A) 72 B) 84

Q:

Should there be a complete ban on import of sugar by India?

Arguments :

I. No. The production of sugar in India is not sufficient to meet the requirement.

II. No. This will keep the prices of sugar under control as the supply will be adequate.

A) If only argument I is strong B) If only argument II is strong
C) If neither I nor II is strong D) If both I and II are strong
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) If both I and II are strong

Explanation:

Import of sugar is directly related with the domestic production of sugar. If import of sugar is banned then it will result in hoarding of sugar besides increase in its prices (due to less supply than the requirement). Hence I is strong. Note that availability of a commodity keeps the prices of the commodity under control. Hence, II is strong.

Q:

In an election between two candidates K and L, the number of valid votes received by K exceeds those received by L by 15% of the total number of votes polled. If 20% of the votes polled were invalid and a total of 8720 votes were polled, then how many valid votes did L get ?

A) 3241 B) 2457
C) 2642 D) 2834
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 2834

Explanation:

Let the total number of votes polled in the election be 100k.
Number of valid votes = 100k - 20% (100k) = 80k
Let the number of votes polled in favour of K and L be a and b respectively.
a - b = 15% (100k) => a = b + 15k
=> a + b = b + 15k + b
Now, 2b + 15k = 80k and hence b = 32.5k
It is given that 100k = 8720
32.5k = 32.5k/100k x 8720 = 2834

The number of valid votes polled in favour of L is 2834.

Q:

1.12.91 is the first Tuesday. Which is the fourth Thursday of December 91  ?

A) 22.12.91 B) 25.12.91
C) 24.12.91 D) 23.12.91
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 25.12.91

Explanation:

Given that 2.12.91 is the first Tuesday
Hence we can assume that 4.12.91 is the first Thursday

If we add 7 days to 4.12.91, we will get second Thursday
If we add 14 days to 4.12.91, we will get third Thursday
If we add 21 days to 4.12.91, we will get fourth Thursday

=> fourth Thursday = (4.12.91 + 21 days) = 25.12.91.
