The total number of chairs and tables According to the question,

manufactured in shop B = 50+30 = 80 The cost price of cycle = Rs. 450
Required percentage = (200 – 80)/80 * 100 = The marked price of the cycle = 450 * 120/100 =
150% Rs. 540’
The selling price of the cycle = 540 – 20 = Rs.
16) Answer: C 520
According to the question, The selling price of a chair = Rs. 600
Let the initial speed of A and B be 5x km/hr and Neither loss nor gain,
8x km/hr The selling price of both chairs = 1200
Increased speed of A = 5x * 120/100 = 6x km/hr Selling price of 1 chair = Rs. 600
(8x * 5) – (5x * 3+6x *2) = 26 CP = 600 * 100/120 = Rs. 500
40x – 27x = 26 CP of second chair = 1200 - 500=700
13x = 26 Loss = 700 – 600 = 100
x=2 Loss% = 100/700 *100 = 14.28%
The initial speed of B = 8 * 2 = 16 km/hr
After increment, 19) Answer: C
The speed of B = 16 + 14 = 30 km/hr According to the question,
Time taken = 120/30 = 4 hours The speed of the boat = 14 km/hr
The speed of the stream = x km/hr
17) Answer: A The downstream speed = (14+x) km/hr
According to the question, The upstream speed = (14-x) km/hr
Efficiency of pipe A = 72/12 = 6 litres/hour 160/(14-x) – 240/(14+x) = 30
Combined efficiency of pipe A and B = 120/10 = 16/(14 – x) – 24/(14+x) = 3
12 litres/hour 16(14+x) – 24(14-x)=3*(14+x)(14-x)
The efficiency of pipe B = 12-6 = 6 litre/hour 588 – 3x2 = 40x -112
Combined efficiency of B and C = 54/6 = 9 3x2 + 40x -700 = 0
litres/hour 3x2 +70x – 30x -700 = 0
The efficiency of C = 9-6 = 3 litres/hour (3x + 70) (3x-30) = 0
Combined efficiency of A and C = 6 + 3 = 9 x = 10, -23.33
litres/hour x cannot be negative and decimal,
Capacity of the given tank = 9 * 12 = 108 litres So, x=10
The speed of stream = 10 km/hr
