 Cholera:

• It is a life-threatening infectious disease and a public health hazard.
• This disease was first discovered in the US during the 1800s.
• Cholera is an acute, diarrheal illness caused by infection of the intestine with the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. Hence, option 1 is correct.

Formula Used:

X% = X/100

$\rm \sqrt[3]{x}$ = cube root of x

Calculation:

⇒ 200% × 108 = x

⇒ $\frac{200}{100}$ × 108 = x

⇒ x = 108 × 2 = 216

⇒ x = 6³

⇒ $\rm \sqrt[3]{x}$ = 6

∴ The correct answer is 6.

Calculation:

The whole work is done by Ram & Shyam in 12 days

⇒ Ram & Shyam one day work = 1/12

Similarly

⇒ Ram's one-day work = 1/18

⇒ Shyam's one day work = 1/12 - 1/18 = 1/36

⇒ Shyam will do the total work in 36 days.

∴ The correct answer is 36 days.

Concept Used:

To convert from kmph to m/s multiply by 5/18

Calculation:

Using the above formula-

⇒ 180 ×$\frac{5}{18}$= 50m/s

∴ The correct answer is 50m/s

Concept Used:

LCM: Product of the greatest power of each prime factor, involved in the numbers.

Calculation:

8 = 2³

24 = 2³ × 3

34 = 2 × 17

LCM = 2³ × 3 × 17 = 408

Now multiple of 408 are

408 × 2 = 816    (not in option)

408 × 3 = 1224

∴ The correct answer is 1224.

Formula Used:

Average Speed = 2ab/(a + b)

Applicable when one travels at speed a for half the distance and speed b for the other half of the distance.

In this case, the average speed is the harmonic mean of the two speeds. On similar lines, you can modify this formula for one-third distance.

Calculation:

Using the above formula - 

⇒ a = 10 km/hr, b = 15 km/hr

⇒ Average speed = $\frac{2\times 10\times 15}{10+15}$ = 12 km/hr

∴ The correct answer is 12km/hr 

Additional Information

1. Average Speed = (a + b)/2

Applicable when one travels at speed a for half the time and speed b for another half of the time.

In this case, the average speed is the arithmetic mean of the two speeds.

2. Average Speed = 3abc/(ab + bc + ca)

Applicable when one travels at speed a for one-third of the distance, at speed b for another one-third of the distance, and at speed c for the rest of the one-third of the distance.

Shortcut Trick

Total parts = 5 + 4 = 9 ⇒ 9 parts = 1080 ⇒ 1 part = 120.

To make the ratio 1 ∶ 1, the number of girls must equal the number of boys.

Initial difference to be filled = 5 − 4 = 1 part = 120 girls.

Since 10 boys dropped out, the required number of girls decreases by 10.

Required girls = 120 − 10 = 110.

∴ The correct answer is 110.

Alternate Method

Given:

Total number of students = 1080

Initial ratio of boys to girls = 5 ∶ 4

Number of boys dropped out = 10

Required final ratio = 1 ∶ 1

Total Students = 1080

Boys: 600 Girls: 480

−10 Boys, +x Girls

Boys: 590 Girls: 480

• x

590 480 + x

Ratio 1 : 1

Calculations:

⇒ Total ratio parts = 5 + 4 = 9 parts

⇒ 9 parts = 1080 students

⇒ 1 part = 1080 ÷ 9 = 120

⇒ Initial number of boys = 5 × 120 = 600

⇒ Initial number of girls = 4 × 120 = 480

⇒ Number of boys after 10 drop out = 600 − 10 = 590

⇒ Let the number of newly admitted girls be x.

⇒ For the new ratio to be 1 ∶ 1, the new number of boys must equal the new number of girls.

⇒ 590 = 480 + x

⇒ x = 590 − 480 = 110

∴ The correct answer is 110.

Additional Information

Ratio & Proportion Basic Property

Multiplying or dividing both terms of a ratio by the same non-zero number does not change the ratio. Example: a : b = (a × k) : (b × k).

Proportion Rule

When two ratios are equal, they are in proportion. For a : b = c : d, the product of extremes equals the product of means: a × d = b × c.

Changing a Specific Component

Adding or removing a specific quantity (like adding girls or removing boys) only affects that component, changing the final ratio relative to the unchanged component.

Formula Used:

Average = Sum of observations/No. of observations

Calculation:

First, 5 consecutive even nos. are 2, 4, 6, 8 & 10 

Using the above formula -

⇒ Average = $\frac{2+4+6+8+10}{5}$

⇒ Average = $\frac{30}{5}$= 6

∴ The correct answer is 6.

Calculation:

Let the total population is x

⇒ $\frac{2}{9}$ of x  = 1980

⇒ x = $\frac{9\times 1980}{2}$ = 8910

∴ The correct answer is 8910

Formula Used:

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

Profit % = (Profit /cost price) × 100

Calculation

According to the question-

Selling price = Cost price + 20

⇒ SP = 250 + 20 = 270

⇒ Profit % = $\frac{270-250}{250}$× 100 

⇒ Profit % = 8

∴ The correct answer is 8%.

Formula Used:

X% = X/100

Calculation:

= **(**50/100) × (50/100) 

= 2500/10000

= 0.25

∴ The correct answer is 0.25.

• D will be the first sentence because it is an introductory sentence and it introduces the children of the narrator's sister:

• The sentence C suggests that the children(mentioned in the first sentence) want to go out and the narrator decided to take them to a zoo:
• ​ As they wanted to be taken out, we decided to take them to the zoo.
• In sentence A, the narrator books the taxi after deciding to go to the zoo. This will be the next sentence as the decision of going to the zoo was made in the previous sentence:

• This sentence B tells that after reaching the zoo, the narrator and his companions stand in line and wait for the permission of the guard:

• Once there lived a monkey on a rose apple tree that grew on the banks of a river.
