  • Question 1/10
    3 / -0

    Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.

    (72, 11, 60)

    (48, 5, 32)

    (NOTE : Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding /deleting /multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is NOT allowed)

    Solutions

    The logic followed here is :-

    1st + 3rd number = 2nd number × (1st - 3rd number)

    (72, 11, 60)

    72 + 60 = 11 × (72 - 60)

    132 = 11 × 12 

    = 132 = 132.

    For, (48, 5, 32)

    48 + 32 = 5 × (48 - 32)

    80 = 5 × 16

    = 80 = 80.

    Similarly, for  (64, 15, 56)

    64 + 56 = 15 × (64 - 56)

    120 = 15 × 8

    120 = 120.

    Hence, the correct answer is "(64, 15, 56)".

    Alternate Method

    Second number = (First number ÷ (First number - Third number)) +  (Third number ÷ (First number - Third number))

    (72, 11, 60) → (72 ÷ (72 - 60)) + (60 ÷ (72 - 60)) = (72 ÷ 12) + (60 ÷ 12) = 6 + 5 = 11

    And

    (48, 5, 32) → (48 ÷ (48 - 32)) + (32 ÷ (48 - 32)) = (48 ÷ 16) + (32 ÷ 16) = 3 + 2 = 5

    Similarly,

    (64, 15, 56) → (64 ÷ (64 - 56)) + (56 ÷ (64 - 56)) = (64 ÷ 8) + (56 ÷ 8) = 8 + 7 = 15

    Hence, the correct answer is "(64, 15, 56)".

  • Question 2/10
    3 / -0

    Seven people, A, B, C, D, E, F and G, are sitting in a straight row, facing the north. Only two people sit to the left of G. Only two people sit between A and F. A sits to the left of F. D is an immediate neighbour of F to the right. Only one person sits to the right of B. E is not an immediate neighbour of G. Who sits to the immediate right of B?

    Solutions

    From the given information:

    Step 1: Only two people sit to the left of G. Only one person sits to the right of B.

    We place G such that there are 2 spots left to its left & place B such that there is 1 spot left to its right.

    Step 2: Only two people sit between A and F. A sits to the left of F. D is an immediate neighbour of F to the right.

    Now we place A and F such that A is to the left and there are 2 spots between them and then we can place D to the right of F.

    Step 3: E is not an immediate neighbour of G.

    Now we place C next to G because E cannot be placed there and at last we place E at the only spot left.

    From the arrangement, we can see that E sits to the immediate right of B.

    Hence the correct answer is option 4).

  • Question 3/10
    3 / -0

    Select the option figure in which the given figure (X) is embedded as its part (rotation is NOT allowed).

    Solutions

    Given:

    • The image must not to be rotated

    Hence, the correct answer is "Option - (3)".

  • Question 4/10
    3 / -0

    Arrange the following words as per order in the dictionary.

    1. Tortoise

    2. Torrid

    3. Torso

    4. Torque

    5. Tortuous

    Solutions

    According to the sequence in the dictionary:

    The correct order of the given words is:

    4. Torque

    2. Torrid

    3. Torso

    1. Tortoise

    5. Tortuous

    Hence the correct order is "4, 2, 3, 1, 5".

    Additional Information

    1. First of all check the common letters in all.

    2. When common letters are arranged then go for the rest.

  • Question 5/10
    3 / -0

    If × means +, ÷ means -, + means ×, - means ÷, what will come in place of the question mark (?) in the given expression?

    182 - 13 × 5 + 16 ÷ 44 = ?

    Solutions

    Given equation : 182 - 13 × 5 + 16 ÷ 44

    By interchanging signs using BODMAS rule we get,

    182 ÷ 13 + 5 × 16 - 44

    14 + 5 × 16 - 44

    14 + 80 - 44

    94 - 44

    50

    Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

  • Question 6/10
    3 / -0

    Which of the following interchanges of signs would make the given equation correct?

    272 ÷ 16 × 18 – 6 + 113 = 337

    Solutions

    Let's solve the given series using BODMAS rule in each option;

    1) − and ÷

    Given equation: 272 ÷ 16 × 18 - 6 + 113 = 337

    After interchanging the signs, we get:

    = 272 - 16 × 18 ÷ 6 + 113

    = 272 - 48 + 113

    = 385 - 48

    = 337 = R.H.S

    2) + and ×

    Given equation:  272 ÷ 16 × 18 - 6 + 113 = 337

    After interchanging the signs, we get:

    = 272 ÷ 16 + 18 - 6 × 113

    = 17 + 18 - 678

    = 643 ≠ 337

    3) ÷ and + 

    Given equation: 272 ÷ 16 × 18 - 6 + 113 = 337

    After interchanging the signs, we get:

    = 272 + 16 × 18 - 6  ÷ 113

    = 272 + 288 - 0.05

    = 559.5 ≠ 337

    4) × and −

    Given equation: 272 ÷ 16 × 18 - 6 + 113 = 337

    After interchanging the signs, we get:

    = 272  ÷ 16 - 18 × 6 + 133

    = 17 - 108 + 133

    = 42 ≠ 337

    Hence, The correct answer is "− and ÷".

  • Question 7/10
    3 / -0

    Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements.

    Statements:

    All dancers are sportspersons.

    All sportspersons are males.

    Conclusions:

    I. All dancers are males.

    II. Some sportspersons are dancers.

    Solutions

    The lease possible Venn diagram is:

    Conclusions:

    I. All dancers are males. → Follow (As, All dancers are sportspersons and All sportspersons are males)

    II. Some sportspersons are dancers. → Follow (As, All dancers are sportspersons)

    Hence, Both the conclusions follow.
