Concept used:

Follow the BODMAS rule to solve this question, as per the order given below:

Solution:

In this particular question, 

⇒ 24 ÷ 4 × 5 - 8 × 3 + 5   

⇒ 6 × 5 - 8 × 3 + 5    

⇒ 30 - 24 + 5  

⇒ 35 - 24    

⇒ 11

Formula used:

Area of rectangle = length × breadth

Calculation:

Let the length of the rectangle be 3x

Then, according to the question breadth = 1/3 × length

Length = 3x and breadth = x

Putting the values in the formula,

⇒ 1875 = (3x) × (x)

⇒ 3x² = 1875

⇒ x² = 1875/3

⇒ x² = 625 

⇒ x = √625 = 25

The sum of length and breadth = 3x + x

⇒ 4x = 4 × 25

⇒ 100 cm

Given:

3⁹⁹

Concept Used:

Unit digit of 3ⁿ

3¹ unit digit 3

3² unit digit 9

3³ unit digit 7

3⁴ unit digit 1

3⁵ unit digit 3... 

After 4 power unit digits repeat again.

Calculation:

⇒ 3⁹⁹ = (3⁴)²⁴ × (3³)

⇒ 3⁹⁹ = (1)²⁴ × 7 = (1) × 7

Unit place = 1 × 7 = 7

∴ The place of 3⁹⁹ is 7

Calculation:

Let the total population be 100%

Then the illiterate population = 100 - literate population

The illiterate population = 100 - 40 = 60%

Now as given in the question this 60% population equals 360 people

⇒ 60% = 360

⇒ 1% = 360/60

⇒ 1% = 6

If 1% equals 6 then 100% = 600.

Given:

Number of students admitted in school S3 in 2018 = 150

Number of students admitted in school S4 in 2018 = 250

Number of students admitted in school S1 in 2017 = 250

Number of students admitted in school S2 in 2017 = 240

Formula:

x as a percentage of y = (x/y) × 100 

Calculation:

Average admission in school S3 and S4 in 2018 = (150 + 250)/2 = 400/2 = 200

Average admission in school S1 and S2 in 2017 = (250 + 240)/2 = 490/2 = 245

∴ Required percentage = (200/245) × 100 = 81.63%

Formula used:

Divisibility by 9: Sum of digits of a number should be divisible by 9.

Calculation:

In the question, the sum of digits of the number 982Y5 = 9 + 8 + 2 + Y + 5

⇒ 24 + Y

⇒ 24 + 3 = 27

So, the smallest possible value of Y which makes the digit divisible by 9 is 3

The least common multiple or LCM of two prime numbers is the product of the two numbers.

There are no factors that can be deduced thus making the least common multiple the product of the two numbers

Hence in this question, the LCM will be x × y

Given:

The speed of the first man = 20 km/h

He runs for 2 hours and then rests for 1 hour,

The speed of the second man = 25 km/h

Formula used:

Distance = Speed × time

Calculation:

Distance covered in 3 hours by first-person = 2 × 20 = 40 km.

Distance between them at 6 pm = 40 + 60 = 100 km (because in the next 4 hours he walked for 3 hours and rested 1 hour so 20 × 3 = 60km)

Time taken by 2^nd man to cover the gap = 100/25 = 4 hours

Hence, the first male is caught in 4 hours more i.e by 6 pm

Formula used:

The total surface area of the cone = πrl + πr²

Area of square = a²

Calculation:

As given in the question,

The total surface area of the cone = 11 × Area of square

The radius of the base of a cone = 14 cm

The height of the base of a cone = 48 cm

l = lateral height of the cone

⇒ l² = h² + r²

⇒ l2= 48² + 14²

⇒ l2= 2304 + 196

⇒ l2= 2500

⇒ l =√ 2500 = 50

TSA = 22/7 × 14 × 50 + 22/7 × 14 × 14

= 2816 cm²

The total surface area of the cone = 11 × Area of square

⇒ 2816 = 11 × a²

⇒ a² = 2816/11

⇒ a2 = 256

⇒ a = √256

⇒ a = 16cm

The side of the square is 16cm.

Average = sum of elements / number of elements

Given,

⇒ (s1 + s2 + s3 + s4 + s5)/5 = 650

⇒ s1 + s2 + s3 + s4 + s5 = 3250

where P = Principal, R = Rate of Interest in % per annum, and T = Time

Calculation:

S.I₁₂ = (P × 15 × 12)/100

= 180P/100

S.I13 = (P × 15 × 13)/100

= 195P/100

Difference = S.I₁₃ - S.I₁₂

⇒ 75 = 195P/100 - 180P/100

⇒ 15P/100 = 75

P= (75 × 100)/15

P = 500

Formula used:

CP = ( SP × 100 )/(100 – percentage loss)

Calculation:

Loss% of Ram on selling his cycle = 12%

Selling price of cycle = 7744

C.P = (7744 × 100)/(100 - 12)

C.P = 774400/88

C.P = 8800

Now, as given in the question, new S.P is 9000

Profit = SP - CP

Profit = 9000  - 8800

Profit = 200

Profit% = profit/CP × 100

Profit% = 200/8800 × 100

Profit% = 2.27%

Formula used:

Distance = Speed × TIme

Calculation:

As given in the question speed is 10 m/s.

To convert m/s to km/hr we multiply it with 18/5

Speed = 10 × 18/5

Speed = 36km/hr

Now putting the values in the formula mentioned above:

Distance = 32 × 36

Distance = 1152 km

Given:

Total rent of car = 7220

No.of hours used by E = 5hrs

No.of hours used by F = 8hrs

No.of hours used by D = 7hrs

Concept:

Each of their share in rent will be proportional to the time they use the car

So, 7k + 5k + 8k = 7220

⇒ 20k = 7220

k = 361

E's share in the rent = 5k = 5 × 361

E's share in the rent = 1805

Let the R's income be 100.

Q's income is 30% more than R's = 100 + 30% 0f 100 =130.

P's income is 20% more than Q's income = 130 + 20% 0f 130 = 156

P's income - R's income = 156 - 100 = 56

⇒ 156 - 100/100 = 56%

P's income is 56% more of R's income

Shortcut Trick

Let the weights of the broken pieces be 4 units, 3 units, and 2 units.

Total original weight = 4 + 3 + 2 = 9 units.

Original value = 9² = 81 units, New value = 4² + 3² + 2² = 16 + 9 + 4 = 29 units.

Loss in value = 81 − 29 = 52 units.

52 units = Rs. 18720 ⇒ 1 unit = 18720 ÷ 52 = Rs. 360.

Original value = 81 × 360 = Rs. 29160.

∴ The correct answer is Rs. 29160.

Alternate Method

Given:

Weights of broken pieces are in the ratio 4 : 3 : 2

Loss incurred = Rs. 18720

Value of diamond is directly proportional to the square of its weight

Original Weight = 9 Original Value = 81

W = 4 V = 16

W = 3 V = 9

W = 2 V = 4

Loss Calculation: New Value = 16 + 9 + 4 = 29 Loss = 81 − 29 = 52 units 52 units = Rs. 18720 1 unit = Rs. 360 81 units = Rs. 29160

Calculations:

⇒ Let the weights of the broken pieces be 4x, 3x, and 2x respectively.

⇒ Total weight of the original diamond = 4x + 3x + 2x = 9x

⇒ Since Value ∝ Weight², Original Value = k(9x)² = 81kx²

⇒ Value of broken pieces = k(4x)² + k(3x)² + k(2x)²

⇒ Total New Value = 16kx² + 9kx² + 4kx² = 29kx²

⇒ Loss in value = Original Value − Total New Value

⇒ Loss = 81kx² − 29kx² = 52kx²

⇒ Given Loss = Rs. 18720 ⇒ 52kx² = 18720

⇒ kx² = 18720 ÷ 52 = 360

⇒ Original value = 81kx² = 81 × 360 = 29160

∴ The correct answer is Rs. 29160.

Additional Information

Direct Proportion

When two quantities are directly proportional, if one quantity increases, the other increases at a constant ratio. It is written as V ∝ w² or V = kw².

Value vs Weight Problems

In questions where the value is proportional to the square of weight, breaking the object into pieces always results in a loss of total value. This is because (a + b)² > a² + b² for any positive weights.

Ratio Multiplier

When parts are given in a ratio like a : b : c, assume their actual values as ax, bx, and cx where x acts as the common base multiplier to solve equations seamlessly.

Formula used:

Work done = one day work × no. of working days

Calculation:

Let the total work done by J and k be the LCM of 40 and 60 i.e 120

The quantity of work done by J in one day = 120/40 = 3

The quantity of work done by K in one day = 120/60 = 2

Let the work be completed in x days.

The number of day J works = x

The number of day K works = x - 5  (Given)

Work done = one day work × no. of working days

Work done by J = 3 × x = 3x

Work done by K = 2 × (x - 5)

Now, according to the question:

Work done by J + work done by K = 120

⇒ 3x + 2 × (x - 5) = 120

⇒ 5x - 10 = 120 

⇒ 5x = 130

⇒ x = 26.

 

Given:

A =  total number of gold rings sold in city C2 and C4

A = 1000 + 1700

A = 2700

B = total number of gold rings sold in city C4, C5 and C6

B = 1700 + 2100 + 2500

B = 6300

A.T.Q

A is what percentage of B = (A/B) × 100

⇒ (2700/6300) × 100

⇒ .4285 × 100

⇒ 42.85%
