 The one who sits opposite to E sits third
to the left of V.
 T sits third to the left of S, where both are
facing different directions.
 Neither T nor S sits adjacent to V.
From the above conditions, there are four
possibiities
Again, we have
 D sits fourth to the right of F.
 F sits second to the left of A, who faces
south.
 E and F are not immediate neighbours.
Again, we have
 U, who doesn’t sit at any of the extreme
end, sits opposite to the one who sits third
to the left of C.
 The one who sits adjacent to U sits
opposite to G, who faces south.
 U and R are facing the same direction.

 The number of persons sitting between B
and E is one less than the number of
persons sitting to the right of R.
 G doesn’t sit adjacent to F.
After applying the above conditions case-2 and
case-2a get eliminated because in row 2 more
than two persons facing the same direction sits
together.
Again, we have
 The persons sitting at the extreme ends of
each row are facing opposite direction.
 P sits third to the left of the one who sits
immediate left of Q, who face opposite
direction of E.
 S doesn’t sit to the left of P.
After applying the above conditions case-1a gets
eliminated because S sits to the left of P, hence
case-1 shows the final arrangement.

Final arrangement

We have,
 O faces the one who sits second to the
right of the one who was born on 17th.
 One person sits between O and R, who
was born two days after E.
Since, R must sit at the outer table so,
only such possible combinations are (4,
6), (2, 4) and (6, 8).
From the above conditions, there are four
possibilities
Again, we have
 G faces the one who was born on 24th
and sits immediate left of A.
 Z was born 16 days after P, who sits
immediate left of the one who is eldest
among all.
 The number of persons sitting between A
and I is one less than the number of
persons sitting between R and P, when
counted from the left of A and right of R.
 I do not sit on the same side as G, who
was not born on a prime number date.
After applying the above conditions case-2 gets
eliminated because there is no possibility to

 The one who faces the one who was born

on a perfect square number date sits third
to the right of M.
 The difference between the birth date of
M and E is a multiple of 5.
Since, R was born two days after E, thus E must
born on 4.
Now, only possible birth date of M is 9/14.
 M neither sits adjacent to E nor sits at the
inner table.
 Not more than four persons are elder than
D.
Since, possible birth date of D is either 21 or 5,
thus D must born on 5.
After applying the above conditions case-1 gets We have,

Answer Key with Explanation

1) Answer: A 2) Answer: A
Let the breadth of the rectangle=a cm Let the number of students in class A and B is 5y
And the length of the rectangle=(a+19) cm and 3y respectively.
From statement I, Statement I:
25*150+7*x=32*(x-25) No. of students in class C = 5y – 24
3750+7x=32x-800 (4x+28) – (5y+3y) = 5y – 24
x=182 cm 13y – 4x = 52
2*(a+a+19)=182 4x = 13y – 52 --------→ 1
2a=72 3y/ (4x+28) = 1/4
a=36 cm 12y = 4x+28
The length of the rectangle=36+19=55 cm 12y = 13y – 52 + 28
The breadth of the rectangle=36 cm y = 24
The area of the rectangle=55*36=1980 cm2 x = (13*24 - 52)/4
So, Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the x = 65
question. So, the statement I alone is sufficient to answer
From statement II, the question.
The volume of the cone=6930 cm3 Statement II:
1/3*22/7*r2*h=6930 Total no. of students in class C = 4x + 28 – 8y
r2*h=735 4x + 28 – 8y = 5y*80%
So, Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer 4x + 28 - 8y = 4y
the question.

than that taken to come back. Probability (at least 1 black) = 1 – probability (no
So, (960/4x) – (960/6x) = 20 black Pen)
x=4 = 1 – [10C3 / 16C3]
So, speed of boat in still water = 5 * 4 = 20 m/s = 1 – [(10 x 9 x 8)/ (16 x 15 x 14)]
Hence, Quantity I ≥ Quantity II = 1 – 3/14
= 11/14 = 0.78 (approx.)
7) Answer: B So, Quantity I < Quantity II
Quantity I. Hence answer is option B
Average speed of M = 2 x (6 x 8)/ (6 + 8) = 48/7
km/hr 9) Answer: E
Speed of N = 16 km/hr (1/A) + (1/B) + (1/C) = 1/8
Let total time taken by M = a hours (1/A) + (1/B) = (1/8) – (1/24)
So, total time taken by N = (a - 22) hours (1/A) + (1/B) = 1/12 -----------(1)
Total distance travelled by M = 2 x total distance Since, ratio of A’s efficiency to B’s efficiency is 2:
travelled by N 1.
Now, (48/7) x a = 2 x 16 x (a - 22) So, ratio of time taken by A alone to B alone to
3a = 14a – 14 x 22 complete the work = 1: 2
So, value of a = (14 x 22 / 11) = 28 hours From equation (1):
Time taken by N = (28 – 22) = 6 hours (1/A) + (1/2A) = 1/12
Required distance = 16 x 6 = 96 km A = 18
Quantity II. Quantity I:
3353 = 334 x 13 + 1 Time taken by A alone to complete the whole
So, unit digit of 3353 = 3 work = 18 hours
Value of 33K = 33 x 3 = 99 So, time taken by A to complete 50% work =
So, Quantity I < Quantity II 18/2 = 9 hours.
Hence answer is option B Quantity II:
Time taken by A alone to complete the work = 18
8) Answer: B hours
Quantity I. So, time taken by D alone to complete the work
Required probability = 1 – [(1 – 0.25) x (1 – 0.2) x will either be 18 + 9 = 27 hours or 18 – 9 = 9
(1 – 0.5)] = 0.7 hours.

So, time taken by A and D together to complete 8(3/8) = 12 L
the work = 10.8 hours So, new cost of mixture = (28 * 48)/40 = Rs.33.6
If time taken by D alone to complete the work = 9 per L
hours Hence, Quantity I > Quantity II
(1/18) + (1/9) = (1 + 2)/18 = 1/6
So, time taken by A and D together to complete 11) Answer: C
the work = 6 hours According to question,
Hence, relation can't be determined. In a cone, diameter increases by __%
Height increases by __%
10) Answer: A Volume increases by __%
Let quantity of water in the mixture = ‘x’ L Percentage change does not depend on height
So, quantity of milk in the mixture = (x + 10) L and radius of cone
Since, mixture is sold at Rs.36 per L at 20% So, volume of cone = 1/3 ∏ (radius)² height
profit. i) 12, 25, 56.8
So, cost of the mixture = 36 * (100/120) = Rs.30 New volume = 1/3 ∏ (1.12 radius)² *(1.25 height)
per L = 1.568 x 1/3 ∏ (radius)² *height
Since, cost of pure milk is Rs.48 per L. Increase in volume = 56.8%
So, [(x + 10) * 48]/ (x + 10 + x) = 30 ii) 20, 5, 51.2
48x + 480 = 60x + 300 New volume = 1/3 ∏ (1.20 radius)² *(1.05 height)
x = 15 = 1.512 x 1/3 ∏ (radius)² *height
Quantity of water in the mixture = 15 L Increase in volume = 51.2%
Quantity of milk in the mixture = (15 + 10) = 25 L iii) 10, 20, 44
Quantity I: New volume = 1/3 ∏ (1.10 radius)² *(1.20 height)
Total quantity of the mixture = 25 + 15 = 40 L = 1.452 x 1/3 ∏ (radius)² *height
Quantity II: Increase in volume = 45.2%
Initial ratio of milk to water in the mixture = 25: So iii cannot follow
15 = 5: 3 iv) 5, 20, 32.3
If 8 L mixture is replaced with same quantity of New volume = 1/3 ∏ (1.05 radius)² *(1.20 height)

12) Answer: C ATQ, 196/ (33 + 16) = 196/49 = 4 hours

By using optional method, Option ii is correct.
Option i, Option iii,
Cost price of kurti = Rs.1500 Boat speed of B = 40 km/hr
Marked price of kurti = 1500 * 125% = Rs.1875 So, Boat speed of A in still water = 64 – 40 = 24
Profit = 1875 - 125 – 1500 = Rs.250 km/hr
Cost price of saree = Rs.1000 ATQ, 196/ (24 + 16) = 196/40 = 4.9 hours
ATQ, Profit of kurti = profit of saree Option iii is correct.
So, selling price of saree = Rs.1200 Hence, the correct answer is option c.
Profit of Saree = 1200 - 1000 = 200 ≠250
Option iis not true. So, we eliminate the option A, 14) Answer: D
D and E. Ratio of milk and water in vessel = 4:1
Option ii, Amount of milk initially = 4/5 x 200 = 160 ml
Cost price of saree = Rs.1600 Amount of water initially = 1/5 x 200 = 40 ml
ATQ, Profit of kurti = profit of saree I. 36, 64
Profit of Saree = 1850 - 1600 = Rs.250 When 40 litres of mixture are removed, ratio of
Hence, option iiis true. So, option C is the correct milk and water is same, 4:1
answer. Amount of milk in mixture = 160 - 32 = 128 ml
Amount of water in mixture = 40 – 8 = 32 ml
13) Answer: C On adding 40 ml of water, amount of water = 32
By using option method, + 40 = 72 ml
Given that, boat speed of A + B = 64 km/hr Required % = 128/200 = 64%
Water speed = 16 km/hr This statement is true
Option i, II. 16, 72
Boat speed of B = 24 km/hr When 20 ml of mixture are removed, ratio of milk
So, Boat speed of A in still water = 64 – 24 = 40 and water is same, 4:1
km/hr Amount of milk in mixture = 160 – 16 = 144 ml
ATQ, 196/ (40 + 16) = 196/56 = 3.5 hours Amount of water in mixture = 40 – 4 = 36 ml
Option i is correct. Now 20 ml of water added, so amount of milk in
Option ii, final mixture is same.

So, required % = 120/200 x 100 = 60% Let the distance between city X and Y be ‘D’ Km
This statement is true Time taken by bus=D/40 hr
All statements are true. From (a),
Hence answer is option D Speed of train=80 kmph
Time taken by train=D/80
15) Answer: E => D/40-D/80=3
Total amount received from Bank after three => D=240km
years = (2P + 1500) + (2P + 1500) x 1/9 x 3 = From (b), we get
4/3 x (2P + 1500) When bus runs 25% faster, speed of bus=50
Now, kmph
4/3 x (2P + 1500) x 3/2 x 3/2 = (10.2P – 1800) Time taken=D/50
6P + 4500 = 10.2P – 1800 => D/50=80/100*D/40=D/50
4.2P = 6300 This equation can’t be solved as variables equal
So, value of P = 1500 out on both sides.
I. Interest received from scheme is (5.2P – 300) From (c), we get
Money invested in Scheme = 4/3 x (2 x 1500 + Average speed of bus and car= 50 kmph
1500) = Rs. 6000 Speed of car=2*50-40=60 kmph
Required interest = 6000 x [3/2 x 3/2 – 1] = Rs. Time taken by car =D/60
7500 Total time taken=D/60+D/40=2*5
(5.2P – 300) = Rs. 7500 => (2D+3D)/120=10
This statement is true. => D=240 Km
II. Amount invested by Amol in bank is Rs. 4500 From (d), we get
Required amount = 2 x 1500 + 1500 = Rs. 4500 For half of distance, speed of car=40 kmph
This statement is true. For remaining half distance, speed of car=80
III. Interest received from Bank is Rs. P kmph
Interest received from bank = 4500 x 1/9 x 3 = Total time

So, it can’t be determined. items of C that can be bought in Rs 2646 can

19) Answer: C
Let the price of the items A, B and C be 16p, 12p
and Rs 21p respectively
From (a),
Profit on A when it is sold at Rs 140=140-16p
Profit on item B when it is sold at Rs
96.60=96.60-12p
Profit % on B- Profit % on A=10
=> [(96.60-12p)/12p-(140-16p)/16p]*100 %=10
% From (b),
The equation is solved to find the value of p.
So, CP of C can be determined and thus number
of items of C that can be bought in Rs 2646.
From (b),
When C is sold at loss of 10%,
SP=21p*0.9=18.9p
So, 13230/18.9p-13230/21p=10
The equation is solved to find value of p.
So, CP of C can be determined and thus number
of items of C that can be bought in Rs 2646.
From (c),
Numerical average price of item A and B is less
than Rs 100 and is a number that is twice the
square of a prime number less than 10 but more
than 3
=> (16p+12p)/2 i.e., 14p <100
Prime number less than 10 but more than 3 are
5 and 7.
Thus, 14p=2*52=50 or 2*72=98
Thus, value of p can’t be determined and so CP
of C can’t be determined and thus number of
also not be determined.
20) Answer: B
Prime number is less than 20 but more than 10.
Possible numbers are 11, 13, 17 and 19.
From (a),
First two even multiples average is 39. It
corresponds to 13’s multiples 26 and 52
Average of thus all odd multiples can be
evaluated.
Number of odd multiples is one more than the
number of even multiples.
For 11, multiples are 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77,
88, 99.
For 13, multiples are 13, 26, 39, 52, 65, 78 and
91.
For 17 multiples are 17, 34, 51, 68, and 85
For 19, multiples are 19, 38,57,76,95
All of them satisfy the condition.
No conclusion about the number can be
obtained
From (c),

Answer Key with Explanation

1) Answer: C
The correct sequence is: cdabe

India during the month of August.
● Sentence D correctly follows as it provides
specific numerical data and context regarding
the trade balance.
● Sentence A will be the third sentence as it
provides an introduction to the topic of services
exports and their changing dynamics, following
the information about goods exports and
imports.
● Sentence B correctly follows sentence A as it

imports.
● Sentence E will be the last sentence as it
concludes the passage by explaining the
potential consequences of the shrinking services
exports on the overall trade balance and current
account deficits, providing a final insight into the
economic situation being discussed.
Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
2) Answer: D
The word ‘widest’ is a superlative adjective.
Superlative adjectives are usually preceded by

From the given meanings, we can understand
that ‘enduring’ is the synonym of the word
‘resilient’.
Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Let’s learn the meanings of the words:
● Intangible - Not physical, cannot be perceived
● Impalpable - Cannot be touched.
● Ineffable - Too great to be expressed.
● Incorporeal - Lacking physical substance.

that the word ‘perceptible’ is the antonym of the
word ‘intangible’.
Therefore, option E is the correct answer.

correct usage as it means the capacity to
balance or make up for something.
"Raising" means making something more likely
or increasing its chances.

situation where the possibility of wider current
account deficits is becoming more likely or
increasing.
Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
6) Answer: D
Click Here For Bundle PDF Course | support@guidely.in
The first blank should describe how the
enigmatic artist's work relates to traditional art.
We need a word that indicates that the artist's
work goes beyond or surpasses the boundaries
of traditional art.
The word "Transcended" fits this meaning
perfectly as it means ‘’.
The second blank should describe the effect the
artist's work has on those who encounter it. We
need a word that suggests the work inspires a
deep sense of wonder or amazement.
The word "Evoked" is a suitable word choice as
it means a response or reaction that is triggered
or brought about by something else.
All other pairs of words do not make the
sentence contextually correct.
Therefore, option D is the correct answer.
7) Answer: A
The first blank should describe the artifacts
found in the ancient tomb. We need a word that
suggests these artifacts are mysterious,
understood by only a select few, and related to
enigmatic rituals and customs. "Esoteric" fits this
meaning precisely as it means ‘understood or
known by a select or specialized group of people
and not easily accessible or comprehensible by
the general public’.
The second blank should describe the emotions
of the archaeologists upon discovering these
artifacts.
We need a word that conveys a sense of joy,
excitement, and happiness, as well as being
Page 7 of 11
 Bank Po Mains PDF Course 2024
English Day - 7
overwhelmed. "Elated" captures these emotions
effectively as it means ‘extremely happy,
delighted’.
All other pairs of words do not make the
sentence contextually correct.
Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
8) Answer: C
The first blank should describe the pursuit of
inner peace amidst the chaos of modern life.
In this context, the word "elevation" refers to the
idea of raising one's inner self, achieving a
higher state of consciousness, or seeking a
more spiritually or morally elevated state. It
implies a pursuit of something greater than
material wealth, such as personal growth,
wisdom, or inner peace.
The second blank should describe the state of
mind one achieves through quiet contemplation.
The word "equanimity," meaning mental
calmness and composure, is an ideal choice for
this purpose.
All other pairs of words do not make the
sentence contextually correct.
Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
9) Answer: E
The first blank should describe the prevailing
conditions in the world of advanced technology.
"Benchmark" implies a standard or a level of
quality that is widely recognized and accepted,
which accurately reflects the competitive and
innovative nature of the technology industry.
Click Here For Bundle PDF Course | support@guidely.in
The second blank should describe what
companies must do to stay relevant in this
competitive environment. "Upgrade" means to
improve or enhance, and in the context of the
sentence, companies need to continually seek
ways to enhance and improve their products and
services to stay competitive in an ever-evolving
market.
All other pairs of words do not make the
sentence contextually correct.
Therefore, option E is the correct answer.
10) Answer: D
The first blank should describe the prevailing
conditions in the realm of cutting-edge scientific
research. "Paradigm" implies a widely
recognized model or example, and in this
context, it reflects that breakthroughs and
discoveries are the standard or usual
occurrences.
The second blank should describe the nature of
the mysteries scientists seek to unveil.
"Convoluted" means intricate or complex, and it
accurately describes the idea that these
mysteries are not straightforward but rather
intricate and challenging to unravel.
All other pairs of words do not make the
sentence contextually correct.
Therefore, option D is the correct answer.
11) Answer: A
The missing sentence should provide a coherent
and contextually relevant continuation of the
Page 8 of 11
 Bank Po Mains PDF Course 2024
English Day - 7
paragraph, emphasizing the importance of
addressing the ethical concerns related to AI
advancements.
Option A) "fostering collaboration among AI
developers and industry stakeholders" is the
correct choice because it suggests a proactive
approach to handling AI ethics. It implies that AI
developers, along with other key players in the
industry, should work together to find ethical
solutions. This aligns with the idea that
addressing AI's ethical implications is not the
sole responsibility of one group or entity but
requires collective effort.
Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
12) Answer: C
The contrasting conjunction ‘however’ suggests
that there should be an opposite idea in the
blank to that of the previous sentence. Sentence
C is the correct choice as it provides a
meaningful and contextually appropriate
continuation of the paragraph, emphasizing the
concerns about data privacy and security in the
era of digital transformation.
Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
13) Answer: B
Sentence B aligns with the central theme of the
paragraph, which discusses the importance of
media literacy education in addressing the
challenges posed by information overload and
misinformation.
Click Here For Bundle PDF Course | support@guidely.in
It highlights the benefits of such education,
emphasizing its role in both navigating the
information landscape and promoting digital
responsibility.
Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
14) Answer: A
The conjunction ‘while’ indicates that two
opposing ideas are being connected. The first
idea is negative, so, we need a positive
sentence in the given blank.
Sentence A provides a logical continuation of the
paragraph by highlighting the positive aspect of
technology's impact on work-life balance, which
is the potential for greater productivity and
flexibility in work arrangements due to
technological advancements.
It aligns with the idea that while technology has
posed challenges to work-life balance, it has
also presented opportunities for improved
working conditions.
Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
15) Answer: E
Option E provides a meaningful continuation of
the paragraph by emphasizing the importance of
leadership that encourages innovation and
collaboration while empowering team members.
It aligns with the idea that effective leadership in
today's dynamic business landscape goes
beyond traditional approaches and requires a
focus on fostering a culture of creativity and
collaboration.

Therefore, option E is the correct answer.
16) Answer: E

appropriately positioned and serve their intended
purpose. There are no grammatical or contextual
errors that require word swaps.
The word ‘fervent’ means ‘having or displaying a
passionate intensity. ‘Fervent discussions’
appropriately describes the tone and nature of
the conversations at the international summit.
The word ‘Devaluation’ means the reduction or
underestimation of the worth.
‘Ongoing fluctuations’ represents the continuous
and varied changes in the global economy.
"Dollar depreciation against multiple major
currencies" This phrase correctly indicates the
depreciation of the U.S. dollar concerning
several significant currencies, which contributes
to the appreciation of the nation's currency.
Therefore, option E is the correct answer.
17) Answer: C
