Study the following information to give answer of the following questions.
Shivam is proposed to start a business of Motor-cycles store for that he wants to buy some equipment – Fan, billing counter, banners. He also wants to buy a few material related to cycle which will include Tyre, Tube, Screw-devices and Seat (Consider only these are the part of a motor-cycle). The cost of each Fan is 13.5 times the cost of a Seat and the cost of a Billing-counter is 3/5 of the cost of a Fan. The cost of Banners is 5 times the cost of a Billing-counter. The cost of a Tyre is 20% more than the cost of a Billing Counter, a Tube costs Rs.1500 more than a Fan and the Screw-devices costs 4 times a Seat. The cost of a Seat is Rs.1000.
1. Find the cost of the Motor-cycle, if the cost of a Screw-devices and a Seat increases by 20% and 15% respectively,(considering the same cost of Tube and Tyre)?

Ans:1
Cost of a seat = Rs.1000
Cost of fan = 13.5 * Cost of a seat = 13.5 * 1000 = 13500
Cost of billing counter = 3/5 * fan = 3/5 * 13500 = 8100
Cost of banner = 5 * Cost of Billing counter = 5 * 8100 = 40500
Cost of tyre = 120/100 * Cost of billing counter = 6/5 * 8100
= 9720
Cost of tube = 1500 + fan = 13500 + 1500 = 15000
Cost of screw device = 4 * cost of seat = 4 * 1000 = 4000
20% of Screw-devices = 4000*(120/100) = Rs.4800
15% of Seat= 1000*(115/100) = Rs.1150
Tube = Rs.15000
Tyre = Rs.9720
Addition we get the cost of Motor-cycle = (4800+1150+15000+9720)= Rs.30670

 

2. It was initially decided that 4 Banners will be made but later only 3 Banners and a Sticker were made. If the cost of a Sticker is 1/10 of the cost of a banners, what was the total cost incurred?

Ans:2
Cost of a seat = Rs.1000
Cost of fan = 13.5 * Cost of a seat = 13.5 * 1000 = 13500
Cost of billing counter = 3/5 * fan = 3/5 * 13500 = 8100
Cost of banner = 5 * Cost of Billing counter = 5 * 8100 = 40500
Cost of tyre = 120/100 * Cost of billing counter = 6/5 * 8100
= 9720
Cost of tube = 1500 + fan = 13500 + 1500 = 15000
Cost of screw device = 4 * cost of seat = 4 * 1000 = 4000
Cost of a sticker = 40500/10 = Rs.4050
Now, cost of three banners and one sticker = 3*40500 + 4050
= 121500 + 4050
= Rs.125550

 

3. Shivam bought 1 Fan, 1 Billing-counter and 1 Motor-cycle for himself. What was the total cost incurred to him?

Ans:1
Cost of a seat = Rs.1000
Cost of fan = 13.5 * Cost of a seat = 13.5 * 1000 = 13500
Cost of billing counter = 3/5 * fan = 3/5 * 13500 = 8100
Cost of banner = 5 * Cost of Billing counter = 5 * 8100 = 40500
Cost of tyre = 120/100 * Cost of billing counter = 6/5 * 8100
= 9720
Cost of tube = 1500 + fan = 13500 + 1500 = 15000
Cost of screw device = 4 * cost of seat = 4 * 1000 = 4000
Total cost = 13500 + 8100 + 1000 + 4000 + 9720 + 15000
= Rs.51320

 

4. What will be the total cost of 1 Fan and 2 Billing-counter together?

Ans:4
Cost of a seat = Rs.1000
Cost of fan = 13.5 * Cost of a seat = 13.5 * 1000 = 13500
Cost of billing counter = 3/5 * fan = 3/5 * 13500 = 8100
Cost of banner = 5 * Cost of Billing counter = 5 * 8100 = 40500
Cost of tyre = 120/100 * Cost of billing counter = 6/5 * 8100
= 9720
Cost of tube = 1500 + fan = 13500 + 1500 = 15000
Cost of screw device = 4 * cost of seat = 4 * 1000 = 4000
Total Cost = 13500 + (2 * 8100) = Rs.29700

 

5. Find the ratio of the cost of a Tube to the total cost of a Seat and a Screw-device together?

Ans:4
Cost of a seat = Rs.1000
Cost of fan = 13.5 * Cost of a seat = 13.5 * 1000 = 13500
Cost of billing counter = 3/5 * fan = 3/5 * 13500 = 8100
Cost of banner = 5 * Cost of Billing counter = 5 * 8100 = 40500
Cost of tyre = 120/100 * Cost of billing counter = 6/5 * 8100
= 9720
Cost of tube = 1500 + fan = 13500 + 1500 = 15000
Cost of screw device = 4 * cost of seat = 4 * 1000 = 4000
Cost of Tube = Rs.15000
Cost of Seat and Screw-devices = Rs.5000
Required ratio = 15000:5000 = 3:1

Set-50
Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below:

6. Sum of total number of boys, girls and teachers in school A is what percent of the sum of total number of boys, girls and teachers in school D?

Ans:2
Sum of total number of boys, girls and teachers in school A = 250 + 125 + 15
= 390
Sum of total number of boys, girls and teachers in school D = 275 + 100 + 14
= 389
Required percentage = 390/389 x 100 = 100.25%

 

7. Find the respective ratio between total number of boys, girls and teachers in school B and that in school C.

Ans:4
Total number of boys, girls and teachers in school B = 175 + 200 + 20 = 395
Total number of boys, girls and teachers in school C = 225 + 75 + 25 = 325
Required ratio = 395:325 = 79:65

 

8. Find the difference between total number of boys and total number of girls from all the schools together.

Ans:2
Total number of boys from all the schools together
= 250 + 175 + 225 + 275 + 125 + 200 = 1250
Total number of girls from all the schools together
= 125 + 200 + 75 + 100 + 225 + 175 = 900
Required difference = 1250 – 900 = 350

 

9. Total number of boys, girls and teachers of school E is what percent more/less than the total number of boys, girls and teachers of school F?

Ans:1
Total number of boys, girls and teachers of school E = 125 + 225 + 26 = 376
Total number of boys, girls and teachers of school F = 200 + 175 + 30 = 405
Required percentage = (405 – 376)/405 x 100 = 7.16% less

 

10. Find the sum of total number of teachers from all the schools together and total number of students of schools A and C.

Ans:4
Total number of teachers from all the schools together
= 15 + 20 + 25 + 14 + 26 + 30 = 130
Total number of students of school A = 250 + 125 = 375
Total number of students of school C = 225 + 75 = 300
Required sum = 130 + 375 + 300 = 805
