Instructions

Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions:
‘p’, ‘Q’. ‘R’, ‘S’, T’, ‘X’, ‘Y’ and ‘Z’ are sitting around a circular table facing the centre.
(A) ‘S’ sits exactly between ‘Z’ and ‘T’.
(B) ‘Z’ sits second to the left of “T’ and second to the right of ‘Q’.
(C) ‘Y’ sits third to the left of ‘X’.
(D) ‘P’ is not an immediate neighbour of ‘Q’.

Question 91

‘p’ : ‘Z’ then ‘Q’: ?

Video Solution

Solution

For the sake of clarity, we shall know that ABCDE represents A as the starting point, and on moving anticlockwise we get B. On the other hand, clockwise movement gives E.

The following conclusions can be made:

A and B: The order shall be Q_ZST

Now, Y sits third to the left of X, which means Y's position is third to the left of X (clockwise).

Also, P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

Hence, a possible combination can be: Y_QXZSTP

R can occupy the blank. Hence, the combination, in a clockwise direction, can be YRQXZSTP

Now, Z is third to the left of P. Hence, Third to the left of Q is P.

Question 92

Who is immediate right of ‘S’ ?

Video Solution

Solution

For the sake of clarity, we shall know that ABCDE represents A as the starting point, and on moving anticlockwise we get B. On the other hand, clockwise movement gives E.

The following conclusions can be made:

A and B: The order shall be Q_ZST

Now, Y sits third to the left of X, which means Y's position is third to the left of X (clockwise).

Also, P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

Hence, a possible combination can be: Y_QXZSTP

R can occupy the blank. Hence, the combination, in a clockwise direction, can be YRQXZSTP

Immediate right of S is T.

Question 93

Who sits third to the left of ‘Z’ ?

Video Solution

Solution

For the sake of clarity, we shall know that ABCDE represents A as the starting point, and on moving anticlockwise we get B. On the other hand, clockwise movement gives E.

The following conclusions can be made:

A and B: The order shall be Q_ZST

Now, Y sits third to the left of X, which means Y's position is third to the left of X (clockwise).

Also, P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

Hence, a possible combination can be: Y_QXZSTP

R can occupy the blank. Hence, the combination, in a clockwise direction, can be YRQXZSTP

Third to the left of Z is R.

Question 94

How many people sit between ‘P’ and ‘Q’ when counted anti-clockwise direction from ‘Q’ ?

Video Solution

Solution

For the sake of clarity, we shall know that ABCDE represents A as the starting point, and on moving anticlockwise we get B. On the other hand, clockwise movement gives E.

The following conclusions can be made:

A and B: The order shall be Q_ZST

Now, Y sits third to the left of X, which means Y's position is third to the left of X (clockwise).

Also, P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

Hence, a possible combination can be: Y_QXZSTP

R can occupy the blank. Hence, the combination, in a clockwise direction, can be YRQXZSTP

Between P and Q (anti clockwise from Q), we have XZST. Hence, four people.

Question 95

In which of the following pairs, is the second person sitting to the immediate left of the first person ?

Video Solution

Solution

For the sake of clarity, we shall know that ABCDE represents A as the starting point, and on moving anticlockwise we get B. On the other hand, clockwise movement gives E.

The following conclusions can be made:

A and B: The order shall be Q_ZST

Now, Y sits third to the left of X, which means Y's position is third to the left of X (clockwise).

Also, P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

Hence, a possible combination can be: Y_QXZSTP

R can occupy the blank. Hence, the combination, in a clockwise direction, can be YRQXZSTP

Here, R is sitting to the immediate left of Q.

Instructions

Below are given two passages followed by several possible inferences which can be drawn from the facts stated in the passage. You have to examine each inference separately in the context of the passage and decide upon its degree of truth or falsity.

Data available from the National Institute of Nutrition (NIN) compares, separately for boys and girls, the average heights recorded during 2010 with the average for the period 2005-10 at different ages in the 10 states covered by the NNMBsurvey. The 2010 height turns out to be neither uniformly higher nor uniformly lower than the 2005-10 average heighe at ages 2, 5 and 9 in most of the states. However, the comparison at age 13 is more meaningful as it represents the cumulative result of childhood growth. At age 13, the average height recorded for boys in 2010 is lower than the average for 2005-10 in only one state; Karnataka. For girls at this age, the average height recorded in 2010 turns out to be lower than the 2005-10 average in four States — Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh. In all other States, the 2010 average was greater than or equal to the 2005-10 average.

Question 96

There are only two institutes - NIN and NNMB which have collected data on average height.

Video Solution

Solution

The passage only mentions NIN and NNMB. However, we cannot say anything about the number of institutes that collected data on heights. Hence, the data is inadequate to corroborate the statement.

Question 97

The data from Karnataka was collected by both NIN and NNMB.

Video Solution

Solution

The passage states: At age 13, the average height recorded for boys in 2010 is lower than the average for 2005-10 in only one state; Karnataka.

Hence, it is clear that there is data about Karnataka in both the time brackets, and hence we can say for sure that both the agencies have collected data from Karnataka.

Question 98

In Karnataka, the average age recorded in 2010 for both boys and girls is lower than that for 2005-10.

Video Solution

Solution

The survey was intended to measure the average height of people in different age groups. However, the passage is silent over the average age of the states. Hence, there is no adequate data to corroborate the statement.

Question 99

More States indicated higher average in 2010 as comparedto that 2005-10.

Video Solution

Solution

The passage talks about specific groups (say female in age group of 13 years, or boys at age 13). However, we cannot say anything about the cumulative average of the states. Also, we have no information about the overall average of other states. Hence, data inadequate.

Question 100

There may not be large differences in the height of boys and girls from 2nd to 5th year.

Video Solution

Solution

The passage specifically talks about boys/girls at the age of 13. However, it is silent over the other age groups. Hence, there is no adequate data to corroborate the statement.
