e) None

Answers:

Direction (1 – 5): 

1) Answer: b)                                          

From statement I:

People: P, Q, R, S, T and U.

1) R is heavier than only two people.

__>__> R > __> __ > __

2) P is heavier than U but lighter than Q.

3) S is not the heaviest.

Case -1 → Q > S > R > P > U

Case -2 → Q > P > R > U > S

T’s position is also can’t determine according the data

Therefore we can’t determine who is the second heaviest.

From statement II:

People: P, Q, R, S, T and U.

1) U is lighter than only two people.

2) R is lighter than U but heavier than S.

3) P is lighter than only Q.

Q > P > U > R >S

Here T’s position is not needed

Hence, we can see above P is 2nd heaviest among them.

Hence, data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.

2) Answer: d)

From I: City ‘X’ is to the east of city ‘W’ but both the cities ‘Y’ and ‘X’ are in the straight line.

Y can be to the east or west or south or north of ‘X’ as W is in west of ‘X’ but X and Y are in the straight line.

Therefore, data in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From II: No cities are to the north of ‘X’.

There is not any information given about ‘Y’ therefore we cannot answer.

Therefore, data in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From III: No cities except ‘X’ are on the same straight line on which ‘W’ is situated.

There is not any information given about ‘Y’ therefore we cannot answer.

Therefore, data in statement III alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From I and II:

Y can be to the east or west or South of ‘X’ as W is in west of ‘X’ but X and Y are in the straight line. There are no city in north of ‘X’.

Therefore, data in statement I and II together is not sufficient to answer the question.

From II and III:

There is not any information given about ‘Y’ therefore we cannot answer.

Therefore, data in statement II and III together is not sufficient to answer the question.

From I and III:

Y can be either south or north of ‘X’ as X and Y are in straight line but there are No cities except ‘X’ are on the same straight line on which ‘W’ is situated.

From I and II and III:

Here we can deduce that Y will be on South o X as Y cannot be at north of X as per data in statement II. And Y cannot be at east or west of X as per data in statement III. Now as per data given in statement I it is clear that X and Y are in straight line that condition only satisfy if ‘Y’ is in south of ‘X’

Therefore, Data together in all three statements are required to answer the question.

3) Answer: c)

I. Neither B nor D has Mathematics or Chemistry as their main subject, and one of them study Oriya and the other studies Punjabi.

 II. C and E study Kannada and English respectively, and one of them has Geography as their main subject.

Implies A studies Hindi language

III. The person who speaks Kannada or Hindi does not have Physics or Chemistry as their main subject.

Implies neither C nor A has chemistry as their main subject.

So E studies Chemistry

E, whose main subject is Chemistry has chosen English as the language.

So, all three statements are required to get the answer.

4) Answer: c)

From statement I:

__ >Anup> __ > __ > __

The informationsis not given about second lowest marks scorer.

From statement II:

__ >Anup>Sumit> __ > __ or

Anup> __ > Sumit> __ > __

The information is not given about second lowest marks scorer.

From statement III:

__ > Mahesh > __ >Dev> __

Clearly, Dev got second lowest marks.

On combining statement I and II:

__ >Anup>Sumit> __ > __

The information is not given about second lowest marks scorer.

Hence, only statement III is sufficient to answer the question.

5) Answer: b)

From Statement I: 23; 34; 45; 56; ……

So statement I alone does not sufficient to answer the question.

From Statement II: 1/6 x = 12 * 1/3 + 5 => x = 9 * 6 = 54

Therefore sum of two digits in the number = 5 + 4 = 9

Hence, only statement II is sufficient to answer the question.

Direction(6 – 9):

6) Answer: e)

7) Answer: b)

8) Answer: d)

9) Answer: c)

  1. Numbers are arranged in descending order after interchange.
  2. Words are arranged in ascending order according to number of letters.
  3. A word and a number are arranged simultaneously.

In the first step, the highest number is arranged leftmost side i.e. first position but after interchanging its digits and smallest word is arranged rightmost side i.e. last position.

Both word and number are arranged simultaneously and else all are shifted accordingly.

In step 2 next highest number is placed again at first position i.e. immediate left to the previously arranged number after interchanging its digit and next smallest word is placed at last position i.e. immediate right to previously arranged word and else all are shifted accordingly. The same process is followed till all the words and numbers are rearranged as all numbers at left side and all words according to letters at right side.

Input: type 71 toughen 59 tip 82 13 thanks to 68 table 46

Step I: 28 type 71 toughen 59 tip 13 thanks 68 table 46 to

Step II: 17 28 type toughen 59 13 thanks 68 table 46 to tip

Step III: 86 17 28 toughen 59 13 thanks table 46 to tip type

Step IV: 95 86 17 28 toughen 13 thanks 46 to tip type table

Step V: 64 95 86 17 28 toughen 13 to tip type table thanks

Step VI: 31 64 95 86 17 28 to tip type table thanks toughen

10) Answer: a)

In the word “COPYRIGHTED” if the letters in odd numbered positions are changed to previous letter in alphabet series and the letters in even numbered positions are changed to next letter in alphabet series. Then the word becomes “BPOZQJFISFC”. So, only one letter gets repeated.
