Q86

General Intelligence & ReasoningPercentage

A student has to secure $40\%$ marks to pass an examination. He gets $80$ marks and fails by $40$ marks. What are the maximum marks of the examination?

💡Correct Answer: Option B (300)

Let the maximum marks be

M

. Passing marks required =

80 + 40 = 120

. Since passing percentage is

40\%

, we have:

0.40 \times M = 120 \implies M = \frac{120}{0.40} = 300

. Therefore, maximum marks are

300

.

Q87

General Intelligence & ReasoningRatio & Proportion

If $A:B = 2:3$ and $B:C = 4:5$ , what is the ratio $A:B:C$ ?

💡Correct Answer: Option A (8:12:15)

To merge the ratios, make the term

B

common. Multiply

A:B

by

4

(giving

8:12

) and multiply

B:C

by

3

(giving

12:15

). Hence,

A:B:C = 8:12:15

.

Q88

General Intelligence & ReasoningAverage

The average of $5$ numbers is $20$ . If a new number is added, the average of these $6$ numbers becomes $22$ . What is the value of the added number?

💡Correct Answer: Option C (32)

Sum of original

5

numbers =

5 \times 20 = 100

.
Sum of

6

numbers (including new one) =

6 \times 22 = 132

.
The added number is

132 - 100 = 32

.

Q89

General Intelligence & ReasoningProfit & Loss

A shopkeeper sells an article for $\text{Rs. } 540$ at a loss of $10\%$ . At what price should he sell the article to gain $10\%$ ?

💡Correct Answer: Option D (Rs. 660)

Selling Price (

SP_1

) =

\text{Rs. } 540

at

10\%

loss.
This means

SP_1 = 90\%

of Cost Price (

CP

).

0.90 \times CP = 540 \implies CP = \frac{540}{0.90} = 600

.
To gain

10\%

, the new selling price (

SP_2

) must be:

SP_2 = 1.10 \times CP = 1.10 \times 600 = 660

.

Q90

General Intelligence & ReasoningTime & Work

$A$ can do a piece of work in $12$ days, and $B$ can do the same work in $18$ days. Working together, in how many days can they complete the work?

💡Correct Answer: Option B (7.2 days)

Let total work be

\text{LCM}(12, 18) = 36

units.
Efficiency of

A = \frac{36}{12} = 3

units/day.
Efficiency of

B = \frac{36}{18} = 2

units/day.
Combined efficiency of

A

and

B = 3 + 2 = 5

units/day.
Time taken working together =

\frac{36}{5} = 7.2

days.

Q91

General Intelligence & ReasoningSimple Interest

What sum of money will amount to $\text{Rs. } 520$ in $5$ years and to $\text{Rs. } 568$ in $7$ years at the same rate of simple interest?

💡Correct Answer: Option B (Rs. 400)

Amount in

7

years =

P + 7I = 568

.
Amount in

5

years =

P + 5I = 520

.
Subtracting the two equations:

2I = 48 \implies I = 24

per year.
Simple interest for

5

years =

5 \times 24 = 120

.
Principal (

P

) =

\text{Amount in } 5 \text{ years} - \text{Interest for } 5 \text{ years} = 520 - 120 = 400

.

Q92

General Intelligence & ReasoningSpeed, Time & Distance

A train running at a speed of $90 \text{ km/h}$ crosses a utility pole in $10 \text{ seconds}$ . What is the length of the train in meters?

💡Correct Answer: Option C (250 m)

Speed in m/s =

90 \times \frac{5}{18} = 25 \text{ m/s}

.
Time taken to cross the pole =

10 \text{ s}

.
Length of the train =

\text{Speed} \times \text{Time} = 25 \text{ m/s} \times 10 \text{ s} = 250 \text{ meters}

.

Q93

General Intelligence & ReasoningNumber Series

Complete the following number series: $3, 8, 15, 24, 35, \text{?}$

💡Correct Answer: Option C (48)

The pattern of differences between consecutive terms is:

8 - 3 = 5

15 - 8 = 7

24 - 15 = 9

35 - 24 = 11

The difference is increasing by

2

each time (

5, 7, 9, 11

). The next difference should be

13

.
So, next term =

35 + 13 = 48

.

Q94

General Intelligence & ReasoningBlood Relations

Pointing to a photograph, a man said: 'I have no brother or sister, but that man's father is my father's son.' Whose photograph was it?

Q95

General Intelligence & ReasoningCoding-Decoding

If in a certain code, 'CAT' is written as '3120', how will the word 'DOG' be written in that code?

💡Correct Answer: Option A (4157)

The code is written by substituting each letter with its corresponding alphabetical position:

C = 3, A = 1, T = 20 \implies 3120

.
For

DOG

:

D = 4, O = 15, G = 7 \implies 4157

.

Q96

General Intelligence & ReasoningDirection Sense

A man walks $5 \text{ km}$ towards South, then turns right and walks $3 \text{ km}$ . He then turns left and walks $5 \text{ km}$ . In which direction is he now from his starting point?

💡Correct Answer: Option B (South-West)

Let starting point be

(0,0)

.
1. Walks

5 \text{ km}

South

\implies (0, -5)

.
2. Turns right (West) and walks

3 \text{ km} \implies (-3, -5)

.
3. Turns left (South) and walks

5 \text{ km} \implies (-3, -10)

.
The point

(-3, -10)

lies in the South-West quadrant relative to

(0,0)

.

Q99

Basic MathematicsProblems on Ages

The ratio of the current ages of a father and his son is $7:3$ . If the son is currently $21$ years old, what will be the age of the father after $5$ years?

💡Correct Answer: Option C (54 years)

Let father's age be

7x

and son's age be

3x

. Given son's age

3x = 21 \implies x = 7

.
Therefore, father's current age =

7x = 7 \times 7 = 49

years.
Father's age after

5

years =

49 + 5 = 54

years.
