Wipro Previous Year Papers

and Questions
(Green Marked option denotes the correct
option)
PAPER-1
Question 1
Two students appeared at an examination. One of them secured 9 marks more than
the other 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)=(56/100)(2x+9)
=>(x+9)=(14/25)(2x+9).
=> 25x + 225 = 28x + 126.
=> 3x = 99.
=> x = 33.
Then (x + 9) = 33 + 9 = 42.
Hence, their marks are 33 and 42.
Question 2
A can do a work in 15 days and B in 20 days. If they work on it together for 4 days,
then the fraction of the work that is left is :
A 1/4
.
B 1/10
.
C 7/15
.
D 8/15
.
Explanation :
Work done by A in 1 day = 115 and work done by B in 1 day = 1/20.
Work done by A and B together in 1 day = 1/15 + 1/20 = 7/60.
Work done by A and together in 4 days = 4 * 7/60 = 7/15.
So, fraction of work left after 4 days = 1 - 7/15 = 8/15.
Question 3
Ajay and Arman started a shop investing Rs. 9000 and Rs. 12000 respectively. After
6 months, Arman withdrew half of his investment. If after a year, the total profit was
Rs. 4600, what was Arman’s share in it?
A 2000
.
B 1900
.
C 2600
.
D 2300
.
Explanation :
Ajay : Arman = 9000 * 12 : 12000 * 6 + 6000 * 6 = 1 : 1.
Hence , Arman's share = Rs. [4600 *(1/2)) = Rs. 2300.
Question 4
The cost price of 20 articles is the same as the selling price of x articles. If the profit
is 25%, then the value of x is:
A 15
.
B 16
.
C 18
.
D 25
.
Explanation :
Let the cost price of 1 article be z.
So, the cost price of 20 article = 20z ------------------------- (1)
Selling Price of 20 articles = 20z + 25% of 20z = 25z
=> Selling Price of 1 article = 25z/20 = (5/4)*z
=> Selling Price of x articles = (5/4)*z*x ------------------------- (2)
Given that Selling Price (S.P.) of x articles = Cost Price (C.P.) of 20 articles.
=> (5/4)*z*x = 20z.
=> x = 16.
Question 5
The ratio of the two numbers is 13 : 17 and their H.C.F. is 23, find the numbers.
A 299, 391
.
B 259, 361
.
C 349, 421
.
D 319, 371
.
Explanation :
Assume required numbers be 13x and 17x.
Then there is x, given H.C.F. is 23.
So, the numbers are (13*23 and 17*23)
i.e., 299 and 391.
Question 6
In what ratio must wheat at Rs.3.20 per kg be mixed with wheat at Rs.2.90 per kg
so that the mixture be worth Rs.3.08 per kg?
A 3:4
.
B 1:2
.
C 3:2
.
D 4:3
.
Explanation :
C.P of a unit quantity of 1st kind = Rs. 3.20.
C.P of a unit quantity of 2nd kind = Rs. 2.90.
Mean price = Rs.3.08.
C.P of unit quantity C.P of unit quantity

of 1st kind of 2nd kind
(Rs. 3.20) (Rs. 2.90)
\ /
Mean Price
(Rs.3.08)
/ \
(3.08 – 2.90) : (3.20 – 3.08)
0.18 0.12
Hence, the required ratio = 0.18 : 0.12 = 3 : 2.
Question 7
The average of three numbers is 45 and that of the last two is 50. Find the first
number?
A 32
.
B 33
.
C 35
.
D 36
.
Explanation :
Assume three numbers be a, b, c.
Given, (a + b + c) / 3 = 45. ------------> (1)
And, ( b + c ) / 2 = 50.
=> b + c = 100.
Substitute (b + c) in (1) then
=> (a + 100) / 3 = 45.
=> a = 135 - 100 = 35.

Hence, First number is 35.
Question 8
In a bag, there are 5 green, 6 black and 7 red pens. One pen is picked up randomly.
What is the probability that it is neither red nor green?
A 5/18
.
B 7/18
.
C 1/3
.
D 1/2
.
Explanation :
Neither red nor green means the pen drawn is black.
Total number of outcomes = (5+6+7) = 18.
Number of Favorable outcomes = 6 = Number of black pens.
Hence, Probability of the event = 6/18 = 1/3.

Paragraph/Instructions
At this stage of civilisation, when many nations are brought in to close and vital
contact for good and evil, it is essential, as never before, that their gross ignorance
of one another should be diminished, that they should begin to understand a little of
one another's historical experience and resulting mentality. It is the fault of the
English to expect the people of other countries to react as they do, to political and
international situations. Our genuine goodwill and good intentions are often brought
to nothing, because we expect other people to be like us. This would be corrected if
we knew the history, not necessarily in detail but in broad outlines, of the social and
political conditions which have given to each nation its present character.

A LogicGuns10
.
B LogicGunsLogicGuns
.
C LogicGuns9
.
D LogicGuns1
.
Explanation :
printf() function returns the number of characters successfully printed on the
screen. The string "LogicGuns" has 9 characters, so first printf print LogicGuns and
then returns 9.

Question 31
What will be the output of the following program on GCC compiler?
#include <stdio.h>
int fun(int);
int i;
int main(){
int j;
for(;;){
if(j=fun(i)){
printf("j=%d\n",j);
}
else{
break;
}
}
return 0;
}
int fun(int x){
static int a=2;
a--;
return (a-x);
}
A j=1
.
B j=0
.
C j=2
.
D Compiler Error
.
Explanation :
Here, 'i' is a global variable having default value 0.
In the for loop, in the 'if' condition, fun() is called with i=0 that gets stored in
variable 'x'. In the function, static variable 'a' is initialized to 2 and gets
decremented and the value of a-x i.e 1 is returned and gets stored in j of the
main().
Here, the condition of 'if' evaluates to true as 1 is a truth value and printf() prints
the value of j i.e 1.
Since, all the sections of the loop is empty, control again comes inside the loop
and fun() is called with i=0. In the function, static variable 'a' will not be reinitialized
i.e it retains it's previous value i.e 1 and gets decremented to 0 and the value of a-
x i.e 0 is returned and gets stored in j of the main().
Now, the condition of 'if' has value 0 that evaluates to false and control goes
to else block where 'break' will take control out of the loop and execution is
terminated.
Question 32

#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
char arr[] = "logicguns";
char *str = arr;
++*str;
printf(" %c", *str);
return 0;
}
A l
.
B m
.
C o
.
D p
.
Explanation :
Operator precedence of prefix ++ and * are same and associativity is right to left.
So the expression ++*str is equivalent ++(*str). *str will give 'l' and ++ will
produce m.
PAPER-2
Question 1
A, B and C can do a piece of work in 20, 30 and 60 days respectively. In how many
days can A do the work if he is assisted by B and C on every third day?
A 12 days
.
B 15 days
.
C 16 days
.
D 18 days
.
Explanation :
A's 2 day's work = (1/20) x 2 = 1/10.
(A + B + C)'s 1 day's work = 1/20 + 1/30 + 1/60 = 6/60 = 1/10 .
Work done in 3 days = 1/10 + 1/10 = 1/5 .
Now, 1 work is done in 3/5 days.
Hence, Whole work will be done in (3 x 5) = 15 days.
Question 2
A vendor bought toffees at 6 for a rupee. How many for a rupee must he sell to gain
20%?
A 3
.
B 4
.
C 5
.
D 6
.
Explanation :
C.P. of 6 toffees = Re. 1.
S.P. of 6 toffees = 120% of Re. 1 = Rs. 6/5.
For Rs. 6/5 , toffees sold = 6.
For Re. 1, toffees sold = 6 x 5/6 = 5.
Question 3
Six years ago, the ratio of the ages of Kunal and Sagar was 6 : 5. Four years hence,
the ratio of their ages will be 11 : 10. What is Sagar's age at present?
A 16 yrs
.
B 18 yrs
.
C 20 yrs
.
D Cannot be determined
.
E None of these
.
Explanation :
Let the ages of Kunal and Sagar 6 years ago be 6x and 5x years respectively.
Then,[ (6x + 6) + 4 ] / [(5x + 6) + 4 ] = 11/10.

=> 10(6x + 10) = 11(5x + 10)
=> 5x = 10.
=> x = 2.
Hence, Sagar's present age = (5x + 6) = 16 years.
Question 4
In covering a distance of 30 km, Abhay takes 2 hours more than Sameer. If Abhay
doubles his speed, then he would take 1 hour less than Sameer. Abhay's speed is:
A 5 kmph
.
B 6 kmph
.
C 6.25 kmph
.
D 7.5 kmph
.
Explanation :
Let Abhay's speed be x km/hr.
Then, 30/x - 30/2x = 3.
=> 6x = 30.
=> x = 5 km/hr.
Question 5
Arun, Kamal and Vinay invested Rs. 8000, Rs. 4000 and Rs. 8000 respectively in a
business. Arun left after six months. If after eight months, there was a gain of Rs.
4005, then what will be the share of Kamal?
A Rs 890
.
B Rs 1335
.
C Rs 1602
.
D Rs 1780
.
Explanation :
Arun : Kamal : Vinay = (8,000 x 6) : (4,000 x 8) : (8,000 x 8).
= 48 : 32 : 64.
= 3 : 2 : 4.
Hence, Kamal's share = Rs. 4005 x (2/9) = Rs. 890.
Question 6
Two numbers A and B are such that the sum of 5% of A and 4% of B is two-third of
the sum of 6% of A and 8% of B. Find the ratio of A : B.
A 2:3
.
B 1:1
.
C 3:4
.
D 4:3
.
Explanation :
Given,
5% of A + 4% of B = (2/3) [6% of A + 8% of B].
=> 5A/100 + 4 B/100 = (2/3) [ 6A/100 + 8B/100 ].
=> (1/20)A + (1/25)B = (1/25)A + (4/75)B.
=> [1/20 - 1/25] A = [ 4/75 - 1/25 ]B.
=> (1/100)A = (1/75)B.
=> A/B = 100/75 = 4/3.
Hence, the required ratio = 4 : 3.
Question 7
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 4
.
B 5
.
C 6
.
D 10
.
Explanation :
Let the speed of the stream be x km/hr. Then,
Speed downstream = (15 + x) km/hr,
Speed upstream = (15 - x) km/hr.
=> 30/(15 + x) + 30/(15 - x) = 9/2.
=> 900/ (225-x2) = 9/2.
=> 9x2 = 225.
=> x2 = 25.
=> x = 5 km/hr.
Question 8
Three unbiased coins are tossed. What is the probability of getting at most two
heads?
A 3/4
.
B 1/4
.
C 3/8
.
D 7/8
.
Explanation :
Here S = { TTT, TTH, THT, HTT, THH, HTH, HHT, HHH }
Let E = event of getting at most two heads.
Then E = { TTT, TTH, THT, HTT, THH, HTH, HHT }.

Hence, the required probability i.e P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 7/8.
Question 9
Blood Relation:-
A's son B is married with C whose sister D is married to E the brother of B. How D is
related to A?
A Sister
.
B Daughter-in-law
.
C Sister-in-law
.
D Cousin
.
Explanation :
Since E is the brother of B
Therefore, A is the father of E
but D is the wife of E.
Hence, D is the daughter-in-law of A.

.
.

.

.
Explanation :
From I, we have: R>Q, R>T, S>R i.e. S>R>Q>T or S>R>T>Q.
From II, S is not the heaviest.
So, P is the heaviest.
Thus, we have: P > S > R > Q > T or P > S > R > T > Q.
Hence, either T or Q is the lightest.

Now the question arises, what is the secret of the longevity and imperishability of
Indian culture? Why is it that such great empires and nations is Babylion, Assyria,
Greece, Rome and Persia, could not last more than the footprints of a camel m the
shifting sands of the desert, while India which faced the same ups and downs, the
same mighty and cruel hand of time, is still alive and with the same halo of glory
and splendour ? The answer is given by Prof. J. B. Pratt of America. According to him
Hindu religion is the only religion in the world which is 'self-perpetuating and self-
renewing.' Unlike other religions 'not death, but development' has been the fate of
Hinduism.
Not only Hindu religion but the whole culture of the Hindus has been growing
changing and developing in accordance with the needs of time and circumstance
without losing its essential and imperishable spirit. The culture of the vedic ages, of
the ages of the Upanishads, the philosophical systems, the Mahabharata, the
Smirities, the Puranas, the commentators, the medieval âints and of the age of
the modern reformers is the same in Spirit and yet very different in form. Its basic
principles are so broad based that they can be adapted to almost any environment
of development.

Explanation :
Question 28
In the following program where is the variable 'a' getting defined and where it is
getting declared?
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
extern int a;
printf("%d\n", a);
return 0;
}
int a=20;
A 'int a = 20' is a declaration, 'extern int a' is the definition.

.
B 'int a = 20' is a definition, but 'a' is not defined

.
C extern int a' is a declaration, 'int a = 20' is the definition.

.
D None of the above.

.
Explanation :
At the declaration of a variable, we only specify the datatype of the variable and
during definition, the variable is initialized with the value of that data type.
Question 29
What will be the output of the program on GCC compiler?
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
int a = 500, b = 100, c;
if(!a >= 400)
b = 300;
c = 200;
printf("b = %d c = %d\n", b, c);
return 0;
}
A b = 300 c = 200
.
B b = 100 c = garbage
.
C b = 300 c = garbage
.
D b = 100 c = 200
.
Explanation :
In the above program, a=5 is a truth value and in the 'if' condition, '!a' negates
truth value 'a' and makes it0. It is then compared with 400 which evaluates
to false thus, control goes to the line "c=200" and printf() prints values of b = 100
and c = 200.
Question 30
What will be the output of following program?
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
class base {
int arr[10];
};
class b1: public base { };
class b2: public base { };
class derived: public b1, public b2 { };
int main(void) {
cout << sizeof(derived);
return 0;
}
A 0
.
B 4
.
C 40
.
D 80
.
Explanation :
derived is inherited from both b1 and b2, so two copies of class base will be there in
derived class. So sizeof derived will be 80.
Question 31
If you are using C language to implement the heterogeneous linked list, what
pointer type will you use?
A Ordinary Pointer
.
B Void Pointer
.
C Dangling Pointer
.
D Integer Pointer
.
Explanation :
The heterogeneous linked list contains different data types in its nodes and we need
a link,i.e., a pointer to connect them. It is not possible to use ordinary pointers for
this. So we go for void pointer.
Void pointer is capable of storing pointer to any type as it is a generic pointer type.
Question 32

Explanation :
Question 34
Given two sorted lists of size m and n respectively.The number of comparisons
needed in the worst case by the merge sort algorithm will be?
A mn
.
B max(m,n)
.
C min(m,n)
.
D m+n-1
.
Explanation :
Question 35
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 quick sort)
perform poorly, and others (such as Heap sort) completely impossible.
Since worst case time complexity of Merge Sort is O(nLogn) and Insertion sort is
O(n^2), merge sort is preferred.
PAPER-3
Question 1
Grass in lawn grows equally thickand in a uniform rate. It akes 24 days for 70 cows
and 60 for 30 cows . How many cows can eat away the same in 96 days?
A 18
.
B 20
.
C 21
.
D 19
.
Explanation :
Let g = grass initially, r = rate at which grass grow/day and c= cow eat grass/day.
=> g + 24r = 70 * 24c = 1680c -----------(i)
and,
=> g + 60r = 60 * 30c = 1800c
=> g = 1800c - 60r -----------(ii)
By solving these equations, we have c = (3/10)r -------------(iii)
=> g + 96r = 96nc.
=> 96nc = 1800c - 60r + 96r = 1800c + 36r=1800c+120c=1920c
=>n=20.
Question 2
After striking the floor , a rubber ball rebounds to 4/5th of the height from which it
has fallen. Find the total distance that it travels before coming to rest if it has been
gently dropped from a height of 120 m.
A 540m.
.
B 960m.
.
C 1080m.
.
D 1020m
.
Explanation :
After the drop, it travels down for h meters and rebounds back to 4h/5 and travels
down 4h/5 and rebounds back 4/5(4h/5) etc.
The total distance it travels = h + 4h/5+ 4h/5+ 4/5(4h/5)+ 4/5(4h/5) +
4/5*4/5(4h/5)+...
S= h + 2*4h/5 + 2(4/5)(4h/5) + ....
= h + 2{4h/5 + 4/5(4h/5) + ....}
= h + 2(Sum of infinite GP with initial term 4h/5 and common ratio 4/5)
Formula: Sum of Infinite GP with initial term ‘a’ and common ratio ‘r’ is a/(1-r)
S = h + 2{(4h/5)/(1-4/5)}
= h + 8h = 9h = 9*120 = 1080.
Question 3
A father's age was 5 times his son's age 5 years ago and will be 3 times son's age
after 2 years, the ratio of their present ages is equal to:
option
A 3:7
.
B 5:11
.
C 10:3
.
D 10:7
.
Explanation :
Let the ages of father nad son be x and y.
Then,
=> x-5 = 5(9y-5).
=> x+2 = 3(y+2).
On solving we get, x/y=10/3.
Question 4
The average of 7 numbers is 50. The average of first three of them is 40, while the
average of the last three is 60. What must be the remaining number?
A 60
.
B 50
.
C 45
.
D 55
.
Explanation :
Consider a,b,c,d,e,f,g are the seven numbers.
Given, (a+b+c+d+e+f+g)/7= 50 ---------(i)
(a+b+c)/3=40 which means a+b+c=120, and (e+f+g)/3=60 which means
e+f+g=180.
Using both the values in eq(i), we get 120+d+180=(50*7)
=> d + 300 = 350 which implies d=50.
Question 5
A 10-litre mixture of milk and water contains 30 percent water. Two litres of this
mixture is taken away.
How many litres of water should now be added so that the amount of milk in the
mixture is double that of water?
A 1.4
.
B 0.8
.
C 0.4
.
D 0.7
.
Explanation :
In case of a mixture,for any amount of the sample will contain the ingredients in the
same proportion.So even if 2 L is taken away,the remaining 8 L will have 30% water
and 70% milk.
Amount of water = 30*8/100 = 2.4L
Amount of milk = 8-2.4 =5.6L
For the mixture to have the amount of water double the amount of milk,
by changing only the amount of water,it shoul d contain 5.6/2 = 2.8L of water.
Therefore,the amount of water to be added = 2.8 - 2.4 = 0.4L.
Question 6
The minimum number of digits required to form every number which is greater than
900 and less than 9,000 is:-
A 39
.
B 72
.
C 49
.
D 81
.
Explanation :
We have to find the minimum number of numbers required to form every number
from 900 to 9,000.
Unit place of a number from 900 to 9,000 can be formed using 0 to 9 digits. i.e., 10
digits.
10's place of a number from 900 to 9,000 can be formed using 0 to 9 digits. i.e., 10
digits.
digits.
digits.
Therefore, total number of numbers required is 10 + 10 + 10 + 9 = 39.
Question 7
When not moving on the sidewalk, Maya can walk the length of the sidewalk in 7
minutes. If she stands on the sidewalk as it moves, she can travel the length in 4
minutes. If Maya walks on the sidewalk as it moves, how many minutes will it take
her to travel the same distance? Assume she always walks at the same speed, and
express your answer as a decimal to the nearest tenth.
A 3.6
.
B 2.5
.
C 3.8
.
D 2.8
.
Explanation :
Assume distance of sidewalk "x"
speed1 (moving on sidewalk)
speed2 (moving off sidewalk)
since both the movements are in same direction, we can do speed1 + speed 2
speed1 = x/4
speed2 = x/7
speed1 + speed2 = 11x/28 = 0.39286x
now new time while moving on sidewalk = x/0.39286x = 2.54544
hence, the answer is 2.5.
Question 8

how many ways can he do this if each child must get at least 1 painting and all
paintings are different ?
A 48
.
B 18
.
C 36
.
D 72
.
Explanation :
First child could get 1 out of 4 paintings: 4
Second can get 1 out of remaining 3: 3
Third will get 1 out of remaining 2: 2
Now the last painting could be given to any of the three child in 3 diff ways:
Thus, total number of ways: (4 * 3 * 2) * 3 i.e 72.

Question 10
Find the nest number of the series:
4,18,100,350 ,?
A 765
.
B 860
.
C 868
.
D 800
.
Explanation :
Difference of 4,18 100,350 is :- 14,82,250
difference of 14,82,250 is 68,168.
Since it is increasing by 100.therefore, next in series will be 268.
Therefore, next in the second series will be 250+268=518.
So, next in the first series will be 350+518=868.
Question 11
q1.What is value of 'a' if 'a' is an integer?
(1)a^4 = 1

A (1) alone is sufficient

.
B (2) alone is sufficient

.
C (1) and (2) both are required.
.
D Neither of the staatement is sufficient

.
Explanation :
From 2nd equation,
=> a^3+1=0
=> a^3=-1.
If a^3 is -1 then a must be -1(-1)^3=-1 .
And it also satisfies equation 1.
So,a=-1.

Explanation :
A Close look at the facts relating to political interference in administration shows
that it is not a one-way process. There is often a nexus between power hungry and
corrupt politicians and civil servants with convenient principles. Many civil servants
are only too anxious to oblige the politicians, and then cash the obligation when
they need some special favor. So the attitude of self-righteousness adopted by the
civil service is sometimes only a way of covering their own flaws by blaming others.
Every now and then some retired civil servants come out with his memoirs, painting
a glorious picture of the heights of administrative efficiency reached during his
reign. There is often the suggestion that had there not been so much political
interference, things would have been even more fantastic. It is not unusual for the
self styled hero to blame not only interfering politicians but also fellow civil servants
who are idiots or crooks, for his failures. This attitude of smug self-satisfaction is,
unfortunately, developed during the years of service. Self preservation rather than
service is encouraged by our whole system of rules and procedures.
The remedy has to be drastic and quickly effective. The over protection now
granted to civil servants must end. Today to remove an erring civil servant is just
not possible. And the only thing that the highest authority in the Government, both
in the State and at the Center, can do is to transfer an official from one job to
another. The rules for taking disciplinary action are so complicated that, in the end,
the defaulting civil servants gets away, and gets his full emoluments even for the
period of the disciplinary proceedings, thus making it a paid holiday for him.
The result is that the administration has become rule-oriented and not result-
oriented. Action is possible against the official who takes some interest in his work,
but no action is ever taken against a person who does not deliver the goods. If the
country is to adopt a result-oriented approach, it is necessary to link job
performance with job retention.

A & B working separately can do a piece of work in 9 & 12 days respectively. If they
work for a day alternatively, A beginning, in how many days, the work will be
completed?
A 41/4
.
B 41/2
.
C 27/2
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
(A+B)'s 2 days work = (1/9 + 1/12)= 7/36
(A+B)'s 10 days work = 10/2 *7/36 = 35/36
remaining work (1- 35/36 = 1/36) has to be done by A on 11th day,
its done by A in 9* 1/36 = 1/4 day
total time = 10 +1/4 = 41/4 days.

will be half her mother's age . How old will she be when she is half her mother's age
?
A 18
.
B 20
.
C 22
.
D 28
.
Explanation :
Let M be Mother,P be pallavi;before 10yrs.
Let age of M,p is x,5x respectively.
After 10yrs 3/7(5x+10),x+10;solving those two eq's we get x=5;
After 5 yrs M age is 5x+10+5=(5*5+10+5)=40;
Given pallavi age is half of her mother age i.e., 40/2=20.
Question 4
The average age of a class of 39 students is 15 years. If the age of the teacher be
included, then the average increases by3 months. Find the age of the teacher.
A 18 years
.
B 25 years
.
C 20 years
.
D 15 years
.
Explanation :
Average of 39 student = 15 yrs
Total age of 39 students=39*15= 585 yrs
Avg age of 39 students + teacher =15+3/12=15.25 yrs
so the total age of (39 student+1 teacher) or 40 persons=
40*15.25=610 yrs
so age of teacher=610-585=25 years.

Suppose x kg of pure copper is melted with 10kg of Ist alloy and 16 kg of 2nd alloy ,
then
Pure cooper in new alloy = 10*4/5 + 16*1/4 +x = 12+x kg
Pure tin in new alloy = 10*1/5+ 16*3/4 = 14 kg
As per given condition
=>(12+x)/14 = 3/2
=> 24+2x= 42
=> x=9 kg.
Total weight of new alloy = 10+16+9=35 kg.
Question 6
Find the largest 4-digit number, which gives the remainder 7 and 13 when divided
by 11 and 17?
A 9900
.
B 9907
.
C 9807
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
LCM of 11 and 17 is 187.
when divided by 11 remainder 7,so difference 4.
when devided by 17 remainder 13,so difference 4.
Largest no exactly devide by 11 & 17=9911(because 9999/187=quotient 53 and
remainder 88,, So 9999-88=9911)
Hence, the no's is 9911-4 = 9907.
Question 7
Maria drove to the mountains last weekend. There was heavy traffic on the way
there, and the trip took 9 hours. When Maria drove home, there was no traffic and
the trip only took 4 hours. If her average rate was 40 miles per hour faster on the
trip home, how far away does Maria live from the mountains?
A 288 miles
.
B 280 miles
.
C 175 miles
.
D 170 miles
.
Explanation :
Time taken for trip from home to mountains=9h
Time taken for trip from mountains to home=4h
Let distance from home to mountains=x miles
let average speed from home to mountains=y miles/h
Given avg speed on the trip home is 40m/h faster than speed from home to
mountains=y+40 m/h
=> (x/9)=y and (x/4)=y+40
by solving this, we get y=32 m/h and the distance x=32*9=288 miles.
Question 8
A drawer holds 4 red hats. what is the probability of getting exactly 3 red or exactly
3 blue hats when taking out 4 hats randomly out of the drawer and immediately
returning every hat to the drawer before taking out the next?
A 1/4
.
B 3/8
.
C 1/2
.
D 1/8
.
Explanation :
Probablity of taking out a particular color hat = 4/8 = 1/2
P(BBBR) = (1/2)^4
P(BBRB) = (1/2)^4
P(BRBB) = (1/2)^4
P(RBBB) = (1/2)^4
Total = 4 * (1/2)^4
Similary for (RRRB) = 4 * (1/2)^4
Hence, the required answer is 8 * (1/2) ^4 = 1/2.

Explanation :
It is a strange that, according to his position in life, an extravagant man is admired
or despised. A successful businessman does nothing to increase his popularity by
being careful with his money. He is expected to display his success, to have smart
car, an expensive life, and to be lavish with his hospitality. If he is not so, he is
considered mean and his reputation in business may even suffer in consequence.
The paradox remains that if he had not been careful with his money in the first
place, he would never have achieved his present wealth. Among the two income
groups, a different set of values exists. The young clerk who makes his wife a
present of a new dress when he hadn't paid his house rent, is condemned
as extravagant. Carefulness with money to the point of meanness is applauded as a
virtue. Nothing in his life is considered more worthy than paying his bills. The ideal
wife for such a man separates her housekeeping money into joyless little piles- so
much for rent, for food, for the children’s shoes; she is able to face the milkman
with equanimity and never knows the guilt of buying something she can’t really
afford. As for myself, I fall into neither of these categories. If I have money to spare,
I can be extravagant, but when, as is usually the case, I am hard up, then I am the
meanest man imaginable.
Question 31

A worm is at the bottom of a forty foot hole. It can crawl upwards at the rate of four
feet in one day, but at night, it slips back three feet. At this rate, how long will it
take the worm to crawl out of the hole?
A 29 days
.
B 37 days
.
C 35 days
.
D 39 days
.
Explanation :
For each day worm climb only 1 (4-3)foot. After 36 days, worm reaches the 37 foot.
So, exactly the 37th day worm reaches 40 foot.
Question 2
If a,b,c be in GP and p,q be respectively AM between a,b and b,c then
A 2/b=1/p+1/q
.
B 2/b=1/p-1/q
.
C 2=a/p-c/q
.
D None of the above

.
Explanation :
p=(a+b)/2; q=(b+c)/2
=> 1/p+1/q = 2*((1/(a+b))+(1/(b+c))
=> 2*(a+2b+c)/(a+b)(b+c)
=> 2*(a+2ar+a(r^2))/(a+ar)(ar+a(r^2)) because b=ar; c= a(r^2).
where r = common ratio.
On Solving, we get
=> 1/p + 1/q = 2/ar = 2/b.
Question 3
Three years ago, the average age of A, B and C was 27 years and that of B and C, 5
years ago was 20 years. A's present age is :
A 30 yrs
.
B 35 yrs
.
C 40 yrs
.
D 48 yrs
.
Explanation :
Let present ages of A, B and C be a,b,c respectively.
Before three years their ages were a-3,b-3,c-3 respectively.
Given,
=> (a-3+b-3+c-3)/3 = 27.
=> a+b+c=90.
Then (B-5+C-5)/2=20.
=> b+c=50.
=> a=90-(b+c).
=> a=90-50.
=> a=40.
Question 4
Gavaskar average in first 50 innings was 50 . after the 51st innings his average was
51. How many runs he made in the 51st innings?
A 90 runs
.
B 101 runs
.
C 100 runs
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
Gavaskar got 50 in 50 innings so, total score = 2500 runs.
now at 51st inining, average is, (2500+x)/51 = 51 ( since the average of 51
matches becomes 51 after the 51st match).
So now x = 2601-2500 = 101 runs.
Question 5
Thirty litres of water is added to 150 litres of 20% solution of alcohol in water.the
resulting strenght of alcohol is
A 16.67%.
.
B 17.2%.
.
C 18.3%.
.
D none
.
Explanation :
20% solution of alcohol in water means 30 litres of alcohol & 120 litres of water.
Then 30 litres of water is added, so the solution now contains 150 litres of water
and 30 litres of alcohol.
Therefore, the resulting strength of alcohol is 30*100/180=16.67%.
Question 6
Find the difference of minimum number of number required to form every number
from 1 to 1234 and 1 to 4321.
A 9
.
B 7
.
C 4
.
D 3
.
Explanation :
In 1234,
Unit place 1 to 1234 can be formed using 0 to 9 digits. i.e., 10 digits.
10's can be formed using 0 to 9 digits. i.e., 10 digits.
1000's can be formed using only one digit, 1. i.e., 1 digit.
total no of numbers required is 10 + 10 + 10 + 1 = 31.
In 4321, it is 10 + 10 + 10 + 4 = 34.
Hence, 34-31=3.
Question 7
A man can row a distance of 5 km in 60 min with the help of the tide. The direction
of the tide reverses with the same speed. Now he travels a further 20 km in 10
hours. How much time he would have saved if the direction of tide has not
changed?
A 5 hrs
.
B 4 hrs
.
C 12 hrs
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
Dist=speed*time.
=> 5=(u+v)*1hr
=> 20=(u-v)*10
By solving,
u=7/2
v=3/2
Therfore,
=> 20=(u+v)*t
=> 20=(3/2 + 7/2)*t
=> t=4hr
Hence, the time saved=6 hr.
Question 8
A coin will be flipped five times. If the results are either 0, 1, 4, or 5 heads, you will

mathematical expectation?
A 0.625 paisa
.
B 0.725 paisa
.
C 0.825 paisa
.
D 0.925 paisa
.
Explanation :
4*10*(1/2)^5+2*(-5)*(1/2)^5
(1/2) is probability of getting no of heads.
Therefore calculating above gives 0.825 paisa.
Question 9

.
C G is younger to B.
.
D A is younger to D.
.
Explanation :
From the given information it can be said
B & M has 3 children( 2 Sons D & A, and daughter G).
Definitely G is younger to B as she is daughter of G.
But it cann't be said who is younger among children A,D & G.

1,3,7,13,21,31,.....
A 43
.
B 33
.
C 41
.
D 45
.
Explanation :
1+2 = 3
3+4 = 7
7+6 = 13.
An = A(n-1) + 2*(n-1) (for n>1)
Therefore A7 = A6 + 2*6 = 31 + 12 = 43.

answer, which of the following informations given in statements (P) and (Q) is/are
sufficient ? P : Arun had Rs. 4000 with him. Q : The difference between the amounts
of Gopal and Dinesh was Rs. 500.
A Only Q is sufficient
.
B Only P is sufficient
.
C Either P or Q is sufficient
.
D Both P and Q together are needed

.
Explanation :
Only Q is sufficient as P states dat arun had 4000rs bt it is not given how uch part
out of dis he gave to gopal
But from diff btween gopal n dinesh amt is 500
So, G-D=500
As given 40% of gopal is given to dinesh
So, D=0.4G
=> G-0.4G=500
=> G=833.33
=> D=533.33.

B 37 days
.
C 35 days
.
D 39 days
.
Explanation :
For each day worm climb only 1 (4-3)foot. After 36 days, worm reaches the 37 foot.
So, exactly the 37th day worm reaches 40 foot.

=> 2*(a+2b+c)/(a+b)(b+c)
=> 2*(a+2ar+a(r^2))/(a+ar)(ar+a(r^2)) because b=ar; c= a(r^2).
where r = common ratio.
On Solving, we get
=> 1/p + 1/q = 2/ar = 2/b.

Explanation :
Let present ages of A, B and C be a,b,c respectively.
Before three years their ages were a-3,b-3,c-3 respectively.
Given,
=> (a-3+b-3+c-3)/3 = 27.
=> a+b+c=90.
Then (B-5+C-5)/2=20.
=> b+c=50.
=> a=90-(b+c).
=> a=90-50.
=> a=40.
Question 4
Gavaskar average in first 50 innings was 50 . after the 51st innings his average was
51. How many runs he made in the 51st innings?
A 90 runs
.
B 101 runs
.
C 100 runs
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
Gavaskar got 50 in 50 innings so, total score = 2500 runs.
now at 51st inining, average is, (2500+x)/51 = 51 ( since the average of 51
matches becomes 51 after the 51st match).
So now x = 2601-2500 = 101 runs.
Question 5
Thirty litres of water is added to 150 litres of 20% solution of alcohol in water.the
resulting strenght of alcohol is
A 16.67%.
.
B 17.2%.
.
C 18.3%.
.
D none
.
Explanation :
20% solution of alcohol in water means 30 litres of alcohol & 120 litres of water.
Then 30 litres of water is added, so the solution now contains 150 litres of water
and 30 litres of alcohol.
Therefore, the resulting strength of alcohol is 30*100/180=16.67%.
Question 6
Find the difference of minimum number of number required to form every number
from 1 to 1234 and 1 to 4321.
A 9
.
B 7
.
C 4
.
D 3
.
Explanation :
In 1234,
Unit place 1 to 1234 can be formed using 0 to 9 digits. i.e., 10 digits.
1000's can be formed using only one digit, 1. i.e., 1 digit.
total no of numbers required is 10 + 10 + 10 + 1 = 31.
In 4321, it is 10 + 10 + 10 + 4 = 34.
Hence, 34-31=3.
Question 7
A man can row a distance of 5 km in 60 min with the help of the tide. The direction
of the tide reverses with the same speed. Now he travels a further 20 km in 10
hours. How much time he would have saved if the direction of tide has not
changed?
A 5 hrs
.
B 4 hrs
.
C 12 hrs
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
Dist=speed*time.
=> 5=(u+v)*1hr
=> 20=(u-v)*10
By solving,
u=7/2
v=3/2
Therfore,
=> 20=(u+v)*t
=> 20=(3/2 + 7/2)*t
=> t=4hr
Hence, the time saved=6 hr.
Question 8
A coin will be flipped five times. If the results are either 0, 1, 4, or 5 heads, you will
receive Rs.10. If the results are 2 or 3 heads, you will have to pay Rs.5. What is your
mathematical expectation?
A 0.625 paisa
.
B 0.725 paisa
.
C 0.825 paisa
.
D 0.925 paisa
.
Explanation :
4*10*(1/2)^5+2*(-5)*(1/2)^5
(1/2) is probability of getting no of heads.
Therefore calculating above gives 0.825 paisa.
Question 9
B is mother of D but D is not daughter of B. 2) A is son of M and brother of G. 3) G is
sister of D which of the following cannot be referred from the given information .?
A B has 3 children
.
B M has two sons

.
C G is younger to B.
.
D A is younger to D.
.
Explanation :
From the given information it can be said
B & M has 3 children( 2 Sons D & A, and daughter G).
Definitely G is younger to B as she is daughter of G.
But it cann't be said who is younger among children A,D & G.
Question 10
1,3,7,13,21,31,.....
A 43
.
B 33
.
C 41
.
D 45
.
Explanation :
1+2 = 3
3+4 = 7
7+6 = 13.
An = A(n-1) + 2*(n-1) (for n>1)
Therefore A7 = A6 + 2*6 = 31 + 12 = 43.
Question 11
Arun gave a portion of the money he had to Gopal. Gopal in turn gave 40% of what
he got from Arun to Dinesh. How much money did Dinesh get ? To find out the
answer, which of the following informations given in statements (P) and (Q) is/are
sufficient ? P : Arun had Rs. 4000 with him. Q : The difference between the amounts
of Gopal and Dinesh was Rs. 500.
A Only Q is sufficient
.
B Only P is sufficient
.
C Either P or Q is sufficient
.
D Both P and Q together are needed

.
Explanation :
Only Q is sufficient as P states dat arun had 4000rs bt it is not given how uch part
out of dis he gave to gopal
But from diff btween gopal n dinesh amt is 500
So, G-D=500
As given 40% of gopal is given to dinesh
So, D=0.4G
=> G-0.4G=500
=> G=833.33
=> D=533.33.

PAPER-7
Question 1
Sixteen men complete a work in 24 days while 48 children can do it in 16 days.
Twelve men started the work, after 14 days 12 children joined them. In how Many
days will all of them together complete the remaining work?
A 15 days
.
B 14 days
.
C 10 days
.
D 12 days
.
Explanation :
work complete by 12 men in 14 days= 12*14/(24*16)
Remaining work = 9/16
work complete by 12 men & 12 children = (12/(24*16)) + 12/(48*16)
No. of days = work complete by 12 men & 12 children / remaining work
Hence answer = 12 days.
Question 2
Two series are 16,21,26.... and 17,21,25.....What is the sum of first hundred
common numbers ?
A 011100
.
B 101100
.
C 101101
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
Sum of first hundred Common Number will be 101100.
1st Series increasing by 5.

2nd Series increasing by 4.
By extending two series, we get,
1st Series = 16 21 26 31 36 41 46 51 56 61 66 71 76 and so on..

2nd Series = 17 21 25 29 33 37 41 45 49 53 57 61 63 and so on..
By above series, we have the common terms

21 41 61 81 101 121 and so on.. (Form of A.P. where d=20)
To finding Sum of first 100 common terms, we use the below formula
[n/2(2a+(n-1)d]
n=100 ; a=21; d=20; (n=number of terms; a=Starting common term;
d=difference)
Substituting those values in the formula,

=> [100/2*(2*21+(100-1)*20)]
=> [50*(42+(99)*20)]
=> [50*(42+1980)]
=> [50*2022]
=> 101100.
Question 3
The average age of 30 students of a class is 12 years. The average age of a group
of 5 of the students is 10 years and that of another group of 5 of them is 14 years.
What is the average age of the remaining students ?
A 8 years
.
B 10 years
.
C 12 years
.
D 14 years
.
Explanation :
Initially sum=30*12=360
First group = 5*10=50
Second group=5*14
Remaining = 360-(50+70)=240
Average = 240/20 = 12.
Question 4
The average set of numbers is 46, if 4 numbers whose average is 52 are subtracted
from this set,the average becomes 44.5.find the original number in the set?
A 22
.
B 20
.
C 18
.
D 16
.
Explanation :
Let us consider total no's in a set be 'n'.
Sum of set= 46 * n.
=> 46*n-4*52=44.5*(n-4)
=> 46n-208=44.5n-178
=> 1.5n=30 =>n=20.
Hence, total no.s in a set is 20.
Question 5
A producer of tea blends two varieties of tea from two tea gardens one costing Rs
18 per kg and another Rs 20 per kg in the ratio 5 : 3. If he sells the blended variety
at Rs 21 per kg, then his gain percent is
A 10
.
B 12
.
C 19
.
D 22
.
Explanation :
According to the question,
=> (20-x)/(x-18)=5/3.
=> 60-3x=5x - 90.
=> 8x=150.
=> x=75/4
Now, sell price is 21 and the cost price is 75/4
So, the required profit% is [ (21 - 75/4) / 75/4 ]* 100 = (9/4) * (4/75) * 100 = 900/75
= 60/5 = 12%.
Question 6
A garrison of 3300 men has provisions for 32 days, when given at a rate of 850
grams per head. At the end of 7 days a reinforcement arrives and it was found that
now the provisions will last 8 days less, when given at the rate of 825 grams per
head.How, many more men can it feed?
A 1000
.
B 1650
.
C 1700
.
D 1690
.
Explanation :
After 7 days i.e. 32-7=25 days for 3300 men and they are working at the rate of
850 gram per head and this much provision needs to be consumed by 3300 men +
extra men in 17 days (25-8).
so the no. Of men in this case :
=> (825×17×M2)=(850×25×3300)
=> M2=5000
Hence, the no. Of extra men 5000-3300=1700 men.
Question 7

mountain?
A 13.50 km
.
B 14.82 km
.
C 12.82 km
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
since 312 inch=136 km
so 1 inch=136/312 km
so 34 inch=136*34/312=14.82 km.
Question 8

.
C 19/14
.
D 9/28
.
Explanation :
Total possible outcomes = 9c3.
Probability(atleast two of them are same color) = 1 - probability(3 different).
=> 1-(3c1*3c1*3c1)/9c3
=> 19/28.

Explanation :
What is immediately needed today is the establishment of a World Government or
an International Federation of Mankind. It is the utmost necessity of the world
today, and all those persons who wish to see all human beings happy and
prosperous naturally feel it keenly. Of course, at times, we all feel that many of our
problems of our political, social and cultural life would come to an end if there were
one Government all over the world. Travellers, businessmen, seekers of knowledge
and teachers of righteousness know very well that great impediments and
obstructions are faced by them when they pass from one country to another,
exchange goods, get informa-tion, and make an effort to spread their good gospel
among their fellow-men. In the past religious sects divided one set of people against
another, colour of the skin or construction of the body set one against the other. But
today when philosophical light has exploded the darkness that was created by
religious differences, and when scientific knowledge has falsified the theory of social
superiority and when modern inventions have enabled human beings of all religious
views and of all races and colours to come in frequent contact with one another, it is
the governments of various countries that keep people of one country apart from
those of another. They create artificial barriers, unnatural distinctions, unhealthy
isola-tion, unnecessary fears and dangers in the minds of the common men who by
their nature want to live in friendship with their fellow-men. But all these evils would
cease to exist if there were one Government all over the world.

PAPER-8
Question 1
A is 6 times as fast as B and takes 100 days less to complete a work than B. find the
total no of days taken by A and B to complete the work.
A 17/7 days
.
B 120/7 days
.
C 121/7 days
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
According to question A is 6 times as fast as B
So, Ratio of time taken by A and B will be 1:6
Let time taken by A is= x.
and time taken by B is= 6x.
According to the question, A take 100 days less.
=>6x-x=100 .
=> x=20.
So, A takes 20 days and B takes 120 days to complete the work.
A's 1 day work = 1/20.
B's 1 day work = 1/120.
(A+B)'s 1 day work = 1/20 + 1/120 = 7/120.
Total time taken = 120/7 days.
Question 2
The speed of a car increases by 2 kms after every one hour. If the distance
travelling in the first one hour was 35 kms. what was the total distance travelled in
12 hours?
A 456 kms
.
B 482 kms
.
C 552 kms
.
D 556 kms
.
Explanation :
Since, the speed of the car is in AP.
At first we need to find no. of term in the series of speeds.
=> a+(n-1)d= 57
=> 35 + (n-1)*2=57.
=> 33 + 2n = 57.
=> n= 24/2 = 12.
Total distance traveled = (n/2)[2a +(n -1)d].
=> (12/2)[2 * 35 + 11 * 2]
=> 6*[70+22]= 92 * 6 = 552.
Question 3
Of the three numbers, second is twice the first and is also thrice the third. If the
average of the three numbers is 44, the largest number is :
A 24
.
B 36
.
C 72
.
D 108
.
Explanation :
Let numbers be a, b, c.
Second is twice the first and three times the third, (so b is the largest).
a = (1/2)b
c = (1/3)b
Now we can express average in terms of b.
Average = b[1/2 + 1 + 1/3]/3 = (11/18)b = 44.
Largest, b = 18*44/11 = 72.
Question 4
In seven given numbers,the average of first four numbers is 4 and that of last four
numbers is also 4. if the average of these seven numbers is 3, the fourth number is?
A 3
.
B 4
.
C 7
.
D 11
.
Explanation :
Let 7 numbers are a,b,c,d,e,f,g.
given average of first 4 nums are 4...i.e (a+b+c+d)/4=4.
=> a+b+c+d=16
Given average of last 4 nums are also 4..i.e.(d+e+f+g)/4=4.
=> d+e+f+g=16
=> e+f+g=16-d
Given, average of 7 nums are 3....i.e (a+b+c+d+e+f+g)/7=3
=> a+b+c+d+e+f+g=21
=> 16+16-d=21
=> d=32-21
=> d=11.
Question 5
In what proportion must walnut at Rs. 62/kg be mixed with walnut at Rs. 72/kg in
order to obtain a mixture worth Rs. 65/ kg ?
A 3: 1
.
B 5 :3
.
C 6: 7
.
D 7: 3
.
Explanation :
The required ratio is (72-65)/ (65-62) = 7/3.
Question 6
If the operation,^ is defined by the equation x ^ y = 2x + y,what is the value of 'a'
in 2 ^ a = a ^ 3 ?
A -2
.
B -1
.
C 0
.
D 1
.
Explanation :
2â = 2*2 + a ......(i)
=> a^3 = 2*a + 3 .....(ii)
=> 4 + a = 2a + 3
=> a=1.
Question 7
The ratio between speed of d 2 trains is 7:8. if d 2nd train runs 400km in 4 hrs, wat
is d speed of d 1st train?
A 85kmph
.
B 87.5kmph
.
C 90kmph
.
D 92.5kmph
.
Explanation :
If the speed of the trains are 7x & 8x respectively.
2nd train's speed(kmph)=400/4=100 =8x, x=100/8=25/2.
So, 1st train's speed=7x=7*25/2= 87.5.

probability of it being 6 ?
A 1/8
.
B 3/8
.
C 3/4
.
D 1/6
.
Explanation :
Man speaks truth 3 out of 4 times=3/4.
Probability of getting 6 on throwing a dice is 1/6.
So, the required probability =(3/4)*(1/6)=1/8.

A 547
.
B 550
.
C 565
.
D 525
.
Explanation :
If we break the series in group of three numbers, then
middle number = first + 3
third number = first - 1.
So, the next number is 548 - 1 i.e 547.
Question 11
Question: Madan is elder than Kamal and Sharad is younger than Arvind. Who
among them is the youngest ?
Statements:
(I)Sharad is younger than Madan.
(II)Arvind is younger than Kamal.

*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".

Explanation :
The enjoyment of physical possession of things would seem to be one of the
prerogatives of wealth which has been little impaired. Presumably nothing has
happened to keep the man who can afford them from enjoying his Rembrandt and
his homegrown orchids. But enjoyment of things has always been associated with
the third prerogative of wealth which is the distinct it confers. In a world where
nearly everyone was poor, the distinction was very great. It was the natural
consequence of rarity. In England it is widely agreed, the ducal families are not
uniformly superior. There is a roughly normal incidence of intelligence and stupidity,
good taste and bad taste, morality, immorality. But very few people are dukes and
duchesses, although the later have become rather more frequent with modern
easing of divorce laws. As a result, even though they may be intrinsically
unexpectional they are regarded with some awe. So it has long have been with the
rich. Were dukes numerous their position would deteriorate. As the rich have
become more numerous, they have inevitably becomes a debased currency.

Question 1
A, B and C can do a piece of work in 30,45, and 90 days.In how many days 'A' alone
do the work if he is assited by B and C on every 4th day?
A 22 days
.
B 24 days
.
C 20 days
.
D none of these
.
Explanation :
A's 1 day work=1/30
So,A's 3 day work=3/30
Thus, (A+B+C) 1 day work = 1/15
=> 4 day work = 3/30 + 1/15 = 1/6
Therefore, total work will be done in = 4 * 6 = 24 days.
Question 2

the actual speed of the car?
A 30kmph
.
B 35kmph
.
C 25kmph
.
D 40kmph
.
Explanation :
Speed of the car(kmph) = 42/[(1*3600 + 40 * 60 + 48)/3600] = 25.
Actual speed of the car = 25/(5/7) = 35 kmph.
Question 3
A rectangle has twice the area of a square. The length of the rectangle is 14 cm
greater than that side of the square whereas breadth is equal to side of the square.
Find the perimeter of the square?
A 42 cms
.
B 14 cms
.
C 56 cms
.
D 28 cms
.
Explanation :
let side of square be x.
then for rectangle l=14+x and b=x.
its given
area of rect=2(area of sq)
=> l*b=2(x*x)
=> (x+14)*x=2*x^2
=> x^2+14x=2x^2
=> x^2=14x
=> x=14.
Hence, the perimeter of square = 4*14 = 56.
Question 4
The average age of boys in the class is twice the number of girls in the class. If the

A 490
.
B 196
.
C 420
.
D 360
.
Explanation :
Total number of students = 36.
The ratio of boys and girls = 5:1
Hence, the number of boys = 5 * 6 = 30
and Girls = 6.
Since, the average age of boys is twice of girls, So
=> (total age)/30=2*6.
=> Total age = 360.

head.How, many more men can it feed?
A 1000
.
B 1650
.
C 1700
.
D 1690
.
Explanation :
After 7 days i.e. 32-7=25 days for 3300 men and they are working at the rate of
850 gram per head and this much provision needs to be consumed by 3300 men +
extra men in 17 days (25-8).
so the no. Of men in this case :
=> (825×17×M2)=(850×25×3300)
=> M2=5000
Hence, the no. Of extra men 5000-3300=1700 men.

If twice of the result is equal to 500 then find the number.
A 45
.
B 23
.
C 87
.
D 47
.
Explanation :
=> 2[(x+2)2 * 2/5 ] = 500.
=> (x+2)2*2/5 = 250.
=> x + 2 = 25.
=> x = 23.
Question 8

Explanation :
As per the information,
Probablity of getting head on Rs. 1= 1/2.
Probablity of getting tail on Rs. 2= 1/2.
Probablity of getting head on Rs. 5= 1/2.
So, Net probablity= 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8.

A -128
.
B 127
.
C 0

D Compile Time Error

.
Explanation :
Notice the semicolon at the end of the for loop. The initial value of the 'i' is set to
0. The inner loop executes to increment the value from 0 to 127 (the positive range
of char) and then it rotates to the negative value of -128.Now, the condition in the
'for' loop fails and so comes out of the for loop.
Hence, it prints the current value of i i.e -128.

that it is not a one-way process. There is often a nexus between power hungry and
corrupt politicians and civil servants with convenient principles. Many civil servants
are only too anxious to oblige the politicians, and then cash the obligation when
they need some special favour. So the attitude of self-righteousness adopted by the
civil service is sometimes only a way of covering their own flaws by blaming others.
Every now and then some retired civil servants come out with his memoirs, painting
a glorious picture of the heights of administrative efficiency reached during his
reign. There is often the suggestion that had there not been so much political
interference, things would have been even more fantastic. It is not unusual for the
self styled hero to blame not only interfering politicians but also fellow civil servants
who are idiots or crooks, for his failures. This attitude of smug self-satisfaction is,
unfortunately, developed during the years of service. Self preservation rather than
service is encouraged by our whole system of rules and procedures.
The remedy has to be drastic and quickly effective. The over protection now
granted to civil servants must end. Today to remove an erring civil servant is just
not possible. And the only thing that the highest authority in the Government, both
in the State and at the Centre, can do is to transfer an official from one job to
another. The rules for taking disciplinary action are so complicated that, in the end,
the defaulting civil servants gets away, and gets his full emoluments even for the
period of the disciplinary proceedings, thus making it a paid holiday for him.
The result is that the administration has become rule-oriented and not result-
oriented. Action is possible against the official who takes some interest in his work,
but no action is ever taken against a person who does not deliver the goods. If the
country is to adopt a result-oriented approach, it is necessary to link job
performance with job retention.

PAPER-10
Question 1
Two men and 7 children complete the work in 4 days while 4 men and 4 children
complete the same work in only 3 days. The number of days required by 1 man to
complete the work is
A 60 days
.
B 15 days
.
C 6 days
.
D 51 days
.
Explanation :
2 men and 7 children complete the work in 4 days
or 8 men and 28 children complete the work in 1 days
4 men and 4 children complete the same work in only 3 days.
or 12 men and 12 children complete the same work in only 3 days.
So 8 men + 28 children = 12 men +12 children
=> 1 Man = 4 children
Given, 4 men and 4 children complete the same work in only 3 days
or 4 men and 1 man ( in place of 4 children ) complete the same work in only 3
days
or 5 men complete the same work in 3 days
Hence, 1 man will complete the same work in 5 * 3 =15 days.
Question 2
Two men together start a journey in the same direction.they travel 9 kmph and 15
kmph respectively.After travelling for 6 hours the man travelling at 9kmph doubles
his speed and both of them finish the distance in the same time.How many hours
will they take to reach their destination?
A 16 hrs
.
B 18 hrs
.
C 17 hrs
.
D 20 hrs
.
Explanation :
Initially, A's-> 9 * 6 = 54 km , B's-> 15 * 6 = 90 km (At 6 hours)
Difference between them is 36 km's, A's speed is doubled (9 -> 18)
No difference between A and B is 3 kmph so, 36 / 3 = 12.
Initially 6 hrs + 12 hrs = 18 hrs.
Question 3
The rectangle box with square base is open at the top. The maximum volume of the
box made from 1200 m2 tin, in m3 is:
A 2000 m3
.
B 2500 m3
.
C 3000 m3
.
D 4000 m3
.
Explanation :
Let the length be x and the breadth be y.
Now since it has a square base, so x = y
Now the surface area can be given as S= x 2+4xy (Area of square base + Area of
Sides)
And Volume can be given as V = x2y
ATQ, S =1200,so 1200 = X2 + 4xy
y=(1200-x2)/4x
Now for V to be max
V' = 0.
V'(x) = x2y .
Solving for x we get x=20
Now y=20m.
Hence volume is 20 x 20 x 10 = 4000m.
Question 4
Five years ago, the avearge age of P and Q was 15 years. Average age of P, Q and R
today is 20 years. How old will R be after 10 years ?
A 35 yrs
.
B 40 yrs
.
C 30 yrs
.
D 50 yrs
.
Explanation :
Average age of P & Q 5 year ago was 15 i.e.
=> ((P - 5) + (Q - 5))/2 = 15.
=> P + Q = 40. ----(i)
Average of the ages of P,Q & R is 20 year i.e P + Q + R = 60 ----(ii)
Now from eq(i) and eq(ii), we get R =20.
Hence, After 10 years the age of R will be 20 + 10 i.e 30 years.
Question 5
Four years ago Rekha's mother was 11/4 times elder than her in age. If the total age
of the two then was 60 yrs. what is the present age of Rekha ?
A 24 yrs
.
B 20 yrs
.
C 16 yrs
.
D 12 yrs
.
E 8 yrs
.
Explanation :
Let the present age of Rekha and her motehr be x and y respectively.
=> y - 4 = (x-4)*(11/4)
=> 4y - 16 = 11x - 44
=> 11x - 4y = 28 ------(i)
and,
=> y - 4 + x - 4 = 60.
=> x + y - 8 = 60
=> x + y = 68 -------(ii)
Multiply eq(ii) with 4,
4x + 4y = 272 --------(iii)
From eq(i) and eq(iiI), we have:
=> 15x = 300
=> x = 20.
Hence, the present age of Rekha is 20 years.
Question 6
A butler is promised Rs. 100 and a cloak as his wages for a year. After 7 months he
leaves this service, and receives the cloak and Rs.20 as his due. How much is the
cloak worth?
A 76
.
B 84
.
C 92
.
D 68
.
Explanation :
Let the price of cloak = x.
Salary in 12 months = x + 100.
Salary/Month = (x + 100)/12.
Salary in 7 months = 7 * (x + 100)/12.
According to the question, Salary in 7 months = x + 20.
Hence,7*(x + 100)/12=x+20.
=> 7x + 700 = 12x + 240.
=> x = 92.
Question 7
'A' and 'B' together have Rs.2412. If 8/25 of a's amount is = 2/5 of b's amount,how
much amount does 'a' have?
A 1240
.
B 1250
.
C 1300
.
D 1340
.
Explanation :
Let A's amount=a and B's amount=b.
So, a+b=2412.
=> b=2412-a ......(1)
and According to the problem,
=> (8/25)a = (2/5)b ......(2)
Putting (1) in (2)

=>(8/25)a=(2/5)(2412-a)
On solving, we get:
=> a = Rs. 1340.
Question 8
What are the values of X and Y in 72x23Y, if it is perfectly divisible by 88.
A X =1 y=5
.
B X =7 y=5
.
C X =3 y=2
.
D X =7 y=2
.
Explanation :
Given, the number is divisible by 88 then, 72X23Y would be divisible by 8 and 11 as
well.
Then also, Remainder of (23Y/8) would be 0.
=> Y = 2.
And 72X23Y would be divisible by 11 if [(3+X+7)-(Y+2+2)] or [(3+X+7)-(2+2+2)]
or (10+X-6) or (X+4) is divisible by 11.
It is possible when X=11-4=7.
So,X=7,Y=2.

Explanation :
A new analysis has determined that the threat of global warming can still be greatly
diminished if nations cut emissions of heat-trapping greenhouse gases by 70% this
century. The analysis was done by scientists at the National Center for Atmospheric
Research (NCAR).While global temperatures would rise, the most dangerous
potential aspects of climate change, including massive losses of Arctic sea ice and
permafrost and significant sea-level rise, could be partially avoided. “This research
indicates that we can no longer avoid significant warming during this century,” said
NCAR scientist Warren Washington, the study paper’s lead author. “But, if the world
were to implement this level of emission cuts, we could stabilize the threat of
climate change”, he added.
Average global temperatures have warmed by close to 1 degree Celsius since the
pre-industrial era. Much of the warming is due to human-produced emissions of
greenhouse gases, predominantly carbon dioxide. This heat-trapping gas has
increased from a pre-industrial level of about 284 parts per million (ppm) in the
atmosphere to more than 380 ppm today. With research showing that additional
warming of about 1 degree C may be the threshold for dangerous climate change,
the European Union has called for dramatic cuts in emissions of carbon dioxide and
other greenhouse gases.
To examine the impact of such cuts on the world’s climate, Washington and his
colleagues ran a series of global studies with the NCAR-based Community Climate
System Model (CCSM). They assumed that carbon dioxide levels could be held to
450 ppm at the end of this century. In contrast, emissions are now on track to reach
about 750 ppm by 2100 if unchecked. The team’s results showed that if carbon
dioxide were held to 450 ppm, global temperatures would increase by 0.6 degrees
Celsius above current readings by the end of the century. In contrast, the study
showed that temperatures would rise by almost four times that amount, to 2.2
degrees Celsius above current readings, if emissions were allowed to continue on
their present course. Holding carbon dioxide levels to 450 ppm would .have other
impacts, according to the climate modeling study. Sea-level rise due to thermal
expansion as water temperatures warmed would be 14 centimetres (about 5.5
inches) instead of 22 centimetres (8.7 inches). Also, Arctic ice in the summertime
would shrink by about a quarter in volume and stabilize by 2100, as opposed to
shrinking at least three quarters and continuing to melt, and Arctic warming would
be reduced by almost half.
Question 33
What would NOT be one of the impacts of cutting greenhouse gas emissions ?
A Temperatures will stop soaring

.
B Ice in the Arctic sea would melt at a slower pace

.
C The rise in sea level would be lesser

.
D None of the above

.
Explanation :
The passage mentions clearly that if greenhouse emissions are cut, it will have all
the given impacts.
Question 34
What would be the impact of holding the carbon dioxide level at 450 ppm at the end
of this century ?
(A) Global temperatures would increase by 0.6 degrees Celsius.
(B) Arctic warming would be reduced by half.
(C) Thermal expansion will stop completely.
A Only (A)

divided in the ratio 2:3. What is B’s contribution in the capital?
A) Rs .7500
B) Rs. 8000
C) Rs. 8500
D) Rs. 9000
Answer: D
Explanation:
Ratio in which profit is to be divided = 2 : 3
Assume that B's contribution to the capital = b
3500 × ⇒ 12 : b × 7 = 2 : 3
⇒ 3500 × 12/7 b = 2/3
⇒ b = (3500 × 12 × 3)/(2 × 7) = 500 × 6 × 3 = 9000

4. Out of four numbers ,the average of first three is 16 and that of the last three is 15. If the
last number is
18,the first number is :
A) 20
B) 21
C) 23
D) 25
Answer: B
Explanation:
Let the numbers be a,b,c,d
Given, a + b + c = 48, b + c + d = 45
Now, d = 18
thus, b + c + 18 = 45 ⇒ b + c = 27
Putting the value of b + c in a + b + c = 48
a + 27 = 48 ⇒ a = 21
5. A batsman makes a score of 87 runs in the 17th inning and thus increases his average by
3 . Find his
average after 17th inning.
A) 39
B) 38
C) 38.5
D) 39.5
Answer: A
Explanation:
Consider the avg for first 16 innings is x.
Then total runs scored till 16 innings is 16x.
Total runs after 17 innings = 16x + 87.
Thus, 16x+8717=x+3 ⇒ x = 36
So his average after 17 innings = 39.
6. Three years ago , the average age of A, B and C was 27 years and that of B and C 5 years
ago was 20
years. A’s present age is :
A) 30 yrs
B) 35 yrs
C) 40 yrs
D) 48 yrs
Answer: C
Explanation:
Sum of the present ages of A, B and C = (27× 3 + 3 × 3) years = 90 years.
Sum of the present ages of B and C = (20 × 2 + 5 × 2) years = 50 years.
A's present age = 90 – 50 = 40 years.
7.The average of six numbers is 30. If the average of first four is 25 and that of last three is
35, the fourth
number is :
A) 25
B) 30
C) 35

Answer: A
Explanation:
Let the six numbers be, a, b, c, d, e, f.
a + b + c + d + e + f = 30 × 6 = 180 - - - - (1)
a + b + c + d = 25 × 4 = 100 - - - - (2)
d + e + f = 35 × 3 = 105 - - - - (3)
Add 2nd and 3rd equations and subtract 1st equation from this.
d = 25
8. A and B are partners in a business. A contributes 1/4 of the capital for 15 months and B
received 2/3 of the profit . For how long B’s money was used.
A) 6 months
B) 9 months
C) 10 months
D) 1 year
Answer: C
Explanation:
B received 2/3 of the profit Their profits ratio ⇒ = A : B = 1 : 2
Let the total capital = 4 units
Then A's capital = 1
B's capital = 3
Assume B's money was used for b months
Then A : B = 1 × 15 : 3 × b = 1 : 2
⇒ 15 : 3b = 1 : 2
⇒ 153b=12
⇒ b = 10

Let SP = 5, and CP = 4
So profit percentage = 14×100=25%
13. The average monthly salary of 8 workers and one supervisor in a factory was $430.
When the supervisor,
whose salary was $870 per month, retired, a new person was appointed and then the
average salary of 9
people was $400 per month. The salary of the new supervisor is:
A. $700
B. $600
C. $430
D. $400
Answer: B

Total salary of 8 workers and supervisor together = 9 × 430 = 3870
Now total salary of 8 workers = 3870 − 870 = 3000
Total salary of 9 workers including the new supervisor = 9 × 400 = 3600
Salary of the new supervisor = 3600 − 3000 = 600

⇒6x = 10.5
Paper- 2
1.
1) B is mother of D but D is not daughter of B.
2) A is son of M and brother of G.
3) G is sister of D
Which of the following cannot be referred from the given information ?
(A) B has 3 children
(B) M has two sons
(C) G is younger to B.
(D) A is younger to D
Answer: d
Explanation:
D is the son of B. Also from the third clue, G and D are siblings. A is the brother of G (from
2nd clue). So A, G,
D are siblings. A is the son of M. So M is the father (as B is the mother).
Finally, B and M has 3 children : 2 Sons D & A, and daughter G.
Definitely G is younger to B as she is daughter of G
But it can't be said who is younger among children A,D & G. So option D is not inferred.
2. A contractor undertook to make 15 km of roadway in 40 weeks. In 10 weeks, 3 km was

complete by 180 men
working 8 hours a day. The men then agreed to work 1 hour a day overtime, And some boys
were engaged to
assist them, the work was finished in the stipulated time(40 weeks). How many boys were
employed, if the work
of 3 boys is equal to that of 2 men?
a) 70
b) 50
c) 60
d) 80
Answer: b
Explanation:
Let the capacity of man = 3 units, and boy = 2 units per hour.
Now total work = 3×180×8×7×10 = 3 km. - - - - - - - (1)
Let k boys were recruited. Now total work = (3×180+2×k) ×9×7×30 = 12km. - - - - - - (2)
By dividing 2nd equation by 1st,
⇒ (540+2k)×9×7×303×180×8×7×10=4
⇒ k = 50
3. A can do a piece of work in 10 days, B in 15 days. They work for 5 days. The rest of work
finished by C in 2 days.If they get Rs 1500 for the whole work, the daily wages of B and C
are?
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the total work = 30 units.
Then capacity of A = 3 units, B = 2 units. Now they worked for 5 days. So they must have
completed 25 units. Rest of the work 5 units done by C in 2 days. So C capacity = 5/2 = 2.5
units.
Given that toatal wages are Rs.1500 for 30 units. So for 1 unit of work they get Rs.50. Now B
and
C per day work = (2 + 2.5) = 4.5 units. So their daily wages = 4.5 × 50 = Rs.225

A. 49.6%
B. 50.4%
C. 40%
D. 60%
E. None of these
Answer: a
Explanation:
Let the initial price be 100.
30% discount on 100 is 30
(100 – 30) = 70
20% discount on the 70 is 14
(70 – 14) = 56
10%discount on the 56 is 5.6
So the answer is 30 + 14 + 5.6 = 49.6

14. If there are 5,000 voters out of which 20% are not eligible to vote and there are two
candidates contesting. The winning candidate won by 15% of votes. What is the total
number of
votes he got ?
Answer: 2300
Explanation:
Number of voters eligible for voting = 5000 × 0.8 = 4000
Number of votes extra got by the winning candidate = 4000 × 0.15 = 600
Let the number of votes won by winning candidate = x.
⇒ x – (4000 – x) = 600
⇒ x = 2300
15. Find the set of all points (x, y) such that the area of the triangle with vertices (0, 0), (6,
4) and
(x, y) is 4.
A).(x, y) lies on the circle (y – 6)2 + (x – 4)2 = 16
B).(x, y) satisfies 6y – 4x = 8 or 6y – 4x = –8
C).(x, y) satisfies 6y – 4x = 4 or 6y – 4x = –4
D).(x, y) satisfies 6y – 4x = 8
Answer: b
Explanation:
Area of a triangle if one of the point is (0, 0) = 12|(x1y2−x2y1)|
⇒ 12|(6×y−4×x)| = 4
⇒ 6y – 4x = 8
16. When not moving on the sidewalk, Maya can walk the length of the sidewalk in 7
minutes. If
she stands on the sidewalk as it moves, she can travel the length in 4 minutes. If Maya
walks on
the sidewalk as it moves, how many minutes will it take her to travel the same distance?
Assume
she always walks at the same speed, and express your answer as a decimal to the nearest
tenth.
(a) 3.6
(b) 2.5
(c) 3.8
(d) 2.8
Answer: b
Explanation:
Assume distance of sidewalk "x"
Speed 1 (moving on sidewalk)
Speed 2 (moving off sidewalk)
Since both the movements are in same direction, we can do speed 1 + speed 2
Speed 1 = x4
Speed 2 = x7
Speed 1 + speed 2 = 11x28 = = 0.39286x
Now new time while moving on sidewalk = x0.39286x = 2.54544
Hence, the answer is 2.5

young = 12 (twice of old)
Paper-3
1. Mr.P and Mr.Q can build a wall in 10 days; Mr.Q & Mr.R can take 14 days to build the same
wall; and Mr.P
and Mr.R can do it in 8 days. Who among them will take more time when they work alone?
a. p
b. q
c. r
d. data inadequate
Answer: b
Explanation:
Let the total work be 280 units.
Now P and Q capacity per day = 280/10 = 28 units.
Q and R capacity per day =280/14 = 20 units
P and R capacity per day = 280/8 = 25 units.
Adding all the three,
2(P + Q + R) = 73 ⇒ P + Q + R = 36.5 units.
We are asked to find who will take maximum time. So the capacity is minimum. R capacity is
minimum as (P +
Q + R) - (P + R) = 36.5 - 28 = 8.5.

among the
boys in that class is 4th from the top and 18th from the bottom and Tanvi's rank among the
girls
is 8th from top and 21st from bottom. In the order of rank, how many girls are there
between
Tanvi and Vikas?
A) 1
B) 2
C) 5
D) 3
Answer: b
Explanation:
Vikas's rank in the class is 9. So there are 8 people before him. His rank among boys is 4. So
3
boys are before him. So there are 8 – 3 = 5 girls before him.
Tanvi's rank among the girls is 8. So there are 7 girls before her. So number of girls between
Vikas and Tanvi is 7 – 5 = 2
4. Two Equal Amounts of Money are lent out at 6% and 5 % simple Interest respectively at
the
same time. The former is recovered two years earlier than the latter and the amount so
recovered
in each case is Rs.2800. Determine the amount that is lent out?
A) 1950
B) 1500
C) 1800
D) 1375
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the first amount lent for t + 2 years and second at t years. and amount = P
Now amount = P + P×t×6100 = P×(t+2)×5100 = 2800.
Equating first two parts, we get t×6100=(t+2)×5100
⇒ t = 10.
Now P+P×10×6100=2800
⇒ 1610P=2800
⇒ P = 1750.

heads.
The number of cows is :
a. 5
b. 7
c. 10
d. 12
Answer: b
Explanation:
Let the number of cows be x and hens be y.
So heads = x + y
Legs = 4x + 2y
Now
⇒ 4x + 2y = 2(x + y) + 14
⇒2x = 14
⇒ x = 7.

11. If six persons sit around a table, the probability that some specified three of them are
always
together is
a)1/20
b)3/10
c)1/5
d)4/5
Answer: b
Explanation:
Let us group those 3 persons into one. Now 4 elements can be arranged in a circle in (4 - 1)!
ways. Now those three persons in that group can arrange themselves in 3! ways. So total
ways =
3! × 3!.
Total ways of arranging 6 persons around a circle = (6-1)!.
Probability = 3!×3!5! = 310
12. Out of four numbers ,the average of first three is 16 and that of the last three is 15 .If
the last
number is 18,the first number is :
A) 20
B) 21
C) 23
D) 25
Answer: b
Explanation:
Let the numbers be a, b, c, d
From the 1st condition, Sum of the first three numbers = a + b + c = 16 × 3 = 48
In the 2nd condition, b + c + d = 45
Now,d is given value as 18
thus, b + c + 18 = 45
b + c = 27
Putting the value of b + c in equation, a + b + c = 48
⇒ a + 27 = 48
⇒ a = 21
13. Mr. X has to build a wall 1000 meters long in 50 days. He employs 56 men but at the end
of
27 days finds that only 448 meters are built. How many more men must be employed so
that the
work may be finished in time?
a)58
b)81
c)38
d)25
Answer: d
Explanation:
Initially Mr.X over estimated the capacity of the workers. Infact, 56 men built 448 meters in
27
days. So our problem is to find How many men can built 552 meters in 23 days. Use chain
rule.
Required number of men = 56×552448×2723 = 81
Additional number of men = 81 – 56 = 25
14. In a race you drove 1st lap with 40 kmph and in the second lap at what speed you must
drive
so that your average speed must be 80 kmph.
Answer: Infinity
Explanation:
Infinite speed.
Let distance of lap be d km.
Total distance = 2d km.
Time for first lap = d/40 kmph and that for second lap = d/x kmph, where x is requied
speed.
Average speed = (total distance)/ (total time)
⇒ 2d/(d/40+d/x)
⇒ 2/(1/40+1/x).
Given this is equal to 80.
So, 2/(1/40+1/x) = 80
2 = 2 + 80/x.
Which means 80/x = 0.
For that x must be equal to infinity.
15. A and B working separately can do a piece of work in 6 and 9 days respectively; they
work on
alternate days starting with A on the first day. In how many days will the work be done?
Answer: 7
Explanation:
A = 1/6 days
B = 1/9 days
With A starting the work
In a period of 2 days work done by a and b = 1/6 + 1/9 = 5/18
In 3 such periods work done = 5/18 + 5/18 +5/18 = 15/18
Remaining work = 1 – 15/18 = 1/6
Now its a turns and it can complete the remaining work
So number of days = 3 × 2 + 1 = 7
16. In a certain office, 72% of the workers prefer tea and 44% prefer coffee. If each of them
prefers tea or coffee and 40 like both, the total number of workers in the office is :
a. 200
b. 240
c. 250
d. 320
Answer: c
Explanation:
If the total number of workers is 100 then 72 prefer tea and 44 prefer coffee.
n(Tea ∪ Coffee) = n(Tea) + n(Coffee) - n(Tea ∩ Coffee)
100 = 72 + 44 – x
x = 116 – 100 = 16.
Therefore Out of 100 workers, 16 take both coffee and tea.
But as per the problem 40 take both coffee and tea
100 - - - 16
? - - - - - 40
(40/16) × 100 = 250.
17. P & Q can draw a picture in 144 hours; Q & R can draw a same picture in 240 hours; P &
R can
finish it in 180 hours. What will be the time taken by P alone to draw the picture?
a) 280 hours
b) 240 hours
c) 200 hours
d) 300 hours
Answer: b
Explanation:
Given that, (P + Q) takes 144 hours; i.e., (P + Q)'s 1 hour's work = 1144
(Q + R) takes 240 hours; i.e., (Q + R)'s 1 hour's work = 1240
(P + R) takes 180 hours; i.e., (P + R)'s 1 hour's work = 1180
Adding above 3, we get,
2(P + Q + R)'s 1 hour's work = 1144+1240+1180 = 5+3+4720= 12720 = 160
2(P+Q+R)'s 1 hour's work = 160
Therefore, (P+Q+R)'s 1 hour's work = 1120
Now, P's 1 hour's work = (P+Q+R)'s 1 hour's work - (Q+R)'s 1 hour's work
= 1120 - 1240 = 1240
Therefore P alone takes 240 hours.

Question 1
In an A.P., if the sum of first X terms is Y and the sum of first Y terms is X
then what will be sum of
(X+Y) terms?
a) 2(X+Y) b) (X+Y) c) -(X+Y) d) -(2X+Y)
Answer : c) -(X+Y).
Solution :
We know that, sum of first n-terms of an A.P. with first term a and common
difference d is S(n) =
n/2 (2a+(n-1)d).
Given that, sum of first X terms = Y
i.e., S(X) = X/2 (2a + (X-1)d) = Y
X(2a + (X-1)d) = 2Y....(1)
And, sum of first Y terms = X
i.e., S(Y) = Y/2 (2a + (Y-1)d) = X
Y(2a + (Y-1)d) = 2X ....(2)
Subtracting, (1) and (2), we get,
2X - 2Y = Y(2a + (Y-1)d) - X(2a + (X-1)d)
2X - 2Y = Y2a + Y(Y-1)d - X2a - X(X-1)d
2(X - Y) = (Y - X)(2a) + (dY2) - Yd - (dX2) + Xd
-2(Y - X) = (Y - X) (2a) - (Y-X)d - d(X2 - Y2)
-2(Y - X) = (Y - X) (2a - d) - d(X2 - Y2)
-2(Y - X) = (Y - X) (2a - d) - d(X-Y)(X+Y)
-2(Y - X) = (Y - X) (2a - d) + d(Y-X)(X+Y)
-2 = (2a-d) + d(X+Y)
-2 = 2a + d(X+Y-1)....(3)
We have to find the sum of X+Y terms.
i.e., S(X+Y) = [(X+Y) / 2] x (2a + (X+Y-1))d
Sub. eqn (3) in above eqn, we have,
S(X+Y) = [(X + Y) / 2] x (-2) = -(X + Y)
Hence, the required answer is -(X + Y).
Question 2
In an A.P., if the sum of first X terms is Z(X2), the sum of first Y terms is
Z(Y2) and X is not equal
to Y, then which of the following equals the sum of first Z terms of the A.P.?
a) Z3 b) (X + Y)Z2 c) (X - Y)Z2 d) Z2
Answer : a) Z2.
Solution :
Given that, sum of first X terms = Z(X2)

i.e., S(X) = X/2 (2a + (X-1)d) = Z(X2)
(2a + (X-1)d) = 2XZ
2a + Xd - d = 2ZX....(1)
And, sum of first Y terms = Z(Y2)
i.e., S(Y) = Y/2 (2a + (Y-1)d) = Z(Y2)
(2a + (Y-1)d) = 2ZY
2a + Yd - d = 2ZY....(2)
Subtracting (1) and (2), we get,
Xd - Yd = 2ZX - 2ZY
(X - Y)d = 2(X - Y)Z
d = 2Z....(3)
Sub. d value in eqn (1), we have
(2a + (X - 1)2Z) = 2XZ
2a + 2XZ - 2Z = 2XZ
2a = 2Z
a = Z...(4)
We have to find the sum of first Z terms, i.e., S(Z) = Z/2 (2a + (Z-1)d).
Substitute a and d values in above eqn,
S(Z) = Z/2 (2Z + (Z-1) 2Z) = Z(Z + (Z-1)Z) = Z2 + Z3 - Z2 = Z3.
Question 3
If S1, S2 and S3 are sums of first n terms of three A.P's with common
difference 1, 2, and 3
respectively and the first term of each A.P. is 1, then which of the following
relation is true?
(i) S3 - S1 = n(n+1)
(ii) 2(S1 + S2) = n(3n-1)
(iii) S1 + S3 = 2n2
a) (i)&(ii) only b) (ii)&(iii) only c) (iii) only d)(i),(ii)&(iii).
Answer : c) (iii) only
Solution :
Given that, the first term of each A.P. is 1 and the common difference are 1,
2 and 3.
Since S1 is the sum of first n terms of the first A.P., S1 = n/2 (2a + (n-1)d) =
n/2 (2x1 + (n-1)1)
S1 = n/2 (2 + (n-1)1)
S1 = n/2 (n+1)....(1)
Since S2 is the sum of first n terms of the second A.P., S2 = n/2 (2a + (n-1)d)
= n/2 (2x1 + (n-1)2)
S2 = n/2 (2 + (n-1)2) = n/2 (2n)
S2 = n2....(2)
Since S3 is the sum of first n terms of the third A.P., S3 = n/2 (2a + (n-1)d) =
n/2 (2x1 + (n-1)3)
S3 = n/2 (3n-1)....(3)
Now, we have to find the given relations S3 - S1, 2(S1 + S2) and S1 + S3.
S3 - S1 = n/2 (3n-1) - n/2 (n+1)
= n/2 [3n - 1 - n - 1]
= n/2 (2n-2) = n(n-1)
Therefore, (i) is not true.
S1 + S2 = n/2 (n+1)+ n2 = [n (n+1) + 2n2]/2 = n(3n+1)/2
2(S1 + S2) = n (3n + 1)
Therefore, (ii) is not true.
S1 + S3 = n/2 (3n-1) + n/2 (n+1) = n/2 (3n - 1 + n + 1) = 2n2
Therefore, (iii) is true.
Hence, the answer is option c.
