The per cent that represents the shaded region in the figure is:
  • $36\%$
  • B
    $64\%$
  • C
    $27\%$
  • D
    $48\%$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$36\%$
Given, total parts $= 10 \times 10 = 100$
$\therefore$ Shaded parts $= 36$
$\therefore$ Per cent of shaded parts $=\frac{36}{100}\times100\%=36\%$
Then, per cent of unshaded parts$ = 100 - 60 = 40\%$
Hence, the unshaded region is $36\%$

Amount received on $Rs. 3000$ for $2$ year at the rate of $11\%$ per annum is:
  • $Rs. 2340$
  • B
    $Rs. 3660$
  • C
    $Rs. 4320$

$Rs. 2340$
Given, $P = Rs. 3000,$
$T = 2$ year
$R = 11\%$
$\therefore\text{I}=\frac{\text{P}\times\text{R}\times\text{T}}{100}=\frac{3000\times11\times2}{100}=\text{Rs. }660$
Now, amount$(A) = P + I$
$= 3000 + 660$

The per cent that represents the unshaded region in the figure, is:
  • A
    $75\%$
  • B
    $50\%$
  • $40\%$
  • D
    $60\%$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$40\%$
Given, total parts$ = 10 \times 10 = 100$
$\therefore$ Shaded parts $= 60$
$\therefore$ Per cent of shaded parts $=\frac{60}{100}\times100\%=60\%$
Then, per cent of unshaded parts $= 100 - 60 = 40\%$
Hence, the unshaded region is $40\%$

If $90\%$ of $x$ is $315\km$, then the value of $x$ is:
  • A
    $325\ km.$
  • $350\ km.$
  • C
    $405\ km.$
  • D
    $340\ km.$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$350\ km.$
Given, $90\%$ of $x = 315\ km.$
$\Rightarrow\frac{90}{100}\times\text{x}=315\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{315\times100}{90}$
$\therefore\text{x}=350\text{km.}$

MCQ 51 Mark
A farmer bought a buffalo for $Rs. 44000$ and a cow for $Rs. 18000$. He sold the buffalo at a loss of $5\%$ but made a profit of $10\%$ on the cow. The net result of the transaction is:
  • A
    Loss of $Rs. 200$
  • B
    Profit of $Rs. 400$
  • Loss of $Rs. 400$
  • D
    Profit of $Rs. 200$
Answer
Correct option: C.
Loss of $Rs. 400$
For bufalo, $CP = Rs. = 44000$
Loss$ \% = 5\%$
$\therefore\text{Loss}\%=\frac{\text{Loss}}{\text{CP}}\times100\%$
$\Rightarrow5=\frac{\text{Loss}}{44000}\times100$
$\Rightarrow\text{Loss}=5\times440=\text{Rs.}2200$
So, $SP = CP$ - Loss $= 44000 - 2200 = Rs. 41800$
For cow, $CP = Rs. 18000$
Profit$ \% = 10\%$
$\therefore\text{Profit}\%=\frac{\text{Profit}}{\text{CP}}\times100\%$
$\Rightarrow10=\frac{\text{Profit}}{18000}\times100$
Profit $= Rs. 1800$
So, $SP = CP$ + Profit $= 18000 + 1800 = Rs. 19800$
Total $CP$ of buffalo and cow $= 44000 + 18000 = Rs. 62000$
Total $SP$ of buffalo and cow $= 41800 + 19800 = Rs. 61600$
Net loss $= CP - SP = 62000 - 61600 = Rs. 400$

  • A
    $25\%$
  • B
    $80\%$
  • $20\%$
  • D
    $75\%$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$20\%$
Let the Raman’s income be $x$. it is given that Mohan’s income is $25\%$ more than Raman’s income.
The, Mohan's income $=\text{x}+20\%\text{ of } \text{x}+\frac{25}{100}\text{x}=\text{x}\Big(1+\frac{25}{100}\Big)$
$=\text{x}\Big(\frac{100+25}{100}\Big)=\frac{125}{100}\text{x}$
$\therefore$ Raman's income as compared to Mohan's income.
$=\frac{\text{Mohan's income - Raman's income}}{\text{Mohan's income}}\times100\%$
$\frac{\frac{125}{100}\text{x-x}}{\frac{125}{100}\text{x}}\times100\%=\frac{\frac{125\text{x}-100\text{x}}{100}}{\frac{125}{100}\text{x}}\times100\%$
$=\frac{25\text{x}}{125\text{x}}\times100\%=20\%$

On selling an article for $Rs. 329,$ a dealer lost $6\%$. The cost price of the article is
  • A
    $Rs. 310.37$
  • B
    $Rs. 348.74$
  • C
    $Rs. 335$
  • $Rs. 350$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$Rs. 350$
Given, $SP = Rs. = 329$ and loss$ \% = 6 \%$
We know that,
$\text{Loss}\%=\frac{\text{Loss}}{\text{CP}}\times100$
$\Rightarrow6=\frac{\text{CP}-\text{SP}}{\text{CP}}\times100$
$[\therefore\text{Loss}=\text{CP}-\text{SP}]$
$\Rightarrow6\text{CP}=100(\text{CP-SP})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{6}{100}\text {CP} = \text{CP}-\text{SP}$
$\Rightarrow\text{CP}-\frac{6}{100}\text{CP}=329$
$[\therefore\text{SP}=\text{Rs. 329, }\text{givne}]$
$\Rightarrow\frac{94}{100}\text{CP}=329$
$\Rightarrow\text{CP}=\frac{329\times100}{94}$
$\therefore\text{CP} = \text{Rs. }350$

    $Rs. 100$
  • B
    $Rs. 1000$
  • $Rs. 900$
  • D
    $Rs. 1100$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$Rs. 900$
For Rajni, $P = Rs. 3000.$
$R = 10\% $Per annum
$T = 3$ year
$\therefore\text{I}=\frac{\text{P}\times\text{R}\times\text{T}}{100}$
$=\frac{3000\times10\times3}{100}=\text{Rs. }900$
$A = P + I = 3000 + 900 = Rs. 3900$
For Mohini, $P = Rs. 4000.$
$R = 10\%$ per annum
$\text{T}=2\frac{1}{2}\text{yr}=\frac{5}{2}\text{ year}$
$\therefore\text{I}=\frac{\text{P}\times\text{R}\times\text{T}}{100}$
$=\frac{4000\times10\times5}{100\times2}=\text{Rs. }1000$
and $A = P + I = 4000 + 1000 = Rs. 5000$
Difference in amounts $= 5000 - 3900 = Rs. 1100$
