4. (D) Let the number of first class tickets = x
No. of 2nd class tickets = 18 x
ATQ,
10x + 4(18 x) = 110
x = 8
2nd class tickets = 10
New cost = 10 10 + 3 38 = 124
5. (C) 1 candle is made up from 9 stubs.
Hence, 116 candles will be made from 1044
stubs.
From 116 candles, 12 candles can be made
with 8 stubs left.
Now, total stubs left = (12 + 8) = 20 out of
which two candles can be made with 2
stubs left.
Maximum number of candles that can be
made.
= 116 + 12 + 2 = 130

7. (D) Let 2

divisible by a number n.
Then, (2
96
+ 1) = (x

= (x + 1) (x
2
x + 1)
which is clearly divisible by n as (x + 1) is
divisible by n.

Here, 25th term is the first negative term

10. (D)
From the diagram, it is given that
a + x = 40; b + x = 40
c + x = 30 a + b + c + 3x = 100 (i)
Since no students have failed in all the 3
subjects,
p + q + r + a + b + c + x = 150
p + q + r + 110 2x = 150
[From (i), a + b + c + x = 110 2x]
p + q + r = 150 110 + 2x
p + q + r = 150 110 + 20
[x = 10, given]
p + q + r = 60
Hence, the required number of students
is 60.
11. (C) Let ages of A and B be x and y, respectively.
Therefore,
x y = 3 ... (i)
Age of D = 2 age of A = 2x.
Age of C =
2
1
age of B =

y
So, 2x

y
= 30
4x y = 60 ... (ii)
Subtracting Eq. (ii) from Eq. (i), we get
3x = 57
x = 19
y = 16
Then,
So, age of A = 19 yrs and age of B = 16yrs.

18. (B) Relative speed of man and woman is
(4 + 5) = 9 miles /h
Hence, time required to cover 81 miles
=

In 9 h, the women will travel

36. (D) After selling at 15 per kg. Ramshukh
earns a profit of 66.66%.
Therefore, cost price of rasgulla is 9/kg.
Now, ratio of flour and sugar is 5 : 3.
Therefore, 1 kg of rasgulla is made up of
8
5
kg of flour and
8
3
of sugar.
Let price of 1 kg of flour = 3k
and price of 1 kg of sugar = 7k
Price of 1 kg of rasgulla

100 = 25 days
Now, Rahim is 50% as efficient as Ram.
Time taken by Rahim to complete the
work = 50
And since Rachel is 50% as efficient as
Rahim.
Time taken by Rahim to complete
the work = 100
Ram, Rahim and Rachel together
will complete.
