💡Correct Answer: Option B (300)

Let the maximum marks be

M

. Passing marks required =

80 + 40 = 120

. Since passing percentage is

40\%

, we have:

0.40 \times M = 120 \implies M = \frac{120}{0.40} = 300

. Therefore, maximum marks are

300

.

Q97

General Intelligence & ReasoningRatio & Proportion

If $A:B = 2:3$ and $B:C = 4:5$ , what is the ratio $A:B:C$ ?

B

common. Multiply

A:B

by

4

(giving

8:12

) and multiply

B:C

by

Sum of original

5

numbers =

5 \times 20 = 100

.
Sum of

6

numbers (including new one) =

6 \times 22 = 132

.
The added number is

132 - 100 = 32

.

Q99

General Intelligence & ReasoningProfit & Loss

A shopkeeper sells an article for $\text{Rs. } 540$ at a loss of $10\%$ . At what price should he sell the article to gain $10\%$ ?

💡Correct Answer: Option D (Rs. 660)

Selling Price (

SP_1

) =

\text{Rs. } 540

at

10\%

loss.
This means

SP_1 = 90\%

of Cost Price (

CP

).

0.90 \times CP = 540 \implies CP = \frac{540}{0.90} = 600

.
To gain

10\%

, the new selling price (

SP_2

) must be:

SP_2 = 1.10 \times CP = 1.10 \times 600 = 660

.

Q100

General Intelligence & ReasoningTime & Work

$A$ can do a piece of work in $12$ days, and $B$ can do the same work in $18$ days. Working together, in how many days can they complete the work?

💡Correct Answer: Option B (7.2 days)

Let total work be

\text{LCM}(12, 18) = 36

units.
Efficiency of

A = \frac{36}{12} = 3

units/day.
Efficiency of

B = \frac{36}{18} = 2

units/day.
Combined efficiency of

A

and

B = 3 + 2 = 5

units/day.
Time taken working together =

\frac{36}{5} = 7.2

days.

Q101

General Intelligence & ReasoningSimple Interest

What sum of money will amount to $\text{Rs. } 520$ in $5$ years and to $\text{Rs. } 568$ in $7$ years at the same rate of simple interest?

💡Correct Answer: Option B (Rs. 400)

Amount in

7

years =

P + 7I = 568

.
Amount in

5

years =

P + 5I = 520

.
Subtracting the two equations:

2I = 48 \implies I = 24

per year.
Simple interest for

5

years =

5 \times 24 = 120

.
Principal (

P

) =

\text{Amount in } 5 \text{ years} - \text{Interest for } 5 \text{ years} = 520 - 120 = 400

.

Q102

General Intelligence & ReasoningSpeed, Time & Distance

A train running at a speed of $90 \text{ km/h}$ crosses a utility pole in $10 \text{ seconds}$ . What is the length of the train in meters?

💡Correct Answer: Option C (250 m)

Speed in m/s =

90 \times \frac{5}{18} = 25 \text{ m/s}

.
Time taken to cross the pole =

10 \text{ s}

.
Length of the train =

\text{Speed} \times \text{Time} = 25 \text{ m/s} \times 10 \text{ s} = 250 \text{ meters}

.

Q103

General Intelligence & ReasoningNumber Series

Complete the following number series: $3, 8, 15, 24, 35, \text{?}$

💡Correct Answer: Option C (48)

The pattern of differences between consecutive terms is:

8 - 3 = 5

15 - 8 = 7

24 - 15 = 9

35 - 24 = 11

The difference is increasing by

2

each time (

5, 7, 9, 11

). The next difference should be

13

.
So, next term =

35 + 13 = 48

.

Basic ReasoningNumber Series: Identifying Wrong Terms

Find the wrong term in the series: 9, 12, 21, 128, 372

💡Correct Answer: Option B (128)

Pattern: Differences are powers of 3 (

3^1=3, 3^2=9, 3^3=27, 3^4=81, 3^5=243

).

9 + 3 = 12

12 + 9 = 21

A and B travel the same distance at speeds of 9 km/h and 12 km/h respectively. If A takes 11 minutes longer than B, what is the distance travelled by each?

💡Correct Answer: Option C (6.6 KM)

Let distance be

D

. Difference in time

= 11\text{ minutes} = \frac{11}{60}\text{ hours}

.

\frac{D}{9} - \frac{D}{12} = \frac{11}{60} \implies \frac{4D - 3D}{36} = \frac{11}{60} \implies \frac{D}{36} = \frac{11}{60} \implies D = \frac{11 \times 36}{60} = \frac{396}{60} = 6.6\text{ km}

General Intelligence & ReasoningLinear Equations & Algebra

If $3x - 5y = 12$ and $x/y = 7/3$ , what is the value of $x$ and $y$ ?

💡Correct Answer: Option C ($x = 14$, $y = 6$)

Given

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{7}{3} \implies x = \frac{7}{3}y

.
Substitute into

3x - 5y = 12

:

3\left(\frac{7}{3}y\right) - 5y = 12

7y - 5y = 12 \implies 2y = 12 \implies y = 6

x = \frac{7}{3}(6) = 14

Thus,

x = 14

How much profit did Lakshay earn on the cost price of an article by selling it?
I. He got 15% discount on the marked price at the time of purchase
II. He sold it for Rs. 2040
III. He earned 2% profit on the marked price

Choose the correct option:

💡Correct Answer: Option D (All I, II and III)

To calculate the total profit earned:
- From I:

\text{CP} = 0.85 \times \text{MP}

- From II:

\text{SP} = 2040

- From III:

\text{SP} = 1.02 \times \text{MP} \implies 1.02 \times \text{MP} = 2040 \implies \text{MP} = 2000

Then

\text{CP} = 0.85 \times 2000 = 1700

, and

\text{Profit} = 2040 - 1700 = 340

.
All three statements I, II, and III together are required to find the exact monetary profit.

Q457

General Intelligence & ReasoningTrue Discount & Commercial Mathematics

The true discount on Rs. 1800 due after a certain time at 10% per annum is Rs. 200. The time after which it is due is:

💡Correct Answer: Option D (15 months)

Present Worth (PW):

\text{PW} = \text{Amount} - \text{True Discount} = 1800 - 200 = 1600

Using the formula

\text{TD} = \frac{\text{PW} \times R \times T}{100}

:

200 = \frac{1600 \times 10 \times T}{100} = 160T

T = \frac{200}{160} = \frac{5}{4}\text{ years} = \frac{5}{4} \times 12 = 15\text{ months}.

Q458

General Intelligence & ReasoningPartnership & Ratio

A and B invest in a business in the ratio 3 : 2. If 5% of the total profit goes to charity and A's share is Rs. 912, the total profit is:

💡Correct Answer: Option B (Rs. 1600)

Let total profit be

P

.
After 5% charity, distributable profit

= 0.95P

.
Ratio of A to B is

3 : 2

, so A's fraction is

\frac{3}{5}

:

\text{A's share} = \frac{3}{5} \times 0.95P = 0.57P = 912

P = \frac{912}{0.57} = \frac{91200}{57} = 1600\text{ Rs}.

Q459

General Intelligence & ReasoningSpeed, Time and Distance

A train increases its normal speed by 12.5% and reaches its destination 20 minutes earlier. What is the actual (normal) time taken by the train on the journey?

💡Correct Answer: Option A (3 hours)

Increase in speed

= 12.5\% = \frac{1}{8}

.
New speed

= S \left(1 + \frac{1}{8}\right) = \frac{9}{8}S

.
Since distance is constant, time is inversely proportional to speed:

\text{New time } T' = \frac{8}{9}T

Time saved

= T - \frac{8}{9}T = \frac{T}{9} = 20\text{ minutes}

T = 9 \times 20 = 180\text{ minutes} = 3\text{ hours}.

A merchant has 800 kg of sugar, part of which he sells at 8% profit and the rest at 18% profit. He gains 14% on the whole. The quantity of sugar sold at 18% profit is:

💡Correct Answer: Option C (480 kg)

Using the rule of Alligation:
- Part 1 (8%) vs. Part 2 (18%), Mean = 14%

\text{Ratio} = (18 - 14) : (14 - 8) = 4 : 6 = 2 : 3

Quantity sold at 18\% profit:

\text{Quantity} = \frac{3}{2 + 3} \times 800 = \frac{3}{5} \times 800 = 480\text{ kg}.

Q461

General Intelligence & ReasoningTime and Work

Manisha takes twice as much time as Usha to complete a work and Ravi does it in the same time as Manisha and Usha together. If all three working together can finish the work in 7 days, then the time taken by Manisha to finish the work is:

💡Correct Answer: Option D (42 days)

Let Usha's time be

x

days

\implies

Manisha's time

= 2x

days.
Combined 1-day work of Manisha and Usha:

\frac{1}{2x} + \frac{1}{x} = \frac{3}{2x}

Ravi's 1-day work is equal to Manisha + Usha together

= \frac{3}{2x}

.
All three together in 1 day:

\frac{3}{2x} + \frac{3}{2x} = \frac{6}{2x} = \frac{3}{x} = \frac{1}{7} \implies x = 21\text{ days}

Time taken by Manisha

= 2x = 2 \times 21 = 42\text{ days}

.

The average salary of all the workers in a workshop is Rs. 10,000. The average salary of 6 technicians is Rs. 15,000 and the average salary of the rest is Rs. 8000. The total number of workers in the workshop is:

💡Correct Answer: Option A (21)

Let total workers be

N

.
Total salary

= 10000N

.
Salary of 6 technicians

= 6 \times 15000 = 90000

.
Salary of remaining

(N - 6)

workers

= (N - 6) \times 8000

.
Equation:

90000 + 8000(N - 6) = 10000N

90000 + 8000N - 48000 = 10000N

42000 = 2000N \implies N = 21.

- New Savings

= 550 - 336 = 214

Increase in savings

= 214 - 200 = 14

.
Percentage increase in savings:

\%\text{Increase} = \frac{14}{200} \times 100 = 7\%.

Q465

General Intelligence & ReasoningNumber Systems & Squares

The least number by which 1470 must be divided to get a number which is a perfect square, is:

💡Correct Answer: Option D (30)

Prime factorization of 1470:

1470 = 2 \times 3 \times 5 \times 7^2 = (2 \times 3 \times 5) \times 7^2 = 30 \times 7^2

To make the quotient a perfect square (

7^2 = 49

), the unpaired factors

2 \times 3 \times 5 = 30

must be divided out.
Hence, the required least number is 30.

Q608

General Mental Ability, Reasoning & Data InterpretationRelative Road Displacement

A and B start moving towards each other from two places 200m apart. After walking 60m, B turns left and goes 20 m, then he turns right and goes 40m. He turns right again and comes back to the road on which he had started walking. If A and B walk with the same speed, what is the distance between them now?

💡Correct Answer: Option C (40 m)

Total distance walked by B

= 60 + 20 + 40 + 20 = 140\text{ m}

. Since A walks at the same speed, A also walks

140\text{ m}

along the road. Displacement of B along road

= 60 + 40 = 100\text{ m}

. Displacement of A along road

= 60\text{ m}

(or 140m). Distance between them along the road

= 200 - (60 + 100) = 40\text{ m}

Basic Mathematics, Quantitative Aptitude & ReasoningClocks & Time Loss

A clock is set right at 12 noon. It loses 10 minutes in 24 hours. What will be the time indicated by the clock at 3:00 PM on the 4th day?

💡Correct Answer: Option B (02:30 PM)

From 12 noon on day 1 to 3:00 PM on day 4 is exactly 75 hours (

3 \times 24 = 72\text{ hours} + 3\text{ hours}

). Rate of loss

= \frac{10\text{ min}}{24\text{ hrs}} = \frac{5}{12}\text{ min/hr}

. Total loss in 75 hours

= 75 \times \frac{5}{12} = 31.25\text{ minutes} \approx 30\text{ minutes}

. When true time is 3:00 PM, the clock will indicate

3:00\text{ PM} - 30\text{ minutes} = 02:30\text{ PM}

💡Correct Answer: Option C (55)

Substitute the mathematical operators according to the given rules:

18 \times 36 \div 12 - 6 + 7

Applying BODMAS (Division first, then Multiplication):
1.

36 \div 12 = 3

2.

18 \times 3 = 54

3.

54 - 6 + 7 = 48 + 7 = 55

Therefore, the result is 55.

Q1128

Some equations have been solved on the basis of a certain system. Find the correct answer for the unsolved equation on that basis:
If 98 - 39 - 27 = 31, and 87 - 38 - 34 = 20, then 79 - 25 - 12 = ?

💡Correct Answer: Option A (51)

The pattern involves multiplying the individual digits of each two-digit number and subtracting them consecutively:
- For

98 - 39 - 27 = 31

:

(9 \times 8) - (3 \times 9) - (2 \times 7) = 72 - 27 - 14 = 31

- For

87 - 38 - 34 = 20

:

(8 \times 7) - (3 \times 8) - (3 \times 4) = 56 - 24 - 12 = 20

- Applying the same logic to

79 - 25 - 12

:

(7 \times 9) - (2 \times 5) - (1 \times 2) = 63 - 10 - 2 = 51

Hence, the correct answer is 51.

Q1129

Mental Ability & Logical Reasoningreasoning-analogies-classification

Select the missing number from the given responses:

$\begin{matrix} 7 & 14 & 4 \\ 4 & 12 & 9 \\ 6 & 24 & ? \end{matrix}$

💡Correct Answer: Option B (16)

Examine the relationship across each row (Row 1 to Row 3):
- Row 1: Divide the middle number by the first, then square the result:

\left(\frac{14}{7}\right)^2 = 2^2 = 4

- Row 2:

\left(\frac{12}{4}\right)^2 = 3^2 = 9

- Row 3:

\left(\frac{24}{6}\right)^2 = 4^2 = 16

Thus, the missing number in the third column is 16.

A man starts from a point and walks 30 metres towards South. He turns to his right and walks 30 metres. He then turns to his left and walks 20 metres. Again he turns to his left and walks 30 metres. How far is he from his starting point?

💡Correct Answer: Option A (50 metres)

Let's trace the person's coordinates starting at

(0, 0)

:
1. 30 m South:

(0, -30)

2. Turns right (facing West) and walks 30 m:

(-30, -30)

3. Turns left (facing South) and walks 20 m:

(-30, -50)

4. Turns left (facing East) and walks 30 m:

(-30 + 30, -50) = (0, -50)

The final position is directly 50 metres South of the starting point

(0, 0)

. Thus, he is 50 metres away.
