Quantitative Aptitude [ Question No: 1 To 1 ] :
Mohan Lal purchased an article for Rs. 35,000. He allows a discount of 12% of its marked price and still gains 10%. Then the marked price of the article is :
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
The marked price is Rs. 43,750.
To gain 10% on a cost of Rs. 35,000, the selling price must be \(35000 \times 1.10 = 38500\). This selling price is the marked price less a 12% discount, so it is 88% of the marked price:
\[ \begin{aligned} 0.88 \times \text{MP} &= 38500 \\ \text{MP} &= \frac{38500}{0.88} = 43750 \end{aligned} \]
Check: 12% of 43,750 is 5,250, and 43,750 - 5,250 = 38,500, a gain of 3,500, which is 10% of 35,000. The other figures are close but give the wrong gain.

In each question below is given a statement followed by three assumptions numbered I, II and III. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions, decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement and choose your answer accordingly.
Statement: Quality of life of a person is not dependent only on his wealth.
Assumptions:
1. The aim of most people is just to acquire more wealth.
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.
Consider the following three statements:
(i) Some roses are red.
(ii) All red flowers fade quickly.
(iii) Some roses fade quickly.
Which of the following statements can be logically inferred from the above statements?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
The valid inference is If (i) and (ii) are true, then (iii) is true.
If some roses are red and all red flowers fade quickly, then those red roses fade quickly, so some roses fade quickly.
The other options try to infer something from a false premise, which does not work. If (ii) is false, some red flowers may still fade quickly, and other roses may too, so (iii) could be either true or false; neither "then (iii) is false" nor "then (iii) is true" follows. Likewise, if (i) and (ii) are both false, nothing is settled about whether some roses fade quickly.
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 sixteenth to the right of the letter which is fourth to the left of I ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: U
Work inwards from the innermost description. Four to the left of I: H, G, F, E - so the reference letter is E, the 5th of the alphabet.
Sixteen to the right of E is the 21st letter:
\[ 5 + 16 = 21 \rightarrow U \]
Doing the arithmetic on the position numbers is faster and safer than counting letters twice, and it makes the two steps independent of each other.

The following questions have a word each in bold followed by four choices. In each question, find out which of the choices is SIMILAR or CLOSEST in meaning to the word in bold :
CRAVE
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
The word closest in meaning to CRAVE is Desire.
To crave something is to want it very strongly, as one craves food when hungry or craves attention. Desire, a strong wish or longing for something, is the closest synonym; craving is simply an intense desire.
Disdain is the opposite feeling, contempt for something considered unworthy. Collapse means to fall down or fail suddenly. Serious means grave or earnest and is an adjective, not a word for wanting. None of them shares the meaning of crave.

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : E
There is no error.
But for introduces an unreal condition, and could not have been completed is the perfect passive modal that matches it.

In the sentence below, find the part that contains an error. If the sentence is correct as it stands, choose "No error".
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
The error is in and never you will get it back.
When never is placed at the front of a clause the subject and auxiliary invert - and never will you get it back. Without inversion the word order is not English.
Today, we consider Ashoka as a great ruler because of the copious evidence he left behind in the form of stone carved edicts. Historians tend to correlate greatness of a king at his time with the availability of evidence today.
Which of the following can be logically inferred from the above sentences?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
The inference is A king's greatness, as we know him today, is interpreted by historians.
The passage says we consider Ashoka great because of the evidence he left, and that historians correlate a king's greatness with the evidence available today. So the greatness we now attribute to a king is a judgement historians make from surviving evidence.
'completely forgotten' is too strong: the passage links evidence with judgements of greatness, not with being remembered at all. Ashoka's motive for carving edicts is never discussed, so the option about earning historians' respect reads intent into the text. Statues are not mentioned; the evidence is edicts.
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.
Bamboo is a name used ______ many types of tall, tree-like grasses. There are hundreds of different species, or types, of bamboo in the ______. They grow in mild to warm and humid areas.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
For, world fits both blanks. A name is used for many types of grasses and the species of bamboo are found in the world. "Used to many types", "used in many types" and "used by many types" are not idiomatic, and "of bamboo in the globe, earth or country" is not the natural phrase for hundreds of species around the world. In bamboo's definition the first blank needs a preposition that links "a name used" to the plants it names, and the second needs a noun that says where the species grow, which is the world.
An estimated one in every five people is ______________ (ABLE) to keep their spending habits under control
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: Unable
The sentence reports a failure to control spending, so the adjective must be negative: the prefix un- turns able into unable. Able to would reverse the meaning.
Computer Awareness [ Question No: 11 To 13 ] :
The high level language program before ready to be executed must go through various process except
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: Controlling
A high level program is translated into object code, linked with the libraries it uses, and loaded into memory before it can run. Controlling is not a stage in that sequence, which is why it is the exception.

General Awareness / General Knowledge (GK) [ Question No: 14 To 17 ] :
When was Rajasthan Seva Sangh founded?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
The Rajasthan Seva Sangh was founded in 1919.
It was set up in 1919 at Wardha by Vijay Singh Pathik and his associates, and its office moved to Ajmer in 1920. It backed peasant movements such as Bijolia and Begun and used the press to bring the grievances of people in the princely states to national notice.
1915, 1920 and 1925 are not its founding year; 1920 is when its headquarters shifted to Ajmer, which makes it the likeliest distractor.

Current Affairs [ Question No: 18 To 20 ] :
Who won the gold medal in IQ Foil event of Senior National Sailing Championship 2024 ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
The key gives Vidhyanshi Mishra (B).
I could not confirm this. I found no report of the IQ Foil results of the 2024 Senior National Sailing Championship that names the gold medallist, and nothing that points to Neha Thakur, Preeti Rajak or Ashi Chouksey instead. The IQ Foil is a hydrofoiling windsurfing class.
The key is kept as printed; the question depends on a sports news item from 2024 that I could not check.

All three statements are correct, so the answer is 1, 2 and 3.
The Zero Hunger Programme was launched on World Food Day, 16 October 2017, through interventions in the farm sector, with a focus on agriculture, nutrition and health (1). It is a dedicated farm-based programme aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals, especially SDG 2 of ending hunger by 2030 (2).

Swaminathan Research Foundation and the Biotechnology Industry Research Assistance Council, starting in districts of Gorakhpur (Uttar Pradesh), Koraput (Odisha) and Thane (Maharashtra) (3).
Since every statement is true, each narrower option leaves out at least one.
