Quantitative Aptitude [ Question No: 1 To 3 ] :
A student needs to enroll for a minimum of 60 credits. A student cannot enroll for more than 70 credits. The credits are divided amongst project and three distinct sets of courses namely, core courses, specialization courses, and elective courses. It is compulsory for a student to enroll for exactly 15 credits of core courses and exactly 20 credits of project. In addition, a student has to enroll for a minimum of 10 credits of specialization courses. The maximum credits of elective courses that a student can enroll for is ___
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
The maximum elective credit is 25.
The compulsory and minimum credits are fixed first:
\[ \begin{aligned} \text{core} + \text{project} + \text{min. spec.} &= 15+20+10 \\ &= 45 \end{aligned} \]
Electives are maximised by taking only the minimum specialization credit and enrolling for the largest total allowed, 70. That leaves 70 - 45 = 25 credits for electives. The total of 70 also satisfies the 60-credit minimum.
15 is what you get by working from the 60-credit minimum instead of the 70-credit maximum, and 10 and 20 leave allowed credits unused.
The sum of the ages of a father and his son is 60 years. Six years ago, the father's age was five times the age of the son. What will be the son's age after 6 years?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Let the present ages of the father and son be F and S.
F + S = 60.
Six years ago, their ages were F-6 and S-6. So, F-6 = 5(S-6) => F - 6 = 5S - 30 => F = 5S - 24.
Substitute this into the first equation: (5S - 24) + S = 60 => 6S = 84 => S = 14.
The son's current age is 14 years. His age after 6 years will be 14 + 6 = 20 years.
In order to obtain an income of Rs. 650 from 10% stock at Rs. 96, one must make an investment of:
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
In stock problems, a "\( r\% \) stock at \( m \)" means Rs. 100 of face value costs Rs. \( m \) and pays Rs. \( r \) a year, so the yield on money invested is \( \tfrac{r}{m} \).
\[ \text{yield} = \frac{10}{96} \]
\[ \text{investment} = 650 \times \frac{96}{10} = \text{Rs. } 6240 \]
Each Rs. 96 invested returns Rs. 10, so the investment is the income scaled by \( \tfrac{96}{10} \).

Statement : Until our country achieves economic equality, political freedom and democracy would be meaningless.
Conclusions :
I. Political freedom and democracy go hand in hand.
II. Economic equality leads to real political freedom and democracy.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Correct answer: Only conclusion II follows
Until X, Y would be meaningless makes economic equality the precondition for political freedom and democracy having any real content.
- II - follows. It restates that precondition: economic equality is what gives political freedom and democracy substance.
- I - does not follow. The statement mentions freedom and democracy together, but naming two things in one breath is not a claim that they always accompany each other.

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: Many a glorious deeds were done.

- Everyone of the boys loves to ride - everyone is singular.
