Question : Directions: Three of the following four triads are alike in a certain way as they are formed by performing the same mathematical operations among themselves and thus form a group. Which triad does not belong to that group?

Option 1: 11 : 21 : 121

Option 2: 2 : 3 : 4

Option 3: 7 : 15 : 49

Option 4: 9 : 17 : 81

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 7 : 15 : 49


Solution : Let's check the given options –
First option: (11 : 21 : 121)→11 + (11 – 1) = 11 + 10 = 21; 112 = 121
Second option: (2 : 3 : 4)→2 + (2 – 1) = 2 + 1 = 3; 22 = 4
Third option: (7 : 15 : 49)→7 + (7 – 1) = 7 + 6 = 13 ≠ 15; 72 = 49
Fourth option: (9 : 17 : 81)→9 + (9 – 1) = 9 + 8 = 17; 92 = 81

Therefore, only the third option does not follow the pattern of the others. Hence, the third option is correct.

Question : Direction: X goes 15 metres North, then turns right and walks 20 metres. then again turns right and walks 10 metres, then again turns right and walks 20 metres. How many metres has he travelled from his original position?

Option 1: 5 m

Option 2: 10 m

Option 3: 15 m

Option 4: 20 m

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 5 m


Solution : As per the given information, the movement of X will look as follows –

 

According to the above figure, the distance that X has traveled from his original position = AE = 5 m.

Hence, the first option is correct.

Question : Three bottles of equal capacity contain mixtures of milk and water in ratios 2 : 5, 3 : 4, and 4 : 5. These three bottles are emptied into a large bottle. What will be the ratio of milk and water respectively in the large bottle?

Option 1: 73 : 106

Option 2: 73 : 116

Option 3: 73 : 113

Option 4: 73 : 189

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 73 : 116


Solution : Let the capacity of each bottle be $x$ units.
Bottle 1 has milk : water = 2 : 5
Bottle 2 has milk : water = 3 : 4
Bottle 3 has milk : water = 4 : 5
Bottle 1 contains milk = $\frac{2x}{7}$, water = $\frac{5x}{7}$
Bottle 2 contains milk = $\frac{3x}{7}$, water = $\frac{4x}{7}$
Bottle 3 contains milk = $\frac{4x}{9}$, water = $\frac{5x}{9}$
When mixed, the ratio of milk and water is:
$= (\frac{2x}{7}+\frac{3x}{7}+\frac{4x}{9}) : (\frac{5x}{7}+\frac{4x}{7}+\frac{5x}{9})$
$= (\frac{18x+27x+28x}{63}) : (\frac{45x+36x+35x}{63})$
$= 73: 116$
Hence, the correct answer is 73 : 116.

Question : Comprehension:
In the following passage, some words have been deleted. Read the passage carefully and select the most appropriate option to fill in each blank.
Last week, I made the mistake of revisiting the village where I grew up. It used to be a small, friendly community with two farms and a number of old cottages around the village green. I realised very quickly that although in (1)_______ ways it appears unchanged, in reality hardly anything is the same. All the pretty cottages are there, of course, and both the traditional farmhouses. (2)_______, none of the inhabitants are country people. All of them are commuters, who leave early every morning for the nearby town. Neither of the farmhouses is attached to a farm these days; the land (3)_______ and is managed by somebody in an office somewhere who has little interest in the village (4)_______. There are a few new houses but, they have no local character. You can see the same style anywhere in the country. The whole village, (5)_______, has been tidied up so much that it looks no more picturesque than any suburban street.

Question:
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 3.

Option 1: had been sold

Option 2: sells

Option 3: sold

Option 4: has been sold

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: has been sold


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation: The phrase "the land has been sold" is in the present perfect tense. In the context of the passage, this tense is suitable because it conveys a connection between a past action (the sale of the land) and the present state (the land being managed by somebody in an office). The present perfect tense indicates relevance to the current situation.

So, the complete sentence would be: "Neither of the farmhouses is attached to a farm these days; the land has been sold and is managed by somebody in an office somewhere who has little interest in the village."

Question : E, F, G, and H are four points lying on the circumference of a circle to make a cyclic quadrilateral. If $\angle {FGH}=57^{\circ}$, then what will be the measure of the $\angle {HEF}$?

Option 1: $33^{\circ}$

Option 2: $123^{\circ}$

Option 3: $93^{\circ}$

Option 4: $143^{\circ}$

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $123^{\circ}$


Solution :
E, F, G, and H form a cyclic quadrilateral.
$\angle {FGH}=57^{\circ}$
In a cyclic quadrilateral, the sum of opposite angles is 180$^\circ$.
So, $\angle {FGH} + \angle {HEF} = 180^\circ$
⇒ $57^{\circ} + \angle {HEF} = 180^\circ$
⇒ $\angle {HEF} = 180^\circ- 57^{\circ} = 123^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is $123^\circ$.

Question : The value of 74 + 88 ÷ 8 × 10 of 5 – 90 ÷ 15 + {44 – (108 ÷ 12)} is:

Option 1: 700

Option 2: 653

Option 3: 770

Option 4: 605

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 653


Solution : Given expression,
$74 + 88 ÷ 8 × 10\ \text{of}\ 5 - 90 ÷ 15 + {44 - (108 ÷ 12)}$
$= 74 + \frac{88}{8}\times50 - \frac{90}{15} + {44 - \frac{108}{12}}$
$= 74 + 11 \times 50- 6 + {44 - 9}$
$= 74 + 550 - 6 + 35$
$= 653$
Hence, the correct answer is 653.
