4. A
Let the original target be x trees/day and
the number of planned days be y.
=) y=128/x
Also, as per the question
(y-3-1)×(x+4) + 4x = 144
(y-4)×(x+4) + 4x = 144
xy – 4x + 4y – 16 + 4x = 144
x×128/x+4×128/x=160
512/x=32
x = 16
the number of planned days be y.
=) y=128/x
Also, as per the question
(y-3-1)×(x+4) + 4x = 144
(y-4)×(x+4) + 4x = 144
xy – 4x + 4y – 16 + 4x = 144
x×128/x+4×128/x=160
512/x=32
x = 16
5. D
ATQ, the number of girls should be 1.5 * the
number of boys.
When 50% of the boys are taken as girls, let the number of boys = x
Number of girls = 1.5x
total number of students = 2.5x
Original number of boys = 2x (50% of boys = x)
Original number of girls = 0.5x
therefore, Girls form 20% of the overall class.

6. E
Let the total Vanilla-flavored ice-cream
produced and total Banana-flavored ice-cream produced be x and y respectively
Given,30% of x = 40% of y (Since ratio is 1:1)………….(1)
=> x/y=4/3
=> x/y+1=4/3+1(On adding 1 to both sides of the equation)
=> (x+y)/y=7/3
=> y/(x+y)=3/7
Total ice-cream mixed = 0.3x + 0.4y = 0.4y + 0.4y = 0.8y (from (1))
% of overall ice-cream mixed = 0.8y/(x+y)×100=0.8×3/7×100 = 34.28%~34%
produced and total Banana-flavored ice-cream produced be x and y respectively

% of overall ice-cream mixed = 0.8y/(x+y)×100=0.8×3/7×100 = 34.28%~34%
7. C
Total distance travelled by both of them for
22nd meeting = 1400 + 21 x 2 x 1400 = 43 x 1400
Distance travelled by each will be in proportion of their speed:-
Therefore, distance travelled by A = 50/(50 + 20) x 43 x 1400 = 43000
Now, for every odd multiple of 1400, A will be at Q and for every even multiple
of 1400 A will be at P. So, at 42000 Km (1400 x 30, even multiple) A will beat
P. So at their 22 meeting, A will be 1000 Km from P, therefore, 400 Km from
Q.
22nd meeting = 1400 + 21 x 2 x 1400 = 43 x 1400

P. So at their 22 meeting, A will be 1000 Km from P, therefore, 400 Km from
Q.
8. D
Let x be the no of
correct answers so (50-x) will be the number of wrong ans.
x-(50-x)/4=27.5
=>x=32..So no of incorrect answers=(50-32)=18
correct answers so (50-x) will be the number of wrong ans.
x-(50-x)/4=27.5
=>x=32..So no of incorrect answers=(50-32)=18
