1
Numerical Aptitude

The average monthly expenditure of a family was ₹8,600 during the first three months, ₹9,750 during the next four months and ₹9,920 during the last five months of the year. If the total savings during the year was ₹65,300, what was the average monthly income (in ₹) of the family?

  1. A.14,975
  2. B.15,794
  3. C.15,479
  4. D.14,597

Explanation

Total expenditure = 8600×3 + 9750×4 + 9920×5 = 1,14,400; income = 1,14,400 + 65,300 = 1,79,700; average = 179700/12 = ₹14,975.

2
Numerical Aptitude

A thief saw a policeman and started running at a speed of 18 m/s. After 12 seconds, the policeman started chasing the thief at a certain speed. If the policeman covered a distance of 864 metres to catch the thief, then the speed (in m/s) of the policeman is:

  1. A.28
  2. B.15
  3. C.30
  4. D.24

Explanation

Thief covers 864 m in 864/18 = 48 s; policeman runs for 48 − 12 = 36 s; speed = 864/36 = 24 m/s.

3
Numerical Aptitude

The ratio of the present ages of A and B is 3 : 1. Five years ago, the ratio of their ages was 5 : 1. The age of A (in years) after eight years will be:

  1. A.30
  2. B.22
  3. C.38
  4. D.40

Explanation

(3x−5)/(x−5) = 5/1 ⇒ 2x = 20 ⇒ x = 10; A = 30 now; after 8 years = 38.

4
Numerical Aptitude

Two trains, 148 m and 152 m long, are running towards each other on parallel lines at speeds of 62 km/h and 46 km/h respectively. How much time will they take to completely pass each other from the moment they meet?

  1. A.5 s
  2. B.20 s
  3. C.10 s
  4. D.15 s

Explanation

Total length = 300 m; relative speed = 108 km/h = 30 m/s; time = 300/30 = 10 s.

5
Numerical Aptitude

The area of an equilateral triangle is (1681√3)/4 sq. cm. The side of the equilateral triangle is:

  1. A.23 cm
  2. B.29 cm
  3. C.47 cm
  4. D.41 cm

Explanation

(√3/4)a² = (1681√3)/4 ⇒ a² = 1681 ⇒ a = 41 cm.
