##### Mathematics and Pedagogy MCQ Question with Answer

Q31. A bicycle originally cost Rs. 100 and was discounted 10%. After three months it was sold after being discounted 15%. How much was the bicycle sold for ?

(a) Rs. 55.50

(b) Rs. 95.25

(c) Rs. 76.50

(d) None of these

 Answer: (c) Rs. 76.50Solution: Sold price of by-cycle = $100\times \frac{\left( 100-10 \right)}{100}\times \frac{\left( 100-15 \right)}{100}=76.50$Trick: Sold price after x%, y%, z% successive discount = $\mathrm{C}.\mathrm{P}\times \frac{\left( 100-\mathrm{x} \right)}{100}\times \frac{\left( 100-\mathrm{y} \right)}{100}\times \frac{\left( 100-\mathrm{z} \right)}{100}$

Q32. Which of the following fraction is the smallest?

$\frac{7}{6}, \frac{7}{9}, \frac{4}{5}, \frac{5}{7} \\ \left( \mathrm{a} \right) \,\,\frac{7}{6} \\ \left( \mathrm{b} \right) \,\,\frac{7}{9} \\ \left( \mathrm{c} \right) \,\,\frac{4}{5} \\ \left( \mathrm{d} \right) \,\,\frac{5}{7}$

 Answer: $\left( \mathrm{d} \right) \,\,\frac{5}{7}$Solution: LCM of 6, 9, 5, 7 = 630;Now $630\times \frac{7}{6}=735$ ;$630\times \frac{7}{9}=490$;$630\times \frac{4}{5}=504$;$630\times \frac{5}{7}=450$ (Smallest)

Q33. Which of the following fraction represent the given figure?

(a) $2\frac{1}{3}$

(b) $2\frac{2}{3}$

(c) $2\frac{1}{2}$

(d) $3\frac{1}{3}$

 Answer: (c) $2\frac{1}{2}$Solution: $1+1+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{2}=1\frac{1}{2}$

Q34. LCM of two numbers is 225 and their HCF is 5. If one number is 25, the other number will be:

(a) 5

(b) 25

(c) 45

(d) 225

 Answer: (c) 45Solution: X = $\frac{\mathrm{HCF}\times \mathrm{LCM}}{\mathrm{Given} \mathrm{Number}} \\ =\frac{5\times 225}{25}=45$

Q35. Simplify: $1+\frac{2}{1+\frac{3}{1+\frac{4}{5}}}$

(a) $\frac{7}{4}$

(b) $\frac{4}{7}$

(c) $\frac{7}{5}$

(d) $\frac{3}{7}$

 Answer: (a) $\frac{7}{4}$Solution: 1st ⇒ $1+\frac{4}{5}=\frac{9}{4}$;2nd ⇒ $1+\frac{3\times 5}{9}=\frac{8}{3}$;3rd ⇒ $1+\frac{2\times 3}{8}=\frac{7}{7}$

Q36. If the average marks of three batches of 55, 60 and 45 students respectively is 50, 55 and 60, then the average marks of all the students is :

(a) 54.68

(2) 53.33

(b) 55

(c) None of these

 Answer: (a) 54.68Solution: The required average mark= $\frac{55\times 50+60\times 55+45\times 60}{55+60+45}=54.6875$

Q37. A milkman bought 70 liters of milk for Rs. 630 and added 5 liters of water. If he sells it at Rs. 9.00 per liter, his profit percentage is :

(a) 8%

(b) 7%

(c) 8%

(d) $7\frac{1}{7}$%

 Answer: (d) $7\frac{1}{7}$%Solution:CP of 75 liters of mixture of milk and water = 630SP of 75 liters of mixture of milk and water = 9 × 75 = 675Gain = 675 – 630 = 45 Gain per cent = $\frac{45}{630}\times 100=7\frac{1}{7}$
