Answers :
Directions (1-3):
1) Answer: B
$# – 5.45pm
2) Answer: A
3) Answer: C
Directions (4-5):
4) Answer: E
Both are effect of common cause.
Both are effect of giving free education.
5) Answer: A
Statement I implies that all the agencies should accept the virtual ID.
Directions (6-10) :
6) Answer: B
For row 2: 108 27 4
108 27–> Condition 1 –> 108/27 =4
4 4 –> Condition 2—> 4+4=8 (Resultant of Second Row)
Sum of resultant of the first row and the second row = 878
Resultant of First Row = 878-8 = 870
For row 1: 17 13 X
17 13–> Condition 6 –> 17+13 = 30
30 X –> If X is even number, then both 30 and X are added or subtracted, but adding or subtracting we cannot get value as 870. So conditions 4, 5, and 6 are eliminated and at the same time condition 1 and are also not eligible. Only if we apply condition 3, then only we can get theanswer.
Condition 3 –> 30*X = 870
X = 870/30 = 29
7) Answer: D
For row 1: 12 24 31
12 24–> Condition 2 —> 12 + 24 = 36
36 31 –> Condition 3 –> 36*31 = 1116(Resultant of First Row)
For row 2: 15 30 18
15 30 –> Condition 5 –> 30-15 =15
15 18 –> Condition 5 –> 18 – 15= 3(Resultant of Second Row)
Sum of resultant of the first row and the second row = 1119
1119 -30 = 1089 = the square root of resultant sum = 33
8) Answer: B
For row 1: 87 86 12
87 86 –> Condition 4 –> 87-86 = 1
1 12 –> Condition 5 –> 12-1 = 11(Resultant of first Row)
X is double the value of resultant of thefirst row, So X is 22
For row 2: 168 8 22
168 8 –> Condition 2 –>168+8 =176
176 22 –> Condition 2 –>176+22= 198(resultant of Second row)
9) Answer: E
For row 1: 3 7 35 —- Condition 6 and 3 valid
For row 2: 24 31 64 —– Condition 3 and 2 valid
From that Only condition 3 is repeated more than once.
10) Answer: A
For row 1: 180 9 25
180 9 –> Condition 1 –> 180/9 = 20
20 25 –> Condition 3 –>20 * 25 = 500
For row 2: 27 14 39
27 14 –> Condition 4 –> 27-14 =13
13 39 –> Condition 6 –> 13 + 39= 52
Difference between the resultant of first row and the second row = 500-52 =448
