30 ÷ 3 = 10

10 ÷ 2 = 5

Hence, option a.

Solution 6: A)

16% of 250 + 32% of 500 = ?

0.16 × 250 + 0.32 × 500 = ?

? = 40 + 160

? = 200

Hence, option a.

Solution 7: C)

? = 12 × 13 ÷ 3 + (2)3

? = 4 × 13 + 8

? = 52 + 8

? = 60

Hence, option c.

Solution 8: C)

25% of 120 + √225 + (2)2 = ?2

?2 = 30 + 15 + 4

?2 = 49

? = ±7

Hence, option c.

Solution 9: B)

3 × ?2 = 36 + 15 + 100 – 43

3 × ?2 = 51 + 57

?2 = 108 ÷ 3

?2 = 36

? = ±6

Hence, option b.

Solution 10: E)

28 + √144 + 144 ÷ (3)= ? – 4

28 + 12 + 144 ÷ 9 = ? – 4

? = 28 + 12 + 16 + 4

? = 60

Hence, option e.

Solution 11: B)

9.252 + (108.48 ÷ 3.89) = √? × 8.76

92 + (108 ÷ 4) ~ √? × 9

(81 + 27) ÷ 9 ~ √?

? ~122

? ~ 144 ~ 140

Hence, option b.

Solution 12: B)

14.992 – (299.78 ÷ 12.25) = ? × 4.89

152 – (300 ÷ 12) ~ ? × 5

225 – 25 ~ ? ×5

? ~ 200 ÷ 5

? ~ 40

Hence, option b.

Solution 13: A)

(7/12) × 179.89 + (15.34 × 4.89) = ?

(7/12) × 180 + (15 ×5) ~ ?

7 × 15 + 75 ~ ?

? ~ 105 + 75 ~ 180

Hence, option a.

Solution 14: D)

(√364 + 120.78) ÷ 6.78 = ? ÷ 3.88

(√361 + 121) ÷ 7 ~ ? ÷ 4

(19 + 121) ÷ 7 ~ ? ÷ 4

? ~ (140 ÷ 7) × 4

? ~ 80

Hence, option d.

Solution 15: A)

14.89% of 399.76 + (479.76 ÷ 12.34) = ?

15% of 400 + (480 ÷ 12) ~ ?

0.15 × 400 + 40 ~ ?

? ~ 60 + 40

? ~ 100

Hence, option a.

Solution 16: C)

From I:

x2 = 49

x = -7, 7

From II:

y+ 8y = 0

y(y + 8) = 0

y = 0, -8

XRelationy
-7<0
-7>-8
7>0
7>-8

So, the relationship between x and y cannot be established.

Hence, option c.

Solution 17: B)

From I:

x3 = -729

x = -9

From II:

y+ 13y + 40 = 0

y2 + 8y + 5y + 40 = 0

y(y + 8) + 5(y + 8) = 0

(y + 8)(y + 5) = 0

y = -8, -5

XRelationy
-9<-8
-9<-5

So, x < y

Hence, option b.

Solution 18: D)

From I:

x2 – x = 6

x2 – x – 6 = 0

x2 + 2x – 3x – 6 = 0

x(x + 2) – 3(x + 2) = 0

(x + 2)(x – 3) = 0

x = -2, 3

From II:

y2 + 7y + 10 = 0

y2 + 5y + 2y + 10 = 0

y(y + 5) + 2(y + 5) = 0

(y + 5)(y + 2) = 0

y = –5, -2

XRelationY
-2>-5
-2=-2
3>-5
3>-2

So, x ≥ y

Hence, option d.

Solution 19: A)

From I:

x2 – 25 = 0

x2 = 25

x = 5, -5

From II:

y3 = -216

y = -6

XRelationy
5>-6
-5>-6

So, x > y

Hence, option a.

Solution 20: D)

From I:

x2 + 13x + 42 = 0

x2 + 7x + 6x + 42 = 0

x(x + 7) + 6(x + 7) = 0

(x + 7)(x + 6) = 0

x = -7, -6

From II:

y2 + 15y + 56 = 0

y2 + 8y + 7y + 56 = 0

y(y + 8) + 7(y + 8) = 0

(y + 8)(y + 7) = 0

y = -8, -7

XRelationY
-7>-8
-7=-7
-6>-8
-6>-7

So, x ≥ y

Hence, option d.
