Last Answer : 72÷48×8+14 = (72/48) × 8 + 14 = (3/2) × 8 + 14 = 12 +14 = 26 24 + (72 ÷ 48 × 8 + 14) ×36 ÷ (3 × 4) + 36 ÷ 3 × 4 = 24 + 26 × 36÷12 + 36 ÷ 3 × 4 = 24 + 26 × 3 + 12 × 4 = 24 + 78 + 48 = 150 Answer: e)

By selling 45 lemons for Rs 40, a man loses 20%.How many should he sell for Rs 24 to gain 20% in the transaction? a) 19 b) 22 c) 20 d) 18 e) 14

Description : By selling 45 lemons for Rs 40, a man loses 20%.How many should he sell for Rs 24 to gain 20% in the transaction? a) 19 b) 22 c) 20 d) 18 e) 14

Last Answer : Selling price = Rs. 40 Loss = 20% Therefore, cost price = 40×100 /(100 - 20) = Rs. 50 Therefore, cost price of each lemon = Rs. 50/45 Now, selling price = Rs. 24 Profit = 20% Cost price = 24×100/120 = Rs. 20 Number of lemons for Rs. 20 = 20/(50/45) = 900/50 = 18 Answer: d)

A vessel contains milk and water in the ratio of 4:3. If 14 litres of the mixture is drawn and filled with water, the ratio changes to 3:4. How much milk was there in the vessel initially? a) 24 b) 32 c) 40 d) 48 e) None of these

Description : A vessel contains milk and water in the ratio of 4:3. If 14 litres of the mixture is drawn and filled with water, the ratio changes to 3:4. How much milk was there in the vessel initially? a) 24 b) 32 c) 40 d) 48 e) None of these

Last Answer : Answer: B milk = 4x and water = 3x milk = 4x – 14*4/7 and water = 3x – 14*3/7 + 14 4x – 8: 3x + 8 = 3:4 X = 8, so milk = 8*4 = 32 litres

Description : A card is drawn at random from a well-shuffled pack of 52 cards. Find the probability of getting a red card or a diamond or a jack ? -Maths 9th

Last Answer : (d) \(rac{7}{13}\)Here n(S) = 52 Let A, B, C be the events of getting a red card, a diamond and a jack respectively. ∵ There are 26 red cards, 13 diamonds and 4 jacks, n(A) = 26, n(B) = 13, n(C) = 4 ⇒ n(A ∩ B) = ... rac{1}{52}\)= \(rac{44}{52}\) + \(rac{16}{52}\) = \(rac{28}{52}\) = \(rac{7}{13}\) .
