Correct Answer: 75
Explanation:
From among those who passed Neeta is 22nd from the top and Kalyan is 22 +5 = 27th from the top and 34th from the bottom. Therefore, total number of students who passed the examination = 27 + 34 - 1 = 60.
Therefore, total number of students in the class = (60/4) X 5 = 75
Correct Answer: 41
Explanation:
Position of Rekha is 20th from the right which is occupied by Jaya after interchanging takes place and Jaya becomes 22nd from the left. Therefore, total number of students in the row.
(20 + 22) - 1 = 41
Correct Answer: 32
Explanation:
Dilip is 10th from the left and the same position is occupied by Jagdish after interchanging takes place and he becomes 23rd from the right.
Therefore, total number of student in the row = (10 + 23) - 1 = 32
Correct Answer: Data inadequate
Explanation:
The total number of students cannot be determined because the ranks of Sairam from top and bottom is given for different subjects. So, the given information is not sufficient. Hence, option (d) is correct.
Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
Given number = 53146872
After interchanging the digits,
New number = 68725314
Hence, fifth digit from the right end = 2
Correct Answer: Either T or Q
Explanation:
According to question,
R is heavier than S but lighter than T.
R > S But T > R
Then T > R > S
P is lighter than S.
S > P
Then
T > R > S, S > P ? T > R > S > P
But information about Q is not given, Hence, either T or Q is the heaviest.
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
According to the question,
A + B = C + D; B + D > A + C; A > B
Now, B + D > A + C and A > B
? B + D > A + C > B + C ? B + D > B + C ? D > C
Now, B + D > A + C ? B + D = A + C + K
Also, A + B = C + D ? B - D = C - A
? 2B = 2C + K ? B > C ? A > B > C
D > C
Clearly, each one of A, D and b has more amount than C. Hence, C has the least amount.
Correct Answer: Siya - Riya - Priya - Tiya - Diya
Explanation:
Given, Siya > Priya > Tiya ........(i)
Siya > Riya > Priya ........(ii)
and Riya > Tiya > Diya .........(iii)
On combining Eqs. (i), (ii) and (iii), we get
Siya > Riya > Priya > Tiya > Diya
Correct Answer: Z
Explanation:
As per question for sweetness,
U is sweeter than V.
1. U > V.
V is sweeter than Y.
2. V > Y.
W is less sweet than X.
3. X > W.
X is less sweet than Y
4. X < Y.
Y is less sweet than U.
5. Y < U.
Z is sweeter than U.
6. Z > U.
From 1 and 2,
7. U > V > Y.
From 6 and 7,
8. Z > U > V > Y.
from 4 and 8,
9. Z > U > V > Y > X
from 3 and 9,
Z > U > V > Y > X > W
Taste (sweet) Z, U, V, Y, X, W == (Z > U > V > Y > X > W)
From the above taste (sweet) ranking, we find that Z is the sweetest.
Correct Answer: U and Z
Explanation:
As per question for sweetness,
U is sweeter than V.
1. U > V.
V is sweeter than Y.
2. V > Y.
W is less sweet than X.
3. X > W.
X is less sweet than Y
4. X < Y.
Y is less sweet than U.
5. Y < U.
Z is sweeter than U.
6. Z > U.
From 1 and 2,
7. U > V > Y.
From 6 and 7,
8. Z > U > V > Y.
from 4 and 8,
9. Z > U > V > Y > X
from 3 and 9,
Z > U > V > Y > X > W
Taste (sweet) Z, U, V, Y, X, W == (Z > U > V > Y > X > W)
As per question for deadly,
U is more deadly than Z
1. U > Z.
V is less deadly than Z.
2. V < Z.
W is less deadly than U.
3. W < U.
X is more deadly than Y.
4. X > Y.
Y is more deadly than U.
5. Y > U.
Z is less deadly than W.
6. Z < W.
Now from 1 and 2,
7. U > Z > V
from 7 and 5,
8. Y > U > Z > V
from 4 and 8,
9. X > Y > U > Z > V
from 3, 6 and 9,
X > Y > U > W > Z > V
Effectiveness (deadly) X, Y, U, W, Z, V
It is clear that both Z and U are sweeter and more deadly than V.
