STATEMENT – ASSUMPTIONS

In each of the following questions a statement is followed by two

assumptions numbered 1 and 2. An assumption is something

that is supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the

statement and the following assumptions and decide which of

the assumptions is implicit in the statement.

Give answer (a) If only assumption 1 is implicit.

Give answer (b) If only assumption 2 is implicit.

Give answer (c) If either assumption1 or 2 is implicit.

Give answer (d) If neither assumption1 nor 2 is implicit.

Give answer (e) If both assumptions 1 and 2 are implicit.

1) Statement : Vitamin E tablets improve circulation, keep

your complexion in a glowing condition.

Assumptions : 1) People like a glowing complexion.

2) Complexion becomes dull in the absence of circulation.

Answer : e.

Explanation : Both assumptions are implicit. Generally, only those good features of a product are highlighted which people crave for. So, 1 is implicit. If circulation is improved, complexion grows. Hence, 2 is also implicit. Statement :

2) Statement : “The function will start at 6 pm.” You are

requested to take your seats before 6 pm.

Assumptions : 1) Function will start as scheduled.

2) If an invitee is not in his seat before 6 pm, the

function will not start.

Page 14: Non-verbal RRB Telugu

www.sakshieducation.com

www.sakshieducation.com

Answer : a.

Explanation : It is mentioned in the invitation that you are requested

to take your seats

before 6 pm. It means that function will start as scheduled.

Hence, assumption 1 is implicit. It is not given that the function will not

start if invitees do not come in-time.

3) Statement : The X passenger car manufacturing company

announced a sharp reduction in the prices of their luxury cars.

Assumptions : 1) There may be an increase in the sale of their luxury

cars.

2) The other such car manufacturers may also reduce their

prices.

Answer : a.

Explanation : The price of any product is lowered assuming that its

demand will increase. Therefore, assumption 1 is implicit. There is no

information about the other manufacturers, so assumption 2 is not

implicit.

4) Statement : “if you want to give any advertisement, give it in

the newspaper A.” – X tells Y.

Assumptions : 1) Y wants to publicize his products.

2) Newspaper A has a wide circulation.

Answer : b.

Explanation : The word ‘If’ in the statement shows that Y may or may not

want to publicise his products. So, 1 is not implicit. X advised that

advertisements be given in newspaper A. This means that A will help

advertise better i.e. it has wider circulation. So, 2 is implicit.

5) statement : Patient’s condition would improve after this

operation.

Assumptions : 1) The patient can be operated upon in this condition.

2) The patient can’t be operated upon in this condition.

Answer : a

Page 15: Non-verbal RRB Telugu

www.sakshieducation.com

www.sakshieducation.com

Explanation : It is very much implied in the statement that the patient is

in a position to be operated upon. Therefore, assumption 1 is implicit. But,

assumption 2 is not implicit as it is just opposite to assumption 1.

6) Statement : The government has decided to allow the

shopping complexes to remain open till midnight to reduce

crowding of shoppers in these complexes during the weekends.

Assumptions : 1) The sales of these shopping complexes may increase

generating revenue for the govt.

2) People may still prefer to shop during the weekends.

Answer : d.

Explanation : The objective of Govt. behind taking this decision is to

facilitate people to shop at their leisure times during the late evening hours

and not to increase its revenue. Hence, 1 is not implicit. No such

information like people are interested to shop during only weekends. So, 2

is also not implicit.

7) statement : The state government has decided to appoint

thousand primary school teachers during next financial year.

Assumptions : 1) There are enough schools in the state to accommodate

four thousand primary school teachers during the next financial year.

2) The eligible candidates may not be interested to apply as

the Govt. may not finally appoint such a large number of primary school

teachers.

Answer : a.

Explanation : As per the requirement of teachers in primary school only,

the Govt. may have taken such decision. So, 1 is implicit. Assumption 2 is

absurd as it is against the govt.’s decision.

8) Statement : Railway officials have started ten new trains and

increased the frequency of fourteen trains.

Assumptions : 1) The existing trains are not sufficient to provide

accommodation to all passengers.

2) The new and additional trains would have sufficient

passengers so that they will be economically viable.

Answer : e.

Page 16: Non-verbal RRB Telugu

www.sakshieducation.com

www.sakshieducation.com

Explanation : Such decisions are always taken keeping in mind the public

requirements and their economic viability for the concerned department

i.e. railways. So, both 1 and 2 are implicit.

9) Statement : A advises B – ‘If you want to study English, join

institute ‘Y’.

Assumptions : 1) Institute ‘Y’ provides good coaching for English.

2) B listens to A’s advice.

Answer : e.

Explanation : Since A advises B to join institute ‘Y’ to study English,

hence it is assumed that institute ‘Y’ provides good coaching for English.

Secondly, it is also assumed that B listens to A’s advice as it is the objective

behind giving the advice.

10) Statement : In the recently imposed war, global public

opinion was dishonored by the economically strong and

scientifically advanced superpower. Assumptions : 1)

Superpowers need not take any heed of global public opinion.

2) Global public opinion should have been against the

imposition of war.

Answer : d .

Explanation : Dishonouring the global public opinion by the superpower

implies that the speaker must be assuming that global public opinion is

against the imposition of war. But note that 2 says “….should have been…”

hence, not implicit. 1 is not implicit either. It is, in fact, contrary to the

speaker’s assumption.

11) Statement : “Graduates with first-class are eligible to apply

for the admission to MBA courses in our institute.” – An

advertisement by a management institute.

Assumptions : 1) There are plenty of first class graduates who are likely

to apply for admission to MBA.

2) Only those who are first-class graduates can cope up with

the studies for MBA courses.

Page 17: Non-verbal RRB Telugu

www.sakshieducation.com

www.sakshieducation.com

Answer : a.

Explanation : Assumption 1 is obvious; that is why graduates with first

class only are being considered eligible for the course. 2 is not implicit

because of the word ‘only’.

12) Statement : Traffic jams on most of the roads in the city have

become a regular feature during monsoon.

Assumptions : 1) Material used for road construction cannot withstand

the fury of monsoon resulting into innumerable potholes on the roads.

2) Number of vehicles coming on the roads is much more in

monsoon as compared to other seasons.

Answer : a

Explanation : The problem of traffic jams arises during monsoons not

because of increased number of vehicles but due to slow movement of

traffic on account of bad roads. We can not say directly that number of

vehicles is more in monsoon as compared to other seasons. So, only 1 is

implicit.

13) Statement : If you want to get a good job you must have at

least the basic knowledge of computers.

Assumptions : 1) Computer knowledge has been made an essential

criterion by most of the companies nowadays.

2) All good jobs involve use of computers.

Answer : a.

Explanation : Assumption 1 is implicit. It is this that makes the speaker

say ‘you must have at least the basic knowledge of computers. 2 is not

implicit because of the word ‘All’.

14) Statement : ‘Use ‘Fair and Lovely” fairness cream for fair

complexion.” – an advertisement.

Assumptions : 1) people respond to the advertisements.

2) People like to use cream for fair complexion.

Answer : e.

Explanation : Advertisement has been used assuming that product is

used by people for various uses. Secondly, advertisements are used for

publicity because people respond positively to the advertisements. Hence,

assumption 1 and 2 are implicit.

15) Statement : “This bridge was built at the cost of Rs. 128

crores and even civil bus service is not utilizing it, what a pity to

see it grossly underutilized.” – A citizen’s view on a new flyover

linking east and west sides of suburb.

Assumptions : 1) The building of such bridges does not serve any public

objective.

2) There has to be some accountability and utility of money

spent on public projects.

Answer : b.

Data sufficiency

Directions ( 1 – 15 ) : Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II are given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both statements and Give answer A) If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question. Give answer B) If the 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. Give answer C) If the data in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question. Give answer D) If the data in both the statements I and II are not sufficient to answer the question. Give answer E) if the data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question. 1) Who among P, Q, R, S, T, V and W is the shortest? I. S is taller than T, P and W and is not the tallest. II. T is shorter than Q but is not the shortest. Answer : D. Explanation : From statement I —> S > T, P and W. S is not the tallest. So, Q or R or V is the tallest. And the shortest may be T or P or W. From statement II —> T < Q, but not the shortest. So, the shortest may be P or W or S or R or V. From both the statements —> The shortest may be T or P or W. So, we can not decide who is the shortest. 2) What is Mrudula’s rank from top in a class of twenty students? I. Radhika is fifth from the top and two ranks above Mrudula. II. Amol is tenth from the bottom and three ranks below Mrudula. Answer : C. Explanation : From statement I —> Mrudula’s rank from the top = 7th ( 5 + 2 ). So, the given data is sufficient to answer the question.

Page 43: Non-verbal RRB Telugu

www.sakshieducation.com

www.sakshieducation.com

From statement II —> Mrudula’s rank from the top = Amol’s rank from the top ( 11th ) – 3 = 8th (Amol’s rank from the bottom —> 10th , and 10 students are there above Amol. So, his rank is 11th from the top.) Second statement alone is also sufficient to answer the question. 3) What is T’s position with respect of W when T, W, R, J and M are sitting around a circle facing the centre? I. R is second to the left of M and second to the right of W. II. J is not an immediate neighbour of M. Answer : E. Explanation : From statement I ─>

From statement I & II ─>

Hence, from both the statements we can say T is second to the left or third to the right of W. 4) Who among P, Q, R, S and T is the shortest? I. R, though not the shortest, is shorter than only Q. II. S, though not as tall as P, is not the shortest.

Page 44: Non-verbal RRB Telugu

www.sakshieducation.com

www.sakshieducation.com

Answer : E. Explanation: From statement I ─> Q > R > _ > _ > _. ( R is shorter than only Q means only Q is taller R and P, S & T are shorter than R.) From statement II ─> P > S > _ > _ > _ or _ > P > S > _ > _ or _ > _ > P > S > _ . From both the statements I & II ─> Q > R > P > S > _. ─> Q > R > P > S > T. So, T is the shortest. 5) Who among M, N, O, P and Q is the youngest? I. N, the second youngest, is younger than Q, O and M. II. O, the second oldest, is older than N. Answer : A. Explanation : From statement I ─> Q, O and M are older than N and N is the second youngest. So, the other person P is the youngest. The order may be Q > O > M > N > P. From statement II ─> _ > O > N > _ > _. So, there is no clue about the youngest. 6) What does ‘pe’ mean in a code language? I. ‘Na si la lo’ means ‘you may go now’ and ‘ne si na pe’ means ‘he may go there’ in that code language. II. ‘Ki se pe bo’ means ‘come there and see’ and ‘se ni bo ki’ means ‘come here and see’ in that code language. Answer: B. Explanation : From statement I na si la lo ─> you may go now ne si na pe ─> he may go there na si = may go ne pe = he there. So, pe = he or there. From statement II Ki se pe bo ─> come there and see se ni bo ki ─> come here and see ki se bo = come and see So, pe = there. 7) How many siblings does Rukmini have? I. Rukmini has only one brother.

www.sakshieducation.com

Answer : C. Explanation : “Rukmini has only one brother” means Rukmini has only one sibling. So, we can answer the question by using statement I. “Rukmini is the only daughter of her parents” means Rukmini has no sibling. So, we can answer the question by using statement II also. 8) B is brother of A . How is A related to M? I. M has two sons and one daughter. II. M has three children, out of which one is B. Answer : D. Explanation : From both I and II , M is a parent , he or she has 3 children, among them B is a brother of A. Here, gender of A is not given. So, A is either son or daughter to M. Both data are not sufficient to answer the question. 9) What does ‘ta’ mean in a code language? I. ‘pa ta ja’ means ‘over and above’ in that code language. II. ‘ho ka pa’ means ‘come over here’ in that code language. Answer : D. Explanation : From explanation I and II ─> pa ta ja ─> over and above ho ka pa ─> come over here ‘pa’ means ‘over’ and ta means ‘and’ or ‘above’. So, we can not answer the question by using both statements. 10) Pole X is in which direction with respect to pole Y? I. Pole H is to the north-east of pole X and to the north of pole Y. II. Pole R is to the east of pole X and to the north of pole Y. Answer : B. Explanation : Base diagram

13. What is the number of triangles that can be formed whose vertices are the vertices of an

octagon but have only one side common with that of octagon?

When the triangles are drawn in an octagon with vertices same as those of the octagon and having one side common to that of the octagon, the figure will appear as shown in (Fig. 1).

Now, we shall first consider the triangles having only one side AB common with octagon ABCDEFGH and having vertices common with the octagon (See Fig. 2).Such triangles are ABD, ABE, ABF and ABG i.e. 4 in number.

Page 110: Non-verbal RRB Telugu

www.sakshieducation.com

www.sakshieducation.com

Similarly, the triangles having only one side BC common with the octagon and also having vertices common with the octagon are BCE, BCF, BCG and BCH (as shown in Fig. 3). i.e. There are 4 such triangles.

This way, we have 4 triangles for each side of the octagon. Thus, there are 8 x 4 = 32 such triangles.

14. Find the number of triangles in the given figure.

The figure may be labelled as shown.

The simplest triangles are BFG, CGH, EFM, FMG, GMN, GHN, HNI, LMK, MNK and KNJ i.e. 10 in number.

The triangles composed of two components each are AGH, BHG, HBF, BFG, HFG, BCF, CJF, CJE, JEF, CFE and JED i.e. 11 in number.

The triangles composed of four components each are ABG, CBG, BCE and CED i.e. 4 in number.

Total number of triangles in the given figure = 14 + 11 + 4 = 29.

16. Find the number of triangles in the given figure.

The figure may be labeled as shown.

The simplest triangles are ABJ, ACJ, BDH, DHF, CIE and GIE i.e. 6 in number.

The triangles composed of two components each are ABC, BDF, CEG, BHJ, JHK, JKI and CJI i.e. 7 in number.

There is only one triangle JHI which is composed of four components.
