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 C

Explanation:

let x = 1k and y = 3k, so
\begin{aligned}
= \frac{7(k)+3(3k)}{2(k)+1(3k)} \\
= \frac{16k}{5k} \\
= 16:5
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let C = x. Then A = (x—20) and B = (x—40).
x + x - 20 + x - 40 = 120 Or x=60.
A:B:C = 40:20:60 = 2:1 :3.
B's share = Rs. 120*(1/6) = Rs. 20

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 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 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
