Quantitative Aptitude [ Question No: 1 To 4 ] :
The fractions \(\frac{44}{49}, \frac{33}{38}, \frac{22}{25}\) and \(\frac{24}{29}\) are written in descending order as
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
The descending order is \(\frac{44}{49}, \frac{22}{25}, \frac{33}{38}, \frac{24}{29}\).
Each fraction is 1 minus a small fraction, so the fraction with the smallest gap from 1 is the largest:
\[ \begin{aligned} \tfrac{44}{49} &= 1 - \tfrac{5}{49} \approx 0.898 \\ \tfrac{22}{25} &= 1 - \tfrac{3}{25} = 0.880 \\ \tfrac{33}{38} &= 1 - \tfrac{5}{38} \approx 0.868 \\ \tfrac{24}{29} &= 1 - \tfrac{5}{29} \approx 0.828 \end{aligned} \]
The order 44/49, 33/38, 24/29, 22/25 wrongly puts 22/25 last because its numbers are small. The other two options run in ascending or mixed order.
In a five digit number, the digit at ten's place is 8, digit at units place is one-fourth of the digit at ten's place, the digit at thousands place is 0, digit at hundreds place is twice that of units place and the digit at ten thousands place is thrice the digit at unit's place. What is the number ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
The number is 60482.
Fill the places one at a time:
- Tens: 8
- Units: one-fourth of 8 = 2
- Thousands: 0
- Hundreds: twice the units = 4
- Ten thousands: thrice the units = 6
Reading from ten thousands to units gives 6, 0, 4, 8, 2, that is 60482. The other options put the 0 or the 4 in the wrong place, for example 64082 swaps the thousands and hundreds digits.
Find the value of: \(1 - 2 + 3 - 4 + 5 - 6 + ... + 99 - 100\).
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
We can group the terms in pairs:
(1 - 2) + (3 - 4) + (5 - 6) + ... + (99 - 100).
Each pair sums to -1.
There are 100 terms in total, so there are 100/2 = 50 such pairs.
The total sum is 50 × (-1) = -50.
The value of \(5^{\frac{1}{4}}\times(125)^{0.25}\) is:
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Write both factors as powers of 5.
\[ 125^{0.25} = (5^{3})^{1/4} = 5^{3/4} \]
\[ 5^{1/4} \times 5^{3/4} = 5^{1} = 5 \]
Exponents add when the bases match.

Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: Only I follows
Course 1 goes to the cause: a company that has been losing money must cut waste and price its goods properly. Course 2 would simply pour more money into a company that has shown it cannot use money well, which does not address the loss at all. Only I follows.

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: 132
The gaps are multiples of thirteen: \( 15-2=13 \), \( 41-15=26 \), \( 80-41=39 \). The next gap is \( 52 \), giving \[ 80 + 52 = \mathbf{132} \]

Tanning : Leather : : Pyrotechnics : ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)

The relation is process : what it produces. Tanning produces leather from hides; pyrotechnics produces fireworks - the word means, literally, the art of fire.
A statement is followed by two Assumptions numbered I and II. Consider the Statement and Assumptions and decide which of the given Assumptions is/are implicit in the Statement ?
Statement : Retired persons should not be appointed for executive posts in other organisations.
Assumptions : I. Retired persons may lack the zeal and commitment to carry out executive's work.
II. Retired persons do not take interest in the work and welfare of the new organisation.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
The key gives neither Assumption I nor II is implicit.
An assumption is implicit only if the statement would make no sense without it. The statement is a plain prohibition: retired persons should not be appointed to executive posts in other organisations. It gives no reason, so any reason a reader supplies is a guess about the writer's thinking, not something the sentence needs to take for granted.
Assumption I (retired persons may lack zeal and commitment) is one possible reason, but the same advice could rest on age, on keeping posts open for younger people or on possible conflicts of interest. Assumption II goes further and says that retired persons do not take interest in the work and welfare of the new organisation, a sweeping claim the statement does not need. Neither is required, so neither is implicit.
A reader could argue that Assumption I is the most natural reason and so is implied; the key takes the stricter reading, and this explanation follows the key.
Statements: Some tables are T.V. Some T.V. are radios.
Conclusions:
1. Some tables are radios.
2. Some radios are tables.
3. All the radios are T.V.
4. All the T.V. are tables.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: None of the four.
Both statements are particular - some tables are T.V., some T.V. are radios - and the televisions in the two need not be the same, so nothing links tables to radios. The remaining conclusions turn particulars into universals. None of the four follows.
What is always in worry?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Correct answer: Unrest
The question asks what is always present, not what usually is. To worry is to be mentally disturbed, so unrest of mind is what worry consists of. One may worry over nothing difficult at all; non-cooperation and poignancy are unrelated.

Direction for [ Question No: 11 To 11 ] :
Identify the correct meaning of the idiomatic expression.
To take to one's heels
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
To take to one's heels means to run away.
The idiom pictures someone showing their heels as they flee: When the police arrived, the thieves took to their heels.
It has nothing to do with assault or concern, and 'to run oneself' is not an expression with this meaning.
Direction for [ Question No: 12 To 12 ] :
In the following questions four alternatives are given for the idiom/phrase italicised and underlined in the sentence. Choose the alternative which best expresses the meaning of idiom/phrase.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
It means to deceive.
To throw dust in someone's eyes is to mislead them by distracting their attention from what is really happening.
Direction for [ Question No: 13 To 13 ] :
In each of the following questions, out of the given alternatives,choose the one which best expresses the meaning of the given word.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
It is to inflict.
To wreak is to cause or inflict, chiefly in wreak havoc and wreak vengeance. It is not connected with reek, which means to smell strongly - the trap this question sets.
A famous brand of containers in the United States is called Tupper______________.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
It is ware.
Ware means goods or manufactured articles - Tupperware, hardware, silverware. To wear is to have clothing on and where asks about place; all three sound the same.
Computer Awareness [ Question No: 15 To 16 ] :
To protect a computer from virus, you should install -------- in your computer.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: antivirus
Antivirus software scans files and memory for known malicious code and blocks or removes it. Disk defragmenter, disk cleanup and the backup wizard are maintenance tools and offer no protection against infection.

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Insect-pollinated flowers have pollen that is rough and sticky, often with spines or a sticky coating, so that it clings to the visiting insect's body.
Wind-pollinated pollen is the opposite: small, smooth, dry and light, produced in enormous quantity so that a little of it reaches a stigma by chance.

The book argues that great powers decline when military commitments outrun the economic base that supports them - "imperial overstretch".
