Answers:

1. 3
2. 2 
Required percentage = 150/1600 * 100 = 9.375%

3. 1
Required answer = 130 + 140 + 150 = 420

4. 3
Required answer = 860 - 310 = 550

5. 5
Required answer = (1600 - 270)/1600 * 100
= 1330/16%
= 83.125%

6. 2
Let original price be Rs. x per kg.
Reduced price = 4x/5 per kg
400/(4x/5) - 400/x = 5
2000/4x - 400/x = 5
(2000 - 1600)/4x = 5
20x = 400 
x = 20
Reduce price 4x/5 = Rs. 16 per kg

7. 1
Let the deposited Rs. x at rate of 19% pa
Then
x * 19/100 + (20000 - x) 16/100 = 3440
19x - 16x + 320000 = 344000
3x = 24000
x = Rs. 8000

8. 5
Capacity of the vessel = 10/{1-(9/25)^(1/2)} = 10*5/2
= 25 litres

9. 2
Required number of days
= 1/(16/16*25 + 10/40*25) 
= 20

10. 3
Let 100 men complete the house in x days
Here 100 men worked for 19 days and 150 men worked for 8 days
19/x + 150*8/100x = 1
19/x + 12/x = 1
x = 31

Behind schedule = 31 - 27 = 4 days
