collect a capital of Rs. 25 lacs. If the printed price of
one share is Rs. 100, then find the number of shares
circulated by the company.
a Status: Right

I 25000
•
30000
15000
Solution
Given:
The total price of shares = Rs. 2500000
Price of one share = Rs. 100
concept used:
Number of shares= Total price of shares/Price of
one share
calculation:
The total price of shares = Rs. 2500000
Price of one share = Rs. 100
Number of shares= Total price of shares/Price of
one share
,.. Number of shares = 2500000/100 = Rs. 25000
:. The number of shares circulated by the
company is 25000.

Given below are two statements
Statement I: A culture of bacteria quadruples every
hour. If a bottle with these bacteria was half-full at
7 am, then at 6 am on the same day, the bottle
was one-eighth full.
Statement II: The average of the first 31 natural
numbers is 16.5.
In light of the above statements, choose the
correct answer from the options given below
a Status: Right
Both statement I and Statement II are false
Both statement I and statement II are true
statement I is false but Statement II is true
Statement I is true but Statement II is false 0
Solution
Given:
There are two statements given in the following
question.
Formula used:
11
sum of 'n' natural numbers = <•~+1)
calculation:
A culture of bacteria qua:druples every hour.
[ Quadruple means four times]
The bottle with these bacteria was half-full at 7
am.
The quantity of bacteria at 6 am on the same day
= (1/2)/4 of the bottle= 1/8 of the bottle
T hen at 6 am on the same day, the bottle was
one-eighth full. Hence, the statement I is true.
31 3 1
The sum of first 31 natural numbers= --( 2
1+ -) -
(31 >< 32)/2 = 496
The average of the first 31 natural numbers =
496/31 = 16
Hence, the statement II is false.
Therefore, Statement I is true but Statement II is
false.

to that of B. What is the average weight of A, B, c, D,
Eand F?

cannot be determined as data is
inadequate 0
Solution
Given:
Average weight of A, B, Cis 40 kg.
The average weight of B, D, Els 42 kg.
The weight of Fls equal to that of B.
Calculation:
(A+ B + C)/3 = 40
A+ B + C = 120 -------(1.)
(B + D + E)/3 = 42
B + D + E = 126 --------(2.)
As B = F, so we can write F in place of B in equation
(2.)
We get, F + D + E = 126 -------(3.)
Adding equation (1.) and (3.), we get
A + B + C + D + E + F = 120 + 126
A + B + C + D + E + F = 246
Avereage weight of A, B, c, D, E and F = 246 / 6 = 41
Hence, option 3 is correct.

Solution
Given:
The average score of a batsman after his 50th
innings was 46.4
Formula used:
Average= sum of all number/Total number of
values
Calculation:
Let the runs after 50th innings be x
And the runs after 60th innings bey
... x/50 = 46.4
=> X = 2320 ----(1)
And Y the runs after 60th innings,
... y/60 = (46.4 + 2.6)
... y = 2940 ----(2)
subtract form equation(2) to equation(l);
=> X - y = 2940 - 2320
=> X -y = 620
620 is the runs scored by batsman in last 10
innings,
Average score= 620/10
... 62
:. The average score in the last ten innings is 62.

The average age of a teacher and three students is
20 years. If all the three students are of same age
and the difference between the age of the teacher
and each student is 20 years, then what is the age
of the teacher?
u Status: Right
25 years
30 years
35 years
45 years
•
Solution
Given:
The average age of a teacher and three students
is 20 years.
Formula used:
Average = Total sum of all numbers/Number of
values
calculation:
Let the age of teachers be y.
And the age of Student be x.
Difference y = (x + 20)
According to the question:
Average age= (x + x + x + y)/4 = 20 years
.. (3x + y) = 20 x 4
.. 3x + y = 80
,.. 3X + X + 20 = 80
... 4x = 60
=> X = 15
... y = (x + 20)
=> y = 15 + 20 = 35
:. The age of the teacher is 35 years.

Solution
Given:
The average weight of their children and mother is
50 kg
The average weight of their children and father is
52 kg
Calculation:
The total sum of the weight of children and
=>
mother = 50 >< 3 = 150
=> The total sum of the weight of children and
father = 52 >< 3 = 156
=>The sum of weight of the children =156 - 60 =
96 kg
=> The weight of the mother= 150 - 96 = 54 kg
:. The required result will be 54 kg.
