Eight persons - I, J, K, L, M, N, O and P are living
on four different floors of a four storey building
where the lowermost floor is numbered one and
the floor immediately above it is numbered two
and so on.
Note-I: Each floor has two type of flats viz., Flat-
A and Flat-B, where Flat A is to the west of Flat
B.
Note-II: Flat B of floor 2 is immediately above
Flat B of floor 1 and immediately below Flat B of
floor 3 and so on. Similarly, Flat A of Floor 2 is
immediately above Flat A of floor 1 and
immediately below Flat A of floor 3 and so on.
Note-III: Area of each flat on each floor is equal.
Note-IV: Only two persons live on each floor and
only one person lives in each flat.
Note V: Each person has different number of
shoes with them, which is a two digit number. No
one has more than 50 shoes.

the flat of N, who lives on an odd numbered floor,
has 8 shoes less than L. The number of floors
below N is one less than the number of floors
above I, who has the number of shoes which is a
multiple of seven. Only one floor is between I and
the one who has 17 shoes less than P, and both
are living in the same type of flat. M, who has a
prime number of shoes, lives two floors above
the flat of L. Both M and P neither live on the
same floor nor in the same type of flat. Only one

Number of 4G mobile phones manufactured by 3) Answer: B

company A in the month of June is 1200 * 5/8 = Required difference = [(450 + 400 + 1000 + 800
750 + 800 + 600) - (800 + 300 + 400 + 500 + 1000 +
Number of 5G mobile phones manufactured by 600)] = 450
company A in the month of June is 1200 - 750 =
450 4) Answer: A
Number of 4G mobile phones manufactured by Total cost of company C = 900 * 4800 + 1400 *
company A in the month of July is 2000 * 3/5 = 5800 = 12440000
1200 Total cost of company D = 2100 * 6400 + 1300 *
Number of 5G mobile phones manufactured by 7000 = 22540000
company A in the month of July is 2000 - 1200 = So, difference = 22540000 – 12440000 =
800 10100000 = 10100 thousands
Similarly, we can calculate the others value also.
5) Answer: A
Total defective mobile
= 1800 * 20/100 + 2500 * 10/100 + 1500 *
10/100 + 1100 * 10/100

6) Answer: A
According to question,
Total quantity of solution I = 720ml
Quantity of sugar: water in the mixture = 7:2
Sugar content in solution I = 560ml
1) Answer: C
Water content in solution I = 160ml
Total number of 64GB memory 4G phone
Total quantity of solution II = 800ml
manufactured by company A in the month June
Quantity of sugar: water in the mixture = 1:7
and July together = 750 * 60/100 + 1200 *
Sugar content in solution II = 100ml
40/100 = 930
Water content in solution II = 700ml
After combining the solutions,
2) Answer: D
Total sugar content = 660ml
Required difference = [600 * 3/5 + 200 * 1/5] -
Total water content = 860ml
[600 * 2/5 + 200 * 4/5] = 0

Sugar added = 20% x sugar content in the first Certain distance is covered by a boat in
solution initially downstream in 9 hours and in upstream in 11
So, 112ml sugar is added hours
32ml water is added Downstream speed of boat = D/9 kmph
Thus, final sugar content = 660 – 132 + 112 = Upstream speed of boat = D/11 kmph
640ml Distance covered in 27 hours rowing
Final water content = 860 – 172 + 32 = 720ml downstream = D/9 x 27 = 3D km
Required difference = 720 - 640= 80 more Distance covered in 55 hours rowing upstream =

Total profit after 3 years = Rs. 7650 After 6 years, [1/2 x (Rohit + wife + daughter +
So, total time period= 3 years 18) = 41 years]
Ratio of profit shares = [(6x * 1) + (125% * 6x * 1/2 x (R + W + D + 18) = 41

1)] = 21:36:28 R + W + D = 64 ……………….. (1)
Profit amount received by B = Rs. 36/85 x 7650 After 8 years the age of his daughter = 1/2 x

Hence, answer is option C D + 8 = 1/2 x W
W – 2D = 16 ……………….. (2)
8) Answer: B Rohit’s age after 18 years =Rohit’s wife’s age 10
Let the distance covered = ‘D’ km years later
Let the speed of boat = ‘B’ kmph R + 18 = W + 10

D = 8 years Number of girls studying UG in college E =
Rohit’s daughter age after 3 years = 11 years Number of boys in UG in college B = 24% of 800
Hence, answer is option A = 192
Number of boys studying UG in college E = 192
10) Answer: A * (5/6) = 160
Number of boys studying UG in college B = 24% Number of boys studying PG in college E = 30%
of 800 = 192 of 500 = 150
So, number of girls studying UG in college B = (2 Number of girls studying PG in college E = (2 *

Number of girls studying PG in college B = 144 – Required difference = (192 + 120) – (160 + 150)
56 = 88 =2
And number of boys studying PG in college B =
(2 * 74) – 88 = 60 13) Answer: B
Number of boys studying PG in college A = 18% Number of boys studying PG in college A = 18%
of 500 = 90 of 500 = 90
Number of boys studying PG in college E = 30% Number of girls studying PG in college A = (2 *
of 500 = 150 105) – 90 = 120
Required average = (60 + 90 + 150)/3 = 100 Number of girls studying PG in college C = (2 *
115) – 120 = 110
11) Answer: C Number of boys studying PG in college C = 26%
Number of boys studying UG in college D = 31% of 500 = 130
of 800 = 248 Total number of students studying PG in college
So, number of boys studying UG in college C = C = 130 + 110 = 240
248 – 168 = 80 Since, average of boys and girls studying UG in
Number of girls studying UG in college C = (2 * college C = 96
96) – 80 = 112 So, total number of students studying UG in
And number of girls studying UG in college A = college C = 2 * 96 = 192
112 * (300/350) = 96 Required ratio = 192: 240 = 4: 5
Since, number of boys studying UG in college A
= 15% of 800 = 120 Directions (14-17):
So, required average = (120 + 96)/2 = 108
