Tick $(\checkmark)$ the correct answer:
Number of boys and girls in a class are in the ratio $7 : 5.$ The number of boys is 8 more than the number of girls. The total class strength is:
  • A
    $56$
  • B
    $52$
  • $48$
  • D
    $36$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$48$

 Let the number of boys in the class be $x.$
Then, the number of girls will be $(x - 8).$
The equation becomes:
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}}{\text{x}-8}=\frac{7}{5}$
$\Rightarrow5\text{x} = 7\text{x} - 56$
$\Rightarrow5\text{x} -7\text{x} = -56$
$\Rightarrow -2\text{x} = -56$
$\Rightarrow \text{x} = \frac{-56} {-2} = 28$
Therefore, the number of boys is $28.$
Number of girls $= ( \text{x}- 8) = 28 -8 =20$
Total strength of the class $= 28 + 20 = 48$

MCQ 551 Mark
The solution of which of the following equations is neither a fraction nor an integer:
  • A
    $3x + 2 = 5x + 2$
  • B
    $4x - 18 = 2$
  • $4x + 7 = x + 2$
  • D
    $5x - 8 = x + 4$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$4x + 7 = x + 2$
$a.$ Given linear equation is $3x + 2 = 5x + 2$
$3x - 5x = 2 - 2$
$-2x = 0$
$\frac{-2\text{x}}{-2}=\frac{0}{-2}$
$x = 0$
Hence, $x = 0$ is an integer.
$b.$ Given linear equation is
$4x - 18 = 2$
$4x = 2 + 18$
$4x = 20$
$\frac{4\text{x}}{4}=\frac{20}{4}$
$x = 5$
Hence, $x = 5$ is a positive integer.
$c.$ Given linear equation is
$4x + 7 = x + 2$
$4x - x = 2 - 7$
$3x = -5$
$\text{x}=-\frac{5}{3}$
Hence, $\text{x}=-\frac{5}{3}$ is neither a fraction nor an integer.
$d.$ Given linear equation is
$5x - 8 = x - 4$
$5x - x = 4 + 8$
$4x = 12$
$\frac{4\text{x}}{4}=\frac{12}{4}$
$x = 3$
Hence, $x = 3$ is a positive integer.
Option $(c),$ satisfies the condition.

If two angles are complementary and one angle is $10^\circ $ greater than the other, then the smaller angle of the two is:
  • $40^\circ$
  • B
    $50^\circ $
  • C
    $90^\circ$
  • D
    $180^\circ$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$40^\circ$

$ x^\circ = (90^\circ - x^\circ ) + 10^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 2x^\circ = 100^\circ $
$\Rightarrow x^\circ = 50^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 90^\circ - x^\circ = 40^\circ .$

The sum of three consecutive multiples of $7$ is $357.$ Find the smallest multiple.
  • $112$
  • B
    $126$
  • C
    $119$
  • D
    $116$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$112$

 Let the three consecutive multiplies of $7$ be $7x, (7x + 7), (7x + 14)$ where $x$ is a natural number.
According to question,
$7x + (7x + 7) + (7x + 14) = 357$
$21x + 21 = 357$
$21(x + 1) = 357$
$\frac{21(\text{x}+1)}{21}=\frac{357}{21}$
$x + 1 = 17$
$x = 17 - 1$
$x = 16$
Hence, the smallest multiple of $7$ is $7 × 16$ i.e., $112.$

Tick $(\checkmark)$ the correct answer: The sum of two numbers is $95.$ If one exceeds the other by $15,$ then the smaller of the two is:
  • $40$
  • B
    $35$
  • C
    $45$
  • D
    $55$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$40$

Let the numbers be $x$ and $x + 15.$
$\therefore x + x + 15 = 95$
$\Rightarrow 2x + 15 = 95$
$\Rightarrow 2x = 95 - 15$

$X$ and $Y$ together can do a piece of work in $8$ days, which $X$ alone can do in $12$ days. In how many days can $Y$ do the same work alone$?$
  • $24$ days
  • B
    $16$ days
  • C
    $12 $ days
  • D
    $36$ days
Answer
Correct option: A.
$24$ days

$ X's$ one day's work $=\frac{1}{12}$
Let, $Y$ work for $x$ days
$\therefore$ $Y's$ one day's work $=\frac{1}{\text{x}}$​
One day work by $X$ and $Y$ together
$\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}=\frac{1}{8}$
$\frac{1}{\text{x}}=\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{12}=\frac{1}{24}$
$\therefore x = 24$ days
$\therefore Y$ can complete work alone in $24$ days.

    $x - 2 - 5$
  • C
    $x - 5$
  • $x - 3$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$x - 3$

Given that,
Two year ago, my age was $x$ years
Therefore,
Present age $=$ age two years ago $+\ 2$
Present age $= x + 2$
What was my age $5$ years ago$?$
Age $5$ years ago $=$ present age $- 5$
Age $5$ years ago $= x + 2 - 5$
Age $5$ years ago $= x - 3$
Therefore, my age $5$ years ago is $x - 3$

If $7x + 15 = 50,$ then which of the following is the root of the equation$?$
  • A
    $-5$
  • B
    $\frac{65}{7}$
  • $5$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{5}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$5$

 Given that the equation is $7x + 15 = 50$
To find the root of the equation.
That is the root must satisfy the given equation.
Put $x = 5$ in given equation we get,
$7(5) + 15 = 50$
$35 + 15 = 50$
$50 = 50$
$\therefore 5 $ is a root.
$\therefore 5$ is the root of the given equation $7x + 15 = 50.$

Sum of two numbers is $95$. If one exceeds the other by $15,$ then the numbers are:
  • A
    $25$ and $40$
  • B
    $50$ and $65$
  • C
    $30$ and $45$
  • $40$ and $55$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$40$ and $55$

 Let the first number be $x$ and the second number be $x + 15.$
According to the question,
$x + x + 15 = 95$
$2x = 80$
$x = 40$
Hence, the first number is $40$ and the second number is $55.$

What should be added to $-\frac{7}{3}$ to get $\frac{3}{7}$?
  • A
    $\frac{47}{21}$
  • B
    $\frac{50}{21}$
  • C
    $\frac{21}{58}$
  • $\frac{58}{21}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\frac{58}{21}$

 Let the number be $x$
$-\frac{7}{3}+\text{x} =\frac{3}{7}$
$\text{x}=\frac{3}{7}+\frac{7}{3}= \frac{(9+49)}{21} = \frac{58}{21}$

Solve $\frac{\text{x}-1}{3}=\frac{\text{x}-2}{4}$:
  • A
    $-2$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $10$
  • $-10$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$-10$

 $\frac{\text{x}-1}{3}=\frac{\text{x}-2}{4}$
$\Rightarrow 4(x + 1) = 3(x - 1)$
$\Rightarrow 4x + 4 = 3x - 6$
$\Rightarrow 4x - 3x = -6 - 4$
$\Rightarrow x = -10$

If two angles are supplementary and one angle is double the other, then the larger angle is:
  • A
    $60^\circ $
  • B
    $90^\circ $
  • $120^\circ $
  • D
    $180^\circ $
Answer
Correct option: C.
$120^\circ $

$ x^\circ + 2x^\circ = 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 3x^\circ = 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow x^\circ = 60^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 2x^\circ = 120^\circ$
