AEFJ : KOPT :: ? : QUVZ

Option 1: HKQL

Option 2: GLKP

Option 3: GKLP

Option 4: HLKP

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: GKLP


Solution : Given:

AEFJ : KOPT :: ? : QUVZ

A + 4 = E; E + 1 = F; F + 4 = J.

K + 4 = O; O + 1 = P; P + 4 = T.

Similarly,

G + 4 = K; K + 1 = L; L + 4 = P.

Q + 4 = U; U + 1 = V; V + 4 = Z.

The answer is AEFJ : KOPT :: GKLP : QUVZ.

Hence, third option is correct.

Question : During the reign of Akbar, ________ was the land that has lain fallow for three or four years.

Option 1: parauti

Option 2: polaj

Option 3: chachar

Option 4: banjar

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: chachar


Solution : The correct option is chachar.

During the reign of Akbar, the land that had lain fallow for three or four years was known as "chachar".

This practice was part of Akbar's agrarian reforms, aimed at increasing agricultural productivity and revenue collection in the Mughal Empire.

Question : Directions: In a certain code language, BENT is coded as 3198 and DEBT is coded as 8316. What is the code for N in the given code language?

Option 1: 1

Option 2: 9

Option 3: 3

Option 4: 8

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 9


Solution : Given:
BENT is coded as 3198, and DEBT is coded as 8316.

Compare both the given words, BENT, and DEBT. In both the words, (B, E, T) are the common letters, and in their codes (1, 3, 8) are the common digits.
So, in the word BENT, N is the remaining letter and in its code 9 is the remaining digit.
Similarly, in the word DEBT, D is the remaining letter and in its code 6 is the remaining digit.

So, N is coded as 9. Hence, the second option is correct.

Question : A person can hit a target 5 times out of 8 shots. If he fires 10 shots, what is the probability that he will hit the target twice?

Option 1: $\frac{1135 \times 3^8}{8^{10}}$

Option 2: $\frac{1165 \times 3^8}{8^{10}}$

Option 3: $\frac{1175 \times 3^8}{8^{10}}$

Option 4: $\frac{1125 \times 3^8}{8^{10}}$

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{1125 \times 3^8}{8^{10}}$


Solution : Probability of hitting = $\frac{5}{8}$
Probability of losing = $\frac{3}{8}$
Probability of hitting twice when 10 shots are fired
= 10C2$(\frac{5}{8})^2(\frac{3}{8})^8$
= $\frac{10×9×5×5}{1×2}$× $\frac{ 3^8}{8^{10}}$
= $\frac{1125 ×3^8}{8^{10}}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{1125 ×3^8}{8^{10}}$.

Question : Given below are four sentences in jumbled order. Pick the option that gives their correct order.

A. He took great care of his subjects and made sure they lived in happiness.
B. Sometimes he himself went amongst the people in disguise to see and learn about their actual state.
C. He sent spies into the kingdom to report to him about the condition of his people.
D. A just and loving king once ruled over a large kingdom.

Option 2: DBCA

Option 3: DACB

Option 4: BDAC

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: DACB


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The paragraph starts with sentence D, which provides the initial context, introducing the king and the setting, followed by sentence A, which adds information about the king's behaviour and rule, emphasising his care for his subjects and their happiness, followed by sentence C, which introduces an action taken by the king that is sending spies into the kingdom to gather information about the condition of his people, and lastly, sentence B, which adds another action taken by the king that is going amongst the people in disguise to personally observe and learn about their actual state.

Question : Directions: In the following question below are given some statements followed by some conclusions based on those statements. Taking the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. Read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows the given statements.
Statements:
Some P is K.
No K is T.
Conclusions:
I. All P is T.
II. All T is K.
III. Some P is not T.

Option 1: Only conclusion II follows

Option 2: Only conclusion III follows

Option 3: All conclusions follow

Option 4: Both conclusions II and III follow

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Only conclusion III follows


Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –

Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion (I): All P is T – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that there is no direct relation between P and T. So, no definite relation can be drawn. Therefore, this conclusion does not follow.
Conclusion (II): All T are K – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that there is a negative relation between T and K. So, this conclusion does not follow.
Conclusion (III): Some P are not T – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing P and K overlap and have a part of their area in common. So, it can be concluded that some P that are K are not T.

So, the only conclusion III follows. Hence, the second option is correct.

Question : If $ \frac{(5x\:-\:y)}{(5x\:+\:y)}=\frac{3}{7},$ what is the value of $\frac{(4x^{2}\:+\:y^{2}\:–\:4xy)}{(9x^{2}\:+\:16y^{2}\:+\:24xy)}$?

Option 1: $0$

Option 2: $\frac{3}{7}$

Option 3: $\frac{18}{49}$

Option 4: $\frac{1}{6}$

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $0$


Solution : Given: $\frac{(5x\:-\:y)}{(5x\:+\:y)}=\frac{3}{7}$
$⇒35x-7y=15x+3y$
$⇒20x-10y=0$
$⇒2x-y=0$---------------(i)
$\frac{(4x^{2}\:+\:y^{2}\:-\:4xy)}{(9x^{2}\:+\:16y^{2}\:+\:24xy)}$
= $\frac{(2x\:-\:y)^{2}}{(9x^{2}\:+\:16y^{2}\:+\:24xy)}$
Since from equation (i), we know $2x-y=0$, substituting the value in the above equation, we get,
$=\frac{0}{(9x^{2}\:+\:16y^{2}\:+\:24xy)}=$ 0
Hence, the correct answer is $0$.

Question : The ordinary and maximum tolerance limit of sound by human being is:

Option 1: 50 dB to 70 dB  (decibel)

Option 2: 60 dB to 80 dB  (decibel)

Option 3: 65 dB to 75 dB  (decibel)

Option 4: 70 dB to 85 dB (decibel)

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 60 dB to 80 dB  (decibel)


Solution : The correct option is 60 dB to 80 dB  (decibel).

A human's normal sound tolerance level is between 60 and 80 decibels (dB). Sounds exceeding 80 dB are potentially dangerous and can cause hearing damage or pain, especially if exposed for an extended period of time. In loud surroundings, protective measures such as earplugs or earmuffs are suggested to avoid hearing impairment.
