2) q = 18
...
!
!
2) If statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient to answer
the question
...
!
!
4) If EACH statement ALONE is sufficient to answer the question asked
...
!
!
!
Correct Option is: ! 3!
Explanation: ! 1
...
!
2
...
!
By using both 1 and 2,we can find whether q is a mutiple of r
...
!
An experiment succeeds twice as often as it fails
...
!
i
...
the probability of its success is 2/3 and the probability of its failure is 1/3
...
!
4 out of the 5 trials in which it succeeds could be selected in 5C4 ways = 5 ways
...
!
Hence, the required probability = 5*((2/3)^4)*(1/3)!
!
3
...
Of the total number of X tickets and Y tickets, what
percentage was purchased?!
1) The total number of X tickets and Y tickets, is 240
...
!
!
!
1) If statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient to answer
the question
...
!
!
3) If BOTH statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are sufficient to answer the question asked,
but NEITHER statement ALONE is sufficient
...
!
!
5) If statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient to answer the question asked,
and additional data specific to the problem are needed
...
We have to find purchase
percentage
...
So option 3 is the correct answer!
!
4
...
His brother does not
agree with Arun and he thinks that Arun's weight is greater than 60 kg but less than 70 kg
...
If all are them are correct in their
estimation, what is the average of different probable weights of Arun?!
!
!
1) 67 kg!
!
2) 76 kg!
!
3) 77 kg!
!
4) 66 kg!
!
!
Correct Option is: ! 1!
Explanation: ! Let Arun's weight is X
...
!
The values satisfying all the above conditions are 66,67 and 68
...
!
Therefore,option 1 is the correct answer
...
!
What is the value of 1*1! + 2*2! + 3!*3! +
...
1
...
!
...
!
n*n!= ((n+1)-1)*n!=(n+1)*n!-n!=(n+1)!-n!!
Summing up all these terms,we get!
(n+1)!-1!!
Hence,option 1 is the correct answer
...
!
Shyam can do a job in 20 days, Ram in 30 days and Singhal in 60 days
...
!
Therefore,the amount of work done in 3 days by Shyam,Ram and Singhal is!
= 3/20 + 1/30 + 1/60 = 1/5 of the job
...

A plane flying east at the
same attitude passes over the same city at 12
...
The plane is flying east at 400 kmph
...
It travels at 500
kmph
...
The
plane flying east would have traveled for 1
...
It travels at 400 kmph
...
5*400 = 600 kms from the city at 2 PM
...
The shortest distance between the two planes is the length of
the hypotenuse of the right triangle whose legs are the distances covered by the two planes

! In 2011, the arithmetic mean of the annual incomes of Ramesh and Suresh was Rs
...
The arithmetic mean of the annual incomes of Suresh and Pratap was Rs
...
5800
...
!
Therefore,!
(a+b)/2 = 3800!
a+b = 7600 --- (1)!
(b+c)/2 = 4800!
b+c = 9600 --- (2)!
(a+c)/2 = 5800!
a+c = 11600 --- (3)!
By adding (1),(2), and (3),we get,!
a+b+b+c+a+c = 7600+9600+11600!
2(a+b+c) = 28800!
a+b+c = 14400
...
Therefore,option 4 is the correct answer
...

...
! Ram covers a part of the journey at 20 kmph and the balance at 70 kmph taking total of 8
hours to cover the distance of 400 km
...
!
Distance covered in this x hours = 20x km!
He would have therefore, travelled the balance (8?x) hours at 70 kmph

!
1) 18!
!
2) 19!
!
3) 20!
!
4) 21!
!
!

No of
possibilities = 5! / 3!*2! = 10!
Six 2's and one 3 - The first 5 digits should all be 2's

...
The first boy starts with
the first line, writing at the rate of 100 lines an hour; and the second starts with the last line then
writes line 534 and so on, backward proceeding at the rate of 50 lines an hour

...
There are 5 different toppings
...
! Tarun invited 750 persons to a party

e 726/7 remainder 5!
so already we have 6 members short and now 5 more!
6 + 5 = 11
...
!
!
27
...
On the 15th
span he does a quick calculation and finds out that the number 12 had appeared twice in the 14
spans and is therefore, unable to decide whether to bet on 16 or 12 in the 15th span
...
!
So, either 16 or 12 and odd is 35:1
...
!
!
28
...
!
no
...
of A = 2!
no
...
of E = 2!
and others appear only once
...
of ways to arrange these 10 letters = 10! / [ 2! * 2! * 2! * 2!]!
now, assume that two A i
...
!
no
...
of ways of arrangement where two 'A' do not come together = 226800-45360!
= (10! / [ 2! * 2! * 2! * 2!] - 9! / [ 2! * 2! * 2! ])!
!
29

The opposite of this situation is that none of the four shots hit the aircraft
...
7)(1-0
...
5)
(1-0
...
3◊0
...
5◊0
...
036 So, the probability that at least one of the four hits the aircraft: =1?
0
...
964!
