Question : A sold an item to B at a gain of 25% and B sold it to C at a loss of 10%. If C paid INR 6,520 for it, then the cost price of the item for A was:

Option 1: INR 4,355$\frac{4}{9}$

Option 2: INR 6,125$\frac{1}{9}$

Option 3: INR 4,785$\frac{4}{9}$

Option 4: INR 5,795$\frac{5}{9}$

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: INR 5,795$\frac{5}{9}$


Solution : Let, the A pay for the mobile phone be $x$.
A sold the item to B at a gain of 25%
⇒ the cost price for B is $x$ + 25% of $x = x+\frac{x}{4}=\frac{5x}{4}$.
B sold the item to C at a loss

Question : A sum of INR 10,000 was invested at a rate of 10% per annum for 2 years, compounded half-yearly. Find the compound interest.

Option 1: 2,151.0625

Option 2: 2,055

Option 3: 2,255

Option 4: 2,155.0625

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 2,155.0625


Solution : Given, Principal, $P=\mathrm{INR\ }10000,$ Rate, $r=10\%=0.10,$
As it compounded half-yearly, the time will be 2 × 2 = 4 years
$\text{Total Amount, A}=\text{Principal}×(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{\text{Time}}$
⇒ $A=10000(1+\frac{\frac{10}{100}}{2})^{4}$
⇒ $A=10000(\frac{21}{20})^4$
⇒ $A=10000×\frac{441}{400}×\frac{441}{400}$
$\therefore A=12155.0625$
Now, Compound interest = Total amount – Principal = 12155.0625 – 10000 = INR

Question : If $a+\frac{1}{a}=8$, then what is the value of $\frac{1}{a^4}+a^4 ?$

Option 1: 4098

Option 2: 3846

Option 3: 3842

Option 4: 4094

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 3842


Solution : $(a + \frac{1}{a}) = 8$
Squaring both sides, we get,
⇒ $ (a^2 + \frac{1}{a^2}) + 2 = 64$
⇒ $(a^2 + \frac{1}{a^2}) = 62$
Squaring both sides again, we get,
⇒ $a^4 + \frac{1}{a^4} + 2 = 3844$
⇒ $a^4 + \frac{1}{a^4} = 3844

Question : The value of $\frac{\operatorname{sin} 58^{\circ}}{\cos 32^{\circ}}+\frac{\sin 55^{\circ} \sec 35^{\circ}}{\tan 5^{\circ} \tan 45^{\circ} \tan 85^{\circ}}$ is equal to:

Option 1: 2

Option 2: 1

Option 3: 0

Option 4: 3

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 2


Solution : Given:
$\frac{\operatorname{sin} 58^{\circ}}{\cos 32^{\circ}}+\frac{\sin 55^{\circ} \sec 35^{\circ}}{\tan 5^{\circ} \tan 45^{\circ} \tan 85^{\circ}}$
 $=\frac{\operatorname{sin} 58^{\circ}}{\cos (90^{\circ}-58^{\circ})}+\frac{\sin 55^{\circ} \cot 5^{\circ}}{\cos 35^{\circ} \tan 45^{\circ} \tan 85^{\circ}}$
 $=\frac{\operatorname{sin} 58^{\circ}}{\operatorname{sin} 58^{\circ}}+\frac{\sin 55^{\circ} \cot (90^{\circ}-85^{\circ})}{\cos (90^{\circ}-55^{\circ}) \tan 45^{\circ} \tan 85^{\circ}}$
$= 1+\frac{\sin 55^{\circ} \tan 85^{\circ}}{\sin 55^{\circ} \tan 45^{\circ} \tan 85^{\circ}}$
 $=1+\frac{1}{
