Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
I was on a visit to Calcutta. It was Saturday, and I was staying for the weekend at my cousin's. That evening, my cousin, who works for a firm, had to fly to Delhi for a meeting. So, his wife drove him to the airport, and I accompanied them. On our way back from the airport, we stopped by a lake. My cousin's wife said, "Let me show you where we spend some of our evenings." She locked the car, and we began to walk towards the lake. There was a small bridge to cross, and she led the way. Three young men were coming from the other end of the bridge. As they approached us, one of them said to me, "Can I have a match?" As I put my hand into my pocket for the matchbox, I heard a cry of alarm. And then I saw what was happening. One of the other two men had snatched the handbag from my cousin's wife and passed it on to the man next to him. He in turn passed it to the third man, and all three started running back to where they had come from. My cousin's wife kept shouting and hurling abuse at them but made no attempt to follow them to retrieve her bag. I wanted to chase them, but she stopped me, saying that such rogues could be armed and dangerous. As it was dark, the three men were soon out of sight. I felt sorry for not being of any help, but my cousin's wife assured me that there was no money or valuables in the bag. She had just kept a couple of apples and a packet of biscuits in the handbag in case I felt hungry.

Question : Directions: Which of the following numbers will replace the question mark (?) in the given series? $\frac{-1}{729},\frac{-1}{81},\frac{-1}{9},?$
Option 1: 1
Option 2: –1
Option 3: $\frac{-1}{3}$
Option 4: $\frac{1}{3}$
Correct Answer: –1
Solution : Given: $\frac{-1}{729},\frac{-1}{81},\frac{-1}{9},?$
Multiply the previous term by 9 to obtain the missing term. $\frac{-1}{729}×9=\frac{-1}{81};\frac{-1}{81}×9=\frac{-1}{9};\frac{-1}{9}×9=-1$
So, –1 is the missing term in the given series. Hence, the second option is correct.
Question : Directions: The following table gives details about the percentage change in the population in a particular town for given years. Go through the chart given and answer the questions that follow:
What was the percentage increase in the population of the town from 2005 to 2008?
Option 1: 19%
Option 2: 33.33%
Option 3: 22.6%
Option 4: Can not be determined.
Correct Answer: 22.6%
Solution : Percentage increase in population in 2005 = 6% Percentage increase in population in 2006 = 3% Single increase percentage = $6+3+\frac{6×3}{100}=9.18$% Percentage increase in population in 2007 = 4% Single increase percentage of 9.18% and 4% = $9.18+4+\frac{9.18×4}{100}=13.55$% Percentage increase in population in 2008 =
Question : The earth rotates on its axis at an inclination of
Option 1: 23 1/2 degree
Option 2: 22 1/2 degree
Option 3: 21 1/2 degree
Option 4: 20 degree
Correct Answer: 23 1/2 degree
Solution : The correct answer is 23.5 degree.
Earth' axis of rotation is inclined at 23.5 degree from its orbital plane. Although this inclination varies slightly because of the gravitational attraction of sun and moon. This is responsible for the weather phenomenons on earth and

Question : The population of a city increases compounded by 10% annually. The present population of this city is 1,33,100. What was the population of the city 2 years ago?
Option 1: 1,01,000
Option 2: 1,10,000
Option 3: 1,21,000
Option 4: 1,00,000
Correct Answer: 1,10,000
Solution : $P=P{_0}×(1+r)^t$ where: $P$ is the present population, $P{_0}$ is the past population, $r$ is the annual growth rate (as a decimal), and $t$ is the number of years. Given, $P{_0} = 133,100$ $r = 10\%$ We have to find the population 2 years ago ($t=−2$
Question : The difference between the areas of two concentric circles is 264 cm2. What is the difference between the square of their radius? (use $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$)
Option 1: 70
Option 2: 140
Option 3: 84
Option 4: 64
Correct Answer: 84
Solution : Given: The difference between the areas of two concentric circles is 264 cm2. The area of the circle $=\pi R^2$ where $R$ is the radius. According to the question, $\pi R^2–\pi r^2=264$ ⇒ $\frac{22}{7}\times(R^2–r^2)=264$ ⇒ $(R^2–r^2)=\frac{264\times 7}{22}$ ⇒ $R^2–r^2=\frac{1848}{22}=84$ Hence, the correct answer
Question : Directions: Four words have been given out of which three are alike in some manner, while one is different. Choose the odd one.
