Question 1 Explanation:
Answer: (a)
Number of extra sweets = 2 × 480 = 960
These sweets were to be distributed among 120 children.
Therefore number of sweets to be given to each child originally = $ \displaystyle \frac{960}{120}=8$
These sweets were to be distributed among 120 children.
Therefore number of sweets to be given to each child originally = $ \displaystyle \frac{960}{120}=8$

Question 2 Explanation:
Let the number of hens be a
And that of goats be b
Therefore
$ \displaystyle \begin{array}{l}a+b=90\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,..........\left( i \right)\\2a+4b=248\\\Rightarrow a+2b=124\\\Rightarrow 90-b+2b=124\\\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\left[ From\,\,equation\,\,\left( i \right) \right]\\\Rightarrow b=124-90=34\end{array}$
And that of goats be b
Therefore
$ \displaystyle \begin{array}{l}a+b=90\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,..........\left( i \right)\\2a+4b=248\\\Rightarrow a+2b=124\\\Rightarrow 90-b+2b=124\\\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\left[ From\,\,equation\,\,\left( i \right) \right]\\\Rightarrow b=124-90=34\end{array}$
Question 3 |
The cost of five chairs and three tables is Rs.3.110. Cost of one chair is Rs.210 less than cost of one table. What is the cost of two tables and two chairs?
Rs.1660 | |
Rs.1860 | |
Rs.2600 | |
Cannot be determined |
Question 3 Explanation:
$ \displaystyle \begin{array}{l}If\,\,\,the\,\,\,C.P\,\,of\,\,1\,\,chair\,\,be\,\,Rs.a\,\,then\,\,C.P\,\,of\,\,1\,\,table=Rs.\,\left( a+210 \right)\\5a+3\left( a+210 \right)=3110\\\Rightarrow 5a+3a+630=3110\\\Rightarrow 8a=3110-630=2480\\a=\frac{2480}{8}=310\\CP\,\,\,of\,\,\,two\,\,tables\,\,and\,\,two\,\,chairs\,\\=2\left( a+a+210 \right)=4a+420\\=4\times 310+420=Rs.\,1660\end{array}$

16 | |
Cannot be determined |
Question 4 Explanation:
Let the number of tickets of each value be t
$ \displaystyle \begin{array}{l}55t+85t+105t=2940\\\Rightarrow 245t=2940\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2940}{245}=12\end{array}$
$ \displaystyle \begin{array}{l}55t+85t+105t=2940\\\Rightarrow 245t=2940\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2940}{245}=12\end{array}$
