There are five energy drinks - Red, Moto, Energy, Lion and Bull containing different range of sugar content. Moto having sugar content more than all other drinks. Energy having the sugar content only more than the Lion. Bull is not having sugar content more than the Red. Which of the following drink having the second most sugar content?
Let the sugar content in the five drinks Red, Moto, Energy, Lion and Bull respectively be $$R,M,E,L,B$$.
$$M$$ has the highest sugar content.
Energy having the sugar content only more than the Lion, thus $$L$$ is the least and $$E$$ the second least.
Also, $$R$$ has more sugar than $$B$$
$$\therefore$$ M > R > B > E > L
Thus, Red has the second most sugar content.

option D.
Four villages A, B, C and D lie in a straight line. D is 10 kms from B. A is exactly Between D and C and C from B is 2 kms more than it is from D. How far is C from B ?
Distance between D and B = 10 km
C from B is 2 km more than it is from D, that means DC = 4 km and CB = 6 km
A is exactly between D and C i.e. AD = 2 km and AC = 2 km
Following figure represents all the above conclusions.
Hence CB = 6 km

In each of the following questions. select the missing number from the given responses.
Ram and Ravi start together from a point in opposite direction on scooters. Ram’s speed is 21 km/h and Ravi’s speed is 15 km/h. What will be the distance between them after 20 minutes ?
Ram and Ravi are moving in opposite direction .
Speed of Ram = 21 km/hr
Speed of Ravi = 15 km/hr
Relative speed = 21 + 15 = 36 km/hr
Time = 20 min = $$\frac{1}{3}$$ hour
using Distance = Speed x Time
Distance = 36 x $$\frac{1}{3}$$ = 12 km

Ganesh cycles towards South-West a distance of 8 m, then he moves towards East a distance of 20 m. From there he moves towards North-East a distance of 8 m, then he moves towards West a distance of 6 m. From there he moves towards North-East a distance of 2 m. Then he moves towards West a distance of 4 m and then towards SouthWest 2 m and stops at that point. How far is he from the starting point?
Let Ganesh started from point A and travelled south-west for 8 m, then he travelled for 20 m towards east, and again for 8 m towards north-east to reach point D. Then he turned left and travelled west for 6 m, again travelled north-east for 2 m and finally stopped at point H.
