marriage.
Options :
1. delighted with
2. prepared with
3. provided with
4. blessed with

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. blessed with.
"Delighted with" means experiencing great joy or satisfaction with something, but it does not convey the same
meaning as having a baby boy.
"Prepared with" means being ready or equipped with something, but it does not convey the idea of having a baby
boy.
"Provided with" means being given or supplied with something, but it does not convey the idea of having a baby boy
in the same way as "blessed with" does.
The verb "blessed" is used in this context to convey the idea that Arun and his wife were fortunate or favored to
Page No: 2
have a baby boy.
The preposition "with" is used to indicate the possession or attainment of something, in this case, a baby boy.

Question 11 :
A certain sum of money becomes triple of itself in 26 years at simple interest. In how many years it will becomes five times
of itself?
Options :
1. 64 years
2. 52 years
3. 56 years
4. 60 years
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 52 years.
Given:
Time taken to triple the money = 26 years
Concept Used:
\(SI = {P \times R \times T \over 100}\) ...(i)
Explanation:
Let the principle be P and the rate of interest be R% per annum.
The money triples in 26 years, amount = 3P
Therefore, Interest = 3P - P = 2P
Now, using equation (i), we get
2P = \(P \times R \times 26 \over 100\)
R = 200/26 = 100/13
Now, for the money to become 5 times, amount = 5P
Ineterest = 5P - P = 4P
Page No: 10
So, using equation (i), we get
4P = \(P \times {100 \over 13}\times T \over 100\)
400 = (100/13) T
T = 52
Hence the time required for the money to be its 5 times is 52 years.

Solution :
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 20/27 m/sec.
Given:
Speed of boat in still water, x = \(16 \over 3\) km/hr
Concept USed:
Time = Distance/speed
Downstream speed = speed of boat in still water + speed of stream
Upstream speed = speed of boat in still water - speed of stream
Explanation:
Let the speed of stream be y km/hr and distance travelled be D km.
So, Downstream speed = x + y = \(16 \over 3\) + y
And Upstream speed = x - y = \(16 \over 3\) - y
Now, according to the given question,
\({D \over (x - y)} = 3({D \over x + y})\)
\(16 \over 3\) + y = 3( \(16 \over 3\) - y)
\(16 \over 3\) + y = 16 - 3y
4y = 16 - \(16 \over 3 \)
4y = \(32 \over 3 \)
y = \(8 \over 3 \)
Now, speed of stream in m/sec = \({8 \over 3} \times {5 \over 18}\) = \(20 \over 27\)
HEnce the speed of the stream is \(20 \over 27\) m/sec.

Solution :
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e.99795.
Given :
Numbers = 7, 9, 11
Remainder in each case = 3
Concept Used:
The largest number which when divided by 7, 9 and 11, leaves the same remainder as 3 in each case is obtained by
subtracting the (LCM - 3) from the largest number.
Explanation:
The largest five digit number = 99999
Now, LCM of(7, 9, 11) = 693
When divided by 693, 99999 will leave the remainder as 207
The largest 5-digit number which is divisible by 693 = 99999 - 207 = 99792
Now, as it leaves remainder 3 in each case, the required number = 99792 + 3 = 99795
Hence the number which when divided by 7, 9 and 11, leaves the same remainder as 3 in each case, is 99795.

Concept Used:
If two triangles are similar, the ratio of their sides are equal and ratio of their areas are equal to the square of the sides of
the triangle.
Explanation:
Using the property of similar triangles, we have

2
(Ratio of areas of triangles) = (Ratio of sides of the triangles)
1/2
(Ratio of sides of the triangles) = (Ratio of areas of triangles)
1/2
(Ratio of sides of the triangles) = (\(\sqrt{3} : \sqrt{2}\))
(Ratio of sides of the triangles) = âˆœ3 : âˆœ2
Hence the ratio of the corresponding sides of the two triangles is âˆœ3 : âˆœ2.

4. 32.32 percent
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e.46.53 percent.
Page No: 48
Given:
Total sales of 7 companies = 2160
Explanation:
The total sales of P, R and S = \({(26Â° + 12Â° + 70Â°) \over 360Â° } \times 2160\)
The total sales of P, R and S = \({108Â°\over 360Â° } \times 2160\) = 648
The total sales of Q, T and U = \({(150Â° + 37Â° + 15Â°) \over 360Â° } \times 2160\)
The total sales of Q, T and U = \({202Â° \over 360Â° } \times 2160\) = 1212
The required difference = 1212 - 648 = 564
Hence the total sales of P, R and S is \({564 \over 1212} \times 100\) = 46.53% less than the total sales of Q, T and U.

2. 14.1% gain
3. 11.4% gain
4. 11.4 % loss
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e.14.1% gain.
Given:
Loss %, a = 11%
Less weight, b = 22%
Concept Used:
Profit/Loss % = {(b + a)/(100 - b)} × 100
Explanation:
Putting the given values in the formula, we get
Profit/Loss % = {(22 - 11)/78} × 100
Profit/Loss % = (11/78) × 100
Profit/Loss % = 14.1 > 0
Hence his percentage profit is 14.1%
Question 71 :
A shopkeeper earns 10% on an investment but loses 20% on another investment. If the ratio of the two investments is 2 :
3, then the combined loss percentage is:
Options :
Page No: 53
5.5%
2. 7%
3. 6%
4. 8%
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 8%.
Given:
Ratio of investments = 2 : 3
Gain on one investment = 10%
Loss on other investment = 20%
Explanation:
Let the first and second investments be 200 and 300 respectively.
Then, total amount of investement = 500
Now, gain on first investment = 10%
So, amount after gain = \(200 \times {110 \over 100}\) = 220
Also, loss on second investment = 20%
So, amount after loss = \(300 \times {80\over 100}\) = 240
Now the total amount after both profit and loss = 220 + 240 = 460
Now overall loss = 500 - 460 = 40
Therefore, loss % = \({40 \over 500} \times 100\) = 8.
Hence the combined loss percentage is 8%.
Question 72 :
Which of the following statement is correct? I. The value of 1002 - 992 + 982 - 972 + 962 - 952 + 942 - 932 + ........... + 222
- 212 is 4840. II. The value of ((k^2+{{1} over k^2})(k-{{1} over k})(k^4+{{1} over k^4})(k+{{1} over k})(k^4-{{1} over
k^4})) is ((k^16-{{1} over k^16}))
Options :
Page No: 54
Neither I nor II
2. Only II
3. Only I
4. Both I and II
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Only I.
For statement I:
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
(100 - 99 ) + (98 - 97 ) + (96 - 95 ) + (94 - 93 ) + ........... + (22 - 21 )
(100 + 99)(100 - 99) + (98 + 97)(98 - 97) + .......+(22 + 21)(22 - 21)
100 + 99 + 98 + 97 + .....+ 22 + 21
Now, sum of first n terms = n(n+1)/2
So, sum of 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ....+ 20 = 20 × 21/2 = 210
Also, sum of 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ......+ 97 + 98 + 99 + 100 = 100 × 101/2 = 5050
Now thw required sum = 5050 - 210 = 4840.
So, statement I is correct.
for statement II:
\((k^2+{{1} \over k^2})(k-{{1} \over k})(k^4+{{1} \over k^4})(k+{{1} \over k})(k^4-{{1} \over k^4})\)
\(({k^2 + {1 \over k^2}})(k^2 - {1 \over k^2})(k^8 - {1 \over k^8})\)
\((k^4 - {1\over k^4})(k^8 - {1 \over k^8})\) which is not equal to

\((k^{16}-{{1} \over k^{16}})\)
So statement II is incorrect.
Hence statement I is correct.
Question 73 :
A contractor decided to complete a work in 80 days and employed 60 men at the beginning and 20 men additionally after
20 days and got the work completed as per schedule. If he had not employed the additional men, how many extra days
would he have needed to complete the work (round off to the nearest integer)?
Options :
Page No: 55
32 days
2. 20 days
3. 30 days
4. 26 days
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 20 days.
Given:
Time taken to complete the work = 80 days
Number of men worked for 20 days = 60
Number of men worked after 20 days = 80
Concept Used:
\((Men_1 \times efficiency_1 \times {day_1 \over wok_1}) =(Men_2 \times efficiency_2 \times {day_2 \over wok_2})
\)
Explanation:
After 20 days, the remaining work is don by 80 men in 65 days.
Now, 60 men will complete this work in 48.75 = 49 days
The extra days needed to complete the work = 80 - (40 + 20) =20days.
Question 74 :
The length of the side of a cube is 4.2 cm. What is the volume of the largest sphere that can be taken out of the cube?
Options :
3

3
2. 20.50 cm
3
3. 38.80 cm
3
4. 48.60 cm
Solution :
Page No: 56
3
The correct answer isOption 3 i.e. 38.80 cm
Given:
Length of cube = 4.2 cm
Concept USed:
If a sphere is taken out of a cube, side of cube = diameter of sphere
Volume of sphere = \({4 \over 3} \pi r^3\)
Explanation:
Let the radius of sphere be r.
Now diameter of sphere = side of cube
diameter of sphere = 4.2 r = diameter/2 = 2.1 cm
Now, volume of sphere = \({4 \over 3} \times {22 \over 7} \times (2.1)^3\) = 38.80
3
Hence the volume of the sphere is 38.80 cm .
Question 75 :
A tradesman marks his goods 20% above his cost price. If he allows his customer 20%discount on the marked price, how
much profit or loss does he make, if any:
Options :
1. 2% loss
2. 4% loss
3. 1% profit
4. 3% profit
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 4% loss.
Given:
discount = 20%
M.P. = 20% above C.P.
Page No: 57
Concept Used:
\(S.P. = M.P. \times {(100 - D) \over 100}\)
Profit/Loss% = \({(S.P. - C.P.)\over C.P.}Â \times 100\)
Explanation:
Let the C.P. of the goods be 100.
So, M.P. = 100 + (20%o of 100) = 120
Now, S.P. = \(120 \times {(100 - 20) \over 100}\)
S.P. = 120 × 0.8 = 96
So, Profit/Loss% = \({(96 - 100) \over 100} \times 100\) = -4
Hence the tradesman made a 4% loss.
Question 76 :
What will be the value of cos x cosec x – sin x sec x?
Options :
1. cot 2x/2
2. tan 2x
3. cot 2x
4. 2cot 2x
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 2cot 2x.
Concept Used:
cosecx = 1/sinx
secx = 1/cosx
tanx = 1/cotx
sinx/cosx = tanx
cosx/sinx = cotx
Page No: 58
\(cot2x = {{cot^2x -1} \over 2cotx}\)
Explanation:
From the given question, we have
cos x cosec x – sin x sec x = cosx/sinx - sinx/cosx
cotx - tanx
cotx - 1/cotx
\({cot^2x - 1} \over cotx \)
Now, multiplying numerator and dinominator by 2, we get
\(2{cot^2x - 1}\over 2cotx\) = 2cot2x.
Hence the value of cos x cosec x – sin x sec x is 2cot2x.
Question 77 :
A varies directly as the positive square root of B, and inversely as the cube of C. If A =15, when B = 27 and C = 2, then
find B when A = 9 and C = 2.
Options :
1. 281/42
2. 243/25
3. 264/37
4. 275/51
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 243/25.
Given:
A = 15 when B = 27 and C = 2
Also A = \(k _1\sqrt{B}\) and A = \(k_2 \over C^3\)
Where k1 and k2 are proportionality constants.
Explanation:
Page No: 59
From the given question,
15 = \(k _1\sqrt{27}\)
k1 = \(15 \over 3 \sqrt{3}\)
k1 = \(5 \over \sqrt{3}\)
Now, when A = 9
Then 9 = \(5 \over \sqrt{3}\) × \(\sqrt{B}\)
\(\sqrt{B}\) = \(9 \sqrt{3} \over 5\)
Squarying both sides we get
B = 243/25
Hence the value of B = 243/25.
Question 78 :
The average weight of 5 men decreases by 3 kg when one of them weighing 150 kg is replaced by another person. Find
the weight of the new person.
Options :
1. 125 kg
2. 100 kg
3. 120 kg
4. 135 kg
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 135 kg.
Given:
Average of 5 men decreases by 3 kg.
Concept Used:
Total weight = Average weight × number of men
Explanation:
Page No: 60
Let the average weight of 5 men be x kg and weight of new man be N kg
Now, total weight of 5 men = x × 5 = 5x
According to the given question,
5x - 150 + N = 5(x - 3)
5x - 150 + N = 5x - 15
N = 150 - 15
N = 135
HEnce the weight of the new man is 135 kg.
Question 79 :
Select the correct passive form of the given sentence. My parents have booked a mini-getaway for me.
Options :
1. A mini-getaway was being booked for me by my parents.
2. A mini-getaway had been booked for me by my parents.
3. A mini-getaway was been booked for me by my parents.
4. A mini-getaway has been booked for me by my parents.
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. A mini-getaway has been booked for me by my parents.
To convert the given active form of the sentence into its passive form, follow these steps:
Identify the subject and the object in the active sentence. In this case, the subject is "my parents" and the object is
"a mini-getaway."
Move the object (a mini-getaway) to the beginning of the sentence and place it as the new subject.
Add the auxiliary verb "be" in the appropriate form (based on the tense of the active sentence) before the past
participle of the main verb. In this case, the verb is "booked," which is the past participle of "book."
Use the appropriate form of the auxiliary verb "be" based on the tense of the active sentence. In this case, since the
active sentence is in the present perfect tense ("have booked"), we use "has been" for the singular subject "a mini-
Page No: 61
getaway."
Place the original subject ("my parents") after the auxiliary verb "be" to indicate who performed the action. Use the
preposition "by" to introduce the agent of the action (optional).
Thus, the passive form of the given sentence is:
A mini-getaway has been booked for me by my parents.
Question 80 :
The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. There
are some monkeys / on the roof of the / carriage but Madhav / did not see them.
Options :
1. on the roof of the
2. There are some monkeys
3. carriage but Madhav
4. did not see them
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. There are some monkeys.
The first part of the given sentence is erroneous in nature as it contains the error of tense.
'Are' is used when the sentence is in its present form, but the sentence is in the past tense.
Thus, 'are' should be replaced with 'were' to bring the tense of the whole sentence in alignment.
Thus, the corrected sentence is:
There were some monkeys on the roof of the carriage but Madhav did not see them.
Question 81 :
Select the most appropriate synonym of the word Amend.
Options :
1. Rectify

Question 82 :
Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence. If there is no need to
substitute it, select ‘No substitution’. Rita will never have changed her job if she would have been promoted.
Options :
1. No substitution
2. should never have
3. would never have
4. shall never have
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. would never have.
Since, the given sentence is in the past tense. Use of 'will' in the given sentence is erroneous.
Will indicates a future perfect tense, which goes in contradiction with the tense of rest of the sentence.
So, we need to replace 'will' with its past form i.e., would.
Page No: 63
Therefore, the corrected sentence will be:
Rita would never have changed her job if she would have been promoted.
Question 83 :
Select the INCORRECTLY spelt word in the following sentence. Sudhir’s harrassment is not only perceivable and
occasional but also has become a matter of humorous incident before his colleague.
Options :
1. colleague
2. harrassment
3. Humorous
4. perceivable
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. harrassment.

Question 84 :
Page No: 64
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank. The trainee wanted to know the________of the course to get a better
understanding of the job prospects
Options :
1. ins and outs
2. bird’s eye view
3. crying need
4. tall talk
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. ins and outs.
The phrase "ins and outs" is an idiomatic expression that means the detailed or comprehensive knowledge or
understanding of a subject, process, or situation.
"Bird's eye view" refers to a general or overall perspective, but it does not convey the same meaning as "ins and
outs" in terms of a detailed understanding.
"Crying need" refers to an urgent or pressing necessity, but it does not convey the same meaning as "ins and outs"
in terms of understanding a course.
"Talk talk" does not have a specific meaning or relevance in this context and does not convey the same meaning as
"ins and outs."
Thus, the most appropriate filler for the given blank is "ins and outs".
Therefore, the completed sentence is:
The trainee wanted to know the ins and outs of the course to get a better understanding of the job prospects.

Options :
1. The peon is opening the gate.
2. The peon opened the gate.
3. The peon was opening the gate.
4. The gate was being opened by the peon
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. The peon opened the gate.
To convert the passive form of the given sentence into its active form, the following steps can be followed:
Identify the subject and object of the passive sentence. In this case, the subject is "the peon" and the object is "the

The Sentence P comes next, stating that the heat pumps are already available on the market but they are
expensive.
The Sentence Q follows and concludes by providing more details about the cost of heat pumps, which depends on
the type of heat pump and the size of the home.
Thus, the corrected paragraph would be:
Climate advisers anticipate that most homes in future will be warmed by heatpumps. These devices extract warmth from
the air or the ground, or from water - a bit like a fridge operating in reverse. They are on the market already but they are
costly. Their cost depends on the sort you install and the size of your home.

The given sentence contains a grammatical error. The subject-verb agreement is incorrect as the subject "she" is
singular and the verb "were" is plural.
Page No: 69
In this sentence, the verb "was" agrees with the singular subject "she."
Also, instead of thought, it should be caught, as nobody is sacked just upon a thought of felony.
The art history teacher was sacked after she was caught taking school supplies.
Question 91 :
Rearrange the parts of the sentence in correct order. Lighting has P. to become a disrupter and Q. become human-centric
as our R. requirements change during the day and S. lighting has to adapt to our change in needs
Options :
1. PSQR
2. RPQS
3. QRSP
4. PQRS
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. PQRS.
The sentence follows a compound-complex structure. If we anlyse the given statements, we realise that the features
of lightening are being referred to.
It is said that light has become a disruptor and human centric. Clearly, conjunction 'and' in statement P shows that it
will come before the sentence Q.
Further statement R talks about the requirement change connecting it with Sentence S which reflects upon how
lightening needs to mold itself.
Thus, the correct sentence would be:
Lighting has to become a disrupter and become human-centric as our requirements change during the day and lighting
has to adapt to our change in needs.

3. Aryan said to me, “You are known where to find me.”
4. Aryan says to me, “You know where to find me.”
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. Aryan said to me, “You know where to find me.”
Following steps should be followed to convert the given sentence into its direct form:
Identify the reporting verb and its tense. In this case, the reporting verb is "told" and it is in the past tense.
Identify the subject and object of the reporting verb. In this case, the subject is "Aryan" and the object is "me."
Identify the conjunction used to introduce the reported speech. In this case, the conjunction is "that."
Change the tense of the reporting verb from past tense to present tense and place it before the reported speech.
This step is not necessary if the reported speech is already in the present tense.
Change the pronouns and possessive adjectives in the reported speech to reflect the subject and object of the
reporting verb in the direct form.
Remove the conjunction "that" and put the reported speech in quotation marks.
Make any necessary changes to the tense, punctuation, and word order to make the sentence grammatically correct
in the direct form.
Thus, the direct form would be:
Page No: 72
Aryan said to me, "You know where to find me."

Options :
1. children’s little pockets, forget all on it
2. once you put the money in your
3. by making mistakes. So, dear parents,
4. He will make mistakes, but he will learn
Solution :
Page No: 73
The correct answer isOption 1 i.e. children’s little pockets, forget all on it.
The last part of the given sentence is erroneous in nature.

The phrase "forget all on it" is not grammatically correct because the verb "forget" requires the preposition "about" to
indicate the thing that is being forgotten.
The error in the segment is the preposition "on" that should be replaced by the preposition "about."
Therefore, the corrected sentence is:
He will make mistakes, but he will learn by making mistakes. So, dear parents, once you put the money in your children's
little pockets, forget all about it.

Comprehension :
Question 98 :
Options :
1. everyone
2. men
3. universal
4. politicians
Solution :
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. men.
The sentence is talking about the efforts made by women and their supporters to gain equal rights as someone or a
group of people.
The use of "universal" or "everyone" in the blank would not make sense in the context of the sentence, and the
inclusion of "politicians" would not fit the comparison between the two groups.
The word "men" is the most appropriate choice as it completes the comparison between women and men, who
Page No: 75
historically and culturally have had unequal rights and opportunities in many societies.
The correct option to fill in the blank is "men."
The completed sentence reads:
Women and their supporters have fought, and in some places continue to fight for the same rights as men.
