2) Paul the octopus who has been forecasting the outcome of FIFA world cup
matches with tremendous accuracy has now been invited to predict ICC world cup
matches in 2011. We will assume that the world cup contenders have been
divided into 2 groups of 9 teams each. Each team in a group plays the other
teams in the group. The top two teams from each group enter the semi finals
(after which the winner is decided by knockout).
However, Paul has a soft spot for India and when India plays any team, Paul
always backs India. Alas, his predictions on matches involving India are right only
2 out of 3 times. In order to qualify for the semi finals, it is sufficient for India to

7) A fisherman's day is rated as good if he catches 9 fishes, fair if 7 fishes and bad if 5
fishes. He catches 53 fishes in a week n had all good, fair n bad days in the week. So how
many good, fair n bad days did the fisher man had in the week
Ans:4 good, 1 fair n 2 bad days
Sol) Go to river catch fish
4*9=36
7*1=7
2*5=10
36+7+10=53...
take what is given 53
good days means --- 9 fishes so 53/9=4(remainder=17) if u assume 5 then there is no
chance for bad days.
fair days means ----- 7 fishes so remaining 17 --- 17/7=1(remainder=10) if u assume 2
then there is no chance for bad days.
bad days means -------5 fishes so remaining 10---10/5=2days.
Ans: 4 good, 1 fair, 2bad. ==== total 7 days.
x+y+z=7--------- eq1
9*x+7*y+5*z=53 -------eq2
multiply eq 1 by 9,
9*x+9*y+9*z=35 -------------eq3
from eq2 and eq3
2*y+4*z=10-----eq4
since all x,y and z are integer i sud put a integer value of y such that z sud be integer in eq
4 .....and ther will be two value y=1 or 3 then z = 2 or 1 from eq 4
for first y=1,z=2 then from eq1 x= 4
so 9*4+1*7+2*5=53.... satisfied
now for second y=3 z=1 then from eq1 x=3
so 9*3+3*7+1*5=53 ......satisfied
so finally there are two solution of this question
(x,y,z)=(4,1,2) and (3,3,1)...
8) Y catches 5 times more fishes than X. If total number of fishes caught by X and Y is 42,
then number of fishes caught by X?
Sol) Let no. of fish x catches=p
no. caught by y =r
r=5p.
r+p=42
then p=7,r=35
9) Three companies are working independently and receiving the savings 20%, 30%,
40%. If the companies work combinely, what will be their net savings?
suppose total income is 100
so amount x is getting is 80
y is 70
z =60
total=210
but total money is 300
300-210=90
so they are getting 90 rs less
90 is 30% of 300 so they r getting 30% discount
10) The ratio of incomes of C and D is 3:4.the ratio of their expenditures is 4:5. Find the
ratio of their savings if the savings of C is one fourths of his income?
Sol) incomes:3:4

12) If A can copy 50 pages in 10 hours and A and B together can copy 70 pages in 10
hours, how much time does B takes to copy 26 pages?
Sol) A can copy 50 pages in 10 hrs.
A can copy 5 pages in 1hr.(50/10)
now A & B can copy 70 pages in 10hrs.
thus, B can copy 90 pages in 10 hrs.[eqn. is (50+x)/2=70, where x--> no. of pages B can
copy in 10 hrs.]
so, B can copy 9 pages in 1hr.
therefore, to copy 26 pages B will need almost 3hrs.

diamension(9X7) and sarting add. is 3000, What is the address of (2,3)........
Sol) it's a 9x7 int array so it reqiure a 126 bytes for storing.b'ze integer value need 2 byes
of memory allocation. and starting add is 3000
so starting add of 2x3 will be 3012.
15) In a two-dimensional array, X (9, 7), with each element occupying 4 bytes of memory,
with the address of the first element X (1, 1) is 3000, find the address of X (8, 5).
Sol) initial x (1,1) = 3000 u hav to find from x(8,1)so u have x(1,1),x(1,2) ... x(7,7) = so
u have totally 7 * 7 = 49 elementsu need to find for x(8,5) ? here we have 5 elements
each element have 4 bytes : (49 + 5 -1) * 4 = 212 -----( -1 is to deduct the 1 element )
3000 + 212 = 3212
17) The size of a program is N. And the memory occupied by the program is given by M =
square root of 100N. If the size of the program is increased by 1% then how much
memory now occupied ?
Sol) M=sqrt(100N)
N is increased by 1%
therefore new value of N=N + (N/100)
=101N/100
M=sqrt(100 * (101N/100) )
Hence, we get M=sqrt(101 * N)
19) A bus started from bustand at 8.00a m and after 30 min staying at destination, it
returned back to the bustand. the destination is 27 miles from the bustand. the speed of
the bus 50 percent fast speed. at what time it returns to the bustand this is the step by
step solution:
a bus cover 27 mile with 18 mph in =27/18= 1 hour 30 min. and it wait at stand =30 min.
after this speed of return increase by 50% so 50%of 18 mph=9mph
Total speed of returnig=18+9=27
Then in return it take 27/27=1 hour
then total time in joureny=1+1:30+00:30 =3 hour
so it will come at 8+3 hour=11 a.m.
So Ans==11 a.m
20) In two dimensional array X(7,9) each element occupies 2 bytes of memory.If the
address of first element X(1,1)is 1258 then what will be the address of the element
X(5,8) ?
Sol) Here, the address of first element x[1][1] is 1258 and also 2 byte of memory is given.
now, we have to solve the address of element x[5][8], therefore, 1258+ 5*8*2 =
1258+80 = 1338 so the answer is 1338.
21) The temperature at Mumbai is given by the function: -t2/6+4t+12 where t is the

26) The total expense of a boarding house are partly fixed and partly variable with the
number of boarders. The charge is Rs.70 per head when there are 25 boarders and Rs.60
when there are 50 boarders. Find the charge per head when there are 100 boarders.
a) 65 b) 55 c) 50 d) 45
Sol)
Let a = fixed cost and k = variable cost and n = number of boarders
total cost when 25 boarders c = 25*70 = 1750 i.e. 1750 = a + 25k
total cost when 50 boarders c = 50*60 = 3000 i.e. 3000 = a + 50k
solving above 2 eqns, 3000-1750 = 25k i.e. 1250 = 25k i.e. k = 50
therefore, substituting this value of k in either of above 2 eqns we get
a = 500 (a = 3000-50*50 = 500 or a = 1750 - 25*50 = 500)
so total cost when 100 boarders = c = a + 100k = 500 + 100*50 = 5500
so cost per head = 5500/100 = 55
27) Amal bought 5 pens, 7 pencils and 4 erasers. Rajan bought 6 pens, 8 erasers and 14
pencils for an amount which was half more than what Amal had paid. What % of the total
amount paid by Amal was paid for pens?
a) 37.5% b) 62.5% c) 50% d) None of these
Sol)
Let, 5 pens + 7 pencils + 4 erasers = x rupees
so 10 pens + 14 pencils + 8 erasers = 2*x rupees
also mentioned, 6 pens + 14 pencils + 8 erarsers = 1.5*x rupees
so (10-6) = 4 pens = (2-1.5)x rupees
so 4 pens = 0.5x rupees => 8 pens = x rupees
so 5 pens = 5x/8 rupees = 5/8 of total (note x rupees is total amt paid byamal)
i.e 5/8 = 500/8% = 62.5% is the answer
28) I lost Rs.68 in two races. My second race loss is Rs.6 more than the first race. My
friend lost Rs.4 more than me in the second race. What is the amount lost by my friend in
the second race?
Sol)
x + x+6 = rs 68
2x + 6 = 68
2x = 68-6
2x = 62
x=31
x is the amt lost in I race
x+ 6 = 31+6=37 is lost in second race
then my friend lost 37 + 4 = 41 Rs

box whose colour is same as that of the ball in a yellow box. Red box has green ball. In
which box you find the yellow ball?
ans is green...
Sol) Yellow box can have either of pink/yellow balls.
if we put a yellow ball in "yellow" box then it wud imply that "yellow" is also the colour of
the box which has the red ball(becoz acordin 2 d question,d box of the red ball n the ball in
the yellow box have same colour)
thus this possibility is ruled out...
therefore the ball in yellow box must be pink,hence the colour of box containin red ball is
also pink....
=>the box colour left out is "green",,,which is alloted to the only box left,,,the one which
has yellow ball..
55) A bag contains 20 yellow balls, 10 green balls, 5 white balls, 8 black balls, and 1 red
