The given Venn diagram represents results of a class of students:
The triangle represents students who scored 85% and above in Maths, the circle represents students who scored 85% and above in English, the rectangle represents students who scored 85% and above in Science, and the square represents students who scored 85% and above in Social Sciences. The numbers given in the diagram represent the number of students in that particular category.

How many students scored 85% and above in all the subjects?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 5
The triangle represents students who scored 85% and above in Maths.
The circle represents students who scored 85% and above in English.
The rectangle represents students who scored 85% and above in Science.
The square represents students who scored 85% and above in Social Sciences.

It is clear from the above diagram that 5 students scored 85% and above in all the subjects as 5 is the number that belongs to the shaded region which is common to all the 4 geometric entities.
Hence, option (3) is the correct answer.
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 6

Directions: In the question, a statement is given followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to consider the statement to be true even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts and then decide which of the given conclusions, if any, follow(s) from the given statement.
Statement: To be happy in life, you should solve your problems rather than trying to avoid them.
Conclusions:
I. Life will be dull if you don't have problems.
II. To avoid problems, you should have solutions ready.
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 6
It is mentioned in the statement that to live a happy life, one needs to have the solutions to the problems. Avoiding is not solving, so conclusion II doesn't follow. Conclusion I is totally unrelated to the statement in question, as 'dullness' as mentioned in it is nowhere talked about in the question statement.

The average of 27 numbers is zero. Out of them, how many may be greater than zero, at the most?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 18
Average of 27 numbers = 0
Sum of 27 numbers (0 × 27) = 0
It is quite possible that 26 of these numbers are positive and their sum is 'a'. If the 27th number is (-a), the average will be zero.
So, option 3 is correct.

If a + b + c = 8 and ab + bc + ca = 20, then a3 + b3 + c3 - 3abc is equal to
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 19
We have the formula
a3 + b3 + c3 - 3abc = (a + b + c)(a2 + b2 + c2 - ab - bc - ac)
We can write it as follows.
a3 + b3 + c3 - 3abc = (a + b + c)(a2 + b2 + c2 - (ab + bc + ac))
Now, we have
a + b + c = 8
ab + bc + ac = 20
Putting values, we get
a3 + b3 + c3 - 3abc = 8(a2 + b2 + c2 - 20) .... (1)
Now, we also know that
(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2(ab + bc + ac)
Putting values, we get
82 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2(20)
a2 + b2 + c2 = 64 - 40
a2 + b2 + c2 = 24
So, put this in equation (1).
We have
a3 + b3 + c3 - 3abc
= 8(24 - 20)
= 32
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 20
Save
Sonu saves 15% of her income. If her income increases by 20% and she still saves the same amount as before, then what is the percentage increase in her expenditure? (correct to one decimal place)
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 20
Let the initial income of Sonu be Rs. 100.
Savings = 15% = Rs. 15
Expenditure = Rs. (100 - 15) = Rs. 85
Income after increment = Rs. = Rs. 120
Savings = Rs. 15
Expenditure = Rs. 120 - Rs. 15 = Rs. 105
Increment in expenditure = Rs. 105 - Rs. 85 = Rs. 20
Percentage increment in expenditure = = 23.52%
Hence, answer option 2 is correct.
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 21

What number should be added to each of the numbers 55, 100, 65 and 116, so that the resulting numbers are in continued proportion?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 21
Let number added = x
For continued proportion of a, b, c, d,
a/b = c/d
Then,
(55 + x)/(100 + x) = (65 + x)/(116 + x)
or, 6380 + 171x + (x)2 = 6500 + 165x + (x)2
or, 6x = 120 (By solving the above equation)
or, x = 20

The average of twelve numbers is 45.5. The average of the first four numbers is 41.5 and that of the next five numbers is 48. The 10th number is 4 more than the 11th number and 9 more than the 12th number. What is the average of the 10th and 12th numbers?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 24
The average of 12 numbers = 45.5
Sum of 12 numbers = average × number of numbers = 45.5 × 12 = 546
The average of the first four numbers = 41.5
Sum of first four numbers = 41.5 × 4 = 166
The average of next five numbers = 48
Sum of next five numbers = 48 × 5 = 240
Sum of the first 9 numbers = sum of first four numbers + sum of next five numbers = 166 + 240 = 406
10th number = 4 + 11th number ------ (1)
10th number = 9 + 12th number ------ (2)
Sum of the first 9 numbers + 10th number + 11th number + 12th number = 546
406 + 10th number + 10th number - 4 + 10th number - 9 = 546
3 × 10th number = 546 - 406 + 4 + 9
3 × 10th number = 153
10th number = 51
From eqn. (1),
12th number = 10th number - 9 = 51 - 9 = 42
The average of the 10th and 12th numbers = (51 + 42)/2 = 46.5
Hence, answer option 1 is correct.

If a2 + b2 - c2 = 0, then the value of is:
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 25
The given expression is 2(a6 + b6 - c6)/(3a2b2c2).
Or 2((a2)3 + (b2)3 - (c2)3 )/(3a2b2c2)
Now, it is given that a2 + b2 - c2 = 0 or a2 + b2 = c2
So, plugging in the value of c2 as a2 + b2, the given expression becomes 2((a2)3 + (b2)3 - (a2 + b2)3)/(3a2b2(a2 + b2))
Or 2((a2)3 + (b2)3 - ((a2)3 + (b2)3 + 3a2b2(a2 + b2)))/(3a2b2(a2 + b2))
Or, 2((a2)3 + (b2)3 - (a2)3 - (b2)3 - 3a2b2(a2 + b2))/(3a2b2(a2 + b2))
= 2(-3(a2b2(a2 + b2)))/(3a2b2(a2 + b2))
= -2
Hence, answer option 2 is correct.

The difference between compound interest and simple interest on Rs. p at 7.5% per annum for 2 years is Rs. 45. What is the value of p?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 9 - Question 28

Rate of interest = 7.5%
Time = 2 yr
Difference between CI and SI = Rs. 45
Let sum = Rs. 100x

Compound interest = Amount - principal

Compound interest = 115.5625x - 100x = Rs. 15.5625x
Difference between CI and SI = 15.5625x - 15x = 0.5625x
According to the question, it is Rs. 45.
So, x = 45/0.5625 = 80
Then, sum = 100x = 100 × 80 = Rs. 8000
Therefore, p = Rs.8000
