51. Answer: A
5 years ago, the age of A and B is in the ratio =
Class A:
6:7
Total = 360
The age of B, 8 years hence = 48 years
X = 1/3 * 360 = 120
The present age of B = 40 years
Total number of students in y and z = 360 – 120
The present age of A = [(35/7) * 6] + 5 = 35
= 240
years
Y = 240 * 2/3 = 160
Given,
Z = 240 * 1/3 = 80
Let the present age of D be x,
Class B:
A + B + C + D = 29 * 4
Total = 390
35 + 40 + x + 15 + x = 116
z = 50/100 * (8x + 5x) = 6.5x
2x + 90 = 116
x = 8/(8 + 5 + 6.5) * 390 = 160
2x = 26
y = 5/8 * 160 = 100
x = 13
z = 6.5/8 * 160 = 130
The present age of D = 13 years
Class C:
Total = 2/3 * 390 = 260
57. Answer: C
x = 260 * 30/100 = 78
150/6x + 150/4x = 12.5
23
25+37.5 = 12.5x
House rent=x * 20/100=x/5
x =5
Education fee=30/100 * x=3x/10
Downstream speed = 6x = 6 * 5 = 30 kmph
Remaining=x – x/5 – 3x/10=x/2
Upstream speed = 4 * 5= 20 kmph
Shopping=x/2 * 80/100
Difference = 30 - 20 = 10 kmph
Remaining=x/2 * 20/100
x/2 * 20/100=800
58. Answer: B
x=Rs.8000
A = 1/20
B + C = 1/10
62. Answer: A
A fills in 8 hours = 8/20 = 2/5
CP = 100x
Remaining work = 1 – 2/5 = 3/5
MP = 100x * 120/100 = 120x
B filled 3/5 of the tank in 18 hours.
120x – 100 = 100x * 110/100
B alone fills the whole tank in = 5/3 * 18 = 30
x = 10
hours
CP = 100 * 10 = Rs.1000
C alone= 1/10 – 1/30 = 1/15
63. Answer: C
59. Answer: B
3a = 5a * R * 4/100
Profit ratio of A, B and C = 12000 * 12:10000 *
R = 15%
12:15000 * (12 – x)
= 144:120:(180 – 15x)
64. Answer: C
144/(444 – 15x) = 1560/3835
5x / 3x + 20 = 1/1
5772 – 195x = 4602
3x + 20 = 5x
x=6
2x = 20
x = 10 liters
Quantity of the mixture = 8 * 10 = 80 liters

The area of square (a2) = 484 cm2
Side of the square = 22 cm
65. Answer: B
Height of a triangle = 22 cm
4x + 12 – 30 / 5x + 8 – 26 = 1/2
The area of triangle = (1/2) * b * h = 176 cm2
5x – 18 = 8x – 36
(1/2) * b * 22 = 176
3x = 18
Breadth of triangle = 176/11 = 16 cm
