Q:

How old are you if you are born in 1995?

A) 22	B) 23
C) 24	D) 25

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 23

Explanation:

Calculating Age has 2 conditions. Let your Birthday is on January 1st.

1. If the month in which you are born is completed in the present year i.e, your birthday, then

Your Age = Present year - Year you are born

As of now, present year = 2018

i.e, Age = 2018 - 1995 = 23 years.

2. If the month in which you are born is not completed in the present year i.e, your birthday, then

Your Age = Last year - Year you are born

As of now, present year = 2018

i.e, Age = 2017 - 1995 = 22 years.

A) L	B) M
C) N	D) O

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) L

Explanation:

The Logic followed in the given puzzle is :

L x P = 12 x 16 = 192 (Alphabetical numbers of L & P)

P x T = 16 x 20 = 320 (Alphabetical numbers of P & T)

Similarly, K x () = 132 => () = 132/11 = 12 => L

Q:

A girl counted in the following way on the fingers of her left hand : She started by calling the thumb 1, the index finger 2, middle finger 3, ring finger 4, little finger 5 and then reversed direction calling the ring finger 6, middle finger 7 and so on. She counted upto 1995. She ended counting on which finger ?

A) Thumb	B) Index finger
C) Ring finger	D) Middle finger

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Middle finger

Explanation:

Clearly, while counting the numbers associated to the thumb will be 1,9,17,25,.........
i.e., numbers of the form (8n + 1 ).
where n=1,2,3...
Since 1994 = 249 × 8 + 2, so 1993 shall correspond to the thumb and 1994 to the index finger and 1995 to the middle finger.

Q:

The following line graph gives the ratio of the amounts of imports by a company to the amount of exports from that company over the period from 1995 to 2001.

Ratio of Value of Imports to Exports by a Company Over the Years.

1. If the imports in 1998 was Rs. 250 crores and the total exports in the years 1998 and 1999 together was Rs. 500 crores, then the imports in 1999 was ?

A. Rs. 250 cr B. Rs. 300 cr C. Rs. 357 cr D. Rs. 420 cr

2. The imports were minimum proportionate to the exports of the company in the year ?

A. 1995 B. 1996 C. 1997 D. 2000

3. What was the percentage increase in imports from 1997 to 1998 ?

A. 72 B. 56 C. 28 D. Data Inadequate

4. If the imports of the company in 1996 was Rs. 272 crores, the exports from the company in 1996 was ?

A. Rs. 370 cr B. Rs. 320 cr C. Rs. 280 cr D. Rs. 275 cr

5. In how many of the given years were the exports more than the imports ?

A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 4

Answer

1. ANSWER : D

Explanation - The ratio of imports to exports for the years 1998 and 1999 are 1.25 and 1.40 respectively.

Let the exports in the year 1999 = Rs. x crores.

Then, the exports in the year 1998 = Rs. (500 - x) crores.

$\frac{250}{500 - x} = 1.25 = > x = 300 crores$ [ Using ratio for 1998 ]

Thus, the exports in the year 1999 = Rs. 300 crores.

Let the imports in the year 1999 = Rs. y crores.

Then, Imports in the year 1999 = $\frac{y}{300} = 1.4 = > y = 420$ = Rs. 420 crores.

2. ANSWER : C

Explanation - The imports are minimum proportionate to the exports implies that the ratio of the value of imports to exports has the minimum value.

Now, this ratio has a minimum value 0.35 in 1997, i.e., the imports are minimum proportionate to the exports in 1997.

3. ANSWER : D

Explanation - The graph gives only the ratio of imports to exports for different years. To find the percentage increase in imports from 1997 to 1998, we require more details such as the value of imports or exports during these years.

Hence, the data is inadequate to answer this question.

4. ANSWER : B

Explanation - Ratio of imports to exports in the year 1996 = 0.85.

Let the exports in 1996 = Rs. x crores.

Then , $\frac{272}{x} = 0.85 = > x = 320$

Exports in 1996 = Rs. 320 crores.

5. ANSWER : D

Explanation - The exports are more than the imports imply that the ratio of value of imports to exports is less than 1.Now, this ratio is less than 1 in years 1995, 1996, 1997 and 2000.

Thus, there are four such years.

A. 1325 B. 1195 C. 1265 D. 1235

5. During the period between 1995 and 2000, the total number of Operators who left the Company is what percent of total number of Operators who joined the Company?

A. 19% B. 21% C. 27% D. 29%

Answer

1. ANSWER : D

Explanation - Required difference

= (272 + 240 + 236 + 256 + 288) - (200 + 224 + 248 + 272 + 260)

= 88.

2. ANSWER : B

Explanation - Total number of Peons working in the Company in 1999

= (820 + 184 + 152 + 196 + 224) - (96 + 88 + 80 + 120)

= 1192.

3. ANSWER : A

Explanation - Number of Managers working in the Company:

In 1995 = 760.
In 2000 = (760 + 280 + 179 + 148 + 160 + 193) - (120 + 92 + 88 + 72 + 96)= 1252.

Therefore, Percentage increase in the number of Managers

= $\frac{(1252 - 760)}{760} \times 100$ %= 64.74%

Number of Technicians working in the Company:
In 1995 = 1200.
In 2000 = (1200 + 272 + 240 + 236 + 256 + 288) - (120 + 128 + 96 + 100 +112) = 1936.

Therefore, Percentage increase in the number of Technicians

= $\frac{(1936 - 1200)}{1200} \times 100$ % = 61.33%

Number of Operators working in the Company:

In 1995 = 880.
In 2000 = (880 + 256 + 240 + 208 + 192 + 248) - (104 + 120 + 100 + 112 + 144) = 1444.

Therefore, Percentage increase in the number of Operators

= $\frac{(1444 - 880)}{880} \times 100$ % = 64.09%

Number of Accountants working in the Company:

In 1995 = 1160.
In 2000 = (1160 + 200 + 224 + 248 + 272 + 260) - (100 + 104 + 96 + 88 + 92) = 1884.

Therefore, Percentage increase in the number of Accountants

= $\frac{(1884 - 1160)}{1160} \times 100$ % = 62.14%

Number of Peons working in the Company:

In 1995 = 820.
In 2000 = (820 + 184 + 152 + 196 + 224 + 200) - (96 + 88 + 80 + 120 + 104) = 1288.

Therefore, Percentage increase in the number of Peons

= $\frac{(1288 - 820)}{820} \times 100$ % = 57.07%

Clearly, the percentage increase is maximum in case of Managers.

4. ANSWER : B

Explanation - Total number of employees of various categories working in the Company in 1997 are:

Managers = (760 + 280 + 179) - (120 + 92) = 1007.

Technicians = (1200 + 272 + 240) - (120 + 128) = 1464.

Operators = (880 + 256 + 240) - (104 + 120) = 1152.

Accountants = (1160 + 200 + 224) - (100 + 104) = 1380.

Peons = (820 + 184 + 152) - (96 + 88) = 972.

Therefore, Pooled average of all the five categories of employees working in the Company in 1997 = 1/5 x (1007 + 1464 + 1152 + 1380 + 972)

= 1/5 x (5975)

= 1195.

5. ANSWER : D

Explanation - Total number of Operators who left the Company during 1995 - 2000

= (104 + 120 + 100 + 112 + 144)

= 580.

Total number of Operators who joined the Company during 1995 - 2000

= (880 + 256 + 240 + 208 + 192 + 248

= 2024.

Therefore, Required Percentage

= (580/2024)x100% = 28.66% ~= 29%.

A. Rs.320 Cr B. Rs.420 Cr C. Rs.520 Cr D. Rs.620 Cr

Answer

1. ANSWER : D

Explanation - Clearly the exports are more than the imports implies that the ratio of value of imports to exports in less than 1. So years are 1995, 1996, 1997 and 2000. So these are four years

2. ANSWER : A

Explanation - Clearly from the line graph we can judge it is minimum in year 1997.

3. ANSWER : C

Explanation - We are given with the ratio of imports and exports in the line graph.
Let the exports from the company in 1996 was x then,

272/x = 0.85

=> x = 272/0.85

=> x = 320

Note: Please not that we are given the ratio of imports to exports, so export will will in denominator .

4. ANSWER : D

Explanation - For calculating the percentage we will need value of exports, imports etc. We are only given with the ratio. So data in Inadequate.

Note: Please note in charts questions, most probably it includes 1 or more than 1 questions which are percentage based. So please clear percentage questions before preparing it. Because this is very scoring section.

5. ANSWER : B

Explanation - The Ratio of imports to exports for the years 1998 and 1999 are 1.25 and 1.40 respectively. Let the exports in the year 1998 = Rs. x crores
Then,the exports in the year 1999 = (500-x) crores

=> 1.25 = 250/x [because 1.25 is 1998 ratio]

=> x = 250/1.25 = 200 crore

Thus the exports in the year 1999 were 500 - 200 = 300 crore

Let the imports in the year 1999 = Rs y crore

Then 1.40 = y/300

=> y = 1.40 x 300 = 420 crore
