Question 91 [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
If a : b = c : d, then $\frac{{{\text{ma + nc}}}}{{{\text{mb + nd}}}}{\text{ is equal to - }}$
A
m : n
B
a : b
C
dm : cn
D
an : mb
Question 91 Explanation: 
\begin{align} & {\text{Let }}\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} = k. \cr & {\text{Then, }} \cr & \Rightarrow a = bk, \, c = dk. \cr & \therefore \frac{{ma + nc}}{{mb + nd}} \cr & = \frac{{mbk + ndk}}{{mb + nd}} \cr & = \frac{{k\left( {mb + nd} \right)}}{{\left( {mb + nd} \right)}} \cr & \Rightarrow k = \frac{a}{b} \cr & \Rightarrow a:b \cr\end{align}
Question 92 [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
\begin{align} & {\text{The value of }}x{\text{ where}} \cr & x:2\frac{1}{3}::21:50\, {\text{is}} - \cr\end{align}
A
11/50
B
11/49
C
27/50
D
49/50
Question 92 Explanation: 
\begin{align} & = x:2\frac{1}{3}::21:50 \cr & \Rightarrow 50x = \frac{7}{3} \times 21 \cr & = 49 \cr & \Rightarrow x = \frac{{49}}{{50}} \cr\end{align}
Question 93 [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In a school having roll strength 286, the ratio of boys and girls is 8:5. If 22 more girls get admitted into the school, the ratio of boys and girls becomes
A
4:3
B
10:7
C
8:7
D
12:7
Question 93 Explanation: 
Boys: girls = 8:5; (let the boys = 8x; girl = 5x)

Total strength = 286;

8x+5x = 286;

13x = 286;

Or, x = 286/13 = 22;

Boys = 176 and girls = 110;

22 more girls get admitted then number of girls become,

(5x+22) = 110+22 = 132;

Now, new ratio of boys and girls = 176:132 = 4:3.

Question 94 [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Rs. 600 are divided among A, B, C so that Rs. 40 more than 2/5 of A's share, Rs. 20 more than 2/7 of B's share and Rs. 10 more than 9/17 of C's share may all be equal. What is A's share?
A
Rs. 170
B
Rs. 280
C
Rs. 200
D
Rs. 150
Question 94 Explanation: 
\begin{align} & = \frac{2}{5}{\text{A}} + 40 = \frac{2}{7}{\text{B}} + 20 \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{2}{7}{\text{B}} = \frac{2}{5}{\text{A}} + 20 \cr & \Rightarrow {\text{B}} = \frac{7}{2}\left( {\frac{2}{5}{\text{A}} + 20} \right) \cr & \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, = \left( {\frac{7}{5}{\text{A}} + 70} \right). \cr & {\text{And, }} \cr & = \frac{2}{5}{\text{A}} + 40 = \frac{9}{{17}}{\text{C}} + 10 \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{9}{{17}}{\text{C}} = \frac{2}{5}{\text{A}} + 30 \cr & \Rightarrow {\text{C}} = \frac{{17}}{9}\left( {\frac{2}{5}{\text{A}} + 30} \right) \cr & \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, = \frac{{34}}{{45}}{\text{A}} + \frac{{170}}{3}. \cr & = {\text{A}} + {\text{B}} + {\text{C}} = 600 \cr & \Rightarrow {\text{A}} + \left( {\frac{7}{5}{\text{A}} + 70} \right) + \left( {\frac{{34}}{{45}}{\text{A}} + \frac{{170}}{3}} \right) = 600 \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{{142{\text{A}}}}{{45}} = 600 - \frac{{380}}{3} \cr & \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, = \frac{{1420}}{3} \cr & \Rightarrow {\text{A}} = \frac{{1420}}{3} \times \frac{{45}}{{142}} \cr & \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, = 150. \cr\end{align}
Question 95 [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Two numbers are in ratio 4:5 and their LCM is 180. The smaller number is
A
15
B
36
C
9
D
45
Question 95 Explanation: 
Let two numbers be 4x and 5x;

their LCM = 180 and HCF = x; Now,

1st number * 2nd number = LCM*HCF

Or, 4x*5x = 180*x;

Or, 20x = 180;

Or, x = 9;

then, the smaller number = 4*9 = 36.
