a milk man has 20 liters of milk . if he mixes 5 liters of water , which is freely available , in 20 liters of pure milk . if the cost of pure milk is rs . 18 per liter , then the profit of the milkman , when he sells all the mixture at cost price is :
"explanation : when the water is freely available and all the water is sold at the price of the milk , then the water gives the profit on the cost of 20 liters of milk . therefore , profit percentage = \ inline \ frac { 5 } { 20 } \ times 100 = 25 % % [ profit % = \ inline \ frac { profit } { cost \ : price } \ times 100 ] answer : b ) 25 %"

required average = ( 50.25 x 16 + 45.15 x 8 ) / ( 16 + 8 ) = ( 804 + 361.20 ) / 24 = 1165.20 / 24 = 48.55 kg answer is a

in a certain accounting class of 90 students , 70 % of the students took the final exam on the assigned day while the rest of the students took the exam on a make - up date . if the students on the assigned day had an average score of 65 % , and the students on the make - up date had an average score of 85 % , what was the average score for the entire class ?
"70 % of the students took the final exam on the assigned day - - > 0.7 * 90 = 63 students took the final exam on the assigned day , with an average score of 65 . the rest of the students took the exam on a make - up date - - > 90 - 63 = 27 students took the exam on a make - up date , with an average score of 85 . ( average score ) = ( sum of the scores ) / ( total students ) = ( 63 * 65 + 27 * 85 ) / 90 = 71 . answer : b ."

the racing magic takes 90 seconds to circle the racing track once . the charging bull makes 40 rounds of the track in an hour . if they left the starting point together , how many minutes will it take for them to meet at the starting point for the second time ?
"time taken by racing magic to make one circle = 90 seconds time taken bycharging bullto make one circle = 60 mins / 40 = 1.5 mins = 90 seconds lcm of 90 and 90 seconds = 90 seconds time taken for them to meet at the starting point for the second time = 2 * 90 sec = 180 seconds = 3 mins answer a"
