Section – III: Quantitative Aptitude
91. A; Let the CP of the article be Rs a

Then, SP =a × 1.12 × 1.1
Now, a × 1.12 × 1.1 = 616
a = 616/ 1.12 × 1.1 = 500
92. B; Total interest received after 9 years = 6 × 2+9 × 3 + 14 × 4 = 95%

Therefore 95 % of Principal = 11400
x = 11400/.95 = 12000.
93. D; a: b: c =1/2 : 1/3 : 1/4

a: b: c =6:4:3
let a= 6 × b= 4 × c= 3x
then (a+b+c)/bc= 13/12x
as we do not know the value of x, hence answer cannot be determine.
94. A; Let “a” ml of solution is replaced with water.
CP/18/C05

960 – 16a = 540 +12a

28a= 420
a=15 ml.
95. B; This also has two letters A and B whose values are to be found.
Since the ones digit of 3 × A is A, it must be that A = 0 or A = 5.
Now look at B.
If B = 1, then BA × B3 would at most be equal to 19 × 19; that is,it would at most be equal to
361.
But the product here is 57A, which is more than 500.
Sowe cannot have B = 1.
If B = 3, then BA × B3 would be more than 30 × 30; that is, more than 900. But 57Ais less than
600.
So, B can not be equal to 3.
Putting these two facts together, we see that B = 2 only.
So the multiplication is either20 × 23, or 25 × 23.
The first possibility fails, since 20 × 23 = 460.
But, the second one works out correctly, since 25 × 23 = 575.
So the answer is A = 5, B = 2.
So A+B = 7
96. C; HCF of (195–3, 250–2) = HCF of 192 and 248 = 8
CP/18/C05
97. D; 5/8 = 5 × 12.5% = 62.5%

6/11 = 6×9.09 % = 54.54%
13/22= 13 × 4.54 % = 59.02%
9/13 = 9 × 7.7 % = 69.3%
98. C; New sp of one orange =

Old SP/0.96×1.08 = 1/32(short cut)
He sells 32 oranges per rupee.
99. D; HCF of 60, 84and 108 is 12.

So in each room, 12 participants must be seated.
Hence number of rooms required = 5 + 7 + 9 = 21
100. B; Total coins = 100+50+20+10 =180

Total five Rs coins= 10
Required probability = 1 – 10/180 = 17/18
101. C; Total number of required team= (4C3 ×7C2)+ (4C4 × 7C1) = 84 + 7 = 91
102. A; Let a, b and c are the number of men who received medals in only Football,only Basketballand
only Cricket respectively. Also let p,q and r are the number of men who received medals in
only Football and basketball, only basketball and cricket, and only cricket and Football
respectively.
Now a+b+c+p+q+r+3=58……………..(1)
Also a+p+q = 38–3=35
b+p+r= 15–3=12
c+q+r= 20–3=17
adding these three equation
CP/18/C05
a+b+c+2(p+q+r) = 64…………………..(2)
solving (1) and (2)
p+q+r= 9
103. D; Let his loss = Rs x. Then,

C.P. = 5000 + x = 5600 – 2x
3x = 600;x = 200
ThereforeC.P. =5000 + 200 = Rs 5200
104. D; Let length be L and breadth be B
Diagonal = L2  B2 = b+60
L^2 + b^2 = B^2 +120B + 3600
Replacing L with B+30
(B+30)^2 = 120B +3600
B^2–60B –2700 =0
B^2 – 90B + 30B –2700=0
(B–90)(B+30) =0
B=90 Mt
105. D; 2(B+R) = 3(B–R)

B=5R
288/(B+R)+ 288/(B– R) = 40;
288/6R+ 288/ 4R =40
48/R +72/R =40
120/R=40
R=3
Then B= 5 × 3=15 km/hr
CP/18/C05
106. C; Let the capacity of tank be 48 L

Pipe A can fill it in 24 hrs, means it pours 2L water per hour
Pipe B can fill it in 48 Hrs means it pours 1L water per hour.
If both pipes worked together they can pour 3 L water per hour.
Hence time taken to fill 3/4thtank i.e. 36 L = 36/3 = 12 Hr.
Now remaining 12 L is filled by pipe A alone.
Hence time taken must be= 12/2 = 6 Hrs
Total time taken = 12+6= 18 hrs
107. A; Let total profit earned = Rs x

Total sum received by A as salary = 5000 × 12 = 60,000
Share of A= 5000 × 12 + 5/11(x–60000)
Share ofB = 6/11(x–60000)
60000+ 5/11(x–60000) = 6/11(x–60000)
1/11(x–60000) = 60000
x–60000 = 660000
x= 720000
share of each = 36000
108. B; Ralf Peter Shrek

200 150
500 400
Ralf Peter Shrek
4 3
5 4
20 : 15: 12
So Ratio of Ralf and Shrek is 5:3
CP/18/C05
x/(x–1600) = 5/3
x= 400.
109. A; All numbers from 0–300 which are divisible by 9 = 300/9 = 33

All numbers from 0–10 which are divisible by 9 = 1
So total numbers from 10 –300 = 33–1= 32
110. B; Net speed = 22.5–7.5= 15 × 5/18 = 75/18 = 25/6 m/sec

Distance = length of faster train = L meter
Time taken = 18 sec
Distance= speed × time
L= 25/6 × 18 = 75 mtere
Section – IV: Legal Reasoning
111. D; Section 497 of the Indian Penal Code clearly states the Principle I and Principal II mentioned in
the question. Simple reading of principal II tells us that Cersei (wife) could not be held liable for
the offence of Adultery. Principle I states that “A person who is and whom he knows or has
reason to believe to be the wife of another man”. Since Jaime did not know nor had a reason
to believe that Cersei was the wife of another man, he is not guilty of adultery. Hence no one is
liable.
112. C; Facts in the question resemble the case of Ashiruddin Ahmed Vs. The King, in which the
conduct of the accused who had told his maternal uncle that in a dream he was commanded
by somebody in paradise to sacrifice his son and his taking the son to a mosque and killing him
by thrusting a knife in the throat i.e. an act of sacrifice was held to be indicative of the accused
acting under delusion and hence insane.
Calcutta High Court had devised a test of insanity based on this case in which the court laid
down that in order to get benefit of sec 84 of IPC the accused should establish any one of the
following three element namely,
That the nature of the act was not known to him
CP/18/C05
That the act was not known to him to be contrary of law

That the act was not by him to be wrong.
In the above case, third element was satisfied. He believed his dream to be reality, though he
knew the nature of the act and knew it to be contrary to law.
113. C; Article 25 of the constitution gives the freedom of conscience and free profession, practice and
propagation of religion subject to public order, morality and health. The principle states that
state may restrict unreasonable practice.
What is being restricted in the given situation is the method of practicing religion and not the
practice of religion itself. This restriction is in accordance with the principle as the practice of
using loudspeakers was causing unreasonable interference to the residents of the locality.
Moreover loudspeakers could not be considered as an essential part of one’s religion.
114. C; Ideally speaking such a contract cannot be enforced. But sticking to the given principles only
and considering the iconic case of Carlil V Carbolic smoke ball, all the conditions of a general
offer and acceptance are being fulfilled. There is a general offer, the barber accordingly comes
forward and literally performs the condition of the proposal. So according to the given
principle and fact, he can claim his reward.
115. B; Facts of the case are similar to Mannu Singh v. UmadatPandey (1890) in which a spiritual Guru
asked his devotee to gift him his entire property and in return he would secure him a place in
heaven. It was held that it was undue influence for any reasonable man cannot give away his
entire property for the sake of that.
This is a case of undue influence in which one party is able to dominate the will of the other
and hence consent cannot be said to be free thereby rendering the contract as voidable.
116. D; As per the principle, the statement fulfills the criteria of being a defamatory statement as it
was published and it lowered Arvind’s reputation in the estimation of other people. It cannot
be considered a trivial issue and it fulfills all the essentials of being a defamatory statement.
117. A; Principle I specifies the grounds on which discrimination cannot be made. Place of birth is
different from domicile. Had Rahul been born in Bihar but ordinarily residing in Uttar Pradesh
he would have been eligible for admission. State Governments can make special provisions for
the advancement of persons residing in its territory. Hence A is the most appropriate answer.
118. B; Principle I says that “Whoever voluntarily obstructs any person so as to prevent that person
from proceeding in any direction in which that person has a right to proceed….” The
participant had waived this “right to proceed” when he agreed to be a part of the show. Thus
he cannot say that was wrongfully restraint.
119. A; Principle II states that a person commits trespass if he stays there even after his right has
ceased to exist. Although Om Prakash was invited into the house, his right to remain there
CP/18/C05
ceased to exist when the order of eviction was passed against him by the organizers. Thus it
can be said that he committed house trespass.
120. B; IgnoratiaJuris Non Excusat (Ignorance of law is not an excuse). It is a matter of law and not fact
whether a particular thing is legal or not. One cannot claim that he was not aware of a
particular law after violating that law.
121. B; Principle I defines mischief with words “whoever intent to cause”. In the given fact situation
Morty did not intend to cause wrongful loss to Rick but he intended to steal the phone for his
gain. It was only out of fear and frustration that he threw the phone after committing theft.
The Elements of principle II are completely satisfied in the fact situation as he intended to take
the phone dishonestly without Rick’s consent. Thus he is guilty of theft and not Mischief.
122. B; Principal states that “whoever engages in a conspiracy with another to commit a crime
(Abetment to suicide)”. Although Hannah did not interact with Rishi directly she did engage in
a conspiracy through her network of “Curators” and facilitated the crime. Principle doesn’t talk
about the territorial jurisdiction or consent of the victim so Option B is the most appropriate
answer.
123. C; Simple reading of the Principle II will make it clear that the contract is not enforceable because
Austin was 17 year old (Minor). The facts say that she was contacted personally, that excludes
the possibility of his agent/guardian entering into contact and they come into picture only at
the time of communicating cancellation. Thus contract entered into by 17 year old Austin was
void ab initio and not enforceable and she cannot be held liable for breach of contract.
124. D; Going by the principle it can be seen that though Anil suffered some financial loss, he did not
suffer legal injury. Mukesh had a right to run his institute as much as Anil and financial loss due
to competition cannot be considered as legal injury. Resemblance can been seen between the
facts of this case and the Gloucester Grammer School case which is a landmark case on
Damnum Sine Injuria.
125. A; Suresh Pocketed the cash when he could’ve returned everything as he had contact details of
Prabhu. Thus he dishonestly misappropriates property belonging to another and hence guilty
of misappropriation.
126. C; India is not bound to accommodate the refugees. Principle I says “Every citizen”, thus right to
settle and reside is available to Indian citizens alone. Right to live is available to every person
but India is not responsible for ill treatment of citizens of other sovereign nations.
127. A; Notwithstanding the motive and nature of the settlement, sticking by the principle it was
contrary to the statutory provision. Consent of the workers is irrelevant for unlawful
settlement.
128. D; The principle is taken from sec 294 of IPC and it clearly states that whoever to the annoyance
of others sings, recites or utters any obscene song shall be punished. Principle doesn’t talk
about those participating in huge numbers or permission of the authority. The organizers of
the event can directly be attributed for this annoyance at a public place and they shall be
punished and Principle II further clears the doubt if any.
CP/18/C05
129. C; Conspiracy has been defined in sec 120 A of IPC. A dog cannot be considered as a “Person” and
such an agreement cannot be considered valid. Thus constituent of conspiracy is not fulfilled
as there are no two persons hence Ramsay is not guilty of Conspiracy.
130. B; Under IPC, Section 82 says nothing is an offence which is done by a child under seven years of
age and Section 83 says nothing is an offence which is done by a child above seven years of age
and under twelve, who has not attained sufficient maturity of understanding to judge of the
nature and consequences of his conduct on that occasion. The principle given in the question
only talks about children below 12 years and doesn’t talk about sufficient maturity etc.
Ignoring all insignificant options and facts just sticking to the one line principle, it can be seen
that Lancel is 10 years old (Below 12) and hence cannot be charged with an offence.
131. A; Explanationg: Since Dr. Gulati was in charge of taking care of supply of oxygen cylinders, he
had an obligation or duty. Since it was an hospital and irrespective of the facts that there was
excess intake of patients, oxygen cylinder is a basic necessity and there should always be an
back up option to maintain the supply, that’s what is expected from a reasonable and prudent
man in responsibility of such task. Thus despite his efforts to mitigate the loss at last moment,
Dr. Gulati failed to act as a prudent man and he could be tried for criminal negligence.
132. A; Sec 309 IPC reads as “Whoever attempts to commit suicide and does any act towards the
commission of such offence, shall be punished with simple imprisonment for a term which may
extend to one year or with fine.
In GianKaur case, the Supreme Court upheld the validity of Section 309 of the Indian Penal
Code, which criminalises the “attempt to commit suicide”. Reading Principle I alone might put
Shetty under the scanner but Principle II says that any criminal offence requires the proof of a
mensrea, or the existence of a guilty mind. Shetty has been fasting not with an intention to die,
but with an intention to achieve a desired result from the state. His refusal to consume food or
water can be criminalized only if he has acted in furtherance of a conscious endeavor to
commit suicide. In the absence of such conscious endeavor, to accuse and prosecute him for
an offence under Section 309 is misconceived and this cannot be considered as attempt to
suicide.
133. B; The principle says that there can be special provision for advancement of certain sections of
the society if there is reasonable nexus with the object. Unconditional reservation of seats and
complete waiver of fees for the employees of the school does not really help in advancement
of any particular section of the society nor is there a reasonable nexus between providing
better education and favoring students belonging to one’s institution.Thus B is the right
answer.
134. A; This is a debatable question as it is for the courts to determine religious sentiments and
morality. Corollary can be drawn between this fact situation and beef ban in India but if we
look at the judgments of the supreme courts, a seven–judge bench of the Supreme Court in
MirzapurMotiKureshiKassabJamat and Ors upheld, with a majority of six,a complete ban on
the slaughter of all cows and their progeny, viz., cows, bulls, bullocks, heifers and calves, in the
state of Gujarat. The argument that such a ban infringes the fundamental right of butchers to
CP/18/C05
profess any occupation (that had been upheld in HanifQuareshi) was struck down by the court
with the reasoning that the law provided a reasonable restriction and not a prohibition on the
right to profess any occupation. Moreover, the court also revised the understanding of
‘usefulness’ of bulls and bullocks that had informed judicial reasoning thus far, by ruling that
bulls and bullocks remained useful throughout their lives (beyond their use for draught power)
as the urine and dung produced was useful for manure and bio–gas. In strengthening its case
for the protection of bulls and bullocks, the court also relied on Article 51 A(g) (which imposes
a duty on citizens to to protect and improve the natural environment and to have compassion
for living creatures) to note that showing compassion towards animals meant protecting
‘useless’ cattle from slaughter.
In case of fish however such reasoning cannot find mention and “religious sentiments” remain
only “reasonable restriction” if any. But law affecting livelihood of so many fishermen just to
recognize religious sentiment of a particular section of a society doesn’t seem rational in a
secular state like India. So Option A seems the most logical answer.
135. C; Section 11 of the Hindu Adoption and Marriage Act prescribes the condition that if the
adoption is by a male and the person to be adopted is a female, the adoptive father is at least
twenty–one years older than the person to be adopted; and similarly if female adopting male.
There is no special provision based on sexual orientation either in Act or in principle given in
the present question thus sexual orientation is irrelevant and adoption is valid.
136. C; “Disturbance of public peace” is a component in the definition of Affray in the Principle (Also in
Sec 159 IPC). Since the facts state that there was no one else on the road, there was no public
whose peace was disturbed and hence this cannot be considered as affray even thought it was
a public place.
137. B; The two important components for tort of nuisance is
(1)The plaintiff owns the land or has the right to possess it;
(2)The defendant actually acted in a way that interferes with the plaintiff's enjoyment and use
of his or her property
The defendant in this case (Heisenberg) acted in a way that interferes with Skyler’s enjoyment
of her property as odor is such a thing that even if released in Heisenberg’s property, reaches
Skyler’s property and interferes with the enjoyment of her property.
138. D; Since the wrongful act was committed in the course of employment i.e while delivering goods
in Company’s vehicle and using Company’s packaging, Gus can be held vicariously liable for the
act of his servant (Driver).
139. B; As per the principle duty of care is towards invitees and visitors. Nitish was not an invitee, and
clear notice against trespasser makes him a trespasser and not a visitor. It is usual for a dairy
farm owner to have bull in his farm and he owed no duty towards trespasser. Thus B is the
most appropriate answer.
140. D; Principle states that “….apprehension is caused in the mind of a person that the person is
about to use physical force against his body”. This denotes imminent apprehension and an
CP/18/C05
actual possibility of contact with the body. Posting a video cannot be considered as an assault
but a mere warning if anything at all and thus D is the right answer.
141. B; Protection has been provided from discrimination on grounds only of religion, race, caste, sex,
place of birth or any of them. Restriction to enter during non visiting hours for alumni is a
reasonable restriction and cannot be said to be violation of any right.
142. D; Principle clearly states that “the defendant agrees to plead guilty to a particular charge in
return for some concession from the prosecutor”. Here Tyrion doesn’t plead guilty to any legal
charge but breaks into rhetoric which has no value in the court of law thus he will not get the
benefit of plea bargaining based on this so called “confession”.
143. D; One of the essentials of Article 20(2) is that The person should have been prosecuted before a
Court or a judicial tribunal. Thus suspension from school from one year as punishment is
different from the punishment for the offence of assault by the state authorities.
In S.A. Venkataraman v. Union of India, the appellant, a government servant, was charged with
committing corruption. An inquiry was held against him under the Public Servants (Inquiries)
Act, 1850. As a result of the report of the Enquiry Commissioner, he was dismissed from
service. There after he was prosecuted before the court for having committed offences under
Secs. 161 and 165 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 and Sec. 5(2) of the Prevention of Corruption
Act, 1947. The Supreme Court Held that the proceeding taken before the Enquiry
Commissioner did not amount to be a prosecution for an offence. Therefore, protection of Art
20(2) could not be availed by the accused.
144. A; The basis of this agreement was uncertain i.e. “If Abhishek wins, he would invest” thus it could
be considered as an wagering event as it was dependent on the happening of an uncertain
event and thus it cannot be enforced. Moreover there was no consideration on the part of
Vivek as such. Thus option a is the most appropriateanswer.
145. A; Information regarding a secret mission definitely falls under matter of national security and
this qualifies as a ground for reasonable restriction on freedom of speech and expression. A
soldier cannot invoke this right and put the national security at risk.
146. C; A is true but R is false because the Constitution (Sixty–first Amendment) Act, 1989, lowered
the voting age of elections to the LokSabha and to the Legislative Assemblies of States from 21
years to 18 years.
147. B; Both the statements are true but R is not the correct explanation as A is an exception. Lord
Mountbatten swears in Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru as the first Prime Minister of free India on
August 15, 1947 while The first President of the Sovereign Democratic Republic of India
DrRajendra Prasad took the Oath of Office administered by the Chief Justice of India Sir H L
Kania January 26, 1950.
148. B; Both the statements are true but R is not the correct explanation as here A is an exception to
the general rule. 50% quota cap in the Mandal case judgment does not apply to TN as,
according to the 1991 census, the percentage of SCs, STs and backward classes in relation to
the state’s total population was 88.
CP/18/C05
149. A; It can be compared that the High Courts can issue writs even to enforce any other legal rights
also, whereas the Supreme Court can enforce only FRs.
Supreme Court and High Courts both can issue some writs provided by the Constitution, such
as–Habeas Corpus, Mandamus, Prohibition, Certiorari, or quo warranto. However, it is
noticeable that a person can avail of the right under Article–32 as of a right because it is a
fundamental right whereas Article–226 do not confer any duty upon the High Courts to issue a
writ. It is simply dependent upon discretionary power of High Courts. But, in matter of area
wise jurisdiction, the Supreme Court has wide power whereas the High Courts' jurisdiction is
limited to any particular area.
150. C: A is true but R is false as the objective of tort law is usually in the form of putting someone
back in the same financial position as they would have been but for the action of the other.
151. A;
152. C;
153. B; Right to property is not a fundamental right anymore post – 1978(44thAmendment to the
Constitution). It is just a constitutional right under article 300A (earlier it was 19(i)(f)
154. D; Chief Justice of India JS Khehar was the dissenting judge whose view was endorsed by Justice
Abdul Nazeer. Their contention was that triple talaq is an established aspect of Sunni personal
law and that it is up to the legislature to enact reforms.
155. B; Article 13 deals with laws inconsistent with or in derogation of the fundamental rights it says
that all laws in force in the territory of India immediately before the commencement of this
Constitution, in so far as they are inconsistent with the provisions of this Part, shall, to the
extent of such inconsistency, be void. This it empowers the judiciary to strike down laws made
by parliament which are inconsistent with the FR.
156. B; CPC is a procedural law
157. A;
158. A; habeas corpus a.k.a bulwark of personal freedom can also be issued against private individual.
159. D; Caveat Emptor means Buyer beware, and Caveat Venditoris Seller Beware.
160. B; Relevant in light of recent Panchkula incident.

161. D
162. B. in if p then q, q therefore p is possible. Q is given (public order law was passed) therefore
proclamation of emergency is in operation
163. C. now p is given, therefore q follows. Both a and b are q (matters in the state list) hence both
follow
CP/18/C05
164. A. in if p then q; p therefore not q is false. A says not q

165. C. the statement given is not p therefore not q may or may not follow, hence answer is can’t say.
166. A. the statement given is not q therefore not p must follow.
Questions 167-168 are also if p then q.
167. B. Translation of if p then q is only if q then p or unless q then not p. option a is only if p then q,
hence invalid. Option B is unless q then not p, which is valid
168. C. Not true means false. False means impossible. Both a and b are possible. A is not p therefore
not q which is possible, and b is either p1 or p2 therefore q which is also possible as p is not the
only way to reach q. hence neither a nor b is the answer.
Questions 9 and 10 are on the format; if p then q, and either r or s. so based on questions rules for if
and either or will have to be applied.
169. D. the bill was not passed means not p; not therefore not q is possible but not valid so the bill
may or may not be presented to president and either assent or dissent remains suspended.
Therefore answer is neither
170. B. The bill was passed means p, therefore q follows. Q is given in option b.
171. A. The necessary options for 11 are only I
As it is given all acts are bills and some bills are money bills and all money bills are passed by
parliament. Some +all in statements 2 and 3 gives us I, since statements 1 and 2 gives nothing as
middle term bills is not distributed we cannot say the rest
172. B. explanation above
173. B.
174. C. All +some gives us some, as middle term ad hoc promotions is distributed, therefore II
follows
175. A. by combining the two premises we get answer II as given in the previous answer. So if some
unfit candidates GOT SEALED COVER PROCEDURE then V is false as it says no unfit
candidates got sealed cover procedure. No and some are contradictories.
176. B. If some is true then all may also be true
177. B. may be true, same as above
178. C. facts are verifiable. Statements 1 and 3 are stating facts. Statement two is cause and effect so
it’s an inference.
179. C. All verifiable statements
180. D. statement a is a fact and b inference
181. A; The code follows pattern –1, –6, –1, –5, –1, –4, –1
Thus, GUIDANCE will be coded as FOHYZJBB
CP/18/C05
Hence, (a)
182. B; UNITED == UNI/TED ==(reverse each half to get code) = INUDET
Thus, MEDICINE = IDEMENIC
Hence, (b)
183. B; Clearly, the codes of the given alphabets are as follows:
P = 2, O = 8, R = 6, E = 1, C = 7, H = 3, A = 4, I = 5
Thus, CRAP is coded as 7642.
Hence, (b)
184. A; Thecorrect series is 23 – 1, 33 – 1, 43 – 1 and so on. Thus, 28 is the wrong term.
Hence, (a)
185. C; Each number is first multiplied by 2 and then 5 is added to it.
Thus, next term = 171*2 + 5 = 347
Hence, (c)
186. B; The number are consecutive prime numbers. Thus, next prime number is 41.
Hence, (b)
187. B; As per question, 9th position from right is same as 15th position from left. Thus, total number
of boys = 9 + 15 – 1 = 23
Hence, (b)
188. A; The gentleman’s only brother is the father of Danish (Danish daughter’s father is Danish
himself.). Gentleman is brother of Danish’s father. Gentleman is Danish’s uncle. Hence, (a)
189. B; ‘Only son of my grandfather’ means ‘my father’. “His father is the only son of my grandfather”
thus becomes “His father is my father”. So Radha is Ajay’s sister. Hence, (b)
190. C: Grandfather’s only son i.e. father. Father’s daughter i.e. sister.Dilip is, thus brother to the girl
in the photograph. Hence, (c)
191. D; IfShreya is selected, then Nitin is selected. Pratika is not selected. Thus, the second girl could
be Suman or Gautami. If Suman is selected then Viswjit is not selected. If Gautami is selected
then Nihit is not selected. In both cases, Rajesh is selected. Hence, (d)
192. C; If three girls are in the group, then Shreya cannot be in the group. Also Nitin cannot be in the
group. That means,Gautami, Pratika and Suman are in the group. Thus, Nihit and Viswjit
cannot be in the group. So, only Rajesh is selected among boys. This does not form a group of
size 5 i.e size 5 group is not possible. Thus, there is no such way. Hence, (c)
193. B; If there are three boys in the group, then following can be the cases–
Case 1: Boys–>Nitin, Nihit and Viswjit; Girls: Pratika and Shreya (Possible case)
CP/18/C05
Case 2: Boys –>Nitin, Nihit and Rajesh; Girls: Shreya and Suman (Possible case)
Case 3: Boys–>Nitin, Viswjit and Rajesh; Girls: Shreya and Gautami (Possible case)
Case 4: Boys–>Nihit, Viswjit and Rajesh; No girls are possible in this case.
Thus, the group can be formed in three ways. Hence, (b)
194. D; Only option (d) is not possible according to constraint (iv). All other options are possible.
Hence, (d)
195. B; After removing (ii), (iv) and (v) constraints, the team can be formed in following ways –
Case 1: When the girls are –>Suman, Pratika and Shreya
2 boys have to be selected out of the four. Since, Pratika is selected– Rajesh and Nihit cannot
be selected together. Also, Viswjit is not selected as Suman is selected. Thus possible
combination of two boys are –> (i) Nitin, Nihitand (ii) Nitin, Rajesh. The other way is 2 boys of 3
boys must be selected (as Viswjit is not selected). They can be selected in C(3,2) = 3ways but in
one way Rajesh and Nihit are together. So, only two ways are possible.
Case2: When the girls are –>Gautami, Pratika and Shreya
2 boys must be selected out of 4. The only restriction is that Rajesh and Nihit cannot be
selected together. Now, 2 boys out of 4 can be selected in C(4,2) =6 ways. One way involves
Rajesh and Nihit. Thus, two boys can be selected in 5 ways.
Case 3: When girls are Suman, Gautami and Pratika
In this case Viswjit is not selected. So, three boys are left, of which Nihit and Rajesh cannot be
together. Thus, either Nitin and Nihit or Nitin and Rajesh is selected i.e. there are 2 ways.
Case 4: When girls are Suman, Gautami and Shreya.
In this case Viswjit is not selected. So, three boys are left of which any two can be selected.
They can be selected in C(3,2) ways = 3 ways.
Thus, total number of ways = 2+ 5 + 2+ 3 = 12 ways. Hence, (b)
196. D; Harry’s shadow was to his right i.e. east. So, Harry was facing north. Thus, Rahul will face
south. Hence, (d)
197. B; At point B, his shadow was to his left i.e. east (as it is evening), so he must be facing
south.Now, At point C (10 kms from point A) he turned right to face south. Thus, originally he
must be facing east.
Hence, (b)
CP/18/C05
198. A; It is given that C and D always sit together and D is immediate right of B. i.e. BDC are together.
Also, since G and B have four people between them. Also, B is not at an extreme, thus,
arrangement would look like –
_BDC__G
Hence, (a)
199. C; 1600 is a leap year as it is divisible by 400. Hence, (c)
200. A; 67 days means 4 odd days (67 divided by 7 leaves 4 as remainder). 4 days after Saturday is
Wednesday. Hence, (a)
