    One-fourth of a number is equal to \[\frac{5}{8}\text{th}\] of another number. If 36 is added to the first number, it becomes four times the second number. Find the second number.

    A)  25

    C)  24       

    D)  30

    Correct Answer: C

    Let the numbers be x and y. \[\therefore \]      \[\frac{1}{4}x=\frac{5}{8}y\]and\[x+36=4y\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[x=\frac{5}{2}y\] and   \[x=4y-36\]\[\therefore \]\[y=24\]
