1. The difference of two numbers is 1365. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and 15 as remainder. What is the smaller number?
a)  1635
b) 270
c) 290
d) 1700
Answer: (b)
Explanation: Suppose the smaller number is x, then the larger number = (x+ 1365)
Therefore, x+1365 = 6x+ 15 5x = 1350   x = 270.
Thus, the smaller number = 270.


2. What is the smallest five digit number that is divisible by 111?
a) 10100
b) 10111
c) 10001
d) 10101
Answer: (d)
Explanation: The smallest five digit number is 10000
In 10000 ÷111 the remainder is 10. Thus By adding 101 (111-10) to 10000, 10101 is the smallest 5 digit number divisible by 111.

a) 64
b) 60
c) 55
d) 52
Answer: (a)
Explanation: The mean marks of 10 men = 70
Total marks of 10 men = 70 × 10 = 700
The mean marks of 15 women = 60
Total marks of 15 women = 60 × 15 = 900
∴ Sum of the total marks of 25 people = 700 + 900 = 1600
∴ The mean marks of all the 25 people =1600/25=64

a) Rs. 9
b) Rs. 4
c) Rs.8
d) Rs.6
Answer: (b)
Explanation: The customer pays Rs. 63 after a discount of 10%.
If the list price is Rs. x, then
X – 10% of x = 63
X = Rs. 70
Therefore, the list price = Rs. 70
The retailer buys the article at 30 % discount
= 70 – 30 % of 70
=Rs. 59 
Then the profit for the retailer = Rs. (63 -59) = Rs.4.

2 (x- 3) = x+ 3
X= 9 kmph.

(a) 12
(b) 10
(c) 15

Let the number of days Mike takes be x. So,
6:5:: 18: x
x= 5 × (18/6)
No of days= (Efficiency of Tom × No of days Tom need)/ Efficiency of Mike
x= 15 days

19. P, Q, R, S, and T are 5 consecutive even numbers. If the sum of P and S is 150, what is the sum of all the numbers?
a) 320                  
b) 340                  
c) 360                  
d) 380                  
Answer: (d)
Explanation:
P = P
Q = P + 2
R = P + 4
S = P + 6
And T = P + 8
According to question:  P + S = 150
P + P + 6 = 150
2P = 144
P = 72
Sum of all numbers = P + Q + R + S + T = 72 + 74 + 76 + 78 + 80
                             = 380
20. Find out the age of elder son if he is 4 years elder to younger son 1– years ago there were 6 members in the family and the average age of them were 29 years. At present there are 8 members as two sons were born and the average age is increased by 1 year at present.
a) 5       
b) 6      
c) 7       
d) 8
Answer: (a)
Explanation:
10 years ago total age of family
= 29 × 6 = 174 years
Total age of 5 members of family at present
= 174 + 10 × 6     = 234 years
Total age of family at present
= 8 × (29 + 1) = 8 × 30      = 240
Hence sum of age of two children
= 240 – 234 = 6 years
Hence age of elder son = 5 years
Age of Younger son = 1 year.
