Quantitative Aptitude [ Question No: 1 To 3 ] :
If \(P\dfrac{1}{3} + 4\dfrac{1}{R} = 9\dfrac{5}{6}\), then what is the difference between P and R?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
The expression is the mixed number P and 1/3, plus 4 and 1/R, equal to 9 and 5/6. Take the whole numbers and fractions separately: the fractions are 1/3 and 1/R, and the whole numbers are P and 4. Trying P = 5 gives 5 + 4 = 9, and the fractions must then make up 5/6, which needs 1/3 + 1/R = 5/6, so 1/R = 1/2 and R = 2. Then P - R = 5 - 2 = 3. So the difference is 3, option (B). A different value of P cannot make the fractions fit with a whole number R.
Simplify: \(5005 - 5000 \div 10\)
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Division comes before subtraction.
\[ 5000 \div 10 = 500 \]
\[ 5005 - 500 = 4505 \]
Working left to right would give \( 5 \div 10 = 0.5 \) - the first option, and the reason the order of operations matters here.
On decreasing each side of cube by 21%, its surface area decreases by?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
The surface area of a cube is \( 6a^{2} \), so it scales with the square of the edge.
\[ a' = 0.79a \quad\Longrightarrow\quad \frac{S'}{S} = (0.79)^{2} = 0.6241 \]
\[ \text{decrease} = 1 - 0.6241 = 0.3759 = 37.59\% \]
The drop is not 42% (twice 21%): the correction term \( \left(\tfrac{21}{100}\right)^{2} = 4.41\% \) must be added back, giving \( 42 - 4.41 = 37.59\% \).

2. There are some factors other than wealth which contribute to the quality of life.
3. Wealth does not contribute to the quality of life at all.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Clearly, I does not follow from the statement. So, it is not implicit. The statement mentions that quality of life does not depend only on wealth. This means that there are some other factors as well, which govern the quality of life. But this does not imply that wealth does not contribute at all. So, II is implicit while III is not.

Which of the following Venn - diagram correctly illustrates the relationship among the classes : Tennis fans, Cricket players, Students
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
The answer is diagram 1, three circles each overlapping the other two.
A person can be a tennis fan, a cricket player and a student all at once, and equally any two of these without the third. Every pair of classes therefore shares members, and the three classes share some members too, which is the three-circle diagram where all circles overlap.
Diagram 2 puts tennis fans and cricket players wholly inside students, which would make every fan and every player a student. Diagram 3 leaves the first and third circles apart, so no tennis fan could be a cricket player or the reverse. Diagram 4 places one class entirely inside another, which is not true of any pair.
Fill in the blank with suitable preposition in the following sentence.
____ the two I prefer tea.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: Between
“Between” is used for two, and “among” for three or more, so a choice restricted to two takes “between”. “From the two” and “in the two” are not idiomatic here. The rule is worth stating precisely: it is the number of items being distinguished that matters, not the number of groups.
How many even numbers are there in the following sequence of numbers which are immediately followed by an odd number as well as immediately preceded by an even number?
8 5 8 6 7 6 8 9 3 2 7 5 3 4 2 2 3 5 5 2 2 8 1 1 9 3 1 7 5 1
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: 4
Running through the row and keeping only those even numbers that have an even number immediately before them and an odd number immediately after them, four qualify; the rest fail on one side or the other.
A and B are children of D. Who is the father of A? To answer this question which of the statements (1) and (2) is necessary?
1.C is the brother of A and the son of E.
2.F is the mother B.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
A and B are children of D.
From (1), C is the brother B and son of E.
Since, the sex of D and E are not known. Hence (1) is not sufficient to answer the question.
From (2). F is the mother of B. Hence, F is also the mother of A. Hence D is the father of A.
Thus, (2) is sufficient to answer the question.
If the first and second letters in the word 'MISFORTUNE' were interchanged, also the third and the fourth letters, the fifth and the sixth letters and so on, which letter would then be the eighth letter counting to your left ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: T
MISFORTUNE has ten letters, so the swaps pair 1 with 2, 3 with 4, 5 with 6, 7 with 8 and 9 with 10:
I M F S R O U T E N
The eighth letter from the left is T.
Doing all five swaps before counting is essential - the eighth position is itself affected by the fourth swap, so counting in the original word would give N.
General Awareness / General Knowledge (GK) [ Question No: 11 To 19 ] :
How many members of the Rajasthan State legislative Assembly are required to support the introduction of the motion of no confidence?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
The motion needs the support of one-fifth of the total number of members of the Assembly.
Under the Assembly's rules of procedure, a motion of no confidence in the Council of Ministers may be moved only with the Speaker's consent. The Speaker asks those in favour to rise, and if not less than one-fifth of the members of the House rise, leave is granted. For a house of 200 members that is 40. The Board's key gives 1/5, and the Delhi Assembly's rule is worded the same way, which fits this pattern.
The other fractions are not the threshold. In the Lok Sabha the requirement is a fixed 50 members, which is close to one-tenth of its strength, and that is where the 1/10 distractor comes from. One-third and one-twelfth have no basis in the procedure.
Which of the following schedule contains 29 functional items placed within the preview of Panchayats?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
The 29 functional items for Panchayats are in the Eleventh Schedule.
The 73rd Amendment, 1992, added the Eleventh Schedule listing 29 subjects, such as agriculture, minor irrigation, drinking water and rural housing, that states may devolve to Panchayats (Article 243G). The paper's 'preview' means purview.
The Twelfth Schedule, added by the 74th Amendment, lists 18 functions of municipalities. The Eighth Schedule lists the official languages and the Tenth contains the anti-defection law.
Which of the following institution is also known as the banker to all the banks in India?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
The Reserve Bank of India is known as the banker to all banks, because commercial banks keep their reserves with it and borrow from it as a last resort. The SBI is the largest commercial bank but does not hold the other banks' reserves, the Ministry of Finance is a government department, and the Central Bank of India is only a commercial bank. So the RBI is the answer.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B

What does the abbreviation GPS stand for ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Roentgen discovered X-rays.
In 1895 he noticed a fluorescent screen glowing while he worked with a covered cathode-ray tube, and called the unknown radiation X. He received the first Nobel Prize in Physics in 1901.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Sporopollenin is a co-polymer of carotenoids and fatty acids, and it forms the outer wall of pollen grains and spores.
It is one of the most chemically resistant organic substances known, unaffected by acids and alkalis, which is why pollen survives in sediments for millions of years and can be used to reconstruct past vegetation.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Hormones are produced by the endocrine glands - the ductless glands that secrete directly into the bloodstream.
The pituitary, thyroid, adrenals, pancreas and gonads are all endocrine glands, so naming any one of them alone is incomplete.
Current Affairs [ Question No: 20 To 20 ] :
Which Country has introduced the concept of 'Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) _____ ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
The country is Singapore.
In 2021 Singapore introduced Vaccinated Travel Lanes (VTLs), which let fully vaccinated travellers from selected countries enter without serving quarantine, on condition of COVID-19 tests before and after arrival. The first lanes, with Germany and Brunei, opened in September 2021 and others followed, India among them from late November 2021.
Britain, China and the USA had their own pandemic entry rules, but the scheme named Vaccinated Travel Lane was Singapore's.
