it from PREVIOUS year SSC PAPERS, option 2 is the RIGHT ANSWER

Solution

Given that , 3 men(M) or 8 boys(B) can do the work in 17 days i.e the CAPACITY of 3 men and 8 boys is same.
Hence,3M = 8B , which gives , M = $\FRAC{8}{3}$*B

We need to find , the time taken by 2M + 6B . Replacing M with $\frac{8}{3}$*B

we GET 2*$\frac{8}{3}$*B + 6B = $\frac{34}{3}$*B.
But as 8 boys can do the job in 17days , $\frac{34}{3}$ boys can do the same job in(18*7)$\frac{34}{3}$

= 12 days.

Solution

LET the speed of WOMEN be x and that of children be y. Let the PIECE of work be W.
2x + 10Y = W/8
8x = W/6
x = W/48
Hence, we get y= W/120
Speed of 1 CHILD = W/120
Speed of 10 children = W/12
Now time needed for them to complete = W/(W/12) =12days
Therefore, the correct option is B.

Solution

Profit = 0.2 CP
Profit = SP - CP
1.2CP = SP
Hence, CP = (SP/1.2) = 75.6/1.2 = 63
Now, let the cost of type 1 rice is T1 and cost of type 2 be T2.
63 = $\frac{T1 + 3T2}{4}$
= (75 + 3*x)/4
x = 59
Therefore, cost of type 2 PRICE is 59.

Solution

As the MILKMAN is making 25% profit on selling milk and water solution at Rs 15 , the Cost price of water and Milk solution is $\FRAC{15}{1.25}$ = Rs 12

let the amount of PURE milk be x litre and amount of water mixed with it be y litre.

So using , $\frac{16x}{x + y} = 12$

= $\frac{x}{y} = \frac{3}{1}$

Solution

Profit = 25% HENCE effective Cost Price = Selling Price *$\frac{8}{10}$ or Selling Price - 20%
Thus Effective Cost Price = Rs 12 per litre

(It can be said that the farmer is adding the MILK EQUIVALENT of Effective Cost Price and Water equivalent of Initial - Effective Cost Price)
RATIO = $\frac{Effective Cost Price}{Initial - Effective Cost Price}$

Ratio = $\frac{12}{4}$ = 3:1

Solution

There are a number of ways to calculate percentages. The common WAY of doing it is:

12.8% of 715 = $\FRAC{12.8}{100}$ $ \times 715 $ = $\frac{9152}{100}$ = 91.52

Alternatively, we can also do it in parts.

12.8% of 715 is same as 10% of 715 + 2% of 715 + 0.8% of 715

i.e. 71.5 + 14.3 (=1/5th of 10%) + 5.72 (=4/5th of 1%)

which gives 91.52

Solution

137% of 12345

=(100+37)% of 12345

$=12345+\frac{37}{100}\times12345$

=12345+4570

=16915

~17000

Hence, CORRECT ANSWER is OPTION A.

Solution

Let the unknown TERM be $\text{X}$.
16.5% can be WRITTEN as $ \frac{33}{200}$.
$\frac{33\times 2400}{200} = 396$
$\text{x} = \frac{396\times3}{2} = 594$
Hence Option A is the correct answer.
