👆Ans. A
Explanation:

As A is a female, we can eliminate option (D), i.e. brother, straightaway. Now, as A share the same relation with B and C that B shares with C, they must belong to the same generation. Hence, we can rule out options (B) and (C) too.

Explanation:

Area of coffee shop = 5 metre × 4 metre = 20 square metres

Area of one tile = 0.2 metres × 0.2 metre = 0.04 square metres

Number of tiles required = Area of rectangular region / Area of one square tile = 20 square metres / 0.04 square metres = 500

Therefore, total cost of fitting the tiles = number of tiles × cost of fitting 1 tile = 500 × 40 = Rs. 20,000

Explanation:

Two digit numbers: The two digits can be 3 and 9: Two possibilities - 39 and 93.

Three-digit numbers: The three digits can be 1, 3 and 9, i.e. 3! or 6 possibilities - 139, 193, 319, 391, 913, 931. We cannot have three digits as (3, 3, 3) as the digits have to be distinct.

Also, we cannot have numbers with 4 digits or more without repeating the digits. So, there are a total of 8 such numbers.

Explanation:

From the graph it is clear that amount lent on simple interest in year 2006 = Rs. 250000, rate of interest = 20 % per annum and time = 1 year

Simple interest = (250000 × 20 × 1)/100 = Rs. 50000

Amount lent on compound interest in year 2006 = Rs. 300000, rate of interest = 10 % per annum and time = 1 year

Compound interest = (300000 × 10 × 1) /100 = Rs. 30000

Difference between interests earned by money lender from simple interest and compound interest in year 2006 = 50000 – 30000 = Rs. 20,000

👆Ans. D
Explanation:

Here, first two positions are fixed for alphabets and the last two for numbers.

Let encrypted code be a1 a2 b1 b2. Where a1, a2 are English alphabets, and b1, b2 are numbers.

There are 26 English alphabets and we have to choose 2 distinct alphabets. First alphabet can be selected in 26 ways and second alphabet can be chosen in 25 ways.

Out of 9 digits (1 to 9), first digit can be selected in 9 ways and second digit can be selected in 8 ways. Thus, the number of possible distinct codes = 26 × 25 × 9 × 8 = 46800

Q1. Two trains A & B running in opposite directions take 5 minutes to cross each other. Their lengths are 2000 meters and 1600 meters respectively. Speeds of these trains are x & y kmph respectively. Which of the following relationship(s) between their speeds is/are true?

(a) 100x + 10y = 360

(b) 100x + 100y = 3600

(c) x + y = 43.2

(d) Both (b) & (c) are correct

Share & Join: @CSAT_2023

👆Ans. C
Explanation

Time taken by the two trains to cross each other = 5 minutes = 1/12 hrs.

Distance covered in crossing each other = 2000 + 1600 = 3600 meters = 3.6 km

Speeds of these trains are x & y kmph respectively.

Time taken to cross each other = distance/speed= 3.6/ (x+y) = 1/12

or (x+y) = 3.6 × 12

or (x+y) = 43.2 kmph

Q2. Four-digit numbers are to be formed using the digits 5, 6, 7 and 8, and none of these four digits are to be repeated in any manner. Further, 5 is not to appear at the first place. Numbers 6 and 7 are not to immediately follow each other. 8 is not to appear at the last place, and number 5 is not to be immediately followed by 7. How many such numbers can be formed?

(a) 6

(b) 8

(c) 9

(d) 10

Share & Join: @CSAT_2023

👆Ans. A
Explanation:

According to question, four-digit numbers are to be formed. From the conditions given for the four positions (digits) of the number, we get:

➡️ 5 cannot come at the first place. So, 6, 7 and 8 can appear there.
➡️ 8 is not to appear at the last place. So, 5, 6 and 7 can appear there.
➡️ 6 and 7 are not to immediately follow each other, i.e. they cannot be together. So, 67 and 76 are not allowed.
➡️ 5 is not to be immediately followed by 7. So, 57 is not allowed.
➡️ List of possible numbers - 6875, 6587, 7586, 7856, 7865 and 8756.

Hence, six such numbers can be formed.

Q3. Given 4 flags of different colours, how many different signals can be generated, if a signal requires the use of 2 flags one below the other?

(a) 6

(b) 8

(c) 12

(d) None of the above

Share & Join: @CSAT_2023

👆Ans. C
Explanation:

There will be as many signals as there are ways of filling in 2 vacant places in succession by the 4 flags of different colours.

It is mentioned that the signal requires the use of 2 flags one below the other.

The upper vacant place can be filled in 4 different ways by any one of the 4 flags. After this, the lower vacant place can be filled in 3 different ways by any one of the remaining 3 different flags.

Hence, by the multiplication principle, the required number of signals = 4 × 3 = 12.

Q4. Ram’s salary is more than Shyam’s salary, but less than Mayank’s salary. On the other hand, Vijay’s salary is more than that of Ganesh. Mayank’s salary, however, is less than the salary of Ganesh. Whose salary is the lowest?

(a) Vijay

(b) Mayank

(c) Shyam

(d) Ram

Share & Join: @CSAT_2023

👆Ans. C
Explanation:

As per the question,

Ram’s salary is more than Shyam’s salary, but less than Mayank’s salary: Mayank > Ram > Shyam

Vijay’s salary is more than that of Ganesh: Vijay > Ganesh

However, Mayank’s salary is less than that of Ganesh, therefore overall order is: Vijay > Ganesh > Mayank > Ram > Shyam

Therefore, Shyam’s salary is the lowest.
