Arun went for a movie nine days ago. He goes to watch movies only on Thursdays. What day of the week is today?

A
Wednesday

B
Thursday

C
Friday

D
Saturday

Solution

Clearly ,it can be understood from the question that 9 days ago was a Thursday

Number of odd days in 9 days = 2 (As 9 - 7 = 2, reduced perfect multiple of 7 from total days)

Thus today = (Thursday + 2 odd days) = Saturday

Question 6
1 / -0.25

The average age of 32 students is 10 years. If a teacher age is also included, then their average age increases by one year. What is the teacher age in years?

A
33

B
21

C
43

D
45

Solution

Given:

The average age of 32 students is 10 years

When a teacher age is included, Their average age increase by one year

Concept:

Total age = Average age × Total people

Calculation:

Total age of 32 students = 10 × 32 = 320 years

When a teacher age is included,

Total people = 32 + 1 = 33

New Average = 10 + 1 = 11

Total age of 33 people = 33 × 11 = 363 years

Age of teacher = Total age of 33 people - Total age of 32 students = 363 - 320

∴ Age of teacher = 363 - 320 = 43 years

Question 7

1 / -0.25

Direction: Read the instructions carefully and answer the question below:

Six boxes L, M, N, O, P and Q are stacked one above the other but not necessarily in the same order. Six items namely Books, Erasers, Pen, Pencils, Sharpener and Stapler are kept in these six boxes but not necessarily in the same order.

Box L is kept at the top of the stack. Box M which contains Pencils is kept three boxes below the Box L. Box N is kept immediately above the box which contains Erasers. As many boxes are placed above the box N as many are placed below the box that contains Sharpener. The box O contains Pen and is kept below the box that contains Erasers. The box that contains Books is not placed immediately above the box that contains Erasers. Box P is placed above the box that contains Pencils.

What item is kept in Box P?

Sharpener

Books

Pencil

Erasers

Solution

Six boxes: L, M, N, O, P and Q

Six items: Books, Erasers, Pen, Pencils, Sharpener and Stapler

i) Box L is kept at the top of the stack.

ii) Box M which contains Pencils is kept three boxes below the Box L.

iii) Box N is kept immediately above the box which contains Erasers.

Case 1		Case 2
Box	Item	Box	Item
Box L		Box L
Box N
	Erasers
Box M	Pencil	Box M	Pencil
		Box N
			Erasers

iv) As many boxes are placed above the box N as many are placed below the box that contains Sharpener.

v) The box O contains Pen and is kept below the box that contains Erasers.

This eliminates case 2.

Case 1
Box	Item
Box L
Box N
	Erasers
Box M	Pencil
	Sharpener
Box O	Pen

vi) The box that contains Books is not placed immediately above the box that contains Erasers.

vii) Box P is placed above the box that contains Pencils.

Case 1

According to the given conditions,

Rule No.	Condition	Result
1	Number is immediately preceded by a number and immediately succeeded by a symbol	Symbols are to be coded as ‘y’
2	Second element is an even number and is immediately succeeded by a symbol	Even number is to be coded as the code for the symbol
3	There are no odd numbers	The codes of the second and last element have to be interchanged

Here, Rule 1 applies for ")64" so ')' and '+' will be coded as 'y'.

3rd rule also applies. As per 3rd rule, there are no odd numbers. So, the codes of the second and last element have to be interchanged.

Therefore, 8)646+2 will be coded as JUwRwyy.

Question 10

Direction: Study the following information and answer the question given below:

Eight persons J, L, M, R, S, T, V, and X lives in a four-storey building. Each floor has two flats namely Flat A and Flat B. Flat A is to the left of Flat B on each floor. Each flat has a different theme color namely Blue, Brown, Green, Orange, Pink, Purple, Red, and Yellow but not necessarily in the same order. The floors are numbered 1 to 4, the bottommost floor being numbered 1.

The flat with the Blue theme is immediately above R. V lives in a flat with a Pink theme on an even-numbered floor. Neither L nor M lives on Floor number 1. Two floors are there between the flats with Orange and Red theme. J lives on floor 1 in a flat with a Purple theme. Neither L nor X lives in the flat with a Yellow theme. The flat with a Brown theme is on an even-numbered floor. T lives in the flat to the immediate right of the flat with a Pink theme. S lives in the flat with a Green theme immediately above the flat with Red theme. T and X live in the same flat.

What is the theme of the flat in which R lives?

Pink

Brown

Red

Orange

Solution

Eight persons: J, L, M, R, S, T, V, and X

Flat: Flat A and B (Flat A is to the left of Flat B on each floor)( The floors are numbered 1 to 4, the bottommost floor being numbered 1)

Theme of Flat: Blue, Brown, Green, Orange, Pink, Purple, Red, and Yellow

i) V lives in a flat with a Pink theme on an even-numbered floor.

ii) T lives in the flat to the immediate right of the flat with a Pink theme.

Following are the possibilities we get,

	Case 1				Case 2
Floor No.	Flat A		Flat B		Flat A		Flat B
	Person	Theme	Person	Theme	Person	Theme	Person	Theme
4	V	Pink	T
3
2					V	Pink	T
1

iii) Two floors are there between the flats with Orange and Red theme.

iv) J lives on floor 1 in a flat with Purple theme.

v) S lives in the flat with Green theme immediately above the flat with Red theme.

This statement is violated in case 2, so it is eliminated.

	Case 1
Floor No.	Flat A		Flat B
	Person	Theme	Person	Theme
4	V	Pink	T	Orange
3
2			S	Green
1	J	Purple		Red

vi) The flat with Blue theme is immediately above R.

The only possibility is, R should live on the 2nd floor.

	Case 1
Floor No.	Flat A		Flat B
	Person	Theme	Person	Theme
4	V	Pink	T	Orange
3		Blue
2	R		S	Green
1	J	Purple		Red

vii) The flat with Brown theme is on an even-numbered floor.

viii) Neither L nor X lives in the flat with Yellow theme.

	Case 1
Floor No.	Flat A		Flat B
	Person	Theme	Person	Theme
4	V	Pink	T	Orange
3		Blue		Yellow
2	R	Brown	S	Green
1	J	Purple		Red

ix) Neither L nor M lives on Floor number 1.

x) T and X live in the same flat.

So, the final arrangement is:

Floor No.	Flat A		Flat B
	Person	Theme	Person	Theme
4	V	Pink	T	Orange
3	L	Blue	M	Yellow
2	R	Brown	S	Green
1	J	Purple	X	Red

So, the theme of the flat in which R lives is Brown.
