Quantitative Aptitude [ Question No: 1 To 4 ] :
How many natural numbers between 17 and 80 are divisible by 6?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
The first multiple of 6 after 17 is 18 (6x3). The last multiple of 6 before 80 is 78 (6x13).
The numbers form an A.P.: 18, 24, ..., 78.
The number of terms can be found by the indices of the multiples: 3, 4, ..., 13.
Number of terms = (Last index - First index) + 1 = (13 - 3) + 1 = 11.
For a group of 250 candidates, the number of candidates who passed in Physics is 120, in Chemistry is 100 and in Maths is 90. 40 passed in both Physics and Chemistry, 35 in both Physics and Maths, and 30 in both Chemistry and Maths. If only 15 candidates passed in all three subjects, how many candidates failed in all three subjects?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
We first find the number of candidates who passed in at least one subject, n(P ∪ C ∪ M).
n(P∪C∪M) = n(P)+n(C)+n(M) - n(P∩C) - n(C∩M) - n(P∩M) + n(P∩C∩M)
= 120 + 100 + 90 - 40 - 30 - 35 + 15
= 310 - 105 + 15 = 205 + 15 = 220.
Number of candidates who passed in at least one subject is 220.
Total candidates = 250.
Number who failed in all three = Total - Passed in at least one = 250 - 220 = 30.
A and B run a km and A wins by 1 minute. A and C run a km and ‘A’ wins by 375 metres. B and C run a km and B wins by 30 seconds. Find the time taken by each to run a km.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Since A beats B by 60 seconds and B beats C by 30 seconds. So, A beats C by 90 seconds. But, it being given that A beats C by 375 metres. So it means that Covers 375 metres in 90 seconds.
Time taken by C to cover 1 km =90/375×1000 seconds= 240 seconds
Time taken by A to cover 1 km = (240-90) seconds = 150 seconds
Time taken by B to cover 1 km = (240-30) seconds= 210 seconds.
Arrange the fractions in ascending order.

People speculate when they consider a situation and assume something to be true based on inconclusive evidence. Which situation below is the best example of Speculation ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
The best example is Theo, who guesses why Emily is in tears.
Speculation is assuming something is true on inconclusive evidence. Theo sees tears and guesses a death in the family, without any proof.
Francine acts on a written policy, so her evidence is not inconclusive. Mary only regrets her choice of transport. Jennifer is confident after consulting several guidebooks and her agent, which is conclusive enough evidence, not a guess.

Giant : Dwarf : : Genius : ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: Idiot
The relation is extreme : its opposite extreme. A giant is the opposite of a dwarf in size; a genius is the opposite of an idiot in intellect. Wicked and gentle describe character rather than the far end of ability.
If '+' means '-', '×' means '+', '÷' means '×', '-' means '÷', then what is '?' in the given equation? 325 - 13 × 99 ÷ 25 + 127 = ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
The value is 2373.
Replace each sign by its new meaning: '−' means ÷, '×' means +, '÷' means ×, and '+' means −. The equation 325 − 13 × 99 ÷ 25 + 127 becomes 325 ÷ 13 + 99 × 25 − 127. Working it out: 325 ÷ 13 = 25, 99 × 25 = 2475, so 25 + 2475 − 127 = 2373.
2973, 2627 and 2273 come from mistakes in applying the new signs or the order of operations.
The order of operations matters after the signs are replaced: do the division and multiplication first, and then the addition and subtraction. Here 325 ÷ 13 = 25 and 99 × 25 = 2475 come first, and then 25 + 2475 = 2500 and 2500 − 127 = 2373.
E, F, G and H are sitting in a straight line equidistant from each other (but not necessarily in the same order). Some of them are facing south, while some are facing north.
G sits second to the right of H, who faces north.
E is not an immediate neighbour of G and faces the same directions as G.
Both the immediate neighbours of H face the same direction.
G sits at one of the extreme ends of the line.
Both the immediate neighbours of F face the opposite directions.
How many persons in the given arrangement are facing south?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Three persons face south. G sits second to the right of H, who faces north and so has east on the right. G is at an extreme end, so H is second from the other end. E is not next to G, so E is at the far end and F is between H and G.
F's two neighbours, H and G, face opposite directions, so G faces south. E faces the same way as G, which is south. H's neighbours E and F face the same way, so F is south too. So E, F and G face south, and H faces north.
The following question is based on the following alphabet series.
A B C D E F G H I J K L M
N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Which letter is exactly midway between H and S in the given alphabet ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: No such letter
H is the 8th letter and S the 19th, so the midpoint is
\[ \frac{8+19}{2} = 13.5 \]
which falls between M and N rather than on a letter. There are ten letters between H and S, an even number, so no single letter can sit exactly in the middle.
The check is quick: a midpoint letter exists only when the two positions have the same parity, and 8 and 19 do not.

A geyser is a vent that ejects a jet of hot water and steam at intervals. Groundwater collects in a constricted channel over hot rock, is heated above boiling point under pressure, and finally flashes into steam and blows the column out.
A hot spring discharges steadily instead of erupting, and a crater is the mouth of a volcano.
The President of India can be removed from office by
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: Impeachment for violation of the Constitution
The President can be removed only by impeachment, under Article 61, and only on the ground of violation of the Constitution - a phrase the Constitution nowhere defines. The procedure is deliberately difficult. The charge may originate in either House. The proposal must be signed by at least one quarter of that House’s total membership, with fourteen days’ notice, and must be passed by a majority of not less than two thirds of the total membership of that House. The other House then investigates the charge, and the President has the right to appear and be represented. If that House also passes the resolution by a two-thirds majority of its total membership, the President is removed from the date of the resolution. Notably, the nominated members of both Houses take part in impeachment, though they have no part in the election - while the state assemblies, which do elect the President, have no part in removal. No Indian President has ever been impeached.
The preamble declares India as a sovereign state which implies
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Sovereignty means India is free to conduct both her internal and her external affairs.
Internally no authority above the Constitution can dictate to her; externally she is free to make treaties, join organisations and set her own foreign policy. Membership of the Commonwealth does not qualify this, since it carries no obligation to any foreign power.
Microbiology [ Question No: 18 To 19 ] :
All are true regarding clostridium tetani except:
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: Man-to-man transmission is seen
This is the false statement. Tetanus is acquired from the environment, not from other people: spores enter through a wound, and a patient with tetanus is not infectious. It is precisely for this reason that there is no herd immunity and every individual must be immunised. The other three are true - heat-resistant spores, an incubation period usually of six to eleven days, and three primary doses for full protection.
Which of the following organisms has the smallest genome?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Correct answer: M. genitalium
Mycoplasma genitalium has about 580,000 base pairs and some 470 genes, among the smallest of any cell able to replicate independently. Its economy comes from parasitism - it takes most of what it needs from its host - which is why it has been used to investigate the minimum gene set for life.
Pharmacology [ Question No: 20 To 20 ] :
Ibuprofen is a common drug used to relieve ______.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Ibuprofen is used to relieve pain.
Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). By blocking the cyclo-oxygenase enzymes it reduces the production of prostaglandins, which cause pain, inflammation and fever. It is used for headache, toothache, menstrual cramps, muscle and joint pain, and to bring down fever.
It does not treat vomiting, for which antiemetics are used, or constipation, for which laxatives are used. Allergies are treated with antihistamines; NSAIDs can actually trigger allergic reactions in some people.
