JIPMAT 2025 Question Paper

The difference in the average number of students who appeared in the entrance exam and those who qualified will be equal to the average of all the individual differences in the number of students who appeared versus qualified for the individual cities. Therefore, the answer can be calculated as:

$$\dfrac{(3000-1750)+(2250-1250)+(3250-2250)+(2500-2000)+(3000-2000)}{5} = \dfrac{4750}{5}=950$$

The number of students who appeared in the exam from Delhi is $$2500$$. The total number of students who appeared in the exam from all the cities taken together is $$3000+2250+3250+2500+3000=14000$$. The percentage value required, therefore, is simply,

$$\dfrac{2500}{14000}\times 100= 17.8 \approx 18\%$$

We have the degrees in the pie chart for all the expenditure categories. This can be used to identify the fraction of the total amount spent on that particular expense. 

For instance, Investments has $$54^{\circ\ }$$. This means that of the total (which is $$360^{\circ\ }$$ ), the amount corresponding to 54 is spent in investments. The total given is 45800, so we have the amount spent on investments is $$\frac{54^{\circ\ }}{360^{\circ\ }}\times\ 45800=6870$$

Similarly the others are calculated and tabulated as follows: 

So ratio of amount spent in medical expenses to the amount spent in groceries is$$\frac{5038}{10534}=\ \frac{2519}{5267}=0.4782...$$

Now, of the choices given , option D $$\frac{11}{23}=0.4782...$$ is the closest. Hence, D is the correct choice. 

We have the degrees in the pie chart for all the expenditure categories. This can be used to identify the fraction of the total amount spent on that particular expense.

For instance, Investments has $$54^{\circ\ }$$. This means that of the total (which is $$360^{\circ\ }$$ ), the amount corresponding to 54 is spent in investments. The total given is 45800, so we have the amount spent on investments is $$\frac{54^{\circ\ }}{360^{\circ\ }}\times\ 45800=6870$$

Similarly the others are calculated and tabulated as follows:

So the total amount spent by the family on Entertainment and Loan EMI together is 4580+8702= 13282, which is option B. 

The total number of males in Computer Science = 55% of 840 = 462

The total number of males in Mathematics = 65% of 220 = 143

The total number of males in Chemistry = 35% of 360 = 126

Therefore, the total number of males in Computer Science, Mathematics and Chemistry departments together = 462+143+126 = 731

Option B is the correct answer.

The total number of females in the Physics department = 23% of 900 = 207

The total number of females in the Management department = 44% of 450 = 198

Therefore,  the ratio of the number of females in Physics department to the number of females in the Management department 

=> 207:198

=> 23:22

Thus, option C is the correct answer.

Changing from direct speech to indirect speech involves:

1. The removal of quotation marks (and the comma that precedes it, which gets replaced by the word 'that').
2. A potential change in the tense of the sentence, changing 'said to' to 'told'.
3. A change in pronouns according to the context.
4. Adjustment in the expressions that define time and place.

Using these principles, the sentence $$\rightarrow$$ Pritha said to me, "We have to win this trophy" will be changed to $$\rightarrow$$ Pritha told me that we have to win that trophy.

The noun phrase 'this trophy' in direct speech will be transformed to 'that trophy'. 'We' is an inclusive pronoun that includes both Pritha and the speaker, and will remain unchanged. Option C is the correct answer.

Option A disregards the inclusive 'we' and is incorrect. Option B changes the tense of the quoted modal verb 'have' which should remain unchanged; and is also incorrect. Option D makes the errors made in both options A and B and is incorrect. 

Prepositions that are commonly used with the verb 'strip' that are provided in the options and their meanings are listed below:

1. strip of: to take away (followed by the object being taken away), a phrasal verb
2. strip off: to take away (followed by the object being taken away), also a phrasal verb
3. strip away: taken away (preceded by the object being taken away), also a phrasal verb

'strip against' mentioned in option D is not a phrasal verb, and the preposition 'against' is not commonly used with the verb 'strip'; this makes the option an odd one out. Option D is the correct answer.

The sentence discusses that certain forms of feminism are being criticised as they only take into account white, middle-class and college-educated perspectives. The word 'for' should be followed by the reason why they are being criticised. This reason, in turn, has to be a noun or a phrasal noun. Since the reason for criticism is the focus on white, middle-class and college-educated perspectives by these forms of feminism, the word 'take' should be a gerund. The correct form of 'take' as a gerund will be 'taking', and the correct replacement will be option B. 

The refined version of the sentence should look like: "Some forms of feminism have been criticised for taking into account only white, middle-class and college-educated perspectives."

The sentence 'What a good man he is ___' describes a person as good, and is a sentence that includes praise; it should therefore be followed by an exclamation mark (!). The correct sentence will be 'What a good man he is!'

Option A mentions a full stop (.), but an exclamation mark would be a better choice since the given sentence discusses praise. Option B mentions question mark (?), but the given sentence is not a question either. Option D mentions colon, but the sentence provided is not followed by another clause that has examples, lists, or illustrations; therefore, colon is not appropriate to use in the sentence provided.

The correct answer is option C, exclamation mark (!).
