Correct Answers:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
A A C B D B D E A C
Explanations:
1.
7 3
? = of 58 + of 139.2 = 81.2 + 52.2 = 133.4
5 8
Hence, option A is correct.
2. Method I :
? = 12% of 555 + 15% of 666
12 15
= × 555 + × 666
100 100
= 12 × 5.55 + 15 × 6.66
= 66.6 + 99.9 = 166.5
Method II :
? = 12% of 555 + 15% of 666
= (10 + 2)% of 555 + (10 + 5)% of 666
= 10% of 555 + 2% of 555 + 10% of 666 + 5% of 666
= 55.5 + 11.1 + 66.6 + 33.3 = 166.5
Hence, option A is correct.
3. ? = 84368 + 65466 – 72009 – 13964
= 149834 – 85973 = 63861
Hence, option C is correct.
4. 337.8 × 331.2 ÷ 335 = 33 × 33?
337.8 + 1.2 – 5 = 331 + ?
334 = 331 + ?
4=1+?
?=4–1=3
Hence, option B is correct.
5.
? 324
=
529 ?
?2 = 529 × 324
? = 529 × 324 = 23 × 18 = 414
Note : We don't even need to multiply 23 into 18 to find the correct answer. We can observe the
correct answer just by multiplying the unit digit of these two numbers, which will be 4.
Therefore, option 'D' can be immediately chosen.
Hence, option D is correct.
6. ? = 8965 + 3974 + 8652 + 185
= 21776
Hence, option B is correct.
7.
2 3
? = of 117 – of 65
3 5
= 2 × 39 – 3 × 13
= 78 – 39 = 39
Hence, option D is correct.
8.
5 11 73
?= + ÷
12 32 48
5 11 48
= + ×
12 32 73
5 33
= +
12 146
365 + 198 563
= =
876 876
Hence, option E is correct.
9. 38% of 7500 + ? % of 375 = 50% of 6000
38 ? 50
× 7500 + × 375 = × 6000
100 100 100
2850 + ? × 3.75 = 3000
3000 – 2850
?= = 40
3.75
Hence, option A is correct.
10. ? = 29(119 ÷ 17) – 149 + 2006
= 29 × 7 – 149 + 2006
= 203 – 149 + 2006
= 2060
Hence, option C is correct.
