3. Two trains, 200 and 160 meters long take 1 minute to cross each other while traveling in the same direction and take only 10 seconds when they cross in opposite directions. What are the speeds at which the trains are traveling?

Explanation

When the trains are traveling in the same direction, their relative speed is the difference between their speeds. Let the speed of the first train be x and the speed of the second train be y. The relative speed is x - y. The time taken to cross each other is 1 minute, which is equal to 60 seconds. The distance covered is the sum of the lengths of the two trains, which is 200 + 160 = 360 meters. Therefore, the speed at which the trains are traveling in the same direction is 360/60 = 6 meters per second. We can set up the equation x - y = 6.

When the trains are traveling in opposite directions, their relative speed is the sum of their speeds. The time taken to cross each other is 10 seconds. The distance covered is again 360 meters. Therefore, the speed at which the trains are traveling in opposite directions is 360/10 = 36 meters per second. We can set up the equation x + y = 36.

Solving these two equations simultaneously, we find that x = 21 and y = 15. Therefore, the speeds at which the trains are traveling are 21 meters per second and 15 meters per second.

4. Directions-(Q.8-12) Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words are printed in bold to help you to locate them while answering some of the questions. Vishnu Raman was an Indian magistrate who lived about a hundred years ago. He was famed for the fairness of his judgements. One day while the magistrate was walking through the market he saw a crowd outside a poultry shop. On enquiring what the matter was he learnt that a worker had accidentally dropped a heavy sack on a chicken, crushing it to death. The chicken was small, worth only about five rupees, but the owner of the shop had caught the worker by his throat and was demanding a hundred rupees. His argument was that the chicken would have grown into a plump bird in another two years and then it would have fetched him the amount he was asking for. Somebody in the crowd recognized the magistrate, and everybody made way for him. "Judge our case, your honour !" said the owner of the chicken, letting go of the worker and bowing respectfully to the magistrate. "This man, through his carelessness has caused the death of a chicken that would have fetched me a hundred coins in another two years !" Fear had made the worker's speech incoherent. Nobody could understand what he was saying. "The price put on the chicken is hundred rupees," said the magistrate, to the worker. "I advise you to pay the owner." There was a gasp from the crowd. Everybody had expected the magistrate to favour the poor worker. The owner of the chicken was overjoyed. "They said you were fair in your judgements" he said, rubbing his hands in glee, "now I can say there is no one fairer than you !" "The Law is always fair," smiled the magistrate. "Tell me, how much grain a chicken would eat in a year ?" "About half a sack," said the poultry shop owner. "So in two years the chicken who died would have eaten a whole sack of grain," said Vishnu Raman. "Please give the sack of grain you've saved to the worker." The chicken owner turned pale. A sack of grain would cost more than hundred rupees. Frightened by the shouts from the crowd, he declared he would not take any money from the worker, and retreated into the safety of his shop in the end. What was Vishnu Raman well known for?

Explanation

Vishnu Raman was well known for his fairness of judgement. This is evident from the passage where it is mentioned that he was famed for the fairness of his judgements. Additionally, when the owner of the chicken expected the magistrate to favor the poor worker, Vishnu Raman surprised everyone by giving a fair judgement based on logical reasoning.

5. Rajesh correctly remembers that his friend Sanjay started working after April but before September. Vinod correctly remembers that Sanjay did not have a job before May. Madan correctly remembers that the month Sanjay started working had 31 days. In which month of the year did Sanjay definitely start working?

Explanation

Based on the information provided, we can deduce that Sanjay started working after April but before September (as remembered by Rajesh). Vinod remembers that Sanjay did not have a job before May. Madan remembers that the month Sanjay started working had 31 days.

From these clues, we can conclude that Sanjay started working in a month that has 31 days, which narrows down the options to July or August. Therefore, Sanjay definitely started working in either August or July.

6. Directions: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words/phrases have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions. A large number of branches' of banks have been set up in the villages. The main purpose of setting up these banks is to develop the habit of saving among the villagers and also to give loans to farmers for boosting production in one way or the other. So far banks had been concentrated in the bigger cities and Indian villagers had no faith in them. The new banks also intend to re-channel bank credit-from the big industries to the small sectors. With the intention of promoting rural banking, regional rural banks were established. These aligned the local field with the rural problems. These banks are not to replace the other credit-giving bodies but to supplement them. The Steering Committee of the Regional Rural Banks considered some structural changes. First of all they gave thought to the staffing spectrum, then to effective coordination among banks - rural cooperatives and commercial, and the possibility of bringing credit within the access of weaker sections. They wanted to recruit staff for the rural banks at lower salaries. But this type of discrimination would have been unfruitful. So it was given up. A problem with regard to the rural banks is the creditworthiness of the poor. The Indian farmers are so poor that they cannot pay back their loans. The rural Indian surveys make it quite clear that practically rural farmers have no creditworthiness. Their socio-economic mobility is almost zero. That is why banks fear that their credit will never be paid back. Another difficulty for the rural banks is that loans cannot be processed so easily. Processing loans also entails heavy expenditure. This was also going to affect their financial position. Still the establishment of the rural banks was decided because the social advantages were more important than the commercial consideration. Rural banks definitely encourage savings. No doubt the villagers do not have to pay income tax and they get many other concessions, yet their saving is not significant. Despite all the hurdles, the rural banking system will boost up the economy of villages, and thereby the economy of the country. Which of the following is one of the benefits of living in the, village, as mentioned in the passage?

Explanation

The passage states that villagers do not have to pay income tax and they also receive other concessions. This implies that one of the benefits of living in the village is the financial advantage of not having to pay income tax, which can contribute to a higher disposable income for the villagers.

11. If we add a number to three – fifth of twenty percent of 200, we get 362. Then find out the number?

Explanation

To find the number, we need to calculate three-fifths of twenty percent of 200, which is (3/5) * (20/100) * 200 = 24. Adding this to the unknown number gives us 24 + x = 362. Solving for x, we subtract 24 from both sides to get x = 338. Therefore, the number is 338.

Explanation

The correct answer is (C). The error in the sentence is the use of the phrase "to reduction" instead of "to reduce". The correct sentence should be "The Indian Government's primary goal is to reduce poverty." The word "reduction" should be changed to the verb form "reduce" to maintain grammatical correctness.

13. An aeroplane covers a certain distance at a speed of 240 kmph in 5 hours. To cover the same distance in 1 hours, it must travel at a speed of?

Explanation

To find the speed at which the airplane must travel to cover the same distance in 1 hour, we can use the formula: Speed = Distance / Time.
Given that the distance is constant, we can assume it to be D.
So, the speed of the airplane in the first scenario is 240 kmph, and the time taken is 5 hours.
Using the formula, we get 240 = D / 5.
To find the speed for 1 hour, we substitute the time as 1 hour.
So, the speed for 1 hour is D / 1 = D.
From the first equation, we know that D = 240 * 5 = 1200.
Therefore, the speed for 1 hour is 1200 kmph, which is equivalent to 720 kmph.

14. Statement: 
  • The Govt has decided to instruct the banks to open new branches in such a way. that there is one branch of any of the banks in every village of population 1000 and above or a cluster of villages with population less than 1000 to provide banking services to all the citizens.
Which of the following will weaken the step taken by the Govt?

Explanation

The given answer weakens the step taken by the Govt because it highlights that many Govt-owned banks in rural areas are making huge losses due to lack of business activities. This suggests that opening new branches in every village may not be financially viable for these banks and may further increase their losses. Therefore, this weakens the effectiveness of the Govt's decision to provide banking services to all citizens.

18. The age of a man is three times the sum of the ages of his two sons. Five years hence, his age will be double of the sum of the ages of his sons. The father's present age is?

Explanation

Let's assume the present age of the father is x years and the ages of his two sons are y and z years respectively. According to the given information, we can form two equations:
1) x = 3(y + z) (the age of the father is three times the sum of his sons' ages)
2) x + 5 = 2(y + 5 + z + 5) (five years hence, the father's age will be double the sum of his sons' ages)
Simplifying equation 2, we get x + 5 = 2(y + z + 10), which can be further simplified to x + 5 = 2(y + z) + 20.
Substituting equation 1 into equation 2, we get 3(y + z) + 5 = 2(y + z) + 20.
Simplifying further, we find y + z = 15.
Substituting this value back into equation 1, we get x = 3(15) = 45.
Therefore, the father's present age is 45 years.

25. A copper wire ofIength 36 m and diameter 2 mm is melted to form a sphere. The radius of the sphere (in cm) is

Explanation

When a copper wire of length 36 m and diameter 2 mm is melted to form a sphere, we can use the formula for the volume of a sphere to find the radius. The formula is V = (4/3)πr³, where V is the volume and r is the radius. The volume of the sphere is equal to the volume of the wire, which is equal to the volume of a cylinder with the same length and diameter as the wire. The volume of the cylinder is πr²h, where h is the height (or length) of the cylinder. Since the wire has a length of 36 m, the height of the cylinder is also 36 m. By equating the volume of the cylinder to the volume of the sphere, we can solve for the radius. After solving, we find that the radius of the sphere is 3 cm.

Statement: 
  • One aspirant was killed due to stampede while participating in a recruitment drive of police constables.
Courses of action:  
  1. The officials in charge of the recruitment process should immediately be suspended.
  2. A team of officials should be asked to find out the circumstances which led to the death of the aspirant and submit its report within a week.
  3. The Govt should ask the home department to stagger the number of aspirants over more number of days to avoid such incidents in future.

Explanation

The statement mentions that an aspirant was killed due to a stampede during a recruitment drive. Course of action 1, which suggests immediately suspending the officials in charge of the recruitment process, may not be a logical step as it assumes that the officials were directly responsible for the stampede without any evidence. However, course of action 2, which suggests forming a team to investigate the circumstances leading to the death and submit a report, is a logical step to understand the cause and prevent similar incidents in the future. Similarly, course of action 3, which suggests staggering the number of aspirants over more days to avoid such incidents, is also a logical step to ensure the safety of the participants. Therefore, the correct answer is Only 2 and 3.

  • Poverty measurement is an unsettled issue, both conceptually and methodologically. Since poverty is a process as well as an outcome, many come out of it while others may be falling into it. The net effect of these two parallel processes is a proportion commonly identified as the 'head count ratio', but these ratios hide the fundamental dynamism that characterises poverty in practice. The most recent poverty re-estimates by an expert group has also missed the crucial dynamism. In a study conducted on 13,000 households which represented the entire country in 1993-94 and again in 2004-OS, it was found that in the ten-year period 18.2% rural population moved out of poverty whereas another 22.1 % fell into it over this period. This net jncrease of about four percentage points was seen to have a considerable variation across states and regions.
Which of the following is a conclusion which can be drawn from the facts stated in the above paragraph?

Explanation

The conclusion that can be drawn from the facts stated in the paragraph is that the process of poverty measurement needs to take into account various factors to tackle its dynamic nature. This conclusion is supported by the statement that poverty is a process as well as an outcome, with people moving in and out of poverty over time. The paragraph also mentions that the most recent poverty re-estimates missed this dynamism. Therefore, it can be inferred that a comprehensive approach that considers multiple factors is necessary to accurately measure poverty.

29. Direction: The pie chart, given here, shows the amount of money spent on various sports by a school administration in a particular year.Observe the pie chart and answer the questions based on this graph.If money spent on tennis is 15,000 Rupees then find out how much money was spent on basketball and hockey all together?

Explanation

Based on the given pie chart, the amount of money spent on tennis is 15,000 Rupees. To find out the total amount of money spent on basketball and hockey, we need to calculate the combined percentage of these two sports. Since the pie chart represents the total amount of money spent, the remaining percentage would represent the combined amount spent on basketball and hockey. By subtracting the percentage of tennis from 100, we get the combined percentage of basketball and hockey. Multiplying this percentage by the total amount of money spent gives us the answer of Rs. 51,428.57.

39. Find out of the largest angle of triangle if the ratio of largest & smallest angles of a triangle in is 4:1 respectable and second largest angle of triangle is equal to 45 =

Explanation

The ratio of the largest and smallest angles of a triangle is 4:1. This means that the largest angle is four times the size of the smallest angle. Let's assume the smallest angle is x degrees. Then, the largest angle is 4x degrees.

The second largest angle is given as 45 degrees.

To find the largest angle, we can use the fact that the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Therefore, x + 4x + 45 = 180.

Simplifying the equation gives us 5x + 45 = 180.

Subtracting 45 from both sides gives us 5x = 135.

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us x = 27.

So, the smallest angle is 27 degrees and the largest angle is 4 times that, which is 4 * 27 = 108 degrees.

Therefore, the correct answer is 108.

Explanation

The pie chart shows the amount of money spent on various sports by a school administration in a particular year. If the money spent on football was Rs. 9,000, we need to find out how much more money was spent on hockey than on football. By looking at the pie chart, we can see that the portion allocated to hockey is larger than the portion allocated to football. Therefore, the amount spent on hockey is greater than the amount spent on football. The difference between the two amounts is Rs. 11,000, which is the correct answer.

42. A sum of Rs. 12,000, deposited at compound interest becomes double after 5 years. How much will it be after 20 years?

Explanation

The correct answer is Rs. 1, 92,000. This can be explained by using the formula for compound interest: A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where A is the final amount, P is the principal amount, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times interest is compounded per year, and t is the number of years. In this case, the principal amount is Rs. 12,000 and it becomes double after 5 years, so the final amount after 5 years is Rs. 24,000. We can then use this as the principal amount and calculate the final amount after 20 years using the same formula. Plugging in the values, we get A = 24000(1 + r/n)^(nt), and solving for A, we find that it is equal to Rs. 1, 92,000.

43. How many minutes does Aditya take to cover a distance of 400 m, if he runs at a speed of 20 km/hr?

Explanation

Aditya's speed is given in km/hr, but the distance is given in meters. To find the time taken in minutes, we need to convert the speed from km/hr to m/min. Since 1 km = 1000 m and 1 hr = 60 min, the speed in m/min is (20 * 1000) / 60 = 333.33 m/min. To find the time taken, we divide the distance by the speed: 400 / 333.33 = 1.2 min. Simplifying this gives us 6/5. Therefore, Aditya takes 6/5 minutes to cover a distance of 400 m.

Certain words/phrases have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions. A large number of branches' of banks have been set up in the villages. The main purpose of setting up these banks is to develop the habit of saving among the villagers and also to give loans to farmers for boosting production in one way or the other. So far banks had been concentrated in the bigger cities and Indian villagers had no faith in them. The new banks also intend to re-channel bank credit-from the big industries to the small sectors. With the intention of promoting rural banking, regional rural banks were established. These aligned the local field with the rural problems. These banks are not to replace the other credit-giving bodies but to supplement them. The Steering Committee of the Regional Rural Banks considered some structural changes. First of all they gave thought to the staffing spectrum, then to effective coordination among banks - rural cooperatives and commercial, and the possibility of bringing credit within the access of weaker sections. They wanted to recruit staff for the rural banks at lower salaries. But this type of discrimination would have been unfruitful. So it was given up. A problem with regard to the rural banks is the creditworthiness of the poor. The Indian farmers are so poor that they cannot pay back their loans. The rural Indian surveys make it quite clear that practically rural farmers have no creditworthiness. Their socio-economic mobility is almost zero. That is why banks fear that their credit will never be paid back. Another difficulty for the rural banks is that loans cannot be processed so easily. Processing loans also entails heavy expenditure.

Explanation

The passage mentions that the Steering Committee of the Regional Rural Banks considered structural changes in staffing, effective coordination among banks, and providing access to weaker sections. This implies that the changes made by the committee were related to staffing, coordinating, and providing access to weaker sections.

49. In a certain code 'RAISE' is coded as 'FTJBS' and 'LEASE' is coded as 'F'TBFM'. How will 'FLOWN' be coded in the same code?

Explanation

The code follows a pattern where each letter in the word is shifted forward by a certain number of positions in the English alphabet. In the word 'RAISE', each letter is shifted forward by 1 position to get 'FTJBS'. Similarly, in the word 'LEASE', each letter is shifted forward by 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 positions respectively to get 'FTBFM'. Applying the same pattern to the word 'FLOWN', each letter should be shifted forward by 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 positions respectively. Therefore, the correct code for 'FLOWN' would be 'OXPMG'.

50. The ratio of income and expenditure of a person is 11 : 10. If he saves Rs. 9,000 per annum, his monthly income is 

Explanation

Let's assume the income of the person is 11x and the expenditure is 10x. We are given that the person saves Rs. 9,000 per annum, which means the savings are equal to the difference between income and expenditure. So, 11x - 10x = 9,000. Simplifying this equation, we get x = 9,000. Therefore, the monthly income would be 11x/12 = (11*9,000)/12 = Rs. 8,250.

55. The age of father 10 years ago was thrice the age of his son. Ten years hence, father's age will be twice that of his son. The ratio of their present ages is?

Explanation

Ten years ago, let's assume the father's age was F and the son's age was S. According to the given information, F-10 = 3(S-10).
Ten years hence, the father's age will be F+10 and the son's age will be S+10. According to the given information, F+10 = 2(S+10).
Simplifying the equations, we get F = 3S-20 and F = 2S+10.
Solving these equations, we find that S = 10 and F = 40.
Therefore, the ratio of their present ages is 40:10, which simplifies to 7:3.

59. Rajan got married 8 years ago. His present age is 6 / 5 times his age at the time of his marriage. Rajan's sister was 10 years younger to him at the time of his marriage. The age of Rajan's sister is?

Explanation

At the time of Rajan's marriage, his present age is 6/5 times his age at the time of his marriage. Let's assume his age at the time of his marriage is x. Therefore, his present age would be 6/5 * x.

Given that Rajan's sister was 10 years younger than him at the time of his marriage, her age would be x - 10.

Since Rajan's present age is 6/5 * x, we can set up the equation: 6/5 * x = x - 10.

Simplifying the equation, we get 6x = 5x - 50. Solving for x, we find that x = 50.

Therefore, Rajan's sister's age at present would be 50 - 10 = 40 years.

Hence, the correct answer is not available.

Explanation

When the length of a rectangle is increased by 10% and its breadth is decreased by 10%, the change in its area can be calculated by multiplying the new length by the new breadth. Let's assume the original length is 10 units and the original breadth is 5 units. After the changes, the new length would be 11 units (10% increase) and the new breadth would be 4.5 units (10% decrease). The new area would be 11 units multiplied by 4.5 units, which equals 49.5 square units. Comparing this to the original area of 10 units multiplied by 5 units, which equals 50 square units, we can see that the change in area is a decrease of 1%.

70. Cause:
  • The Govt has recently increased its taxes on petrol  and diesel by about 10 per cent.
  Which of the following can be a possible effect of the above cause?

Explanation

The increase in taxes on petrol and diesel by the government will lead to higher costs for petroleum companies. In order to maintain their profit margins, the companies may choose to pass on some of these increased costs to the consumers by raising the prices of petrol and diesel. However, the increase in prices may not be as high as the 10% increase in taxes, and it is likely to be around 5% instead. Therefore, the possible effect of the cause is that the petroleum companies will increase the prices of petrol and diesel by about 5%.

Explanation

The average of the first five numbers is given as 69. This means that the sum of the first five numbers is 69 multiplied by 5, which equals 345. The average of all six numbers is given as 72. Since the sum of the first five numbers is 345, the sum of all six numbers must be 72 multiplied by 6, which equals 432. To find the value of the sixth number, we subtract the sum of the first five numbers (345) from the sum of all six numbers (432). Therefore, the value of the sixth number is 432 - 345 = 87.

82. Find out the compound interest on an amount of Rs.56500 at the end of two years if the simple interest on the same amount is 18080 at the end of four years?

Explanation

In this question, we are given the simple interest on a certain amount for four years and we need to find the compound interest on the same amount for two years. To find compound interest, we need to use the formula A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where A is the final amount, P is the principal amount, r is the rate of interest, n is the number of times interest is compounded per year, and t is the time in years. Given that the simple interest is 18080 at the end of four years, we can calculate the rate of interest using the formula SI = P * r * t / 100. By substituting the values, we find that the rate of interest is 8%. Now, we can calculate the compound interest using the formula A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt). By substituting the values, we find that the compound interest is 9402. Therefore, the correct answer is 9402.

88. Effect:
  • Majority of the employees of the ailing organisation opted for voluntary retirement scheme and left the organisation with all their retirement benefits within a fortnight of launching the scheme.
  Which of the following can be a probable cause of the above effect?

Explanation

The correct answer is that the company has been making huge losses for the past five years and is unable to pay salary to its employees in time. This is the most likely cause for the majority of employees opting for the voluntary retirement scheme and leaving the organization with their retirement benefits. The financial instability of the company and the inability to pay salaries would have created a sense of insecurity among the employees, leading them to choose the retirement scheme as a way to secure their financial future.

  • Poverty measurement is an unsettled issue, both conceptually and methodologically. Since poverty is a process as well as an outcome, many come out of it while others may be falling into it. The net effect of these two parallel processes is a proportion commonly identified as the 'head count ratio', but these ratios hide the fundamental dynamism that characterises poverty in practice. The most recent poverty re-estimates by an expert group has also missed the crucial dynamism. In a study conducted on 13,000 households which represented the entire country in 1993-94 and again in 2004-OS, it was found that in the ten-year period 18.2% rural population moved out of poverty whereas another 22.1 % fell into it over this period. This net jncrease of about four percentage points was seen to have a considerable variation across states and regions.
Which of the following is an inference which can be made from the facts stated in the above paragraph?

Explanation

The paragraph states that in a study conducted over a ten-year period, 18.2% of the rural population moved out of poverty while another 22.1% fell into it. This indicates that the increase in the number of people falling into poverty varies considerably across the country over a period of time. Therefore, the correct inference is that the increase in the number of persons falling into poverty varies considerably across the country over a period of time.

93. 7         8          18         57         ?        1165     6996 

Explanation

The pattern in the given sequence is not immediately clear. However, upon closer inspection, we can see that each number in the sequence is obtained by multiplying the previous number by a prime number and then adding the square of the same prime number. For example, 7*2 + 2^2 = 18, 18*3 + 3^2 = 57, and so on. Applying the same pattern, we can find the missing number by multiplying 57 by 5 and then adding 5^2. Thus, the missing number is 57*5 + 5^2 = 232.

94. Find out the ratio of length and the area of a rectangle if the ratio of length& perimeter of rectangle is 1:6 and the area of rectangle is 5000sq.m ?

Explanation

The ratio of length to perimeter of a rectangle is 1:6. The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by adding the lengths of all four sides. Since the ratio of length to perimeter is 1:6, it means that the length is 1/7th of the perimeter. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying its length and width. In this case, the length is 1/7th of the perimeter, so the width must be 6/7th of the perimeter. Therefore, the ratio of length to width is 1:6/7, which simplifies to 1:6/7 or 1:100.

95. 8424          4212         ?         1056.5          530.25          267.125 

Explanation

The given sequence is formed by dividing each number by 4 and subtracting 2. Starting with 8424, we divide it by 4 and subtract 2 to get 2103. Continuing this pattern, we divide 4212 by 4 and subtract 2 to get 1053, and so on. Therefore, the missing number in the sequence is 2109.
