Correct Answer: dishonesty

Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Explanation: Dishonesty is the opposite of decent, as it refers to a lack of honesty or integrity.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

• Ethical refers to principles of right and wrong conduct, not directly opposite to "decent" but related.
• Downfall refers to a loss of power, status, or success, not an antonym of "decent".
• True refers to being in accordance with fact or reality, not an antonym of "decent".

Correct Answer: 92

Solution : Given:
17, 22, 32, 47, 67, X

Add the consecutive multiples of 5 to each number to obtain the next number of the series –
17 + (5 × 1) = 17 + 5 = 22;
22 + (5 × 2) = 22 + 10 = 32;
32 + (5 × 3) = 32 + 15 = 47;
47 + (5 × 4) = 47 + 20 = 67;
67 + (5 × 5) = 67 + 25 = 92

So, 92 is the missing number of the series. Hence, the third option is correct.

Correct Answer: 200%

Solution : Laptops sold by Wholesaler 1 and Wholesaler 2 on Thursday = 24 + 18 = 42
Laptops sold by Wholesaler 3 on Friday = 21
Required percentage $= \frac{42}{21}\times 100=200$%
Hence, the correct answer is 200%.

Correct Answer: Only A

Solution : The correct option is Only A.

"Higher inflation means lower real GDP, ceteris paribus" is generally true. Ceteris paribus means holding other factors constant. When there's higher inflation (a general increase in prices), it can decrease the real GDP, as it erodes the purchasing power of money, reduces consumer spending, and can lead to resource allocation.

Correct Answer: Only conclusion (II) follows

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

Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion I: No books are keys – From the above diagram, it can be seen that there is no direct relation between books and keys. So, this conclusion does not follow.
Conclusion II: Some papers are keys – From the above diagram, we can see that the circle of papers and keys intersect and have some common area between them. So, this conclusion follows.

So, only conclusion II follows. Hence, the third option is correct.

Correct Answer: Why are you eating the rotten apple?

Solution : The correct answer is the fourth option.

Explanation: In English, when transforming a sentence from passive to active voice, it is crucial to switch the positions of the subject and the object and use the appropriate active verb form. Active voice is the voice in which the subject is the doer

Here, the correct structure in the case of the interrogative present continuous tense is; "Interrogative word + are + subject+ v1+ing + object?"

So, the correct sentence would be: "Why are you eating the rotten apple?"

Correct Answer: R

Solution : Given:
A, C, F, K, ?

In the given series, add consecutive prime numbers to the place value of the letters –
A + 2 = C; C + 3 = F; F + 5 = K; K + 7 = R

So, the missing term is R. Hence, the third option is correct.

Correct Answer: Mahatma Gandhi               

Solution : Given:
Dadabhai Naoroji, Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Lala Lajpat Rai, ?

The order of age of the given freedom fighters is as follows –
Dadabhai Naoroji (04.09.1825) > Bal Gangadhar Tilak (23.07.1856) > Lala Lajpat Rai (28.01.1865)
Let's check the given options –
First option: Mahatma Gandhi→(02.10.1869)
Second option: Jawaharlal Nehru→(14.11.1889)
Third option: Subhash Chandra Bose→(23.01.1897)
Fourth option: Bhagat Singh→(28.09.1907)

So, Mahatma Gandhi is the missing term of the given series. Hence, the first option is correct.
