Answers:

Directions (1-5):

1) Answer: E

From statement I,

Sum of the digits = 2 + 4 + x + 8 + 2 + y = 16 + x + y

The number is divisible by 9, so sum of the digits is divisible by 9.

So, x + y = 2 or 11

x – y = 1 or y – x = 1

So, statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statement II,

Sum of the digits = 2 + 4 + x + 8 + 2 + y = 16 + x + y

The number is divisible by 9, so sum of the digits is divisible by 9.

So, x + y = 2 or 11

x * y = 30

So, x + y = 2 is not possible.

x + y = 11

x = 11 – x

x * (11 – x) = 30

11x – x2 = 30

x2– 11x + 30 = 0

(x – 5) (x – 6) = 0

x = 5, 6

If x = 5 means y = 6 and if x = 6 means y = 5

So the number forms, 24x82y = 245826 or 246825

So, statement II alone is not sufficient answer the question.

2) Answer: E

From statement I,

Surface area of the sphere = 4Ï€r2 = 4 * 22/7 * r2

CSA of cone = πrl = 22/7 * r * l

So, Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statement I,

Radius of the cone = 7 cm

Height of the cone = 24 cm

So, Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

3) Answer: D

From statement I,

A = [(100 + x)/100] * B

D = 130/100 * C

So, Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statement II,

B = 120/100 * C

A = 150/100 * D

So, Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From I and II,

A = [(100 + x)/100] * B

D = 130/100 * C

B = 120/100 * C

A = 150/100 * D

2A/3 = D

2A/3 = 13/10 * C

20A/39 = C

B = 6/5 * 20A/39

B = 8A/13

A = (100 + x)/100 * 8A/13

1300 = 800 + 8x

500 = 8x

x = 62.5

Both the statements are necessary to answer the question.

4) Answer: E

From statement I,

A’s investment = Rs.6000

B’s investment = Rs.8000

C’s investment = Rs.6000

So, Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statement II,

Total profit = Rs.28000

B’s investment period = 8 months

So, Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From I and II,

A and C’s investment period is not given.

Both the statements are not necessary to answer the question.

5) Answer: E

From statement I,

1/6 = x * (X – 1)/(x + y) * (x + y – 1)

1/6 = (x2 – x)/(x2 + xy – x + xy + y2 –y)

6(x2 – x) = x2 + xy – x + xy + y2 –y

6x2 – 6x = x2 + xy – x + xy + y2 –y

5x2 – 2xy – 5x – y2 +y = 0

So, Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statement II,

5/18 = y * (y – 1)/(x + y) * (x + y – 1)

18(y2 – y) = 5(x2 + xy – x + xy + y2 –y)

18y2 – 18y = 5x2 + 10xy – 5x + 5y2 –5y

13y2 – 13y – 5x2 – 10xy + 5x = 0

So, Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Directions (6-10):

6) Answer: A

Number of employees in IT department from A in 2016 = 150 * 140/100 = 210

Number of employees in IT department from B in 2016 = 200 * 140/100 = 280

Number of employees in IT department from C in 2016 = 100 * 140/100 = 140

Number of employees in IT department from D in 2016 = 200 * 140/100 = 280

Number of employees in IT department from E in 2016 = 150 * 140/100 = 210

Total number of employees in IT department in 2016

= 210 + 280 + 140 + 280 + 210 = 1120

Male employees in IT department in 2016 = 3/5 * 1120 = 672

Female employees in IT department in 2016 = 2/5 * 1120 = 448

Number of employees in Sales department from A in 2016 = 100 * 80/100 = 80

Number of employees in Sales department from B in 2016

= 250 * 80/100 = 200

Number of employees in Sales department from C in 2016

= 150 * 80/100 = 120

Number of employees in Sales department from D in 2016 = 100 * 80/100 = 80

Number of employees in Sales department from E in 2016

= 200 * 80/100 = 160

Total number of employees in sales department in 2016

= 80 + 200 + 120 + 80 + 160 = 640

Male employees in sales department in 2016 = 5/8 * 640 = 400

Female employees in sales department in 2016 = 3/8 * 640 = 240

Male employees in sales and IT department = 400 + 672 = 1072

Female employees in sales and IT department = 240 + 448 = 688

Difference = 1072 – 688 = 384

7) Answer: B

Total number of employees in HR department

= 200 + 100 + 250 + 150 + 250 = 950

Total number of employees in sales department

= 100 + 250 + 150 + 100 + 200 = 800

Difference = 950 – 800 = 150

8) Answer: B

Number of employees in HR department from C in 2016

= 250 * 110/100 = 275

Number of male employee in HR department from C in 2016

= 2/5 * 275 = 110

Number of female employees in HR department from C in 2016

= 275 * 3/5 = 165

Number of employees in HR department from D in 2016

= 150 * 120/100 = 180

Number of male employee in HR department from D in 2016

= 1/3 * 180 = 60

Number of female employees in HR department from D in 2016

= 2/3 * 180 = 120

Number of employees in HR department from E in 2016

= 250 * 120/100 = 300

Number of male employee in HR department from E in 2016

= 2/5 * 300 = 120

Number of female employees in HR department from E in 2016

= 3/5 * 300 = 180

Required percentage

= (110 + 60 + 120)/(165 + 120 + 180) * 100 = 62%

9) Answer: C

Number of male employee in IT department from A in 2015 = 150 * 7/15 = 70

Number of female employees in IT department from A in 2015

= 150 * 8/15 = 80

Number of male employee in IT department from C in 2015 = 3/5 * 100 = 60

Number of female employees in IT department from C in 2015 = 2/5 * 100 = 40

Number of male employee in IT department from E in 2015 = 2/3 * 150 = 100

Number of female employees in IT department from E in 2015 = 1/3 * 150 = 50

Required ratio = (80 + 40 + 50): (70 + 60 + 100)

=170: 230

=17: 23

10) Answer: B

Required ratio = (200 + 100 + 250): (200 + 150 + 100)

= 550: 450

= 11: 9
