Question : The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.

When the train pulled in / at the station, it take / Joseph some time / to get off.

Option 1: When the train pulled in

Option 2: at the station, it take

Option 3: Joseph some time

Option 4: to get off.

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: at the station, it take


Solution : The segment that contains a grammatical error is the second option.

Explanation: The error lies in the tense consistency as per zero conditional. The correct form should be "it took" instead of "it take". In this context, took is the correct verb form to indicate that the action took place in the past as the subordinate clause is also in the past tense to maintain tense consistency.

So, the correct sentence would be: "When the train pulled in at the station, it takes Joseph some time to get off."

Question : Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence.

I'm so hungry I could eat lots of food.

Option 1: like a horse

Option 2: sour grapes

Option 3: a horse

Option 4: poison

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: a horse


Solution : The third option is correct.

The phrase eat a horse is an idiom used to express an intense or voracious appetite. When someone says they can eat a horse, it means they are very hungry or can consume a significant amount of food, similar to the way horses are often depicted as eating large amounts.

In the given context, it seems like the person is very hungry. Hence, it is the most appropriate choice to complete the sentence.

Question : Given below are four sentences, three of which, are jumbled. Pick the option that gives the correct order.

A. The shelves in the library were filled with thick volumes: dictionaries, encyclopedias and other reference books.
B. This shelf was quite high and out of his reach, so he had to fetch a ladder to pick a book that interested him.
C. Ritesh found nothing that interested him, until he came to a small section on photography, which was one of his hobbies.
D. Unfortunately, as he was climbing down the ladder, the book that he had chosen slipped from his hand and fell with a loud thud.

Option 1: ACBD

Option 2: ABCD

Option 3: ABDC

Option 4: ADBC

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: ACBD


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

The sequence begins with a general description of the library shelves filled with various books, establishing the setting in sentence A. It then shifts to Ritesh's search for an interesting book, leading to the discovery of a small section on photography, a topic that aligns with his hobbies in sentence C. The narrative continues in sentence B as Ritesh, unable to reach a high shelf, fetches a ladder to select a book. The paragraph concludes with sentence D, which explains, that as he descends the ladder, the chosen book slips from his hand, creating a dramatic moment with a loud thud. The order effectively moves from the broader context of the library to Ritesh's specific exploration and, finally in, an unexpected event, creating a coherent and engaging flow of information.

Question : The side of an equilateral triangle is 12 cm. What is the radius of the circle circumscribing this equilateral triangle?

Option 1: $6 \sqrt{3}\ \text{cm}$

Option 2: $4\sqrt{3}\ \text{cm}$

Option 3: $9 \sqrt{3}\ \text{cm}$

Option 4: $5\sqrt{3}\ \text{cm}$

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $4\sqrt{3}\ \text{cm}$


Solution : Given: Side of the equilateral triangle = 12 cm
We know that,
The radius of a circle circumscribing in an equilateral triangle
= $\frac{\text{side}}{\sqrt3}$
= $\frac{12}{\sqrt3}$
= $4\sqrt3\ \text{cm}$
Hence, the correct answer is $4\sqrt3\ \text{cm}$.

Question : Directions: In the given figure, how many papers are also hard?

Option 1: 14

Option 2: 23

Option 3: 37

Option 4: 32

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 23


Solution : In the below diagram, the shaded part represents papers that are also hard. The numbers of the asked fields that fall in the region of brown will also be counted as there is no direction given that the region belonging to brown can not be included.

So, Papers that are also hard→14 + 9 = 23

Therefore, the papers that are also hard is 23. Hence, the second option is correct.

Question : Directions: In the following question, four number pairs are given. In each pair, the number on the left side of (–) is related to the number on the right side of (–) with some Logic/Rule /Relation. Three pairs are similar based on the same Logic/Rule/Relation. Select the odd one out from the given alternatives. (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: 225 – 5733

Option 2: 169 – 7912

Option 3: 361 – 9786

Option 4: 289 – 3194

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 361 – 9786


Solution : Let's check each option –
First option: 225 : 5733; 225 = 152 and 5733 on reversing it gives 3375 = 153
Second option: 169 : 7912; 169 = 132 and 7912 on reversing it gives 2197 = 133
Third option: 361 : 9786; 361 = 192 and 9785 on reversing it gives 5879 ≠ 6859 = 193
Fourth option: 289 : 3194; 289 = 172 and 3194 on reversing it gives 4913 = 173

So, only the third option is different from the other three options as 9785 on reversing, it gives 9586 ≠ 193. Hence, the third option is correct.​​​​​​

Option 1:

Option 2:

Option 3:

Option 4:

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer:


Solution : In a 3D view of dice,
1. Each face out of the three faces in the 3D view should be from all the pairs.
2. Two opposite faces cannot appear adjacently in the 3D view of a folded cube figure. So, the opposite pairs of faces are as follows –

Based on the above diagram and rules, the following image can be formed –

Hence, the first option is correct.

Question : Select the most appropriate meaning of the given idiom.

Scrape the barrel

Option 1: Trying to find something

Option 2: Hiding something

Option 4: To be forced to use one's last and weakest resource

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: To be forced to use one's last and weakest resource


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

The idiom, scrape the barrel is used when you've exhausted all other options and have to resort to your last and often less favourable choice or resource. It's not about trying to find something, hiding something, or using all possible ways; it's specifically about using your last and weakest resource.
