Question 142

If the $$1^{ st}$$ Century starts with the day 'Monday' then the probability of starting $$5^{th}$$ century with the day 'Monday' is ________________?

Video Solution

Solution

After 400 years, the calendar repeats itself. So, the 5th century starts on Monday. Hence the probability is 1.

Video Solution

Solution

From I, the grouping are

(Seema, David, Kirti, Rohan) and (Radha)

From II

(Seema, David, Kirti, Rohan, Sunil) and (Radha)

From III

A => (Seema, David, Kirti, Rohan, Sunil) and B => (Radha, Kavita, Yogendra, Trisha)

=> (Seema, David, Kirti, Rohan, Sunil) work in A.

Question 144

If Ram is standing facing North and is watering the plants through a pipe shower in front of him, and the wind is blowing from East to West, then in what direction will the water from the pipe shower flow?

Video Solution

Solution

The initial direction of water is towards north.

Because of wind the direction changes to North west.

Question 145

Select the number that can fill the blank in the following number series.

16, 96, 105, 525, 533, ____________, 2139

Video Solution

Solution

The given series can be written as: 16, 16*6 = 96, 16*6+9 = 105, 105*5 = 525, 105*5+8 = 533, 533*4 = 2132, 2132+7 = 2139

Hence, the correct option is C

Question 146

Consider the given statement and decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follow(s) for pursuing
Statement
With several demands, including their salary increase, the members of the bus drivers’ association did not join their duty and went on a protest march on the highway, blocking the traffic movement.

Courses of Action:
I. The police should clear the highway as soon as possible, even if it amounts to firing teargas shells to disperse the crowd.
II. The police should calm down the crowd assuring them that they would soon be called to the discussion table with the appropriate managing authority.
III. The administration should make alternative arrangements for passengers' travel and wait for the protest movement to die down in course of time.

Video Solution

Solution

Let's take a look at each course of action individually:

(1) Using force to remove the protestors might backfire, as the protestors might get even more support from the public against the authorities. And in case of harm to the protesters, the matter could spiral from simple traffic congestion to a nationwide issue real quick. Hence, this option should be avoided.

(2) This would be the right course of action, as agreeing to discuss and negotiate with the association would fulfil their goal of getting attention and getting the authorities to agree to their demands, or at least consider them seriously.

(3) Ignoring the demands of the bus driver's association members would not make them angry and force them to take harsher actions to get the attention they demand. This can spiral out of hand, causing huge damage to property or life, which the authorities would definitely want to avoid at all costs. Hence, this course of action should be avoided.

Hence, Only (2) is a valid course of action.

Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.

Question 147

School A has Principal - P1, Vice-Principal - VP1 and 3 Male Teachers - M1, M2 and M3. School B has Principal - P2, Vice-Principal - VP2 and 2 Female Teachers - F1and F2. An interschool competition is being held between School A and School B. For this, three judgement teams are to be formed such that [1] to make the judgement fair, at least one person from each school must be in each judgement team, [2] at least one of P1, P2, VP1 and VP2 must be selected in each judgement team. If VP2 and F2 are in one of the teams, which of the following could be in the other team?

Video Solution

Solution

School A: P1, VP1, M1, M2,M3
School B: P2, VP2, F1, F2

Option A: P2, F1, M2
If P2, and F1 are both in the second team, no member of school B would be left to participate in the third team. Hence, this team is not possible.
Option B: M2, F1, M1
This does not satisfy the second condition of each team having at least one of, P1, P2, VP1, VP2
Option C: M2, P2, M3
This option satisfies both the conditions.
Option D: P2, F1, VP1
If P2 and F1 are both in the same team, this option too would not leave any member of school B to participate in the third team. Hence, this team is not possible.

Therefore, Option C is the correct answer.

Question 148

While looking for a singer for his party, Mr. Mehta met three girls named Teena, Shobha and Kavita who always gave two replies to any questions in which one is true and the other is false. Among all the three girls one is the truth teller, one is a liar, and one is an alternator. Mr. Mehta gets confused listening to them. Now, it is your task to find out who among the three girls is the singer and get rid of the confusion for Mr. Mehta.

Kavita
I am the singer.
Shobha is a liar.

Shobha
I am the singer.
Teena is not a singer.

Teena
Shobha is the singer.
Kavita tells a lie.

Video Solution

Solution

Let's take Kavita to be the truth-teller.
That would make Kavita the singer and Shobha the liar.
Shobha being the liar says Teena is not a singer, meaning Teena would actually be a singer. Therefore, this scenario fails.
This make Teena an alternator,
If Teena's first statement is false, that must mean that the second statement is true, which says that Kavita tells a lie, but our assumption was that Kavita is the truth teller.
Therefore, this scenario fails.

Let's take Kavita to be the Liar.
That would give us that Kavita is not the singer and Shobha is not a liar.
Now, let's take Shobha to be the truth-teller.
This gives that, Shobha is the singer and Teena is not a singer.
Now, Teena must be the alternator, The first statement is true, so that must make the second statement false, that Kavita tells a lie.
Kavita is a liar and tells two lies. This satisfies our conditions.

We can try the other scenario's as well.
Taking Kavita to be the liar, and Teena to be the truth-teller.
Making the first statement true and second false, but that breaks down as we know Kavita tells two lies and not one.

Furthermore, once we found out that Shobha can be the singer, we need not check for other case as we do not have to find all the cases possible and Shobha is in a single option, and we can mark that as our answer.
Therefore, Option D is the correct answer.

Question 149

Select the number from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
13, 20, 33, 52, ?, 118, 161

Video Solution

Solution

Looking at the difference between the give numbers, we see that
20-13 = 7
33-20 = 13
52-33 = 19
and towards the end,
161-118 = 43

One noticeable thing is that all of these are prime numbers.
Writing down the prime number,
2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, and so on.
We see that the prime numbers in the difference are prime numbers in an alternating sequence, leaving one prime number in between
The two numbers which should be included in this sequence are:
7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43
29 and 37
Adding 29 to 52, we get 81.
Adding 37 to 81, we get 118.
This fits prefectly into our series, therfore the missing number is 81.

Question 150

In a certain code,
'$$A + B$$' means 'A is the father of B',
'$$A \times B$$'means A is the mother of B',
'$$A \$ B$$'' means 'B is the brother of A',
'$$A \% B$$' means 'B is the sister of A',
and 'A # B'means B is the son of A'.
Which of the following statement is correct?

Video Solution

Solution

Statement 1:
K is sister of J, J is the son of their parent H and H is brother of G.
This is not necessarily true because we do not know the gender of G, so G could be the parental uncle or parental aunt.

Statement 2:
V is the son of T, T is the brother of S, and S is the sister of R. This makes T, S and R siblings.
Therefore, the statement that V is the nephew of R is correct.

Statement 3:
P is the son of N, N is the brother of M, L is the mother of M.
This would make P and L generations apart.
Therefore, this statement is incorrect.

Statement 4:
E is the mother of F, E is the sister of D, C is the father of D.
C would be father of E as well, and thus grandparent of F, but we cannot say that F is the grandson of C because we don not know the gender of F.

Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.
