Answers & Solutions:
1) Answer (D)
The number of female subscribers in 2011 is 220.
So, number of female subscribers who quit is 220/4 = 55.
Hence, the new female subscribers in the year 2012 is 264-220+55 = 99
2) Answer (D)
The number of female subscribers in 2011 is 220.
So, a number of female subscribers who quit is 220/4 = 55.
Hence, the new female subscribers in the year 2012 is 264-220+55 = 99
3) Answer (D)
The number of female subscribers in 2011 is 220.
So, a number of female subscribers who quit is 220/4 = 55.
Hence, the new female subscribers in the year 2012 is 264-220+55 = 99
4) Answer (A)
Percentage of Conundrum = 30%.
It has to share the loss of 3% proportionately with the others, which form a total of 75%.
Therefore, loss in percentage of Conundrum = (30/75)*3% = 1.2%.
Therefore, new percentage of conundrum = 28.8%.
The angle = (28.8/100)*360 = 103.68 degrees.
Therefore, answer is 104 degrees ( rounded-up ).
5) Answer (C)
The total cost of mining the ores is as follows:
Aluminium Ores: 20*13k = 260k
Iron pyrite : 17*15k = 255k
Magnetite: 10*25k = 250K
Malachite: 8*30k = 240k
Heamatite: 15*17k = 255k
Therefore, the least production cost is for Malachite.
6) Answer (C)
Let the total availability of all ores be 100 units.
Hence, initially the values for each of the ores is
Corundum: 30% of 13% of 100 = 3.9
Malachite: 30% of 100 = 30
Magnatite: 25% of 100 = 25
Kryolite: 20% of 13% of 100 = 2.6
According to the given information, the values of the ores after the growth would be as follows:
Corundum: 3.9 * (1+600%) = 27.3
Malachite: 30 * (1-12%) = 26.4
Magnatite: 25 * (1+5%) = 26.25
Kryolite: 2.6* (1+900%) = 26
Therefore, the absolute value of Corundum would be the highest.
7) Answer (A)
If there are no additions/deletions in a group, the average should increase by 1 year.
As Drums group shows no changes between Dec 2007-Dec 2010, the new recruit into Drums would have joined on Dec 2007.
In the Trumpets group, the average changes from 13 to 12.33 suggesting the latter average is calculated by dividing by a multiple of 3.
Hence, there was an addition to the Trumpet group in 2009.
Violin group, the average changes from 13.4 to 13.5 over the last year indicating the divisor is now either 4 or 6.
An average of 13.4 indicates the divisor is 5.
Hence the sum of the ages changes from 67 to either 54 or 81.
If a 17 yr old member had left then the change would have been 67-17+4=54.
If a 9 yr old member had been added the change would have been 67+5+9=81.
In the Piano group, the average changes from 12.67 to 12.5.
Hence the number of members has changed from 3 to either 2 or 4.
Hence sum of ages = 38 changes to either 25 or 50.
If the change was due to the graduation of members it should have changed to 38-17+2=23.
Therefore, it cannot be a deletion. Hence a member is added in 2008.
Hence the change in 2009 has to be a deletion due to graduation.
Thus, a member was added to Violin in 2010.
As per the explanation, a new recruit was added to the Trumpets section in 2009.
Hence, his/her age in 2010 would be = 9+1 = 10 years
8) Answer (A)
If there are no additions/deletions in a group, the average should increase by 1 year.
As Drums group shows no changes between Dec 2007-Dec 2010, the new recruit into Drums would have joined on Dec 2007.
In the Trumpets group, the average changes from 13 to 12.33 suggesting the latter average is calculated by dividing by a multiple of 3.
Hence, there was an addition to the Trumpet group in 2009.
Violin group, the average changes from 13.4 to 13.5 over the last year indicating the divisor is now either 4 or 6.
An average of 13.4 indicates the divisor is 5.
Hence the sum of the ages changes from 67 to either 54 or 81.
If a 17 yr old member had left then the change would have been 67-17+4=54.
If a 9 yr old member had been added the change would have been 67+5+9=81.
In the Piano group, the average changes from 12.67 to 12.5.
Hence the number of members has changed from 3 to either 2 or 4.
Hence sum of ages = 38 changes to either 25 or 50.
If the change was due to the graduation of members it should have changed to 38-17+2=23.
Therefore, it cannot be a deletion. So, a member is added in 2008.
Hence the change in 2009 has to be a deletion due to graduation.
Thus, a member was added to Violin in 2010.
As per the explanation, a member was added to the Piano group in 2008 and a member graduated from the group in 2009 at the age of 17.
In 2009, the sum of the ages hence was 12.33*3=37 = 10+x+y.
Hence x+y=27.
If one of the members was 12 in 2007, they would be 14 in 2009.
Hence y=27-14=13.
Hence the youngest member was 13-2=11 years old.
9) Answer (C)
If there are no additions/deletions in a group, the average should increase by 1 year.
As Drums group shows no changes between Dec 2007-Dec 2010, the new recruit into Drums would have joined on Dec 2007.
In the Trumpets group, the average changes from 13 to 12.33 suggesting the latter average is calculated by dividing by a multiple of 3.
Hence, there was an addition to the Trumpet group in 2009. Violin group, the average changes from 13.4 to 13.5 over the last year indicating the divisor is now either 4 or 6.
An average of 13.4 indicates the divisor is 5.
Hence the sum of the ages changes from 67 to either 54 or 81.
If a 17 yr old member had left then the change would have been 67-17+4=54.
If a 9 yr old member had been added the change would have been 67+5+9=81.
In the Piano group, the average changes from 12.67 to 12.5.
Hence the number of members has changed from 3 to either 2 or 4.
Hence sum of ages = 38 changes to either 25 or 50.
If the change was due to the graduation of members it should have changed to 38-17+2=23.
Therefore, it cannot be a deletion. Hence a member is added in 2008.
Hence the change in 2009 has to be a deletion due to graduation.
Thus, a member was added to Violin in 2010.
As per the explanation, the member who left was from the Piano group
10) Answer (B)
CAGR for B:
2500(1+x)5=7000
=>(1+5x+10×2)=2.8
=>x ~ 25% (over approximation)
Cars produced in 2011 = 7000*(1.25)
= 8750
So, the end value should be close to 8750 but less than it. Hence, the answer is option B.
