EXPLANATORY ANSWERS

16. (3) By adding 31, 33, 35, 37, 39... we get the nos

∴ Reqd. no. = 336 + 39 = 375

17. (4) 10 22 8 24 6 x

There are two series, 10, 8, 6,... 8, 22, 24 ∴ x = 26

18. (1) All are cubes 33, 43, 53, 63, 73

∴ Reqd. no = 83 = 512

19. (5) By adding 11.5, 12.5, 13.5, 14.5, 15.5, we get nos

∴ Reqd. no. = 112.5 + 15.5 = 128

20. (2) By adding 11, 22, 33, 44, 55 we get the series

∴ Reqd. no. = 206 + 55 = 261

31. 3; Percentage of party B in 1984 = 202 × 100 = 62%

325

32. 4; To form a govt. minimum number required > 325 , i.e., more than or equal to 263.

2

33. 5; Percentage growth of party A in 1996 = 152 – 89 × 100 = 70%

89

34. 3 ; Percentage of party D in 1984 w.r.t. B = 40 × 100 = 20%

202

35. 3; Percentage decline of party B in 1991 = 184 – 136 × 100 = 26%

184

Qn.37. 3; . For 94 no.of students absented (in thousands) – 4,

For year 95 ---4. For year 96 --- 8. For year 97 –6 For year 98 ---6.

Qn.38. 5; Best performance of the passed students – highest percentage of passed students.

Qn.39. 3; Average no. of students appeared at the examination (in thousands) =

198 + 200 + 202 + 202 + 206 divided by 5 = 1008/5 = 201.6.

So years in which students appeared less than average – 97,97, & 98.

Qn.40. 2; The no. of students failed in 96 = 90 X 1000

The no. of students failed in 1998 = 86 X 1000

Ratio = 90/86 = 1.05.
