An article is sold at a profit of 14%. If both the cost price and selling price are Rs 132 less, the profit would be 12% more. Find the cost price.
[ "Rs268", "Rs286", "Rs296", "Rs266" ]
D
Let cost price was X. SP = X + 14% of X = 1.14X. If CP and SP were Rs. 132 less, the profit would be (14 +12)%. New, CP = ( X - 132) SP = 1.14X - 132 SP - CP = 26% of (X - 132) 1.14X - 132 - X + 132 = [26*(X -132)]/100 0.14X * 100 = 26X – 3432 14X – 26X = - 3432 12X = 3432 X = 286. So, CP was Rs 286.

A shopkeeper sells his goods at cost price but uses a faulty meter that weighs 700 grams. Find the profit percent.
[ "100/13%", "None of these", "100/19%", "100/7%" ]
D
Explanation: (100 + g) / (100 + x) = True measure / Faulty measure x = 0 true measure = 1000 faulty measure = 700 100 + g / 100 + 0 = 1000 / 700 100+g = 10/7*100 g = 300/7 % ANSWER: A

Andrea wants to fill in two sections of her backyard with sod that must be purchased in 2-x-2-foot squares. If the two sections measure 30 x 40 feet and 60 x 80 feet, how many squares of sod does she need to buy?
[ "1,000", "1,250", "1,500", "1,600" ]
C
To begin, find the area of each of the two sections by multiplying the lengths of the sides: 30 feet × 40 feet = 1,200 square feet 60 feet × 80 feet = 4,800 square feet The total area that needs sod has an area of 1,200 + 4,800 = 6,000 square feet.

When does exchange of dna segments happen between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes?
[ "during meiosis", "during crossing-over", "during diversion", "during mitosis" ]
B
During crossing-over, segments of DNA are exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. Notice how this can result in an allele (A) on one chromosome being moved to the other chromosome. The four chromatids compose the tetrad, with a chiasma at the point of exchange.

D
Because alkanes contain only C–C and C–H bonds, which are strong and not very polar (the electronegativities of C and H are similar; Figure 7.15 "Pauling Electronegativity Values of the "), they are not easily attacked by nucleophiles or electrophiles. Consequently, their reactivity is limited, and often their reaction...

Tom runs everyday for exercise and running burns 500 calories/mile. If Tom wants to lose 10 pounds, how many miles for how many days does Tom have to run in total. (Assume it takes 3000 calories to lose 1 pound of weight)
[ "15 miles for 10 days", "1 mile for 20 days", "3 miles for 10 days", "10 miles for 6 days" ]
D
It takes 3000 calories to lose 1 pound, which means it takes 30000 calories to lose 10 pounds. If running 1 mile burns 500 calories, Tom would need to run 10 miles = 5000 calories for 6 days = 5000 * 6 = 30000. None of the other answers would give 30000. Correct Option: 10 miles for 6 days.
