Question : A man bought an article and sold it at a gain of 10%. If he had bought the article at 20% less and sold it for INR 1,000 more, he would have made a profit of 40%. The cost price of the article (in INR) is:
Option 1: 50,000
Option 2: 60,000
Option 3: 40,000
Option 4: 25,000
Correct Answer: 50,000
Solution : Here cost price is denoted by CP, selling price is denoted by SP. Let the original CP of the article be $x$. Case 1: SP = $\frac{{100 + \text{Profit%}}}{{100}} \times$ CP ⇒ SP = $\frac{{100 + 10\%}}{{100}} \times x$ ⇒ SP = $\frac{{11x}}{{10}}$ Case2: The
Question : Which of the following given value is greater than $\sqrt[3]{12}$?
Option 1: $\sqrt[6]{121}$
Option 2: $\sqrt[12]{33214}$
Option 3: $\sqrt[5]{60}$
Option 4: $\sqrt[9]{1500}$
Correct Answer: $\sqrt[12]{33214}$
Solution : Given number: $\sqrt[3]{12}$ $\sqrt[6]{121}$, $\sqrt[12]{33214}$ , $\sqrt[5]{60}$, $\sqrt[9]{1500}$ Now $\sqrt[6]{121}=\sqrt[6]{11^2}=\sqrt[3]{11}<\sqrt[3]{12}$ Also, $144>125$ ⇒ $125 × 12^3<144 × 12^3$ ⇒ $(5×12)^3<12^5$ ⇒ $(60)^3<12^5$ ⇒ $\sqrt[5]{60}<\sqrt[3]{12}$ Again, $1500<1728$ ⇒ $(1500)^\frac{1}{9}<(1728)^\frac{1}{9}$ ⇒ $\sqrt[9]{1500}<\sqrt[3]{12}$ Also, $33214>20736$ ⇒ $(33214)^\frac{1}{12}>(20736)^\frac{1}{12}$ ⇒ $\sqrt[12]{33214}>\sqrt[3]{12}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\sqrt[12]{33214}$.
Question : $\frac{1}{7}$+(999$\frac{692}{693})$×99 is equal to ___.
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 99000
Option 3: 99800
Option 4: 99900
Correct Answer: 99000
Solution : $\frac{1}{7}$ + (999$\frac{692}{693})$×99 = $\frac{1}{7}$ + $(\frac{692999}{693})$×99 = $\frac{1}{7}$ + $(\frac{692999}{7})$ = $\frac{693000}{7}$ = 99000 Hence, the correct answer is 99000.
Question : If $\small 1^{2}+2^{2}+3^{2}+......+\ p^{2}=\frac{p(p+1)(2p+1)}{6}$, then $\small 1^{2}+3^{2}+5^{2}+......+17^{2}$ is equal to:
Option 1: 1785
Option 2: 1700
Option 3: 980
Option 4: 969
Correct Answer: 969
Solution : Given: $1^{2}+2^{2}+3^{2}+......+p^{2}=\frac{p(p+1)(2p+1)}{6}$ So, $1^{2}+2^{2}+3^{2}+......+17^{2}=\frac{17(17+1)(2\times 17+1)}{6}$-----------------(1) Also, $2^{2}+4^{2}+6^{2}+......+16^{2}=2^{2}(1^{2}+2^{2}+3^{2}+......+8^{2})$ $⇒2^{2}+4^{2}+6^{2}+......+16^{2}=2^{2}(\frac{8(8+1)(2\times 8+1)}{6})$----------------(2) Subtracting equation (2) from equation (1), we get, $1^{2}+3^{2}+5^{2}+......+17^{2}=\frac{17(17+1)(2\times 17+1)}{6}-2^{2}(\frac{8(8+1)(2\times 8+1)}{6})$ $\therefore1^{2}+3^{2}+5^{2}+......+17^{2}= 969$ Hence, the correct answer is 969.
