MAT Mock Test - 7 - MAT MCQ

The proper sequence is: RPSQ

Reason:

• Sentence R will be the first sentence of the sequence because it tells to whom Sita told something.
• Sentence P will come after R because it mentions what Sita told Ram.
• Sentence S will come after P because it is expressing possession ownership or acquisition of something.
• The sentence 'Q' is the concluding part because it is expressing possession ownership or acquisition of dogs.

The correct sentence is:

Sita told Ravi that they are not going to have any more dogs.

The error lies in the part (R) of the sentence.

The error lies in the usage of the plural verb 'do' instead of the singular verb 'does'.

The verb refers to the subject 'he', which is singular.

So, according to the rules of the subject-verb agreement, the verb needs to be singular too.

According to the rules of the subject-verb agreement, a verb needs to agree with its subject in person and number.

When the subject is a plural noun or any one of the following - they/we/ I/you - then the verb used is 'do'.

When the subject is a singular noun or any one of the following - he/she/it - then we use 'does'.

So, the complete sentence is - If you describe someone as a maverick, you mean that he is unconventional and independent and does not think or behave in the same way as other people.

He bid goodbye to his friends before leaving.

Bid means to greet, command.

The given sentence is a simple indefinite sentense so use of bid is appropriate here.

In the simple present, most regular verbs use the root form, except in the third-person singular (which ends in -s).

Statement I is correct given the fact that the NDMA guidelines are regarding the prevention of floods and other disasters and these prevent the administration to go against the nature of land to grant permission to construct something on it without proper background analysis and research. According to the passage, “granting such permissions is an abdication of responsibility and a violation of National Disaster Management Authority Guidelines to prevent urban flooding.”

Statement II is also correct because it is very clear from the passage that the Chennai City Administration has miserably failed to do justice to flood prevention in the city. They have given permission to construct structures in areas of lake beds and river catchment areas. It is actually very much harmful to urban flooding.

Statement III is also correct for the fact that the response of the state administration around the country has not been very proactive and that is why there have been too many encroachments in the river-bed areas and lake bed areas of the country. According to the passage, “they are hesitant to act against the encroachment of lake catchments, river courses, and floodplains.”

According to the passage, “after a worrying pre-monsoon phase between March and May, when rainfall was scarce, the current robust season in most parts of coastal, western and central India augurs well for the entire economy.”

It is clear from the passage that the monsoon will be robust now after a worrying start to the monsoon season in the country. Now, most of the areas in the country will have adequate rainfall. It is taking place in certain areas whereas there will be rainfall in the other areas in the days to come. There is no prediction of any kind of drought in the country this year. Among the given options, we can see that option (B) gives us the correct information whereas the rest are irrelevant and hence eliminated from consideration.

Reciprocal means expressing mutual relationship or action.

One-sided means having or occurring on one side of something only.

The option that is opposite in meaning to the underlined word 'reciprocal' is 'one-sided'.

We need to check the grammatical and contextual connections of the parts to find the sequence.

Part P starts with the pronoun 'those'.

It will be the first part of the sentence.

Part Q mentions two other types of people.

It will be the second part of the sentence.

Part R contains 'and weak and strong'.

Since 'and' is used, it comes in third place after the first two categories.

Part S contains the verb.

It will be the last part of the sentence.

Thus the correct sequence is PQRS.

As per the English alphabetical series and its place value.The logic followed here is:

Thus, ‘BN’ is the correct answer.

Using the above symbols, we get the following family tree:

Therefore, V is the brother-in-law of E.

The logic here is as follows,

So, "HWG" is the correct answer.

Given,

Among five friends, Mahesh is taller than Karan but not as tall as Yash. Hrithik is taller than Yash but not as tall as Abhishek.

According to the given information,

Yash > Mahesh > Karan ....(i)

Abhishek > Hrithik > Yash ...(ii)

From equations (i) and (ii), we get

Karan < Mahesh < Yash < Hrithik < Abhishek

Manish is older than Rohan and Vikas is younger than Naveen and Rohan.

Manish > Rohan, Naveen / Rohan > Vikas

Manish is older than Naveen.

Manish > Naveen

On combining both the statements, we get:

Manish > Naveen / Rohan > Vikas

Thus, we can see that Vikas is the youngest.

Raghu is in North-East direction with reference to the starting point.

Boxes: 1 to 8

Colours: Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, Orange, Brown, Black and Pink. (not necessarily in the same order).

1) There are four boxes between the orange colour box and the blue colour box.

2) The orange colour box is placed in an even-numbered position but not at the topmost or the lowermost position.

3) There are two boxes between the orange colour box and the brown colour box.

Case 1

Case 2

4) Pink colour box is placed immediately below the red colour box but not at an even-numbered position.

Thus, case 1 gets eliminated.

Case 2

5) Yellow colour box is neither placed immediately below the blue colour box nor immediately below the orange colour box.

6) Black colour box is not placed immediately above the brown colour box.

So, we get the final arrangement is as follows:

1. Green box/ Red box → Only one box is placed between these boxes

2. Orange box/ Yellow box → Only one box is placed between these boxes

3. Red box/ Orange box → Only one box is placed between these boxes

4. Pink box/ Black box → Only one box is placed between these boxes

5. Black box/ Green box → Four boxes are placed between these boxes

So, Black box/ Green box is the odd one.

According to the statements, 

As, the awareness about health in the society is increasing particularly among middle-aged group of people so the importance of Yoga and exercise is being realized by all sections of the society. Thus, statement II is the cause and statement I is its effect.

Quantity A:

Given,

A's capacity = 18 liters

A's milk concentration = 16.66% 

B's capacity = 24 liters

B's milk concentration = 37.5% 

C's capacity = 50  liters

Milk in A = 1/6 × 18

= 3 liters

Milk in B = 3/8 × 24 

= 9 liters

Remaining part of C = 50 - (18 + 24) 

= 8 liters

Total milk = 3 + 9 + 8 

= 20 liters

Milk concentration = 20/50 × 100 

= 40%

Quantity B: 45%

Quantity - I:

Downstream speed = 16 kmph

Speed of stream = 4 kmph

Upstream speed = 12 - 4 = 8 kmph

Let the distance travelled = D kms

Time taken in downstream = T hours.

Time taken in upstream = T + 2 hours.

According to the question.

D/16 = T

D/8 = T + 2

On solving above equation we get,

T = 2 hours.

D = 32 kms.

Quantity - II:

When the distance is same.

Let the speed of Boat in still water = (u) kmph

Let the speed of stream = (v) kmph

u + v = 8x      ----(1)

u - v = 5x      ----(2)

Solving eq (1) and eq (2)

u = 13/2

v = 3/2

Percentage = u/v × 100

Percentage = 13/3 × 100 = 433.3%

Quantity III:

Side : length : breadth = 1x : 4x : 2x      ----(1)

Difference = 3x

Actual difference = 15 cm

3x = 15 cm

x = 5 cm

Area of rectangle = (2x) × (4x)

Area of rectangle = 200 cm² 
Quantity - I < Quantity – II > Quantity – III

Given:

Rate of interest per month

Amount paid after 6 months Rs. 13110

Amount,

Simple interest,

Where Principal, rate of interest, time

Suppose the sum borrowed be Rs.

Amount of interest

= Rs. 1710

Given:

The ratio of income of Narender and Pinnu = 4 ∶ 5

Sum of Narender and Pinnu’s expenditure = Rs. 22000

Savings of Narender = Expenditure of Pinnu

Total Savings = Total income – Total Expenditure

Let the income of Narender and Pinnu be 4k and 5k.

And also let the expenditure of Narender be x

Now savings of Narender = 4k – x

Now by question the expenditure of Pinnu = Savings of Narender

So, Expenditure of Pinnu = 4k – x

Now, the sum of Narender and Pinnu’s expenditure = Rs. 22000

⇒ x + 4k - x = Rs. 22000

⇒ 4k = Rs. 22000

⇒ k = Rs. 5500

Now, total Income of Narender and Pinnu = 4k + 5k = 9k

Now put the value of k

⇒ 9 × 5500 = Rs. 49500

Now to find the sum of their savings

Total Savings = Total income – Total Expenditure

⇒ Total savings = 49500 – 22000

⇒ Total savings = Rs. 27500

Now, the ratio of the sum of their income to the sum of their savings

⇒ Total income ∶ Total Savings

= 49500 ∶ 27500

= 9 ∶ 5

∴ The ratio of the sum of their income to the sum of their savings is 9 ∶ 5.

Given,

First exterior angle = 121° 

Second exterior angle = 104° 

The sum of all the exterior angles of a triangle is 360° 

Sum of interior angle and exterior angle is 180°

 Let the three interior angles be A, B, and C and the third exterior angle be x

⇒ 121° + 104° + x = 360° 

⇒ x = 360° – 225° 

⇒ x = 135° 

Interior angles are,

A = 180° – 121° = 59° 

B = 180° – 104° = 76° 

C = 180° – 135° = 45° 

∴ The measure of the largest angle of the triangle is 76°.

Given:

Price = Rs 20000.

10% increased every year

Formula used:

Successive increased = x + y + 

Calculation:

Successive increased in 2 years = x + y + 

After 2 year = 10 + 10 +  = 21

100 increased to 121 units

100 units = Rs. 20000

1 unit = Rs. 200

⇒ 121 units = Rs. 24200

∴ The price of laptop after 2 years will be Rs 24200.

Given:

The efficiency of A = 2 x efficiency of B

Time taken by A = time taken by B - 20

Time

Efficiency → A : B = 2 : 1
Time taken → A : B = 1 : 2
Difference in time = 2 − 1 = 1 ratio

∴ 1 ratio = 20 days

A's time = 20 days

B's time = 40 days

(A + B)' s one day work

Time taken to complete the work days.

Price-discrimination is profitable and possible if the two markets have a highly elastic demand. Price discrimination is possible when the monopolist sells in different markets in such a way that it is not possible to transfer any unit of the commodity from the cheap market to the dearer market. It is profitable when markets have high elasticity in demand.
