123.55
123.65
123.75
123.85

Answer: Option C

2. The ratio 5:20 expressed as percent equals to

3. Two students appeared at an examination. One of them secured 9 marks more than the other and his marks was 56% of the sum of their marks. The marks obtained by them are

42,30
42,31
42,32
42,33

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let their marks be (x+9) and x.
Then, x+9 = 56/100(x + 9 +x)
=> 25(x+9)
=> 14 (2x + 9)
=> 3x = 99
=> x = 33.
So, their marks are 42 and 33

4. In an examination, 34% of the students failed in mathematics and 42% failed in English. If 20% of the students failed in both the subjects, then find the percentage of students who passed in both the subjects.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Failed in mathematics, n(A) = 34
Failed in English, n(B) = 42

$\begin{aligned} n(A\cup B) = n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B) \\ = 34+42-20 = 56 \\ \text{Failed in either or both subjects are 56} \\ \text{Percentage passed = }(100-56)\% \\ = 44\% \end{aligned}$

5. What will be the fraction of 4%

1/20
1/50
1/75
1/25

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

4*1/100 = 1/25.

Friends I know it is quite simple, but trust me while solving percentage questions in Hurry we use to do these types of mistake only. So I recommend you to have a bit practise of this.
