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 : Which of the following is the most problematic and primary difficulty of barter exchanges as against money-based exchanges?
Option 1: Bartered exchanges involve difficulty in preserving value.
Option 2: Barter exchanges may result in an incorrect valuation of the goods transacted.
Option 3: Barter exchanges may be imperfectly divisible.
Option 4: Barter exchanges require a double coincidence of wants.
Correct Answer: Barter exchanges require a double coincidence of wants.
Solution : The correct option is Barter exchanges require a double coincidence of wants.
The most problematic and primary difficulty of barter exchanges compared to money-based exchanges is the requirement of a double coincidence of wants. In barter, both
Question : Directions: A sentence or a part of the sentence is printed in bold. Below are given alternatives to the bold part that may improve the sentence. Choose the correct alternative. In case no improvement is needed, choose "No Improvement".
The doctor scribbled his prescription, which I could not make out.
(1) make over
(2) make up
(3) make for
(4) No Improvement
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (4)
Solution : The fourth option is the correct choice.
The original sentence is correct and conveys the intended meaning that the doctor wrote his prescription in a way that was difficult for the person to decipher or understand.
Therefore, the given sentence requires no improvement.
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.
Option 1: Stars
Option 2: Planets
Option 3: Galaxies
Option 4: Rockets
Correct Answer: Rockets
Solution : Let's check each option – First option: Stars→The heavenly bodies of the Universe. Second option: Planets→The heavenly bodies of the Universe. Third option: Galaxies→The heavenly bodies of the Universe. Fourth option: Rockets→ It is a man–made structure.
So, only the fourth option is different from
Question : A can do in one day three times the work done by B in one day. They together finish $\frac{2}{5}$th of the work in 9 days. The number of days by which B can do the work alone is:
Option 1: 90 days
Option 2: 120 days
Option 3: 100 days
Option 4: 30 days
Correct Answer: 90 days
Solution : Given: A can do in one day three times the work done by B in one day. They together finish $\frac{2}{5}$th of the work in 9 days. Let the efficiency of B = $a$ units, So, the efficiency of A = 3$a$ units Here,
