SNAP 2009 Question Paper

Logic: Each letter of every term is a two-letter increment from the corresponding letters of the previous term.

K + 2 = M

Q + 2 = S

W + 2 = Y

C + 2 = E

For Mohan, 

There are 2 cases for STD calls:

1) Call rate of 1.5 which will give 30*1.5= Rs. 45

2) Call rate of 2, which will give 30*2= Rs. 60

For Local calls,

30% of 100min in landline= 30 min of landline will cost 30*2= Rs. 60

40% of 100 min in GSM = 40 min of GSM will cost 40*1= Rs. 40

30% of 100 min in Airtel= 30 min of Airtel costs 30*1= Rs. 30

Total money spent by Mohan for local calls= Rs. 130.

In total he spends either Rs. 130+ 45= 175 or Rs. 130+60= Rs. 190.

For Rohan, 

The two cases for STD call rates will cost him:

1) 18*1.5= Rs. 27 with call rate of Rs.1.5/min

2) 18*2= Rs. 36 with call rate of Rs. 2/min

For Local calls,

30% of 120 min= 36 min with GSM will cost him Rs. 36.

40% of 120 min= 48 min with landline will cost him Rs. 48*2= Rs. 96

30% of 120 min= 36 min with Airtel will cost him Rs. 36.

Total money spent on local calls= Rs. (36+ 96+36)= 168.

Including the STD calls, he spends either Rs. 195 or Rs. 201.

Clearly, even the case where the maximum money spent by Mohan is less compared to the case where the minimum amount spent by Rohan is considered. Therefore, Rohan spends more of the two.

We will try to find the breakeven point at which the money spent at old rate was higher than or equal to the money spent on the new scheme. 

Let us consider x SMS being sent a month.

Bill amount because of old rates= 1.5x

For the new scheme, money payable= 0.6x+ 35.

So, for the new scheme to be profitable,

1.5x> 0.6x+35

=> 0.9x> 35

=> x>35/0.9

=>x>38.88 

or, from 39 messages/ month onwards, the scheme is profitable.

.'. For a person sending 38 SMS a month will not be benefited from the scheme.

To get a total bill of Rs. 199, we need to somehow amount the outgoing calls to Rs. 100, as the plan price is Rs. 99

In Option A, 30 STD calls to Airtel (500 km+) will amount Rs. 30*1.5= Rs. 45

55 Local calls to Airtel/ GSM will cost Rs. 55*1= Rs. 55

So, total amount for the given option= Rs. 55+ Rs. 45= Rs. 100. This will amount to total bill of Rs. 199

In option B, 16 STD Airtel calls will amount to Rs. 16*1.5= Rs. 24

76 local calls will cost Rs. 76*1= Rs. 76

So, total amount for the given option= Rs. 76+ Rs. 24= Rs. 100. This will amount to total bill of Rs. 199

In option C, 10 STD calls (250 km) to Airtel, GSM and Landline will cost Rs. {(10*1.5) + (10*2.5) + (10*2.5)}= Rs. (15+25+25)= Rs. 65

The bill from local calls can vary from Rs. 30*1 to Rs. 30*2 i.e from Rs. 30 to Rs. 60

So, total amount can vary from Rs. 95 to Rs. 125. So, a bill of Rs. 100 is possible, which can amount to a total bill of Rs. 199

In option D, 8 STD calls on Airtel, 4 GSM STD and 7 Landline STD, all 500 km+ will cost Rs. {(8*1.5) + (4*3) + (7*3.5)} = Rs. (12+12+24.5)

= Rs. 48.5

Local call bill will vary from Rs. 55*1 to Rs. 55*2, which is from Rs. 55 to Rs. 110.

So, total amount can vary from Rs. 103.5 to Rs. 158.5. So, a bill of Rs. 100 is not possible. Therefore which a total bill of Rs. 199 is not possible in this case.

Since, the amount of the total ISD bill is not mentioned, we cannot determine the required entity. 

So, Cannot be determined.

Total Demand= 3000+ 600+ 2500+ 1200+ 3300= 10600

So, average demand= $$^{\ \frac{\ 10600}{5}}$$= 2120.

Total Production= 1500+1800+1000+2700+2200= 9200

Average Production= $$^{\ \frac{\ 9200}{5}}$$= 1840.

Therefore difference in average production and average supply= 2120-1840= 280- Option C

Production of Company D= 2700

Production of company A= 1500

So, D's production is $$^{\ \frac{\ 2700}{1500}}$$= 1.8 times that of A's production.

If we consider the entire circle, it represents both 360$$^{\circ\ }$$ as well as 100%.

So, 360$$^{\circ\ }$$= 100%

=> 10%= 36$$^{\circ\ }$$

Paper's share is shown as 10%. therefore angle subtended by the paper's share is 36$$^{\circ\ }$$

It is given that 2% of C.P= Rs. 2000

=>$${\ \frac{\ 2}{100}}$$*CP= 2000

=>CP= $${\ \frac{\ 200000}{2}}$$.

.'. CP= Rs. 1,00,000

Profit required =5%

So, total SP= 1.05(1,00,000)= Rs. 1,05,000.

Copies sold= 12,500.

Therefore, SP of each copy= Rs. $${\ \frac{\ 1,05,000}{12,500}}$$= Rs.8.40- Option D

A fruit grows on tree. But according to the code words, tree is referred to as Sky. So, as per this question, a fruit grows on sky.
