Answers :
As many persons were born before M was same as after the one who works in CTS. Not more than three persons were born between M and the one who works in CTS. M was born before the one who works in CTS. G was born in a month which has less than 31 days. The one who works in Tech Mahindra was born immediately after G. M does not work in Tech Mahindra.
T was born after G. Two persons were born between T and the one who works in IBM. As many persons were born between T and the one who works in CTS was same as between K and the one who works in Wipro, who was born after K. The one who works in TCS was born immediately before the one who works in Wipro. L was born before K.
Case 3 will be dropped because two persons were born between T and the one who works in IBM. The one who works in IBM was born immediately after R. Three persons were born between C and the one who works in Accenture. C was born after S, who does not work in Wipro. G does not work in HCL.More than one person was born between L and S.
Case 2: B will be dropped because Three persons were born between C and the one who works in Accenture.
Case 2: A will be dropped becauseMore than one person was born between L and S.
1) Answer: B
2) Answer: D
3) Answer: C
4) Answer: B
5) Answer: C
Directions (6-8):
6) Answer: D
We have:
G > M ≤ H < K; T ≥ D > B ≤ U; M ≥ R > T ≤ F; K ≥ W > L ≥ Q
After combiningabove given statements we have:
G > M ≤ H < K ≥ W > L ≥ Q; G > M ≥ R > T ≤ F; M ≥ R > T ≥ D > B ≤ U;
From I: G > T (G > M ≥ R > T) -> True
From II: L < G (G > M ≤ H < K ≥ W > L) -> False
From III: M > B (M ≥ R > T ≥ D > B) ->True
Hence, option D is thecorrect choice.
7) Answer: B
We have:
B = W ≤ Y > J; U > K ≤ R; G ≥ Q > E; D = M ≤ G < B; H > F ≥ D = U;
After combining above statements we have:
H > F ≥ D = U > K ≤ R; H > F ≥ D = M ≤ G ≥ Q > E; H > F ≥ D = M ≤ G < B = W ≤ Y > J;
From I: H> E (H > F ≥ D = M ≤ G ≥ Q > E) ->False
From II: D < Y (D = M ≤ G < B = W ≤ Y) ->True
From III: Y = D (D = M ≤ G < B = W ≤ Y) ->False
Hence, option B is the correct choice.
8) Answer: E
We have:
R ≥ T < W = K; Z ≤ U>B; H = F > Q ≤ V; B ≥ G < H = M; G ≥ R = S;
After combining above statements we have:
Z ≤ U > B ≥ G ≥ R ≥ T < W = K; S = R ≤ G < H = M;H = F > Q ≤ V;
From I: T < U (U > B ≥ G ≥ R ≥ T) ->True
From II: M ≥ S (S = R ≤ G < H = M) ->False
From III: S ≤ K (S = R ≥ T < W = K) ->False
Hence, option E is the correct choice.
Directions (9-10):
9) Answer: B
We have:
34265, 37596, 48367, 65284, 43827
After rearranging digits within 5-digit number we have:
23456, 35679, 34678, 24568, 23478
2nd lowest number after rearrangement = 23478
Sum of digits of “23478” = 24
2nd highest number after rearrangement = 34678
Sum of digits of “34678” = 28
Required difference = (28 – 24) = 4
Hence, option B is the correct choice.
10) Answer: E
We have:
34265, 37596, 48367, 65284, 43827
After ‘2’ is subtracted from 1st, 3rd& 5th digits and ‘1’ is subtracted from 2nd & 4th digits, we have:
13053, 16384, 27155, 44072, 22615
Thus, only one such number is possible = 16384.
Hence, option E is the correct choice.
