Total cost price = \(150 *{112 \over 100}\)=168
Profit is 10%
Selling price = cost price * profit
=\(168 * {110 \over 100}\)
=Rs. 184.80
106 X 106 - 94 X 94 = ?

Answer is : 2400
\(106 \times 106 - 94 \times 94\)
\(= 106^2 -94^2\)........(i)
Apply Following Formula (\(a^2-b^2 =(a+b)(a-b)\)) on (i)
\(=(106+94)(106-94)\)
\(= (200)(12)\)
= 2400
The ratio of present ages of Mukesh and Suresh is 2 : 3. After 12 years, their ages will be in the ratio 11 : 15. The present age of Suresh will be-
Nithin K ? Nov 26 '2016 at 19:37
Answer is : 48 years
Explanation:
Let Mukesh's age = 2x or Suresh's age =3x
After 12 years,
\(\frac{2x+12}{3x+12} = \frac{11}{15}\)
\((2x+12) \times 15 = (3x+12) \times 11\)
\(30x +180 =33x +132\)
48 = 3x
x = 16
\(\therefore \text{ The present age of Suresh will be : }3x\)
\(= 3 \times 16\)
\(= 48 \text{ yr}\)
The ratio of the radii of two cylinders is 2 : 3 and the ratio of their heights is 5 : 3. The ratio of their volumes will be-

Answer is : 48 years
Explanation:
Let Mukesh's age = 2x or Suresh's age =3x
After 12 years,
\(\frac{2x+12}{3x+12} = \frac{11}{15}\)
\((2x+12) \times 15 = (3x+12) \times 11\)
\(30x +180 =33x +132\)
48 = 3x
x = 16
\(\therefore \text{ The present age of Suresh will be : }3x\)
\(= 3 \times 16\)
\(= 48 \text{ yr}\)
The difference between the compound interest and simple interest on a certain sum for 2 years at the same rate of interest of 10% per annum is Rs. 42. The sum is-
padma ? Jan 2 '2019 at 21:31
Answer is : A [Rs.4,200]
Explanation:
Let the sum be Rs.x. then S.I.= \( (\frac{x \times 10 \times 2}{100})\) = \(\frac{2x}{10}\)
C.I = \(\big[x\big(1+ \frac{10}{100}\big)^2 -x\big]\) = \(\frac{121x}{100}\)
\(\big[x \big(\frac{121}{100}\big)-x\big] =\frac{21x}{100}\)
\(=\frac{21x}{100}\)
\(\frac{21x}{100} - \frac{2x}{10} = 42 \)
=> \(\frac{x}{100} = 42\)
=> x = 4200
A and B take part in a 100 m race. A runs at 5 km/h. If A starts after B runs 8 m,and wins the race by 8 seconds, the speed of B is
Nithin K ? Nov 26 '2016 at 19:24
Answer is : 4.14 km/ h
Explanation:
\(\text{A's Speed = } \big(5 \times \frac{5}{18}\big)m/s \)
\(= 25 \text{ m/s}\)
\(\text{Time taken by A to cover 100 m = }100 \times \frac{18}{25} sec \)
=72 sec
\(\text{Time taken by B to cover 92 m = } 72+8\)
=80 sec
\(\therefore \text { B's Speed }= \big( \frac{92}{80} \times \frac{18}{5} \big) kmph\)
=4.14 kmph
