Question : Directions: If the 20th of March 2001 is Tuesday, then what will be the day of the week on the 23rd of April 2021?
Option 1: Friday
Option 2: Tuesday
Option 3: Monday
Option 4: Wednesday
Correct Answer: Friday
Solution : Given:
The 20th of March 2001 is Tuesday.
Number of days from 21st of March 2001 to 20th of March 2021 –
365 × 20 = 7300; add 5 days for leap years (2004, 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020) = 7300 + 5 = 7305
Number of days from 21st of March 2021 to 23rd of April 2021 –
March = 11; April = 23
Total number of days: 7305 + 11 + 23 = 7339
The remainder after dividing 7339 by 7 is 3.
Tuesday + 3 days = Friday
So, the 23rd of April 2021 will be Friday. Hence, the first option is correct.
Question : The below bar graph shows the number of toys sold by five different shops (i.e., A, B, C, D, and E) in the first week and second week.
Find the ratio of the total number of toys sold by shops A, B, and C in the first week to the number of toys sold by shops C, D, and E in the second week.
Option 1: 1 : 13
Option 2: 9 : 1
Option 3: 13 : 9
Option 4: 9 : 13
Correct Answer: 9 : 13
Solution : Total number of toys sold by shops A, B, and C in the first week = 20 + 40 + 30 = 90
Total number of toys sold by shops C, D, and E in the second week = 20 + 60 + 50 = 130
Ratio = 90 : 130 = 9 : 13
Hence, the correct answer is 9 : 13.
Question : Directions: Which four-digit number is missing from the 4th box?
663 | 951 | 1,243 | ???? | 1,823 |
Option 1: 1313
Option 2: 1531
Option 3: 1221
Option 4: 1431
Correct Answer: 1531
Solution : Given:
663 | 951 | 1,243 | ???? | 1,823 |
In the above-given series, add 288 and 292 alternately to get the required missing number –
663 + 288 = 951, 951 + 292 = 1243, 1243 + 288 = 1531, 1531 + 292 = 1823
So, the required missing number is 1531. Hence, the second option is correct.
Question : Improve the underlined part of the sentence. Choose ‘No improvement’ as an answer if the sentence is grammatically correct.
The dog chased the ball into the neighbour’s yard.
Option 1: No Improvement
Option 2: has chasing the ball
Option 3: chase the ball
Option 4: chasing the ball
Correct Answer: No Improvement
Solution : The correct choice is the first option.
The given sentence is in the past tense. It doesn't need any improvement, as it uses the correct verb form to maintain grammatical accuracy and report the event correctly that has happened in the past.
Therefore, the given sentence is correct and requires no improvement.
Question : Select the most appropriate alternative to replace the underlined segment in the given sentence.
They met yesterday, haven’t they?
Option 1: don’t they?
Option 2: isn’t it?
Option 3: didn’t they?
Option 4: did they?
Correct Answer: didn’t they?
Solution : The third option is the correct answer.
The sentence is a statement followed by a question tag. In English, when the main clause is in the past tense, the tag question should also be in the past tense. So, "didn't they?" is the correct form.
A question tag is a very short clause at the end of a statement that changes the statement into a question. A question tag is formed by inverting the subject and verb of a statement.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "They met yesterday, didn't they?"
Question : The Vice-President is:
Option 1: A member of Lok Sabha
Option 2: A member of Rajya Sabha
Option 3: A member of either House
Option 4: Not a member of the Parliament
Correct Answer: Not a member of the Parliament
Solution : The correct option is Not a member of the Parliament.
The Vice-President of India is not a member of either house of Parliament. The Vice-President is a separate constitutional office and does not sit in the Rajya Sabha (Council of States) or the Lok Sabha (House of People). Instead, the Vice-President's primary responsibility is to preside over the Rajya Sabha and undertake other constitutionally mandated duties. The Vice-President is chosen by an electoral college comprised of members of both houses of Parliament, as well as representatives of state and union territory legislatures. Once elected, the Vice-President's major role is to serve as the Rajya Sabha's ex-officio Chairman.
Question : Given below are four sentences in jumbled order. Pick the option that gives their correct order.
A. But he seems to have become weary when it came to the ears.
B. The result is that we spend all our hours hankering after something unattainable, namely silence.
C. God constructed the human body with a lot of forethought and solicitude.
D. He left them as the most vulnerable part of a human being.
Option 1: DABC
Option 2: CDBA
Option 3: CADB
Option 4: BCDA
Correct Answer: CADB
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
The logical flow of sentences are as follows:
- In sentence C, the idea is introduced that God constructed the human body with forethought and solicitude.
- Sentence A then brings attention to a potential vulnerability as it mentions that the person seems to have become weary, particularly when it comes to the ears.
- Following this, sentence D explains that he left the ears as the most vulnerable part of a human being.
- Finally, sentence B provides the result or consequence of this vulnerability, stating that individuals spend their time hankering after something unattainable, namely silence.
The flow of information follows a logical sequence, starting with the construction of the human body, addressing a vulnerability, and concluding with the consequence of that vulnerability.
Therefore, the correct order is CADB.
Question : Directions: In the following diagram, the police officer represents a circle, and the corrupt represents a triangle. The poet represents a square, and the married represents a rectangle.
The area representing unmarried police officers who are not corrupt but are poets is?
Option 1: 8
Option 2: 9
Option 3: 2
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 8
Solution : Given:
The police officer represents a circle, the corrupt represents a triangle, the poet represents a square, and the married represents a rectangle.
In the below diagram, the shaded part represents the common region of unmarried police officers who are not corrupt but are poets. Married represents a rectangle and a triangle represents corrupt people. Therefore, these parts are not included.
So, 8 unmarried police officers who are not corrupt but are poets. Hence, the first option is correct.
Question : If $9\sqrt{x}=\sqrt{12}+\sqrt{147}$, then $x$ =?
Option 1: 5
Option 2: 3
Option 3: 2
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 3
Solution : $9\sqrt{x} = \sqrt{12} + \sqrt{147}$
⇒ $9\sqrt{x} = 2\sqrt{3} + 7\sqrt{3}$
⇒ $9\sqrt{x} = 9\sqrt{3}$
$\therefore x = 3$
Hence, the correct answer is 3.
Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the given set.
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g.13 – operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)
(3,13,18)
(29, 39, 44)
Option 1: (17, 27, 42)
Option 2: (25, 30, 55)
Option 3: (26, 30, 47)
Option 4: (16, 26, 31)
Correct Answer: (16, 26, 31)
Solution : Given:
(3,13,18), (29, 39, 44)
Add 10 to the first number to get the second number and add 5 to the second number to get the third number –
⇒ (3,13,18)→3 + 10 = 13, 13 + 5 = 18
⇒ (29, 39, 44)→29 + 10 = 39, 39 + 5 = 44
Let's check each option –
First option: (17, 27, 42)→17 + 10 = 27, 27 + 5 = 32 ≠ 42
Second option: (25, 30, 55)→25 + 10 = 35 ≠ 30, 30 + 5 = 35 ≠ 55
Third option: (26, 30, 47)→26 + 10 = 36 ≠ 30, 30 + 5 = 35 ≠ 47
Fourth option: (16, 26, 31)→16 + 10 = 26, 26 + 5 = 31
So, only the fourth option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
