Q1. Three numbers A, B and C are in the ratio of 12 : 15 : 25. If sum of these numbers is 312, find the ratio between the difference of B and A and the difference of C and B.
(a) 3 : 7
(b) 10 : 3
(c) 3 : 10
(d) 7 : 3
(e) None of these
Q2. If A : B = 3/4, B : C = 4/5, C : D = 5/6, then A : D will be:
(a) 2 : 3
(b) 4 : 3
(c) 1 : 2
(d) 2 : 1
(e) None of these
Sol. A : B = 3 : 4, B : C = 4 : 5, C : D = 5 : 6
∴A∶B∶C∶D= 3 : 4 : 5 : 6.
Thus, A : D = 3 : 6 or, 1 : 2.
Q3. The ratio of present ages of Suresh and Mahesh is 7 : 5. If after 6 years their ages will be in the ratio of 4 : 3, the present age of Mahesh is:
(a) 32 years
(b) 36 years
(c) 30 years
(d) 35 years
(e) None of these
Q4. In a mixture of 60 litres, the ratio of milk and water is 2 : 1. What amount of water must be added to make the ratio of milk and water as 1 : 2?
(a) 75 litres
(b) 55 litres
(c) 60 litres
(d) 65 litres
(e) None of these
Sol. Here, milk = 40, water = 20
Let x litres of water is added
(20+x)/(60+x) = 2/3
x = 60 litres
Q5. Mixture of milk and water has been kept in two separate containers. Ratio of milk to water in one of the containers is 5 : 1 and that in the other container 7 : 2.

(a) 2 : 3
(b) 3 : 2
(c) 4 : 5
(d) 1 : 3
(e) None of these
Sol. a).
Q6. Seven men, five women and eight children were given as assignment of distributing 2000 books to students in a school over a period of three days. All of them distributed books on the first day. One of the second day two women and three children remained absent and on the third day three men and five children remained absent. If the ratio of the number of books distributed in a day by a man, a woman and a child was 5 : 4 : 2 respectively, a total of approximately how many books were distributed on the second day?
(a) 1000
(b) 800
(c) 650
(d) 900
(e) Cannot be determined
Sol. Let the books distributed by man, a woman and a child be 5x, 4x and 2x respectively.
∴ No. of books distributed in 1st day
= 7×5x+5×4x+8×2x=71x
No. of books distributed in 1Ind day
=7×5x+3×4x+5×2x=57x
And no. of books distributed in IIIrd day
=4×5x+5×4x+3×2x=46x
71x + 57x + 46x = 2000, x = 2000/174
57x=2000/174×57=650 (Approx.)
Q7. A sum of money is divided among A, B, C and D in the ratio 3 : 5 : 8 : 9 respectively. If the share of D Rs. 1,872 more than the share of A, then what is the total amount of money of B & C together?
(a) Rs. 4,156
(b) Rs. 4,165
(c) Rs.4,056
(d) Rs. 4,065
(e) None of these
Q8. The ratio of the incomes of two persons is 5 : 3 and that of their expenditure is 9 : 5. If they save Rs. 2600 and Rs. 1800 respectively, then their incomes are:
(a) Rs. 8000, Rs. 4800
(b) Rs. 6000, Rs. 3600
(c) Rs. 10000, Rs.60000
(d) Rs. 9000, Rs. 5400
(e) None of these
Q9. A bag contains one rupee, 50 paise and 25 paise coins in the ratio 2 : 3 : 5. Their total value is Rs. 144. The value of 50-paise coins is:
(a) Rs. 24
(b) Rs. 36
(c) Rs. 48
(d) Rs. 72
(e) None of these
Sol. Let the number of one-rupee coins, 50-paise coins and 25-paise coins be 2k, 3k and 5k, respectively.
∴ 2k × 1 + 3k × 0.50 + 5k × 0.25 = 114
⇒ 2k + 1.50k + 1.25k = 114
⇒ 4.75k = 114
⇒ k = 24.
50 paise value = 1.5x = 1.5*24 = 36
Q10. Two numbers are in the ratio 1(1/2) ∶2(2/3). When each of these is increased by 15, they become in the ratio 1(2/3) ∶2(1/2). The greater of the numbers is:
(a) 27
(b) 36
(c) 48
(d) 64
(e) None of these
