ANSWERS

1.  (2) 
Let CP = a,   SP = 1.2 a
New CP = 0.8 a
New SP = 1.2 × 0.8 a = 0.96 a
                 1.2a – 0.96a = 264
                 0.24a = 264
                 a = 1100
2.  (1) 
Let Principal = P
Compound interest at 20% per annum for 2 years      
= 44% of P  (20 + 20 + 4)
44% of P = 880
P = 2000
Simple Interest for 4 years at 10% per annum  = 40% of 2000 = 800

3.  (5)
Govind’s monthly expanses = 64000
Ratan’s monthly expenses = 64000 + 30% of 64000
= 83,200
Raman’s monthly expenses = 6 × 83,200 = 4, 99,200
Raman’s annual expenses = 59, 90,400

4.  (2)
Total number of teachers in school = 5200
Number of male teachers = 45% of 5200 = 2340
Number of male teachers who are less than 30 years =  
30% of 2340 = 702

5.  (5)

6. (4)
