Options: 205 100 325 105

7. You can have registration plates of 5,4,3,2 or 1 digits
So, it's 5*4*3*2*1 + 5*4*3*2 + 5*4*3 +5*4 + 5
=120 + 120 + 60 + 20 +5
=> 325

8. A merchant buys 20kg of wheat at rs.30.00 per kg and 40kg wheat at rs.25.00 per kg.He mixes them and sell one third of the mixture at rs.26.00 per kg. The price at which the merchant should sell the remaining mixture so that he may earn a profit of 25% on his whole outlay is
Total cp = 20 * 30 + 40*25= 1600
Sp = 125/100 * 1600= 2000
Sp for 20kg mix = 26*20 =520
Rem sp = 2000-520 = 1480
As this sp is for 40 kg = 1480 / 40 = Rs37

38. Roy is now 4 year older than Erik and half of that amount than Lewis. If in two years Roy will be twice as old as Erick, then in two year what would be Roy age multiplied by Lewis age??
Ans is 48
Firstly two equations from 1st sentence...
Suppose Roy=x, Erik=y, Lewis=z
So x=y+4.... (1)
2nd is x=z+2... (2) (Roy is now 4 year older than Erik and half of that amount than Lewis so 4/2=2)
Also after 2 years Erik and Roy relation will b
X+2=2(y+2)... (3)
So put this into 1st equation. U will get y=2...
And then x=6, z=4(by substituting other)
Now asking multiplication after two years of Roy n Lewis is (6+2)*(4+2) =48...

Now put the value 1+2(1+2+......+99)
2+ 2*99(99+1)/2
=9902

44. In base 7, number is written only using digit0, 1, 6.a number 135in base 7 is 1*7^2+3*7+5=75in base10.what is sum of base7 numbers1234&6543in base 7? (A) 11101(B) 11110(C) 10111(D) 11011
Ans: b) 11110
Explanation:
Convert the number from base 7 to base 10
Base 7(1234) = base 10(466)
Base 7(6543) = base 10(2334)
Sum of 466 + 2334 = 2800
Convert to base 7
Base 10 (2800) ===> 11110

50. X,Y,W,Z ARE INTEGER THE EXPRESSION X-Y-Z IS EVEN&Y-W-Z ODD IF X IS EVEN THEN WHICH OF FOLLOWING IS TRUE(a)Y MUST BE ODD(b)Y-Z MUST BE ODD(c)W MUST BE ODD(d)Z MUST BE ODD
Ans. (c) W must be ODD
X-Y-Z=even and X even no.

13. A permutation is often represented by the cycles it has. For example, if we permute the
numbers in the natural order to 2 3 1 5 4, this is represented as (1 3 2) (5 4). In this the
(132) says that the first number has gone to the position 3, the third number has gone to
the position 2, and the second number has gone to position 1, and (5 4) means that the
fifth number has gone to position 4 and the fourth number has gone to position 5. The
numbers with brackets are to be read cyclically.
If a number has not changed position, it is kept as a single cycle. Thus 5 2 1 3 4 is
represented as (1345)(2).
We may apply permutations on itself If we apply the permutation (132)(54) once, we get
2 3 1 5 4. If we apply it again, we get 3 1 2 4 5 , or (1 2 3)(4) (5)
If we consider the permutation of 7 numbers (1457)(263), what is its order (how many
times must it be applied before the numbers appear in their original order)?
a. 12
b. 7
c. 7! (factorial of 7)
