Some statements are given followed by two conclusions. You have to consider the statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the following conclusions follow from the given statements:
Statements: No symbol is letter. All expression are letter. Some symbols are word.
Conclusions: I. No word is letter. II. Some symbols being expression is possibility.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (D) Neither I nor II follows
Explanation
Since no symbol is a letter and all expressions are letters, the set of expressions is completely contained within the set of letters, which is entirely disjoint from symbols. Thus, it is impossible for any symbol to be an expression, making conclusion II false. For conclusion I, some symbols are words, but the remaining part of words can overlap with letters, so it is not definite that no word is a letter.

Answer: (D) Neither I nor II follows
Explanation
The premise states that all keys are answers and some logic are answers. This allows keys and logic to either overlap partially, overlap completely, or be disjoint. Neither All keys are logic nor No keys are logic is definitely true. Furthermore, All and No do not form a complementary pair in standard categorical logic, so neither conclusion follows.

Answer: (E) Both I and II follow
Explanation
Since all numbers are digits and some numbers are points, the elements common to numbers and points must also be digits, which directly implies some points are digits. For conclusion II, since there are no negative statements limiting marks and numbers, a Venn arrangement where all marks lie inside numbers satisfies all given statements, making it a valid possibility.

Answer: (D) 5m
Explanation
Taking point B as the reference origin (0, 0), the position coordinates of the points are derived step-by-step:
Point E is 15m east of B, giving E = (15, 0).
Point G is 20m north of E, giving G = (15, 20).
Point K is 10m east of G, giving K = (25, 20).
Point M is 30m south of K, giving M = (25, -10).
Point P is 20m west of M, giving P = (5, -10).
Point L is 10m north of P, giving L = (5, 0).
Since point B is at (0, 0) and point L is at (5, 0), both points lie on the same horizontal line. The distance between B and L is simply 5 - 0 = 5m.

Answer: (A) 10m
Explanation
Taking point E as the reference coordinate (15, 0):
Point G is 20m north of E, so G = (15, 20).
Point K is 10m east of G, so K = (25, 20).
Point M is 30m south of K, so M = (25, -10).
Since point Z is located 10m north of point M, its coordinates are (25, -10 + 10) = (25, 0).
Both point E(15, 0) and point Z(25, 0) lie along the same horizontal axis. Therefore, the direct distance between point E and point Z is 25 - 15 = 10m.

The upstream speed of a boat is 18km / hr which is 500% more than the speed of stream. Find how much distance boat will cover in 3 hours while travelling in downstream.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (C) 72km
Explanation
Let the speed of the stream be y km/h. Since the upstream speed is 500% more than the stream speed, upstream speed = y + 5y = 6y = 18 km/h, which gives y = 3 km/h.
The speed of the boat in still water x = upstream speed + y = 18 + 3 = 21 km/h.
Downstream speed = x + y = 21 + 3 = 24 km/h.
Distance covered downstream in 3 hours = 24 × 3 = 72 km.

● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (D) 118
Explanation
Subtracting consecutive prime numbers starting from 5 in reverse order reveals the correct pattern:
172 - 5 = 167
167 - 7 = 160
160 - 11 = 149
149 - 13 = 136
136 - 17 = 119
119 - 19 = 100
The given term 118 breaks this difference pattern as the difference between 136 and 118 is 18 instead of 17, and the difference between 118 and 100 is 18 instead of 19. Replacing 118 with 119 restores the sequence of prime differences.

Answer: (C) 15
Explanation
The sequence of differences between consecutive terms follows alternating cubes and squares of consecutive odd numbers:
16 + 1³ = 16 + 1 = 17
17 + 3² = 17 + 9 = 26
26 + 5³ = 26 + 125 = 151

Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (B) Rs. 1076
Explanation
Let the Marked Price be MP.
Since 80% of MP = Rs. 1020, MP = 1020 / 0.80 = Rs. 1275.
With a discount of Rs. 199, New Selling Price = 1275 - 199 = Rs. 1076.

Answer: (C) 35 yr.
Explanation
Age four years hence for A = 32 + 4 = 36 years.
Age four years hence for B = 23 + 4 = 27 years.
Sum of ages of A, B, and C four years hence = 98 years.
Age of C four years hence = 98 - (36 + 27) = 35 years.

Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (B) 9 months
Explanation
Profit share of A = 21000 - 12000 = Rs. 9000.
Ratio of profit share of A to B = 9000 : 12000 = 3 : 4.
Ratio of investment × time = (12000 × X) / (16000 × 9) = 12X / 144 = X / 12.
Equating the two ratios: X / 12 = 3 / 4, which gives X = 9 months.

A mixture of milk and water contains 60% milk and remaining water. How much water should be added (in percentage) in mixture to reverse the proportion of milk and water?
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (E) 50%
Explanation
Let total initial mixture = 100 units. Milk = 60 units, Water = 40 units.
To reverse the proportion, the ratio of milk to water must become 40 : 60 = 2 : 3.
Since milk quantity remains constant at 60 units, 2 units correspond to 60, making 1 unit = 30.
New water quantity = 3 × 30 = 90 units.
Water to be added = 90 - 40 = 50 units.
Percentage of water added relative to initial mixture = (50 / 100) × 100 = 50%.

● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (E) Rs. 4500
Explanation
Simple Interest for 2 years at 8% per annum = P × 8 × 2 / 100 = 0.16 P.
Compound Interest for 2 years at 10% per annum = P × ((1 + 10/100)² - 1) = 0.21 P.
Difference = 0.21 P - 0.16 P = 0.05 P.
Given 0.05 P = 225, P = 225 / 0.05 = Rs. 4500.
