Question 2 Explanation: 

We know that area of a rectangle = length * breadth = L * B
Area of rectangle (1) = L*B = (1/3) * 2 = (2/3)
Area of rectangle (2) = L*B = (3/4 - 1/3 ) * 3 = (5/4 )
Area of rectangle (3) = L*B = (1 - 3/4) * 1 = 1/4
Therefore Total area = Area(1+2+3) = (2/3) + (5/4) + (1/4) = 26/12 = 13/6

Question 8
A box contains five balls of same size and shape. Three of them are green coloured balls and two of them are orange coloured balls. Balls are drawn from the box one at a time. If a green ball is drawn, it is not replaced. If an orange ball is drawn, it is replaced with another orange ball. First ball is drawn. What is the probability of getting an orange ball in the next draw?
A
1/2
B
8/25
C
19/50
D
23/50
Question 8 Explanation: 
Case 1: The first ball is Green
Probability of first ball is green = 3/5
If the first ball is green then we are not replacing so the probability of the second ball being orange is = 2/4.
Probability of first ball green and second ball orange is =3/5 * 2/4 = 6/20
Case 2: The first ball is orange
Probability of first ball is orange =2/5
If the first ball is orange then we are replacing it with another orange ball/ so the number balls will remain the same.
Probability of second ball is orange = 2/5
Probability of first ball is orange and second ball is also orange = 2/5*2/5 = 4/25
Therefore, Total probability = (6/20 + 4/25) = 23/50.

A
66
B
22
C
88
D
110
Question 35 Explanation: 

Given Initial ratio : 3:13:6

Total number of students initially = 3x+13x+6x = 22x

From the given question, we can write 3x+18 = 15y -----I

                                   13x+18 = 35y-----II

                                   6x+18 = 21y------III

 

                      I - II => -10X = -20Y

                                    X=2Y------IV

 

                      Put IV in III => 6(2y) + 18 = 21y

                                       12y + 18 = 21y

                                       9y = 18

                                        y = 2 -----V

                      Substitute V in I => 3x + 18 = 30

                                           3x = 12

                                           x = 4

   Number of initial students = 22x = 22(4) = 88

Question 36

Taxes were paid on the selling price at 10%, 13% and 15% respectively for the three years. Net profit is calculated as the difference between the selling price and the sum of cost and taxes paid in that year.
The ratio of the selling price in Year 2 to the selling price in Year 3 is ______.
A
1:1
B
3:4
C
1:2
D
4:3
Question 36 Explanation: 

 According to the given data:

                        Year     Cost/unit   Number of units     Cost Price

                            1           ₹ 3                    100                     300

                            2           ₹ 2                     200                    400

                            3           ₹ 1                     300                    300

 Cost Price = Cost/unit x Number of units

Net Profit = Selling Price - (Cost Price + (Tax%  x selling price )

Year 2:

   296 = SP - (400 + (13/100) x SP)

   =>296 = 0.87SP - 400

   => 0.87SP = 696

    => SP = ₹ 800

Year 3: 

      210 = SP - (300 + (15/100) x SP)

     => 210 = 0.85SP - 300

    =>  0.85SP = 510

    => SP = ₹ 600

The ratio of selling price in Year 2 to the selling price in year 3 = 800:600 

                                                                                           = 4:3
