Question : Direction: Study the bar graph given below, which shows the percent distribution of total expenditures of a company under various expenses, and answer the question.
If the total expenditure of the company is INR 20 crores, then the ratio of expenditure on transport to that on salary is:
Option 1: 5 : 4
Option 2: 4 : 5
Option 3: 5 : 8
Option 4: 8 : 5
Correct Answer: 5 : 8
Solution : The total expenditure of the company is INR 20 crores. Expenditure on transport = 12.5% = $\frac{12.5}{100} \times 2000000$ = 250000 Expenditure on salary = $\frac{20}{100} \times 2000000$ = 400000 The ratio of transport costs to salary = 250000 : 400000 = 5

Question : If $\frac{P}{2}=\frac{Q}{5}=\frac{R}{6}$, then what is the value of $P^2:(P+Q)^2:(Q+R)^2$?
Option 1: 10 : 56 : 169
Option 2: 4 : 49 : 121
Option 3: 9 : 64 : 144
Option 4: 16 : 10 : 125
Correct Answer: 4 : 49 : 121
Solution : Given: The expression is $\frac{P}{2}=\frac{Q}{5}=\frac{R}{6}$. Let $\frac{P}{2}=\frac{Q}{5}=\frac{R}{6}=k$. ⇒ $P=2k, Q=5k, R=6k$ The value of $P^2:(P+Q)^2:(Q+R)^2$ $=(2k)^2:(2k+5k)^2:(5k+6k)^2$ $=4k^2:(7k)^2:(11k)^2$ $=4k^2:49k^2:121k^2$ $=4:49:121$ Hence, the correct answer is 4 : 49 : 121.
Question : Direction: In this question, a word is represented by only one set of numbers as given in any one of the alternatives. The sets of numbers given in the alternatives are represented by two classes of alphabets as in the two matrices, given below. The columns and rows of Matrix (I) are numbered from 0 to 4 and that of Matrix (II) are numbered from 5 to 9. A letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row and next by its column, e.g. 'A' can be represented by 02,10, etc., and 'B' can be represented by 57, 65, etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word.

Question : Directions: In the following number pairs, the second number is obtained by applying certain mathematical operations on the first number. Select the option in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following pairs. (16, 107); (12, 79) (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.)
Option 1: (8, 92)
Option 2: (11, 61)
Option 3: (9, 58)
Option 4: (15, 94)
Correct Answer: (9, 58)
Solution : Given: (16, 107); (12, 79)
The pattern is as follows – (16, 107)→(16 × 7) – 5 = 112 – 5 = 107 (12, 79)→(12 × 7) – 5 = 84 – 5 = 79 Let's check the options – First option: (8, 92)→(8
Question : The bar graph given here shows the data on the production of cars by three different companies X, Y, and Z over the years. The average production for 5 years was the maximum for which company/companies?
Option 1: Y and Z
Option 2: Y
Option 3: X and Y
Option 4: X and Z
Correct Answer: X and Z
Solution : According to the question, Total production of company X over 5 years = 30 + 45 + 25 + 50 + 40 = 190 Average production over 5 years = $\frac{190}{5}$ = 38 cars Total production of company Y over 5 years =
