shape Q1

(608.40 × ?) ÷ 225 + 37 = 375
    A. 115 B. 135 C. 130 D. 125


[latex]\frac {608.40 \times ?}{225} + 37 = 375[/latex]
[latex]\Rightarrow[/latex] 608.40 × ? = (375 – 37) × 225 = 76050 [latex]\Rightarrow[/latex] ? = 125
Hence, option D is correct.

shape Q2

12.25 × 7.2 + 84.33 = ?
    A. 182.51 B. 177.44 C. 174.33 D. 172.53


12.25 × 7.2 + 84.33 = 88.2 + 84.33 = 172.53
Hence, option D is correct.

shape Q3

12% of 555 + 15% of 666 = ?
    A. 166.5 B. 167.5 C. 168.5 D. 169.5


? = 12% of 555 + 15% of 666
[latex]\frac {12}{100} \times 555 + \frac {15}{100} \times 666[/latex]
= 12 × 5.55 + 15 × 6.66
= 66.6 + 99.9 = 166.5

shape Q4

84368 + 65466 – 72009 – 13964 = ?
    A. 61481 B. 62921 C. 63861 D. 64241


? = 84368 + 65466 – 72009 – 13964
= 149834 – 85973 = 63861
Hence, option C is correct.

shape Q5

85% of 620 + x% of 480 = 70% of 890
    A. 10% B. 20% C. 35% D. 40%


85% of 620 + x% of 480 = 70% of 890
527 + x × 480 ÷ 100 = 623
x × 4.8 = 623 – 527
x × 4.8 = 96
x = 20%
Hence, option B is correct.
