A cube is painted red on two adjacent faces and on one opposite sides face, yellow on two opposite faces and green on the remaining face. It is then cut into 64 equal cubes. How many cubes have one red coloured face only?
Cutting the cube into 64 equal pieces is cubes of $$4\times4\times4$$.
On any face, the number of small cubes that have exactly one painted face are the interior face-centre pieces (not on edges or corners) is equal to $$(n-2)^2$$ .
As we know from the given data that in a cube there are exactly 3 red painted faces in a cube, so the no of cubes which have one red coloured face only = $$3\times\ (n-2)^2\ =\ 3\left(4-2\right)^2=12$$ .
There is certain relationship between two given words on one side of : : and another word is given on the other side of : : find the other word from the given alternatives having a same relation with this word as the words of the given pair.
Foot : Skateboard : : Oar
We skate on a skateboard with help of our feet.
Now we need to find out what we use an oar for.
Option A : Fishing
We use a fishing rod for fishing
Option C : Sailing
We use a boat for sailing
Option D : Pedal Boat
We use our foot to pedal the boat
Opton B : Rowboat
In rowing, oars are used to propel the boat.
Hence correct answer is option B
In an extended family, A is married to B and B has two sons C and D. The younger son D is married to E. F has two children E and G. How is G related to D?
A is married to B and has two sons C and D.
D is married to E, G and F are E's sibling and parent, respectively.
From the above information we can say that D is a son so he is a male, and G is sibling of D's wife E.
Hence D is brother in law of G
Select the pair which has same type of relationship like Barometer : Pressure
From the information given in the question, we can infer that we need to check for such a relationship where the instrument is being used to measure the physical quantity. ( since Barometer is being used to measure atmospheric pressure.)
In option A, the unit of force is given as kg, which is not a correct relationship. Richter scale is used to measure the strength of earthquakes, but in the option, it is linked to heat. Therefore, option B is not correct.
The weighing scale measures the weight of an object, whose unit is Kg. Hence, this is wrong. The thermometer measures temperature, which is the correct relationship.
The correct option is D.
Few men were sitting in a row facing north in a row.
Sunil is 16th to the left of Ram, who is 18th from the right. Jack is 11th from left and is also 4th to the right of Sunil. How many men were sitting in a row.
From the first sentence we can say that there are 15 people between Ram and Sunil and Ram has 17 peole to his right.
Jack is 4th to right pf Sunil, so he must have 3 people between him and Sunil. Since there are 15 people between Sunil and Ram, we can say that there will be 15 - 4 = 11 people between Jack and Ram.
Jack is 11th from left and he also has Sunil to his left. Jack will have 10 people to his left and Sunil is 4th to his left , This must mean that Sunil will have 10 - 4 = 6 people to his left.
Hence we can say that there are 6 + 1 +3+1 +11 +1 + 17 = 40 people in the row
The question consists of a statement, followed by two arguments numbered I and II. You have to decide which of the argument is a 'strong' argument and which is a 'weak' argument.
Statement : Women should be allowed to go out alone.
Arguments II : Yes. It would make them independent and safe.
Arguments III : No. They are under the protection of their male affines and they should be with them always
A. Only argument I is strong
B. Only argument II is strong
C. Both arguments I and II are strong
D. Both arguments I and II are weak
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
In this question, the argument I is weak since it fails to provide probable support for its conclusion.
Similarly, argument II is also weak since it is an argument with no proper support ( they are just assuming it without any strong premises).
Therefore, option D is the correct answer.
Find the odd one among the following:
Chapters, Content and Exercise are parts of a Book. Hence Book is the odd man out among the given options.
One statement and two assumptions for the statement are given. Read the statement, think about the assumptions and mark the correct option which is implicit in the statement.
Statement I : Some people believe in the existence of god.
Arguments II : Not everything in this world is created by humans.
Arguments III : Human beings are imperfect.
A. Only argument I is implicit
B. Only argument II is implicit
C. Both arguments I and II are implicit
D. Neither I nor II are implicit
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
A statement below is followed by two conclusions I and II. Assuming that everything in the statement is correct, consider the two conclusions together and decide which of them follows beyond reasonable doubt, from the information given in the statement.
Statement I : In a one day match, total runs made by a team were 200. Out of which 160 runs were made by the spinners.
Conclusions I : 80% of the team consists of spinners
Conclusions II : The opening batsmen were spinners
From the given statement, we can conclude that 80% of the runs are scored by spinners, which doesn't imply that 80% of the team consists of spinners. Therefore, the conclusion 1 is not correct.
Similarly, we cannot conclude anything about the openers, whether they are spinners or not. Hence, conclusion 2 is not correct.
Therefore, the correct answer is D.
Deepti was walking with her husband Rajiv. They met a Woman Milli. Deepti introduced Milli to Rajiv and said "Her brother's father is the only son of my grandfather. "How is Deepti related to Milli?
Milli's brother's father is the only son of Deepti's grandfather.
Milli's brother's father means Milli's father, and the father is only son of Deepti's grandfather.
Thus Milli, her brother and Deepti will have same father.
Hence Milli and Deepti are sisters.
Count the member of triangles in the following figure.
We can see that there is square that is divided into 4 parts.
Each part is divided into two triangles.
Hence the square is made up of 8 triangles, as labelled below
Now if observe Triangle number 2 and 7 can also form a triangle
Similarly triangle numbers 2 and 3, 3 and 6 and 6 and 7 can also form a triangle.
Hence total number of triangles = 8+4 = 12
A is the son of B, whose mother is C. D is the husband of E the grand-daughter of C. If F is the wife of A, how is F's father-in-law related to D's daughter?
From the given information we can draw the following family tree
We can observe that A and F are husband and wife. A is the son of B. C is mother of B. C is grandmother of A and E. Lastly, D is husband of E.
We need to find the relation between F's father in law and D's daughter.
F's father in law can be be B or husband of B, ( we can't say exactly as we don't know the gender of B)
E and D's have C as their grand mother and B and/or his husband as Uncle.
Hence E and D's daughter will have F's father in law as her grandfather.
Find the odd one among the following :
The four numbers are 143, 168, 195, and 225.
143, 168, and 195 are of the form $$n^2-1$$
143 = $$12^2-1$$
168 = $$13^2-1$$
195 = $$14^2-1$$
225 = $$15^2$$
Hence, the number 225 is the odd one out among the given numbers.
Alternate:
The difference, (168-143) = 25, (195-168) = 27, hence the next difference should be 29. Hence, the next number should be (195 + 29) = 224.
Therefore, 225 is the odd number here. The correct option is C.
A girl leaves her home and walks 30 mt towards north. She turns clockwise by $$45^{\circ}$$ and walks 30 meter. Then she turns anti-clockwise by $$45^{\circ}$$ and walks 30 meter, Then she turns by $$90^{\circ}$$ towards her left and walks 60 meter. There she turns towards her home. In which direction is she walking?
Let's assume H to be home.
She walks 30 meters towards north(at A)
H will be South of A
Now from A she walks towards B which is north east of A.
Hence H will be towards South - west of B
Now she'll walk towards D which to her left/ east, She walks 60 meters so she'll be to the left of H
Hence now H will be towards south east of D
Two statements are given below, there may be cause and effect relationship between the two statements. These may be the result of same cause or independent cause. Read both the statements and mark the answer :
Statement I : There is an increase in the water level of all the water tanks supplying drinking water to the city in the last fortnight.
Statement II : Most of the trains were cancelled due to waterlogging on the tracks.
Both statements are the effect of the same cause, which is related to the heavy increase of the water layer due to some reason.
Hence, option D is the correct answer.
Find the missing term :
$$ZA_{5}, Y_{4}B, XC_{6}, W_{3}D, \frac{ ? }{ }$$.
There is no number with the first alphabet in the first and the third terms, which implies the fifth term will be V(alphabetically, the order decreases starting with z). The second letter in each term increases starting with A. Hence the second letter in the fifth term is E. (VE)
Hence option B is the correct answer.
The following question consists of a statement followed by two arguments I and II. Choose the best option.
Statement: Should the cottage industry be shifted to urban cities from villages?
Argument I: No, the rural population will die of hunger.
Argument II: Yes, rural people will be encouraged to adopt farming as their livelihood.
The question under scrutiny: [Should the cottage industry be shifted to urban cities from villages?]
Argument I: This argument suggests that if the cottage industry is shifted to urban cities from villages, the rural population will die of hunger. However, this argument assumes that the cottage industry is the sole source of livelihood for the rural population, which may not be the case. There could be other means of income and employment in rural areas, such as agriculture, animal husbandry, or other industries. Therefore, Argument I is not strong.
Argument II: This argument implies that if the cottage industry is shifted to urban cities from villages, it would encourage rural people to adopt farming as their primary livelihood. Assuming that shifting the cottage industry will automatically encourage everyone to adopt farming is an oversimplification. Therefore, argument II is also not strong.
Based on the analysis, both arguments I and II are not strong - they do not help answer the given question. Hence, Option C is the correct choice
A word is represented by only one set of numbers as given in any one of the options. The sets of numbers given in the, options are represented by two classes of alphabets as in the two matrices.

Option C
66, 44,42, 96 - R, A, O, W
Option D
75, 30, 31, 87 - R, A, I, W
Hence Option A is the correct answer
If 23rd April, 1995 is a Tuesday, then what will be the day on 23rd April, 1988?
The odd days from 23rd April 1988 to 23rd April 1995 is (1+!+1+2+1+1+1) = 8. Hence 23rd April 1998 will be one day lesser than 23rd April 1995. If 23rd April 1995 is Tuesday, then 23rd April 1988 is Monday.
Hence, the correct answer is option A.
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R
Assertion A: Celebrity endorsements add to the brand value and sale of the products.
Reason R: Most celebrity are rich enough to afford the best technology and products in any given category.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Assertion A
Celebrity endorsement is a form of advertising campaign or marketing strategy which uses a celebrity's fame or social status to promote a product, brand or service, or to raise awareness about an issue. Marketers use celebrity endorsers in hopes that the positive image of the celebrity endorser will be passed on to the product's or brand's image.
Thus this is an correct Assertion.
Reason R
Most celebrities are highly famous and rich people. This fame and money enables them to enjoy various luxuries of life. Thus, this is a correct statement.
Although R is a correct statement, it cannot be the correct reason for the given assertion as brands ask celebrities to endorse their products because of the influence that celebrities have over the people and not because of their lifestyle
If the given interchanges are made in sign and numbers, which one of the four equations would be-correct?
Interchanges - Signs - and x
- Numbers 3 and 6
A. $$6 - 3 \times 2 = 9$$
B. $$6 \times 3 - 4 = 15$$
C. $$3 \times 6 - 4 = 33$$
D. $$3 - 6 \times 8 = 10$$
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
A. $$6 - 3 \times 2 = 9$$
After interchanges
$$3 \times 6 - 2 = 9$$
This is incorrect as L.H.S = 16
B. $$6 \times 3 - 4 = 15$$
After interchanges
$$3 - 6 \times 4 = 15$$
This is incorrect as L.H.S = - 21
C. $$3 \times 6 - 4 = 33$$
After interchanges
$$6 - 3 \times 4 = 33$$
This is incorrect as L.H.S = -6
D. $$3 - 6 \times 8 = 10$$
After interchanges
$$6 \times 3 - 8 = 10$$
This correct as L.H.S. = R.H.S. = 10
The following question consists of a statement and argument I and II. Choose the best option.
Statement: Should smoking be prohibited.
Argument I: Yes, it is wrong to smoke away millions of money.
Argument II: No, it will throw thousands of workers in tobacco industry out of employment.
Argument 1 : Smoking should be prohibited primarily because of the hazardous effects of it toward our health and environment. Although prohibiting smoking will save people a lot of money but this can't be the basis for banning smoking, hence this argument will be considered as an weak argument.
Argument 2 : Smoking is a billion dollar industry and lot of people are employed in this industry. Surely, banning smoking will have an adverse effect on all those people who are employed in the industry, hence this can be considered as an strong argument.
Option B is the right answer
Two words indicated by I and II have been left out. The correct word in place of I is given as one of the four options against I and correct word in place of II is

II - (P) Building (Q) Marron (R) Clay (S) Kiln
I : Wheat :: Brick: II
The given relation is of raw materials and and their end product. Such as WHEAT is used to make BREAD. And BRICKS are made up of CLAY.
So, correct answer is option is CR
How many squares does the figure have?
The given figure is made up of triangles, let's number each triangle for better understanding.
We can observe that triangles 1 and 2 will make a square.
Similarly, 3 and 4, 5 and 6, 7 and 8, 9 and 10 and 11 and 12 will also make a square
Triangles 4, 5, 8 and 9 will also make a square
Triangles 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 and 12 will make a square and similarly triangles 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 will make a square.
Hence there will be a total of 9 squares possible.
A statement is followed by assumption I and II. An assumption is supposed to be taken for granted. Consider the statement and the assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement.
Statement : The Government has decided to relocate all the brick kilns away from the city.
Assumption I : Pollution in the city is being caused only because of the brick Kilns in the city
Assumption II : Workers shall be able to travel daily to the new site of Brick Kilns
The assumption I is not implicit and the assumption is implicit because without assuming this factor relocation will not make sense. Therefore, answer is option B.
Each of the five balls, such as Red, Blue, Yellow, Black and Green is of a different weight. It is known that:
(i) Black ball is heavier than the Red and Blue balls.
(ii) Yellow ball is lighter than the Red ball.
(iii) Blue ball is heavier than the Red and Green balls.
Which ball could be the lightest one?
From statements (i) and (ii) we can infer that the black ball is heavier than the red, blue and yellow balls since the yellow ball is lighter than the red ball and the black ball is heavier than the red ball.
Similarly from statements (i) and (ii), we can conclude that the black ball is heavier than the green ball. Therefore, the black ball is the heaviest.
Now from statements (ii) and (iii), we can infer that the blue ball is the second heaviest.
It is given that the yellow ball is lighter than the red ball so the red ball cannot be the lightest ball.
Therefore the lightest ball is either the green ball or the yellow ball.

P is heavier than 3 persons. R is lighter than T
S is lighter than only Q
R is not the lightest
Who is lighter and heavier than P respectively?
S is lighter than only Q so we can say S is 2nd heaviest and Q is heaviest
P is heavier than 3 persons so P is the third heaviest
we get Q>S>P
Now T>R as per 1 and R is not the lightest so U is the lightest
we get Q>S>P>T>R>U
so T and S are lighter and heavier than P respectively.

see him. A does not go with F and I does not go with E. B and I do not go together. If E, F and G go together and are seen by one of the managers, then which manager sees whom, assuming that C has opted out of the talks?
G goes to Ram only and it is given that EFG go together so they will go together to Ram. Now A does not go with F so A goes to Deepak, I do not go with E so I go to Deepak F and B do not go to same so B goes to Deepak
so we have
Ram - F,G,E
Deepak - A,I,B,H
Now D can go to both
And as per options the correct answer is Deepak - D, I, H or D, B, H
