A road roller makes a surface level flat which has a height of 18 and diameter 6, and it revolves for 300 revolutions. Area of the land covered in 300 revolutions. A road roller is cylindrical in shape, so height of the cylinder is 18 and diameter of the cylinder is 6. When a road roller levels a surface, it is done by the lateral surface area of its cylindrical shape. Thus the lateral surface area of a cylinder is 2∏rh=2*3.14*18*3=339.12Now, the area that it levels by 300 revolution is 339.12*300=101736Ans: 10173621. 20 students in a class, half of students are boys. A 7 member committee is to formed, out of which 6 are to be girls. ColA: probability that 7th member is also a girl ColB: 3/5

20 students and half of them is boys. So 10 boys and 10 girls. Now a 7 member committee is formed which has already 6 girls in it. So, among 10 girls, 6 are in the committee and 4 are not in the committee. Now, no boys yet included in the committee, so number of boys outside the committee is 10. therefore, number of students who are not in the committee is (10 boys+4girls)=14. when, the 7th member of the committee is to be a girl, the probability shall be equal to total number of girls not in the committee/number of students not in the committee, which is 4/14=2/7Now, 2/7=0.28 and 3/5=0.6Thus, ColA<ColBAns: B22.x^2>-y ColA:x ColB:y Let us consider 2 different cases with negative and positive values of x and yWhen, x=y=22^2>-2 (True)x=y=-2(-2)^2>-(-2) or 4>2(True)When x>y, x=3, y=23^2>-2 (True)x=-2, y=-3(-2)^2>-(-3) or 4>3 (True)Thus for the inequation, x^2> -y, we can hav two outcomes when x=y and x>y, hence this is a double case.Ans: D23.

A-Architects, NA-Non architects.1 year back, A/NA = x/3xNow, (x+50)/(3x+10) = 1/2Solving you get x=90.Total no. of people currently = (x+50)+(3x+10)=420.--- If it rains on Saturday, then the probability of getting a Concert postponed is 0.95. Col A: If it doesn’t rain on Saturday, then the probability of getting Concert not postponed Col B: 0.03 Ans : to know the probability of getting concert not postponed if it will not rain, you need to know the probability of rain. -> Dor you consider that if it will not rain, the concert will be done at 100% -> A ---Probability of an event H happening is 0.6Probability of an event J happening is 0.5 [ they are independent ] col a: probability of event H happening but J not happeningcol b: 1/6 Ans : But they have asked for a union b(complement) which would be a+b(comp)-a*b(comp) for independent.right?so 0.6 +.5-(.6*.5)= 0.8 Col A: P( Jc) =1-0.5=0.5P(H or Jc) = P(H) + P( Jc ) -P( H)* P( Jc )= 0.6 +0.5 -0.6*0.5=1.1 - 0.3 = 0.8 =4/5Col B: 1/6A is greater.

Another solution is , A=(a, b-3) ,B=(a, b) ,C=(a + 5, b-3) then distance AB(X,Y)=(a-a,b-b+3)=(0,3) so height =3 again distance BC(X,Y)=(a+5-a,b-3-b+3)=(5,0) so leg =5 and finally area =3*5/2=7.5 --- If a person ‘A’ did 1/5th of the some work and another person ‘B’ did 1/6th of remaining work.Then, what is the work still left? Let , total work is 30 days. so A did 30*1/5=6 days , remaining (30-6)=24 then B did 24*1/6=4 days . together A & B did =6+4=10 days . Finally the work is still left =(30-10)/30=2/3 A do 1/5 of the work. So, B do (4/5)*(1/6)=2/15 of the work. Total work done by A and B=1/5+2/15=1/3. So, the undone work =1-1/3=2/3. ---In a group, 7 out of every 15 students admitted in an university and one of them is absent everyday. If 315 students were admitted last month,

If the length of the third side is given as 8, thenCol A: x+yCol B: 90Solution: Again it is obvious It will form an Obtuse Triangle, And X and Y are the smaller angles as they are opposite to the smaller sidesAnd by Rule the Sum of Smaller angles will be less than 90 in Obtuse triangle.Thus Ans B 4. If the remainder when 10^32 is divided by 11 is 'R', thenCol A: R+2

Col B: 3Solution : First of All Its a very good QuestionRULE : When ever 10^x is divided by 11 the Quotient will always be 9.09*10^(x-2) For remainder: if x is even it will be 1 and if x is odd it will be 10 always.So here since x is even = 32 we will have remainder as 1So R + 2 = 1+2 = 3So C is the answer. 5. Given A's speed is 50 km/h and B's speed is 55 km/h.

Time = Distance / Speed = 250 / 55 = 4.54Hrs Ans :4.54 6. In a shop, if the discount provided is 40% on one jacket and 20% on one shirt, thenCol A: What is the percentage reduction in discount on two jackets and one shirtCol B: 35% Solution : Consider 3 cases hereCase 1 : J > SCase 2 : J = SCase 3 : J < S Case 1 : J = 200 and S = 100 Now 2 jackets = 200 * 2 = 400 it has a discount of 40% = 400 - 400 *40/100 = 240One Shirt = 100 and it has a discount of 20% = 100 - 100 * 20/100 = 80Total amount paid with discount = 320Total Amount paid if NO discount = 500(400+100) Percentage reduction in discount = [500 - 320] / 500 * 100 = 180 / 500 *100 = 36% Case 1 = Answer is A Case 2 : J = 100 & S = 100 Now 2 jackets = 100 * 2 = 200 it has a discount of 40% = 200 - 200 *40/100 = 120One Shirt = 100 and it has a discount of 20% = 100 - 100 * 20/100 = 80Total amount paid with discount = 120Total Amount paid if NO discount = 300(200+100) Percentage reduction in discount = [300 - 200] / 300 * 100 = 100 / 300 *100 = 33.3% Case 2 = Answer is B Thus No Need to Solve Case 3 here we get D as Answer! 7. If R = Set of prime numbers from 1 to 50,

S = Set of multiples of 15 from 10 to 50,T = Set of odd numbers from 1 to 50, thenhow numbers will be common in all the three sets?Solution: Again No Need to Find Everything hereReading the question carefully we u will Notice S And R can never have anything in Common as A multiple of any Number will not be a Prime Number!Thus Answer will be D 8. Given numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5. What is the probabilty of choosing two numbers at random from the given numbers such that the sum of the two numbers must be an even number?Solution : Indirectly In this question we are asked to find the probability of Finding the probability of two ODD numbers. Because only two odd numbers can give a sum which is even. Thus Sample Space here is 5C2 as we are choosing 2 numbers from 5 = 5*4/2*1 = 10And picking 2 odd numbers from 3 is equal to 3C2 = 3 * 2 / 2 * 1 = 3 Thus Final probability = 3C2 / 5C2 = 3 / 10 9. Given a series -9, 10, -11, 12, -13. . . . . . . . . . .80, thenCol A: The sum of first 27 numbersCol B: -22Solution : There are many ways to solve this one What I feel best is this:When we add First two terms we get -9 + 10 = 1Similarly next two terms we get -10 + 11 = 1So when we added First Four term we get 4 as the answer.When add next two that total 6 we get it as 3 So the rule is When u add n such term the sum will always be equal to n/2 Thus when we add First 26 numbers in the series we will get 13 as the answer and 27 term in the series will be 35 = (27 - (-9) -1(for inclusive))[We subtracted here as it is negative number starting series] and the sign would be negative as all the odd numbers are negative. Thus Finally Sum = 13 + (-35) = -22 Answer C 1. If the retail price is 35% more than wholesale price and if the retailer sells it with a profit of 21% with that of wholesale price, then what percentage of discount did he offer to the customer?let whole price be 100retail price = 135hes sellin at 121discount =135-121/135 * 100 =10.3% 2.
