A. Rs. 3500 B. Rs. 3750 C. Rs. 3840 D. Rs. 3900

Answer: D Rs. 3900

Explanation:

Let the cost of a chair and that of a table be Rs. x and Rs. y respectively. Then, 10x = 4y or y = 5 /2x. 15x + 2y = 4000 15x + 2 x 5/2 x = 4000 20x = 4000 x = 200. So, Y= (5/2) (200)= 5000 Hence, the cost of 12 chairs and 3 tables = 12x + 3y = Rs. (2400 + 1500) = Rs. 3900.

38. What number should be added to each of the numbers 8, 21, 13 and 31 so that the resulting numbers, in this order form a proportion?

A. 2 B. 5 C. 3 D. 7

Answer: B. 5

Explanation:

(8+x)/ (21+x) = (13+x)/ (31+x) Then, (8 + x) (31 + x) = (13 + x) (21 + x) Or 39x + 248 = 34x + 273 or 5x=25 or x = 5.

39. A certain amount was divided between Salim and Rahim in the ratio of 4: 3. If Rahim?s share was Rs. 2400, the total amount was?

A. Rs. 5600 B. Rs. 9600 C. Rs. 3200 D. Rs. 16800
