Solutions (1-5)

1. (1)

Reqd. fund= (15-5)% of 500 lakh =50 lakh

2. (5)
Reqd. remaining amount = 45% of 500 – 20% of 500 = Rs. 125 lakh

3. (1)
Reqd. percentage = (15/35) ×100= 43%

4. (3)
Reqd. amount =  30% of 500 lakh = 150 lakh

5. (4)

Pune 500 460 960
Nagpur 205 230 435
Total 2160 1840 4000

6. (3)
Required ratio = 460 : 500 = 23 : 25

7. (2)
Required average = (410 + 540 + 205) / 3 = 385

8. (1)
Required number = 2/3 of (115 + 230) = 230
