121. If the cost of a unicorn toy is 50% more than the cost of a duck then find the cost of the unicorn toy.

Correct Answer: (e) 175%
Solution:The cost of a cricket bat = 8800
The cost of a teddy bear = 3200
Required percentage = [(8800 - 3200) / 3200] × 100 = 175%

122. If the cost of a unicorn toy is 50% more than the cost of a duck then find the cost of the unicorn toy.

Correct Answer: (e) 900 Rs.
Solution:

Let the cost of a duck = m
The cost of unicorn toy = 1.5m

Since total cost of unicorn and duck = 1500
⇒ 1500m + 1.5m = 1500
2.5m = 1500
m = 600

The cost of unicorn toy = 1.5m = 900 Rs.

123. Directions [123-126]: Read the data carefully and answer the following questions.

A bookseller sells two types of books i.e. NCERT books and private books. The ratio of Hindi medium NCERT books to English medium NCERT books is 2:3. The total number of Hindi medium books of those two types of book is 4200. The total number of English medium NCERT books is 25% less than total number of English medium private books. The average of Hindi medium private book and English medium private book is 3600.

Note: Total books = Hindi books + English books

Ques : Find the ratio between total number of Hindi medium NCERT books to total number of Hindi medium private books respectively?

Correct Answer: (c) 5:2 
Solution:

Let the number of Hindi medium NCERT books and English medium NCERT books are 2n and 3n respectively.

Total number of Hindi medium private books = 4200 - 2n

Total number of English medium NCERT books = 75% of total number of English medium private books.

Total number of English medium private books = (100/75) ×
3n = 4n

Average of Hindi medium private book and English medium private books = 3600
(4200 - 2n + 4n)/2 = 3600
2n = 7200 - 4200 = 3000
n = 1500

So, Total number of Hindi medium NCERT books
= 2 × 1500 = 3000

Total number of English medium NCERT books
= 3 × 1500 = 4500

Total number of Hindi medium private books = 4200 - (2 × 1500) = 1200

Total number of English medium private books
= 4 × 1500 = 6000

Total number of Hindi medium NCERT books = 3000
Total number of Hindi medium private books = 1200
Required ratio = 3000 : 1200 = 5 : 2

124. If SCERT books sell by the bookseller is 30% more than total NCERT books than find the total number of SCERT books?

Correct Answer: (e) 9750
Solution:Total number of NCERT books = 3000 + 4500 = 7500
Total number of SCERT books = 1.3 × 7500 = 9750

125. Find the difference between total number of NCERT books and total number of private books?

Correct Answer: (a) 300 
Solution:Total number of NCERT books = 3000 + 4500 = 7500
Total number of private books = 1200 + 6000 = 7200
Required difference = 7500 - 7200 = 300

126. The number of Hindi medium NCERT books is what percentage more or less than the number of Hindi medium private books?

Correct Answer: (b) 150% 
Solution:The number of Hindi medium NCERT books = 3000
The number of Hindi medium private books = 1200
Required percentage = [(3000 - 1200)/1200] × 100 = 150%

127. Directions [127-131]: Read the data carefully and answer the following questions

Information given below is about the number of employees working in day and night shift in three different companies A, B, and C.
Average number of employees working in day shift in all the three companies are 108. Ratio of employees working in day shift in company A to company C is 2:1. Total employees working in both the shifts together in company B is 270 which is same as the total employees working in both the shifts together in company C. Ratio of number of employees working in night shift in company B to company C is 9:11. Number of employees working in night shift in company A is 66 less than that in company B.

Ques : Find the ratio of number of employees working in day shift in company A to the number of employees working in night shift in company C.

Correct Answer: (a) 8:11 
Solution:

Total number of employees working in day shift in all the three companies together = 108 × 3 = 324

Let number of employees working in day shift in company A and company C are 2x and x respectively.

Number of employees working in day shift in company B
= 324 - 2x - x = (324 - 3x)

Total employees working in both the shifts together in company B = 270

Number of employees working in night shift in company B
= 270 - (324 - 3x) = (3x - 54)

Total employees working in both the shifts together in company C = 270

Number of employees working in night shift in company C
= (270 - x)

According to the question:
(3x - 54) : (270 - x) = 9 : 11
(x - 18) : (270 - x) = 3 : 11
11x - 198 = 810 - 3x
14x = 1008
x = 72

Number of employees working in day shift in company A
= 2x = 144

Number of employees working in day shift in company B
= 324 - 3x = 108

Number of employees working in day shift in company C
= x = 72

Number of employees working in night shift in company B
= 3x - 54 = 162

Number of employees working in night shift in company C
= 270 - x = 198

Number of employees working in night shift in company A
= 162 - 66 = 96

Companies | Number of employees working in day shift | Number of employees working in night shift

A | 144 | 96
B | 108 | 162
C | 72 | 198

Number of employees working in day shift in company A = 144
Number of employees working in night shift in company C = 198
Required ratio = 144 : 198 = 8 : 11

128. Find the average number of employees working in night shift in companies A and C together.

Correct Answer: (c) 147 
Solution:Average number of employees working in night shift in companies A and C together
= (96 + 198)/2 = 147

129. What percent of total employees working in both the shifts together in company A are working in day shift?

Correct Answer: (b) 60% 
Solution:Total employees working in both the shifts together in company A = 144 + 96 = 240
Total employees working in day shift in company A = 144
Required percent = (144/240) × 100 = 60%

130. What is the sum of total number of employees working in day shift in company B and total number of employees working in night shift in company C?

Correct Answer: (d) 306 
Solution:Total number of employees working in day shift in company B = 108
Total number of employees working in night shift in company C = 198
Required sum = 108 + 198 = 306
