Slove:

(1000)9÷  (10)24

A) 10000

B) 1000

C) 100

(D) None of these

= (1000)9÷  (10)24

= (10³)9 ÷  (10)24   

= 1027 ÷  (10)24   

= 1027-24

= 103

= 1000

The average age of A, B, C, D, and E is 40 years. The average age of A and B is 35 years and the average of C and D is 42 years. Age of E is?

A) 48

B) 46

C) 42

D) 45

Average of A, B, C, D, E:

(A+B+C+D+E )/5 = 40 

A+B+C+D+E = 200 —- ( i )

Average of A & B:

(A+B)/2 = 35 ⇒ A+B=70 —–( ii )

Average of C & D:

(C+D)/2= 42 ⇒ C+D=84 —–( iii )

Adding equation ( ii ) and ( iii ) 

A+B+C+D= 154 —-( iv ) 

Putting value of equation ( iv ) into equation ( i )

154 + E = 200

           E= 200-154

            E = 46

 

A retailer increases the selling price by 25% due to which his profit percentage increase from 20% to 25%. What is the percentage increase in cost price?

A) 20%

B) 30%

C) 25%

D) 50%

Let,
Cost Price (CP) = Rs. 100
Profit % = 20
Selling Price (SP) = 120

When profit increases from 20% to 25%
Cost Price (CP) = y
Profit % = 25
Selling Price (SP) after 25% increase = 120 + 25% = Rs. 150


From question
y + 25 % profit = 150

1.25 y = 150
so y = 120

% change in cost price = [ (120 – 100) / 100 ] x 100 = 20%
