SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 1

The weights of four boxes are 20, 30, 40 and 60 kilograms. Which of the following cannot be the total weight, in kilograms, of any combination of these boxes, given that in a combination a box can be used only once?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 1
Total weight = 20 + 30 + 40 + 60 = 150 kg
30 + 40 + 60 = 130 kg
20 + 30 + 60 = 110 kg
20 + 30 + 40 = 90 kg
40 + 60 + 20 = 120 kg
No combination can make 140 kg.

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 4

Which two signs should be interchanged to make the following equation correct?
20 ÷ 20 + 20 - 25 × 25 = 419

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 4
  • Now, interchanging ÷ and ×, the new equation will be:
  • 20 × 20 + 20 - 25 ÷ 25
  • 400 + 20 - 1
  • 420 - 1
  • 419 = 419
  • Hence, ÷ and × will be interchanged.
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 5
Select the option that will fill the blank and complete the given series.
2, 5, 10, 17, 26, 37, ____, 65, 82, 101
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 5
In the given series, an odd number starting from 3 is being added each time. Therefore, the pattern is given below:
2 + 3 = 5
5 + 5 = 10
10 + 7 = 17
17 + 9 = 26
26 + 11 = 37
37 + 13 = 50
50 + 15 = 65
65 + 17 = 82
82 + 19 = 101
Hence, 50 is the missing number.
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 6

If + denotes -, - denotes ×, × denotes ÷, ÷ denotes +, then what will be the numeric value of 60 ×10 ÷ 40 + 6 - 5?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 6

So, if + denotes -, - denotes ×, × denotes ÷, and ÷ denotes +, then the equation would be:
60 ÷ 10 + 40 - 6 × 5
So, according to BODMAS,
60 ÷ 10 + 40 - 6 × 5
= 6 + 40 - 6 × 5
= 6 + 40 - 30
= 46 - 30
= 16
The answer is 16.

N + 4 = R; R + 5 = W
P + 4 = T; T + 5 = Y
A + 3 = D; D + 8 = L
L + 4 = P; P + 5 = U
Thus, the letter-cluster ADL is different from the others.

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 11

Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements.
Statements:
1. Some animals are elephants.
2. Some elephants are tigers.
Conclusions:
I. Some animals are tigers.
II. No tiger is an animal.

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 11

  • Let A = the set of all animals.

  • Let E = the set of all elephants.

  • Let T = the set of all tigers.

  1. A∩E ≠ ∅ (some animals are elephants)

  2. E∩T ≠ ∅ (some elephants are tigers)

Conclusion I: A∩T ≠ ∅ (“Some animals are tigers”)

  • The nonempty overlaps A∩E and E∩T might involve different elephants.

  • Example: X ∈ A∩E but X ∉ T; Y ∈ E∩T but Y ∉ A.

  • ⇒ A and T could still be disjoint. I does not follow.

Conclusion II: A∩T = ∅ (“No tiger is an animal”)

  • Contradicts even the idea that elephants (some of which are tigers) lie in A.

  • Since E∩T ≠ ∅ and E⊆A, we get A∩T ≠ ∅.

  • ⇒ II is impossible under the premises.

Answer: Neither I nor II follows.


SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 12

In a certain code language, 'HAMMER' is written as 'ICPQJX'. How will 'WRENCH' be written as in that language?

R + 6 = X
Similarly,
W + 1 = X
R + 2 = T

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 19
S, T and U can complete a piece of work in 40, 48 and 60 days, respectively. They receive Rs. 10,800 to complete the work. They begin the work together but T leaves 2 days before the completion of the work and U leaves 5 days before the completion of the work. S completes the remaining work alone. What is the share of S (in Rs.) from the total money?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 2 - Question 19
Let total work = L.C.M. of (40, 48 and 60) = 240 units
One-day work of S = 240/40 = 6
One-day work of T = 240/48 = 5
One-day work of U = 240/60 = 4
Let the time taken by them to complete the work be x days.
6(x) + 5(x - 2) + 4(x - 5) = 240
⇒ 15x = 240 + 30 = 270
⇒ x = 18
Work done by S = 6 × 18 = 108
Share of S from the total money = = Rs. 4860
This is the correct answer.
