1 rupee = 100 paise
For a profit of 30%, he sells 13 pens in 100 + 30 = 130 paise

Option 1: 10.5

Option 2: 16.8

Option 4: 19.6

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 16.8


Solution : Given:
84, 42, 28, 21, ?

Let's apply the pattern –
84 ÷ (1 + $\frac{1}{1}$) = 42; 42 ÷ (1 + $\frac{1}{2}$) = 28; 28 ÷ (1 + $\frac{1}{3}$) = 21; 21 ÷ (1 + $\frac{1}{4}$) = 16.8

So, 16.8 is the missing term

Question : The value of $\tan1° \tan2° \tan3°...\tan89°$ is:

Option 1: $1$

Option 2: $0$

Option 3: $\sqrt{3}$

Option 4: $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $1$


Solution : $\tan1° \tan2° \tan3°...\tan89°$
$= \tan1° \tan2° \tan3°...\tan45°...\tan(90-3)°\tan(90-2)°\tan(90-1)°$
$=\tan1° \tan2° \tan3°...\tan45°...\cot3°\cot2°\cot1°$
As we know, $\tan\theta=\frac{1}{\cot\theta}$
So, it will cancel out all the terms except $\tan45°$.
$=\tan45°$
$= 1$
Hence, the correct answer is $1$.

Option 3: INR 9,512.45

Option 4: INR 9,466.55

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: INR 9,466.55


Solution : Let the required sum i.e. the principal, be INR P.
We have,
Principal = P, Amount = INR 9826, R = $2\frac{1}{2}$% per annum
and n = 18 months = $\frac{18}{12}$ years = $\frac{3}{2}$ years
$\text{Total Amount}=\text{Principal}×(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{\text{Time}}$
$⇒ 9826 = P(1+\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{200})^{3}$
$⇒9826=P(1+\frac{1}{80})^3$
$⇒9826=P(\frac{81}{80})^3$
$\therefore
