Quantitative Aptitude Quiz For NIACL AO
Directions (1-5): Study the following graph and table carefully to answer the questions that follow.
Percentage distribution of students appeared in a competitive exam from seven states
Table shows percentage of students qualified from each state and ratio of male and female qualified students
Q1. What is the total number of candidates disqualified from state E, B and G together ?
Q2. What is the total number of female candidates qualified from states F and C together ?
= 18864
Q3. Which of the following pair of states have equal number of qualified male candidates ?
Qualified males in B = 6/10×61/100×18/100×3 lakh = 19764
Qualified males in C = 7/15×54/100×6/100×3 lakh = 4536
Qualified males in E = 7/13×65/100×12/100×3 lakh = 12600
Qualified males in F = 11/19×57/100×19/100×3 lakh = 18810
Qualified males in G = 9/20×48/100×7/100×3 lakh = 4536
Q4. Find the difference between qualified males from E and C together and qualified females from B and D together?
Qualified females from F and D together
= (4/10×61/100×18/100+2/5×45/100×23/100)×3,00,000 = 25596
∴ Required difference = 8460
Q5. Qualified females from A are what percent (approximate) of appeared candidates from B?
Q6. 15 women can do a piece of work in 12 days while 16 men can do the same work in 10 days. All men and all women work alternately starting with all men, then find the time taken by them to complete the whole work?
⇒m/w=9/8
Total work=15×12×8=1440 units
In 2 days, total work done=16×9+15×8=264 units
So, in 10 days work done will be=264×5=1320
units Remaining work will be done in = (1440-1320)/(16×9)=5/6
days Total days=10⅚ days
Q7. A train can cross a platform, a tunnel and a pole in 36 sec, 24 sec and 12 sec respectively. Another train whose speed is 72km/hr can cross a pole in 8 sec. If speed of former train is four-fifth of the speed of the latter train, then find sum of length of platform and of tunnel.
Q8. Average marks of a student in five subjects is 80. If the average marks of first two subject is 84.5 and the average marks of last who subject is 83. Find the marks of third subject ?
Total marks of Ist two subject = 84.5 × 2 = 179
Total marks of last two subject = 83 × 2 = 166
Marks of third subject = 400 – (166 + 169) = 65
Q9. A man can row the boat in downstream from point P to R in 16 hours. But he return from point Q, which is exactly mid-point of P and R in upstream in 12 hours. Find the ratio of speed of stream to the speed of man in still water ?
Speed of current = y km/hr
Let PQ = QR = M km and PR = 2M km
ATQ—
x+y = 2M/16 …(i)
x–y = M/12 …(ii)
on solving (i) and (ii)
x/y = 5/1
Q10. Vaibhav, while buying from wholesaler, gets 17 items at the cost of 10 items. If he allows two successive discounts of 5.88% and ‘a%’ and earns an overall profit of 20%. Then find value of ‘a’.
and, he bought 17 items
then, cost price for him = 10 × 1 = Rs. 10
ATQ,
10×120/100 = 17×16/17×(100–a)/100
or, 12/16 = (100–a)/100
or, a = 25
Directions (11-15): In each of these questions, two equations (I) and (II) are given. You have to solve both the equations and give answer
Q11. I. 49x² + 84x – 64 = 0
II. 25y² - 100y + 64 = 0
Q12. I. 4x² - 33x + 63 = 0
II. 10y² - 113y + 318 = 0
Q13. I. 3x + 4y = 24
II. 2x + 3y = 17
Q15. I. x² – 15x + 56 = 0
II. y² – 13y + 42 = 0
