For making the tent, triple the cost of Rs. 5775 is required and if the price of 1 sq m. the tent is Rs. 250, then let us determine the height of the tent. Let us write by calculating, the air in the tent in liter.

Solution:

Given

The area of the base of a right circular conical tent is 13.86 sq.m. For making the tent, triple the cost of Rs. 5775 is required and if the price of 1 sq m. the tent is Rs. 250,

Let the base radius of the tent be r m, 

height be h m, and slant height be l m. 

The area of the base is 13.86 sq. m.

According to the condition, 22/7 r² = 13.86 

∴ r = 21 m.

The length of the radius is 2.1 m.

The quantity of triple in Rs. 5775 at the rate of Rs. 250 per meter = 5775/250 sq. m

= 23.1 sq.m.

∴ Curved (lateral) surface area = лrl sq.m = 23.1 sq.m

or, 22/7 x 21/10 x l = 23.1

∴ l= 7/2

∴ Slant height = 7/2 m = 3.5 m.

∴ h = + √l² – r² [height can not be negative]

=  √(3.5)-(2.1)

= √(3.5+2.1)x(3.5-2.1) 

= √5.6×1.4 

= √7.84

∴ Height = 2.8 m

∴ The air occupied in the tent = 1/3 22/7 2.1 2.8 

= 12.936 cum 

= 12936 cu dcm

= 12936 liters.

Solution: Radius of base of cone = (r) 15 cm

& slant height (l) 24 cm.

Curved surface area = πгl = 22/7 x 15 x 24 sq cm.

= 1131.43 sq cm.

= Total surface area = πr(r + l)

= 22/7 x 15 (15+24) sq cm.

= 22/7 x 15 x 39 sq cm. = 1838.57 sq cm.

Question 2. Let us determine the volume of the cone when 

1. base area is 1.54 sq.m. and height is 2.4 m, 

2. the length of a base diameter is 21m and the slant height is 17.5 m. 

Solution: Let radius = r m & height (h) = 2.4 m.

Base area = πr2 = 1.54

or, 22/7 r2 = 1.54 

∴ r2 = 1.54 x 7 / 22

= 0.49

∴ r= 0.49 

= 7

1. Volume of the cone = 1/3 πr2h

= 1/3 x 22/7 x 7/10 x 7/10 x 24/10 cu m.

= 1.232 cu m.

 2. Diameter = 21 m

∴ Radius = 21/2

= 10.5 m.

h²= l² – r²

=(17.5)²- (10.5)²

= 196

∴ h= √196

= 14 m.

Let us determine the curved surface area, total surface area, and volume of the solid which is formed by taking the side of length 15 cm which is formed by completely revolving the triangle once around the side of the triangle with the length of 15 cm, having been taken as an axis.

Solution:

Given

Amina has drawn a right-angled triangle whose lengths of two sides adjacent to the right angle are 15 cm and 20 cm.

Height of the cone (h) = 15 cm.

& Radius (r) = 20 cm.

∴ Slant height (l) = √h² +r²

= √15²+20²

= √225+400

= 625

= 25 cm.

Curve surface area = лrl = 22/7 x 20 x 25 = 1571.73 sq cm.

Total surface area of cone = лr(г+ l) = 22/7 x 20 x (20+25) sq cm.

= 22/7 x 20 x 45 2828.57 sqcm.

Volume of the cone = 1/3 πr²h

Solution:

If the height and slant height of a cone is 6 cm and 10 cm respectively,

Let the radius of the cone = r cm.

∴ r² = l²-h²

= (10)²- (6)²

= 100-36 

= 64

∴ r = √64 

= ± 8m.

As the radius cannot be negative

∴ radius (r) = 8 cm

∴ Total surface area of the cone = πг(г + l)

= 22/7 x 8 x (8+10) 

= 22/7 x 8 x 18 sq cm. 

= 452.57 sq cm.

Volume = 1/3 πr² = 1/3 x 8 x 8 x 6 cu cm.

= 402.28 cu cm.

Let the radius = r cm.

∴ 1/3 x 22/7x r2 x 12 = 100 x 22/7

4r² = 100

∴ r² = 25

r = √25

= 5

Slant height (l)=√h² + r²

= √12² +5²

= √144+25 

= √169 

= 13 cm.

=  38.5 sq cm.

Question 7. The base area of a right circular cone is 21 m and the height is 14 m. Let us calculate the expenditure to color the curved surface at the rate of Rs. 1.50 per sq.m.

Solution:

The base area of a right circular cone is 21 m and the height is 14 m.

Radius of a base of the cone (r) = 21/2 m. 

& height (h)= 14 m.

∴ Slant height (0) = √h²+r²

=(14)² + (21/2)²

=√1225/4

= 35/2m.

∴ Curved surface area of cone = πrl = 22/7 x 21/2 x 17.5

= 577.5 sq m.

Cost of coloring the curved surface area at the rate of Rs. 1.50/sq m.

= 5 cm.

The curved surface area of = πrl 

where l = slant height

According to the problem,

Trl Rs. 2.10 = Rs. 429

Or, 22/7 x 5 x l x2.10 = 429

 l = 429 x 7/22 x 1/5 x 10/21

= 13. cm.

∴Height = √l² – r²

= (13)² – (5)²

= 169-25

Solution:

Given

The quantity of iron sheet to make a boya of right circular conical shape is 75 3/7  m2. If the slant height of it is 5 m

Let the radius = rm, slant height = 5 m.

Total surface area = лr(r+l) = 528/7

or, 22/7 x r x (5+r)= 528/7

or, r(r+5)= 528/7 x 7/25

or, r2 + 5r – 24 = 0

(r+8)(r-3) = 0

= r = -8  or,3.[But radius cannot be negative]

r=3

∴Height = √l²- r²

= √(5)²-(3)²

= √25-9 

= √16 

= 4.

Volume of air in the boya = 1/3лr2h = 1/3 x 22/7 x 3 x 3 x 4

If the volume of a right circular cone is V cubic unit, the base area is A sq. unit and the height is H unit

Let the radius = r unit & height = h unit.

∴ V = 1/3 πr²h; 

А= r², H = h

AH/V = πr² xh / 1/3 πr²h 

= 3  

Question 4. The numerical values of the volume and the lateral surface area of a right circular cone are equal. If the height and the radius of the cone are H unit and r unit respectively, then let us write the value of 1/h² + 1/r²

Solution.

Given

The numerical values of the volume and the lateral surface area of a right circular cone are equal. If the height and the radius of the cone are H unit and r unit respectively,

The volume of the cone = 1/3 πr²h cu unit.

Surface area =πrl=sq unit. [l= slant height]

1/3 лr²h = лrl

1/3 rh = l

= 1/9 r²h² = l²

=h² + r² [as (2 = h² + r²]

or , 1/9 = h² / r²h² + r²/r²h²

or, 1/9 = 1/r² + 1/h²

∴1/h² + 1/r² = 1/9

Question 5. The ratio of the lengths of the base radii of a right circular cylinder and a right circular cone is 3: 4 and the ratio of their heights is 2: 3; let us write the ratio of the volumes of the cylinder and the cone.

Solution.

Given

The ratio of the lengths of the base radii of a right circular cylinder and a right circular cone is 3: 4 and the ratio of their heights is 2: 3

Let the radius of the base of the cylinder = 3x unit &

radius of base of cone = 4x unit.

Again, the height of the cylinder = 2y unit &

height of the cone = 3y unit

Volume of cylinder / Volume of cone = л(3x)² x 2y / 1/3 л(4x)²x3y

= 9x² x 2y / 1/3 x 16x² x 3y

= 9/16

∴The ratio of the volume of cylinder and volume of cone = 9: 8.

Question 3. AP and AQ are two tangents drawn from an external point A to a circle with centre O. P and Q are points of contact. If PR is a diameter, let us prove that OA || RQ. 

Solution:

Given

AP and AQ are two tangents drawn from an external point A to a circle with centre O. P and Q are points of contact. If PR is a diameter,

AP & AQ are two tangents to the circle with centre O, from an external point A. 

∴ PA = QA & ∠AOP = ∠AOQ

Now in ΔPOR & ΔQOR,

OP = OQ,  ∠POR = ∠QOR & OR is common.

∴ ΔPOR ≅ ΔQOR

PR = QR

<PRO = <QRO

OR is standing on PQ

& ∠PRO = ∠QRO

∴ QR ⊥ PQ

i.e., OA⊥OQ 

Again, PR = QR

Question 4. Let us prove that for a quadrilateral circumscribed about a circle, the angles subtended by any two opposite sides at the centres are supplementary to each other. 

Solution: ‘O’ is the centre of the circle. ABCD is a quadrilateral circumscribing the circle.

Let the circle touch the sides of the quadrilateral AB, BC, CD & DA at P, Q, R, S respectively.

∴ To prove, ∠AOB +∠COD = 180° 

or ∠AOD +∠BOC = 180°

Proof: As AP & AS are two tangents of the circle from A

∴ ∠AOP = ∠AOS

Similarly, ∠BOP = ∠BOQ

∴ ∠AOB=  ∠AOP + ∠BOP = ∠AOS + ∠BOQ

Again, DS & DR are two tangents as S & R

∴ ∠DOS = <DOR

Similarly from tangents R & Q

∠COR = ∠COQ

∴ ∠COD = ∠COR+ ∠DOR= ∠COQ + ∠DOS

∴ ∠AOB + ∠COD = ∠AOS + ∠BOQ + ∠COQ + <DOS

= (∠AOS + ∠DOS) + (∠BOQ + ∠COQ)

= ∠AOD + ∠BOC.

Again, ∠AOB + ∠BOC+ ∠COD +∠DOA = 360°

 or, (∠AOB +∠COD) + (∠AOB + ∠COD) = 360°

∴ 2x (∠AOB + ∠COD) = 360°

∴ 2 x (∠AOB + ∠COD) = 360°

WBBSE Solutions For Class 10 Maths Chapter 15 Theorems Related To Tangent Of A Circle 4

∴ ∠AOB + ∠COD = 360°/2 = 180°

or, 2(∠AOD + ∠BOC) = 360°

∴ ∠AOD + ∠BOC= 360°/ 2

= 180° Proved.

Question 5. Let us prove that a parallelogram circumscribed by a circle is a rhombus. 

Solution: Let O is the centre of the circle & ABCD is a parallelogram circumscribing the circle. The circle touches the parallelogram at P, Q, R & S.

Join AO, PQ, BO, QO, RO & SO.

To prove ABCD is a rhombus

WBBSE Solutions For Class 10 Maths Chapter 15 Theorems Related To Tangent Of A Circle Exercise 15.2

Proof: AP & AS are two tangents at P & S.

∴ AP = AS & ∠AOP = ∠AOS.

Similarly, in the case of tangent BP & BQ

BP = PQ & ∠BOP =∠BOQ

Again, in the case of tangents SD & RD

SD = RD & ∠ODS = ∠ODR

Now in As BOP & BOQ,

1 ∠OPB = ∠OQB = 90°

2 ∠BOP = ∠BOQ & BP = BQ

∴ ΔBOP ≅ ΔBQO

∴ ∠PBO = ∠QBO

Similarly, from ΔDOS & ΔDOR we get ∠SDO = ∠RDO

Now, in a parallelogram ABCD, ∠ABC & ∠ADC are two opposite angles.

∴ ∠ABC = ∠ADC = ∠PBO = ∠RDO. 

Now in Δs BOP & ROD

∠BPO = ∠DRO; ∠PBO = ∠RDO & OP = OR

∴ ΔBOP ≅  ΔROD

∴ PB = DR

.. PB = SD

Now, AP + PB = AS + SD

i.e., AB = AD

∴ AB = BC = CD = DA.

∴ All the sides of the parallelogram ABCD are equal.

∴ ABCD is a rhombus.

6. Two circles drawn with centres A and B touch each other externally at C. O is a point on the tangent drawn at C, OD and OE are tangents drawn to the two circles of centres A and B respectively. If ZCOD = 56°, ZCOE = 40°, ACD = x° and BCE = y°, let us prove that OD OC = OE and y – x = 8

Solution:

Given

Two circles drawn with centres A and B touch each other externally at C. O is a point on the tangent drawn at C, OD and OE are tangents drawn to the two circles of centres A and B respectively. If ZCOD = 56°, ZCOE = 40°, ACD = x° and BCE = y°

COD = 56°,

COE = 40°,

ACD = x°

& BCE = y°

To prove OD = OC = OE & y-x=8

Proof: OD & OC are two tangents to the circle with centre A at points D and C. 

∴ OD = OC & ∠ODC = ∠OCD

Again, OD & OE are two tangents of the circle with centre B at the points C & E 

∴ OC = OE & ∠OEC = ∠OCE

∴ OD = OC = OE

∠COD = 56° & ∠COE = 40° (given)

Let ∠ACD=x° & ∠BCE = y°

∴ ∠OCD = 180°-56°/2

= 124° / 2

= 62°

OC is the common tangent of the two circles & AB

is a straight line joining the centres?

∴ OC ⊥ AB

∴ ∠OCA = ∠OCB = 90°

∠ACD=90° – ∠OCD 90° = 62°- 28°.

∴ x = 28°

Again, ∠OCE= 180°-40° / 2

= 140°/2

= 70°

∠BCE = 90° – ∠OCE = 90°-70° 

= 20°

∴ y = 20°

∴ x – y = 28° -20° = 8 Proved.

Solution:

Given

Two circles with centres A and B touch each other internally. Another circle touches the larger circle externally at point x and the smaller circle externally at point y. If O is the centre of that circle

To prove AO+ BO = Constant

Join O, X, O, Y, O, A & Y, B

Two circles with centres A & B

The point of contact is on the line joining centres A &

centre B.

Again, the two circles with centre O & centre B, touch externally at Y.

Point Y is on the line joining YB.

Again, the two circles with centre O & A touch internally at X.

Point X is on the line joining OX.

Now, OA = AS – OX & OB = OY + YB

∴ AO+ BO = AX – OX + OY + YB 

= AX – OX + OX + YB.

AO + BO = AX + YB

= Constant Proved.

Question 8. Two circles have been drawn with centres A and B which touch each other externally at the point O. I draw a straight line passing through point O which intersects the two circles at P and Q respectively. Let us prove that AP || BQ. 

Solution:

Given

Two circles have been drawn with centres A and B which touch each other externally at the point O. I draw a straight line passing through point O which intersects the two circles at P and Q respectively.

To prove AP || BQ.

Join A, P & B, Q

In ΔAOP, AO = AP (Radius)

∴ ΔAOP is an issoceles triangle. 

∴ ∠APO = ∠AOP

In ΔBOQ, BO = BQ (Radius) 

∴ ΔBOQ is an issoceles triangle.

∴ ∠BOQ = ∠QOB

Now, the two circles with centres A & B touch externally at O,

AB is the line joining their centres.

∴ ∠AOP = ∠BOQ (vertically opposite)

:. ∠APO = ∠BQO

PQ cuts AP & BQ at P & Q, & produces two equal angles.

∴ They are alternate angles.

∴ AP || BQ Proved.

Question 9. Three equal circles touch one another externally. Let us prove that the centres of the three circles form an equilateral triangle.

Solution: Let the circles with centres A, B, and C touch externally at points P, Q and R. To prove ABC is an equilateral triangle.

Proof: Two circles with centres A & B touch each other at P.

∴ Point P is on the line, AB, joining the centre.

Similarly, point Q is on line BC & point R is on line CA.

As the radii of the three circles are equal, AP = PB = BQ = QC = CR + RA

∴ AP + PB = BQ + QC = CR + RA

i.e., AB = BC = CA

∴ ΔABC is an equilateral triangle.

Question 10. Two tangents AB and AC drew from an external point A of a circle touch the circle at points B and C. A tangent drawn to point X lies on the minor arc BC intersects AB and AC at points D and E respectively. Let us prove which perimeter of AADE = 2AB.

Solution:

Given

Two tangents AB and AC drew from an external point A of a circle touch the circle at points B and C. A tangent drawn to point X lies on the minor arc BC intersects AB and AC at points D and E respectively.

To prove the perimeter of ΔADE = 2AB

Let O is the centre of the circle.

Join O,B, O,C, O,D & O,X In Quadrilateral OXDB

∠OBD = ∠OXD = 90°

∴ OXDB is a cyclic quadrilateral

whose OD is a diagonal?

Now in ΔOBD & ΔOXD,

1 OB = OX (Radii of the same circle)

2 OD common

& 3 ∠OBD = ∠OXD = 90°

∴ ΔOBD ≅ ΔOXD

∴ BD = DX

Similarly CE = XE

∴ (AD + DX) + (AE + EX) = (AD + BD) + (AE + CE)

AB+ AC = 2AB [∴ AB = AC]

Again, (AD + DX) + (AE + EX) AD+DE+ AE = Perimeter of ΔADE

∴ The perimeter of ΔADE = 2AB Proved.

Let ‘R’ be the center.

∴ ΔRBP is a cyclic quadrilateral.

∴ ∠A + ∠B 180°

∴ ∠ARB + ∠P = 180°

∴ ∠ARB = 2∠ACB

∴ 2∠ARB + P = 180°——(1)

Similarly, 2∠DAO + ∠Q = 180°

or, 2∠CBO + ∠Q = 180°——-(2)

∴ 2∠ACB + 2∠CBO + ∠P + Q = 360°

But if the length of the outer diameter of a hollow iron cylinder with a height of 25 cm is 14 cm and the length of its inner diameter of it is 10 cm and if by melting the cylinder, a solid right circular cone having half of its height is made, then let us determine the length of the base diameter of the cone.

Solution:

Given

The length of the outer diameter of a hollow iron cylinder with a height of 25 cm is 14 cm and the length of its inner diameter of it is 10 cm and if by melting the cylinder, a solid right circular cone having half of its height is made

The length of the outer radius of the hollows cylinder (R) = 14/2 cm = 7 cm

the length of the inner radius (r) = 10/2 cm = 5cm,

and the height of the cylinder = 25cm.

∴ The quantity of iron in the cylinder =  π(R² – r²). 

height = (7² – 5²) x 25 cm3

=π x 24 x 25 cm3

The height of the solid cone =  25/2 cm.

Application 2. The length of the external diameter of the face of a hemispherical bowl made of the silver sheet is 8 cm and the length of the internal diameter of it is 4 cm. By melting the bowl a solid cone is made whose diameter is 8 cm in length. Let us O calculate the height of the cone. 

Solution:

Given

The length of the external diameter of the face of a hemispherical bowl made of the silver sheet is 8 cm and the length of the internal diameter of it is 4 cm. By melting the bowl a solid cone is made whose diameter is 8 cm in length.

External radius of the hemispherical bowl = 8/2 cm = 4 cm.

& Internal radius of the hemispherical bowl = 4/2 cm = 2 cm.

The radius of the base of the solid cone = 8/2 cm = 4cm

Let the height of the cone = h cm.

According to the problem, the volume of the cone = Volume of the hemispherical bowl.

or, 1/3  π x (4)² x h = 2/3 π x (4³-2³)

= 1/3 π x 16 x h = 2/3 x π x (34-8)

16h = 2 x 56

∴ h = 2×56 / 16

= 7

∴ height of the cone = 7 cm.

Application 3. There is some water in the right circular drum. A conical iron piece having a diameter of 2.8 dcm and a height of 3 dcm is immersed completely in this water. For this, the water level of the drum is raised by 0.64 dcm. Let us determine the base diameter of the drum.

Solution:

Given

There is some water in the right circular drum. A conical iron piece having a diameter of 2.8 dcm and a height of 3 dcm is immersed completely in this water. For this, the water level of the drum is raised by 0.64 dcm.

The length of the base radius of the cone = 28/2 dcm = 1.4 dcm

and height= 3 dcm.

∴ Volume of the cone = 1/3 π x (1.4)² x 3 dcm³

Let the length of the base radius of the drum be r dcm.

For immersing the conical iron piece into the water of the drum, the water level is raised by 0.64 dcm.

∴ The volume of increased water in the drum = Volume of the conical iron piece.

∴ πr² x 0.64 = (1.4)² x 3 or, r² = ± 1.4×1.4/0.64

or, r± 3.0625

But the length of the radius can not be negative.    ∴ r= -3.0625

∴ r = 3.0625

∴ The length of the base diameter of the drum = 2 x 3.0625 

= 6.125 dcm.

The length of the base diameter of the drum = 6.125 dcm.

After immersing the spheres, the height of the water level is increased by 7 cm than it was before the immersion of the spheres into water. Let us determine the length of the diameter of the spheres.

Solution:

Given

There is some water in the right circular cylinder with a diameter of 28 cm. Three solid iron spheres can be immersed completely into it. After immersing the spheres, the height of the water level is increased by 7 cm than it was before the immersion of the spheres into water.

Let the radius of the sphere = r cm.

∴ The volume of the 3 spheres = 3 x 4/3 πr³ cu cm.

The radius of the base of the cylinder = 28/2 cm = 14 cm.

After immersing the spheres, the height of the water level is increased by 7 cm. 

∴ The volume of the 3 spheres volume of increased water in the cylinder

3 x 4/3 πr³ = π x 14 x14x7

∴ r³=7x7x7

∴ The diameter of each sphere = 2 x 7 cm = 14 cm.

∴ r=7

The length of the diameter of the spheres. = 14 cm.

Application 5. If recasting a solid metallic sphere of radius 2.1 cm into a right circular rod, then let us write by calculating, the length of diameter of the rod. 

Solution:

Given

If recasting a solid metallic sphere of radius 2.1 cm into a right circular rod,

Let us determine the ratio of total surface areas of the rod and sphere.

Let the length of the right circular rod be r cm.

According to the condition, r² x7 = 4/3π x (21)³ [ 2.1 dcm = 21 cm]

r² = 4/3 x 21x21x21/7       or, r = ±42

so, r ≠  -42

∴ r = +42

∴ The length of the radius of the rod is 42 cm.

∴ The length of diameter of the rod is 84cm.

∴ The ratio of total surface areas of the rod and the sphere is = 1: 3696.

Question 1. There is a solid iron pillar in front of Anowar’s house whose lower portion is right circular cylinder shaped and upper portion is cone shaped. The length of their base diameter is 20 cm, the height of the cylindrical portion is 2.8 m and the height of the conical portion is 42 cm. If the weight of 1 cm3 iron is 7.2 gm, then let us calculate the weight of the iron pillar.

Solution:

Given

There is a solid iron pillar in front of Anowar’s house whose lower portion is right circular cylinder shaped and upper portion is cone shaped. The length of their base diameter is 20 cm, the height of the cylindrical portion is 2.8 m and the height of the conical portion is 42 cm. If the weight of 1 cm3 iron is 7.2 gm,

Radius of the base of solid iron sphere = 20/2 cm = 10 cm

Height of the cylindrical portion = 2.8m = 280 cm. 

∴ The volume of the cylindrical portion = лr²h cu cm.

= 22/7 x 10 x 10 x 280 cu cm = 88000 cu cm.

& Volume of the conical portion = 1/3 лr2h cu cm.

= 1/3 x 22/7 x 10 x 10 x 42 cu cm = 4400 cu cm.

∴ The total volume of the iron pillar = (88000+ 4400) cu cm. 

= 92400 cu cm.

The total volume of the iron pillar = 92400 cu cm.

Question 2. The height of a solid right circular cone is 20 cm. and its slant height is 25 cm. If the height of a solid right circular cylinder, having as much volume as that of the cone, is 15 cm., then let us calculate the base diameter of the cylinder.

Solution:

Given

The height of a solid right circular cone is 20 cm. and its slant height is 25 cm. If the height of a solid right circular cylinder, having as much volume as that of the cone, is 15 cm

Let the radius of the base of the cone = r1 cm

∴ \((\text { Slant height })^2=(\text { radius })^2+(\text { height })^2\)

or, \((25)^2=r_1^2+(20)^2\)

or, \(r_1{ }^2=625-400=225\)

∴ \(r_1=\sqrt{225}=15\)

∴ Volume of the cone = \(\frac{1}{3} \pi r_2^2 \times \text { height }\)

= \(\frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 15 \times 15 \times 20 \mathrm{cucm}\)

Again let the radius of the base of the cylinder = r2 cm

∴ Volume of the cone = \(\pi r_2^2 \times \text { height }\)

∴ According to the problem,

\(\frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 15 \times 15 \times 20=\pi \times r^2 \times 15\)  [As height of the cylinder = 15 cm].

\(r_2{ }^2=100\)

∴ \(r_2=\sqrt{100}=10\)

∴ Diameter of the base of the cylinder = 2r2 = 2 x 10 cm = 20 cm.

Question 3. There is some water in the right circular cylindrical can with a diameter of 24 cm. If 60 solid conical iron pieces with a base diameter of 6 cm and height of 4 cm are immersed completely in the water, then let us write by calculating, the increased height of the water level.

Solution:

Given

There is some water in the right circular cylindrical can with a diameter of 24 cm. If 60 solid conical iron pieces with a base diameter of 6 cm and height of 4 cm are immersed completely in the water,

Radius of the base of the cone = 6/2 cm = 3cm.

Volume of 60 cones = 60 xπ (3)² x 4 cu cm.

Let after immersing the cones, the height of water in the cylinder increased by h cm.

∴ The volume of increased water in the cylinder = (Tr²h)

∴ According to the problem,

The volume of increased water = Volume of 60 cones

π x 12 x 12 x h = 60×1/3π×3×3×4

∴ h= 60×3×4 / 12×12

= 5

∴ Increased height of water = 5 cm.

Question 4. If the ratio of the curved surface areas of a solid cone and a solid right circular cylinder having the same base radii and same height is 5: 8, then let us determine the ratio of their base radii and heights.

Solution:

Given

If the ratio of the curved surface areas of a solid cone and a solid right circular cylinder having the same base radii and same height is 5: 8

Let the height & radius of the base of the cone be h units & r units respectively.

∴ Slant height (l) = √h² +2 units.

∴ Area of the curved surface of cone = πrl = πr(h² + r²) sq units.

Area of the curved surface of cylinder = 2лrh where, height

& radius of the base of the cylinder = h & r respectively

πrx √h²+r²/ 2πrh = 5/8

∴ √h² +r² = 5/8

or,h² +r² /2h = 25/16

Or,1 + r²/h² = 25/16

r²/h² = 25/16 – 1

= 25-16 / 16

= 9/16

∴ r/h = √9/16

= 3/4

∴The ratio of the radius of base: height = 3: 4.

Question 5. By melting a solid iron sphere with 8 cm of radius, how many marble balls of 1 cm diameter can be obtained let us write by calculating it.

Solution: Volume of the sphere of radius 8 cm = 4/3 π (8)³

= 4/3 π x 8 x 8 x 8 cu cm.

Now the radius of a small (marble) sphere = 1/2 cm.

The volume of marble balls = 4/3 π(1/2)³

= 4/3π x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 cu cm.

∴ Number of marble balls = 4/3π x 8 x 8 x 8 / 4/3π x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 

= 8 x 2 x 8 x 2 x 8 x 2

= 4096.

Number of marble balls = 4096.

Question 6. The base radius of a solid right circular iron rod is 32 cm and its length is 35 cm. Let us calculate the number of solid cones of 8 cm radius and 28 cm height that can be made by melting this rod.

Solution:

Given

The base radius of a solid right circular iron rod is 32 cm and its length is 35 cm.

Let the number of cones to be made = n

∴ Volume of n cones = n x 1/3 π²h

=n x 1/3 π (8)² x 28 cu cm.  [Since radius = 8 cm & height = 28 cm.]

Again volume of a big cylinder with a radius of 32 cm & height = is 35 cm.

= π (32)² × 35

According to the problem,

n x 1/3π x 8 x 8 x 28 

= 1/3 π x 32 x 32 x35

∴ n = 20 x 3 = 60

∴ The number of cones = 60.

∴ Diameter of base of cone = One edge of cube 4.2 dcm.

∴ The radius of the base of cone R = 4.2/2 

= 2.1 dcm.

∴ The volume of the cone = 1/3 πr²h

= 1/3  x 22/7 2.1 x 2.1 x 4.2 cu dcm

= 1/3 x 22/7 x 21/10 x 21/ x  42/10 cu dcm.

= 22x21x42 / 10×10×10

= 19.4 cu dcm.

The volume of the cone = 19.4 cu dcm.

Question 8. If the radii and the volumes of a solid sphere and a solid right circular cylinder are equal then let us calculate the ratio of the radius and height of the cylinder. 

Solution: Let the radius of the sphere & cylinder = r units 

& height cylinder = h units. 

∴ The volume of the sphere = Volume of the cylinder

or, 4/3 π = r²h

∴ 4/3r = h

∴ r/h = 3/4

∴ Ratio of radius & height = 3: 4

Question 9. Let us determine the number of solid spheres with a diameter of 2.1 dcm. can be made by melting a solid copper rectangular parallelopiped piece with a length of 6.6 dcm, and a breadth of 4.2 dcm. and thickness of 1.4 dcm and also calculate the quantity of metal in dcm3 in each sphere.

Solution: Volume of solid rectangular parallelopiped = Area of base x height = 6.6 x 4.2 x 1.4 cu dcm.

The volume of n sphere = nx4/3 πx (2.1 / 2)³ cu dcm, 

where radius = 2.1/2  dcm.

According to the problem, 

= n x 4/3 x 22/7 x 21/20 x 21/20 x 21/20  

or, n x 21/2 

= 3 x 2 x 14

N = 3 x 2 x 14 x 2 / 21 

= 8.

∴ 8 solid spheres can be made & a volume of metal in each sphere

4/3 x  22/7 x 21/20 x 21/20 cu dcm

= 4.851 cu dcm.

4.851 cu dcm quantity of metal in dcm³ in each sphere.

Question 10. Let us determine the length of a right circular rod of 2.8 cm diameter made by recasting a solid gold sphere of 4.2 cm radius.

Solution: Let the height of the cylinder rod = h = cm

∴ The volume of the cylinder rod = π (2.8/2)² x h cu cm. [as radius = 1.4 cm.]

The volume of the sphere = (4.2)³ cu cm [as the radius of the sphere = 4.2 cm.]

According to the problem,

π(1.4)²x h = 4/3 π(4.2)³

or, 14/10 x 14/10 h = 4/3 x 42/10 x 42/10 x42/10

∴ Height of cylinder rod = 50.4 cm.

Question 11. If a solid silver sphere of a diameter of 6 dom le melted and recast Into a solid right circular rod, then let us determine the length of the diameter of the rod. 6

Solution:

Given

A solid silver sphere of a diameter of 6 dom le melted and recast Into a solid right circular rod

Radius of sphere = 6/2 dcm = 3 dcm.

∴ The volume of the sphere = 4/3 π(3)³ cu dom.

If the radius of the cylinder rod = r dcm.

∴  Its volume = πr²h = 22/7 x r2 x 1 cu dcm.

According to the condition,

πr²x1 = 4/3 π x 3 x 3 x 3

r² = 36      ∴ r = √36 = 6 dcm.

Diameter of the rod = 2r

= 2 x 6 dcm 

= 12 dcm.

The length of the diameter of the rod = 12 dcm.

Question 12. The length of the radius of the cross-section of a solid right circular rod is 3.2 dcm. By melting the rod 21 solid spheres are made. If the radius of the sphere is 8cm., then let us determine the length of the rod.

Solution:

Given

The length of the radius of the cross-section of a solid right circular rod is 3.2 dcm. By melting the rod 21 solid spheres are made. If the radius of the sphere is 8cm.,

The radius of each sphere = 8 cm.

∴ Volume of 21 spheres = 21 x 4/3π(8)³ cu cm.

Let the height of the cylindrical rod = h cm.

& Radius of base = 3.2 dcm = 32 cm.

∴ The volume of the cylindrical rod = πr²h 

= π(32)²h

According to the problem,

π(32 x 32) x h = 21 × (8×8×8)

h = 4x8x8x8x7/32 x 32

= 14 cm.

∴ Height of the rod = 14 cm.

Question 13. Half of a tank of 21 dcm in length, 11 dcm. the breadth and 6 dcm depth is full of water. Now if 100 iron spheres of 21 cm diameter is immersed completely into the water of this tank, then let us calculate the rise of water level in dcm. 

Solution:

Given

Half of a tank of 21 dcm in length, 11 dcm. the breadth and 6 dcm depth is full of water. Now if 100 iron spheres of 21 cm diameter is immersed completely into the water of this tank

Diameter of the sphere = 2.1 dcm

∴ Radius (r) = 2.1/2 dcm.

∴ The volume of each sphere = 4/3 πx (2.1 / 2) cu dcm.

∴The volume of 100 spheres = 100 x 4/3 x 22/7 x 21/20 x 21/20 x 21/20 cu dcm.

Let after immersing 100 spheres, the height of the water level rises by h dcm. 

∴ The volume of increased water = 21 x 11 x h cu dcm. 

According to the problem,

21 x 11 x h = 100 x 4/3 x 22/7 x 21/20 x 21/20 x 21/10

h = 21/10 = 2.1 dcm.

∴ The water level will rise by 2.1 dcm.

Question 14. Let us determine the ratio of volumes of a solid cone, a solid hemisphere, and a solid cylinder of the same base diameter and same height.

Solution: Diameter & height of cone, hemisphere & cylinder are equal

∴ The length of their radius is also equal

Let the radius of cone = radius of hemisphere = radius of cylinder = r unit

Now the height of hemisphere = radius of hemisphere = r unit.

.. Volume of cone: Volume of the hemisphere: Volume of cylinder

= 1/3πr² r:πr³ : πr² .

= 1/3 : 2/3 : 1

= 1:2:3

The ratio of volumes = 1:2:3

Question 15. The external radius of a hollow sphere made of a lead sheet of 1 cm thickness is 6 cm If melting the sphere, a solid right circular rod of 2 cm radius is made, then let us calculate the length of the rod.

Solution:

Given

The external radius of a hollow sphere made of a lead sheet of 1 cm thickness is 6 cm If melting the sphere, a solid right circular rod of 2 cm radius is made,

External radius of the hollow sphere is 6 cm.

& Internal radius of the hollow sphere = (6-1) = 5 cm.

∴ Volume of the hollow sphere = 4/3π {6³ – 5³}

= 4/3π (216 – 125) cu cm.

= 4/3 π x 91 cu cm.

Let the height of the rod = h cm.

The volume of a solid cylindrical rod = π(2)2 x h [as the radius of the rod = 2 cm.]

∴ According to the problem,

π(2) h = 4/3 π x 91

4h = 4 x 31 / 3

∴ h = 91/3

= 30.33 cm.

The length of the rod = 30.33 cm.

Question 16. The cross-section of a rectangular parallelopiped wooden log of 2m in length is a square and each of its sides is 14 dcm in length. If this log can be converted into a right circular log by wasting a minimum amount of wood, then let us calculate what amount of wood (in m3) will be wasted.

[Hints: The circumcircle is inscribed in a rectangular figure, the length of the diameter of the circle is equal to the length of the side of the square.]

Solution:

Given

The cross-section of a rectangular parallelopiped wooden log of 2m in length is a square and each of its sides is 14 dcm in length. If this log can be converted into a right circular log by wasting a minimum amount of wood,

Length of each side of the square base of the rectangular parallelopiped of wooden log 14 dcm = 1.4 m.

& the height of wooden log = 2 m.

∴ The volume of the wooden log = Area of base x height

= 1.4 x 1.4 x 2 cu m = 3.92 cu m.

As the diameter of the wooden log = 1.4 m.

∴ radius of the wooden log = 1.4/2 = 0.7 m.

∴ The volume of wood in the remaining portion of the log

= Area of circular base x height

= π(-7)² x 2 cu m. = 3.08 cu.m.

∴ The volume of wood that remained in it = 3.08 cu m.

The amount of wood (in m³) will be wasted = (3.92 -3.08) cu m 

= 0.84 cu m.

0.84 cu m amount of wood (in m³) will be wasted.

Question 13. On the curved surface of the axis of a globe with a length of 14 cm radius, two circular holes are made, each of which has a length of radius 0.7 cm. Let us calculate the area of the metal sheet surrounding its curved surface. 

Solution:

Given

On the curved surface of the axis of a globe with a length of 14 cm radius, two circular holes are made, each of which has a length of radius 0.7 cm.

Radius of the globe = 14 cm

Surface area of the globe = 4π  x 14 x 14 = 4 x 22/7 x 14 x 14

= 2464 sq cm.

Radius of each hole = 0.7 cm.

∴ Area of two holes = 2 × π (0.7)³ = 2 × 22/7 x 7/10 x 7/10

= 308/100

= 3.08 sq cm.

∴ Area of the metal sheet surrounding its curved surface = (2464 – 3.08) sq cm

= 2460.92 sq cm.

Question 14. Let us write by calculating how many marbles with lengths of 1 cm radius may be formed by melting solid sphere of iron having an 8 cm length of radius.

Radius of the small sphere = 1 cm.

Volume of each small sphere = 4/3 (1)³ cu cm.

.. No. of small solid spheres may be formed from the big solid sphere

= 4/3π (8)³ / 4/3π (1)³

= 8x8x8/1x1x1.

= 512.

No. of small solid spheres may be formed from the big solid sphere = 512.

Question 2. The curved surface area of a solid sphere is equal to the surface area of a solid right circular cylinder. The lengths of both height and diameter of the cylinder are 12 cm. Let us write the length of radius of the sphere.

Solution.

Given

The curved surface area of a solid sphere is equal to the surface area of a solid right circular cylinder. The lengths of both height and diameter of the cylinder are 12 cm.

Let the radius of solid sphere = r cm.

Surface area of solid sphere = 47r² sq cm²

Again, height of the cylinder is 12 cm.

Radius of the cylinder = 6 cm.

Curved surface area of the cylinder = 2лrh = 2π x 6 x 12 sq cm. 

= 144π sq cm. 

According to the problem,

4πr² = 144π

r² = 36, 

or, r= 6

∴The radius of the sphere = 6 cm.

Question 3. The whole surface area of a solid hemisphere is equal to the curved surface area of the solid sphere. Let us write the ratio of lengths of radii of the hemisphere and the sphere.

Solution:

Given

The whole surface area of a solid hemisphere is equal to the curved surface area of the solid sphere.

Let the radius of the solid hemisphere = r1 unit

& The radius of the sphere = r2 unit

Total surface area of the hemisphere = \(3 \pi r_1{ }^2 \text { sq unit }\)

& Surface area of the sphere = \(4 \pi r_2^2 \text { sq unit }\)

According to the question,

\(3 \pi r_1^2=4 \pi r_2^2\)

or, \(\frac{\mathrm{r}_1^2}{\mathrm{r}_2^2}=\frac{4}{3} \text { or, } \frac{\mathrm{r}_1}{\mathrm{r}_2}=\frac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\)

Question 4. If the curved surface area of a solid sphere is S and the volume is V, let us write the value of S3/V2 [not putting the value of π]

Solution:

If the curved surface area of a solid sphere is S and the volume is V

Let the radius of the sphere = r units

Surface area of sphere = s = \(4 \pi r^2\)

Volume of sphere = v = \(\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3\)

\(\frac{S^3}{V^2}=\frac{\left(4 r^2\right)^3}{\left(\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3\right)^2}=\frac{64 \pi^3 r^6}{\frac{16}{9} \pi^2 r^6}=\frac{64 \times 9 \pi^3}{16 \pi^2}=36 \pi\)

Question 5. If the length of the radius of a sphere is increased by 50%, let us write how much per cent will be increased of its curved surface area.

Solution:

Given

If the length of the radius of a sphere is increased by 50%

Let the radius of the sphere = r unit

∴ Surface area = \(4 \pi r^2 \text { sq. unit }\)

if the radius of the sphere is increased by 50%,

New radius will be \(r+\frac{50}{100} r\)

= \(r+\frac{r}{2}\)

= \(\frac{3 r}{2}\) Unit.

∴ Surface area will be = \(4 \pi\left(\frac{3 \pi}{2}\right)^2\)

= \(9 \pi r^2\)

Area increased = \(9 \pi r^2-4 \pi r^2\) = 5r2

Increased percentage = \(\frac{5 \pi r^2}{4 \pi r^2} \times 100 \%\)

= 125%

125% will be increased of its curved surface area.

or, 2x/2y = K+1/K-1 = p(let)

∴x/y = p

∴x = py (Where P is Constant)

Now, x³+y³/x³-y³ = (py)³ + y³ / (py)³ – y³

=y³+(p³+1) / y³-(p³-1)=Constant.

3. ax + by α px + ay [where a, b, p, q are non-zero constants] 

Solution: x + y α x-y or, x + y = K(x – y)

or, x+y/x-y = K/1

or, x+y+x-y / x+y-x+y = K+1 / K-1

or, 2x/2y = K+1 / k-1 = R(let) (Where K & R are Constants)

∴ x = Ry

ax + by / Px+qy = aRy+by / PRy+ay

= y(aR+b) / y(PR+q)

Question 8. If 15 farmers can cultivate 18 bighas of land in 5 days, let us determine by using the theory of variation the number of days required by 10 farmers to cultivate 12 bighas of land.

Solution:

Given

If 15 farmers can cultivate 18 bighas of land in 5 days,

No. of farmers A, no. of days = B & area of land = C

No. of days is in inverse variation with no. of farmers when area of land remains constant

i.e., B α 1/A when C is constant

Again, No. of days is an indirect variation with an area of land, when No. of farmers remains constant

∴ B α C when A is Constant.

According to the theorem on joint variation,

Β α C/A when C & A both vary

∴ B = K C/A where K is a constant of variation.

Given A = 15, B = 5, & C = 18.

5 = K 18/15

or, K = 15 x 5 / 18 = 25/6

B = K C/A

=25/6 x 12/10

=5

∴ No. of days 5. Ans.

Question 9. The volume of a sphere varies directly with the cube of its radius. Three solid spheres having lengths of 1 1/2, 2 and 2 1/2 metre diameter are melted and a new solid sphere is formed. Let us find the length of the diameter of the new sphere. [let us consider that the volume of the sphere remains the same before and after melting]

Solution:

Given

The volume of a sphere varies directly with the cube of its radius. Three solid spheres having lengths of 1 1/2, 2 and 2 1/2 metre diameter are melted and a new solid sphere is formed.

Let the volume of the sphere of radius r be v.

Given v α r³or v = Kr³ where K is the constant of variation.

The radii of 3 spheres are 3 / 4, 1 & 5/4 m.

∴ The volume of 1st sphere = K X (3/4)³ cu.m.

The volume of the 2nd sphere Kx (1)³ cu.m.

The volume of the 3rd sphere = K x (5/4)³ cu.m.

∴ If the radius of the new sphere = R

∴ Its volume = KR³

According to the problem,

KR³= K(3/4)³ + K(1)³ + Kx(5/4)³

KR³ = [27/64+1+125/64]

∴ R³ = 216+64

R = 6/4

R= 3/2

∴ Diameter of the new sphere = 2R = 2x 3/2 =3m.

 

Question 10. To dig a well of x dcm deep one part of the total expenses varies directly with x and the other part varies directly with x2. If the expenses of digging wells of 100 dcm and 200 dcm depths are Rs. 5,000 and Rs. 12,000 respectively, let us write by calculating the expenses of digging a well of 250 dcm depth.

Solution:

Given

To dig a well of x dcm deep one part of the total expenses varies directly with x and the other part varies directly with x2. If the expenses of digging wells of 100 dcm and 200 dcm depths are Rs. 5,000 and Rs. 12,000 respectively

Let total expenses to dig a well = Rs. y.

Of which part A is one part & other part B.

∴ y = A + B

Now, \(A \propto x \text { or, } A=K_r x\)

& \(B \propto x^2 \text { or, } B=K_2 x^2\)

∴ \(y=K_1 x+K_2 x \cdots R_2\)          …(1)

When x = 100dcm, y = 5,000

& when x = 200dcm, y = 12,000

∴ 5,000 = K1100 + K210,000

or, K1 + 100K2 = 50   …(2)

& 12,000 = K.200 + K240,000

or, K1 + 200K2 = 60         …(3)

(3) – (2), 100K2 = 10

∴ \(\mathrm{K}_2=\frac{1}{10}\)

From (2) K1 + 10 = 50

∴ \(\mathrm{K}_1=40\)

From (1) \(y=40 x+\frac{x^2}{10}\)       …(4)

Now, when x = 250 dcm

\(y=40 \times 250+\frac{(250)^2}{10}=10,000+6250=16250\)

Total expenses = Rs. 16,250.

 

Question 11. The volume of a cylinder is in joint variation with the square of the length of the radius of the base and its height. The ratio of radii of bases of two cylinders is 2: 3 and the ratio of their heights is 54, let us find the ratio of their volumes.

Solution:

Given

The volume of a cylinder is in joint variation with the square of the length of the radius of the base and its height. The ratio of radii of bases of two cylinders is 2: 3 and the ratio of their heights is 54

Let volume of cylinder = V,

Radius = R

& Height = H

∴ \(V \propto R^2 \mathrm{H}\)

∴ \(\mathrm{V}=\mathrm{KR}^2 \mathrm{H} (Where K is a constant of variation)\)

1st case let radius = 2r. & Height = 5h

2nd case radius = 3rd & Height = 4h

1st case volume = \(V_1=K,(2 r)^2 .5 \mathrm{~h}=K, 4 r^2, 5 \mathrm{~h}\)

2nd case volume = \(V_2=K,(3 r)^2, 4 h=K \cdot 9 r^2, 4 b\)

∴ \(\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{K \cdot 4 r^2 \cdot 5 h}{K .9 r^2 \cdot 4 h}=\frac{4 \times 5}{9 \times 4}=\frac{5}{9}\)

 Ratio of their volumes = 5 : 9.

 

Question 12. An agricultural Co-operative Society of the village of Pachla has purchased a tractor. Previously 2400 bighas of land were cultivated by 25 ploughs in 36 days. Now half of the land can be cultivated only by that tractor in 30 days. Let us calculate by using the theory of variation, the number of ploughs work equally with one tractor. 

Solution:

Given

An agricultural Co-operative Society of the village of Pachla has purchased a tractor. Previously 2400 bighas of land were cultivated by 25 ploughs in 36 days. Now half of the land can be cultivated only by that tractor in 30 days.

Let no. of ploughs = N, area of Land A, no. of days = D.

∴ N α A & Nα1/D

According to the theorem of joint variation, Nα1/D

or, N = K 1/D (Where K is a constant of variation)

Now, A = 2400, N = 25; D = 36

∴ 25 =  K 2400/36

∴ K = 25x 36 / 2400 = 3/8

Now, N = K A/D

= 3/8 x 1200/30

As, A = 2400/2 = 1200 & D = 300

N = 15

∴ No. of ploughs = 15

∴ 15 plough work equally with one tractor.

Question 13. Volume of a sphere varies directly with the cube of length of its radius and surface area of sphere varies directly with the square of the length of radius. Let us prove that the square of the volume of a sphere varies directly with cube of its surface area. 

Solution:

Given

Volume of a sphere varies directly with the cube of length of its radius and surface area of sphere varies directly with the square of the length of radius.

Let volume of sphere V, radius = R & surface area of sphere = S

∴V α  R³ & S = R

or, V = mR³ or, S = nR² (Where m & n are constants of variation)

or, R³ = V/m or, R² = S/n

R = (V/m)⅓

∴R² = V/m)⅔

S/n = (V/m)

or, S = n.(V/m)

or, S³ = n³/m³.V²

∴V² = m²/n³ S³

∴V² α S³(as m²/n³ = Constant)

If they divided 2/3 of this profit equally among themselves and of the remaining in the ratio of their capitals, let us find the share of each one of them.

Solution:

Three retired persons invested Rs. 19,500, Rs. 27,300 and Rs. 15,600 respectively to set up a leather factory and after a year they had a profit of Rs. 43,200. If they divided 2/3 of this profit equally among themselves and of the remaining in the ratio of their capitals

Total profit was Rs. 43200, & they will divide 2/3 of this profit equally among themselves

i.e., each will get = Rs.(43200 x 2/3)

= Rs. 28,800.

Remaining profit = Rs. (43200 – 28800)

= Rs. 14,400 

will divide among themselves in the ratio of their capitals.

Ratio of their capitals 19500: 27300 :15600 = 195 :273: 156 = 5:7:4 

Out of the Remaining profit Rs. 14400

1st man will get = 5/5+7+4 x Rs. 14400

Rs. 5/16 x 14400 = Rs. 4500

2nd man will get = 7 / 5+7+4 x Rs. 14400

Rs. 7/16 x 14400 = Rs. 6300.

3rd man will get = 4 / 5+7+4 × Rs. 14400

= Rs.4/16 x 14400 

= Rs. 3600.

Question 5. Abhra, Tanbir, Amrita and Tathagata started a partnership business together with capital of Rs. 15,000, Rs. 21,000, Rs. 30,000 and Rs. 45,000 respectively with the condition that :

1 Abhra and Tanbir each partner will manage the business for a period of 6 months and each will get a share of 0.25 of the profit by dividing equally.

2. The remaining profit is to be divided among the four of them in the ratio of their capital. If the annual profit is Rs. 27232, let us write the share of each.

Solution: 

1. Rs. (0.25 part of 27232) = Rs. 6808 will be equally divided among Abhra and Tanbir.

2. Rs. (27323 – 6808)= Rs. 20424 will be divided among them in the ratio of their capitals.

The ratio of capitals of Abhra, Tanbir, Amrita and Tathagata

= 15,000 :21,000 :30,000 :45,000 = 5 : 7: 10: 15

∴ The remaining part of the profit of Rs. 20424 will be divided among them in the ratio of their capital

Abhra will get = Rs. 5 / 5+7+10+15 x 20424 = Rs. 2760.

Similarly, in Rs. 20424, let us write by calculating how much money Tanbir, Amrita and Tathagata will get.

.. Abhra will get total = Rs. (6808÷ 2 +5/37 x 20424) = Rs. (3404 + 2760) = Rs. 6164.

Tanbir will get total = Rs. (6808 ÷ 2 + 7/37 x 20424) = Rs. (3404 +3864) = Rs. 7268.

Amrita will get = Rs. 10/37 x 20424 Rs. 5520

& Tathagata will get = Rs. 15 / 37 x 20424 Rs. 8280.

Question 6. Jaya aunty has started a small business of selling handcrafts with a capital of Rs. 10,000. After 6 months Sulekhadidi joined the business of Jaya aunty with a capital of Rs. 14,000. They make a profit of Rs. 5100. Let us write by calculating how much profit they will get.

Solution:

Jaya aunty has started a small business of selling handcrafts with a capital of Rs. 10,000. After 6 months Sulekhadidi joined the business of Jaya aunty with a capital of Rs. 14,000. They make a profit of Rs. 5100.

At first the time for which the capital invested in this business of Jaya aunty and Sulekhadidi will be settled for an equal period.

Let Jaya aunty sells an object of Rs. 10,000 in 1 month and get a profit of Rs. x.

She sells an object for Rs. 10,000 in 2 months and gets a profit of Rs. 2x.

She sells objects for Rs. 10,000 in 12 months and gets a profit of Rs. 12x.

Jaya’s aunty has to make a profit equal to Rs. 12x in a month; she should have to invest Rs. 12 x 10,000 = Rs. 1,20,000.

Again, similarly if in one month, Sulekhadidi has to make a profit equal to that she earns the profit investing Rs. 14,000, for 6 months, she should have invested Rs. (6 x 14,000) = Rs. 84,000.

∴ The ratio of capitals of Jaya aunty and Sulekhadidi = Rs. 1,20,000:84,000 = 10: 7 The profit is divided in the ratio of capitals,

i.e., profit is divided in the ratio of 10: 7

∴ In profit of Rs. 5100 Jaya aunty will get = Rs. (10 / 10+7 x 5100) = Rs. 3,000.

In profit of Rs. 5100 Sulekhadidi will get = Rs.(7/10+7 x 5100) = Rs. 2,100.

Question 7. Manisha has started a business with a capital of Rs. 3750. After 6 months Rajat joined the business with a capital of Rs. 15,000. If at the end of the year, there was a loss of Rs. 6900, let us write by calculating the money each must pay to make up the loss. 

Solution:

Manisha has started a business with a capital of Rs. 3750. After 6 months Rajat joined the business with a capital of Rs. 15,000. If at the end of the year, there was a loss of Rs. 6900

Capital of Manisha = Rs. 3750 x 12 = Rs. 45,000 

Capital of Rajat Rs. 15,000 x 6 = Rs. 90,000

The ratio of their capitals = Rs. 45,000: Rs. 90,000 1:2

Total loss = Rs. 6,900

∴Manisha will give = Rs. 1/3 × 6900 = Rs. 2,300

& Rajat will give = Rs. x 6900 Rs. 4,600.

Question 8. Aminabibi, Ramenbabu and Ishitaunty of our village started a partnership business on the first of January of last year with capital of Rs. 50,000, Rs. 60,000 and Rs. 70,000 respectively. On the first of April, Ramenbabu invested Rs. 10,000 more money but on 1st of June Ishita aunty withdrew Rs. 10,000. If the total profit up to 13 December was Rs. 39240, let us write by calculating the profit share of each one of them on the basis of the ratio of their capitals.

Solution: Aminabibi has invested Rs. 50,000 for 12 months, if in a month she has to make a profit equal to that she gained in 12 months on that amount, she should invest Rs. (50,000 x 12), 

i.e., Rs. 60,000.

Similarly, Ramenbabu has invested Rs. 60,000 for 3 months and Rs. (60,000 + 10,000), 

i.e., 70,000 for 9 months. 

Thus his investment on a monthly sale should be Rs. {(60,000 x 3) + (70,000 × 9)} = Rs. 8,10,000.

Again, Ishita aunty has invested Rs. 70,000 for 5 months and Rs. (70,000 – 10,000) =Rs. 60,000 for 7 months.

Thus her investment on a monthly scale should be = Rs. ((70,000 × 5) + (60,000 × 7)} = Rs. 7,70,000

The ratio of capitals of Aminabibi, Ramenbabu and Ishita aunty = 6,00,000 :8,10,000 :7,70,000 = 60: 81 : 77

∴ The proportional part of the share of Aminabibi, Ramenbabu and Ishita aunty in the ratio of their capitals are

60/218, 81/218 and 77/218 respectively.

Profit share is divided by the ratio of their capital.

∴ In the profit of Rs. 39240, Aminabibi will get = Rs. (60 / 218 x 39240) = Rs. 10,800

In the profit of Rs. 39240, Ramenbabu will get = Rs. (81 / 218 x 39240) = Rs. 14,580

In the profit of Rs. 39240, Ishita aunty will get = Rs. (77/218 x 39240) = Rs. 13,860

Question 9. Nivedita and Uma have started a business with capitals of Rs. 3,000 and Rs. 5,000 respectively. After 6 months Nivedita invested Rs. 4,000 more but after 6 months Uma withdrew Rs. 1,000. If the profit at the end of the year is Rs. 6,175, let us write by calculating the profit share of each of them.

Solution:

Nivedita and Uma have started a business with capitals of Rs. 3,000 and Rs. 5,000 respectively. After 6 months Nivedita invested Rs. 4,000 more but after 6 months Uma withdrew Rs. 1,000. If the profit at the end of the year is Rs. 6,175

Total Capital of Nivedita = Rs. (3000 12) + Rs. (4000 x 6)

= Rs. (36,000+ 24,000) Rs. 60,000.

Total Capital of Uma = Rs. (5,000 6) + Rs. (5,000 – 1,000) x 6

= Rs. (30,000+24,000) = Rs. 54,000

The ratio of the capital of Nivedita & Uma = Rs. 60,000: Rs. 54,000 = 60:54 = 10: 9

Total profit Rs. 6175.

Out of this profit, Nivedita will get = 10/19 x Rs. 6175 = Rs. 3250

& Uma will get = 9/19 x Rs. 6175 = Rs. 2925.

Question 10. I and my friend Mala together have started a business with a capital of Rs. 15000 and Rs. 25000 respectively. If we make a profit of Rs.16,800 in a year, let us see the profit share we shall each get.

Solution: Ratio of my & Mala’s capital = Rs. 15,000: Rs. 25,000 = 15: 25 = 3:5

Total profit in a year = Rs. 16,800.

∴ My share of profit = 3 / 3+5 x Rs. 16,800 

=3/8 x Rs. 16,800 

= Rs. 6,300

& Mala’s share of profit = 5 / 3+5 x Rs. 16,800 

= 5/8 x Rs. 16,800 

= Rs. 10,500. 

Question 11. Priyam, Supriya and Bullu have opened a small shop of a grocery shop with capital of Rs. 15000, Rs. 10000 and Rs. 25000 respectively. But after a year there was a loss of Rs. 3000. Let us write by calculating what each must pay to make up the loss.

Solution:

Priyam, Supriya and Bullu have opened a small shop of a grocery shop with capital of Rs. 15000, Rs. 10000 and Rs. 25000 respectively. But after a year there was a loss of Rs. 3000.

Ratio of Priyam, Supriya &

Bulu’s capital = Rs. 15,000 :Rs. 10,000: Rs. 25,000 = 15: 10: 25 = 3:2:5

Total Loss = Rs. 3,000

To make up for the loss 

Priyam will pay 2 / 3+2+5 x Rs. 3,000 

= 3/10 Rs. 3,000 

= Rs. 900.

Supriya will pay = 2 / 3+2+5 x Rs. 3,000 = Rs.

= Rs. 600.

Bulu will pay = 5 / 3+2+5 x Rs. 3,000 = 

Rs. 5/10 x Rs. 3,000 

= Rs. 1,500.

Question 12. Shobha and Masud together bought a car for Rs. 250000 and sold it for 262,500. If Sobha paid 1 ½ times more than Masud, let us write by calculating their shares of profit.

Solution:

Shobha and Masud together bought a car for Rs. 250000 and sold it for 262,500. If Sobha paid 1 ½ times more than Masud

The sale price of a car is Rs. 2,62,500

Cost price of the car = Rs. 2,50,000

∴ Profit = Rs. (262500 – 250000) = Rs. 12,500.

Now, Ratio of Shobha’s & Masud’s capitals = 3/2 :1 = 3:2

∴ Shobha’s share of profit= 3 / 3+2 × Rs. 12,500

= 3/5 x Rs. 12,500 

= Rs. 7,500

& Masud’s share of profit = 2/3 +2 x Rs. 12,500 

= 2/5 x Rs. 12,500 

= Rs. 5,000.

Question 13. Three friends started a partnership business by investing Rs. 5000, Rs. 6000 and Rs. 7000 respectively. After running the business for one year, they found that there is a loss of Rs. 1800. They decided to pay to make up that loss to undisturbed their capital. Let us write by calculating the amount they have to pay.

Solution:

Three friends started a partnership business by investing Rs. 5000, Rs. 6000 and Rs. 7000 respectively. After running the business for one year, they found that there is a loss of Rs. 1800. They decided to pay to make up that loss to undisturbed their capital.

Ratio of capitals of 3 friends = Rs. 5,000 Rs. 6,000 Rs. 7,000 5: 6:7.

Total loss Rs. 1,800.

1st friend will pay = 5 / 5+6+7 x Rs. 1,800 

= 5/18 x Rs. 1,800 

= Rs. 500.

2nd friend will pay = 6 / 5+6+7 x Rs. 1,800

= 6/18 x Rs. 1,800 

= Rs. 600.

3rd friend will pay = 7 / 5+6+7 x Rs. 1,800 

= 7/8 x Rs. 1,800 

= Rs. 700.

Question 14. Dipu, Rabeya and Megha started a small business by investing capital of Rs. 6500, Rs. 5200, and Rs. 9100 respectively and just after one year they make a profit of 2/3 of Rs. 14,400. If they divided of the profit equally among themselves and the remaining in the ratio of their capitals, let us find the profit share of each.

Solution:

Dipu, Rabeya and Megha started a small business by investing capital of Rs. 6500, Rs. 5200, and Rs. 9100 respectively and just after one year they make a profit of 2/3 of Rs. 14,400. If they divided of the profit equally among themselves and the remaining in the ratio of their capitals,

Ratio of Dipu’s, Rabeya’s & Megha’s capitals

= Rs. 6500: Rs. 5200: Rs. 9100 = 65 : 52: 91=5:4:7

Total profit = Rs. 14400

2/3 of profit = 2/3 x Rs. 14400 = Rs. 9600.

∴ If Rs. 9600 is divided equally among themselves, each will get

= Rs. 9600 ÷ 3 

= Rs. 3200.

The remaining amount of profit = Rs. (14400 – 9600)

 = Rs. 4,800

∴ Rs. 4800 will be divided among themselves in their ratio of capitals.

.. Dipu will get = 5 / 5+4+7 x Rs. 4800 

= 5/16 x Rs. 4800 

= Rs. 1500.

Rabeya will get  = 4 / 5+4+7 x Rs. 4800 

= 4/16 x Rs. 4800 

= Rs. 1200.

& Megha will get = 7 / 5+4+7 x Rs. 4800 

= 7/16 x Rs. 4800 

= Rs. 2100.

∴ Out of a total profit of Rs. 14400

Dipu’s share of profit = Rs. (3200 + 1500) = Rs. 4700. 

Rabeya’s share of profit = Rs. (3200+ 1200)= Rs. 4400. 

Megha’s share of profit = Rs. (3200+ 2100)= Rs. 5300.

Question 15. Three friends have started a business by investing Rs. 8000, Rs. 10000 and Rs. 12000 respectively. They also took an amount as a bank loan. At the end of the year, they made a profit of Rs. 13400. After paying the annual bank instalment of Rs. 5000 they divided the remaining money of the profit among themselves in the ratio of their capital. Let us write by calculating the profit share of each.

Solution:

Three friends have started a business by investing Rs. 8000, Rs. 10000 and Rs. 12000 respectively. They also took an amount as a bank loan. At the end of the year, they made a profit of Rs. 13400. After paying the annual bank instalment of Rs. 5000 they divided the remaining money of the profit among themselves in the ratio of their capital.

Ratio of the capital of three friends = Rs. 8000: Rs. 10000:Rs. 12000 = 8 :10 :12 = 4:56.

Total profit = Rs. 13400

Bank’s annual instalment = Rs. 5000

Remaining profit = Rs. (13400-5000) = Rs. 8400

∴Rs. 8400 will divide among themselves in the ratio of 4: 5: 6.

∴ 1st friend’s share of profit = 4 / 4+5+6 x Rs. 8400 

= 4/15 x Rs. 8400 

= Rs. 2240.

2nd friend’s share of profit = 5 / 4+5+6 x Rs. 8400 

= 5/15 x Rs. 8400 

= Rs. 2800.

3rd friend’s share of profit = 6 / 4+5+6 x Rs. 8400 

= 6/15 x Rs. 8400 

= Rs. 3360.

Question 16. Three friends took loans of Rs. 6000, Rs. 8000 and Rs. 5000 respectively from a cooperative bank on the condition that they would not have to pay interest if they would repay their loan within two years. They invested the money to purchase 4 cycle rickshaws. After two years they made a profit of Rs. 30400 excluding all expenses. They divide the profit among themselves in the ratio of their capital and repaid back their individual loan amount to the bank. Let us write by calculating the amount of their individual share and the ratio of their shares.

Solution: Ratio of the capital of 3 friends = Rs. 6000: Rs. 8000: Rs. 5000 

= 60: 80: 50

= 6: 8:5

Total profit Rs. 30400.

.: 1st friend’s share of profit = 6 / 6+8+5 x Rs. 30400 

= 6/19 x Rs. 30400 

= Rs. 9600.

2nd friend’s share of profit = 8/6+8+5 × Rs. 30400 =

8 / 19 x Rs. 30400 = Rs. 12800.

3rd friend’s share of profit = 5 / 6+8+5 x Rs. 30400

5/19 x Rs. 30400 = Rs. 8000.

Now they repaid back their individual loans to the bank. 

∴ 1st friend’s share of profit Rs (96006000) = Rs. 3600. 

2nd friend’s share of profit = Rs. (12C-8000) = Rs. 4800. 

3rd friend’s share of profit = Rs. (8000-500; Rs. 3000. 

The ratio of their remaining profit = Rs. 3600:Rs. 4800: Rs. 3000

= 36:48 :30

= 6: 8:5.

Question 17. Three friends invested Rs. 12000, Rs. 15000 and Rs. 110000 respectively to purchase a bus. The first person is a driver and the other two are conductors. They decided to divide 2/5th of the profit among themselves in the ratio of 3:2:2 according to their work and the remaining in the ratio of their capital. If they earn Rs. 29260 in one month, let us find the share of each of them.

Solution: Ratio of capitals of 3 friends = Rs. 12000: Rs. 15000: Rs. 11000 = 12:15:11 

Total profit = Rs. 29260

They decided on 2/5  of the profit, 

i.e., 2/5 x Rs. 29260 

= Rs. 11704 will be divided among

themselves in the ratio of 3:2:2.

∴ 1st friend (Driver) will get = 3/7 x Rs. 11704 

= Rs. 5016.

2nd friend (Conductor) will get =2/7 x Rs. 11704 

= Rs. 3344

& 3rd friend (Conductor) will get = 2/7x Rs. 11704 

= Rs. 3344.

Rest amount = Rs. (29260 – 11704) 

= Rs. 1.1556 will be divided among themselves in the ratio of their capitals (i.e., 12 :15:11)

.: Driver will get = 12/38 x Rs. 11556 

= Rs. 5544. (as 12+15+11=38)

1st Conductor will get = 15/38 x Rs. 11556 

= Rs. 7930

2nd Conductor will get = 11/38 x Rs. 11556 = Rs. 5082

∴ The driver will get in total = Rs. (5016+ 5544) Rs. 10560. 

1st Conductor will get in total = Rs. (3344+ 7930) = Rs. 10274. 

2nd Conductor will get in total = Rs. (3344 + 5082) = Rs. 8426.

Question 18. Pradip babu and Amina bibi started a business by investing Rs. 24000 and Rs. 30000 respectively at the begining of a year. After 5 months Pradip babu invested capital of Rs. 4000 more. If the yearly profit was Rs. 27716, let us write by calculating the share of each of them.

Solution:

Pradipbabu and Aminabibi started a business by investing Rs. 24000 and Rs. 30000 respectively at the begining of a year. After 5 months Pradipbabu invested capital of Rs. 4000 more. If the yearly profit was Rs. 27716

Total capital of Pradipbabu throughout the year

= Rs. (24000 x 12 + 4000 x 7) = Rs. (288000+28000) = Rs. 316000

Total capital of Aminabibi = Rs. 30000 x 12 = Rs. 360000.

∴ The ratio of their capitals

Total profit = Rs. 27716.

Rs. 316000: Rs. 360000 316: 360 

= 79: 90

∴ Share of profit of Pradipbabu = 79 / 79+90 x Rs. 27716 =

= 79 / 169 x Rs. 27716

= Rs. 12956.

Share of profit of Aminabibi = 90 / 79+90 x Rs. 27716 

= 90 / 169 x Rs. 27716 

= Rs. 14760.

Question 19. Niyamat chacha and Karabi didi have started a partnership business together by investing Rs. 30000 and Rs. 50000 respectively. After 6 months Niyamat chacha has invested Rs. 40000 more but Karabi didi has withdrawn Rs. 10000 for personal need. If the profit at the end of the year is Rs. 19000, let us write by calculating the profit share of each of them.

Solution:

Niyamat chacha and Karabi didi have started a partnership business together by investing Rs. 30000 and Rs. 50000 respectively. After 6 months Niyamat chacha has invested Rs. 40000 more but Karabi didi has withdrawn Rs. 10000 for personal need. If the profit at the end of the year is Rs. 19000

Total capital Niyamat Chacha throughout the year

= Rs. (30000 × 12+ 40000 x 6) = Rs. (360000+ 240000) = Rs. 600000

& Total capital of Karabi didi = Rs. (50000 x 6 + 40000 x 6) = Rs. (300000 + 240000) = Rs. 540000.

∴ Ratio of their capitals = Rs. 600000 :Rs. 540000 = 60:54 

= 10: 9 

Total profit Rs. 19000.

Share of profit of Niyamat Chacha = 10 / 10+9 x Rs. 19000 

= 10/19 x Rs. 19000 

Rs. 10000. 

Share of profit of Karabi didi = 9 / 10+9 x Rs. 19000=

= 9 / 19 x Rs. 19000 

= Rs. 9000.

Question 20. Srikant and Soiffuddin invested Rs. 240000 and Rs. 300000 respectively at the beginning of the year to purchase a minibus to run on a route. After 4 months, their friend Peter joined them with a capital of Rs. 81000. Srikant and Soiffuddin have withdrawn that money in the ratio of their capitals. Let us write by calculating the share of each if they make a profit of Rs. 39150 at the end of the year.

Solution:

Srikant and Soiffuddin invested Rs. 240000 and Rs. 300000 respectively at the beginning of the year to purchase a minibus to run on a route. After 4 months, their friend Peter joined them with a capital of Rs. 81000. Srikant and Soiffuddin have withdrawn that money in the ratio of their capitals.

Ratio of capitals of Srikant & Soiffuddin = Rs. 240000:Rs. 300000

= 24:30 

= 4:5

After 4 months Peter joined them with a capital of Rs. 81000

& as this Rs. 81000 was withdrawn by Srikant & Soiffuddin in the ratio of their capitals.

∴Sritkant withdrawn = 4 / 4+5 x Rs. 81000 

= Rs. 36000

& Saiffuddin withdrawn: = 5 / 4+5 x Rs. 81000 Rs. 45000.

∴Total Capital of Srikant for 1 year = Rs. [240000 x 4+ (240000-36000)]

= Rs. (960000+204000 8) 

= Rs. (960000+ 1632000) 

= Rs. 2592000.

Total Capital of Soiffuddin for 1 year = Rs. [300000 x 4+ (300000-45000) x 8]

= Rs. (1200000 25000 x 8)

= Rs. (1200000+ 2040000)

= Rs. 3240000

Total capital of Peter = Rs. 81000 × 8 = Rs. 648000

∴ The ratio of capital of Srikant, Soiffuddin & Peter

=2592000 3240000

= 648000

= 2592:3240 :648 

= 72: 90: 18=4:5:1

Total profit = Rs. 39150

∴ Srikant’s share of profit = 4 / 4+5+1 x Rs. 39150=

= 4/10 x Rs. 39150 

= Rs. 15660.

Soiffuddin’s share of profit = 5 / 4+5+1 x Rs. 39150 

= 5/10 x Rs. 39150 

= Rs. 19575.

Peter’s share of profit = 1/4+5+1 x Rs. 39150 

= 1/10 X Rs. 39150 

= Rs. 3915. 

Question 21. Arun and Ajoy started a business jointly by investing Rs. 24000 and Rs. 30000 respectively at the beginning of the year. But after a few months, Arun invested Rs. 12000 more. After a year, the profit was Rs. 14030 and Arun received a profit share of Rs. 7130. Let us find out how many months Arun invest money in that business.

Solution:

Arun and Ajoy started a business jointly by investing Rs. 24000 and Rs. 30000 respectively at the beginning of the year. But after a few months, Arun invested Rs. 12000 more. After a year, the profit was Rs. 14030 and Arun received a profit share of Rs. 7130.

Let Arun invest Rs. 12,000 more after x months.

Arun’s Capital throughout the year

= Rs. [24000 x 12+12000 x (12-x)]

= Rs. (288000+ 144000 12000x) 

= Rs. (432000 12000x).

ajoy’s Capital throughout the year

= Rs. 30000 x 12 = Rs. 360000

The ratio of Arun’s Capital & ajoy’s Capital

=(432000 12000x): 360000

= 1000(432 – 12x): 360000

= (432-12x): 360 

= 12(36-x): 360 

= (36x): 30

Total profit Rs. 14030.

Arun’s share of profit = 36-x / (36-x)+30 x Rs. 14030.

= 36-x/66-x x Rs. 1.4030.

∴ According to the given problem,

14030 X 36-x / 66-x = 7130

or, 36-x / 66-x

= 7130/14030

= 713/1403

or, 713(66-x) = 1403(36-x)

or, 47058-713x = 50508-1403x

or, 1403x-713x= 50508-47058 or, 

690x = 3450

..x = 3450 / 690

= 5

∴ After 5 months Arun invested Rs. 12,000 more.

Question 22. Three clay modellers from Kumartuli collectively took a loan of Rs. 100000 from a cooperative bank to set up a modelling workshop. They made a contract that after paying back the annual bank instalment of Rs. 28100, they would divide half of the profit among themselves in terms of the number of working days and the other half will be equally divided among them. Last year they worked 300 days, 275 days and 350 days respectively and made a profit of Rs. 139100. Let us write by calculating the share of each in this profit.

Solution: Ratio of working days of 3 clay modellers

= 300 days: 275 days: 350 days = 12: 11: 14

Total profit Rs. 139100

They pay annual bank instalment = Rs. 28100

Remaining amount = Rs. (139100-28100) = Rs. 111000

1/2 of Rs. 111000 = Rs. 55500.

From Rs. 55500, each will get = Rs. (55500 ÷ 3) 

= Rs. 18500

The rest Rs. 55500 will be divided among themselves in the ratio of 12: 11: 10.

∴ 1st man will get in total = Rs. (18500 + 12/37 x 555000)             [12+11+ 14=37]

= Rs. (18500+ 18000) 

= Rs. 36500

2nd man will get in total = Rs. (18500 + 11/37× 555000)

= Rs. (18500+ 16500) = Rs. 35000

3rd man will get in total = Rs. (18500 + 14/37 × 555000)

= Rs. (18500 +21000) 

= Rs. 39500.


Question 23. Two friends invested Rs. 40000 and Rs. 50000 respectively to start a business. They made a contract that they would divide 50% of the profit equally among themselves and the remaining profit in the ratio of their capital. Let us write the share of profit of the first friend if it is Rs. 800 less than that of the 2nd friend.

Solution:

Two friends invested Rs. 40000 and Rs. 50000 respectively to start a business. They made a contract that they would divide 50% of the profit equally among themselves and the remaining profit in the ratio of their capital.

Ratio of capitals of two friends = Rs. 40000 Rs. 50000 4:5

Let the total profit = Rs. x.

50% of Rs. x = Rs. x/2  will be divided among the two equally.

∴ Each will get = Rs. x/2 x ½

=Rs. x/4

Remaining Rs.( x-x/2) = Rs.

Rs. x/2 will be divided among them in the ratio of their capitals.

∴ 1st friend will get = 4/9 x Rs. x/2 

= Rs. 2x/9

& 2nd friend will get 5/9 x Rs. x/2

= Rs. 5x/18

∴ In total

1st friend will get = Rs.(x/4 + 2x/9)

= Rs.9x+8x/36

= Rs. 17x/36

2nd friend will get = Rs. (x/4 +5x/18)

= Rs. 9x+10x / 36

= Rs.19x/36

∴ According to the problem,

19x/36 – 17x/36 = 800

or,2x/36 = 800

∴x = 800 x 36 / 2

∴ 1st friend will get = Rs.= Rs. 17 x 14400 / 36

= 6800

Question 24. Puja, Uttam and Meher started a partnership business with capitals of Rs. 5000, Rs. 7000 and Rs. 10000 respectively with the condition that

1. The monthly expense for running the business is Rs. 125; 

2. Puja and Uttam each will get Rs. 200 for keeping the accounts. If the profit is Rs. 6960 at the end of the year, let us write by calculating the profit share each would get.

Solution: Ratio of Capitals of Puja: Uttam: Mehar

= Rs. 5000:Rs. 7000:Rs. 10000 = 5:7: 10

Total yearly expenses = Rs. 125 x 12 = Rs. 1500

For keeping the accounts Puja & Uttam will get yearly = Rs. (2 x 200) x 12 = Rs. 4800 

Total profit= Rs. 6960.

Remaining profit after deducting expenses

= Rs. [6960 (1500+ 4800)] 

= Rs. (69606300) 

= Rs. 660

∴ Puka’s share of profit = 5/22 x Rs. 660        [5 +7 +10=22]

= Rs. 150.          

Uttam’s share of profit=7/22 x Rs. 660 

=Rs. 210.

Mehar’s share of profit = 10/22 x Rs. 660 Rs. 300.

∴ At the end of the year

Puja will get = Rs. (200 x 12 + 150) 

= Rs. 2400 + 150 

= Rs. 2550.

& Uttam will get = Rs. (200 x 12 + 210) 

= Rs. 2400 + 210 

= Rs. 2610.

Question 3. The total profit is Rs. 1500 in a partnership business of two persons. If the capital of Rajib is Rs. 6000 and the profit is Rs. 900, let us calculate how much capital Abtab is.

Solution.

The total profit is Rs. 1500 in a partnership business of two persons. If the capital of Rajib is Rs. 6000 and the profit is Rs. 900

Total profit = Rs. 1500, 

Rajib’s profit = Rs. 900

∴ Aftab’s profit = Rs.

(1500-900) = Rs. 600

Rajib’s Capital / Abtab’s Capital = Rajib’s Profit / Abtab’s Profit

= Rs. 6000 / Abtab’s Capital

= Rs. 900 / Rs. 600 

= 3/2

∴ Aftab’s Capital = 3/2

Question 4. The ratio of capitals of three persons is 3: 8:5, and the profit of 1st person is Rs. 60 less than that of the 3rd person, let us calculate the total profit in this business. 

Solution.

The ratio of capitals of three persons is 3: 8:5, and the profit of 1st person is Rs. 60 less than that of the 3rd person

The ratio of capitals of 3 people = 3:8:5

∴ Ratio of profit of 3 people = 3: 8:5

Let profit of 1st person = Rs. 3x

Profit of 2nd person = Rs. 8x

Profit of 3rd person = Rs. 5x

Total profit = Rs. (3x + 8x + 5x) = Rs. 16x

Now, 5x-3x= 60

or, 2x 60  

∴ x = 30

Total profit = 16x

= Rs. 16 x 30 

= Rs. 480.

Question 10. If two spheres with radii of 1 cm and 6 cm lengths are melted and a hollow sphere with a thickness of 1 cm is made, let us write by calculating the outer curved surface area of the hollow sphere.

Solution:

If two spheres with radii of 1 cm and 6 cm lengths are melted and a hollow sphere with a thickness of 1 cm is made,

Let the length of the outer radius of the sphere is r cm.

∴ The length of the inner radius of that sphere is = (r-1) cm.

By condition, 4/3 πr³ – 4/3 π(r-1)³

= 4/3π(1)³+4/3π(6)³

or, 4/3 π {r³ (r− 1)³} = 3π (1+216)

or, 3+3r²-3r+ 1 = 217

or, 32-3r-216=0

or, r²-r-72 = 0.

or, r²-9r+8r-72=0

or, r(r-9)+8(r-9)=0

or, (r-9) (r+8)= 0

Either, r-9=0 ..r=9

or, r+8=0 r=-8

∴Since r = not -8, as r is the length of radius, i.e., it can not be negative.

∴r=9

∴The length of the outer radius of the new hollow sphere is 9 cm.

∴ Outer surface area = 4 x 22/7 x 9 x9 sq cm = 1018 2/7 sq cm.
