  1. What is the difference between the average distance covered by Car D in all the days together and the average distance covered by all the cars together on Saturday? 
    A. 25.16
    B. 26.16
    C. 27.16
    D. 28.16
    E.None of the Above
    Answer – C. 27.16 
    Explanation :
    Average distance covered by Car D in all the days together = 1795/6 = 299.16
    Average distance covered by all the cars together on Saturday = 1632/6 =272
    Difference = 299.16 – 272 = 27.16

  2. If the speed of the car A on Monday was 19.2 Km/hr, and the speed on Wednesday was 20 Km/hr and on Friday was 30 Km/hr. What was the approximate average time taken(in hours) by it to cover the distance on given days?
    A.16 hours
    B.15 hours
    C.18 hours
    D.13 hours
    E.None of the Above
    Answer – D.13 hours
    Explanation :
    Required Time(Monday) = 240/19.2 = 12.5
    Required Time(Wednesday) = 324/20 = 16.2
    Required Time(Friday) = 366/30 = 12.2
    Average time taken by Car A in given days = (12.5 + 16.2 + 12.2)/3 =13.63

  3. If to travel the given distance, the time taken by Car B on all the days was 8 hours, What was the average speed of the Car on all the days together?
    A. 45.27 kmph
    B. 35.29 kmph
    C. 25.27 kmph
    D. 15.26 kmph
    E.None of the Above
    Answer – B. 35.29 kmph
    Explanation :
    250/8 = 31.25 kmph ; 264/8 = 33 kmph ; 294/8 = 36.75 ; 300/8 = 37.5 ; 302/8 = 37.75 ; 284/8 = 35.5
    Average Speed of Car B on all the days together = 35.29 kmph

  4. Total distance travelled by all the cars together on Friday and Saturday is what percent of total distance travelled by all the cars together on Monday and Tuesday?
    A.94%
    B.92%
    C.90%
    D.93%
    E.None of the Above
    Answer – A.94%
    Explanation :
    Total distance travelled by all the cars together on Friday & Saturday = 1786 + 1632 = 3418
    Total distance travelled by all the cars together on Monday and Tuesday = 1765 + 1838 = 3603
    Required % = (3418/3603)*100 = 94%

  5. If on Tuesday, Car C and Car E travelled at the same speed, what was the ratio of the time taken by Car C and that taken by Car E to cover their respective distances?
    A. 161 : 173
    B. 173 : 159
    C. 154 : 159
    D. 161 : 154
    E. None of the Above
    Answer – C. 154 : 159
    Explanation :
    = [308/x]:[318/x]
    = 154 : 159

II.  Directions (Q. 6-10): Study the graph carefully to answer the questions that follow:

Percent Profit = [(Income – Expenditure)/Expenditure]*100

line-1

  1. If in the year 2004 the expenditures incurred by company A and B were the same, what was the ratio of the income of company A to that of Company B in that year?

    Explanation :
    Expenditure (A) = x *(100/150) = (2/3)x
    Expenditure (B) = x *(100/130) = (10/13)x
    (2/3)x : (10/13)x = 13 : 15

  5. What is the ratio of the amount of profit earned by company A to that by company B in the year 2009?
    A. 2 : 3
