IBPS RRB Mains 2016-17 (Important Questions-2)




















1. The area of a rectangle is 336 square centimeter. Breadth of the rectangle is four times the radius of a circle. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 80 cm, then the radius of the circle is ?

A. 5 cm
B. 4 cm
C. 3 cm
D. 2 cm
E. None of these

Sol. Lets assume the length to be 'l'
And breadth to be 'b'.

According to the question,

l*b = 336

and

2(l+b) = 80

Solving , b = 12 cm

Thus, radius of the circle = b/4 = 12/4 = 3cm.

2. Three dices are rolled simultaneously then find the probability that none of them have all same numbers ?

A. 35/36
B. 1/36
C. 5/36
D. 1/216
E. None of these

Sol. Total number of cases = 6*6*6 = 216
No. of cases where all have same numbers = 6
Number of favorable cases = (216 - 6) = 210

Thus, required probability = 210/216 = 35/36.

3. A can do a piece of work in 10 days and B can do the same work in 15 days. They work together for 3 days then B left. Find in how many days A finish the remaining work ?

A. 4 
B. 3
C. 5
D. 6
E. None of these

Sol. In 1 day working together they finish, 1/10 + 1/15 = 1/6th work.
In 3 days they will finish, = 1*3/6 = 1/2th work
Work remaining, to be done by A alone is  = 1/2th work

A finihes the whole work in = 10 days
Thus, A will finish 1/2th work in = 10/2 = 5 days.

4. An item was sold for Rss 2750. But if it was sold for 10% less, it would still made 10% profit. What is the cost price of the item ?

A. 2250
B. 2350
C. 2450
D. 2150
E. None of these

Sol. 10% 0f 2750 = Rs 275
Selling Price = 2750 - 275 = Rs 2475

Cost price = (2475*100)/(100+10) = Rs 2250.

5. In an exam, 10% boys and 10% girls passed. Number of boys is 100 and number of girls is 90. What is the percentage of candidates passed ?

A. 90
B. 80
C. 10
D. 20
E. None of these

Sol. No. of boys = 10% of 100 = 10
No. of girls = 10% of 90 = 9

Total candidates passed = 10 + 9 = 19

Percentage Failed = (1 - 19/190)*100 = 90%.

A. 136
B. 135
C. 137
D. 138
E. 141

Sol. 20 - 7 = 13
       46 - 20 = 26
       85 - 46 = 39
     
   Thus, 85 + 52 = 137.

2. 4, 13, 40, 121, _, 1093

A. 365
B. 364
C. 366
D. 368
E. None of these

Sol. 13 - 4 = 9
     40 - 13= 27
    121 - 40= 81
  
Thus, 121 + 243 = 364.

3. 17, 18, 14, 23, 7, _

A. 30
B. 32
C. 33
D. 36
E. 39

Sol. 18 - 17 = 1
     14 - 18 =-4
     23 - 14 = 9
      7 - 23 =-16

Thus, 7 + 25 = 32.

4. 2180, 2179, 2152, 2027, _

A. 1780
B. 1684
C. 1500

E. None of these

Sol. 2179 - 2180 =-1
     2152 - 2179 =-27
     2027 - 2152 =-125

Thus, 2027 - 343 = 1684.

5. 6, 10, 19, 32, 48, _

A. 64
B. 65
C. 66
D. 67
E. 68

Sol. 10 - 6 = 4
     19 - 10= 9
     32 - 19= 13
     48 - 32= 16

     9 - 4 = 5
    13 - 9 = 4
    16 - 13= 3

Thus, 16 + 2 = 18

Therefore, 48 + 18 = 66.

6. 5 years ago the age of A was one-third the age of B, and sum of their present ages is 70. Then find the age of A, 5 years after ?

A. 15
B. 20
C. 25
D. 30
E. None of these

Sol. Lets assume B's age 5 years ago be 'x'
Then A's age 5 years ago was x/3

According to the question, 

x + 5 + x/3 + 5 = 70

Solving, x = 45

Thus, A's present age = 45/3 + 5 = 20
A's age 5 years after = 20 + 5 = 25 years. 

7. If 40% of X is added to Y, the resultant is one-fifth more than Y. Calculate ratio X:Y ?

A. 2:3
B. 1:2
C. 3:4
D. 1:4
E. 1:5

Sol. According to the question, 

0.4X + Y = Y + Y/5

Solving, X/Y = 1/2
Thus, X:Y = 1:2.

8. Shiya's income is 25% more than Aman, and if each save 1/3 of their incomes, and total of their savings is Rs 11000. What is the difference in their incomes ?

E. None of these

Sol. Lets assume Aman's income be 'x'
Then, Shiya's income is 1.25x

According to the question,

1.25x/3 + x/3 = 11000

Solving, x = 14666.67

Difference in incomes = 0.25*14666.67 = Rs 3666.67
