Question 1 of 5
1. Question
When 60% of a number A is added to another number B, B becomes 175% of its previous value. Then which of the following is true regarding the values of A and B?
Correct
Answer : d
B+ 60% of A = 175% of B→
60% of A = 75% of B
i.e 0.6A = 0.75B
A/B = 5/4
Apparently it seems that A is bigger, but if you consider A and B to be negative the opposite would be true.
Hence, option (d) is correct.

Question 2 of 5
2. Question
At an election, the candidate who got 56% of the votes cast won by 144 votes. Find the total number of voters on the voting list if 80% people cast their vote and there were no invalid votes.
Correct
Answer : d
The winning candidate gets 56% of the votes cast and the losing candidate gets 44% of the votes cast.
Thus, the gap between the two is 12% of the votes cast = 144 votes. Thus, the votes cast = 1200. Since, this is 80% of the number of voters on the voting list, the number of people on the voting list = 1200/0.8
= 1500.
