Question : Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given with a blank that is to be filled in with an appropriate word. Four alternatives are suggested; choose the correct alternative out of them as your answer.

I bought a new TV last month, but I _____ my old TV yet, so at present I have two TVs.

Option 1: has not sell

Option 2: have not sold

Option 3: have sold

Option 4: am selling

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: have not sold


Solution : The second option is the correct choice.

Explanation: Have not sold uses the present perfect tense to indicate that the action of selling the old TV has not been completed up to the present moment. The sentence is in the past tense, and it discusses an action related to selling the old TV.

The option has not sell is grammatically incorrect; have sold doesn't use negation as per context, and am selling doesn't match the tense of the sentence as per parallelism.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "I bought a new TV last month, but I have not sold my old TV yet, so at present I have two TVs."

Question : Find out the wrong number in the series: 190, 166, 145, 128, 112, 100, 91

Option 1: 100

Option 2: 166

Option 3: 145

Option 4: 128

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 128


Solution : Given: Sequence is 190, 166, 145, 128, 112, 100, 91.
Calculating the first difference,
190 – 166, 166 – 145, 145 – 128, 128 – 112, 112 – 100, 100 – 91
= 24, 21, 17, 16, 12, 9
All the first differences are divisible by 3 except 17 and 16.
$\therefore$ 128 is the common number that is causing this difference.
Hence, the correct answer is 128.

Question : Directions: In the following question you have to identify the correct response from the given premises stated according to the following symbol.
You have to follow the symbolic interpretation to solve the problem

+ = greater than
– = not less than
| = less than
\phi = not greater than
× = equal to 
\angle= not equal to

if  x \angle y+z, which of the following is implied?

Option 1: x\times y|z

Option 2: x-y\times z

Option 3: x\angle y\phi z

Option 4: x-y\angle z

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: x-y\angle z


Solution : Given:
+ = greater than (>)
– = not less than  (≮ )
| = less than (<)
\phi = not greater than (≯ )
× = equal to (=)
\angle= not equal to (≠) 
x \angle y+z
After replacing the given symbols the equation becomes –
x ≠ y > z

Let's check each option –
First option: x\times y|z
x = y < z (Here, x = y and y < z so, this is not correct)
Second option: x-y\times z
x ≮ y = z (Here, y = z so, this is not correct)
Third option: x\angle y\phi z
x ≠ y ≯ z (Here, y ≯ z so, this is not correct)
Fourth option: x-y\angle z
x ≮ y ≠ z

Option 3: Mouse

Option 4: External storage device

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Printer


Solution : The correct option is Printer.

A printer is the most common user of a parallel port. In the past, parallel ports, also known as Centronics ports, were widely used to connect printers and other peripheral devices to computers. They enabled the simultaneous transmission of many bits of data, making them ideal for applications like printers that required high data transfer rates.

Question : Directions: In a certain code language, HIGHLY is written as GRHYOH, and CLEVER is written as EOCRVV. How will HORROR be written in that language?

Option 1: JRLPDB

Option 2: RLHRLR

Option 3: JPRDER

Option 4: RKJPED

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: RLHRLR


Solution : Given: 
HIGHLY is written as GRHYOH, and CLEVER is written as EOCRVV. 

Change the position of letters and write opposite letters of the second and fifth letter of HIGHLY, to obtain the required code –

Thus, HIGHLY is written as GRHYOH.
And in, CLEVER is written as EOCRVV –


Thus, CLEVER is written as EOCRVV.
Similarly, by following the same pattern for HORROR –

Thus, HORROR is written as RLHRLR in the code language. Hence, the second option is correct.
