LRDI PRACTICE SETS BY RAVI PRAKASH FOR CAT 2022 – Set 1 (by Ravi Prakash)
My friend, Govind, sent me an e-mail which had the details of the marks that he scored in four subjects. Instead of sending
the marks he scored in each subject separately, he said that he added the marks in two subjects at a time and was sending
the six unequal totals so obtained. These totals were given in ascending order in the file that he sent as an attachment with
the e-mail. When I opened the e-mail attachment, I found that the first, third and fourth figures appeared as junk
characters due to some corruption in the file and I could read only the remaining three figures - 169, 178 and 180. I sent a
mail back to Govind that I needed some more data to calculate his marks in each subject.
He replied as follows:
1) “Instead of using my marks in the e-mail, if I had used the marks that my friend Aniket scored (in the same four
subjects), you would still have got the same figures for the three totals that you were able to read in the e-mail", that
scored by Aniket.
2) "The highest mark that I scored among the four subjects is more than that scored by Aniket.”
3) "There is no multiple of 5 among Aniket 's marks whereas there is one among mine.'
Note: Assume that all the marks are integers.
Q.1) What is the highest marks scored by Govind?
Q.2) What is the highest marks scored by Aniket?
Q.3) What is the 2nd highest marks scored by Govind ?
Q.4) What is the 2ND lowest marks scored by Aniket?

A bank employs a machine that generates random passwords for transactions. The password consists of 5 characters. The
characters are chosen following a set of rules.
The password should contain exactly 2 alphabets and 3 numbers.
The last 2 characters of the password should contain at least one number.
The first 2 characters of the password should contain at least one alphabet.
The alphabets chosen should be vowels and the numbers chosen should be single digit natural numbers.
No 2 characters in the password can be the same.
The password is not case sensitive i.e., 'a' and 'A' are treated as the same.
Q.1) How many unique passwords can the machine generate?
Q.2) If the bank wants the sum of the numbers in the password to be 9 and wants to exclude E from the password, then the
number of passwords that the machine can generate satisfying these conditions is ?
Q.3) The bank wants to provide its customers some freedom and hence, allows them to access the account using a different
password as long as the alphabets used are the same, the sum of the digits is the same and no 2 characters in the password are the
same. Balu, a customer, finds out that he can enter X different passwords and still satisfy the condition. The maximum possible
value of X is ?
Q.4) The bank, in order to improve the number of passwords that can be generated, has decided to use consonants instead of
vowels and make the password case sensitive. If the bank wants to keep the sum of the numbers in the password less than 10,
then the number of passwords that the machine can generate satisfying these conditions is ?
