MPPSC Paper 2 (GA) Mock Test - 4 - MPPSC (Madhya Pradesh) MCQ

Let be no. of women and be no. of men.

Then no. of handshakes

Then factors of 24 are

Thus or and or , it is immaterial for present answer.

Next, no. of hugs is given by (easy if u remember that only women/men hug at a time within their groups).

Then start placing the groups of factors. We find that for first, number of hugs is ;

for second ; for third .

Only is given in answer.

If two numbers are and ,

then reciprocals are and

Given data:

The logic follows here is:

19,9,140

(19+9)×5

28×5=140

17,9,130

(17+9)×5

26×5=130

Similarly,

?,5,120

(?+5)×5=120

(?+5)=120÷5

(?+5)=24

?=24−5

?=19

Thus, the correct answer is 19.

It is clear from the given statement that some supporters of 'X' who are members of 'Y' agreed to the alliance with 'Z'. So, I is incorrect and III is correct. On the same lines, they agreed to the alliance because their friends in party 'Z' persuaded them; so II is also correct.

Given:

The average of 5 consecutive even number is 102.

Let 5 consecutive even number be .

We know that:

First even number x = 98

Last even number (x+8) = 106

The difference of first and last number = 106-98 = 8

∴ The difference between the first and last number is 8.

LOGIC: First is the process of formation of the second.

When anything melts, it forms a liquid.

Similarly,

When anything freezes it forms solid.

Hence, "solid" is the correct answer.

The correct answer is Neither 1 nor 2

Key Points

• Let's look at the flow of the passage to understand all its implications properly:
  • First, the passage talks about how the economic liberalization or easing in India was not a result of priorities or choices or objectives of long-term development but that of problems or issues
  • Then it states that due to having the wrong reasons, the liberalization, as also confirmed by the author's own experiences, had structural and conceptual flaws
  • The author then goes on to specifically state the results of those flaws, i.e., jobless growth, persistent poverty, rising inequality
  • The author further describes the already present long-term impacts of the above results, i.e., constrained agriculture, infrastructure, industrialization and education
  • Finally, the author suggests that the above issues must be resolved for sustained and transformational economic developmental growth
• Let's look at each of the assumptions given:
  • 'India's economy needs to be greatly integrated with the global economy so as to create a large number of jobs and to sustain its growth momentum':
    • ​Although the passage does mention about jobless growth and sustainable development, it nowhere mentions anything about the global economy or the integration of India's economy with it
  • 'Economic liberalization would cause large economic growth which would reduce poverty and create sufficient employment in the long run':
    • ​As we can clearly see from the passage, India has already undergone economic liberalization but since its very design was flawed, problems arose in various sectors including poverty and unemployment; this renders the above assumption invalid

Thus the correct answer is Option 4

The correct answer is Neither 1 nor 2.

Key Points

• The passage clearly talks about the historical injustice that spans across many categories like economic deprivation, social discrimination and lack of recognition. So assumption 1 is not necessarily right.
• Assumption 2 is not mentioned anywhere in the passage.

Hence both are invalid.

The correct mirror image of the given image is shown below,

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Concept:

• When a person moves along the right from any direction, he/she will move clockwise direction and when moves along the left, he/she will move anti-clockwise direction

Explanation:

Puja left her house and walks a distance of 80 m towards the north.

Then turns to her right and walks for 120 m.

She again turns right and walks for 80 m.

At this point, she finally tums to her right and walks for 150 m.

Here, in the figure, A is the starting and point and E is the final point

Now, She is 30 km from the starting point and her house is in the East direction from her final reached point.

So, the correct answer is option-A-30m due East direction

Calculation:

If an item is sold at a 200% profit, this means the profit is twice the cost of the item.

Let's symbolize the cost price as C.P and the selling price as S.P.

Given that a 200% profit is made, it means that S.P = C.P + 2C.P = 3C.P

The ratio of the cost price (C.P) to the selling price (S.P)

⇒ C.P : 3C.P

⇒ 1 : 3.

∴ The ratio of its cost price to its selling price will be 1 : 3.

In choosing the most suitable solution that HR director should consider there are several important factors to consider, which includes :

1. Employee retention issues among its senior consultants.
2. HR director wants to address the problem and improve overall job satisfaction.

So, checking all options:

Thus, Option - (4): 'Implementing a sabbatical program allowing consultants to take extended breaks for personal and professional development' is the correct solution that HR director should consider.

Hence, the correct answer is “Option - (4)”.

सही उत्तर है "मनुष्य के लिए काम करना आवश्यक है।"

Key Points

• आइए दिए गए विकल्पों के अर्थों पर ध्यान दें:
• विकल्प (1)- यह कथन बताता है "मनुष्य के लिए काम करना आवश्यक है"। दिया गया गद्यांश भी हमारे कार्यों को करने के लिए हमारे दायित्वों के बारे में बात करता है और मनुष्य के लिए काम करना आवश्यक है क्योंकि वह बिना काम किए आखिर कैसे भोजन प्राप्त कर सकता है?
• दिया गया गद्यांश हमारे काम करने के महत्व पर भी जोर देता है। हमारा काम दूसरों पर फेंकना और मुक्त होना अवैध है। लेखक यह भी बताता है कि पूरी मानव जाति अकाल के कारण नष्ट हो जाएगी यदि वे केवल आराम प्राप्त करने के लिए काम करने से परहेज करते हैं। वह बताता है कि मनुष्यों के पास काम की मात्रा और आराम, जिसका वे आनंद ले सकें, के बीच एक उचित संतुलन होना चाहिए। इस तरह, यह कथन मुख्य विचार देता है जो पूरे गद्यांश का निचोड़ है।
• विकल्प (2)- यह बताता है कि "काम और अवकाश के बीच एक संतुलन होना चाहिए" जो कि गद्यांश में उल्लेख किया गया है लेकिन स्पष्ट रूप से गद्यांश का मुख्य विचार नहीं है।
• विकल्प (3)- यह "काम करना अत्याचार है जिसका हमें सामना करना पड़ता है" के बारे में बताता है। लेकिन यह भी गद्यांश का मुख्य विचार नहीं है।
• विकल्प (4)- इसमें लिखा है, "कार्य की प्रकृति के बारे में मानव की समझ आवश्यक है"। गद्यांश में कहीं भी इसका उल्लेख नहीं है। अतः सही नहीं है।
• अतः, सही उत्तर विकल्प (1) है।

Additional Information

• आइए हम गद्यांश में उल्लिखित कुछ कठिन शब्दों के अर्थों को देखें:
• अकाल- भोजन की अत्यधिक कमी
• हुक्म देना- किसी को चर्च का पुजारी बनाना।
• अत्याचार- किसी देश या राज्य को नियंत्रित करने के लिए किसी व्यक्ति या छोटे समूह द्वारा सत्ता का क्रूर और अनुचित उपयोग

Given Statements:

All valleys are mountains.

No sea is a mountain.

Some plains are seas.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:

Conclusions:

I. Some valleys are plains - False (Because, No definite relation given between valleys and plains, So, Some valleys are plains can be possible only).

II. No plain is a mountain - False (Because, No definite relation given between plain and mountain, So, No plain is a mountain can be possible only).

III. No sea is a valley - True (Because, All the valleys are mountains and No mountain is Sea, so No sea is a valley).

So, Only conclusion III follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Given:

The number is increased by 10%.

The same decreased by 10%.

Last the number increased by 20%

Concept used:

Percent change =

Calculation:

Let the number be 100,

According to the question,

New number = 100 × 110/100 × 90/100 × 120/100 = 118.8

Percentage change =

Percentage change = 18.8%.

∴ The net change in percent is 18.8% increase.
