S1. Answer is D
From the above table, out of the students that originally had Pen, the number of students now having Scale is
‘12 – x’. Maximum possible value of x is 11. Therefore minimum possible value of 12 – x = 12 – 11= 1
S2. Answer is C
From the above table, out of the students that originally had Pen, the number of students now having Scale is
8 = (12-x) 8 = 12 –x = > x = 4 Out of the students that originally had Pen, the number of students now having
Eraser is 4
S3. Answer is B
Among the students that originally had Note, the number of students now having Scale is a Among the
students that originally had Note, the number of students now having Eraser is b
From the above table, among the students that originally had Note, the total number of students now having
Eraser and Scale is (68 - 35) = 33 = (a + b) --- (1) = > (b - a) = 1 ---- (2) Solve the above equation (1) and (2), we
get = > a = 34/2 = 17 = > b = 16 Required difference = 20 – 17 = 3
S4. Answer is A
Among the students that originally had Sharpener, the number of students now having Eraser is 18 Among the
students that originally had Sharpener, the number of students now having Pen be (18/2) = 9 Among the
students that originally had Sharpener, the number of students now having Scale = 9 + 1 = 10
S5. Answer is B
From the above table, Among the students that originally had Pencil, the number of students now having Note
= among the students that originally had Pencil, the number of students now having Scale = 7
Among the students that originally had Pencil, the number of students now having Pen = 38 – (3+7+9+7) = 38 –

S7. Answer is D
For Scheme B: Amount invested = 30% of 80000 = Rs.24000 Interest earned through simple interest
= p*r*t/100 = 24000*4*20/100 = Rs.19200
Interest earned through Compound Interest= p*(1+r/100)t – p = 24000*(1+15/100)2 - 24000 =
Rs.31740 - 24000 = Rs.7740
Difference of interest = 19200 - 7740 = Rs.11460

For Scheme E: Amount invested = 13% of 80000 = 10400
Interest earned through simple interest=p*r*t/100 =10400*11*4/100 =Rs.4576
Interest earned through Compound Interest= p*(1+r/100)t - p =10400* (1+ 9/100)2 – 10400 =

S8. Answer is A
Let the amount invested by Lalita is 5X Let the amount invested by Babita is 3X
Amount received by Lalita = p*(1+r/100)t =5X*(1 +15/100)3 =5X*115/100*115/100*115/100 = 7.60
X
Amount received by Babita =p*(1+r/100)t =3X*(1 +5/100)4
=3X*105/100*105/100*105/100*105/100 =3.64X
Required percentage= 7.60X/3.64X * 100 = 208.79% = 209%
S9. Answer is B
S10. Answer is A
Amount invested in scheme B is highest at the same time Rate of interest in scheme B is highest
compare than other schemes.
Amount invested=10000*30% = Rs.3000
Interest earned through simple interest=p*r*t/100 =3000*20*4/100 = 2400
Quantity I = 2400
Quantity II: Amount invested=10000*15% = Rs.1500 Interest earned through compound interest=
p*(1+r/100)t =1500*(1+18/100)2 =1500*118/100*118/100 =Rs.2088

Sol. Students let us understand the Logic behind this Question and let’s understand how to solve it.
As a first step lets first understand the logic behind the Output. If you will see the final output, you
will observe the following:
(i)- In each step only one word and one number are getting arranged. The words are arranged
according to the number of letters present in words in descending order from right end to left end
and words which contain same number of letters will be arranged in alphabetical order from right
end to left end.
(ii)- Both odd and even number are getting arranged in every alternative step, such as in I-step the
highest odd number is getting arranged then in step-II the lowest even number is arranged and so
on.

Sol. I is strong because it fosters sportsman spirit. II is a weak argument because the weakness of a
team is known not only to its former players.
S13. Ans B
Sol. For I-Although statement I is an environmental fact but assumption, I is not implicit on the basis
of the given statement. Because the given statement is concerned with soil pollution whereas I
assumption is concerned with air pollution which is quite deep and not directly related to the given
statement.
For II: But assumption II is implicit as it explains about the benefits of burring leaves over burning it.

S44. Ans D
Since the given statement talks of an order not to let the officers read newspapers during office
Page | 18
hours, it implies that reading newspapers during office hours is undesirable. So, I does not follow.
Also, the order has been issued with an intention to prevent harm to office work due to officers'
other indulgences. Thus, II also does not follow.
S45. Ans C
The problem discussed in the statement is not regarding the current accident, but to do something
to avert such mishaps. Accidents at railway crossings can be averted by deploying men to regulate
traffic and installing barriers to check traffic movement when a train passes by. So, only III follows.

IBPS PO PAPER
S22. Ans. (b)
Sol. The answer to the question can be derived from the second and fourth paragraph.
From the first sentence of the second paragraph ‘… that suffered depredations under Communist
Party Chairman Mao Zedong, has left India so far behind…’.
Clearly, according to the author, Mao Zedong was not the reason for China’s growth.
The last two sentences of the second paragraph ‘…” We’re democracy, China is not.” There is more Page | 22
to that country’s spectacular rise than just that one factor…’ The phrase ‘there is more to that’
affirms that not having democracy is indeed one of the reasons/factors behind China’s growth.
The first sentence of the fourth paragraph is ‘Since science and technology are powering China’s
growth…’.
So, ‘Science and Technology’ is one of the reasons considered by the author as a reason for the
growth of China.
Hence, option (b) is the correct answer.
