Directions (1-4): Refer to the data below and answer the questions that follow.
8 Farmers namely, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R and S grow different crops viz; Bajra, Rice, Wheat, Jute, Sugarcane, Cotton, Maize and Pulses (Not necessarily in that order). They get water from different rivers – Banas, Saryu, Betwa, Sindh, Hindon, Chambal, Gomti and Son. Origins of these rivers are Aravali, Shahranpur, Manpur, Amarkantak, Pilibhit, Karnali, Malwa and Vindhya. These rivers have different lengths viz; 350, 400, 470, 512, 590, 784, 900 and 960 (in Kms).
L and N grow wheat and jute not necessarily in that order. River Hindon, which has a length in the multiple of 100 supports Sugarcane cultivation. The sum of the lengths of River Hindon and the river which originates from Malwa is 870. The sum of the lengths of the rivers originating from Aravali and Pilibhit is less than 1500 Km. Length of river Chambal is not a multiple of 100. Neither P nor R grows maize. The second longest river supports the cultivation of Maize and originates from Pilibhit. River Son does not originate from Karnali. Q grows Bajra which is supported by river Banas. Length of the river Banas is not a multiple of 10 and it originates either from Vindhya or from Aravali. River Betwa which originates from Vindhya, supports wheat cultivation. Neither River Chambal nor River Gomti is 470 Km long. The length of river originating from Manpur is a multiple of 3 but not 900 and water of the same river is used by M. Length of River Amarkantak is more than the length of the river from Vindhya. Rice is supported by Saryu river, which is the smallest river. River having length 400 Km, originates from Sharanpur. The river which is the smallest does not support the cultivation of R’s crop. Pulses are grown by S with the water from River Son. N’s crop is dependent on the river which originates from Malwa.

Answers :
Directions (1-4):
1) Q grows Bajra which is supported by river Banas. Length of the river Banas is not a multiple of 10 and it originates either from Vindhya or from Aravali.
2) Rice is supported by Saryu river, which is the smallest river.
3) L and N grow wheat and jute not necessarily in that order.
4) River Betwa which originates from Vindhya, supports wheat cultivation.
5) N’s crop is dependent on the river which originates from Malwa.
6) River Hindon, which has a length in the multiple of 100 supports Sugarcane cultivation. The sum of the lengths of River Hindon and the river which originates from Malwa is 870.
7) River having length 400 Km, originates from Shahranpur.
Hindon river’s length can only be 900km or 400 km. But the sum of the 2 rivers is less than 900. So the length of the river Hindon must be 400 km.
8) The length of river originating from Manpur is a multiple of 3 but not 900 and water of the same river is used by M.
9) The second longest river supports the cultivation of Maize and originates from Pilibhit.
10) The sum of the lengths of the rivers originating from Aravali and Pilibhit is less than 1500 Km.
Banas river originates from Aravali and the lengths of the rivers from Pilibhit, which is 900 km long and Banas river is less than 1500 Km. This is possible only when the length of river Banas is less than 600 km. So the length of the river Banas must be 512 Km.
11) Pulses are grown by S with the water from River Son.
River Son does not originate from Karnali.
13) Neither River Chambal nor River Gomti is 470 Km long.
14) Length of river Chambal is not a multiple of 100.
15) Length of the River Amarkantak is more than the length of the river from Vindhya.
16) Neither P nor R grows maize.
17) The river which is the smallest does not support the cultivation of R’s crop.
1) Answer: D
2) Answer: E
3) Answer: B
4) Answer: D
Directions (5-7):
1) The one who wake up earliest studies English.
2) The one who studies English wakes up at half of the time of Birbal.
3) The one who studies chemistry wakes up 2nd last.
From the above condition the one who studies English wakes up at 4 am, that means Birbal wakes up at 8 am.
The one who studies Chemistry wakes up at 9am.
4) There is a 3 hour gap between the Gemini and the one who studies Maths who don’t wake up last.
5) Birbal and Gemini wake up next to each other.
There are 2 cases: Either Gemini wakes up at 7am or Gemini wakes up at 9am
Case1:Â Gemini wakes up at 7am
6) There is a 3 hour gap between the Gemini and the one who studies Maths who don’t wake up last.
That means the one who studies Maths wakes up at 10 am but according to above condition the one who studies Maths don’t wake up last.
Hence this case is invalid.
Case2:Â Gemini wakes up at 9am
7) There is a 3 hour gap between the G and the one who studies Maths who don’t wake up last.
8) Difference in wake up time of Birbal and Carry is equal to the difference in wake up time of Gemini and Farukh.
That means the one who studies Maths wakes up at 6 am.
From the above condition it can be concluded:-
Birbal – Carry = Gemini – Farukh
There are two sub cases for the timing of Carry and Farukh.
Case 2.a-
When Carry = 10 am and Farukh = 7am
Birbal – Carry = Gemini – Farukh
8 – 10 = 9 – 7
Case 2.b
When Carry = 4am and Farukh = 5am
Birbal – Carry = Gemini – Farukh
8 – 4 = 9 – 5
9) Farukh studies Economics.
10) Elena don’t wake up at a time multiple of 2 and Danny studies Biology.
11) The one who is not Anshul wake up earliest.
From the above condition Elena wakes up at 5am in case 2. a.
But there is no time left for Danny. Hence this case is invalid.
Thus Elena wakes up at 7am.
Therefore there is only one time left for Danny which is 10am.
12) Birbal does not study Accounts.
That means Elena studies Accounts.
