General Science Notes for RRB Exams (PDF)

Answers & Solutions:

1) Answer (A)

$(a+b+c)(a+2b-c)$

=$a^2+2ab-ac+ab+2b^2-bc+ac+2bc-c^2$

=$a^2+2b^2-c^2+3ab+bc$

So the answer is option A.

2) Answer (C)

For any given number, that can be represented as $ A^{x} \times B ^ {y} $, etc

The number of factors is denoted by (x+1) x ( y+1), etc

360 = $ 2 ^ {3} \times 3 ^ {2} \times 5^ {1}$

So the number of factors = (3 +1) x (2+ 1) (1+ 1) = 4x3x2 = 24

For 240, it is $ 2 ^ {4} \times 3 ^ {1} \times 5^ {1}$

Number of factors = 5 x 2 x 2 = 20 only

3) Answer (B)

Let the number be x.
=> (9+x)(83+x) = (23+x)(41+x)
=> $747 + 92x + x^2 = 943 + 64x + x^2$
=> 28x = 196
=> x = 7

4) Answer (C)

After the students left, there will be 32 students with the same average height. 4 ft and 2 inches

Total height = 32 x 4.17 = 133.44

Total height of 6 students is 33 ft and 4 inches. = 33.33

New total height = 133.44 + 33.33 = 166.77

New average height = 166.77/ 38 = 4 feet 4 inches

5) Answer (C)

The average age increases with age. So, after 10 years, the average age is 20 + 10 = 30 years.

6) Answer (A)

Incomes of Ravi, Rahul and Ramesh are in the ratio 3:4:6.
=> Let the incomes of Ravi, Rahul and Ramesh be 3x, 4x and 6x respectively.
Incomes of Ravi, Rahul and Ramesh are increased by 20%, 40% and 60% respectively.
=> New income of Ravi = 3x * 1.2 = 3.6x
=> New income of Rahul = 4x * 1.4 = 5.6x
=> New income of Ramesh = 6x * 1.6x = 9.6x
Ratio of new incomes of Ravi, Rahul and Ramesh = 3.6x : 5.6x : 9.6x
= 9 : 14 : 24

7) Answer (D)

4/5th of 100=80

no of remaining pages=100 – 80=20

8) Answer (B)

9) Answer (D)

Since the ratio of sides is given as 4:5:6, let the side of the triangle be 4y,5y and 6y.

The perimeter is given as 90.Thus,

90=4y + 5y + 6y=15y

=> y=6.

Thus, the sides are 24,30,36.

Area of the triangle by Heron’s formula=√s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)=357.14 , where s is the semiperimeter and a,b,c are the sides of the triangle.

Since no options satisfy the answer, option D none of these is correct.

12) Answer (A)

There are 8 members and 3 couples in the family.
There are 2 grand children in the family => If these 2 children are considered to b of generation 0, then the members of the family in generations -1 and -2 are all married because there have to 3 couples in the family.
E is one of the grand children of F => F is a female belonging to generation -2.
As E is a nephew of someone in the family, E is a male belonging to generation 0.
D is married to H => These two members cannot belong to generation -2. They have to be in generation -1. D is a male and H is a female.
H is the aunt of B => B belongs to generation 0.
B’s mother is A => A belongs to generation -1 and is a female
C is the oldest member of the family => C is a male member who is married to F and belongs to generation -2.
G is the only person left and he has to be from generation -1 as he has children => G is married to A and both E and B are their children.
G has a son and a daughter. E is a male => B is a female of generation 0.

1994 has 365 days

average days per month = $\frac{365}{12} = 30.4166$

So the answer is option B.

16) Answer (B)

For each non-leap year, 1st jan will shift to one day of the week earlier. Hence, 1st jan 2015 would be on Thursday. As 1st Jan falls before 29th February, for leap years we need to deduct 2 days. From 2002 to 2016, there are 11 non-leap year and 3 leap years. Hence, we need to deduct = 11*-1+3*-2= -17. Hence, we need to count 17 days earlier, which is the same as 2 weeks and 3 days. Hence, Friday – 3 days of the week = Tuesday. Hence, 1st January 2002 was a Tuesday.

17) Answer (D)

Every year the day increases by one and in every leap year the day increases by 2.
So, if August 1 2007 was a Saturday, August 1 2008 is a Monday (Since 2008 is a leap year).
August 1 2009 is a Tuesday.
August 1 2010 is a Wednesday and
August 1 2011 is a Thursday.

18) Answer (D)

The values for Tamil Nadu are: 520, 540, 550 and 520.
Since 520 repeats twice (more times than any other value), it is the mode of the observations.

19) Answer (A)

Total pesticides used = 25 + 15 + 30 + 35 = 105 tons
Total fertilizers used = 30 + 40 + 15 + 25 = 110 tons

Total cost of pesticides = 2500 * 105 = 262,500
Total cost of fertilizers = 3000 * 110 = 330,000

So, the cost of fertilizers is more

20) Answer (C)

Angle made by SUVs = 27 degrees
Angle made by Buses = 90 degrees
Total angle made by buses and SUVs = 117 degrees.
Total angle made by whole traffic = 360 degrees
=> % of traffic due to buses and SUVs = $\frac{117}{360}*100$ = 32.5%

21) Answer (C)

percentage of mill sector to that of fabrics from 2002-03 to 2008-09 is given below:

3.56, 3.38 ,3.36, 3.32, 3.27, 3.17, 3.26

thus, in no year the % is greater than 4.∴ statement 1 is correct.

The ratio of mill sector to handloom in 2004-05 and 2005-06 are 26.67% and 27.1% respectively.∴ Statement 2 is also correct.Thus, option C is the right choice.

22) Answer (B)

70% of 10% of 500% of 20 = (0.7)(0.1)(5)(20) = (0.7)((0.1)(100) = (0.7)(10) = 7

So the answer is option B.

23) Answer (B)

$(0.2)(0.3)(4)(0.5)(60) = (0.2)(0.3)(120) = (0.06)(120) = 7.2$

So the answer is option B.

24) Answer (D)

Circumference of a circle is 2$ \pi$ r

So, if the circumference increases by 10%, the radius also increases by 10%

area of the circle = $ \pi r ^ {2}$

If radius becomes 1.1r, area increases by $1.1 ^ {2}$ = 1.21

25) Answer (B)

10% of the boys = 1/4 of the number of girls.

So b/10 = g/4

b/g = 10/4 = 5/2

26) Answer (A)

Total amount = $P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n$

$2662 = 2000(1+\frac{10}{100})^n$

$2662 = 2000(11/10)^n$

$1.331 = (11/10)^n$

$(11/10)^3 = (11/10)^n$

$ n = 3$

So the answer is option B.

27) Answer (C)

Let CP = 100

Profit = 240% of 100 = 240

SP = CP+profit = 100+240 = 340

If CP is increased by 30%,

New CP = 130

New SP = Unchanged = 340

Profit = 340 – 130 = 210/-

Answer = $\frac{profit}{SP}\times 100 = \frac{210}{340}\times 100 = 61.76$%

So the answer is option C.

28) Answer (D)

The principal in the bank with simple interest is Rs. 20,000/2 = Rs. 10,000
Interest earned = 10,000 * 2 * 10% = Rs. 2,000

The principal in the bank with compound interest is Rs. 20,000/2 = Rs. 10,000
Interest earned = $10,000 * 1.1^2$ – 10,000 = Rs. 2,100

Total interest earned = 2,000 + 2,100 = Rs. 4,100

29) Answer (D)

Let the CP = 100
Mark Up = 30%
MP = 130
Disount = 10%
SP = 90% of 130 = 117
Gain% = (117-100)/100 = 0.17 = 17%

30) Answer (A)

SP of 80 articles = CP of 80 articles+CP of 20 articles
SP of 80 articles = CP of 100 articles
SP/CP = 100/80 = 1.25
Gain% = (1.25-1)*100 = 25%

31) Answer (B)

We can factorize the number in form of prime factors.
$12400 = 2^4*5^2*31^1$
Therefore, the number of prime factors = 3. Hence, option B is the correct answer.

32) Answer (D)

Prime factorization of $24=(2)^3\times(3)^1$

=> umber of positive factors = $(3+1)\times(1+1)$

= $4\times2=8$

=> Ans – (D)

33) Answer (A)

$\frac{\text{0.03 x 4.2 + 7.9 x 0.75 + 0.4 x 0.15} }{\text{3.2 x 0.06 + 3.75 x 0.4 + 3.03 x 0.45}}$

=$\frac{\text{0.126 + 5.925 + 0.06}}{\text{0.192 + 1.5+ 1.3635}}$

=$\frac{6.1110}{3.0555}$

= 2

Hence, the option A is correct.

34) Answer (A)

Let the four consecutive odd numbers be $(x-3),(x-1),(x+1)$ and $(x+3)$

Sum = $(x-3)+(x-1)+(x+1)$ $+(x+3)=208$

=> $4x=208$

=> $x=\frac{208}{4}=52$

$\therefore$ Largest number = $52+3=55$

=> Ans – (A)

35) Answer (D)

Let the sum = $x$

rate = 10% and time = 2 years

Amount after compound interest = $x (1 + \frac{10}{100})^{2}$ = 12100

=> $\frac{121x}{100}$ = 12100

=> $x$ = 10,000

36) Answer (B)

We have been given that sum of 8% of a and 4% of b is equal to three fourth of the sum of 9% of a and 8% of b
So we have
$\frac{8a}{100} + \frac{4b}{100} = \frac{3}{4}(\frac{9a}{100} + \frac{8b}{100})$
=> $ 8a + 4b = \frac{3}{4}(9a + 8b)$
$ 32a + 16b = 27a + 24b$
=> 5a = 8b
=> $\frac{a}{b} = \frac{8}{5}$

37) Answer (C)

Let x and y be the biggest and smallest numbers respectively
$x^2 + y^2 = 205$
x-y = 7
==> $(x-y)^2 = 7^2$
==> $x^2 + y^2 -2*x*y = 49$
==> $205 – 2*x*y = 49$
==> $2*x*y = 205-49$
==> $x*y = 78$ ==> x = 78/y
==> 78/y -y = 7
==> $78 – y^2 = 7y$
On solving the above equation y = 6 and x = 13
Therefore, the biggest number is 13.

38) Answer (C)

Mark the information given in a venn-diagram.


Total number of cricketers = 28
We can the find the number of people who are both cricketers and politicians with the given information.
10 + 6 + x + 4 = 28
=> x = 8 => Number of people who are both cricketers and politicians is 8.
Similarly, we can find the number of people who are both doctors and politicians.
16 + 12 + 10 + y + 6 + 8 + 4 = 80
=> y = 24 => Number of people who are both doctors and politicians is 24.
Number of politicians who are also doctors is 24 + 4 = 28.

39) Answer (D)

$\frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b}$ = $\frac{1}{18}$
$\frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{c}$ = $\frac{1}{24}$
$\frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c}$ = $\frac{1}{36}$
=> 2($\frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c}$) = $\frac{1}{18}$ + $\frac{1}{24}$ + $\frac{1}{36}$ = $\frac{1}{8}$
=> ($\frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c}$) = $\frac{1}{16}$
=> It takes 16 days for A, B and C together to complete the work.

40) Answer (D)

Let the time taken to meet = t hrs
Distance covered by runner starting from A = 30 * t
Distance covered by runner starting from B = 40 * t
30t + 40t = 0.2 km
=> t = 0.2/70
So, distance covered by the runner starting from A = 30 * 0.2/70 = 6/70 km = 600/7 m
