Q4 · Percentage
If 30% of a number is 180, then what is 65% of that number?
- A. 390
- B. 420
- C. 360
- D. 450
Answer and solution
Answer: A
Let the number be x. Then 0.30x = 180, so x = 180/0.30 = 600. Therefore, 65% of 600 = 0.65 × 600 = 390.
Q5 · Number System
The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 11. If the digits are reversed, the new number is 27 more than the original number. What is the original number?
- A. 38
- B. 47
- C. 56
- D. 65
Answer and solution
Answer: B
Let the digits be x and y (tens and units). Then x+y=11 and (10y+x) - (10x+y) = 27. Simplifying: 9y-9x = 27, so y-x = 3. Solving x+y=11 and y-x=3 gives x=4, y=7. The number is 47.
Q6 · Profit, Loss and Discount
A man buys an article for ₹450 and sells it at a profit of 16%. What is the selling price?
- A. ₹520
- B. ₹522
- C. ₹528
- D. ₹540
Answer and solution
Answer: B
Profit = 16% of 450 = (16/100)×450 = 72. Selling price = 450 + 72 = ₹522.

Which of the following is NOT a direct tax in India?
- A. Income Tax
- B. Wealth Tax

- A. 10%
- B. 12.5%
- C. 15%
- D. 11.11%
Answer and solution
Answer: B
Increase = 27000 - 24000 = 3000. Percentage increase = (3000/24000) × 100 = 12.5%.
