Numerical Ability Quiz
1. A train travels 120 km in 2 hours. What is its average speed?

2. If the cost price of 10 pens is equal to the selling price of 8 pens, what is the profit percentage?
**Solution**: Let cost price of 1 pen be ₹x. Then, cost price of 10 pens = ₹10x, and selling price of 10 pens = cost price of 12.5 pens (since 10/8 = 1.25). Profit = 2.5x, Profit % = (2.5x / 10x) × 100 = 25%.
**Answer: B) 25%**
**Answer: B) 25%**
3. A sum of money doubles itself in 10 years at simple interest. What is the rate of interest per annum?
**Solution**: If the principal doubles in 10 years, interest equals the principal. Simple Interest = P × R × T / 100. Here, Interest = P, T = 10, so P = P × R × 10 / 100. Thus, R = 100 / 10 = 10%.
**Answer: B) 10%**
**Answer: B) 10%**
4. If 5 workers can build a wall in 10 days, how many days will 10 workers take?
**Solution**: Work = 5 workers × 10 days = 50 worker-days. For 10 workers, time = 50 / 10 = 5 days.
**Answer: C) 5 days**
**Answer: C) 5 days**
5. What is 15% of 200?
