1.  (c);     Sonu’s monthly income = Rs  = Rs 16000

Let the Rajiv’s monthly income be Rs x

Now, according to the question,

or, 4x = 8000 × 7

or, x =  = 14000

  Rajiv’s monthly income = Rs 14000

2.  (c).  Let the side of the square be a.

              Length of the rectangle = 

              Radius of the circle = a

              Circumference of the circle = 2πa = 132

              a =  = 21

               Now, area of the rectangle = lenght × breadth

               =  × 21 × 8 = 100.8 sq. cm

3.       (b).               

4.       (a). Present age of Rehana = 85 – 7 = 78 years

                 Present age of Wasim = 78 – 12 = 66 years

                 Present age of Manoj =  × 66 = 18 years

                 Present age of Manoj’s father = 18 + 25 = 43 years

5.       (b).  Suresh’s monthly income = 1.2 × 22000 = ` 26400

                 Dinesh’s monthly income = 26400 × 4 = ` 105600

6.       (a). 

7.       (c) : Originally, let the number of boys and girls in the college be 7x and 8x respectively.

         Their increased number is (120% of 7x) and (110% of 8x).

          => [120/100 x 7x] and [110/100 x 8x]

          => 42x/5 and 44x/5

          => The required ratio = 42x/5 : 44x/ 5] = 21 : 22

8.       (c)

9.       (a)             

10.   (d)
