Q433.
The circumference of the front wheel of a cart is 30 ft long and that of the back wheel is 36 ft long. What is the distance travelled by the cart, when the front wheel has done five more revolutions than the rear wheel ?
1) 450 ft 2) 825 ft
3) 750 ft 4) 900 ft
5)None of these
Answer : 900 ft
Explanation :
The circumference of the front wheel is 30 ft and that of the rear wheel is 36 feet.
Let, the rear wheel make n revolutions. At this time, the front wheel should have made n+5 revolutions.
As both the wheels would have covered the same distance, 
        n x 36 = (n+5) x 30
or 36n = 30n + 150
or 6n = 150
or n = 25.
So, distance covered = 25 x 36 = 900 ft

Q435.
In a certain store, the profit is 250% of the cost. If the cost increases by 20% but the selling price remains constant, approximately what percentage of the selling price is the profit ?
1) 55% 2) 60%
3) 66.66% 4) 75%
5)None of these
Answer : 66.66%
Explanation :
Let C.P.= Rs. 100. Then, Profit = Rs. 260, S.P. = Rs. 360.
New C.P. = 120 % of Rs. 100 = Rs. 120
New S.P. = Rs. 360.
Profit = Rs. (360 - 120) = Rs.240.
Required percentage = (240/360) x 100 = 66.66%

Q439.
A sum of money amounts to Rs. 9800 after 5 years and Rs. 12005 after 8 years at the same rate of simple interest. The rate of interest per annum is:
1) 5% 2) 8%
3) 12% 4) 5%
5)None of these
Answer : 12%
Explanation :
S.I. for 3 years = Rs. (12005 - 9800) = Rs. 2205.
S.I. for 5 years = [(2205/3 ) x 5 ]= Rs. 3675
Principal = Rs. (9800 - 3675) = Rs. 6125.
Hence, rate = [100 x 3675 /(6125 x 5 ) ] x 5 % = 12%
