Salaries of Ravi and Sumit are in the ratio 2:3. If the salary of each is increased by Rs 4000, the new ratio becomes 40:57. What is Sumit present salary.

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let A salary be 2k
B salary be 3k and C salary be 5k

\begin{aligned}
\text{A's new salary = }\frac{115}{100}*2k \\
= \frac{23}{10}k \\
\text{B's new salary = }\frac{110}{100}*3k \\
= \frac{33}{10}k \\
\text{C's new salary = }\frac{120}{100}*5k \\
= 6k \\

\text{New ratio = }\\
\frac{23k}{10}:\frac{33k}{10}:6k \\
= 23:33:60 \\
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let A = 2x, B = 3x, C = 4x, then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{A}{B} = \frac{2x}{3x} = \frac{2}{3} \\
\frac{B}{C} = \frac{3x}{4x} = \frac{3}{4} \\
\frac{C}{A} = \frac{4x}{2x} = \frac{2}{1} \\

=> \frac{A}{B}:\frac{B}{C}:\frac{C}{A} \\
= \frac{2}{3}:\frac{3}{4}:\frac{2}{1} \\
= 8:9:24


\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the third number be x.
First Number (120/100)*x = 6x/5
Second Number (150/100)*x = 3x/2

Ratio = 6x/5:3x/2
=> 4:5

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
A:B = 2:3 \\
B:C = 4:5 = (4*\frac{3}{4} : 5*\frac{3}{4}) \\
= 3:\frac{15}{4} \\
C:D = 6:7 = (6*\frac{15}{24} : 7*\frac{15}{24}) \\
= \frac{15}{4}:\frac{35}{8} \\
A:B:C:D = 2:3:\frac{15}{4}:\frac{35}{8} \\
= 16:24:30:35
= 8:12:9
\end{aligned}

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
