A) 8:12:15
B) 9:11:15
C) 9:17:18
D) 12:15:25
Let's break It down:
Given:
• A:8=2:3
• B:C=4:S
To find A:B:C:
Convert B to a common term:
Since B appears In both ratios, we need to align them. Multiply the first ratio by 4 and the second by 3 to make B consistent.
• A:B=2*4:3*4=8:12
• B:C::4*3:5*3=12:15
Combine them:
• Now we have A:B:C=S:12:15
The correct answer is (A) 8:12:15.
Q 31: What will be the ratio of simple interest earned by certain amount at the same rate of interest for 12 years and for 18 years?
A) 2:5
B) 2:3
C) 1:3
D) 3:1
The ratio of simple Interest earned for 12 years and 18 years can be found by using the formula:
Simple Interest (SI) = (Principal x Rate x Time)/ 100
Since the principal amount and rate of Interest are the same in both cases, the ratio of simple interest earned will be directly proportional to the time.
So, the ratio of simple Interest earned for 12 years and 18 years will be:
12:18
Simplifying the ratio, we get:
2:3
·Therefore, the correct answer is (B) 2:3.

Q 40: An army camp of 200 men has enough food for 60 days. How long will the food last if the number of men In the camp Is reduced to 160?
A) 80 days
B) 75 days
C) 70 days
D) 85 days
1. The camp initially has 200 men and enough food for 60 days.
2. This means the total amount of food is sufficient for 200 men for 60 days.
3. If the· number of men is .reduced to 160, the same amount of food will now be shared among fewer people.
4. To find out how long the food will last, we can set up a proportion:
200 men * 60 days = 160 men * x days
where x is the number of days the food will last for 160 men.
1. .Cross-multiply and solve for x:
200 * 60 = 160 * x
12,000 = 160x
x = 12,000 / 160
x = 75
So, the food will last for 75 days If the number of men is reduced to 160.
The correct answer is (B) 75 days.

Q 44: On a 20% discount sale, an article costs 596. What was the original price of the article:
A) 720
B) 735
C) 745
D) 775
Let be the original price "x".
Since the article is on a 20% discount sale,. the selling price (596) is 80% of the original price (x), as 20% is the discount.
We can set up an equation:
596 = 0.8x
To find the original price (x) , divide both sides by 0.8:
X = 596 / 0.8
X = 745
So, the original price of the article was 745.
The correct answer Is (C) 745.

Q 48: Saim can row 9 km/hr In still water. It takes him twice the time to row up as to row down. Find the rate of flow of the stream.
A) 16 km/h
B) 8 km/h
C) 3 km/h
D) 9 km/h
1. Let the rate of the stream be x km/h.
2. Saim's speed in still water is 9 km/h, so his speed downstream (with the stream) is 9 + x km/h, and his speed upstream (against the stream) is 9 - x km/h.
3. Since it takes him twice the time to row up as to row down, the ratio of his upstream speed to downstream speed is 1:2.
4. We can set up an equation based on this ratio:
(9 - x) / (9 +x) = 1/2
l. Cross-mult iply and solve for x:
2(9 - x) = 9 + x
18 - 2x = 9 + x
3x = 9
x = 3
So, the rate of flow of the stream is 3 km/h.
The correct answer Is (C) 3 km/h
