Solution:
1. Ans. D.
Solution:After 7 years of the marriage the age of Abhay was = 33 years, His wife’s age= 30
Age of daughters= x, x+1
70=64+2x
70-64=2x
6=2x
x=3
Age of daughters
3+2=5
3+1+2=6
2. Ans. C.
Solution:Total of 18 workers= 18×50=900
New average=51 years
51×18=900-45+x
918-900+45=x
x=63
Ratio=45:63
=5:7
3. Ans. E.
Solution:Let, Seven consecutive even number= x, x+2, x+4, x+6, x+8, x+10, x+12
1424=x2+x2+144+24x
2x2+24x-1280=0
x2+12x-640=0
x2+(32-20)x-640=0
x2+32x-20x-640=0
x(x+32)-20(x+32)=0
(x+32)(x-20)=0
x=-32,20
2nd largest number= x+10
=20+10=30
4. Ans. B.
Solution:
Total age= 15×30=450
Male=15×3/5=9
Female=15×2/5=6
Total age of men= 16/25×450
=288
Total age of women=450-288
=162
Average of women= 162/6=27 years
Total age= 15×30=450
Male=15×3/5=9
Female=15×2/5=6
Total age of men= 16/25×450
=288
Total age of women=450-288
=162
Average of women= 162/6=27 years
5. Ans. E.
Solution:Let Mahesh age=x
In Mahesh’s opinion his age= 56<x<62
In his sister's opinion his age=59>=x
In his mother, opinion his age=51<x<60
Average= (57+58+59)/3
=58 years
