Question : If X = 600 and Y = 800, then X is how much percentage less than Y?
Option 1: 33.33%
Option 2: 25%
Option 3: 75%
Option 4: 35%
Correct Answer: 25%
Solution : Given: X = 600 and Y = 800 Required percentage = $\frac{\text{Difference}}{\text{Value of Y}}$ × 100% = $\frac{800–600}{800}$ × 100% =$\frac{200}{800}$ × 100% = 25% Hence, the correct answer is 25%.
Question : If $\sin \theta+\cos \theta=\sqrt{2} \cos \theta$, then find $\frac{\sin \theta-\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}$:
Option 1: $-\sqrt{2}$
Option 2: $-1$
Option 3: $1$
Option 4: $\sqrt{2}$
Correct Answer: $-\sqrt{2}$
Solution : Given, $\sin \theta+\cos \theta=\sqrt{2} \cos \theta$ Squaring both sides, we get $\sin^2θ+\cos^2θ+2\sinθ\cosθ=2\cos^2θ$ ⇒ $\sin^2θ−\cos^2θ+2\sinθ\cosθ=0$ Subtracting $2\sin^2θ$ both sides, we have ⇒ $−\sin^2θ−\cos^2θ+2\sinθ\cosθ=−2\sin^2θ$ ⇒ $\sin^2θ+\cos^2θ−2\sinθ\cosθ=2\sin^2θ$ ⇒ $(\cosθ−\sinθ)^2=2\sin^2θ$ ⇒ $\cosθ−\sinθ=\sqrt2\sinθ$ ⇒ $\sinθ-\cosθ=-\sqrt2\sinθ$ ⇒ $\frac{\sin \theta-\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}=\frac{-\sqrt2\sinθ}{\sinθ}$ $=-\sqrt2$ Hence, the correct answer is $-\sqrt2$

Question : A train covers a certain distance in 210 minutes at a speed of 60 km/hr. The time taken by the train, to cover the same distance at a speed of 80 km/hr is:
Option 1: $3\frac{5}{8}\ \text{hours}$
Option 2: $2\frac{5}{8}\ \text{hours}$
Option 3: $4\frac{5}{8}\ \text{hours}$
Option 4: $3\ \text{hours}$
Correct Answer: $2\frac{5}{8}\ \text{hours}$
Solution : Speed of the train = 60 km/hr Time = 210 minutes = $\frac{210}{60} = \frac{7}{2}$ hours Distance covered = 60 × $\frac{7}{2}$ = 210 km $\therefore$ Time taken at 80 km/hr $=\frac{210}{80} = \frac{21}{8} = 2\frac{5}{8}\ \text{hours}$ Hence, the correct answer is $2\frac{5}{8}\ \text{hours}$.
