Answer: D) Rs. 1,00,000 Explanation: Deepa invested Rs.50,000 for 12 months, Rs.(50000 + 20000) for 12 months and Rs.(50000 + 20000 + 20000) for 12 months.i.e, she invested Rs.50,000 for 12 months, Rs.70000 for 12 months and Rs.90000 for 12 months.Sushma invested Rs. 70000 for 2 years; i.e, Rs.70000 for 24 monthsAnd, Avanthi invested Rs.70000 for 1 year; i.e, Rs. 70000 for 12 months. Their investing ratio:Deepa : Sushma : Avanthi = (50,000 x 12 + 70000 x 12 + 90000 x 12):(70000 x 24):(70000 x 12)= (25,20,000):(16,80,000):(8,40,000) = 252:168:84 = 3:2:1 Total profit for 3 years = Rs.3,00,000Therefore, Sushma's share = Rs.(3,00,000 x 2 /(3+2+1)) = Rs.(3,00,000 x 2/6) = Rs.1,00,000.

Answer: C) 7:30 Explanation: Since S.P. = 5 (M.P. - S.P.) => 5 M.P. = 6 S.P.M.P. = (6/5) S.P.Since the percentage discount = Percentage profit,65S.P - S.P65S.P×100 = S.P -C.PC.P×100Therefore, 1/6 = (S.P/C.P) – 1 => S.P = (7/6) C.PM.P = 6/5 S.P = 6/5 x 7/6 C.P = 7/5 C.PTherefore, Ratio of discount to C.P= (M.P – S.P)/C.P = [{(7/5)C.P - (7/6)C.P} / C.P.]= 7/30   Therefore, the ratio is 7 : 30

Answer: A) 42 Explanation: Let x and y be the two parts of 96. x/7 = y/9 => x:y = 7:9 => The smallest part is = 7/16 x 96 = 42.

Answer: C) 144 Explanation: Here the series follows, 194 194 - (1x1 - 1) = 194 194 - (2x2 - 1) = 191 191 - (3x3 - 1) = 183 183 - (4x4 - 1) = 168 168 - (5x5 - 1) = 144

Answer: B) 5^8 Explanation: As the toys are distinct and not identical, For each of the 8 toys, we have three choices as to which child will receive the toy. Therefore, there are 58 ways to distribute the toys.   Hence, it is 58 and not 85.

Answer: B) A loss of Rs. 37 Explanation: As the win leads to multiplying the amount by 1.5 and loss leads to multiplying the amount by 0.5, we will multiply the initial amount by 1.5 thrice and by 0.5 thrice (in any order). The overall resultant will remain same. So final amount with the person will be (in all cases): = 64(1.5)(1.5)(1.5)(0.5)(0.5)(0.5)= Rs. 27 Hence the final result is:  64 − 27 = 37 A loss of Rs.37

Answer: A) a pair of scissors Explanation: Any of the basic mechanical devices for applying a force are called simple machines. There are 6 basic simple machines; the lever, the wheel and axle, the inclined plane, the wedge, the pulley, and the screw. Several of these simple machines are related to each other.
