Question : A radio dealer sold a radio at a loss of 2.5%. Had he sold it for Rs. 100 more, he would have gained $7\frac{1}{2}$%. In order to gain $12\frac{1}{2}$% he should sell it for_______
Option 1: Rs. 1080
Option 2: Rs. 1125
Option 3: Rs. 850
Option 4: Rs. 925
Correct Answer: Rs. 1125
Solution : Here, the cost price is denoted by CP and SP denotes the selling price. If the CP of the radio is Rs. $x$, then Difference in the profits = Difference in respective selling price ⇒ 2.5% of $x$ + 7.5% of $x$ = Rs.
Question : Directions: Select the option related to the fifth number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the fourth number is related to the third number. 18 : 190 :: 20 : 210 :: 22 : ?
Option 1: 230
Option 2: 210
Option 3: 190
Option 4: 200
Correct Answer: 230
Solution : Given: 18 : 190 :: 20 : 210 :: 22 : ?
The first number is multiplied by 10, and then 10 is added to the resultant, to obtain the second number in each number pair – Like, 18 : 190→18 : 18 × 10
Question : Directions: In a certain code language, BRIGHT is written as TTKIJB, and ROAST is written as TQCUR. How will AROUND be written in that language?
Option 1: DTQWPA
Option 2: RTQWPF
Option 3: TTQWRD
Option 4: CTQWPF
Correct Answer: DTQWPA
Solution : Given: BRIGHT is written as TTKIJB, and ROAST is written as TQCUR.
Interchange the place of the first and last letter and add 2 to the place value of the remaining middle letters to obtain the required code – Thus, BRIGHT is coded as TTKIJB.
Question : Comprehension: Read the following passage and answer the questions. As I turned to the main road, my smartphone rang. I looked at the car's dashboard display for a fraction of a second to see the caller's name while I reflexively whirled the wheel around the street corner. The brief lapse in concentration was enough to miss a biker. Fortunately, both of us stopped at the right time but he ranted expletives at my family, particularly the women. Undeterred, I opened the window, smiled at him and said, "I am sorry." He immediately paused, and then just advised me kindly to look on all sides of the road while driving.
That is the power of the unique and wonderful act called smile. It can break barriers and bridge chasms. The power of the smile is often underestimated by us. Despite being the only species with this graceful expression, humans do not comprehend the myriad strengths of a smile and often forget to use it.
Just like the innumerable gifts of nature which we have taken for granted, I had missed the influence of a smile in my early years. The awakening occurred in my early twenties when I worked as a junior doctor in a hospital. We, a group of doctors, were having coffee together, one of the senior doctors told me, "You seemed to have missed an important developmental milestone."
Developmental milestone refers to various social, motor and vocal skills which a child acquires at each period of its development in infancy and childhood such as rolling over, standing and speaking. To my despair, he declared, "You haven't got your social smile yet." While I considered myself a pleasant person, his harsh comment rather irked me.
At three to four months of age, a growing child starts recognising familiar faces and in an attempt to interact with them, it expresses the social smile. It is typically towards the parents, grandparents and siblings initially, and then slowly extends towards other familiar faces. It is nature's evolutionary attempt to increase the bonding between humans. It is a way of expression to pronounce one's affability. But somewhere during our growth and interaction with society, we have been taught directly or indirectly that strangers are not to be smiled at. After long days of introspection, I made it a point to reclaim my lost milestone.
Question: "That is the power...". What power is being referred to here?
Option 1: The power of a smart phone over human beings.
Option 2: The power of a car driver over a biker.
Option 3: The power of a distracted moment.
Option 4: The power of a smile to resolve issues.
Correct Answer: The power of a smile to resolve issues.
Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.
The phrase that is the power... refers to the power of a smile to resolve issues. The passage emphasises the ability of a smile to break barriers, bridge gaps, and defuse
Question : Comprehension: In the following passage, some words have been deleted. Read the passage carefully and select the most appropriate option to fill in each blank. The saving of certain wild animals from extinction (1)__________ many years been a problem for zoologists and other specialists, but more recently, the problem has become so (2)_________ and has received so much publicity that most people are now (3)__________ about it. This may at first seem strange because one of the most gratifying developments of the last few years has been the passing of strict laws to protect wild animals and the (4)__________ decline in the hunting of big-game for sport. Why is it then that some rare wild animals are still (5)__________ with extinction, and even some of the less rare ones are rapidly declining in number? Question: Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank 5.
Option 1: danger
Option 2: frighten
Option 3: bullied
Option 4: threatened
Correct Answer: threatened
Solution : The most appropriate option is the fourth option.

Question : $7 \sin ^2 A+3 \cos ^2 A=4$, then find $\cot A$:
Option 1: $\sqrt{3}$
Option 2: $\sqrt{2}$
Option 3: $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
Option 4: $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
Correct Answer: $\sqrt{3}$
Solution : $7 \sin ^2 A+3 \cos ^2 A=4$ $7 \sin ^2 A+3(1-\sin ^2 A)=4$ $7 \sin ^2 A+3-3 \sin ^2 A=4$ $4 \sin ^2 A=1$ $ \sin ^2 A=\frac{1}{4}$ $ \sin A=\frac{1}{2}$ $\therefore A = 30^{\circ}$ $\cot A = \cot 30^{\circ} = \sqrt3 $ Hence, the

Question : The line chart given below shows the production of bikes and trucks by five companies L, M, N, O, and P. Which of the following statements is correct? I. The ratio of the production of bikes to the production of trucks by company M is 7 : 4. II. The difference between the average production of bikes and trucks by all companies is 10.
Option 1: Neither I nor II
Option 2: Only II
Option 3: Only I
Option 4: Both I and II
Correct Answer: Both I and II
Solution : Production of the bike by company M = 350 Production of the truck by company M = 200 I. The ratio of the production of bikes to the production of trucks by company M is 7 : 4. Statement I is correct.
Question : In a big garden, 60% of the trees are coconut trees, 25% of the coconut trees are mango trees and 20% of the mango trees are apple trees. If the number of apple trees is 1500, the number of trees in the garden is:
Option 1: 48000
Option 2: 50000
Option 3: 51000
Option 4: 45000
Correct Answer: 50000
Solution : Let us assume that the total number of trees in the garden is 100 units. Coconut trees = 60 units Mango trees = 60 × 0.25 = 15 units Apple trees = 15 × 0.2 = 3 units As per the question, 3 units =
