Question : Directions: After interchanging the given two numbers (not digits) what will be the values of expression (I) and (II) respectively?
6 and 4
l. 10 × 6 – 30 ÷ 4 + 20
II. 8 – 4 × 5 + 6 ÷ 2

Option 1: 12 and –6

Option 2: 20 and 55

Option 3: 55 and –20

Option 4: 10 and –6

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 55 and –20


Solution : Given:
l. 10 × 6 – 30 ÷ 4 + 20
II. 8 – 4 × 5 + 6 ÷ 2

Let's solve each equation after interchanging the numbers according to the instructions.
On interchanging the numbers 6 and 4 in the first equation, we get –
= 10 × 4 – 30 ÷ 6 + 20
= 10 × 4 – 5 + 20
= 40 – 5 + 20
= 55
On interchanging the numbers 6 and 4 in the second equation, we get –
= 8 – 6 × 5 + 4 ÷ 2
= 8 – 6 × 5 + 2
= 8 – 30 + 2
= –20

Therefore, after solving the given equations the required answer is 55 and –20. Hence, the third option is correct.

Question : In $\triangle$PQR, the angle bisector of $\angle$P intersects QR at M. If PQ = PR, then what is the value of $\angle$PMQ?

Option 1: 75°

Option 2: 80°

Option 3: 70°

Option 4: 90°

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 90°


Solution :
In $\triangle$PQR, PQ = PR
⇒ $\angle$Q = $\angle$R = b
PM is the angle bisector of $\angle$P.
$\angle$QPM = $\angle$RPM = a
Apply angle sum property in $\triangle$PQR,
⇒ $\angle$P + $\angle$Q + $\angle$R = 180°
⇒ $\angle$P + b + b = 180°
⇒ $\angle$P = 180° – 2b
$\angle$QPM = $\frac{180° – 2b}{2}$ = 90° – b
In $\triangle$PQM,
Let $\angle$PMQ = $\theta$
⇒ $\angle$QPM + $\angle$Q + $\angle$M = 180°
⇒ 90° – b + b + $\theta$ = 180°
⇒ $\theta$ = 90°
Hence, the correct answer is 90°.

Question : A class is divided into two sections, with 20 students in one section and 30 students in the other. The pass percentages for these sections are 80% and 60%, respectively. What is the pass percentage for the entire class?

Option 1: 60%

Option 2: 68%

Option 3: 70%

Option 4: 78%

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 68%


Solution : The number of students who passed
= 80% of 20 + 60% of 30
= $\frac{80 × 20}{100}$ + $\frac{60 × 30}{100}$
= 16 + 18
= 34
Now, the pass percentage of the entire class
= $\frac{\text{Number of students passed}}{\text{Total students}}$ × 100
= $\frac{34}{(20 + 30)}$ × 100
= 68%
Hence, the correct answer is 68%.

Question : Directions: In the following question, select the odd one from the given alternatives.

Option 1: AG

Option 2: CE

Option 3: BF

Option 4: GF

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: GF


Solution : Let's check the options –
First option: AG; A→1, G→7, A + G = 1 + 7 = 8
Second option: CE; C→3, E→5, C + E = 3 + 5 = 8
Third option: BF; B→2, F→6, B + F = 2 + 6 = 8
Fourth option: GF; G→7, F→6, G + F = 7 + 6 = 13

The fourth option does not follow the pattern of the other options. Hence, the fourth option is correct.

Question : Air is said to be saturated when -

Option 1: It contains the maximum content of water vapour.

Option 2: Its pressure is minimum.

Option 3: Its thickness is maximum.

Option 4: It blows over the barren land.

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: It contains the maximum content of water vapour.


Solution : The correct option is It contains the maximum content of water vapour.

Nitrogen makes up 78% of the gas in the air, oxygen 21%, followed by argon and carbon dioxide in trace amounts. Water vapour is present in the air in varying amounts, along with dust particles. At a specific pressure and temperature, the air is considered to be saturated when it contains the maximum amount of water vapour. It is found that the relative humidity is 100% in such a condition.
