SRCC GBO 2015 Question Paper

The two statements talk about the rise in price and how private and government schools have responded differently to it.

Hence, it is clear that the main cause is rise in prices and the two statements are effects of the same. 

The first statement talks about excellent results from the school, while the second talks about many teachers leaving the school and joining other private schools. It is clear that the former is a positive statement, but the latter changes the discourse of the discussion completely. 

Hence, they must be the effects of two independent causes. 

The first statement talks about incorporating fruits into our diet to cut down on calories while not compromising on nutrients. The second statement then points out certain fruits that even go further in acting as calorie-burners. 

Hence, the statements are connected, but they are effects of some common cause, since both of them talks about the benefits of fruits in the diet. 

Both statements discuss the unintended medical errors or adverse effects of medical practices/medicines, as pointed out by WHO and the American Medical Association, and provide statistics related to the same. However, there is no causal effect relationship between them because they independently talk about the topic and numbers. Hence, they must be effects of some common cause because of them being from the same topic. 

Statement 1 talks about the test conducted by AIIMS, and Statement 2 talks about the judge reassessing the earlier order on the basis of the test reports. Hence, it is clear that 1 is the cause, and 2 is the effect (since the test led to judge reassessing the order). 

The elements in first row are

A S 23

C U 29

E W 31

If we look closely, the pattern followed is

A+2 = C, C+2 = E

S+2 = U, U+2 = W

23,29,31 are the consecutive prime numbers.

Similarly, this pattern is followed in the second row as well

G Y 37

I A 41

K C 43

G+2 = I, I+2 = K

Y+2 = A, A+2 = C

37,41,43 are consecutive prime numbers.

Then, in third row.

M E 47

M+2 = O

E+2 = G

47 and next is 53

Thus, Option C is the correct answer.

If we look at the elements in the first row,

$$K_7\ L_5\ M_3$$

K, L and M are consecutive digits

The middle number 5 is the average of 2 extreme numbers 7+3 = 10 and 10/2 = 5

Similarly, for the second row,

$$L_9\ M_7\ K_5$$

From the first row, KLM, now LMK, this is the pattern.

9+5 = 14 and 14/2 = 7

So, for the last row

$$M_{11}\ L_9$$

We know that (11+x)/2 = 9

x = 7

From options, only $$K_7$$ is possible.

If you look at the elements written outside the circle, they are

A E I O U A _ I

They are vowels in sequence, hence ? will be E.

Also, the numbers written inside the circular parts are 1,3,5,7,11 ?,17 and 19.

These are prime numbers.

Hence, ? will be 13

So, E and 13

Looking at the elements outside the table, we see the following pattern.

A+3 = D

D+3 = G

G+3 = J

..

..

..

E+3 = H

H+3 = K

Also, if you look at the first column,

3*3+2*2+1*1 = 9+4+1 = 14

Second column = 4*4+6*6+8*8 = 16+36+64 = 116

Third column = 7*7+5*5+9*9 = 155

Hence, K and 155.

Looking at the elements outside the table, we see the following pattern.

A+4 = E

E+4 = I

I+4 = M

..

..

..

S+4 = W

W+4 = A

Also, if you look at the first column,

81+39-15 = 105

Second column = 18+93-51 = 60

Third column = 62+63-45 = 80

Hence, A and 80
