4.

What is the number?

I. 

The sum of the two digits is 8. The ratio of the two digits is 1 : 3.

 II. 

The product of the two digit of a number is 12. The quotient of two digits is 3.

I alone sufficient while II alone not sufficient to answer
II alone sufficient while I alone not sufficient to answer
Either I or II alone sufficient to answer
Both I and II are not sufficient to answer
Both I and II are necessary to answer
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the tens and units digit be x and y respectively. Then,

 I. x + y = 8 and x = 1
y 3

I gives, 4y = 24       y = 6.

So, x + 6 = 8       x = 2.


II. xy = 12 and x = 3
y 1

II gives, x2 = 36       x = 6.

So, 3y = 6       y = 2.


Therefore, Either I or II alone sufficient to answer.


5.

In a certain school, 20% of students are below 8 years of age. The number of students above 8 years of age is of the number of students of 8 years of age which is 48. What is the total number of students in the school?

72
80
120
150
100
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the number of students be x. Then,

Number of students above 8 years of age = (100 - 20)% of x = 80% of x.

80% of x = 48 + 2 of 48
3

80 x = 80
100

x = 100.

Two pipes can fill a tank in 20 and 24 minutes respectively and a waste pipe can empty 3 gallons per minute. All the three pipes working together can fill the tank in 15 minutes. The capacity of the tank is:
60 gallons
100 gallons
120 gallons
180 gallons
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Work done by the waste pipe in 1 minute = 1 - 1 + 1
15 20 24

    = 1 - 11
15 120

    = -  1 .    [-ve sign means emptying]
40

Volume of 1 part = 3 gallons.
40

Volume of whole = (3 x 40) gallons = 120 gallons.

Two goods train each 500 m long, are running in opposite directions on parallel tracks. Their speeds are 45 km/hr and 30 km/hr respectively. Find the time taken by the slower train to pass the driver of the faster one.
12 sec
24 sec
48 sec
60 sec
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Relative speed = = (45 + 30) km/hr
= ( 75 x 5 ( m/sec
18
= ( 125 ( m/sec.
6

We have to find the time taken by the slower train to pass the DRIVER of the faster train and not the complete train.

So, distance covered = Length of the slower train.

Therefore, Distance covered = 500 m.

Therefore Required time = ( 500 x 6 ( = 24 sec.
125


Direction (Q.No. 8)

Each of the questions given below consists of a question followed by three statements. You have to study the question and the statements and decide which of the statement(s) is/are necessary to answer the question.

What is the speed of the boat in still water?

I. 

The speed downstream is 12 kmph.

II. 

The speed upstream is 4 kmph.

 III. 

In a to and fro journey between two points, the average speed of the boat was 6 kmph.

I and II only
All I, II and III
III, and either I or II
Any two of the three
None of these
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

From I and II, speed of boat in still water = 1 (12 + 4) km/hr = 8 km/hr.
2

From II and III, we get:

Using average speed = 2xy , we get: 2 x 4 x y = 6
x + y 4 + y

8y = 24 + 6y

y = 12.

Required speed = 1 (12 + 4) km/hr = 8 km/hr.
2

Similarly, I and III also give the answer.

Correct answer is (D).

Mr. Thomas invested an amount of Rs. 13,900 divided in two different schemes A and B at the simple interest rate of 14% p.a. and 11% p.a. respectively. If the total amount of simple interest earned in 2 years be Rs. 3508, what was the amount invested in Scheme B?
Rs. 6400
Rs. 6500
Rs. 7200
Rs. 7500
None of these
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the sum invested in Scheme A be Rs. x and that in Scheme B be Rs. (13900 - x).

Then, x x 14 x 2 + (13900 - x) x 11 x 2 = 3508
100 100

28x - 22x = 350800 - (13900 x 22)

6x = 45000

x = 7500.

So, sum invested in Scheme B = Rs. (13900 - 7500) = Rs. 6400.

An error 2% in excess is made while measuring the side of a square. The percentage of error in the calculated area of the square is:
2%
2.02%
4%
4.04%
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

100 cm is read as 102 cm.

A1 = (100 x 100) cm2 and A2 (102 x 102) cm2.

(A2 - A1) = [(102)2 - (100)2]

= (102 + 100) x (102 - 100)

= 404 cm2.

Percentage error = 404 x 100 % = 4.04%
100 x 100


Direction (Q.No. 12)

Each of these questions is followed by three statements. You have to study the question and all the three statements given to decide whether any information provided in the statement(s) is redundant and can be dispensed with while answering the given question.

12.

What is the area of the given rectangle?

Perimeter of the rectangle is 60 cm.

II. 

Breadth of the rectangle is 12 cm.

 III. 

Sum of two adjacent sides is 30 cm.

I only
II only
I and II only
II and III only
II and either I or III
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

From I and II, we can find the length and breadth of the rectangle and therefore the area can be obtained.

So, III is redundant.

Also, from II and III, we can find the length and breadth and therefore the area can be obtained.

So, I is redundant.

Correct answer is "II and either I or III".

What is the volume of a cube?

I. 

The area of each face of the cube is 64 square metres.

 II. 

The length of one side of the cube is 8 metres.

I alone sufficient while II alone not sufficient to answer
II alone sufficient while I alone not sufficient to answer
Either I or II alone sufficient to answer
Both I and II are not sufficient to answer
Both I and II are necessary to answer
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let each edge be a metres. Then,

I. a2 = 64       a = 8 m       Volume = (8 x 8 x 8) m3 = 512 m3.

Thus, I alone gives the answer.

II. a = 8 m       Volume = (8 x 8 x 8) m3 = 512 m3.

Thus, II alone gives the answer.

Correct answer is (C).

The interest on Rs. 750 for 2 years is the same as the true discount on Rs. 960 due 2 years hence. If the rate of interest is the same in both cases, it is:
12%
14%
15%
16 2 %
3
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

S.I. on Rs. 750 = T.D. on Rs. 960.

This means P.W. of Rs. 960 due 2 years hence is Rs. 750.

T.D. = Rs. (960 - 750) = Rs. 210.

Thus, S.I. on R.s 750 for 2 years is Rs. 210.

Rate = 100 x 210 % = 14%
750 x 2

Two ships are sailing in the sea on the two sides of a lighthouse. The angle of elevation of the top of the lighthouse is observed from the ships are 30° and 45° respectively. If the lighthouse is 100 m high, the distance between the two ships is:
173 m
200 m
273 m
300 m
Your Answer: Option
(Not Answered)
Correct Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let AB be the lighthouse and C and D be the positions of the ships.

Then, AB = 100 m, ACB = 30° and ADB = 45°.

AB = tan 30° = 1         AC = AB x 3 = 1003 m.
AC 3

AB = tan 45° = 1         AD = AB = 100 m.
AD

CD = (AC + AD) = (1003 + 100) m
= 100(3 + 1)
= (100 x 2.73) m
= 273 m.
