7. Ten years ago, P was half of Q's age. If
the ratio of their present ages is 3:4,
what will be the total of their present
ages?
Let the present age of P and Q be 3x and 4x
respectively.
A. 45 B. 40
C. 35 D. 30
And : C. 35
Ten years ago,(3x – 10) = (4x – 10)
P was half of Q
> (3x – 10) = 1/ 2(4x – 10)
=> 6x – 20 = 4x – 10
=> 2x = 10
=> x = 5
lf of
total of their present ages = 3x +
4x = 7x
= 7 × 5 = 35 Q's age.

8. The word 'JUDGE' has 5 letters. It has 2
vowels (UE) in it
2 vowels can be grouped and considered
as a single letter. That is, JDG(UE).
Number of ways to arrange these letters
= 4!= 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24
To arrange these vowels among
themselves = 2! = 2
Total number of ways = 24 x 2 =48
Permutations : Arrangement of Objects
Combinations : Selection of Objects
In how many different ways can the
letters of the word 'JUDGE' be
arranged such that the vowels always
come together?
A. None of these B. 48
C. 32
Option B. 48
D. 64

9. Total number of outcomes possible when a
die is rolled = 6
Hence, total number of outcomes
possible when a die is rolled twice,
n(S) T= 6 × 6 = 36
E =Getting a sum of 9 when the two
dice fall = {(3, 6), {4, 5}, {5, 4}, (6, 3)}
E= 4
P(E) = (E)/ (T)=4/36=1/9
P(E) =1/9
Probability = Favorable No. of

A die is rolled twice. What is the
probability of getting a sum equal to 9?
A. 2/3 B. 2/9
C. 1/3
Ans: Option D
D. 1/9

10. Amount of work P can do in 1
day = 1/15
Amount of work Q can do in 1
day = 1/20
Amount of work P and Q can do
in 1 day = 1/15 + 1/20 = 7/60
Amount of work P and Q can
together do in 4 days = 4 × (7/60)
= 7/15
Fraction of work left = 1 – 7/15=
8/15
P is able to do a piece of work in 15 days and
Q can do the same work in 20 days. If they
can work together for 4 days, what is the
fraction of work left?
A. 8/15 B. 7/15
C. 11/15
Option A: 8/15
D. 2/11

14. Example 1. which of the alternative figures would correctly fill in the
blank space in the following series of numbers?
6,13,27,55,111, ___ 2, 12, 72, 432, ?
(A) 225 (B) 224
(C) 223 (D)231
(E) 230
Answer with Explanation :- 13 is greater than the double of 6 by 1.
similarly 27 is greater than the double of 13 by 1. 55 is greater than
the double of 27 by 1. 111 is greater than the double of 55 by 1. thus,
in blank space there would be 2*111+1= 223
Hence the correct answer is (C).

Insert the missing number.
34, 7, 37, 14, 40, 28, 43, (...)
A. 312 B. 42
C. 46 D. 56
Ans: Option D
17. Example 2. which one of the letter groups given below would replace the
question mark (?) in the letter series?
YCL, MQZ, AEN, ?
(A) OSB (B) PUE
(C) MPX (D) OTC
(E) PVF
Answer with explanation :- Last letter of the firs group is L and the first letter of second
group is M. Here, M is the next letter of L in alphabet. Similarly the last letter of the
second group is Z and the first letter of the third group is A. here A is the next letter of Z
in alphabet. Therefore, the first letter of blank space should be the next letter of N, which
is O. Besides, there is a gap of three letters between the first and second letters of each
group. therefore, second letter of blank space should be fourth letter after O. i.e it should
be S. in given alternatives only (A) is such alternative that has first letter as O and
second as S. Hence (A) is the correct answer.

19. Example 1 : A man Started to walk in West. After moving a distance he turned to
his right. After moving a distance he turned To his right. After moving a little he
turned in the end to his left. Now in which direction was he going?
(A) North
(B) South
(C) East
(D) West
Answer With Explanation : (A) The man started to walk from A towards West and
reached to B after moving a little distance. Then From B he turned to his right
(C) From (C) he turned to his right and reached at (D). at D he turned to his
left. So, he Was going in the north direction. See Below Image for better idea.
