Pradeep invested 20% more than Mohit. Mohit invested 10% less than Raghu. Total = Rs.17880. Raghu invested:

Rs. 5000
Rs. 6000
Rs. 7000
Rs. 8000

Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Rs. 6000

1. Let Raghu = R. Mohit = 0.9R. Pradeep = 1.2 × 0.9R = 1.08R. 2. Sum: R + 0.9R + 1.08R = 2.98R = 17880. 3. R = 17880 / 2.98 = 6000. _Source: KMAT Karnataka 2023 PYQ Q.45_

If a:b = 2:3 and b:c = 4:5, then a:c equals:

8:15
10:15
6:15
8:10

Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. 8:15

1. Make b common: scale a:b 2:3 → 8:12 (×4); scale b:c 4:5 → 12:15 (×3). 2. Now a:b:c = 8:12:15, so a:c = 8:15. 3. Therefore 8:15. _Source: KMAT Karnataka 2022 PYQ Q.57_
