SECTION-III: NUMERIC ABILITY

91: Option b
The smallest number is 3. All the other numbers are (LCM of 6 and 7) + 3 or (any multiple of the LCM) +
3
ie 3, 45, 87, 129, and so on.
The largest such number is 465 and all such numbers will form an AP.
465 = 3 + (n-1) x 42
CP/16/C01
Therefore, (n-1) x 42 = 462
n-1 = 11
n=12.
92: Option d
For any 2 given numbers, product of the numbers = product of HCF and LCM
12 x Y = 96 x 4
Y = 32
93: Option a
12.5% is the equivalent of 1/8.
Therefore, if B is 8, then A will be 9.
Required value = [(8-9)/9] x 100
= -100/9 = -11.11%
94: Option c
66.66% of a number = 2/3rd of the number.
2/3 of N 1/3 of N = 20
1/3 of N = 20
N = 60.
When 60 is divided by 7, the remainder obtained = 4.
95: Option a
SP of the item = 200 x 0.75 = Rs.150
Now as per the question, CP x 125/100 = SP
CP x 125/100 = 150
Therefore, CP = Rs.120
Profit = 150-120 = Rs.30
CP/16/C01
96: Option d
If 1 gram costs Rs 1. Then 900 gms = Rs 900 and 1000 grms = 1000
Now if he sells 1000gms at 20% markup, then SP = 1200
But actually he sells 900 gms = Rs 900
Thus, profit% = (300/900) * 100 = 33.33%
97: Option a
SI earned for 2 years = Rs.700
SI earned for 1 year = Rs.350
CI earned for the 1st year = Rs.350
CI earned in the 2nd year = 350x1.06 = 35x10.6 = Rs.371
Total CI earned = Rs.350+Rs.371 = Rs.721/98: Option b
Total amount to be deducted = Rs.60+50+40 = Rs.150
Remaining amount = Rs.650
This will be in the ratio 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/4 = 6:4:3
Share of B = (4/13) of 650 = Rs.200
Original share of B = Rs.200+50 = Rs.250
99: Option d
240/(S-5) = 12
S-5 = 20
or, S = 25 m/sec
Time taken by the train to cross a platform of length 100 m = (240+100)/25
= 340/25 = 68/5 = 13.6 sec
100: Option a
CP/16/C01
Let x be the speed of the stream. Then,
(7-x) / (7+x) = 3/4
28-4x = 21+3x
7x = 7
x = 1 kmph
101: Option a
Initial total of the marks = 35 x 6 = 210 marks
Let the marks of the new person be y. Therefore,
(210 + y) / 7 = 37.5
210 + y = 262.5
y = 52.2 marks.
102: Option a
Let their ages be 4x and x respectively. Therefore,
(4x+11)/(x+11) = 13/6
24x+66 = 13x+143
11x = 77
x=7
8 years ago, their ages were 28 and 7 years respectively.
Present age of the daughter = 15 years
103: Option b
24 units
A+B = 12 days 2 units
A+B+C = 8 days
3 units
C alone can do 1 unit per day.
CP/16/C01
C can do the entire work alone in 24 days and so C can do half the work in 12 days.
104: Option b
28 units
Pipe
28 hours
1 unit fill
Leak
14 hours
2 units empty
The leak will work alone for 5 hours.

Total work done = 10 units empty.
Remaining work to be done = 28-10 = 18 units.
Now if both are working, 1 unit will get emptied every hour.
The tank will get emptied in 18 hours.
Total time taken for the tank to get emptied = 5+18 = 23 hours.
105: Option c
There are 2 cases possible:
Case 1: Last digit is 0.
5 ways x 4 ways x digit 0 = 20 numbers
Case 2: Last digit is 2 or 4.
4 ways x 4 ways x 2 ways = 32 numbers
Total = 20+32 = 52 numbers
106: Option c
As per the problem, nC2 = 78
Therefore, n(n-1)/2 = 78
Therefore, n(n-1) = 156
Solving we get n=13
107: Option d
CP/16/C01
The difference between the divisor and the remainder is 2.
Required answer is multiple of the LCM of the divisors 2.
= 105-2 = 103
Sum of the digits of S = 1+3 = 4
108: Option a
-20+x-20x/100 = -24
80x/100 = -4
x= -5%
109: Option c
Use options: If CP is 500. Then S.P. = 550 (making 10% profit)
Now, if CP is reduced by 60, then new C.P.= 440
As, S.P = 550, so profit% = (110/440)*100 = 25%
110: Option b
Use successive change for 5% and 5% as half yearly rate will be 10/2 = 5%

The basis of coding is one from the back and the next alphabet from the front with coding on the basis of
increasing differences.
SOLUTION from 176 to 180 : A is in Row X. So, G is not in Row X. E sat in Row Z. As, B sat only
with F, so B and F sat in Row Y. B is a male i.e. a boy, thus F is a girl. Also, G cannot seat in Rox Y. So,
G seats in Row Z. The following is the situation
Row X: A ,D
Row Y : B (male), F (female)
Row Z : E ,G(female)
C (male) can be either in Row X or Row Y. The sex of A, D and E is unknown.
176: If C (male) is in Row Z, then one of A and D is a girl. The other two girls are F and G. E may be a
boy or a girl. Thus, there could be 3 or 4 girls.
177: G is definitely in Row Z.
178: Depending on the position of C, either Row X or Row Z would have three seats.
179: Option (b) has a girl G. In option (c), since A and D are in same row and C is a male, so one of A
and D has to be a female. Option (a) is a possible set.
180: If D, F, A and G are girls. Then C has to be in Row X to fulfill the condition of at least one boy. In
this case, E will be a boy in Row Z. However, we get a unique combination of seating i.e. 1 way.
