Capgemini Aptitude Questions (previous year questions)

Capgemini Aptitude Questions – set 1

1) A person gains 10% while buying and 10% while selling by using false weights, then what is his
total pro t percentage?
(a) 15%              (b) 25%              (c) 20%             (d) 21%
Ans: 21%
Explanation
Here the 10% is successively increased, so (a+b+ab/100) can be used to nd the overall
percentage gain.  %Pro t = (10 + 10 + (10*10)/100)  = 21
2) Seema is 5 years older than her brother Mac. The product of their ages is 204 years. What is
the age of Mac?
(a) 12 years      (b) 8 years        (c) 6 years        (d) 10 years

Ans: 12 years
Explanation
Let the age of Mac will be x yrs. Then Seema age =x+5
Acc to question: (x+5)x = 204, by solving this we get x= 12 years.
3) Lalit marks up his goods by 40% and gives a discount of 10%. Apart from this, he uses a faulty
balance also, which reads 1000 gm for 800 gm. What is his net pro t percentage?
(a) 57.5%          (b) 57%              (c) 61%             (d) 62.5%

Ans: 57.5%
Explanation
Let us assume his CP/1000 gm = Rs 100
The SP/kg (800 gm) = Rs 126
So, his CP/800 gm = Rs 80
So, pro t = Rs 46
So, pro t percentage = 46/80 x 100 = 57.5%
4) In a bag, there are a certain number of toy-blocks with alphabets A, B, C and D written on
them. The ratio of blocks A:B:C:D is in the ratio 4:7:3:1. If the number of ‘A’ blocks is 50 more
than the number of ‘C’ blocks, what is the number of ‘B’ blocks?
(a) 120               (b) 350              (c) 240               (d) 210

Ans: 350
Explanation
Let the number of the blocks A,B,C,D be 4x, 7x, 3x and 1x respectively
4x = 3x + 50 → x = 50. So the number of ‘B’ blocks is 7*50 = 350.
5) If 60 ml of water contains 12% of chlorine, how much water must be added in order to create a
8% chlorine solution?
(a) 10ml             (b) 35ml            (c) 20ml            (d) 30ml
Ans: 30ml
Explanation
Let x ml of chlorine be present in water.
Then, 12/100 = x/60 → x = 7.2 ml
Therefore, 7.2 ml is present in 60 ml of water.
In order for this 7.2 ml to constitute 8% of the solution, we need to add extra water. Let this be y
ml, then 8/100 of y = 7.2ml → y = 90 ml.
So in order to get 8% chlorine solution, we need to add 90-60 = 30 ml of water.

6) If a : b = 7 : 5 and c : d = 2a : 3b, then ac : bd is :

(a) 14:15           (b) 50:147         (c) 98:75           (d) 15:14

Ans: 98:75
Explanation
Since a and b are in the ratio 7:5. Then, let a = 7x and b = 5x.
c = 2a = 2 * 7x = 14x and d = 3b = 3 * 5x = 15x.
c : d = 14 : 15  à ac : bd = 14 * 7 : 15 * 5 = 98 : 75

7) The average score of a cricketer for ten matches is 38.9 runs. If the average for the rst six
matches is 42, then nd the average for the last four matches.
(a) 33.25            (b) 33.5              (c) 34.25           (d) 35

Ans: 34.25
Explanation
Total sum of last 4 matches = (10×38.9)–(6×42)
=389–252=137
Average = 137/4 = 34.25

8) A grocer has a sale of Rs. 6435, Rs. 6927, Rs. 6855, Rs. 7230 and Rs. 6562 for 5 consecutive
months. How much sale must he have in the sixth month so that he gets an average sale
of Rs. 6500?
(a) 4991             (b) 5467             (c) 5987            (d) 6453

Ans: Rs. 4991

Explanation
Total sale for 5 months = Rs. (6435 + 6927 + 6855 + 7230 + 6562) = Rs. 34009.
Required sale = Rs.[(6500 x 6) – 34009]
= Rs. (39000 – 34009) = Rs.  4991.

9) The average of ve consecutive odd numbers is 61. What is the difference between the
highest and lowest numbers :
(a) 4                    (b) 8                    (c) 12               (d) 16

Ans: 8
Explanation
Let the numbers be x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6 and x + 8.
Then [x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) + (x + 8)] / 5 = 61.
Or 5x + 20 = 305 or x = 57.
So, required difference = (57 + 8) – 57 = 8

10) A car travels at a speed of 60 km/h and returns with a speed of 40 km/h, calculate the
average speed for the whole journey.
(a) 48 kmph                   (b) 38 kmph                    (c) 32 kmph       (d) 16 kmph

Ans: 48 kmph
Explanation:
Since equal distances are covered at 60 kmph and 40 kmph, we can apply the formula 2xy/(x+y).
Average speed = (2×40×60) / (40 + 60) = 48 kmph

Capgemini Aptitude Questions – set 2

11) A motorboat can travel at 5 km/hr in still water. It travelled 90 km downstream in a river and
then returned, taking altogether 100 hours. Find the rate of ow of the river.
(a) 3 kmph                      (b) 3.5 kmph                  (c) 2 kmph         (d) 4 kmph
 
Ans: 4 kmph
Explanation:
Speed of boat in still water = x = 5 km/hr.
Let rate of ow of river = y km/hr.
Therefore, speed of u/s = 5- y and speed of d / s = 5 + y
Hence, 90/(5+y) + 90/(5-y) = 100 ⇒ y = 4 km/hr.

(a) 4:7                (b) 15:18           (c) 10:13           (d) 5:8

Ans: 10:13
Explanation
[ (83 + 108 + 74 + 88 + 98) / (98 + 112 + 101 + 133 + 142) ]  =  [451/ 586] = 1/ 1.3
= 10/13  à 10:13

17) The sum of third and ninth term of an A.P is 8. Find the sum of the rst 11 terms of the
progression.
(a) 44                 (b) 22                 (c) 19                 (d) None

Ans: 44
Explanation
The third term t3 = a + 2d
The ninth term t9 = a + 8d
t3 + t9 = 2a + 10d = 8
Sum of rst 11 terms of an AP is given by,
S11 = 11/2 [2a + 10d] = 11/2 * 8 = 44
18) How many numbers between 11 and 90 divisible by 7?
(a) 10                 (b) 11                 (c) 12                 (d) 13

Ans: 11
Explanation:The required numbers are 14, 21, 28, … 84
This is an A.P with a = 14, d = (21-14) = 7
Let the number of terms be n, then Tn = 84 à a + (n-1) d = 84
14 + (n-1) * 7 = 84
n = 11

19) The price of 2 sarees and 4 shirts is Rs. 1600. With the same money one can buy 1 saree and
6 shirts. If one wants to buy 12 shirts, how much shall he have to pay?
(a) Rs. 1200                    (b) Rs. 2400                    (c) Rs. 4800       (d) None

Ans: Rs. 2400

Explanation
Let the price of a saree and a shirt be Rs. x and Rs. y respectively.
Then, 2x + 4y = 1600 …. (i)  and   x + 6y = 1600 …. (ii).
Divide equation (i) by 2, we get the below equation.
=> x +  2y =  800. — (iii)
Now subtract (iii) from (ii)
x +  6y = 1600  (-)
x +  2y =  800
———————
4y =  800
———————
Therefore, y = 200.
Now apply value of y in (iii)
=>  x + 2 x 200 = 800
=>  x + 400 = 800
Therefore x = 400
Solving (i) and (ii) we get x = 400, y = 200.
Cost of 12 shirts = Rs. (12 x 200) = Rs. 2400.

20) Simplify:

(469 + 174)2 – (469 – 174)2 =?

 (469       x  174)

(a) 2                    (b) 4                    (c) 295                             (d) 643

Ans:  4
Explanation:
Given expression à    (a + b)2 – (a – b)2 / ab
= 4ab / ab
= 4 (where a = 469, b = 174)
