XAT 2022 Question Paper
Read the following scenario and answer the THREE questions that follow.
A pencil maker ships pencils in boxes of size 50, 100 and 200. Due to packaging issues, some pencils break. About the 20 boxes he has supplied to a shop, the following information is available:
* Box no. 1 through 6 have 50 pencils, Box no. 7 through 16 have 100 pencils and Box no. 17 through 20 have 200 pencils.
* No box has less than 5% or more than 20% broken pencils.
Following is the frequency table of the number of broken pencils for the twenty boxes:
Suppose that additionally it is known that the number of broken pencils in Boxes 17-20 are in increasing order. Which among the following additional information, if true, is not sufficient to uniquely know the number of defective pencils in each of the boxes numbered 17-20?
Read the following scenario and answer the THREE questions that follow.
An examination had ten multiple choice questions; labelled Q1 to Q10 respectively. Each question had four answer options — A, B, C and D — of which one and only one was the correct answer. For each correct answer, the candidate obtained 1 mark. There were no negative marks for wrong answers. The answers chosen by six candidates named Om, Pavan, Qadir, Rakesh, Simranjeet and Tracey to each of the ten questions and the total marks obtained by each of them are shown in the table.
For the following questions answer them individually
Shireen draws a circle in her courtyard. She then measures the circle’s circumference and its diameter with her measuring tape and records them as two integers, A and B respectively. She finds that A and B are co-primes, that is, their greatest common divisor is 1. She also finds their ratio, A:B, to be: 3.141614161416… (repeating endlessly).
What is A - B ?
Read the following scenario and answer the THREE questions that follow.
The given candlestick chart depicts the prices of a particular stock over 10 consecutive days. A candlestick comprises of a rectangular box pieced by a line. The top and bottom ends of the line respectively indicate the maximum and minimum prices of the stock on that day, while the horizontal edges of the rectangle correspond to the stock's opening and closing prices. If the rectangle is white, the opening price is lower than the closing price, but if the rectangle is black, then it is the other way around.
Using the above information, answer the questions that follow:
Which day saw the maximum percentage increase in the stock price at closing from the opening?
What is the highest magnitude of change over two consecutive days (for example,Day 1 → Day 3 or Day 5 → Day 7), in the maximum price touched by the stock duringthe 10-day period (
choose the closest amongst the options given)?
On which day is the ratio of the maximum price to the opening price, the highest across the ten days?
For the following questions answer them individually
Wilma, Xavier, Yaska and Zakir are four young friends, who have a passion for integers. One day, each of them selects one integer and writes it on a wall. The writing on the wall shows that Xavier and Zakir picked positive integers, Yaska picked a negative one, while Wilma’s integer is either negative, zero or positive. If their integers are denoted by the first letters of their respective names, the following is true:
$$W^{4}+X^{3}+Y^{2}+Z\leq4$$
$$X^{3}+Z\geq2$$
$$W^{4}+Y^{2}\leq2$$
$$Y^{2}+Z\geq3$$
Given the above, which of these can $$W^{2}+X^{2}+Y^{2}+Z^{2}$$ possibly evaluate to?
If both the sequences x, a1, a2, y and x, b1, b2, z are in A.P. and it is given that $$y > x$$ and $$z < x$$, then which of the following values can $$\left\{\frac{(a1-a2)}{(b1-b2)}\right\}$$ possibly take?
