=========================== Q35. Mohan invested Rs 5000 in a bank which offers interest at the rate of 10% per year compounded semi-annually. How much amount will he get after 2 years? ---------------------------

1. Rs 6320 2. Rs 7000 3. Rs 6250 4. Rs 6512 5. Rs 6077

Correct Option: 5 A = P(1 + R/100)T - P Here the interest is compounded semi-annually Hence total time cycle = 2 X 2 = 4 And the effective rate of interest = 10/2=5% Hence amount = 5000(1 + 0.05)4 = Rs 6077 =========================== Q36. A alone can complete a piece of work in 25 days and A is 40% less efficiency than B, then in how many days A and B together can complete 80% of the work? ---------------------------

1. 7(1/3) days 2. 9 days 3. 7 days 4. 7.5 days 5. 8 days

Correct Option: 4 A alone con complete the work in = 25 days

So, B alone can complete the work in = 25 * 60/100 = 15 days A and B together can complete the whole work in = 1/(1/25 + 1/15) = 75/8 So, A and B together can complete 80% of work in = 80/100 * 75/8 = 7.5 days =========================== Q37.

1. Rs.2680 2. Rs.4320 3. Rs.3720 4. Rs.2840



5. Rs.3240 Correct Option: 3 Let total salary = 100x Amount spend in Food = 35% of 100x = 35x Amount invests = 30% of 100x = 30x Savings = 100x - 35x - 30x = 35x Now, 35x = 4340 x = 124 Invested amount = 30x = Rs.3720 =========================== Q39. A boat goes 90 km upstream in 4 hours 30 minutes. If the speed of stream is 4 km/h, then what is the downstream speed of the boat? ---------------------------

1. 30 km/h 2. 32 km/h 3. 28 km/h 4. 24 km/h 5. 18 km/h

Correct Option: 3 Upstream speed of boat = 90/4.5 = 20 km/h Downstream speed of boat = 20 + 4 + 4 = 28 km/h =========================== Q40. The father was 30 years old when the son was born and 15 years from now, the son will be as old as the father was when the son was 5 years old. What is the present age of father? ---------------------------

1. 42 years

2. 48 years 3. 50 years 4. 60 years 5. 45 years

Correct Option: 3 Let the present ages of father and son be 'f' years and 's' years respectively. Age of father when son was born = f - s Given, f - s = 30 Age of father when son was 5 years old = f - s + 5 So, s + 15 = f - s + 5 => s + 15 = 35 => s = 20 => f = 30 + 20 = 50 ===========================
