Topic: SSC_ Averages
Level: 0
1.) The mean of five numbers is 18. If one number is excluded, their mean is 16. The excluded number is:
a.) 30
b.) 26
c.) 36
d.) 32
Answer: b)
Solution:
Sum of five numbers = 18 × 5 = 90
Sum when one number is excluded = 16 × 4 = 64
So, excluded number = 90 – 64 = 26
Hence, option b.

2.) After seeing a policeman from a distance of 500 metres, a thief starts running at a speed of 10 km/h. After noticing, the policeman chases immediately with a speed of 12 km/h, and the thief is caught. The distance run by the policeman is:
a.) 2.4 km
b.) 3 km
c.) 2.5 km
d.) 3.6 km
Answer: b)
Solution:
Relative speed of the policeman w.r.t the relative speed of the thief = 12 – 10 = 2 km/h
Time taken by the policeman to catch the thief = {(500/1000) ÷ 2} = (1/4) hours
So, distance covered by the policeman = 12 × (1/4) = 3 km
Hence, option b.
Topic: SSC_ Ratio and proportions
Level: 0
3.) ‘A’ varies jointly with ‘B’ and ‘C’. A = 6 when B = 3 and C = 2. Find A when B = 5 and C = 7
a.) 17.5
b.) 35
c.) 105
d.) 70
Answer: b)
Solution:
ATQ:
A = k × B × C {Where ‘k’ is a constant}
So, 6 = k × 3 × 2
Or, k = 1
Required value = A = 1 × 5 × 7 = 35
Hence, option b.
Topic: SSC_ Simplification

4.) Which of the following options has the greatest value?
a.) 20 + 4 + (−8) – 2 + 3 + 6
b.) (−22) + (−4 − 7)
c.) (−18) – 45 + (−3 − 2)
d.) (−99) + (−44) − 12
Answer: a)
Solution:
Option A: 20 + 4 + (−8) – 2 + 3 + 6
= 24 – 8 – 2 + 3 + 6 = 23
Option B: (−22) + (−4 − 7)
= -22 – 4 – 7 = –33
Option C: (−18) – 45 + (−3 − 2)
= -18 – 45 – 3 – 2 = –68
Option D: (−99) + (−44) − 12
= –99 – 44 – 12 = –155
So, option ‘A’ has the greatest value.
Hence, option a.

5.) In ΔABC, if G is the centroid and AD is a median with length 9 cm, then the length of AG is:
a.) 1.8 cm
b.) 5 cm
c.) 7 cm
d.) 6 cm
Answer: d)
Solution:
In a triangle with median AD and centroid ‘G’, the centroid divided GD and AG in ratio 1:2.
So, length of AG = 9 × (2/3) = 6 cm
Hence, option d.
Topic: SSC_ Compound interest and simple interest
Level: 0
6.) A sum of ₹14,375, when invested at r% interest per year compounded annually, amounts to ₹16,767 after two years. What is the value of r?
a.) 9
b.) 7
c.) 8
d.) 6
Answer: c)
Solution:
ATQ;
16767 = 14375 × {1 + (r/100)}2
Or, {1 + (r/100)}2 = (729/625)
Or, 1 + (r/100) = (27/25)
Or, (r/100) = (27/25) – 1
Or, (r/100) = (2/25)
Or, r = (2/25) × 100 = 8
Hence, option c.

What is the number of students playing cricket?
a.) 34
b.) 24
c.) 83
d.) 17

Hence, option a.
Topic: SSC_ Averages
Level: 0
8.) The average of 10 observations is 21. A new observation is included and the average of these 11 numbers is 1 less than the previous average. The 11th observation is ______.
a.) 21
b.) 11
c.) 10
d.) 12
Answer: c)
Solution:
Sum of first 10 observations = 10 × 21 = 210
Sum of 11 observations = 11 × 20 = 220
So, 11th observation = 220 – 210 = 10
Hence, option c.

How many students obtained marks more than 130?
a.) 14
b.) 19
c.) 20

10.) Which of the following is the least 6-digit number that is divisible by 93?
a.) 100068
b.) 100070
c.) 100075
d.) 100065
Answer: a)
Solution:
We know that 100000 ÷ 93 ~ 1075.26
So, required number must be 93 × 1076
So, least 6-digit number that is divisible by 93 = 93 × 1076 = 100068
Hence, option a.

11.) A number ‘x’ is three times another number ‘y’. If the sum of both the numbers is 20, then x and y, respectively, are:
a.) 8 and 12
b.) 15 and 5
c.) 5 and 15
d.) 2 and 18
Answer: b)
Solution:
ATQ;
x = 3y
So, x + y = 3y + y = 20
Or, 4y = 20
So, y = 5
So, x = 20 – 5 = 15
Therefore, ‘x’ and ‘y’ are 15 and 5, respectively
Hence, option b.

12.) A person could save 20% of his income. A year later, his income increased by 25% but he could save the same amount only as before. By what percentage has his expenditure increased?
a.) 27.5%
b.) 32.5%
c.) 31.25%
d.) 29.75%
Answer: c)
Solution:
Let the initial income of the person be Rs. 100x
So, amount saved = 100x × 0.2 = Rs. 20x
So, original expenditure = 100x – 20x = Rs. 80x
New income = 100x × 1.25 = Rs. 125x
So, new expenditure = 125x – 20x = Rs. 105x
Increase in expenditure = 105x – 80x = Rs. 25x
So, required percentage = (25x/80x) × 100 = 31.25%
Hence, option c.

13.) The marked price of a table fan is Rs. 3750 and is available to the retailer at a discount of 20%. At what price should the retailer sell it to earn a profit of 15%?
a.) Rs. 3250
b.) Rs. 3500
c.) Rs. 3700
d.) Rs. 3450
Answer: d
Solution:
Price at which the retailer purchases the table fan = 3750 × 0.8 = Rs. 3000
So, price at which the retailer must sell the fan to earn a profit of 15% = 3000 × 1.15 = Rs. 3450
Hence, option d.

14.) Ravi drove for 4 hours at a speed of 70 miles per hour and for 2 hours at a speed of 40 miles per hour. What was his average speed (in miles per hour) for the whole journey?
a.) 60 miles per hour
b.) 45 miles per hour
c.) 55 miles per hour
d.) 65 miles per hour
Answer: a
Solution:
Total distance travelled by Ravi = 4 × 70 + 2 × 40 = 360 miles
Total time taken for travel = 4 + 2 = 6 hours
So, average speed = total distance covered ÷ total time taken = (360/6) = 60 miles per hour
Hence, option a.

b.) x2 + (a – b)x + ab
c.) x2 + (a + b)x – ab
d.) x2 + (a – b)x – ab
Answer: a
Solution:
(x + a) × (x + b) = x2 + ax + bx + ab
= x2 + (a + b)x + ab
Hence, option a.

16. What is the height of a solid right circular cylinder whose radius is 3 cm and total surface area is 60π cm2.
a.) 4.2 cm
b.) 5 cm
c.) 7 cm
d.) 9 cm
Answer: c
Solution:
Total surface area of a cylinder = 2 × π × radius × (height + radius)
= 2 × π × 3 × (height + 3)
Or, 6π(height + 3) = 60π
So, height + 3 = 60π ÷ 6π = 10
So, height of the cylinder = 10 – 3 = 7 cm
Hence, option c.

a.) 12
b.) 10
c.) 18
d.) 15
Answer: d
Solution:
Let the hourly efficiency of 1 person be ‘x’ units/hour
Then, total work = 45x × 10 × 6 = 2700x
So, number of days taken by 30 people working 6 hours a day to complete the same work
= 2700x ÷ (30x × 6) = 15 days
Hence, option d.

a.) 100√3 cm2
b.) 200 cm2
c.) 100 cm2
d.) 100√2 cm2
Answer: a
Solution:
For an equilateral triangle with side length of ‘a’ units
Area of the triangle = (√3/4)a2
= (√3/4) × 202 = 100√3 cm2
Hence, option a.

a.) 15
b.) 20
c.) 18
d.) 24
Answer: d
Solution:
Selling price of 1 dozen pair of gloves = 200 × 0.8 = Rs. 160
So, number of dozens of pairs of gloves that can be bought for Rs. 320 = 320 ÷ 160 = 2
So, number of pairs of gloves that can be bought for Rs. 320 = 2 × 12 = 24
Hence, option d.

20.) The value of sin 73o + cos 137o is:
a.) sin 13o
b.) cos 13o
c.) cos 18o
d.) sin 18o
Answer: a
Solution:
sin 73o + cos 137o = sin 73o + cos (90 + 47)o
= sin 73o – sin 47o
We know that, sin A – sin B = 2cos{(A+ B)/2} sin{(A – B)/2}
So, sin 73o – sin 47o = 2cos{(73 + 47)/2} sin{(73 – 47)/2}
= 2cos 60o sin 13o
= 2 × (1/2) × sin 13o
= sin 13o
Hence, option a.

21. The diameter of the base of a right circular cylinder in 12 cm and the height of the cylinder is 2.45 times the radius of its base. Find the curved surface area of the cylinder.
a.) 550.4 cm2
b.) 548.8 cm2
c.) 578.2 cm2
d.) 554.4 cm2
Answer: 4
Solution:
Radius of the given cylinder = diameter ÷ 2 = 12 ÷ 2 = 6 cm
So, height of the cylinder = 6 × 2.45 = 14.7 cm
Curved surface area of the cylinder = 2 × π × radius × height
= 2 × (22/7) × 6 × 14.7
= 554.4 cm2
Hence, option d.

22.) If x + y + z = 10, x2 + y2 + z2 = 30, then the value of x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz is?
a.) -25
b.) -50
c.) -40
d.) -10
Answer: 2
Solution:
(x + y + z)2 = 102 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2(xy + yz + zx)
So, 2(xy + yz + zx) = 100 – 30 = 70
So, (xy + yz + zx) = (70/2) = 35
x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = (x + y + z)(x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – zx)
= 10 × (30 – 35)
= 10 × – 5
= – 50
Hence, option b.

23.) A pen passing through 2 hands is finally sold at a profit of 44% of the original cost price. If the first dealer makes a profit of 20%, then the profit made by the second dealer is?
a.) 36%
b.) 24%
c.) 20%
d.) 27%
Answer: c
Solution:
Let the original cost price of the article be Rs. 100x
Then, price at which first dealer sold the article = 100x × 1.2 = Rs. 120x
Final selling price = 100x × 1.44 = Rs. 144x
So, profit made by the second dealer = (144x – 120x) ÷ 120x × 100 = 20%
Hence, option c.

a.) Rs. 1.36
b.) Rs. 1.28
c.) Rs. 1.18
d.) Rs. 1.22
Answer: c
Solution:
Total price of all products purchased = 20000 × 1 + 15000 × 1.15 + 5000 × 2
= Rs. 20000 + 17250 + 10000 = Rs. 47250
Total number of products purchased = 20000 + 15000 + 5000 = 40000
So, required average = 47250 ÷ 40000 ~ 1.18
Hence, option c.
