Question : Which fraction among the following is the least? $\frac{5}{11}, \frac{7}{12}, \frac{8}{13}, \frac{9}{17}$
Option 1: $\frac{5}{11}$
Option 2: $\frac{7}{12}$
Option 3: $\frac{9}{17}$
Option 4: $\frac{8}{13}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{5}{11}$
Solution : Given: The fractions are $\frac{5}{11}, \frac{7}{12}, \frac{8}{13}, \frac{9}{17}$. Determine which fraction is the smallest by converting the fractions to decimals. $\frac{5}{11}=0.4545, \frac{7}{12}=0.5833, \frac{8}{13}=0.6153, \frac{9}{17}=0.5294$ So, $\frac{5}{11}$ is the least fraction. Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{5}{11}$.
Question : The sum of three fractions is $2\frac{11}{24}$. On dividing the largest faction by the smallest fraction, $\frac{7}{6}$ is obtained which is $\frac{1}{3}$ greater than the middle fraction. The smallest fraction is:
Option 1: $\frac{5}{8}$
Option 2: $\frac{3}{4}$
Option 3: $\frac{5}{6}$
Option 4: $\frac{3}{7}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{3}{4}$
Solution : Let the largest fraction be $x$, the middle fraction be $y$ and the smallest fraction be $z$. From the question, on dividing the largest fraction by the smallest fraction i.e. $\frac{x}{z}=\frac{7}{6}⇒x=\frac{7}{6}z$ Now, the middle fraction is $\frac{1}{3}$ more than $\frac{7}{6}$. $ y=\frac{7}{6}-\frac{1}{3 }=\frac{5}{6}$ Putting the
Question : In a right triangle for an acute angle $x$, if $\sin x=\frac{3}{7}$, then find the value of $\cos x$.
Option 1: $\frac{2}{7}$
Option 3: $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
Option 4: $\frac{2\sqrt{10}}{7}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{2\sqrt{10}}{7}$
Solution : Given that, it is a right-angle triangle with an acute angle $x$. $\therefore$ Angle $x$ lies between $0$ to $\frac{\pi}{2}$ Given: $\sin x=\frac{3}{7}$ Squaring both sides, $\sin^2 x=\frac{9}{49}$ Since $\sin^2 x+ \cos^2 x=1$, So, $\cos^2 x=1-\frac{9}{49}$ ⇒ $\cos x =\frac{2\sqrt {10}}{7}$ Hence, the correct answer
Question : In INR 150, B buys 10 pens for INR 8 each, 10 erasers for INR 5 each and some sharpeners for INR 4 each. What is the average price per item in INR?
Option 1: 8
Option 2: 7
Option 3: 10
Option 4: 6
Correct Answer: 6
Solution : Let $x$ be the number of sharpeners he buys. According to the question, $10\times 8 + 10\times 5 + x\times 4 = 150$ ⇒ $80+50+4x = 150$ ⇒ $4x = 150 - 130 = 20$ $\therefore x = 5$ Average price of per item =
Question : Solve the following: 22 – [9 – {6 – (10 – 4 + 3 )}] ÷ 2 × 3
Option 1: 12
Option 2: 4
Option 3: 3
Option 4: 20
Correct Answer: 4
Solution : 22 – [9 – {6 – (10 – 4 + 3 )}] ÷ 2 × 3 = 22 – [9 – {6 – (9)}] ÷ 2 × 3 = 22 – [9 + 3] ÷ 2 × 3 = 22 – [12] ÷ 2 ×

Question : A wholesaler had 200 dozen of mangoes. He sold some of these mangoes at 20% profit and the rest at 10% profit so he made 13% profit on selling all the mangoes. How many mangoes (in dozens) did he sell at 20% profit?
Option 1: 140
Option 2: 60
Option 3: 80
Option 4: 120
Correct Answer: 60
Solution : Let the number of dozens of mangoes sold at $20\%$ profit as $x$ and the number of dozens sold at $10\%$ profit as $(200 - x)$. Given that the wholesaler made a total profit of $13\%$ on selling all the mangoes. ⇒ $0.20x + 0.10(200
