    Let share of each friend = a.
    Then, share of each daughter = 4a.
    and share of each son = 5a.
    According to the question,
    5 x 5a + 4 x 4a + 2 x a= 17200

    Correct Option: D

    Let share of each friend = a.
    Then, share of each daughter = 4a.
    and share of each son = 5a.
    According to the question,
    5 x 5a + 4 x 4a + 2 x a = 17200
    ⇒ 25x + 16x + 2x = 17200
    ⇒ 43x = 17200
    ∴ x = 17200/43 = 400
    ∴ Share of each daughter
    = 4x = 4 x 400
    = ₹ 1600

    Let at present, there are c men, then number of women = 5c
    Before the men had left
    number of men = c + 45 and number of women = 5c

    Correct Option: D

    Let at present, there are c men, then number of women = 5c
    Before the men had left
    number of men = c + 45 and
    number of women = 5c
    ∴ c + 45 = 2 x 5c
    ⇒ 9c = 45
    ∴ c = 45/9 = 5
    Hence, number of women in the beginning
    = 5c + 15 = 5 x 5 + 15
    = 25 + 15 = 40
    ∴ Double of the women = 40 x 2 = 80

  1. Bus fare between Raipur and Mirpur for one adult is six times the fare for one child. If an adult's bus fare is ₹ 114, how much amount will be paid by 4 adults and 5 children together for travelling the same distance ?








  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Adult fare = ₹ 114
    According to the question,
    child fare = Adult fare x 1/6
    = 144 x 1/6 = ₹ 19

    Correct Option: B

    Adult fare = ₹ 114
    According to the question,
    child fare = Adult fare x 1/6
    = 144 x 1/6 = ₹ 19
    ∴ Total amount paid by 4 adults and 5 children are for the same distance.
    = ₹(4 x 144 + 5 x 19)
    = ₹(456 + 95) = ₹ 551

  1. The total cost of 12 pens and 5 pencils is equal to ₹ 111. Also, the cost of 1 pencil is ₹ 5 less than the cost of 1 pen. What will be the cost of 8 pens and 9 pencils ?








  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Let the cost of 1 pencil = x
    ∴ Cost of 1 pen = (x + 5)
    According to the question,
    12(x + 5) + 5x = 111
    Solve the equation

    Correct Option: C

    Let the cost of 1 pencil = x
    ∴ Cost of 1 pen = (x + 5)
    According to the question,
    12(x + 5) + 5x = 111
    ⇒ 12x + 60 + 5x = 111
    ⇒ 17x = 111 - 60 = 51
    ⇒ x = 51/17 = 3
    ∴ Cost of 1 pencil = ₹ 3
    Cost of 1 pen = ₹ 8
    ∴ Total Cost of 8 pens and 9 pencils
    = (8 x 8 + 9 x 3)
    = ₹(64 + 27) = ₹ 91

  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Let the total amount = x
    According to the question.
    14 girls are getting x amount.
    1 girl will get x/14 amount.
    Similarly if
    18 girls are getting x amount.
    1 girl will get x/18 amount.
    according to question,
    x/14 - x/18 = 160
    Solve the equation

    Correct Option: C

    Let the total amount = x
    According to the question.
    14 girls are getting x amount.
    1 girl will get x/14 amount.
    Similarly if
    18 girls are getting x amount.
    1 girl will get x/18 amount.
    according to question,
    x/14 - x/18 = 160
    ⇒ (9x - 7x)/126 = 160
    ⇒ 2x/126 = 160
    ⇒ x/126 = 80
    ∴ x = 126 x 80 = ₹ 10080
