Let's check the answers and solutions and try to find out what went wrong. 
 

<h2 id="content-id-1700988887551-2">Answers and Solutions</h2>

Q:1 The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 225 ml.

4/9 of the Green colour = 0.18 × 1500 × 4/9 = 120 ml

And, 35% of the Red colour = 0.35 × 0.2 × 1500 = 105 ml

Hence, Required quantity of Brown colour = (120 + 105) = 225 ml

 

Q:2 The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Rs. 97.5.

The per liter cost of Red and Blue color paint is Rs. 250 and Rs. 300

So, Total cost incurred = 0.2 × 1.5 × 250 + 0.05 × 1.5 × 300

⇒ 75 + 22.5 = Rs. 97.5

 

Q:3 The correct answer is option 5 i.e. 480 ml.

From the Pie chart:

The difference in the quantity of Black and Red colors of paint used ⇒ [25 – 20] = 5%

The difference in the quantity of White and Blue colors of paint used ⇒ [32 – 5] = 27%

Hence, required sum = [5 + 27]/100 × 1500 = 480 ml

 

Q:4 The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 468.75 ml.

From the Pie chart:

Percentage quantity of Black colour paint used = 25%

And, The total quantity of paint used = 1500 ml

Hence, Quantity of Black colour used for painting = 0.25 × 1500 = 375 ml

Hence, Quantity of Black colour brought for painting = 375/0.8 = 468.75 ml

 

Q:5 The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 50%.

From the Pie chart:

Total percentage quantity of White and Black color paint used ⇒ [32 + 25] = 57%

Total percentage quantity of Red and Green color paint used ⇒ [20 + 18] = 38%

Hence, required percentage = [(57 – 38)/38] × 100 = 50%

 

Q:6 The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 650 gms.

Amount of carbohydrates in 1 kg = 100 gms

So, in 3 kgs the amount will be 100 × 3 = 300 gms

Amount of Vitamins in 1 kg = 250 gms

So, in 3 kgs the amount will be 250 × 3 = 750 gms

Amount of Fats in 1 kg = 300 gms

So, in 3 kgs amount will be 300 × 3 = 900 gms

Average intake of the 3 nutrients = (300 + 750 + 900)/3 

⇒ 1950/3 = 650 gms

 

Q:7 The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 13 : 7.

The ratio of Proteins and Fats with respect to Carbohydrates and Vitamins = (Proteins + Fats)/(Carbohydrates + Vitamins) 

⇒ (35 + 30)/(25 + 10) = 65/35 = 13 : 7

 

Q:8 The correct answer is Option 5 i.e. Rs. 350.

The cost of 1 kg of powder = Rs. 250

The cost for 5 kg = 250 × 5 = Rs. 1250

According to the question,

Person pays only 80% of the total amount

So, amount the person pays for 5 kg powder = (80/100) × 1250 = Rs. 1000

Effective amount the customer pays for proteins in 5 kg powder = 35% of 1000 = Rs. 350

 

Q:9 The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 30 days.

Total protein to be taken = 210 gms

Amount of proteins that 1 kg of powder contains = 35% of 1kg = 350 gms

According to the question

Person intakes, the proteins with a scoop of 10 gm weigh

If 1000 gms of powder contains 350 gms of protein 

Then, 10 gm of powder will contain (350/1000) × 10 = 3.5 gms.

The person intakes 2 scoops per day.

So, according to that, he intakes 3.5 × 2 gms of proteins per day = 7 gms of protein/day

So, the number of days he has to take 7 gms of proteins to complete 210 gms of proteins = 210/7 = 30 days

Hence, he has to take the powder for 30 days to complete 210 gms of proteins.

 

Q:10 The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 33.33%.

Percentage of the vitamins in the powder = 25%

Total percentage of all other nutrients = 30 + 35 + 10 = 75 %

Percentage of vitamins with all other nutrients

⇒ (25/75) × 100% = (1/3) × 100 % = 33.33%
