Answer : 2. "40%"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 40% Explanation: Lets say shyam sells at 100, Since Ram sells 25% cheaper than Shyam, Therefor Ram sells at less than 25% of100 or 75 rs. Ram sells 25% dearer than Bram or 125% of Ram =100% of Bram or 125% of x (say x price of bram )=75rs.or 100% of x =60rs.hence price of bram is 60rs. now Bram's good is cheaper than Shyam's as (100-60)x100/100% or 40%. Hence Brams Good is 40% cheaper than that of Shyam's good.

Answer : 1. "30 days"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 30 days Explanation: Given K=4L -->K+L = 4L+L = 5L These 5L people can complete the work in 24 days, which means L alone can do the work in (24 x 5)=120 days. Hence, K alone can do the work in 120/4= 30 days.
Q: Tanks A and B are each in the shape of a right circular cylinder.

Answer : 3. "80%"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 80% Explanation: circumference of A = 2πr = 8 => so r = 4πvolume = π×4π2×10 = 160πcircumference of B = 2πr = 10 => so r = 5πvolume = π×5π2×8 = 200πso ratio of capacities = 160/200 = 0.8 so capacity of A will be 80% of the capacity of B.

Answer : 3. "1/221"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 1/221 Explanation: Total Combination of getting a card from 52 cards = C152 Because there is no replacement, so number of cards after getting first card= 51 Now, Combination of getting an another card= C151 Total combination of getting 2 cards from 52 cards without replacement= (C152×C151) There are total 4 Ace in stack. Combination of getting 1 Ace is = C14 Because there is no replacement, So number of cards after getting first Ace = 3 Combination of getting an another Ace = C13 Total Combination of getting 2 Ace without replacement=C14×C13 Now,Probability of getting 2 cards which are Ace =C14×C13C152×C151 = 1/221.

Answer : 4. "0.375 & 0.1"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 0.375 & 0.1 Explanation: 3/8 as a Decimal : In this we should convert the denominator into 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000,... to make it simple. Now to make 8 into 1000, we multiply numerator and denominator with 125 => 3 x 1258 x 125 = 3751000 = 0.375 1/10 as a Decimal : 1 divided into 10 parts of each 0.1. Therefore, 3/8 = 0.375 and 1/10 = 0.1 in decimals.
