Data Sufficiency - Practice Test(1) - Question 1

Directions to Solve
In each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and answer

 

Question: How is 'No' coded in the code language?

Statements:

I. 'Ne Pa Sic Lo' means 'But No None And' and 'Pa Lo Le Ne' means 'If None And But'.

II. 'Le Se Ne Sic' means 'If No None Will' and 'Le Pi Se Be' means 'Not None If All'.

Detailed Solution: Question 1

Explanation:

In the two statements given in I, the common words are 'But', 'None', 'And' and the

common code words are 'Ne', 'Pa', ,'Lo'. So, 'Ne', 'Pa' and 'Lo' are codes for 'But', 'None' and 'And'. Thus, in the first statement, 'Sic' is the code for 'No'.

Data Sufficiency - Practice Test(1) - Question 2

Question:

Who among P, Q, T, V and M is exactly in the middle when they are arranged in ascending order of their heights ?

Statements:

I. V is taller than Q but shorter than M.

II. T is taller than Q and M but shorter than P.

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Explanation:

From I, we have: M > V > Q.

From II, we have: T > Q, T > M, P > T.

Combining the above two, we have: P>T>M>V>Q i.e. Q

Clearly, M is in the middle.

Which code word stands for 'good' in the coded sentence 'sin co bye' which means 'He is good'?

Statements:

II. In the same code language, 'sin mic bye' means 'He is honest'.

Detailed Solution: Question 3

Explanation:

In the given statement and I, the common word is 'good' and the common code word is 'co'. So, 'co' is the code for 'good'.

In the given statement and II, the common words are 'He' and 'is' and the common code words are 'sin' and 'bye'. So 'sin' and 'bye' are the codes for 'He' and 'is'. Thus, in the given statement, 'co' is the code for 'good'.

What is the numerical code for 'water' in a certain code?

Statements:

I. The code for 'give me water' is '719'.

Detailed Solution: Question 4

In I and II, the common words are 'me' and 'water' and the common code numbers are '7' and '1'. So, the code for 'water' is either '7' or '1'.

Data Sufficiency - Practice Test(1) - Question 5

Question:

How many visitors saw the exhibition yesterday?

Statements:

I. Each entry pass holder can take up to three persons with him/her.

II. In all, 243 passes were sold yesterday.

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Explanation:Explanation:
 


  • Statement I alone does not provide a specific number of visitors as it only gives a rule regarding how many people can enter with each pass holder. It does not give any information on how many pass holders actually brought guests with them.

  • Statement II alone provides the total number of passes sold, which is 243, but it does not specify how many visitors actually attended the exhibition with these passes. Without knowing how many guests each pass holder brought, we cannot determine the total number of visitors.

  • Combining both statements does not help in determining the exact number of visitors as we still do not have information on how many guests each pass holder brought with them.

  • Therefore, neither statement alone nor both statements together are sufficient to determine the number of visitors who saw the exhibition yesterday.
