The number, whose 7% is 42 is:

(A) 300
(B) 400
(C) 500
(D) 600

Check Answer

(D) 600

Explanation

Solution: Let’s use the word “7% of” to mean multiplication, and the percent sign will be replaced by a fraction over 100. We’ll use the variable x for the unknown.

7% of x = 42, so: (7/100)x = 42

Solving for x: x = (42 × 100) / 7

This simplifies to: x = 600

So, the correct answer is: (D) 600

Background colour or effects applied on a document is not visible in:

(A) Print Layout View
(B) Web Layout View

If books bought at prices ranging from Rs.150 to Rs.300 are sold at prices ranging from Rs.250 to Rs.350, what is the greatest possible profit that might be made in selling 15 books?

(A) Rs.2000
(B) Rs.2500
(C) Rs.3000
(D) Rs.3500

Check Answer

(C) Rs.3000

Explanation

Solution: In order to maximize our profit, we use:

The lowest purchase price, which is Rs. 150.

The highest selling price, which is Rs. 350.

Profit earned on each book = Selling price – Purchase price = 350 – 150 = Rs. 200.

Profit earned on 15 books = 200 × 15 = Rs. 3,000.

Hence, the correct answer is: Rs. 3,000

Complete the Proverb: “Too many cooks spoil the _______.”

(A) Meat
(B) Broth
(C) Food
(D) Curry

Check Answer

(B) Broth

Explanation

The phrase “Too many cooks spoil the broth” reflects the reality that when too many people are involved in controlling the same process, confusion, error, and a bad outcome can result. When too many cooks add different ingredients to the broth, the soup, not the broth, becomes spoiled. Simple meaning: when too many people are interfering, the outcome of the process can become worse, not better.

Example: when five students are given the task to manage one group project, the outcome will not be good, as the students will quarrel among themselves.

In essence, the meaning of the phrase is that too many people can spoil the process.
