Q4. Direction:There are five shoe companies: Puma, Nike, Adidas, Reebok and Bata. In the following line graphs, the first line graph shows the marked up price with respect to the cost price of the shoes and the second line graph shows the discount percentage given on the marked up price with the help of the given information answer the following questions.
If the profit of Nike and Bata shoe is same and C.P. of Bata is INR 400 then find the C.P of Nike shoe?
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
The cost price of Bata shoe be INR 400
Marked up price of Bata shoe is 125% of the cost price
⇒M.P. = 125% of 400
⇒M.P. = INR 500
Discount given is 10% on the marked price
As we know, Selling price = M.P. – discount
⇒S.P. = 500 – 10% of 500
⇒S.P. = 500 – 50
⇒S.P. = INR 450
Now, Gain = S.P. – C.P.
⇒Gain = 450 – 400 (∵ S.P. > C.P.)
⇒Gain = INR 50
According to the given information
Gain on Nike shoes is INR 50
Let the cost price of Nike shoe be INR x
Marked up price of Nike shoe is 200% of the cost price
⇒M.P. = INR 2x
Discount given is 45% on the marked price
⇒S.P. = 2x – 45% of 2x
⇒S.P. = 2x – 9x/10
⇒S.P. = INR 11x/10
∴ Gain = 11x/10 – x
⇒ Gain = INR x/10 = 50
⇒ x = 500
Hence, C.P. of Nike shoe is INR 500

Q6. Direction: What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following number series?
499, 622, 868, 1237, 1729, 2344, ?
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
499 + 1*123 = 622; 622 + 2*123 = 868
868 + 3*123 = 1237; 1237 + 4*123 = 1729
1729 + 5*123 = 2344; 2344 + 6*123 = 3082
Q7. 1397 x 1397 = ?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:
| 1397 x 1397 | = (1397)2 |
| = (1400 - 3)2 | |
| = (1400)2 + (3)2 - (2 x 1400 x 3) | |
| = 1960000 + 9 - 8400 | |
| = 1960009 - 8400 | |
| = 1951609. |
