Question : If 20% of (A + B) = 30% of (A − B), then what percentage of B is equal to A?

Option 1: 400%

Option 2: 300%

Option 3: 500%

Option 4: 100%

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 500%


Solution : 20% of (A + B) = 30% of (A − B)
⇒ 20% of A + 20% of B = 30% of A – 30% of B
⇒ 10% of A = 50% of B
$\therefore$ A = 500% of B
Hence, the correct answer

Question : If $x=\frac{4\sqrt{ab}}{\sqrt a+ \sqrt b}$, then what is the value of $\frac{x+2\sqrt{a}}{x-2\sqrt a}+\frac{x+2\sqrt{b}}{x-2\sqrt b}$(when $a\neq b$)?

Option 1: 0

Option 2: 2

Option 3: 4

Option 4: $\frac{(\sqrt a+\sqrt b)}{(\sqrt a - \sqrt b)}$

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 2


Solution : Given:
$x=\frac{4\sqrt ab}{\sqrt a+\sqrt b}$
Equation $=\frac{x+2\sqrt a}{x-2\sqrt a}+\frac{x+2\sqrt b}{x-2\sqrt b}$
Put the value of $x$ in equation:
$=\frac{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}+2\sqrt{a}}{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}-2\sqrt a}+\frac{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}+2\sqrt{b}}{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}-2\sqrt b}$
$=\frac{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}+2a+2\sqrt {ab}}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}}{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}-2a-2\sqrt {ab}}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}}+\frac{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}+2\sqrt {ab}+2b}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}}{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}-2\sqrt {ab}-2b}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}}$
$=\frac{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}+2a+2\sqrt {a}b}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}}{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}-2a-2\sqrt {a}b}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}}+\frac{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}+2\sqrt {ab}+2b}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}}{\frac{4\sqrt{ab}-2\sqrt {a}b-2b}{\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}}}$
$=\frac{4\sqrt{ab}+2a+2\sqrt {a}b}{4\sqrt{ab}-2a-2\sqrt {ab}}+\frac{4\sqrt{ab}+2\sqrt {ab}+2b}{4\sqrt{ab}-2\sqrt {ab}-2b}$
$=\frac{2}{2}\left [\frac{2\sqrt{ab}+a+\sqrt {a}b}{2\sqrt{ab}-a-\sqrt {a}b} \right ]+\frac{2}{2}\left[\frac{2\sqrt{ab}+\sqrt {ab}+b}{2\sqrt{ab}-\sqrt {a}b-b}\right]$
$=\frac{3\sqrt{ab}+a}{\sqrt{ab}-a}+\frac{3\sqrt{ab}+b}{\sqrt{ab}-b}$

Question : If $x+\frac{1}{x}=\sqrt{3}$, then the value of $x^{3}+\frac{1}{x^{3}}$ is equal to:

Option 1: $1$

Option 2: $3\sqrt{3}$

Option 3: $0$

Option 4: $3$

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $0$


Solution : Given: $x+\frac{1}{x}=\sqrt{3}$
Cubing both sides we get
$(x+\frac{1}{x})^3=(\sqrt{3})^3$
⇒ $x^3+\frac{1}{x^3}+3×x×\frac{1}{x}(x+\frac{1}{x})=(3\sqrt{3})$
⇒ $x^3+\frac{1}{x^3}=3\sqrt{3}–3(x+\frac{1}{x})$
$\because x+\frac{1}{x}=\sqrt{3}$
Thus, $x^3+\frac{1}{x^3}=3\sqrt{3}–3\sqrt{3} = 0$
Hence, the correct answer is $0$.

Question : A wristwatch is sold for INR 1,200 at a profit percentage equal to its cost price. Find the cost price of the wristwatch.

Option 1: INR 400

Option 2: INR 250

Option 3: INR 350

Option 4: INR 300

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: INR 300


Solution : Let the cost price of the watch be $x$.
The selling price of the wristwatch = INR 1,200
Profit percentage = $\frac{1200-x}{x}×100$
According to the question,
$x=\frac{1200-x}{x}×100$
$⇒x^2+100x-120000=0$
$⇒x^2+400x-300x-120000=0$
$⇒(x-300)(x+400)=0$
$\therefore x=300,-400$
$x$ can't be negative, because the price of the watch can't be

Question : 15 books were sold for Rs. 2200 thereby gaining a cost price of 5 books. Find the cost price of a book:

Option 1: Rs. 110

Option 2: Rs. 200

Option 3: Rs. 210

Option 4: Rs. 230

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Solution : Let the cost price of a book be $x$.
Selling price of 15 books = Rs. 2200
Price includes the cost price of 15 books plus the gain, which is the cost price of 5 books.
According to the question,
$15x + 5x =

Question : What will be the ratio of the simple interest on 1,000 for 2 years at 5% per annum to the simple interest on the same sum for the same period at 10% per annum?

Option 1: 2 : 1

Option 2: 3 : 1

Option 3: 1 : 2

Option 4: 1 : 3

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024
