Correct Answer:B
Question 31 :
Solution : Since factors such as Principal, rate of interest are same
Ratio of SI is same as ratio of their time period
i.e. 6 : 9 = 2 : 3
Correct Answer:C
Question 32 :
Solution : Let A, B and C be the first, second and third nos.
Respectively.
Then, A : B = 2 : 3 and B : C = 5 : 8
Consider, A : B = 2 : 3 = 2 x 5 : 3 x 5 = 10 : 15
And B : C = 5 : 8 = 5 x 3 : 8 x 3 = 15 : 24
A : B : C = 10 : 15 : 24
Let the required number be 10x, 15x and 24x
Given, sum of three numbers = 98
Then,
10x + 15x + 24x = 98
→ 49x = 98 x = 2
→ Second number = 15x = 15 x 2 = 30
OR:
Check from options, second number must be divisible by 3 and 5.
Only 30 is the option

Question 34 :
Solution : Let the length of each train be x meters. Then, the total distance covered = (x + x)
= 2x m
Correct Answer:A
Question 35 :
Solution : Let the first term and common difference of the AP be a and d, respectively.
Now, (a + 5d) + (a + 14d)
= (a + 6d) + (a + 9d) + (a + 11d)
Or 2a + 19d = 3a + 26d
Or a + 7d = 0
i.e. 8th term is 0.
Correct Answer:B
Question 36 :
Solution : Let the numbers be x and y. then x2 – y2 = 256000 and x + y = 1000.
On dividing, we get : x + y = 256.
Solving x + y = 1000 and x – y = 256
We get : x = 628 and y = 372
Correct Answer:B
Question 37 :
Solution : h (x) = 3x3 + 3 = (3x2) (x) + 3 = f (x) g (x) + 3
Thus, for every x, the corresponding values of f (x). g (x) and h (x) differ by 3.
Correct Answer:C
Question 38 :
Solution : Given x2 + kx – 8 = 0
Let a and b be the roots of given equation and b = a2 (given)
Sum of roots = a + b = - k = a + a2 ….(1)
Toppersexam.com
Toppersexam.com
Product of roots = ab = - 8 = a3 → a = - 2
Using a = - 2 in (1), - k = - 2 + 4 = 2 or k = - 2
Correct Answer:D
Question 39 :
Solution : 3m2 – 21m + 30 = 0
Or m2 – 7m + 10 < 0
Or m2 – 5m – 2m + 10 < 0 (factorize)
Or (m – 5) – 2 (m – 5) < 0
Or (m – 2) (m – 5) < 0
Case I : m – 2 > 0 and m – 5 < 0
→ m > 2 and m < 5 → 2 < m < 5
Case II : m – 2 < 0 m – 5 < 0 → m < 2 and m > 5 nothing common
Hence, 2 < m < 5

Question 52 :
Solution : Statement (I) gives required information but statement (II) gives information in
terms of percentage. Hence (II) is not sufficient.
Correct Answer:A
Question 53 :
Solution : From (I) : We can find the side, area and perimeter of square.
From (II) : Since Perimeter x rate of fencing per meter = Total cost (in rupees)
Correct Answer:D
Question 54 :
Solution : (I) → m = 999999, n = 100000
We can find the value of (m – n) ÷ 37
(II) → m – n = known, but neither the value of ‘m’ is known nor the value of ‘n’ is known.
So, we cannot find the values of (m – n) ÷ 37
Correct Answer:A
Question 55 :
Solution : (I) → x + 10 = 34
(II) → xy = 38
Hence, only statement (1) is sufficient to answer the question.
Correct Answer:A
Question 56 :
Solution : Amount = P (1 + R/100)n
(I) → For P = 1000 and n = 1, A = Rs. 1100
R = 10%
Hence C. I. after 3 years can be calculated.
Statement (I) alone is sufficient to answer the question.
Now, since difference between S. I and C. I. for 2 years = P x (R/100)2
From (II), R can be calculated.
Hence, C. I. after 3 years can be determined.
Therefore, each statement alone is sufficient to answer the question.
