Aruna cut a cake into two halves and cuts one half into smaller pieces of equal size. Each of the small pieces is twenty grams in weight. If she has seven pieces of the cake in all with her, how heavy was the original cake ?

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

As from the question we have,
A = 3B --- (i)
c - 4 = 2(A+4) ---(ii)

Also, A + 4 = 31
or A = 31-4 = 27

Putting A = 27 in (i) we get
B = 9
Putting A = 27 in (ii) we get
C = 50

Answer: Option B

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the number of boys be x.
Then, 3/4 x = 18
=> x = 24

If total number of students is y, then
2/3 y = 24
=> y = 36

Number of girls in class = y - x
= 36 - 24 = 12

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

If we read given question carefully, we get,
B+8 = C ---(i)
A-8 = C-3 ---(ii)
A+6 = 2D ---(iii)
B+D = 50 ---(iv)

Putting C = A -5 from (ii) into (i), we have :
B+8 = A-5 or A-B = 13 ---(v)

Putting D = 50-B from (iv) and (iii), we have :

A+6 = 100-2B or A+2B = 94 ---(vi)

Solving (v) and (vi), we get
B = 27 and A = 40

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the number of keepers be x.
Then, total number of feet = 2*50+4*45+4*8+2x
= 2x + 312

Total number of heads = 50+45+8+x = 103 + x
Now, (2x+312) = (103+x)+224
=> x = 15
