Wipro Elite NLTH Aptitude Questions With Answers With Solutions
1. A number when divided by a divisor leaves a remainder of 24. When twice the original
number is divided by the same divisor, the remainder is 11. What is the value of the divisor?
A. 13
B. 59
C. 35
D. 37
Solution:
Option(D) is correct
Let the original number be 'aa'
Let the divisor be 'dd'
Let the quotient of the division of aa by dd

be 'xx'
Therefore, we can write the relation as a/d=xa/d=x and the remainder is 24.
i.e., a=dx+24a=dx+24
When twice the original number is divided by d,2ad,2a is divided by dd.

We know that a=dx+24a=dx+24. Therefore, 2a=2dx+482a=2dx+48
The problem states that (2dx+48)/d(2dx+48)/d leaves a remainder of 11.
2dx2dx is perfectly divisible by dd and will, therefore, not leave a remainder.
The remainder of 11 was obtained by dividing 48 by dd.
When 48 is divided by 37, the remainder that one will obtain is 11.
Hence, the divisor is 37.
2. The product of 4 consecutive even numbers is always divisible by:
A. 600
B. 768
C. 864
D. 384
Solution:
Option(D) is correct
To solve this question, we need to know two facts.
Fact 1:
The product of 4 consecutive numbers is always divisible by 4!.
Fact 2:
Since, we have 4 even numbers, we have an additional 2 available with each number.
Now, using both the facts, we can say that the product of 4 consecutive even numbers is always
divisible by,
=(24)×4!=(24)×4!
=16×24=16×24
=384
3. What is the minimum number of square marbles required to tile a floor of length 5 metres 78
cm and width 3 metres 74 cm?
A.
176
B.
187
C.
540
D.
748
Solution:
Option(B) is correct
The marbles used to tile the floor are square marbles.
Therefore, the length of the marble=width of the marble.the length of the marble=width of
the marble.
As we have to use whole number of marbles, the side of the square should a factor of both 5 m 78
cm and 3m 74. And it should be the highest factor of 5 m 78 cm and 3m 74.
5 m 78 cm = 578 cm and 3 m 74 cm = 374 cm.
The HCF of 578 and 374 = 34.
Hence, the side of the square is 34.
The number of such square marbles required,
=578×37434×34=578×37434×34
=17×11==17×11= 187 marbles
4. What number should be subtracted from x3+4x2−7x+12, if it is to be perfectly divisible by

x+3?
A.
42
B.
39
C.
13
D.
None of these
Solution:
Option(A) is correct
According to remainder theorem when dfracf(x)x+adfracf(x)x+a, then the remainder is f(−a)f(−a).
In this case, as x+3x+3 divides x3+4x2−7x+12–kx3+4x2−7x+12–k perfectly (kk being the number
to be subtracted), the remainder is 0 when the value of xx is substituted by -3.
i.e., (−3)3+4(−3)2−7(−3)+12−k=0(−3)3+4(−3)2−7(−3)+12−k=0
or −27+36+21+12=k−27+36+21+12=k
or k=k= 42
5. Find the remainder when 289 is divided by 89?

A.
B.
C.
87
D.
88
Solution: Option(B) is correct
When we take successive powers of 22 and find their remainders, we get the following cyclic
patterns of cycle length 1111.
viz 2,4,8,16,32,64,39,78,67,45,12,4,8,16,32,64,39,78,67,45,1
i.e 211211 leaves a remainder 11

.
Thus, 289=(211)8(2)289=(211)8(2) leaves a remainder of 2.

9. If the cost price of 20 articles is equal to the selling price of 16 articles, What is the
percentage of profit or loss that the merchant makes?
A. 20% Profit
B. 25% Loss
C. 25% Profit
D. 33.33% loss
Solution:
Option(C) is correct
Let Cost price of 1 article be Re.1.
Therefore, Cost price of 20 articles = Rs. 20.
Selling price of 16 articles = Rs. 20
Therefore, Selling price of 20 articles
=2016×20=2016×20
=25=25
Profit = Selling price - Cost price

=25−20=5=25−20=5
Percentage of profit=profit/C.P×100 Percentage of profit=profit/C.P×100
=520×100=520×100
= 25% Profit

Explanation:
Let C.P. be Rs. x and S.P. be Rs. y.
Then, 3(y - x) = (2y - x) y = 2x.
Profit = Rs. (y - x) = Rs. (2x - x) = Rs. x.
Profit % = x/x x 100 % = 100%
14. In a certain store, the profit is 320% of the cost. If the cost increases by 25% but
the selling price remains constant, approximately what percentage of the selling price is
the profit?
A. 30%
B. 70%
C. 100%
D. 250%
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let C.P.= Rs. 100. Then, Profit = Rs. 320, S.P. = Rs. 420.
New C.P. = 125% of Rs. 100 = Rs. 125
New S.P. = Rs. 420.
Profit = Rs. (420 - 125) = Rs. 295.
Required percentage = 295/ 420 x 100 %=1475/ 21 % = 70% (approximately)

which I can buy 135
pencils (90% of 150) or 45(90% of 50) pens, I bought 54 pencils and P

pens, or I could have
bought ( 54 +3P ) pencils ,
54 +3P =135, 3P = 135-54 =81, P =27
19. The selling price of 13 apples is the same as the cost price of 26
mangoes . The selling price of 16 mangoes is the same as the cost price
of 12 apples. If the profit on selling mangoes is 20%, What is the profit on
selling apples?
a. 20%
b.25%
c.40%
d. Cannot be determined
Exp. Given that S.P of 13 apples = C.P of 26 mangoes
S.P of an apple = 2*C.P of the mango
S.P of 16 mangoes = C.P of 12 apples
C.P of the apple = 4/3 *S.P of the mango
Mango Apple
C.P x 4/3*y
S.P y 2x
Given that y = 1.2x
C.P of apple = 4/3*1.2x =1.6x
Profit on each apple = (S.P – C.P)/C.P*100,
= (2x –1.6x)/1.6*100 =
0.4/1.6 *100 =25%

29. The telephone bill of a certain establishment is party fixed and partly varies as the
number of calls consumed. When in a certain month 540 calls made the bill is Rs.1800. In
another month 620 calls are consumed then the bill becomes Rs.2040. In another month
500 units are consumed due to more holidays. The bill for that month would be :
a) Rs.1560 b) Rs.1680 c) 1840 d) Rs.1950
Expl : Let the fixed amount be Rs. X and the cost of each unit be Rs. Y.
Then, 540y + x = 1800 …. And 620y + x = 2040
On subtracting (i) from (ii), we get 80y = 240 -> y = 3
Putting y = 3 in (i) we get :
540 * 3 + x = 1800 x = (1800-1620) = 180
. : Fixed charges = Rs.180, Charge per unit = Rs.3.
Total charges for consuming 500 units = 180 +(500*3) = Rs.1680

a.(3-a)/4(3+a) b.(3+a)/4(3-a) c.4(3+a)/(3-a)
d.4(3-a)/(3+a)
log12 27 = a => log 27/ log 12 = a
=> log 33 / log (3 * 22) =a
=> 3 log 3 / log 3 + 2 log 2 = a => (log 3 + 2 log 2)/ 3 log 3 = 1/a
=> (log 3/ 3 log 3) + (2 log 2/ 3 log 3) = 1/3
=> (2 log 2)/ (3 log 3) = 1/a – 1/3 = (3-a)/ 3a
=> log 2/ log 3= (3-a)/3a => log 3 = (2a/3-a)log2
log16 16 = log 16/ log 6 = log 24/ log (2*3) = 4 log 2/ (log 2 + log 3)
= 4(3-a)/ (3+a)

Required percentage = 14/70 x 100 % = 20%.

Let Cost price of 1 article be Re.1.

Therefore, Cost price of 20 articles = Rs. 20.

Selling price of 16 articles = Rs. 20

Therefore, Selling price of 20 articles

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

Percentage of profit=profit/C.P×100 ​Percentage of profit=profit/C.P×100

Number of valid votes = 80% of 7500 = 6000.

Valid votes polled by other candidate = 45% of 6000

= 45/100x 6000= 2700.

S.P. of ​x​ articles = Rs. 20.

Profit = Rs. (20 - ​x)​ .

2000 - 100​x​ = 25​x

Let C.P. be Rs. x and S.P. be Rs. y.

Then, 3(y - x) = (2y - x) y = 2x.

Profit = Rs. (y - x) = Rs. (2x - x) = Rs. x.

Profit % = x/x​ ​x​ 100 % = 100%

New C.P. = 125% of Rs. 100 = Rs. 125

New S.P. = Rs. 420.

Profit = Rs. (420 - 125) = Rs. 295.

Required percentage = 295/ 420 x 100 %=1475/ 21 % = 70% (approximately)

C.P. of 6 toffees = Re. 1

S.P. of 6 toffees = 120% of Re. 1 = 6

Cost Price (C.P.) = Rs. (4700 + 800) = Rs. 5500.

Selling Price (S.P.) = Rs. 5800.

Gain = (S.P.) - (C.P.) = Rs.(5800 - 5500) = Rs. 300.

Exp. ​Let the list price be x,

S.P =3/4X, S.P = (100 – loss%) /100*C.P = 0.9 C.P

3/4x =0.9C.P, C.P =3X/3.6
