13.The perimeter of an isosceles (ସମଦ୍ୱିବାହୁ🔺) triangle is 50cm and its base is 24cm its area is

  • A) 60cm²
  • B) 50cm²
  • C) 180cm²
  • D) 90cm²



Ans: A) 60cm²


Perimeter= x + x + 24 = 50cm (Given)
x = 13
ଉଚ୍ଚତା ² = କର୍ଣ² – ଭୂମି ² ।
ଏଠାରେ କର୍ଣ = 13cm, ଭୂମି = 12cm ।
ଉଚ୍ଚତା = 169 – 144 = ✓25 = 5cm
Area of a ∆ = ½ × ଭୂମି × ଉଚ୍ଚତା => ½ × 24cm × 5cm = 60cm²

  • (C) 10002
  • (D) 10002



Ans: (B) 10107

L.C.M of 12,10,16,18 = 720
The smallest no. of five digits = 10000 .Now divide 10000 ÷ 720 = 640 (ଭାଗଶେଷ)
=> 720 – 640 = 80
10000 + 80 = 10080(Completely Divisible by 10,12,16,18)
According to question remender should be 27.
=> 10080 + 27 = 10107

  • D) None of these



Ans:C) 16 + 2/3%
P = x (Let the principal be x.)
T = 24Years
R = ?
A = 5x
I =A – P = 5x – x = 4x
I = PTR/100
4x = x × 24 × r/100
= 6r/100⇒ r = 100/6

  • D) 25%



Ans:A) 20%
P = 500
T = 3 Years
R = ?
A = 864
I = 364
A = p(1 + r/100)t
864 = 500(1 + r/100)3
864/500 = (1 + r/100)3
216/125 = (1 + r/100)3
3216/125= (1 + r/100)
6/5 = (1 + r/100)
6/5= (100 + r/100)
6/1 = (100 + r/20)
100 + r = 120 ⇒ r = 120 – 100 = 20%

57. Rita read 3/8th of the book on Monday and 4/5th of remaining on Tuesday. If there were 30 pages unread, how many pages does the book contains.

  • A) 120
  • B) 240
  • C) 340
  • D) 230



Ans: B) 240
Solution-:
Rita read 3/8th of the book on Monday.So remaining pages = 5/8th pages.
Tuesday read 4/5th of the remaining pages.
4/5 × 5/8= 1/2
Remaining pages = 5/81/2= 1/8 pages.
OR
5/8 × 1/5 = 1/8
1/8 = 30 Pages unread (given).
Book contains 30 × 8 = 240 pages.

  • D) ୯୦୦



Ans: B) ୬୪୮
Solution-:

୯୦୦ × ୮୦/୧୦୦ × ୯୦/୧୦୦ = ୬୪୮
କିମ୍ବା
Successive Discount formula
= x + y – xy/100

Ans:B) 52
Solution-: /x4x/x + 1/x = 0/x (ଉଭୟ ପାର୍ଶ୍ଵକୁ x ଦ୍ୱାରା ଭାଗକରାଗଲା।)
= x – 4 + 1/x = 0
x + 1/x = 4
Rule : if
x + 1/x = p then x² + 1/ = p²- 2
ଏବଂ x³ + 1/ = p³- 3p
.°. x³ + 1/ = 4³ – 3×4
64 – 12 = 52

  • A) 33.33%
  • B) 42.5%
  • C) 37.5%
  • D) 40%



Ans:B) 42.5%
Solution:-
Let total mark be x.
ଆମେ ଜାଣିଛନ୍ତି ପାସ ମାର୍କ Constant ରହିବ।
30% + 50 = 50% – 30

30x/100 + 50 = 50x/100 – 30
20x/100 = 80
x = 400 (Total Mark)
Pass mark = 400 × 50% – 30 = 170
170/400 × 100 = 42.5%

  • A) 33.33%
  • B) 42.5%
  • C) 108.33%
  • D) 40%



Ans:C) 108.33%

Dishonest shopkeeper uses 40% less weight in 1 kg.
Let 1000g ——-> Rs.1000.(CP)
Shopkeeper sells his goods at 25% profit.
ହେଲେ ବିକ୍ରୟମୂଲ୍ୟ = 1000 × 5/4 = 1250 (SP)

87. The average of 6 members in family is 22 years. If the age of the youngest is 7 years, what was average age of the members of the family at the time of birth of the youngest?

  • A) 15
  • B) 17
  • C) 18
  • D) 16



Ans:C) 18
Solution -: 22 × 6 = 132 (୬ ଜଣଙ୍କ ମୋଟ ବୟସ)
Age of the members of the family at the time of birth of the youngest was 132 – 6 × 7 = 90
Average age of 5 member was 90 ÷ 5 = 18

89. If the area of a circle is decreased by 36% then radius of a circle decreases by

  • A) 10%
  • B) 35%
  • C) 24%
  • D) 20%



Ans:D) 20%
Solution -:
Initial radius be “r”.
Area = πr²
The area of a circle is decreased by 36% = πr² × 64/100 = 0.64πr² ⮕ π(0.8)² (ଏମିତି ଲେଖିଲେ ‘r’ ର ମାନ ପାଇହେବ)
Radius decreased = r – 0.8r = 0.2r ⮕ Decreased % = 0.2r/r × 100 = 20%

90. The product of two numbers is 130 and their addition is 23. What is the difference between the two?

  • A) 5
  • B) 3
  • C) 7
  • D) 10



Ans:B) 3
Solution:-

93.What is the rate of interest if a sum of Rs.4000/- becomes Rs.5000/- in 5 years on simple interest?

  • A) 5%
  • B) 10%
  • C) 20%
  • D) 13%



Ans:A) 5%
Solution:-
p = 4000, t = 5 years, A = 5000 ହେଲେ ସୁଧ(i) = 1000
4000 ଟଙ୍କାର 5 ବର୍ଷରେ ସୁଧ 1000 ହେଲେ, 4000 ହଜାର ଟଙ୍କାର ବର୍ଷକ ସୁଧ ହେବ 200 ଟଙ୍କା।
ସୁଧର ହାର = 200/4000 × 100 = 1/20 = 5%

94.Reeta says that she sells her goods at the cost price. If she uses 80 gram weight instead of 100 gram, then what is her profit percentage?

  • A) 25%
  • B) 20%

98. The H.C.F. of two numbers is 23 and the other two factors of their L.C.M. are 13 and 14. The larger of the two numbers is:

  • A) 276
  • B) 279
  • C) 322
  • D) 385



Ans: C) 322

Solution-:Let two numbers be 23a,23b.
H.C.F. of two numbers is 23.(Given)
The other two factors of their L.C.M. are 13 and 14.(Given)
The L.C.M. of 23a,23b is 23ab .
Factors of 23ab = 23 × a × b
.°. The two numbers are 23 × 13 & 23 × 14 (23a,23b).
Largest number is 23 × 14 = 322

99. A person takes a loan of Rs. 2500 at 4% simple interest. He returns Rs.1500 at the end of 1 year. What amount he would pay to clear his dues at the end of 2 years?

  • A) 1150
  • B) 1050
  • C) 1140
  • D) 1100



Ans: C) 1140

Solution-:A person takes a loan of Rs. 2500 at 4% simple interest.
p = 2500 r = 4% i = 100———> 1st. year
p = 1000 r = 4% i = 40 ——> 2nd. year
Amount he would pay to clear his dues at the end of 2 years ia 1000 + 100 + 40 = 1140

100. If a number is increased by 50% and then decreased by 60%, the resulting number becomes 80 less than the original number. What was the original number?

  • A) 80
  • B) 130
  • C) 200
  • D) 100



Ans: C) 200

Solution-: Let the number be N is increased by 50% and then decreased by 60%.
N—–50%↑—3N/2
3N/2—-60%↓—6N/10
The resulting number becomes 80 less than the original number.
N – 80 = 6N/10
10N – 800 = 6N
4N = 800 => N = 200
