    Birsa Munda
  • c)
    Kanu
  • d)
    Gunda Dhur
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Pooja Shah answered
Gunda Dhur was an important leader of the rebellion. 
In 1905, the colonial government imposed laws to reserve two-thirds of the forests, stop shifting cultivation, hunting and collection of forest produce. People of many villages were displaced without any notice or compensation. For long, villagers had been suffering from increased land rents and frequent demands for free labour and goods by colonial officials. The terrible famines in 1899–1900 and again in 1907–1908 made the life of people miserable. They blamed the colonial rule for their sorry plight. The initiative of rebellion was taken by the Dhurwas of the Kanger forest, where reservation first took place.

Question -
8 : 28 :: 27 : ?
  • a)
    28
  • b)
    8
  • c)
    64
  • d)
    65
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Nandini Singh answered
First number = 8 and the sum of the digits of the second number is 2 + 8 = 10.
Thus the difference of the first number and the sum of the digits of second number is 10 - 8 = 2.
Similarly, the sum of the digits of third number is 2 + 7 = 9.
Hence the sum of digits of fourth number should be 2 more than 9 i.e. 11
Hence, fourth number is 65.

This question consists of a pair of words which have a certain relationship to each other. Select the pair which does NOT have the same relationship.

Liable : Accountable → Liable and Accountable are synonyms.
Modest : Humble → Modest and Humble are synonyms.
Outbreak : Eruption → Outbreak and Eruption are synonyms.
However,
Nimble : Sluggish → Nimble and Sluggish are antonyms, not synonyms.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

An infamous film, which was made to create hatred for Jews was :
  • a)
    The Essential Jew
  • b)
    The Evergreen Jew
  • c)
    The Eternal Jew 
  • d)
    The Emigrant Je
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Arun Sharma answered
Propaganda films were made to create hatred for Jews. The most infamous film was The Eternal Jew. Orthodox Jews were stereotyped and marked. They were shown with flowing beards wearing kaftans. They were referred to as vermin, rats, and pests. Their movements were compared to those of rodents. Orthodox Jews were stereotyped as killers of Christ and moneylenders. Stereotypes about Jews were popularised even through Maths classes. Children were taught to hate the Jews. The Nazi propaganda against the Jews was so effective that people felt anger and hatred surge inside them when they saw someone who looked like a Jew.

Question -
144 : 10 :: 169 : ?
  • a)
    14
  • b)
    11
  • c)
    13
  • d)
    12
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Sanaya Sharma answered
Sure, let's find the correct answer for the given problem.

144 : 10 :: 169 : ?

- 144 is a perfect square (12²) and its square root is 12.
- 12 is then reduced to 10 by subtracting 2 (12 - 2 = 10).
- Similarly, 169 is a perfect square (13²) and its square root is 13.
- Following the same pattern, subtract 2 from 13 (13 - 2 = 11).

Thus, the correct answer is:

B: 11

- 169 : 11

Three of the following four are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which is the one that does NOT belong to that group?
(Note : The odd one out is not based on the number of consonants/vowels or their position in the letter cluster.)
  • a)
    PSU 
  • b)
    HKN 
  • c)
    DGJ 
  • d)
    TWZ
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Amrita Reddy answered
Understanding the Grouping
To determine which option does not belong to the group, let's analyze the given sets of letters:
- a) PSU
- b) HKN
- c) DGJ
- d) TWZ
Identifying Patterns
1. Sequential Letters:
- Check if the letters within each option follow a sequential pattern in the English alphabet.
- For example:
- HKN: H (8), K (11), N (14) - all letters are separated by an interval of 3.
- DGJ: D (4), G (7), J (10) - all letters are separated by an interval of 3.
- TWZ: T (20), W (23), Z (26) - all letters are separated by an interval of 3.
2. Examining PSU:
- PSU: P (16), S (19), U (21) - the intervals between these letters are not consistent (P to S = 3, S to U = 2).
Conclusion
- Based on the analysis, the letters in options b) HKN, c) DGJ, and d) TWZ exhibit a consistent pattern of being separated by an interval of 3, whereas a) PSU does not follow this rule.
Final Decision
- Therefore, the odd one out is a) PSU as it does not share the same sequential characteristic present in the other three options.

'College' is related to 'Teachers' in the same way as 'Hospital' is related to:
  • a)
    Doctors
  • b)
    Patients
  • c)
    Medicine
  • d)
    Beds
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Understanding the Relationship
In the analogy presented, we need to explore how 'College' relates to 'Teachers' and find a similar relationship for 'Hospital'.
Relationship Analysis
- A 'College' is an institution where 'Teachers' educate students.
- The primary function of a college involves the presence of teachers who impart knowledge.
Applying the Same Logic
Now, let's apply this structure to the term 'Hospital':
- A 'Hospital' is a facility where healthcare is provided.
- The key professionals in a hospital are 'Doctors', who diagnose and treat patients.
Comparative Analysis
When we compare the relationships:
- Just as 'Teachers' are essential for a 'College' to function effectively, 'Doctors' are crucial for a 'Hospital'.
- Both pairs emphasize the role of professionals in educational and healthcare settings.
Examining Other Options
- Patients: While important, they are not the professionals providing care.
- Medicine: Refers to the treatment itself, not the professionals administering it.
- Beds: These are physical resources within a hospital but do not represent the core professional role.
Conclusion
Thus, the most logical answer is:
Option A: Doctors
This choice maintains the same professional relationship found in the original pair, reinforcing the connection between institutions and the roles that define them.

Select the option that is related to the fifth number in the same way as the fourth number is related to the third number and the second number is related to the first number.
76 : 69 :: 49 : 45 :: 69 : ?
  • a)
    62
  • b)
    63
  • c)
    67
  • d)
    65
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

The logic followed here is:
Logic: (1st number - 1st digit of that number) = 2nd number.
Now,
For, 76 : 69
⇒ (76 - 7) = 69.
For, 49 : 45
⇒ (49 - 4) = 45.
Similarly, for 69 : ?
⇒ (69 - 6) = 63.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding/deleting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)
(10, 20, 4)
(15, 30, 6) 
  • a)
    (20, 40, 8) 
  • b)
    (20, 30, 8)
  • c)
    (20, 40, 6)
  • d)
    (10, 40, 8) 
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

The logic followed here is : [(1st number × 2) + 2nd number] ÷ 10 = 3rd number
Given : 
(10, 20, 4)
[(10 × 2) + 20] ÷ 10 = 4 
[20 + 20] ÷ 10 = 4 
40 ÷ 10 = 4
4 = 4 (LHS = RHS)
And,
(15, 30, 6) 
[(15 × 2) + 30] ÷ 10 = 6
[30 + 30] ÷ 10 = 6
60 ÷ 10 = 6
6 = 6 (LHS = RHS)
So,
Option - (1) : (20, 40, 8) 
[(20 × 2) + 40] ÷ 10 = 8
[40 + 40] ÷ 10 = 8
80 ÷ 10 = 8
8 = 8 (LHS = RHS)
Option - (2) : (20, 30, 8)
[(20 × 2) + 30] ÷ 10 = 6
[40 + 30] ÷ 10 = 6
70 ÷ 10 = 6
7 ≠ 6 (LHS ≠ RHS)
Option - (3) : (20, 40, 6)
[(20 × 2) + 40] ÷ 10 = 6
[40 + 40] ÷ 10 = 6
80 ÷ 10 = 6
8 ≠ 6 (LHS ≠ RHS)
Option - (4) : (10, 40, 8) 
[(10 × 2) + 40] ÷ 10 = 8
[20 + 40] ÷ 10 = 8
60 ÷ 10 = 8
7 ≠ 8 (LHS ≠ RHS)
Hence, "Option - (1)" is the correct answer.

In each of the following questions find out the alternative which will replace the question mark.
Question -
Poles : Magnet :: ? : Battery
  • a)
    Cells
  • b)
    Power
  • c)
    Terminals
  • d)
    Energy
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Explanation:

The given analogy is Poles : Magnet :: ? : Battery. We need to find the alternative which will replace the question mark.

Poles and Magnet are related to each other because poles are the ends of a magnet where the magnetic force is strongest.

Similarly, we need to find a word which is related to Battery.

Cells, Power, Terminals, and Energy are all related to Battery in some way. Let's see how:

Cells: Batteries consist of cells that convert chemical energy into electrical energy.

Power: Batteries are a source of power that provide electrical energy to devices.

Terminals: Batteries have positive and negative terminals that allow them to be connected to devices and provide electrical energy.

Energy: Batteries store potential energy that is converted into electrical energy.

Out of these options, Terminals is the most appropriate alternative to replace the question mark because poles and terminals are both the ends of an object and are used for connectivity. Thus, the correct answer is option 'C' - Terminals.

Direction: In each of the following questions a pair of capitalised words is followed by four pair of words. You are required to mark as the answer the pair of words which have a relationship between them most similar to the relationship between the capitalised pair.
Malapropism : Words
  • a)
    Anachronism : Time
  • b)
    Ellipsis : Sentence
  • c)
    Jinjanthropism : Apes
  • d)
    Catechism : Religion
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Malapropism: The mistaken use of a word in place of a similar-sounding one, often with unintentionally amusing or nonsensical results.
  1. Anachronism: Something or someone placed in the wrong time period, out of its proper chronological order.
  2. Ellipsis: The omission of one or more words from a sentence, where the omitted words are understood from the context.
  3. Jinjanthropism: Attributing human characteristics or behavior to apes or other non-human primates.
  4. Catechism: A summary of religious principles, often in the form of questions and answers, used for instruction in religious doctrine.
Hence according to meanings, Option A is correct.
