Quantitative Techniques & Data Interpretation 1. Option B:Using alligation the ratio of boys : ratio of girls = (69-65.4):(65.4-63) = 3.6:2.4 = 3:2 2. Option A:Total profit is 2140+3500+3000 = 8640/ Profit % = 8640/240000 = 3.6%. 3. Option D:Let the number of students be A and B. (A-20)/(B+20) = 2/3. Similarly (A+20)/(B-20) = 4/1. Solving the two equations we get A = 60 and B = 40. 4. Option C:Harishs saving and expenditure on clothes are the same. So his yearly expenditure on clothes is Rs. 3792. His monthly expenditure on clothes is 3792/12 = Rs. 316. 5. Option D:Multiply the ratio by 30 (LCM of 3,5,6) and we get 10:6:5. 10+6+5=21. So the smallest side = 5/21 x 63 = 15 cms. 6. Option D:Increase in Revenue expenditure = (80-50)/50 = 60%. Increase in Capital Expenditure = (70-30)/30 = 133.33%. So required percentage = (133.33-60)/60 = 122% 7. Option C:One library has 6000. The other can have either 3000 or 12000. In either case it will not exceed 18000 books. So the question can be answered. 8. Option C:Total volume of the three cube = 3^3 + 4^3 + 5^3 = 216. This will form a cube of side 6. Ratio of the surface areas = 6x3^2 + 6x4^2 + 6x5^2 : 6x6^2 = 25:18. 9. Option B:6 machines in 4 min can produce 1080 bottles. 10 machines in 4 min can produce 1080/6 x 10 = 1800 bottles. 10. Option D:Product of the two numbers = HCF x LCM = 6 x 72 = 432. Let the greater number be y. So we get y x y = 432. So y^2 = 144 x 4. So y = 24. 11. Option B:Let the base be 3y. So the other parallel side of the trapezium will be 2/3rd of 3y = 2y. Ratio of the area of triangle and trapezium is x 3y x h / ( x (3y + 2y) x h) = 3/5 = 3:5. 12. Option D:The hands of the clock should meet every 65.4545 mins. But it is meeting every 64 minutes. So in 64 ins it will cover 65.4545 mins. So in a day it will cover = 65.4545 x 24 x 60 / 64 = 1472.72. It will gain 1472.72-1440 = 32.72 = 32 8/11. 13. Option D: If cost price is being reduced by 10%, then the selling price must also be reduced by 10% to keep the profit same. So 10% of SP = 132. So SP = 1320. CP + Profit = SP. CP + 10% of CP = 1320. So CP = 1200. 14. Option A:Let the number be y. 12% of 15% of y = 7.5% of ?% of y. We get ? = 24. 15. Option B:Let cost of washing machine be x and cost of TV be y. From first condition we get 6x + 4y = 98480. From 2nd condition we get 2x + 14y = 98480. Solving simultaneously we get y = 17905.45. 16. Option C 17. Option B:Let the CP be 10. So initially the SP is 120 (as profit is 20%). Selling price is got after 10% discount on marked price. So MP x 0.9 = SP. So MP = 120/0.9 = 133.33. Now if we give 15% discount SP = MP x 0.85 = 120 x 0.85 = 113.33. So profit is 13.33%. 18. Option D:In 11 days A will work for 6 days and B will work for 5 days. So both of them do 50% of the work. So B will be paid half which is 5600 x = Rs. 2800. 19. Option A:2009 has 29.82 inflow out of total inflow of 279.8 during the period which is approximately 10.5%. 20. Option D:LCM of 18, 48 and 64 is 576. Least number which is not a square and divisible by the three numbers is 576x2 = 1152. 21. Option B:The difference in their ages is 6 years. Let their ages be 2y and 5y. So 5y-2y=6. We get y = 2. So their ages 3 years before were 4 and 10. Their ages 3 years hence will be 10 and 16 years. So their average age will be (10+16)/2 = 13 years.

22. Option C:Total ways is (4+3+3)!. Three specific Math book together can be considered as 1 unit. So the 8 units can be arranged in 8! And 3 math book can be arranged in 3! Ways. Probability = 8!x3!/10! = 1/15. 23. Option C:CP for Y = 15000x115/100 + 500 = 17250 + 500 = 17750. Profit = 21000-17750=3250. Profit % 3250/17750 = 18% 24. Option C:The data given in the question are CP and discount %. Using statement I alone we can find the selling price of an article as marked price and discount % is given. With SP and CP we can find the profit %. Statement I alone is sufficient. In statement II as As SP and his profit % are known, we can find As CP. As CP will be Traders SP. As we know Traders SP and CP we can find profit %. 25. Option C:290 is the sum of the 20 consecutive numbers so their average will be 290/20 = 14.5. The average of middle 4 numbers will also be 14.5. So the total of the 4 middle numbers will be 14.5 x 4 = 58. Logical Reasoning 26. Option C:F5H, B1T, P9T 27. Option B:40% read atleast 2 newspapers then 60% read only 1 paper which is 120 students. Out of this 40 read only DNA and 50 read only TOI. So (120-40-50=)30 read only HT. 28. Option A:2x2+2=6. 6x2-2=10. 10x2+2=22. 22x2-2=42. 29. Option A: The scores of the students from highest to lowest is Suma Kavita Sudha Mamta Puja 30. Option D:Birthday is after 16th and before 18th so it is 17th. 31. Option B:Drawing the direction we get that he is 12 m south and 16 m east of his starting position. Using Pythagoras theorem for the right angled triangle we get the distance as 20 m. 32. Option D: None follows 33. Option B: RU, ID, ON 34. Option A: S+1=T; U+2=W; N+3=Q; D+4=H 35. Option B: The four letters are four consecutive letters in the alphabet. 36. Option D: The series is +6^2 , +5^2, +4^2, +3^2, ... 37. Option D: Arrangement is : ACEGIKMOQSUWYZXVTRPNLJHFDB. 17th from the left is T and 6th to the left of T is U. 38. Option D: Q is to the South East of R. 39. Option D: In choice (a) N is father of m: choice (c) n is the father of q: in choice (b) n is mother of m who is the father of q who is the husband of p in this case also n is not grandmother of p 40. Option C: Arrangement clockwise: D-B-C-E-A-H-G-F 41. Option C: READ, DEAR, DARE 42. Option B: Sum of the digits is 8. 43. Option D 44. Option B:None of the conditions are satisfied so the code for each letter is code for the answer. 45. Option A:312/13x2-7+3 = 44. 46. Option A:There are 6 cars behind the first car and 6 cars front of the last car when there are 7 cars. Also there is a car in the middle. 47. Option C 48. Option A:IF 4 marbles are picked by 1st person there are 6 left. Now whatever the 2nd person picks up, 1st person can pick up as many marbles so that only 1 marble is left. So if 2nd picks up 1 marble, 1st will pick up 4 marbles and so on. After this the 2nd person has to pick up 1 remaining marble to lose. 49. Option B:There are two possibilities. Either Q is telling the truth or he is lying. If Q is telling the truth then P belongs to city B and Ps statement is wrong. So P and B belong to the same city i.e. B which contradicts our assumption. Case 2 i.e. Q is from city B satisfies the conditions. 50. Option A:Pick up 1 coin from 1st rack, 2 from 2nd, 3 from third and so on. Now total number of coins is (1+2+3+ ..=) 55. If all the coins are of 10 gm, the total weight would be 550 gm. If the total weight is 549 gm then one 9 gm coin is there and that definitely belongs to rack 1. If it is 548 g then there are two 9 gm coins and they belong to rack 2.
