If three numbers in the ratio 3 : 2: 5 be such that the sum of their squares is 1862, the middle number will be

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the numbers be 3x, 2x and 5x.
Then,
9x + 4x + 25x =1862
⇒ 38x = 1862
⇒ x = 49 ⇒ x = 7.
middle number = 2x = 14

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the first number is A and second number is B.

As per question

\begin{aligned}
\frac{40}{100}A = \frac{2}{3}B \\

\frac{A}{B} = \frac{2}{3}*\frac{100}{40} \\
\frac{A}{B} = \frac{5}{3} \\
=> A:B = 5:3

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

In this type of question, we will first try to calculate the ratio of two persons. Once we get ratio then we can easily get our answer. So lets solve this.

\begin{aligned}
\frac{4}{15}A = \frac{2}{5}B \\
A = \left(\frac{2}{5}*\frac{14}{4}\right)B \\
A = \frac{3}{2}B \\
\frac{A}{B} = \frac{3}{2} \\
A:B = 3:2 \\
\text{B's Share = }\frac{2}{5}*1210 = 484
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the boy are 8x and Girls are 5x

=> 5x = 200
=> x = 40

Total students = 8x+5x = 13x = 13(40) = 520

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let x is subtracted.
Then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{(6-x)}{(7-x)}< \frac{16}{21} \\

21(6—x) < 16(7—x)\\
=> 5x > 14 = x > 2.8
\end{aligned}

Least such number is 3
