Solutions
(1) b. Chocolate cookie

Step 1
The raspberry cookie is less expensive than the oatmeal cookie.
Less More
Raspberry Oatmeal

Step 2
The raspberry cookie is more expensive than the chocolate cookie.
Less More
Chocolate Raspberry Oatmeal

Step 3
Hence, the chocolate cookie is the least expensive cookie.

(2) a. Father

Step 1
Matthew's mother-in-law = Matthew's wife's mother

Step 2
The only daughter of Matthew's mother-in-law = Matthew's wife's mother's only daughter =
Matthew's wife

Step 3
The daughter of only daughter of Matthew's mother-in-law = Matthew's wife's daughter =
Matthew's daughter

Step 4
Therefore, Matthew is the father of the girl singing on stage.

Step 5
Hence, option a is the correct answer.

(3) b. 2

Step 1

A+B
Since, A ♣ B means , the value of (1 ♣ 1) ♣ 3:
2
1+1
⇒ (1 ♣ 1) ♣ 3 = ( )♣3
2
2
⇒ (1 ♣ 1) ♣ 3 = ( )♣3
2
⇒ (1 ♣ 1) ♣ 3 = 1 ♣ 3

Step 2
A+B
Again use, A ♣ B =
2
1+3
⇒ (1 ♣ 1) ♣ 3 =
2
4
⇒ (1 ♣ 1) ♣ 3 =
2
Therefore, (1 ♣ 1) ♣ 3 = 2

Step 3
Hence, option b is the correct answer.

(4) b.

Step 1
The figure given in the problem has four equal partitions out of which one is missing.
The 4 parts of the problem figure can be shown as -

1 2
3 4

It can be observed that part 1, 2, and 3 are identical to one another.

Step 2
According to this observation, we can infer that all the 4 parts in the problem figure should be
identical and figure in option (b) is identical to part 1, 2, and 3 of the problem figure.

Hence, is the correct answer.

(5) 15

Step 1
If Ram and Sonia start from the black dot shown in the picture and A and B are their new
positions respectively as shown in the following picture.

A
7

Step 2
From the picture, the distance between A and B = 8 + 7 = 15 km.
Hence, the distance between Ram and Sonia now is 15 km.

(6) 18 feet

Step 1
To measure a length using a rod, the length to be measured should be a multiple of the length
of the rod.

Step 2
So, a length that can be measured using either of the rods must be a multiple of the lengths
(common multiple) of both the rods.

Step 3
Since we need to find the smallest such length, we are looking for the least common multiple
(LCM) of the lengths of the two rods.

Step 4
To find the LCM of 9 and 6 we will use the division method.
2 | 9, 6
3 | 9, 3
3 | 3, 1
| 1, 1

The LCM is = 2 × 3 × 3 = 18

Step 5
The smallest length that can be measured using either of the rods is 18 feet.

(7) 15 km

Step 1
If Ramakrishnan starts from the black dot shown in the picture, his path will be as follows,

Step 2
It is clear from this path that he will be at a distance of 15 km from the starting point.

(8) Building3

Step 1
Building2 is not shorter than the Building1 that means the Building2 is taller than the
Building1.
Shorter Taller
Building1 Building2

Step 2
Building1 is taller than the Building3.
Shorter Taller
Building3 Building1 Building2

Step 3
Hence, the Building3 is the shortest building.

(9) 55

Step 1
We know that + + = 60
Which means 3 = 60
60
Therefore, the value of = = 20
3

Step 2
The question also says that + = 25
Substituting the value of in the above equation.
We have 20 + = 25
or, = 25 - 20
or, =5

Step 3
We need to find the value of + + + + .
Substituting the value of and in the above equation.
We have + + + + = 20 + 20 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 55

(10) 11:00 AM to 01:00 PM

Step 1
According to the question:
Number of employees who work from 09:00 AM to 11:00 AM = 8
Number of employees who work from 10:00 AM to 01:00 PM = 14
Number of employees who work from 11:00 AM to 01:00 PM = 10

Step 2
Total number of employees who work from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM = 8 + 14 = 22
Total number of employees who work from 11:00 AM to 01:00 PM = 14 + 10 = 24

Step 3
Computers are likely to be used the most at the time when maximum number of employees
work. Maximum number of employees work from 11:00 AM to 01:00 PM. Hence, the
computers are likely to be used the most from 11:00 AM to 01:00 PM.
