Fractions and Decimals If x/y = 0.3, then (2x - y)/(2x + y) = ? 0.5 0.5 0.15 0.25 0.5 0.5 0.15 0.25 ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP x = 0.3y Then, (y - 2x)/(y + 2x)= y - 2(0.3y)/y + 2(0.3y)= y - 0.6y/y + 0.6y= 0.4y/1.6y= 0.4/1.6 = 0.25
Fractions and Decimals A person was asked to state his age in years. His reply was , "Take my age 3 years hence, multiply it by 3 and subtract 3 times my age 3 years ago and you will know how old I am." What was the age of 17 19 18 16 17 19 18 16 ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP Let the present age of person be x years.Then, 3(x + 3) - 3(x - 3 ) = x <=> (3x + 9) - (3x - 9) = x <=> x = 18
Fractions and Decimals (.356 x .365 - 2 x .365 x .106 + .106 x .106) / (.632 x .632 + 2 x .632 x .368 +.368 x .368) = ? .625 62.5 6.25 .0625 .625 62.5 6.25 .0625 ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP Given expression = [(.356)² -2 x .356 x .106 + (.106)²] / [(.632)²+2 x .632 x .368 +(.368)²]= (a² -2ab + b²) / (c²+2cd+d²)= (a - b)² / (c + d)²= (.356 -.106)² / (.632 + .368)²= (.25)² = .0625
Fractions and Decimals Find the value of 2 x [(3.6 x 0.48 x 2.50) / (0.12 x 0.09 x 0.5)] 1400 1600 800 1200 1400 1600 800 1200 ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP 2 x [(3.6 x 0.48 x 2.50) / (0.12 x 0.09 x 0.5)]= 2 x [(36 x 48 x 250) / (12 x 9 x 5)]= 2 x 4 x 4 x 50 = 1600
Fractions and Decimals 3420 / 19 = ( ? / 0.01) x 7 9/45 9/30 9/35 9/40 9/45 9/30 9/35 9/40 ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP Let 3420 / 19 = (y / 0.01) x 7Then , y = ( 3420 / 19) x (0.01 / 7) = 180 / 700 = 9/35
Fractions and Decimals If the numerator of a fraction is increased by 2 and the denominator is increased by 1, the fraction because 5/8 and if the numerator of the same fraction is increased by 3 and the denominator is incr 1/7 2/7 3/7 4/7 1/7 2/7 3/7 4/7 ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP Let the original fraction be p/q Then, (p + 2) / (q + 1) = 5/8⇒ 8p - 5q = 11 .....(i)Again (p + 3) / (q + 1) = 3/4⇒ 4p - 3q = 9 ...(ii)Solving equations , (i) and (ii), we get ,p = 3 and q = 7∴ Fraction = 3/7
