The correct answer is 'without few knowledge'. 

Key Points

• The erroneous Part 'without few knowledge' should be 'without any knowledge'.
• 'Few' is a quantifier used with plural countable nouns. Whereas, 'knowledge' is an uncountable noun.

• Examples: 
• Have you got any cheese? (cheese is uncountable)

The train 'A' will reach the station 'Y' at,

Time = $Distance / Speed$

Time = 60/80 = 3/4 hr = 45 min.

∴ The train 'A' will reach the station 'Y' at 11:45 a.m.

∴ To catch train 'A' at the station 'Y', the train 'B' must reach at 11:45 a.m. to the station 'Y'.

So, the train 'B' leaves the station 'X' at 11:15 a.m. and to catch the train 'A', the train 'B' must travel 60 km in 30 min (1/2 hr).

Given:

Number of articles brought = 6

The cost price of 6 articles = Rs. 8

Number of articles sold = 10

The selling price of 10 articles = Rs. 12

Concept:

First, equal the number of articles sold and brought so that the cost price of the number of articles sold can be determined. Then calculate the profit or loss percentage.

Formula used:

Loss % = [(CP - SP)/CP] × 100

Calculation:

Taking LCM of the number of articles sold and brought;

We get 30.

CP of 30 articles = 8 × 5 = Rs 40

SP of 30 articles = 12 × 3 = Rs. 36

Loss % = [(40 - 36)/40] × 100

⇒ (4/40) × 100

⇒ 100/10

⇒ 10% 

∴ His percentage of loss is 10%

Given:

MP = 120% of CP

Concept:

To sell an object with no profit no loss, it should be sold at CP. Consider the CP be 100 and then proceed.

Formula used:

If 'x' and 'y' are two numbers and y > x

then 'y' is less than 'x' in % is given by

⇒ [(y - x)/y] × 100

Calculation:

Let the CP of the object be 100.

∵ MP = 120% of CP

∴ MP = (120/100) × 100

⇒ 120.

∵ To sell the object with no profit no loss

⇒ SP = CP

∴ % less Price to sell at CP = [(MP - CP)/MP] × 100

⇒ [(120 - 100)/120] × 100

⇒ (20/120) × 100

⇒ 100/6

⇒ $16 \frac{2}{3}$%

∴ The correct answer is $16 \frac{2}{3}$%.

Shortcut TrickCalculation:

So, x : y = 6 : 5

Price decrement % = (1/6) × 100 = 16.66% ∼ $16 \frac{2}{3}$%

∴ The correct answer is $16 \frac{2}{3}$%.

Given:

Expenditure in the year 1995-96 = 5500

Profit % = 20%

Formula used:

Profit % = (Profit/Expenditure) × 100

Profit = Recipient - Expenditure

Calculation:

∵ Profit % = (Profit/Expenditure) × 100

⇒ 20 = (profit/5500) × 100

⇒ 20 = Profit/55

⇒ Profit = 55 × 20 = 1100

∴ Receipts = Expenditure + Profit

⇒ Receipts = 5500 + 1100

⇒ Receipts = 6600

∴ The correct answer is 6600.

Given:

Diameter of wheel = 49 cm

∴ Radius of wheel = 49/2 = 24.5 cm

Total distance to cover = 770 m = 77000 cm

Concept:

The distance covered by the wheel is the number of revolutions the wheel makes. The distance covered by the wheel in one revolution is the measure of its circumference.

Formula used:

Circumference of circle = 2πr

Number of revolution taken = Total distance/Circumference

Calculation:

∵ Circumference of circle = 2πr

⇒ 2 × (22/7) × (49/2)

⇒ 154 cm

∴ Number of revolution taken by the wheel = 77000/154

⇒ 500 revolutions 

∴ The correct answer is 500 revolutions.

Given:

cosec²x - 2 = 0

Formula used:

Calculation:

∵ cosec²x - 2 = 0

∴ x = 45°

Given:

Number of men working(M₁) = 10

Working Hours/day(T₁) = 5hrs

Wage earning by 10 men(W₁) = Rs. 300/day

Number of men(M₂) = 15

Working Hours/day(T₂) = 10 hrs

Formula used:

(M₁ × D₁ × T₁)/W₁ = (M₂ × T₂ × D₂)/W₂

Calculation:

∵ (M₁ × D₁ × T₁)/W₁ = (M₂ × T₂ × D₂)/W₂

⇒ (10 × 1 × 5)/300 = (15 × 10 × 1)/W₂

⇒ W₂ = (150 × 300)/50

⇒ W₂ = Rs. 900

∴ The correct answer is Rs. 900.

Given:

a + 3b = 12

ab = 9

Calculation:

∵ a + 3b = 12

⇒ a = 12 - 3b      ------(1)

∵ ab = 9

Putting the value of 'a' from (1);

⇒ (12 - 3b) × b = 9

⇒ 12b - 3b² = 9

⇒ 4b - b² = 3

⇒ b² - 4b + 3 = 0

⇒ b² - b - 3b + 3 = 0

⇒ b(b - 1) - 3(b - 1) = 0 

⇒ (b - 1) (b - 3) = 0 

∴ b - 1 = 0

⇒ b = 1

∴ b - 3 = 0

⇒ b = 3

∴ When b = 3 then a = 3

a - 3b = 3 - (3 × 3) = 3 - 9 = (-6)

When b = 1 then a = 9

a - 3b = 9 - (3 × 1) = 9 - 3 = 6

Given:

A, B, C three points.

AB = 4 cm

BC = 6 cm

AC = 10 cm

∴ No circle will pass through the points A, B, C.

Given:

Marked Price = Rs. 2000

1st Discount % = 30%

2nd discount % = 20%

3rd discount % = 10%

Calculation:

1st discount = 2000 × (30/100)

= Rs. 600

∴ Price of cooker after 1st discount = Rs. 2000 - Rs. 600

= Rs. 1400

2nd discount = 1400 × (20/100)

= Rs. 280

∴ Price of cooker after 2nd discount = Rs. 1400 - Rs. 280

= Rs. 1120

3rd Discount = 1120 × (10/100)

= Rs. 112

∴ Price of cooker after 3rd discount = Rs. 1120 - Rs. 112

= Rs. 1008

∴ Selling Price of cooker after all 3 discounts = Rs. 1008

Shortcut TrickSelling Price after all the discount 

= 2000 × (70/100) × (80/100) × (90/100)

= Rs. 1008

Given:

Rate of SI = 8% p.a.

Sum of SI for 4 years and 8 years = Rs. 960

Formula used:

SI = (Principal × Rate × Years)/100

Calculation:

Let, the Principal be 'a' Rupees.

SI for 4 years = (a × 8 × 4)/100

⇒ 32a/100

SI for 8 years = (a × 8 × 8)/100

⇒ 64a/100

Sum of SI of 4 years and 8 years = 960

⇒ (32a/100) + (64a/100) = 960

⇒ 96a/100 = 960

⇒ a = (960 × 100)/96

⇒ a = Rs. 1000

∴ The sum is Rs. 1000.

Given:

Speed1 = 12km/h

Speed2 = 18km/h

Speed3 = 24km/h

Total time taken = 13 hours

Formula used:

Speed × times = Distance

⇒ Distance/speed = times taken

Calculation:

∵ Mohan travels 3 equal distance with different speed.

 Let, the equal distance travel = a km

∴ (a/12) + (a/18) + (a/24) = 13

Taking LCM of 12, 18 and 24, we get 72.

∴ (6a/72) + (4a/72) + (3a/72) = 13

⇒ (6a + 4a + 3a)/72 = 13

⇒ 13a/72 = 13

⇒ a = (13 × 72)/13

⇒ a = 72 km

∴ Total distance travelled by him = a + a + a

= 3 × 72 = 216 km

Shortcut TrickCalculation:

So, Total time taken = (6 + 4 + 3) = 13 units = 13 hrs

Total distance = 72 × 3 = 216

∴ The correct answer is 216 km.

Given:

Sin 60° cos 30° - cos 60° sin 30° 

Formula used:

sin(A - B) = sin A cos B - cos A sin B

Trigonometric Value of sin 30° = 1/2 

Calculation:

∵ The given trigonometric equation is

Sin 60° cos 30° - cos 60° sin 30° 

It is written in the form 

sin A cos B - cos A sin B = sin(A - B)

∴ Sin 60° cos 30° - cos 60° sin 30° = sin(60° - 30°)

⇒ sin 30° 

⇒ 1/2

∴ The correct answer is 1/2.

Alternate MethodWe know that;

sin 60° = (√3)/2

sin 30° = 1/2

cos 30° = (√3)/2

cos 60° = 1/2

Put these values in the given equation:

⇒ (√3/2) × (√3/2) - (1/2) × (1/2)

⇒ (3/4) - (1/4)

⇒ (3 - 1)/4

⇒ 2/4

⇒ 1/2

∴ The correct answer is 1/2.

Shortcut Trick

Net deviation from the total average (26):

Deviation of first 15 numbers = 15 × (23 − 26) = −45

Deviation of last 8 numbers = 8 × (33 − 26) = +56

Total deviation = +56 − 45 = +11

16^th number = Average − Total deviation = 26 − 11 = 15

∴ The correct answer is 15.

Alternate Method

Given:

Average of 24 numbers = 26

Average of first 15 numbers = 23

Average of last 8 numbers = 33

Formula: Sum = Average × Number of terms

⇒ Total sum of 24 numbers = 24 × 26 = 624

⇒ Sum of first 15 numbers = 15 × 23 = 345

⇒ Sum of last 8 numbers = 8 × 33 = 264

⇒ Sum of (15 + 8) numbers = 345 + 264 = 609

⇒ 16^th number = Total sum − Sum of 23 numbers

⇒ 16^th number = 624 − 609 = 15

∴ The correct answer is 15.

Additional Information

Calculation:

∵ ∠LNX + ∠LNM = 180°      ------(Linear Pair)

⇒ ∠ LNM = 180° - ∠LNX

⇒ ∠ LNM = 180° - 117° 

⇒ ∠ LNM = 63° 

∵ In  ΔLMN;

∠L + ∠LNM + ∠M = 180°      ------(Angle sum property)

⇒ ∠L + 63° + (∠L/2) = 180° 

⇒ 2∠L + 126° + ∠L = 180° × 2

⇒ 3∠L = 360° - 126° 

⇒ 3∠L = 234° 

⇒ ∠L = 234°/3

⇒ ∠L = 78° 

∴ The correct answer is 78°.

∵ 3a secθ - b cosecθ = 8

⇒ 9b cosecθ - b cosecθ = 8      ------(From 1)

⇒ 8b cosecθ = 8

⇒ b cosecθ = 1

⇒ b = 1/cosecθ      ------(2) 

⇒ b = sinθ      ------(3)

∵ 3a secθ - b cosecθ = 8

⇒ 3a secθ - (cosecθ/cosecθ) = 8

⇒ 3a secθ - 1 = 8

⇒ 3a secθ = 9

⇒ a secθ = 3

⇒ a = 3/secθ

⇒ a = 3cosθ      ------(4)

Putting the values of 'a' and 'b' from (3) and (4) in 9b² + a² 

⇒ 9 (sinθ)² + (3cosθ)²

⇒ 9 sin²θ + 9 cos²θ 

⇒ 9(sin²θ + cos²θ)

⇒ 9 × 1

⇒ 9

∴ The correct answer is 9.

Calculation:

Let 1 - 3r + 9r² = x

So (1 + 9r² + 3r) (1 + 9r² - 3r) = 32x

⇒ (1 + 9r²)² - 9r² = 32x

⇒ 1 + 81r⁴ + 18r² - 9r² = 32x

⇒ 1 + 81r⁴ + 9r² = 32x

⇒ 256 = 32x

⇒ x = 256/32 = 8

∴ The value of 1 - 3r + 9r2 = 8
