(1) b. D > A

Step 1
It is given that A is greater than B, and B is greater than C.
Therefore, we can infer that A too is greater than C.

Step 2
Now we know that A is greater than C, and it is given that C is greater than D.
Therefore, we can infer that A too is greater than D.

Step 3
Since A > D, the statement D > A is definitely wrong.

(2) b.

Step 1
Here, we need to identify the figure that will complete the problem figure, the problem figure and the
correct option will combine to form a complete square.

Step 2
The figure in option (b) is the only figure that combines with the problem figure and completes the
square.

Hence, is the correct answer and is the combined figure.

(3) b.

Step 1
According to the question, Altaf left for office after 7 o'clock but before quarter past 7. This means he left
for office somewhere between 7:00 and 7:15.

Step 2
The only option that shows the time between 7:00 and 7:15 is option b.

Step 3
Hence, option b is the correct answer.

(4) c. C

Step 1
If we look at the regular polygon carefully, we notice that there are 6 sides of a regular polygon.
1
Therefore, the length of a side of the regular polygon =
6

Step 2
14
Since, the distance walked by the cat on the periphery, in the clockwise direction =
30
Therefore, the number of sides walked by the cat on the regular polygon =
Distance walked by the cat
Length of a side of the polygon

14
30
=

= 2.8
It means that the cat walked on 2 sides of the regular polygon and the cat is walking on the 3rd side of
the regular polygon, in the clockwise direction.

Step 3
14
Since, it started from point s, the cat will be on the side C, after walking distance on the periphery
30
in the clockwise direction.

Step 4
Hence, option c is the correct answer.

(5) d. R, N

Step 1
The given series can be written as a combination of two distinct series:
V, _, U, _, T, _, S, _,
_, V, _, T, _, R, _, P,

Step 2
The first series is occupying the odd places and the second series is occupying even places in the
series.

Step 3
Also, the numeral position of the first series is decreasing by a count of 1, and that of the members of
the second series is decreasing by a count of 2.

Step 4
The next member is going to be from the first series, which will be R, and the member after R will be
from the second series which will be N.

Step 5
Hence, option d is the correct answer.

(6) d. an acute angle

Step 1
Let us represent 1 o'clock on the clock.

Step 2
We know that an angle at any point is 360°.

As the numbers 1 to 12 divide the clock into 12 equal parts, the angle formed by the hour hand and the
360°
minute hand lying at any two consecutive numbers = = 30°.
12

Step 3
When the time is 1 o'clock, the hour hand is at 1 and the minute hand is at 12.

We see that there are 1 division between 1 and 12 on the clock.

Thus, the angle formed between the two hands = 1 × 30° = 30°

Step 4
Also, we know that an angle with measure 30° is an acute angle.

So, the angle formed between the hands of a clock when it strikes 1 o'clock is an acute angle.

(7) a. 10226

Pattern - Multiply the number by 3 and add successive prime number starting with 3 : 3403 * 3 + 17 =
10226

(8) 3 30 PM

Step 1
Saima started at 12:45 PM, or 12:45 hours from her home town, and will reach after 2 hours and 45
minutes or 02:45 hours.

Step 2
She will reach at 12:45 + 02:45 = 15:30 hours or 3:30 PM.

(9) 728

Step 1
We are given:
Length of container = 72cm
Breadth of container = 35cm
Height of container = 78cm
∴ Volume of container = Length × Breadth × Height = 72cm × 35cm × 78cm
Step 2
Also,
Length of box = 9cm
Breadth of box = 5cm
Height of box = 6cm
∴ Volume of box = Length × Breadth × Height = 9cm × 5cm × 6cm
Step 3
Number of boxes that can be packed into the container
Volume of container 72cm × 35cm × 78cm
= = = 728
Volume of box 9cm × 5cm × 6cm

16
(10)
56

Step 1
We know that equivalent fractions are obtained by multiplying or dividing the numerator and
denominator of a fraction by the same number.

2 16
It is given that = .
7 ?
Step 2
To get 16 as the numerator, we will have to multiply 2 by 8.

Thus, multiplying the denominator by the same number, i.e. 8.

2 2×8 16
∴ = =
7 7×8 56

Step 3
2 16
Thus, the equivalent fraction of with numerator 16 is .
