n – 1) Average of (Z+Y) = 48
56 = first term + (5 – 1) ∴ (Z+Y) = 96
=> First term = 56 – 4 Average of (X+Z) = 52
=> First term = 52 ∴ (X+Z) = 104
Set of even numbers = {52, 54, 56, 58, 60} Now , 2(X+Y+Z) = 100+96+104
(I) 2(X+Y+Z) = 300
18 = first term + (6 – 1) X+Y+Z=300/2=150
=> First term = 18 – 5 X+Y+Z=150
=> First term = 13 Z = 150-100=50
X = 150-96=54
Y = 150-104=46 12. Answer: C
Number of male employees = 2x
9. Answer: D Number of female employees = x
Number of boys = 3/5 x 80 = 48 Average weight of female employees = 100y
Number of girls = 2/5 x 80 = 32 Average weight of male employees = 100y *
Required average = (48 x 24 + 32 x 18 + 54)/81 150/100 = 150y
= (1152 + 576 + 54)/81 (2x * 150y) + (x * 100y) = 200
= 1782/81 300xy + 100xy = 200
= 22 Kg xy = 0.5
Total weight of male employees = 2 * 150 * 0.5
10. Answer: A = 150 kg
Let P=4x, therefore Q = 125% of 4x=5x
5x-4x = 9 13. Answer: B
x=9 Sum of weight of (Ram + Rinni + Ronit + Ronny
P= 36, Q =45 + Rocky) = 42 x 5 = 210 kg
Ratio of R to Q= 4:3 Sum of weight of (Ram + Rinni + Ronit + Ronny
Therefore age of R =(45/3) (4) =60 + Rocky + Ramu) = (42 – 2.5) x 6 = 237
Value of S= 60+20 =80 Weight of Ramu = 237 – 210 = 27 kg
Value of T = 2(45)+6 =96 Average weight of (Ram + Rinni + Ronit) = 43.5
x 3 = 130.5
Required average = = 63.4 Sum of weight of (Ronny + Rocky) = 210 –
130.5 = 79.5
11. Answer: A Weight of Ronny = 79.5 – 37.5 = 42 kg
Total number of persons in the class = 34 + 2 = Required average = (42 + 27)/2 = 34.5 kg

Lightest teacher’s weight = x - 88 14. Answer: C
Heaviest teacher’s weight = x A + B + C + D = 52 * 4 = 208
x + x – 88 = 36 * 72 – 34 * 60 D = 5x * (320/300) = 16x/3
2x – 88 = 2592 - 2040 5x + 4x + 3x + 16x/3 = 208
2x = 640 52x = 208 * 3
x = 320 x = 12
Lightest teacher = 320 – 88 = 232 kg C = 3 * 12 = 36

y = 43.75 Let the number of male employees = a
And the number of female employees = 30 – a
7) Answer: A a * 450 + (30 – a) * 300 = 30 * 360
Let the average weight of x/5 students who 450a – 300a = 10800 – 9000
newly joined the class = y a = 1800/150 = 12
x * 52 + (x/5) * y = (52 + 2) * (x + x/5) The number of male employees = 12
52x + xy/5 = 54 * (6x/5) The number of female employees = 30 – 12 =
324x – 260x = xy 18
xy = 64x Required average = [12 * (450 * 90/100) + 18 *
y = 64 (300 * 105/100)]/30
= (12 * 405 + 18 * 315)/12 = (4860 + 5670)/30 =
8) Answer: A 10530/30 = Rs.351
15 * (x * 150/100) + 10 * ((x – 6) * 125/100) = 39
