[ "81%", "None of above", "90%", "71%" ]
D
Explanation: Let C.P.= Rs. 100. Then, Profit = Rs. 320, S.P. = Rs. 420. New C.P. = 120% of Rs. 100 = Rs. 120 New S.P. = Rs. 420. Profit = Rs. (420 - 120) = Rs. 300 Required percentage = (300/420) * 100 = 71.40%(approx) =71% Answer: A

[ "40", "30", "20", "16" ]
C
Machine B produces 100 part in 60 minutes. Machine A produces 100 parts twice as fast as B, so Machine A produces 100 parts in 60/2=30 minutes. Now, Machine A produces 100 parts in 30 minutes which is 100/30 = 10/3 parts/minute. 10/3 parts X a total of 6 minutes = 20 A

Tom drives from town W to town B, driving at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour. From town B Tom immediately continues to town C. The distance between W and B is twice the distance between B and C. If the average speed of the whole journey was 36 mph, then what is Tom's speed driving from B to C in miles per hour?
[ "24", "30", "20", "12" ]
C
Let's assume that it takes 4 hours to go from point W to B. Then the distance between them becomes 240 which makes distance between B and C 120. (240+120)/(4+x) gives us the average speed which is 36. You find x=6. So the question simplifies itself to 120/6=20 Hence the answer is B.

[ "10", "1", "7", "5" ]

A 1 Explanation: 4 + 9 = 1 The trick to solve is to assume the first number as the time in AM and the second number is the number of hours you have to add to it. You'll find the time in PM when you do that. For example 7 AM + 7 hours = 14:00 or 2 PM 4 AM + 9 hours = 13:00 or 1 PM.

X divided by 10 gives reminder of 2. X can be 2/12/22.... X+Y divided by 5 is 4. X+Y can be 4/ 9/ 19.... If X+Y= 4 and X is 2 then Y = 2 and Y/5 will give a reminder of 2 Similarly, if X+Y= 9 and X = 2, then y/5 will give a reminder of 2 Hence the answer must be 2 (B)
