If the length of the largest straight
rod that can be put inside a cuboid
is 10 m, then the surface area of
the cuboid cannot be more than
• The largest such size will be close to
cube. So we will solve for cube.
• Thus 10 = sqrt (3) * A, where A = side
• A = 10/(sqrt(3)) = 5.77 approx.
• Thus surface area = 6 * square of 5.77
• =200 answer.
A & B start walking in opposite
directions. A covers 3 km, B covers

under :
• Solve by using pythogorus rules
• Sqrt ( 3^2 +4^2) = sqrt (9+16) = sqrt (25)
• = 5 answer.

a queue of children, Goti is fifth
from the left and
Monu is sixth from the right. When
they interchange their seats among
themselves, Goti becomes
thirteenth from the left., what will be
Monu’s position from the right?

Solution
• From Monu, we have 5 persons in the
right and 12 in the left. Thus there are
12+5+1 = 18 persons in all. Monu now
shifts to the place where Goti was sitting
earlier. Thus his place is 18 – 4 = 14th from
the right (because Goti was 5th from left).

Which is the logical conclusion?
• Statement.:

Comprehension – what is the basic
focus of the writer?
• It is the avant-garde of the litigant spirit that is most
unsettling. If one can blame the Government for a
lightning strike and a corporation for a wind gust, it is
easy to imagine tracking almost any mishap to some
distant agency. Should owners of property on which
there is a public passage way prohibit barefoot
pedestrians or else assume liability for every stubbed
toe? Must the manufacturer of a knife clearly label it as
dangerous or else be vulnerable to damages for a
kitchen worker’s sliced finger? Could the designer of a
dam be blamed if a voluntary swimmer in a lake thus
created?

Solution
• The main theme of the author is to talk
about issues which may create litigation
and the author is critical of (unnecessary)
litigation spirit.

• which yet survive, stamped on those lifeless things,
• The band that mocked them and heart that fed.
• And on the pedestral these words appear:
• ‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
• Lock on my works, ye mighty, and despair!’
• Nothing beside remains, round the decay.
Solution
• He believes that he is very mighty. He is
suffering from megalomania.

What is the sum of digits of number
(10^500 - 123456789)
1. 4447
2. 4457
3. 4467
4. 4465
5. 4456

• Look at options and solve it. As we deduct
123456789, the last few values left are
999876543211. as we can see that these
values have been reduced by 123456789
so their reduction is by 45. thus 45 – 1
(which is there is 10) = 44 should be
additive identity. Only option 4456 gives
the answer. (4456+44 gives 4500,which is
round number). Thus answer is 4456.
A, B, C purchase 100, 150 & 250
toffees from wholesaler for a total
of Rs. 300, Rs. 375 & Rs. 500
respectively. In this process
wholesaler earned p% & q% profit
from A & C where p=3q. How much
profit did the wholesaler make in
this transaction with B?
• 1. 67% 2. 33% 3. 25%
• 4. 100% 5. None of these
Solution
• Let us assume p = 30 and q = 10
• Sale price of first (assume cost 100) =130
• Sale price of c = 110
• 130 – 110 = 20 which is 2Q
• Solution :
• Sale price of 100 tofees = 3 per tofee
• That of 250 tofees = 2 per tofees
• Difference = 3-2 = 1 rupee = 2Q
• P = 3q or P – q = 2q.
• Thus q = .5. cost of one toffee = 1.5 per tofee
Solution continued . .
• Cost of b toffee
• = 150 * 1.5 = 225.
• Sale price = 375
• Profit = 375 – 225 = 150 or rupee 1 per
tofee.
• 150/225*100 = 66.7% answer.

A shopkeeper give one scientific calculator free
with five mobile phones, which in other words is
giving 20% discount on the sale of mobile
phones. Then what is the percentage of
difference between two scientific calculator and
a mobile?
(1) ±42% (2) ± 52%
(3) ± 60% (4) ± 62%
(5) ±70%

Solution
• Let us assume that one mobile costs Rs.
100. thus 5 mobile costs Rs. 500 we can
give discount of 20% which is 100. Thus
the final price is 400
• Price of one calculator is Rs. 100 (equal to
the discount). We take 2 calculator as =
200. The final price of one mobile is Rs.
80. thus difference is 120. 120/200 *100 =
60% answer.

Find now many ways can a team he selected?
2256 252
256 108 112 308

Solution
• There are 2 goal keepers out of whom 1
has to be selected so we have 2 options
here.
• We have to select not 4 but 5 forwards out
of 9, so solution: 9c5 = 126
• We have to select 5 defenders out of 5, so
we have only one choice.
• Thus total choices: 2X 126X1 = 252
answer.
There are 2 trains moving in
opposite direction. They are of
equal length. Their speeds are also
90 KM per hour each. They 1
minute to cross each other. What is
the length of each of these trains?

Solution
• Speed of 1 train : 90
• Speed in meters / per second = 90*5/18
• =25 meters per second.
• The combined speed is 50 meters per
second.
• Thus the two trains have taken 60
seconds and have travelled : 60*50=3000
• Thus length of one train = 1500 meters.

• Their difference is 25 answer.

LCM and HCF of 2 numbers are 84
and 21 respectively. If the ratio of
the two numbers is 1:4, the larger
number is ?
• The two numbers are X and 4X.
• Let take factorisation of 84 and 21.
• Factorisation of 84 = 2*2*3*7
• Since HCF is 21, the numbers are 21 and
84 answer.
1/3rd of a number is 3 more than
1/4th of the number, what is the
number?
• Let us assume the number to be X.
• X/3 – X/4 = 3
• (4X – 3X ) / 12 = 3
• X = 36 Answer.

If 1/8th of a pencil is black, half of
the remaining is yellow and
remaining 3.5 CM is blue, what is
the total length of the pencil?
• Let us assume the length of the pencil to

be 16 CM . 2CM is black. 7 CM is yellow.
7CM is blue. Thus if 7CM is blue, total
length is 16, if 3.5 CM is blue, the total
length is 16/7*3.5 = 8 CM Answer.

What is the next number in the
sequence: 5,25,50,250,500?
• Let us first multiply a number by 5 and
then multiply by 2 and so on. Thus we are
able to get 2500 as the next number.

What is the value of (1/4)^-(1/2)?
• Let us first solve or – sign. We get 4^(1/2)
• We know the answer now = 2*2 =4 so the
answer is 2

How many 5 digit multiples of 11
are there, If the 5 digits are
3,4,5,6,7?
• We have only 5 digits, which we can
interchange. The total of these numbers is
25. for 11 to divide the difference of the
alternate groups of numbers must be either 0
or 11. (25-11) = 14, dividing it in 2 parts, we
get 7,7. thus alternate totals must be 7 and
18.
• Thus possible numbers are: 53647. We can
inter-change 5,6,7 and also 3 and 4.
• Thus 3! *2! = 12 is the answer.
What will be the remainder when
we divide 9^6+7 by 8?
• we can solve it as (1^6 +7)/ 8
• (because when we divide 9 by 8, the
remainder is 1.).
• Thus the remainder is 0. Answer.

After 20 years, he finds that the
total value of the certificates
purchased by him is Rs. 83,000.
Find the value of the certificates
purchased by him in the 13th year.

Solution
• Sum = n/2 (2a + (n-1)d)
• =20/2 (2a + 19*300) = 83000
• 2a + 5700 = 8300
• 2a = 2600
• A = 1300.
• Thus 13th investment was : (A + 12 D)

In a showroom there is ‘Buy 2 Get Some
Free” offer. The number of free shirts (of
same type) is to be decided by tossing a
coin, on which numbers 2 and 3 are written
on its sides. The number of free shirts is
equal to the number that appears after
tossing the coin. By how much percent
more than the cost price the selling price of
a shirt is kept so that the showroom dealer
must not incure any loses?

Solution
• Let us assume that the cost of one shirt is
100.
• Expected value = 2 *.5 + 3*.5 = 2.5
• Thus when he sells for 200, his cost is
450. he gets 225 per shirt.
• He must keep at least 125% above the
cost to ensure no profit no loss.

What is the maximum number of
soaps that can be produced in a
day?
• A factozy uses two
machines, M1 and M2 to
manufacture three
types of soap, P, Q & R.
The efficiency of the
two machines with
respect to the three
types of soap is given
in the table below. The
numbers indicate the
time taken (in min.) by
the two machines to
manul.lcture one unit
each of the three types
of soap.
Solution
• Let us assume that machine works for 12
hours. Machine M1 will make P (because
the required is minimum) and M2 will
make Q. Thus total production is :
• (12*60)/8 = 90
• (12*60)/9 = 80
• Thus they will make total 170 soaps.

If X is 90% of Y. what % of X is Y?
• Let us assume Y = 100
• X = 90
• Thus y = 100/90 *100 = 111% answer.

If X is 90% of Y. Y is 90% of Z
what % of X is Z?
• Let us start with Z. Z is 100, Y is 90. Now
being being 90, X is 90% of Y, thus X is
81.
• Z is 100/81*100 = 123.45 % of X. answer.

At what rate percent per annum will
a sum of money doubles
itself in 12 years?
(SI)
• This is a question on simple interest (SI)
• We have 100 rupees now and we want
100 more in next 12 years. Thus annual
interested expected is 100/12=8.33
approx. per annum answer.

At what rate percent per annum will
a sum of money doubles
itself in 12 years?
(CI)
• This is a question of compound interest.

• Let us assume that the amount is X.
• 100 (1+R)^12 = 200
• (1+R)^12 = 2
• Therefore the rate is 5.9% per annum.
the simple interest on a certain sum
is 9/16 of the sum. Find
the rate percent and time, if both
are equal.
• Let us assume that sum is 16. interest will
be 9.
• PRT / 100 = I (p=principal,R=rate,T=time).
• 16*R^2 / 100 = 9 (R = T)
• R^2 = 900/16
• R = 30 / 4 or 7.5% per annum answer.
A sum when reckoned at simple
interest at 3 per annum
amounts to Rs.364.80 after 4
years. Find the sum.
• Let us assume that the amount was Rs.

100.
• As per question : 100*3*4/100 = 12 or the
amount becomes 112.
• Thus sum was 100/112 *364.8=325
(approx.)
Amount = Rs 1110, Time = 100
days, Rate = 5% p.a. what is
simple interest?
• 1110*100/365 *5/100
• =15.2 Rupees.

A is 20% more that B and B is 10%
more than C. A is what % more
than C?
• Let us assume C = 100. B is 110. thus A is

120/100 *110 = 132.
• A = 132, C = 100.
• Thus A is 32% more than C. Answer.

• Average = Total / Number

• Total of 20 = 312. total of 5 = 77
• Total of 25 = 389
• New average = 389/25= 15.56 answer.
A sum of Rs.10,000 deposited at
compound interest becomes double
after 5 years. After 20 years, how
much will it become?
• Let us assume that money doubles in 5

years, from 1 we get 2 in 5 years, 4 in 10
years, and 8 in 15 years, and 16 in 20
years. Thus this amount will become
160000 in 20 years.

A sum of Rs.5000 was taken as a
loan. This is to be paid in two equal
installments. If the rate of interest is
20% compounded annually, then
what is the value of each
instalment?
• Let us assume that there are 2

instalments of X amounts. Thus
discounting them will give 5000.
• X /(1.2 )+ X / 1.44 = 5000
Solution
• X /(1.2 )+ X / 1.44 = 5000
• 2.64X = 5000*1.2*1.44
• X = (5000*1.2*1.44)/2.64
• =3272.7 ANSWER.

If a certain sum is doubled in 8
years on simple interest,
then in how many years will it be
four times?
• Let us assume that Rs 100 becomes 200
in 8 years. Thus this money generates
100/8 = 12.5 per annum of interest
• We have to generate interest of Rs. 300
on Rs. 100 years. Thus years will be :
300/12.5 = 24 years. Answer.
A testator bequeathed by will 2/5 of
his estate to his son,
‘’60% of the remainder to his
daughter and the remainder to
‘his widow, the son got Rs.750
more than the daughter. How
much did the widow receive?
• Let us assume that the total amount was
Rs. 500. Son got 200 and daughter got
180. thus the difference was only 20.
• If the difference is 20, the total amount
• is
• 500/20 * 750
• 18750 is the total amount.
• Share of widow : 18750*3/5 *40/100
• Thus the widow got. Rs. 4500 answer.

Puzzle
• Goti and I started walking towards each
other from two places lOO m apart. After
walking 30m, Goti turns left and goes lO
m, then he turns right and goes 20m then
turns right again and comes back to the
road and starts walking. If we walk with
the same speed, what is the distance
between us at this point of time

Solution
• (Goti walks 70 meters in all), so I walk 70
meters towards Goti’s starting point and
now I am 30 meters from that. Goti takes
only 30+20 meters on the road. Thus Goti
is 50 meters from my starting point. Thus
there is a gap of 20 meters between me
and Goti. Answer.

Sum of 1st to 30th terms of a series
in arithmetic
progèssion is 150. if the first term is
A, what is 30th term of the series?
• Sum = 30/2 (2a + (29)D) = 150
• 2a + 29d =150*2/30 = or 29 D = 10 – 2A

In a Class of 80 pupils, the number
of boys is three-fifths the number of
girls. Determine the number of girls
in the class.
• Let the number of girls be X
• X + 3/5X = 80
• 8/5 X = 80
• X = 80 *5/8
• X = 50 (the number of girls is 50, boys are
30) answer.
The difference between two
numbers is 30. On dividing the
greater by the smller the quotient is
3. Find the numbers.
• Let the smaller number be X.

In the diagram the two circles pass
through each other’s centre. If the
radius of each circle is 2, what is
the perimeter of the region marked
B?

Solution
• Permieter of one circle is 2/3 now
because, it is being cut by other circle.
• Thus 2/3 + 2/3 of perimeters added :
• 2 * 2/3 * (formula of perimeter = 2pi *r)
• =(8 * pi * r) /3 answer.

What is angle C?

Solution
• Angle O is double the angle A. Thus it is
100 degree. Thus C is (180 -100)/2 = 40
degrees answer.

What is angle a?

Solution
• Angles from D and C are equal .
• 180 – 60 – 37 – x
• =83 – x
• Let us sum up for two angles:
• (180+180 ) = 360
• 83-x + 83 – x + 180+2X = 360
• 2Y +2X = 180 let us assume Y = 53
• 2X = 72 or X = 36 answer (solve by options,
so angle A = 53 ) answer.
