1) 105 km 
2) 110 km 
3) 100 km

1. 5

A = 8400/100 * 12 * 7/12 = 588

B = 8400/100 * 20 * 13/21 = 1040

C = 8400/100 * 14 * 5/7 = 840

D = 8400/100 * 16 * 9/14 = 864

E = 8400/100 * 12 * 5/9 = 560

F = 8400/100 * 26 * 10/21 = 1040

Hence, in school E, the no of passed students is minimum.

2. 3
Total failed = 8400/100 [20 * 8/21 + 14 * 2/7]
= 84 [160/21 + 4]
= 84 * 244/21
= 976

3. 2
Ratio = (8400/100 * 14 * 5/7) : (8400/100 * 16 * 5/14)
= 840 : 480
= 7 :4

4. 1
Afail = 8400/100 * 12 * 5/12 = 420

Epass = 8400 * 12/100 * 5/9 = 560

Required percentage = 420/560 * 100 = 75%

5. 5
Efail = 8400/100 * 12 * 4/9 = 448
Ctotal = 8400/100 * 14 = 1179

Required percentage = 448/1176 * 100 = 38%

6. 1
B can do the work in
1/[1/20 - 1/28] = 1/[7-5/140] = 70 days

A share : B share = 70 : 28 = 5 :2

B share = 8190/7 * 2 = Rs. 2340

7. 4
Let initial length be x and breath be y
Area = xy
After increment length = x + x × 300/100 = 4x
Let new breadth = y1
4x × y1 = xy
y1 = y/4
decrease in breadth = y – y/4 = 3y/4

Percentage decrease = [3y/4 * 100]/y
3y/4y * 100 = 75%

8. 3
n(S) = 16C3 = 16 * 15 * 14/3 * 2 = 560
n(E) = 4C1 * 5C1 * 7C1 = 140
P(E) = 140/560 = 1/4

9. 5
Volume = 22/7 * h/3 [R^2 + r^2 +Rr]
3256 = 22/21 * h [ 64 + 36 + 48]
3256 = 22/21 * h * 148
h = 21m

10. 3
Let the distance be x cm
x/25 - x/30 = 40/60
(6x - 5x)/150 = 2/3
x = 150 * 2/3 = 100 km
