Question 21 of 40
The number 642 is added to a 3-digit number 7x2 to give a 4 digit 13y4 which is exactly divisible by 11.
Find xy.
A. 12
B. 10
C. 24
D. 18
Explanation :
If a number is divisible by 11,means difference between it's digits at odd and even place should be 0 or
multiples of 11.
So, for 13y4 to be divisible by 11, 1+y should be equal to 3 + 4 i.e
=> 1+y=3+4
=> y=6
Therefore no is 1364
Now subtract 642 from 1364=722
Therefore x=2
Hence, xy=12.

Question 2 of 40
Pipe A takes 16 min to fill a tank. Pipes B and C, whose cross-sectional circumferences are in the ratio
2:3, fill another tank twice as big as the first. If A has a cross-sectional circumference that is one-third of
C, how long will it take for B and C to fill the second tank? (Assume the rate at which water flows
through a unit cross-sectional area is same for all the three pipes.)
A. 32/13
B. 1/13
C. 20/13
D. None
Explanation :
Let the cross sectional circumference of A is x so its area will be proportional to x^2,
Now it is given that A has a cross-sectional circumference that is one-third of C,
so cross sectional circumference of C will be 3x, and its area will be proportional to 9x^2.
According to the given condition, cross sectional circumference of B will be (2/3)*3x = 2x, so its area will
be proportional to 4x^2.
Since pipe A for which cross sectional area is proportional to x^2, fills the tank in 16 min.
So pipe B and C for which sum of cross sectional area is proportional to 13x^2, will fill the same tank in
16/13 min.
but second tank is twice big in size so time required = 2*16/13 = 32/13 min.

Paragraph/Instructions
Organisations are institutions in which members compete for status and power. They compete for
resource of the organisation, for example finance to expand their own departments, for career
advancement and for power to control the activities of others. In pursuit of these aims, grouped are
formed and sectional interests emerge. As a result, policy decisions may serve the ends of political and
career systems rather than those of the concern. In this way, the goals of the organisation may be
displaced in favor of sectional interests and individual ambition. These preoccupations sometimes
prevent the emergence of organic systems. Many of the electronic firms in the study had recently
created research and development departments employing highly qualified and well paid scientists and
technicians. Their high pay and expert knowledge were sometimes seen as a threat to the established
order of rank, power and privilege. Many senior managers had little knowledge of technicality and
possibilities of new developments and electronics. Some felt that close cooperation with the experts in
an organic system would reveal their ignorance and show their experience was now redundant.

1/3 of a certain journey is covered at the rate of 25km/hr,1/4 at the rate of 30 km/hr and the rest is 50
km/hr.the avg speed for the whole journey is :
A. 30
B. 100/3
C. 65/3
D. None
Explanation :
Let assume total distance will be 120km then,

Distance traveled at the speed 25km/hr=1/3*120=40km the time=40/25=1.6 hrs.
Distance traveled at the speed 30km/hr=1/4*120=30kmthe time is=30/30=1 hr.
Then remaining distance is 120-40-30=50km
The time taken to travel 50km=50/50=1hr
So, total time is=1.6+1+1=3.6 hrs
So, average speed =120/3.6=100/3 km/hr.
Question 2 of 40
8 litres are drawn from a cask full of wine and is then filled with water. This operation is performed
three more times. The ratio of the quantity of wine now left in cask to that of water is 16 : 81. How
much wine did the cask hold originally?
A. 18 litres
B. 24 litres
C. 32 litres
D. 42 litres
Explanation :
Let the quantity of the wine in the cask originally be x litres.
Then, quantity of wine left in cask after 4 operations = x(1-8/x)^4 litres.

therefore, (x(1-8/x)^4)/x=16/81
=>(1-8/x)^4=(2/3)^4
=>x-8/x=2/3
=>3x-24=2x
=>x=24 litres.

the road is :
A. 4 metres
B. 5 metres
C. 6 metres
D. 7 metres
Explanation :
Let radius of inner circle=r1.

Rradius of outer circle=r2
Also, r1=1/3*r2
=> 3*r1=r2
Circumference of inner circle=2*pi*r1.
Circumference of outer circle=2*pi*r2
=> 6*pi*r1 (since r2=3*r1)
=> 2*pi*r1 + 6*pi*r1 =88 (as per question)
=> r1=3.5 m
=> r2=3*3.5
=> 10.5 m
Width of road =10.5 - 3.5 =7m.

D. 60%
E. 66.6%
Explanation :
Let the S.P. be 100 Rs.
On giving 20 % discount,,S.p. will be 80Rs.
Profit %=profit*100/C.P.
20=profit*100/C.P.
CP.=5*profit
CP.=5*(s.p.-c.p.)
CP.=5*(80-c.p.)
(c.p./5)+c.p.=80
CP = 66.66 Rs
At no discount,S.P.=100Rs.
CP.= 66.66 Rs.
Profit = 33.34
Profit% = profit*100/c.p
=> 33.34*100/66.66
Hence, Profit% = 50.

Until the end of his first year at school, Cyril retained many of the pleasures and pursuits he had brought
with him from home, and he kept an old interest in butterflies and fossils. His grandmother had
presented him with a fine bird's eggs cabinet, but he could never bring himself to risk in climbing trees.
Once or twice he dissected dead birds from sheer determination to overcome his horror of the
operation. Probably it was his envy of those physically unlike himself that brought on a phase during
which he drew massive athletes with thick necks and square shoulders. Again he was pitying himself for
what he could never be.

Explanation :
Detective glories tend to glorify crime. Murderers, gangsters and crooks all kinds are described as tough,
cunning and courageous individuals who know how to take care of themselves and how to get what
they want. In James McCain's The Postman Always Rings twice, for instance the villain is much more a
impressive character than his victim. He is casual brave smart and successful with women. It is true that
he finally gets caught. But he is punished for a crime that he did not commit, so that his conviction is
hardly a triumph of justice. Besides, looking back over the exciting life of the criminal, the reader might
conclude that it was worth the risk.

Question 39 of 40
What is the output of the following program on GCC compiler?
#include <stdio.h>
int fun(int);
int main(){
int y,s=2,t=5;
y= fun(s+t);
printf("s=%d t=%d y= %d\n",s,t,y );
return 0;
int t=8;
int fun(int s){
s++;
t++;
return(s+t);
A. s=2 t=5 y= 17
B. s=2 t=5 y= 8
C. Garbage value
D. Compiler Error
Explanation :
In the above code, the function fun() is called by passing 7( 2 + 5) that gets stored in variable 's' of the
function. In the fun(), value of s and t is incremented to 8 and 9 respectively and the value 17 (8 + 9) is
returned and gets stored in variable y of the function main().
Since, the value of 's' in the function fun() doesn't exist outside of it, the 's' in the printf() function is
denoting value of the local variable 's' i.e 2 declared in main(). The scope of the variable 't = 8' is
declared 'global' and scope of 't=5' is local to the main() function.
Since, local variable has higher priority than the global variable, the printf() prints the value of local
variable t i.e 5.
Hence, we get the output as "s=2 t=5 y= 17".

work by working 8hr/day ?
A. 2
B. 3
C. 5
D. 7
Explanation :
6 Women---8*5(=40)DayHour---75 Units
4 Women---8*5 DayHour---75*2/3(=50)Units
4 Women---40(3/5)DayHour---30 Units
4 Women---24 Dayhour---30 Units
So for 30 Units of work,4 Women working 8 hr/day requires 24/8= 3 days.
Question 3 of 40
A certain party consists of four different group of people 30 students, 35 politicians, 20 actors and 27
leaders. On a particular function day, the total cost spent on party members was Rs.9000. It was found
that 6 students spent as much as 7 politicians, 15 politicians spent as much as 12 actors and 10 actors
spent as much as 9 leaders. How much did students spent?
A. 2245
B. 2285
C. 2290
D. 2291
Explanation :
Let, the amount spent for all students, politicians, actors and leaders be S, P, A and L respectively.
Given that, 6 students spent as much as 7 politicians.
So, Amount spent per student x 6 = Amount spent per politician x 7

Or (Total amount spent on students / Total Students) x 6 = (Total amount spent on politicians / Total
politicians)x 7
Or, (S/30)x 6 = (P/35)x7
=> S/5 = P/5.
=> S = P --------(i)
15 politicians spent as much as 12 actors :

Therefore, (P/35)x15 = (A/20)x12
=> 3P/7 = 3A/5
=> 5P = 7P
=> 5S = 7A (since S = P)
=> A = 5S/7 ----------(ii)
And 10 actors spent as much as 9 leaders :

Therefore, (A/20)x10 = (L/27)x9
=> 3A = 2L
=> A = 2L/3
=> 5S/7 = 2L/3 (since A=5S/7)
=> L = 15S/14 -----------(iii)
The total amount spent for the party is Rs.9000 i.e., S + P + A + L = 9000.
from eqn(i), eq(ii) and eq(iii). we have
=> S + S + 5S/7 + 15S/14 = 9000
=> 53S/14 = 9000
=> s=9000*14 / 53
=> s=2290.90 ~ 2291.
Hence, the answer is Rs.2291.
Question 4 of 40
8 litres are drawn from a cask full of wine and is then filled with water. This operation is performed
three more times. The ratio of the quantity of wine now left in cask to that of water is 16 : 81. How
much wine did the cask hold originally?
A. 18 litres
B. 24 litres
C. 32 litres
D. 42 litres
Explanation :
Let the quantity of the wine in the cask originally be x litres.
Then, quantity of wine left in cask after 4 operations = x(1-8/x)^4 litres.

therefore, (x(1-8/x)^4)/x=16/81
=>(1-8/x)^4=(2/3)^4
=>x-8/x=2/3
=>3x-24=2x
=>x=24 litres.
Question 5 of 40
In three annual examinations, of which the aggregate marks of each was 500, a student secured average
marks 45% and 55% in the first and the second yearly examinations respectively. To secure 60% average
total marks, it is necessary for him in third yearly examination to secure marks :
A. 300
B. 350
C. 400
D. 450
Explanation :
Total marks:1500 for three exams.

Now, 60% of 1500 = 900
First exam marks=45% of 500=225
Second exam marks=55% of 500=275
Let X be the third exam marks
=>225 + 275 + X =900
=> X=400.
Question 6 of 40
Mukesh weight 56.7 kg. If he reduces his weight in the ratio 7:6. New weight of Mukesh is __?
A. 50.5
B. 48.6
C. 45.5
D. 55.3
Explanation :
Given ratio is 7:6;

let weight before and after reduction be 7x and 6x respectively.
Acording to the question,
=> 7x=56.7
=> x=56.7/7
=> x= 8.1
Reduced weight= 6x= 6*8.1= 48.6;
hence reduced weight= 48.6.

Home security provides a security code for the door which consist of five buttons. Code may be
generated by pressing any one button , any three , any four or all five. How many such codes are
possible ?
A. 32
B. 10
C. 31
D. 5
Explanation :
For any one button, number of combinations = 5c1 = 5.

For any 3 button, total no of combinations = 5c3 *2! = 20.
For 4 buttons = 5c4 * 1! = 5.
For 5 buttons = 1.
Hence, Total number of codes = 5 + 20 + 5 + 1 = 31.
Question 9 of 40

D. 3363
Explanation :
L.C.M. of 5, 6, 7, 8 = 840.
Required number is of the form 840k + 3
Least value of k for which (840k + 3) is divisible by 9 is k = 2.

Required number = (840 x 2 + 3) = 1683.

drunken orgies of power and national pride man may flout and jeer at it. when organised national
selfishness, racial antipathy and commercial self seeking begin to display their ugly deformities in all
their nakedness, then comes the time for man to know that his salvation is not in political organisations
and extended trade relations, not in any mechanical re-arrangement of social system but in a deeper
transformation of life, in the liberation of consciousness in love, in the realisation of God in man

Which of the following sorting algorithms can be used to sort a linked list,keeping time complexity in
mind?
A. Insertion Sort
B. Merge Sort
C. Quick Sort
D. Heap
Explanation :
Both Merge sort and Insertion sort can be used for linked lists. The slow random-access performance of
a linked list makes other algorithms (such as quicksort) perform poorly, and others (such as heapsort)
completely impossible. Since worst case time complexity of Merge Sort is O(nLogn) and Insertion sort is
O(n^2), merge sort is preferred.

Therefore, Husband's present age = (90 - 50) years = 40 years.
Question 2 of 40
The length of the bridge, which a train 130 metres long and travelling at 45 km/hr can cross in 30
seconds, is:
A. 200 m
B. 225 m
C. 245 m
D. 250 m
Explanation :
Speed = (45 x 5/18)m/sec = 25 m/sec.

Time = 30 sec.
Let the length of bridge be x metres.
Then, (130 + x)/30 = 25/2.
=> 2(130 + x) = 750
=> x = 245 m.
Question 3 of 40

30 minutes, how many times do they toll together ?
A. 4
B. 10
C. 15
D. 16
Explanation :
L.C.M. of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 is 120.

So, the bells will toll together after every 120 seconds(2 minutes).
In 30 minutes, they will toll together 30/2 + 1 = 16 times.
Question 4 of 40
If a person walks at 14 km/hr instead of 10 km/hr, he would have walked 20 km more. The actual
distance travelled by him is:
A. 50 km
B. 56 km
C. 70 km
D. 80 km
Explanation :
Let the actual distance travelled be x km.

Then, x/10 = (x + 20)/14.
=> 14x = 10x + 200.
=> 4x = 200
=> x = 50 km.
Question 5 of 40
M and N entered into partnership with capitals in the ratio 4 : 5. After 3 months, M withdrew of his
capital and N withdrew 1/5 of his capital. At the end of 10 months, the gain was Rs. 760. What is M's
share in the profit?
A. 310
B. 320
C. 330
D. 350
Explanation :
Ratio of the initial capital of M and N = 4 : 5

Hence we can take the initial capitals of M and N as 4x and 5x respectively.
Ratio in which profit will be divided
=> (4x*3) + (3/4)*(4x)*7 : (5x*3)+ (4/5)*(5x)*7
=> 12+21 : 15+28
=> 33 : 43
Hence, M's share = 760 * 33/76 = 330.
Question 6 of 40
In a test, sixty percent students passed in Maths and 65% in History, 40% passed in both of these
subjects. If 90 students failed in maths and history both, then what is the total number of students?
A. 600
B. 650
C. 700
D. 750
Explanation :
Let the total number of students be x.

Number passed in one or both is given by : n( A U B) = n(A)+n(B) -n( A ^ B).
=> 60% of x + 65% of x - 40% of x.
=> (60/100 * x + 65/100 * x - 40/100 * x)
=> 85x/100 = 17x/20.
Failed in both = (x - 17x/20) = 3x/20.
=> 3x/20 = 90.
=> x = 90*20/3 = 600.
Question 7 of 40
A man can row at 10 km/hr in still water. If the velocity of current is 2 km/hr and it takes him 10 hours to
row to a place and come back, how far is the place ?
A. 36
B. 24
C. 48
D. 56
Explanation :
Speed downstream = (10 + 2) = 12 km/hr

Speed upstream = (10 - 2) = 8 km/hr.
Let the required distance be x km.
Then, x/12 + 1/8 = 10.
=> (2x+3x)/24 = 10.
=> 5x =10*24.
=> x = 48 km.
Question 8 of 40
In a secondary school the seats for Maths, physics and social studies are in the ratio 8 : 5 : 7. there is a
proposal to increase these seats by 75%, 40% and 50% respectively. What will be the new ratio?
A. 5:3:4
B. 4:2:3
C. 10 : 7 : 9
D. 1:3:4
Explanation :
Originally, let the number of seats for Maths, physics and social studies be 8x, 5x and 7x respectively.
No. of increased seats are (175% of 8x), (140% of 5x) and (150% of 7x).
=> (175 * 7x/100), (140 * 5x/100) and (150 * x/100) i.e. 14x, 7x and 21x/2.
.'. Required ratio = 14x : 7x : 21x/2 = 28x : 14x : 21x = 4 : 2 : 3.
Question 9 of 40
Mr Kaushik invested an amount of Rs. 13,900 divided in two different schemes A and B at the simple
interest rate of 14% per annum and 11% per annum respectively. If the total amount of simple interest
earned in 2 years be Rs. 3508, what was the amount invested in Scheme B?
A. Rs. 6400
B. Rs. 6500
C. Rs. 7200
D. Rs. 7500
Explanation :
Let the sum invested in Scheme A be Rs.x and that in Scheme B be Rs. (13900-x).
Then,
=> x * 14 * 2/100 + (13900-x) * 11 * 2)/100 = 3508
=> 28x - 22x = 350800 - (13900 x 22)
=> 6x = 45000
=> x = 7500.
So, sum invested in Scheme B = Rs. (13900-7500) = Rs. 6400.
Question 10 of 40
A and B can together finish a work 30 days. They worked together for 20 days and then B left. After
another 20 days, A finished the remaining work. In how many days A alone can finish the work?
A. 40
B. 50
C. 54
D. 60
Explanation :
A and B together complete the work in 30 days.

So, work done by A and B together in 1 day = 1/30
=> Work done by A and B together in 20 days = 20/30 = 2/3
So work remaining after 20 days when B leaves = 1 - 2/3 = 1/3
Given that A completes the remaining work in 20 days
=> A completes 1/3 work in 20 days
=> A completes the work in 20 * 3 = 60 days.

The assault on the purity of the environment is the price that we pay for many of the benefits of modern
technology. For the advantage of automotive transportation we pay a price in smog-induced diseases;
for the powerful effects of new insecticides, we pay a price in dwindling wildlife and disturbances in the
relation of living things and their surroundings; for nuclear power, we risk the biological hazards of
radiation. By increasing agricultural production with fertilizers, we worsen water population.
The highly developed nations of the world are not only the immediate beneficiaries of the good that
technology can do, that are also the first victims of environmental diseases that technology breeds. In
the past, the environmental effects which accompanied technological progress were restricted to a
small ans relatively short time. the new hazards neither local nor brief. Modern air pollution covers vast
areas of continents: Radioactive fallout from the nuclear explosion is worldwide. Radioactive pollutants
now on the earth surface will be found there for generations, and in case of Carbon-14, for thousands of
years.

Question 1 of 40
Two trains running in opposite directions cross a man standing on the platform in 27 seconds and 17
seconds respectively and they cross each other in 23 seconds. The ratio of their speeds is:
A. 1:3
B. 3:2
C. 3:4
D. None of these
Explanation :
Let the speeds of the two trains be x m/sec and y m/sec respectively.
Then, length of the first train = 27x metres,
and length of the second train = 17y metres.
.'. (27x + 17y)/(x+y) = 23
=> 27x + 17y = 23x + 23y
=> 4x = 6y
=> x/y = 3/2.
Question 2 of 40
The captain of a cricket team of 11 members is 26 years old and the wicket keeper is 3 years older. If the
ages of these two are excluded, the average age of the remaining players is one year less than the
average age of the whole team. Find out the average age of the team.
A. 23 years
B. 20 years
C. 24 years
D. 21 years
Explanation :
Let the average age of of the team = x

=> Sum of ages of all 11 members/11 = x.
=> Sum of ages of all 11 members = 11x
Age of the captain = 26

Age of the wicket keeper = 26 + 3 = 29
Sum of the ages of 9 members of the team excluding captain and wicket keeper
=> 11x - 26 - 29 = 11x - 55.
Average age of 9 members of the team excluding captain and wicket keeper
=> (11x - 55)/9.
Given that,
=> (11x−55)/9 = (x−1).
=> 11x - 55 = 9x - 9.
=> 2x = 46.
=> x = 23.
Question 3 of 40

share?
A. Rs 129
B. Rs 144
C. Rs 156
D. Rs 168
Explanation :
Ratio of initial investments = 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/4 = 6 : 4 : 3

Let their initial investments be 6x, 2x and 3x respectively.
P : Q : R = (6x x 2 + 3x x 10) : (4x x 12) : (3x x 12)
= 42 : 48 : 36 = 7 : 8 : 6.
Q's share = Rs. 378 x 8/21
= Rs. 144.
Question 5 of 40
A motorboat, whose speed in 15 km/hr in still water goes 30 km downstream and comes back in a total
of 4 hours 30 minutes. The speed of the stream (in km/hr) is:
A. 2 kmph
B. 3 kmph
C. 4 kmph
D. 5 kmph
Explanation :
Let the speed of the stream be x km/hr. Then,

Speed downstream = (15 + x) km/hr,
Speed upstream = (15 - x) km/hr
So we know from question that it took 4(1/2)hrs to travel back to same point.
So,30/(15+x) - 30/(15-x) = 41/2.
=> 900/(225-x^2) = 9/2.
=> 9x^2 = 225.
=> x = 5 km/hr.
Question 6 of 40

D. 4/15
Explanation :
Total number of balls = (8 + 7 + 6) = 21.

Let E= event that the ball drawn is neither red nor green= event that the ball drawn is blue.
n(E) = 7.
.'. P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 7/21 = 1/3.
Question 7 of 40
The simple interest on a sum of money is 4/9 of the principal. Find the rate percent and time, if both are
numerically equal.
A. 6 years 2 months
B. 6 years 5 months
C. 6 years 8 months
D. None of these
Explanation :
Let sum = Rs. x Then, S.I. = Rs. 4x/9

Let rate = R% and time = R years.
Then, [x * R * R / 100] = 4x / 9 or R² = 400/9 or R = 20/3 = 6 2/3
Rate = 6 2/3 % and Time = 6 2/3 yrs = 6 yrs 8 months.
Question 8 of 40
X and Y can do a piece of work in 20 days and 12 days respectively. X started the work alone and then
after 4 days Y joined him till the completion of the work. How long did the work last?
A. 6 days
B. 10 days
C. 15 days
D. 20 days
Explanation :
Time taken by X to complete the work = 20 days
Time taken by Y to complete the work = 12 days
Work done by X in a day = 1/20

Work done by Y in a day = 1/12
Work done by X in 4 days = 4 * 1/20 = 1/5

Work remaining after 4 days = 1 - 1/5 = 4/5
Work done by X and Y together in 1 day = 1/20 + 1/12 = 2/15

X and Y together complete 2/15 work in 1 day
=> X and Y together complete the work in 15/2 days
=> X and Y together complete 4/5 work = 15/2 * 4/5 = 6 days
So the work is completed in (4 + 6) = 10 days.
Question 9 of 40

CP of 8 dozen = Rs. (48 x8) = Rs. 384.
CP of 12 dozen =Rs. (960 384) = Rs. 576
Total S.P = Rs. (110/100 x 384 +120/100 x 576) = Rs.1113.60
Profit % = (153.60/960 x 100)% =16%.
Question 10 of 40
The average age of husband, wife and their child 3 years ago was 27 years and that of wife and the child
5 years ago was 20 years. The present age of the husband is:
A. 35 years
B. 40 years
C. 50 years
D. None of these
Explanation :
Sum of the present ages of husband, wife and child = (27 x 3 + 3 x 3) years = 90 years.
Sum of the present ages of wife and child = (20 x 2 + 5 x 2) years = 50 years.
Hence, Husband's present age = (90 - 50) years = 40 years.

Explanation :
Though the Cold War has ended, selective tactics are still continuing for ensuring the military and
economic dominance of developed countries. Various types of technology denial regimes are still being
enforced which are now being mainly targeted against developing countries like India.
Today, we in India encounter twin problems. On one side there is a large-scale strengthening of our
neighbor through supply of arms and clandestine support to their nuclear and missile programes and on
the other side all efforts are being made to weaken our indigenous technology growth through control
regimes and dumping of low-tech systems, accompanied with high commercial pitch in critical areas.
Growth of indigenous technology and self-reliance are the only answer to the problem.Thus in the
environment around India, the number of missiles and nuclear powers are continuously increasing and
destructive weapons continue to pile up around us, in spite of arms reduction treaties.To understand
and the implications of various types of warfare that may affect us, we need to take a quick look at the
evolution of war weaponry and the types of warfare. I am highlighting this point for the reason that in
less than a century we could see change, in the nature of warfare and its effects on society.In early years
of human history it was mostly direct human warfare. During the twentieth century up to about 1990,
the warfare was weapon-driven. The weapons used were guns, tanks, aircraft, ships, submarines and
the nuclear weapons deployed on land/sea/air and also reconnaissance spacecraft. Proliferation of
conventional nuclear and biological weapons was at a peak owing to the competition between the
superpowers.The next phase, in a new form, has just started from 1990 onwards. The world has
graduated into economic warfare. The means used is control of market forces through high technology.
The participating nations, apart from the USA, are Japan, the UK, France, Germany, certain, South-East
Asian countries and a few others. The driving force is the generation of wealth with certain types of
economic doctrine.The urgent issue we need to address collectively as a nation is, how do we handle the
tactics of economic and military dominance in this new form coming from the backdoor? Today
technology is the main driver of economic development at the national level. Therefore, we have to
develop indigenous technologies to enhance our competitive edge and to generate national wealth in all
segments of economy. Therefore, the need of the hour is: arm India with technology.
Question 28 of 40
Which are the issues of great concern that India is facing at present, according to the author of the

Paper-8
Question 1 of 40
A alone can do a piece of work in 6 days and B alone in 8 days. A and B undertook to do it for Rs. 3200.
With the help of C, they completed the work in 3 days. How much is to be paid to C?
A. Rs. 375
B. Rs. 400
C. Rs. 600
D. Rs. 800
Explanation :
C's 1 day's work = 1/3 - (1/6 + 1/8) =1/3 - 7/24 = 1/24.

A's wages : B's wages : C's wages = 1/6 : 1/8 : 1/24 = 4 : 3 : 1.
.'. C's share (for 3 days) = Rs. ( 3 x 1/24 x 3200) = Rs. 400.
Question 2 of 40
A train passes a station platform in 36 seconds and a man standing on the platform in 20 seconds. If the
speed of the train is 54 km/hr, what is the length of the platform?
A. 120 m
B. 240 m
C. 300 m
D. None of these
Explanation :
Speed = (54 x 5/18)m/sec = 15 m/sec.

Length of the train = (15 x 20)m = 300 m.
Let the length of the platform be x metres.
Then, (x + 300)/36 = 15
=> x + 300 = 540.
=> x = 240 m.
Question 3 of 40

A. 3
B. 13
C. 23
D. 33
Explanation :
L.C.M. of 5, 6, 4 and 3 = 60.

On dividing 2497 by 60, the remainder is 37.
Number to be added = (60 - 37) = 23.
Question 4 of 40
In a primary school, 10% of students are below 11 years of age. The number of students above 11 years
of age is 3/4 of the number of students of 11 years of age which is 36. What is the total number of
students in the school?
A. 72
B. 80
C. 70
D. 150
Explanation :
Let the number of students be x.

Then, Number of students above 11 years of age = (100 - 10)% of x = 90% of x.
=> 90% of x = 36 + 3/4 of 36
=> 90x/100 = 63
=> x = 70.
Question 5 of 40
A boat covers a certain distance downstream in 1 hour, while it comes back in 1 and half hours. If the
speed of the stream be 3 kmph, what is the speed of the boat in still water?
A. 12
B. 13
C. 14
D. 15
Explanation :
Let the speed of the boat in still water be x kmph. Then,

Speed downstream = (x + 3) kmph,
Speed upstream = (x - 3) kmph.
=> (x + 3) x 1 = (x - 3) * 3/2.
=> 2x + 6 = 3x - 9
=> x = 15 kmph.
Question 6 of 40
In a simultaneous throw of pair of dice. Find the probability of getting the total more than 7?
A. 6/13
B. 1/2
C. 5/12
D. 7/13
Explanation :
Here cn(S) = (6 x 6) = 36.

Let E = event of getting a total more than 7 =
{(2,6),(3,5),(3,6),(4,4),(4,5),(4,6),(5,3),(5,4),(5,5),(5,6),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6)}
Therefore, P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 15/36 = 5/12.
Question 7 of 40
A sum of money amounts to Rs. 9800 after 5 years and Rs. 12005 after 8 years at the same rate of
simple interest.The rate of interest per annum is:
A. 5%
B. 8%
C. 12%
D. 15%
Explanation :
S.I. for 3 year = Rs.(12005 - 9800) = Rs. 2205.

and, S.I. for 5 year = Rs.(2205/3 5) = Rs. 3675.
Principal = Rs. (9800 - 3675) = Rs. 6125.
Hence, rate = (1003675 / 61255)= 12%.
Question 8 of 40

much is to be paid to Subhash and Dhanush ?
A. Rs. 570, 190
B. Rs. 550, 175
C. Rs. 650, 130

D. Rs. 700, 120
Explanation :
Let A = Prakash, B = Subhash, C = Dhanush.

C's 1 day's work = 1/9 - (1/18 + 1/24) = 1/9 - 7/72 = 1/72.
A's wage : B's wage : C's wage = 1/18 : 1/24 : 1/72 = 4 : 3 : 1.
.'. B's share = 1520 *3/8 = Rs. 570.
Hence, C's share = 1520 * 1/8 = Rs. 190.
Question 9 of 40
A tank is filled in 5 hours by three pipes A, B and C. The pipe C is twice as fast as B and B is twice as fast
as A. How much time will pipe A alone take to fill the tank?
A. 20 hours
B. 25 hours
C. 35 hours
D. None of these
Explanation :
Suppose pipe A alone takes x hours to fill the tank.
Then, pipes B and C will take x/2 and x/4 hours respectively to fill the tank.
.'. 1/x + 2/x + 4/x = 1/5
=> 7/x = 1/5.
=> x = 35 hrs.
Question 10 of 40
The least number which when divided by 5, 6 , 7 and 8 leaves a remainder 3, but when divided by 9
leaves no remainder, is:
A. 1677
B. 1683
C. 2523
D. 3363
Explanation :
L.C.M. of 5, 6, 7, 8 = 840.
Required number is of the form 840k + 3
Least value of k for which (840k + 3) is divisible by 9 is k = 2.
Required number = (840 x 2 + 3) = 1683.

Explanation :
It is unfortunate that the government seems determined to introduce legal provisions to ensure that
children between the ages of 16 and 18 are tried as adults if they commit heinous offences such as
murder and rape. Ever since a juvenile offender was given a ‘light’ sentence in the Delhi gang rape case
of 2012 under the existing child-friendly laws, there has been a clamour to treat juveniles involved in
heinous crimes as adults.
A fresh Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Bill introduced in the Lok Sabha last year
contained clauses that many child rights activists and groups disapproved of. A Standing Committee of
Parliament recommended a review and reconsideration of all clauses that sought to carve out an
exception for children in the 16-18 age group and subject them to the rigours of regular criminal
procedure. However, the amended Bill now cleared by the Cabinet retains the clause that provides that
when a heinous crime is committed by one in this age group, the Juvenile Justice Board will assess
whether the crime has been committed as a ‘child’ or as an ‘adult’. The trial would take place on the
basis of this assessment. The present framework classifies offences as petty, serious and heinous and
treats each category under a different process. The government claims that since this assessment will be
done with the help of psychologists and social experts, the rights of the juvenile would be protected. It
remains to be seen if enough numbers of such professionals would be available across the country to
make this work.
It should not be forgotten that making children face an adult criminal court would mar the prospect of
their rehabilitation. The Supreme Court has not seen any special reason to amend the present juvenile
law. Nor did the Justice J.S. Verma Committee, which made far- reaching recommendations on the legal
framework for treating sexual offences, suggest such changes. The government should stick by the U.N.
Convention on the Rights of the Child, which treats everyone up to 18 as a child. To the government's
credit, it has held some consultations with stakeholders before finalizing its latest draft. It has heeded
the Parliamentary Committee’s objection to Clause 7, and dropped the arbitrary provision that a person
who had committed an offence when aged between 16 and 18 but was apprehended only after crossing
the age of 21 would be treated and tried as an adult. However, this is not enough. The government
would do well to drop its attempt to have a differential system for those involved in ‘heinous offences’.
Instead, it should pursue the other forward-looking aspects of the bill, which has welcome features for
the care and protection of children that can help them significantly through provisions such as those for
foster homes and a better-regulated adoption mechanism.

Question 1 of 40
A can do a certain work in the same time in which B and C together can do it. If A and B together could
do it in 10 days and C alone in 50 days, then B alone could do it in:
A. 15 days
B. 20 days
C. 25 days
D. 30 days
Explanation :
Given, (A + B)'s 1 day's work = 1/10

C's 1 day's work = 1/50
(A + B + C)'s 1 day's work = (1/10 + 1/50 ) = 6/50 = 3/25 --------(i)
A's 1 day's work = (B + C)'s 1 day's work --------(ii)
From (i) and (ii), we get: 2 x (A's 1 day's work) = 3/25.

A's 1 day's work = 3/50.
.'. B's 1 day's work = (1/10 - 3/50) = 2/50 = 1/25.
So, B alone could do the work in 25 days.
Question 2 of 40
Two trains, each 100 m long, moving in opposite directions, cross each other in 8 seconds. If one is
moving twice as fast the other, then the speed of the faster train is:
A. 30 km/hr
B. 45 km/hr
C. 60 km/hr
D. 75 km/hr
Explanation :
Let the speed of the slower train be x m/sec.
Then, speed of the faster train = 2x m/sec.
Relative speed = (x + 2x) m/sec = 3x m/sec.
.'.(100 + 100)/8 = 3x.
=> 24x = 200.
=> x = 25/3.
So, speed of the faster train = 50/3 m/sec

=> (50/3 x 18)km/hr = 60 km/hr.

Explanation :
Let the number of buffaloes be x and the number of ducks be y

=> 4x + 2y = 2 (x + y) + 24.
=> 2x = 24 => x = 12.
Question 5 of 40
Lavish started a business investing Rs 9000. After five months, Rohan joined with a capital of Rs 8000. If
at the end of the year, they earn a profit of Rs. 6970, then what will be the share of Rohan in the profit ?
A. Rs 2380
B. Rs 2300
C. Rs 2280
D. Rs 2260
Explanation :
Now as per question, Lavish invested for 12 months and Rohan invested for 7 months.
So Lavish:Rohan = (9000*12):(8000*7)
=> 108:56
=> 27:14
Rohan Ratio in profit will be
=> (6970**14/41)=Rs 2380.
Question 6 of 40
Arun and Varun appeared at an examination. Arun secured 9 marks more than Varun and his marks was
56% of the sum of their marks. What are the marks obtained by them
A. 42, 33
B. 42, 36
C. 44, 33
D. 44, 36
Explanation :
Let the marks secured by them be x and (x + 9)

Then sum of their marks = x + (x + 9) = 2x + 9
Given that (x + 9) was 56% of the sum of their marks
=>(x+9)=56*(2x+9)/100.
=>(x+9)=14*(2x+9)/25.
=> 25x + 225 = 28x + 126.
=> 3x = 99.
=> x = 33.
Then, (x + 9) = 33 + 9 = 42.
Hence, their marks are 42 and 33 respectively.
Question 7 of 40
A bag contains 21 toys numbered 1 to 21. A toy is drawn and then another toy is drawn without
replacement. Find the probability that both toys will show even numbers.
A. 5/21
B. 9/42
C. 11/42
D. 4/21
Explanation :
The probability that first toy shows the even number = 10/21.
Since, the toy is not replaced there are now 9 even numbered toys and total 20 toys left. So, the
probability that second toy shows the even number,=9/20.
The required probability is :-

=> (10/21)×(9/20).
=> 9/42.
Question 8 of 40
A sum of money amounts to Rs. 9800 after 5 years and Rs. 12005 after 8 years at the same rate of
simple interest. The rate of interest per annum is:
A. 5%
B. 8%
C. 12%
D. 15%
Explanation :
According to the question, SI. for 3 years = Rs. (12005 - 9800) = Rs. 2205.
and, S.I. for 5 years = Rs.((2205/3)*5) = Rs.3675.
.'. Principal = Rs. (9800 - 3675) = Rs. 6125.
Hence, rate = [(100*3675)/(6125*5)]% = 12%.
Question 9 of 40
Amala, Kamala and Vimala can do a piece of work in 11 days, 20 days and 55 days respectively, working
alone. How soon can the work be done if Amala is assisted by Kamala and Vimala on alternate days?
A. 1 day
B. 9 days
C. 8 days
D. 10 days
Explanation :

(Amala+Kamal)'s 1 days Work = (1/11) + (1/20) = 31/220
(Amala+Vimala)S 1 days work = (1/11) + (1/55) = 6/55
Work done in 2 days = (31/220) + (6/55) = 55/220 = 1/4
Now, 1/4 work is done in 2 days.
Therefore, Whole work will be done in (4 x 2) = 8 days.
Question 10 of 40
Ten cards numbered 1 to 10 are placed in a box, mixed up thoroughly and then one card is drawn
randomly. If it is known that the number on the drawn card is more than 3, what is the probability that it
is an even number?
A. 2/7
B. 6/7
C. 7/2
D. 4/7
Explanation :
Let A be the event ‘the number on the card drawn is even’ and B be the event ‘the number on the card
drawn is greater than 3’. We have to find P(A|B).
Now, the sample space of the experiment is S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

Then A = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}, B = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
and A n B = {4, 6, 8, 10}
Also P(A) = 5/2, P(B) = 7/10 and P(A n B) = 4/10.
Then P(A|B) = P(A n B)/P(B) = (4/10)/(7/10) = 4/7.

There is no field of human endeavor that has been so misunderstood as health. While health which
connotes well-being and the absence of illness has a low profile, it is illness representing the failure of
health which virtually monopolizes attention because of the fear of pain, disability and death. Even
Sushruta has warned that this provides the medical practitioner power over the patient which could be
misused.
Till recently, patients had implicit faith in their physician whom they loved and respected, not only for
his knowledge but also in the total belief that practitioners of this noble profession, guided by ethics,
always placed the patient’s interest above all other considerations. This rich interpersonal relationship
between the physician, patient and family has, barring a few exceptions, prevailed till the recent past,
for caring was considered as important as curing. Our indigenous systems of medicine like Ayurveda and
yoga have been more concerned with the promotion of the health of both the body and mind and with
maintaining a harmonious relationship not just with fellow- beings but with nature itself, of which man
is an integral part. Healthy practices like cleanliness, proper diet, exercise and meditation are part of our
culture which sustains people even in the prevailing conditions of poverty in rural India and in the
unhygienic urban slums.
These systems consider disease as an aberration resulting from disturbance of the equilibrium of health,
which must be corrected by gentle restoration of this balance through proper diet, medicines and the
establishment of mental peace. They also teach the graceful acceptance of old age with its infirmities
resulting from the normal degenerative process as well as of death which is inevitable.
This is in marked contrast to the western concept of life as a constant struggle against disease, ageing
and death which must be fought and conquered with the knowledge and technology derived from their
science: a science which, with its narrow dissective and quantifying approach, has provided us the
understanding of the microbial causes of communicable diseases and provided highly effective
technology for their prevention, treatment and control.
This can rightly be claimed as the greatest contribution of western medicine and justifiably termed as
‘high’ technology. And yet the contribution of this science in the field of non-communicable diseases is
remarkably poor despite the far greater inputs in research and treatment for the problems of ageing like
cancer, heart diseases, paralytic strokes and arthritis which are the major problems of affluent societies
today.
Question 28 of 40

Question 1 of 40
A can finish a work in 18 days and B can do the same work in 15 days. B worked for 10 days and left the
job. In how many days, A alone can finish the remaining work?
A. 5
B. 11/2
C. 6
D. 8
Explanation :
B's 10 day's work = ( 1/15 x 10 ) = 2/3 .

Remaining work = ( 1 - 2/3) = 1/3.
Now, 1/18 work is done by A in 1 day.
Therefore, 1/3 work is done by A in ( 18 x 1/3 )= 6 days.
Question 2 of 40

A. 28
B. 32
C. 40
D. 64
Explanation :
Let the numbers be 2x and 3x.

Then, their L.C.M. = 6x.
So, 6x = 48 or x = 8.
The numbers are 16 and 24.
Hence, required sum = (16 + 24) = 40.
Question 3 of 40
In a flight of 600 km, an aircraft was slowed down due to bad weather. Its average speed for the trip was
reduced by 200 km/hr and the time of flight increased by 30 minutes. The duration of the flight is:
A. 1 hour
B. 2 hours
C. 3 hours
D. 4 hours
Explanation :
Let the duration of the flight be x hours.

Then, 600/x - 600/( x + 1/2) = 200.
=> 600/x - 1200/(2x + 1) = 200.
=> x(2x + 1) = 3
=> 2x^2 + x - 3 = 0
=> (2x + 3)(x - 1) = 0
=> x = 1 hr. [neglecting the -ve value of x]
Question 4 of 40
Three partners A, B, C start a business. Twice A’s capital is equal to thrice B’s capital and B’s capital is
four times C’s capital. Out of a total profit of Rs. 16,500 at the end of the year, B’ share is:
A. 2000
B. 4000
C. 5000
D. 6000
Explanation :
Let, the investment of C = a.

Then, B = 4a.
And 2A = 3 x 4a = 12a
or, A = 6a.
=> A : B : C = 6a : 4a : a = 6 : 4 : 1.
So, B’s capital = Rs. [16500 x 4/11] = Rs. 6000.
Question 5 of 40
A boat takes 90 minutes less to travel 36 miles downstream than to travel the same distance upstream.
If the speed of the boat in still water is 10 mph, the speed of the stream is:
A. 2
B. 2.5
C. 3
D. 4
Explanation :
Let the speed of the stream x mph. Then,

Speed downstream = (10 + x) mph,
Speed upstream = (10 - x) mph.\
=> 36/(10 - x) - 36/(10 + x) = 90/ 60
=> 72x x 60 = 90 (100 - x2)
=> x2 + 48x - 100 = 0
=> (x+ 50)(x - 2) = 0
=> x = 2 mph.
Question 6 of 40
In a mixture of 90 litres, the ratio of milk and water is 2 : 1. If this ratio is to be 2 : 3, then the quantity of
water to be further added is :
A. 60 litres
B. 30 litres
C. 90 litres
D. 45 litres
Explanation :
Quantity of milk = 90*2/3 = 60 litres.

Quantity of water in it = (90 - 60) = 30 litres.
New ratio required = 2 : 3.
Let the quantity of water to be added further be x litres.
Then, milk : water = 60/(30+x) = 2 : 3
=> 180 = 60+ 2x
=> x = 60.
.'. Quantity of water to be further added is 60 litres.
Question 7 of 40
A bag contains 5 red and 3 green balls. Another bag contains 4 red and 6 green balls. If one ball is drawn
from each bag. Find the probability that one ball is red and one is green.
A. 19/20
B. 17/20
C. 8/10
D. 21/40
Explanation :
Let A be the event that ball selected from the first bag is red and ball selected from second bag is green.
Let B be the event that ball selected from the first bag is green and ball selected from second bag is red.
=> P(A)=(5/8)×(6/10)
=> 3/8 and
=> P(B)=(3/8)×(4/10)
=> 3/20.
Hence, required probability is:-

=> P(A) + P(B).
=> (3/8) + (3/20).
=> 21/40.
Question 8 of 40
The simple interest on a certain sum of money for 2 1/2 years at 12% per annum is Rs. 40 less than the
simple interest on the same sum for 3 years at 10% per annum. Find the sum.
A. 800
B. 850
C. 900
D. 950
Explanation :
Let the sum be Rs. x

Then, ((x*10*7)/(100*2))-( (x*12*5)/(100*2)) = 40
=> (7x/20)-(3x/10)=40
=> x = (40 * 20) = 800.
Question 9 of 40
Manish, Narendra and Rakesh can do a piece of work in 15, 20, 30 days respectively. Narendra and
Rakesh started the work and after some days Manish joined them. The work was finished in 8 days.
From the beginning when did Manish join them?
A. After 2 days
B. After 3 days
C. After 4 days
D. After 5 days
Explanation :
Narendra and Rakesh worked together for 8 days = 8(1/20 + 1/30) = 8(5/60) = 8/12 = 2/3.
Remaining work = (1 - 2/3) = 1/3.
Work done by Manish in 1 day = 1/15.
1/3 work done by Manish = 1/3/(1/15) = 15(1/3) = 5.

Two trains are moving in opposite directions @ 60 km/hr and 90 km/hr. Their lengths are 1.10 km and
0.9 km respectively. The time taken by the slower train to cross the faster train in seconds is:
A. 36
B. 45
C. 48
D. 49
Explanation :
Relative speed = (60 + 90) km/hr.

= 150 x 5/18 m/sec
= 125/3 m/sec.
Distance covered = (1.10 + 0.9) km = 2 km = 2000 m.
Hence, the required time = 2000 x 3/125 sec = 48 sec.

Explanation :
The devastating impact of the earthquake in Nepal, measuring 7.9 on the Richter scale, could have been
mitigated if there was some preparedness for the tragedy beforehand. More than 3,800 people in that
country and around 40 people in India are reported to have lost their lives while thousands more are
injured. Nepalis were forewarned about the possibility of a major earthquake, as the country was
located on a geological fault line where tectonic plates were constantly on the move below the earth’s
surface. The process was expected to release pent-up energy any time following these intense tectonic
shifts. Expectedly and unfortunately, nature’s unleashed fury has resulted in a colossal tragedy,
especially in the Kathmandu valley, while there is little news about those affected closer to the
epicentre in Lamjung district in the hilly tracts of interior Nepal.
Of the many natural disasters, earthquakes are the most difficult to predict; some experts suggest
that it is even impossible to do so. The best of earthquake warning systems, such as the ones installed in
Japan, are only capable of warning regional centres about the possible impact of ongoing earthquakes.
Yet, there are ways of mitigating disasters — building structures that are relatively quake-resistant,
preparing for evacuation by constructing centres specifically for the purpose, and sensitising the public
about quakes and their devastating impact. Is it such an impossible task to remain prepared, knowing
full well that seismic zones are prone to frequent quakes? Japan, which is a country prone to regular
earthquakes, has shown the way on disaster mitigation and preparedness. Unfortunately, in the
congested urban settings of developing countries these steps are difficult to implement. Now the need
is to help Nepal find its feet in providing relief and rehabilitation to the quake survivors as they brace for
more aftershocks, rain and landslips. In this regard, the alacrity of the Indian government, among others,
in sending aid to Nepal, and the prompt effort in evacuating Indian citizens are commendable. With
governance in Nepal still seemingly a fragile structure given that the Constituent Assembly is yet to
conclude its exercises because of the fractious political process, the centralisation of resources in the
Kathmandu valley has not helped the government. It would have been better off delegating
responsibilities to local government structures, which have been absent for more than a decade in the
country. It will be terribly unfortunate if the lessons of this yet-unfolding tragedy are not properly learnt.
Meanwhile, our hearts go out to the Nepali people. It is imperative that the flow of international aid be
stepped up to help restore the battered Himalayan state.

Question 36 of 40
What will be the output of the following program on GCC compiler?
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
char str[20] = "Hello";

char *const p=str;
*p='M';
printf("%s\n", str);
return 0;
A. Mello
B. hello
C. HMello
D. MHello
Explanation :
Here, 'p' is a constant pointer which can't point to another string but the string can be changed. The
base address of the string 'str' is assigned to 'p'. Thus, '*p' denotes 'value at the address at p" i.e 'H'.
By the expression " *p='M' ", character 'M' is assigned at the place of 'H'. Now, the value of 'str' is
"Mello".

Question 1 of 40
A and B can together finish a work 30 days. They worked together for 20 days and then B left. After
another 20 days, A finished the remaining work. In how many days A alone can finish the work?
A. 40
B. 50
C. 54
D. 60
Explanation :
(A + B)'s 20 day's work = ( 1/30 x 20 ) = 2.
Remaining work =(1 -2/3 )= 1/3.
Now,1/3 work is done by A in 20 days.
Therefore, the whole work will be done by A in (20 x 3) = 60 days.
Question 2 of 40
A student's mark was wrongly entered as 83 instead of 63. Due to that the average marks for the class
got increased by
1/2. What is the number of students in the class?
A. 45
B. 40
C. 35
D. 30
Explanation :
Let the total number of students = x.

The average marks increased by 1/2 due to an increase of 83 - 63 = 20 marks.
But total increase in the marks = 1/2 * x = x/2.

Hence, we can write as
=> x/2 = 20.
=> x = 40.
Question 3 of 40
If the sum of two numbers is 55 and the H.C.F. and L.C.M. of these numbers are 5 and 120 respectively,
then the sum of the reciprocals of the numbers is equal to:
A. 55/601
B. 601/55
C. 11/120
D. 120/11
Explanation :
Let the numbers be a and b.

Then, a + b = 55 and ab = 5 x 120 = 600.
The required sum = 1/a + 1/b = (a + b)/ab = 55/600 = 11/120.
Question 4 of 40
The ratio between the speeds of two trains is 7 : 8. If the second train runs 400 km in 4 hours, then the
speed of the first train is:
A. 70 km/hr
B. 75 km/hr
C. 84 km/hr
D. 87.5 km/hr
Explanation :
Let the speed of two trains be 7x and 8x km/hr.

Then, 8x = (400/4)= 100
=> x = 100/8 = 12.5.
.'. Speed of first train = (7 x 12.5) km/hr = 87.5 km/hr.
Question 5 of 40
A farmer travelled a distance of 61 km in 9 hours. He travelled partly on foot @ 4 km/hr and partly on
bicycle @ 9 km/hr. The distance travelled on foot is:
A. 14 km
B. 15 km
C. 16 km
D. 17 km
Explanation :
Let the distance travelled on foot be x km.

Then, distance travelled on bicycle = (61 -x) km.
So, x/4 + (61 -x)/9 = 9
=> 9x + 4(61 -x) = 9 x 36
=> 5x = 80.
=> x = 16 km.
Question 6 of 40
Ajay and Arman started a shop investing Rs. 9000 and Rs. 12000 respectively. After 6 months, Arman

init?
A. 2000
B. 1900
C. 2600
D. 2300
Explanation :
Ajay : Arman = 9000 * 12 : 12000 * 6 + 6000 * 6 = 1 : 1.

Arman share = Rs. [4600 *(1/2)) = Rs. 2300.
Question 7 of 40
The speed of the boat in still water is 12 kmph. In 3 hours, it can travel downstream 45 kms. Find the
time taken by the boat to cover the same distance uppstream ?
A. 3
B. 4
C. 5
D. 6
Explanation :
Let the speed of the current be x kmph

Speed down stream = distance/time
=> 12 + x = 45 + 3
=> x = 3 kmph
Effective speed up stream = 12 - 3 = 9
=> 9 = 45/x
=> x = 5 hrs.
Question 8 of 40
A sum of Rs. 800 amounts to Rs. 920 in 3 years at simple interest. Interest rate is increased by 3%,it
would amount to how much ?
A. 962
B. 972
C. 982
D. 992
Explanation :
According to the question, S.l. = Rs. (920 - 800) = Rs. 120;

P = Rs. 800, T = 3 yrs.
R = [(100 x 120)/(800*3)]% = 5%.
New rate = (5 + 3)% = 8%.
New S.l. = Rs.(800 * 8 * 3)/100 = Rs. 192.
Therefore, New amount = Rs.(800 + 192) = Rs. 992.
Question 9 of 40
Ajith can finish a work in 36 days, Upendra in 6 days and Chauhan in 8 days. Upendra and Chauhan start
the work but are forced to leave after 2 days. The remaining work was done by Ajith in :
A. 8 days
B. 10 days
C. 12 days
D. 15 days
Explanation :

(Upendra + Chauhan)'s 1 day's work = (1/6 + 1/8) = 7/24.
Work done by Upendra and Chauhan in 2 days =(7*2/24) = 7/12.
Remaining work = (1-7/12) = 5/12.
Now, 1/36 work is done by Ajith in 1 day.
So, 5/12 work is done by Ajith in (36 * 5/12) = 15 days.
Question 10 of 40
Sreenivas sells a table to Shiva at 10% profit and Shiva sells it to Mahesh at 10% loss. At what price did
Sreenivas purchase the table if Mahesh paid Rs. 2178?
A. Rs. 2100
B. Rs. 2150
C. Rs. 2200
D. None of these
Explanation :
Let the cost price of table for Sreenivas be Rs. x and given that, cost price of table for Mahesh = Rs. 2178.
=> (90%) of (110%) of x = Rs. 2178.
=> (90/100)(110/100)x = 2178
=> x = (2178 x 100)/(9 x 11)
=> x = Rs. 2200.

Explanation :
Last week, when nine well-known media houses began publishing directly to Facebook, allowing the
social media giant’s 1.4 billion users to read stories then and there, those in the embattled media
industry would have felt relieved and uneasy at the same time. Relieved, because of what, on the face of
it, seems to be a sweet deal for all the nine publishers that are part of Facebook’s direct publishing
feature, Instant Articles. The New York Times, National Geographic, BuzzFeed, NBC, The Atlantic, The
Guardian, BBC, Spiegel Online, and Bild can sell advertisements on their own and keep all of those
revenues. Alternatively, they can allow Facebook to sell and still keep 70 per cent of the proceeds. For
an industry that is struggling with the aftermath of the digital disruption, this is a welcome revenue-
raising opportunity. According to the Pew Research Center’s State of the News Media 2015 report,
revenues from print advertising fell in 2014 over the previous year while revenues from digital
advertising grew. The catch: the good showing of digital wasn’t even nearly good enough to make up for
print’s shortfall. In the U.S., print advertising dollars fell by nearly a billion while digital dollars just about
managed a growth of 100 million.
Still, it is difficult not to feel uncomfortable about Facebook’s growing clout as a distributor of news. Top
publishers are already on board Instant Articles, and more are itching to follow suit. Their websites could
increasingly become less relevant. As more and more publishers join it, each of them individually will
need Facebook more than it needs them. But avoiding a partnership with Facebook, as some publishers
have suggested they would, isn’t a wise thing to do. As the Pew Research Center’s report put it, nearly
half of those surveyed said they had accessed news on politics and government on Facebook in the
week before. Also, the platform attracts roughly a fourth of the display advertisement revenues and
more than a third of mobile display advertisement revenues. This is in sharp contrast to the experience
of news organisations in garnering digital revenues. Befriending Facebook now is a no-brainer, especially
given that publishing houses long ago ceded control of news distribution to technology firms. They have
only themselves to blame. What they ought to ensure now is not to become too dependent on any one
platform, even as they continue to build their identities both online and offline. Fortunately for the
publishers, the likes of Snapchat, Facebook’s promising rival which has managed to woo the youth, do
seem to give the hope that the publisher-distributor relationship wouldn’t be one-sided.
