Given:

40% of C.P = 60% of S.P

Formula used:

Gain% = (Gain/C.P) × 100%

Calculation:

40% of C.P = 60% of S.P

⇒ 2 × C.P = 3 × S.P

⇒ C.P = 3, S.P = 2

Loss = Rs. (3 – 2) = Rs. 1

Loss% = (1/3) × 100%

⇒ 33.33%

∴ The loss percentage is 33.33%

Given:

6 × (5/7) + (2/3) – 4 = x

Concept:

Least Common Multiple (LCM) = The L.C.M. of two or more numbers is the least number which is exactly divisible by each of them.
Calculation:

6 × (5/7) + (2/3) – 4

⇒ (30/7) + (2/3) - 4

L.C.M. of (7, 3) = 21

⇒ [(21 ÷ 7) × 30 + (21 ÷ 3) × 2 – 4 × 21]/21

⇒ [3 × 30 + 7 × 2 – 84]/21

⇒ [90 + 14 – 84]/21

⇒ 20/21

∴ The value of x is 20/21.

GIVEN:

HCF and LCM of two numbers is ‘a – b’ and ‘a + b’ respectively.

One number = (1 – b²/a²)

CALCULATION:

We know that :

HCF × LCM = First number × Second number

(a – b) × (a + b) = [1 – (b²/a²)] × Second number

Second number = [(a – b) (a + b)]/[1 – (b²/a²)]

Second number = (a² – b²)/[(a² – b²)/a²)]

Second number = a²

GIVEN:

Square of sum of four consecutive positive integers is 670 more than the sum of square those four consecutive positive integers.

CALCULATION:

Let consecutive integers are ‘x’, ‘x + 1’, ‘x + 2’ and ‘x + 3’

Square of sum of four consecutive positive integers = [x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3)]² = (4x + 6)² = 16x² + 36 + 48x

Sum of square those four consecutive positive integers = x² + (x + 1)² + (x + 2²) + (x + 3)² = x² + x² + 1 + 2x + x² + 4 + 4x + x² + 9 + 6x = 4x² + 12x + 14

Now,

(16x² + 36 + 48x) – (4x² + 12x + 14) = 670

12x² + 36x – 648 = 0

x² + 3x – 54 = 0

x = 6

Required average = [x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3)]/4 = (4x + 6)/4 = x + 1.5 = 6 + 1.5

= 7.5

Concept used:

The reciprocal of a number is 1 divided by the number.

Calculation:

Let the number be x

Now, A/Q

x – 20 = 2925/x

⇒ x² – 20x – 2925 = 0

⇒ x2 – 65x + 45x – 2925 = 0

⇒ x(x – 65) + 45(x – 65) = 0

⇒ (x + 45)(x – 65) = 0

⇒ x = –45 and x = 65

∴ The required positive number is 65

Given:

Numbers = 195 and 273

Concept used:

HCF: Highest Common Factor

The common factor to the given numbers

Calculation:

Let us factories the given numbers.

195 = 5 × 39

273 = 7 × 39

From the above, we can see that the common factor to both the numbers is 39.

∴ HCF (195, 273) = 39.

We have to find HCF of (438-6) and (606-6)
=432 and 600
here 600>432
= 600 = 432*1+168
= 432 = 168*2+96
= 168 = 96*1+72
= 96 = 72*1+24
=72 = 24*3+0
here the remainder becomes 0 so HCF is 24.

Given:

Mira’s Profit = 40%

Ravi’s loss = 20%

Dileep’s C.P = Rs. 8456

Concept used:

S.P = C.P × (100 + P%)/100

S.P = C.P × (100 – L%)/100

Where,

S.P → Selling price

C.P → Cost price

P% → Profit%

L% → Loss%

Calculations:

Let Mira bought the phone for Rs. 100x

C.P of the phone for Ravi = S.P of the phone for Mira = 100x × 140/100 = 140x

C.P of the phone for Dileep = S.P of the phone for Ravi = 140x × 80/100 = 112x

C.P of the phone for Dileep = 112x = 8456

⇒ x = 75.5

Mira purchased the phone = 75.5 × 100 = 7550

∴ Mira purchased the phone for Rs. 7550.

Characteristics that help an employee feel more productive in the workplace are called Self –management skills.

If the value of the stock doesn't change, what motivates a company to split its stock? Though there are no theoretical reasons in financial literature to indicate the need for a stock split, generally, there are mainly two important reasons. As the price of a security gets higher and higher, some investors may feel the price is too high for them to buy, or small investors may feel it is unaffordable. Splitting the stock brings the share price down to a more "attractive" level. In our earlier example to buy 1 share of company ABC you need Rs. 40 pre-split, but after the stock split the same number of shares can be bought for Rs.10, making it attractive for more investors to buy the share. This leads us to the second reason. Splitting a stock may lead to increase in the stock's liquidity, since more investors are able to afford the share and the total outstanding shares of the company have also increased in the market
