Directions: Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given beside.
A company has planned a trip. The company has 4200 employees. 72% of the employees registered for the trip. The ratio of male and female employees registered for the trip is 7: 5. Out of them, 75% of the employees have chosen the company transport services for the trip and rest decided to use their own vehicle. On the trip day, 25% of those who have chosen for company transport, went on the trip by their own vehicles for some reasons. The ratio of male and female employees who came by their own transport is 5: 4. Initially, the company had booked 57 buses with 40 seat capacity in each.

Q. Find the difference between the total number of male and female employees who came to the trip by their own transport?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 3

Total number of employees in the company = 4200
72% of the employees registered for the trip.
So, the number of employees registered for the trip

Out of them, 75% of the employees have chosen the company transport services for the trip.
Then, the number of employees registered for the company transport

So, the number of employees did not registered for the company transport


25% of them went to the trip by their own transport for some reasons.
Then, the number of employees went to the trip by their own in spite of registering for the company transport


So, the total number of employees went to trip by their own transport = 756 + 567 = 1323

The ratio of male and female employees who came by their own transport is 5 : 4.

So, the reqd. difference = 
Hence, option C is correct.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 4

In covering a distance of 30 km, Arun takes 2 hours more than Anil. If Arun doubles his speed, then he would take 1 hour less than Anil. What is Arun's speed?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 4

Let Anil takes x hrs.
⇒ Arun takes x+2

If Arun doubles the speed, he will take x-1 hrs
⇒ He needs 3 hours less.
∵ Double speed means half time.
∴ Half of the time required by Arun to cover 30 km = 3 hours

⇒ Time required by Arun to cover 30 km = 6 hour
Thus, Arun's speed = 30/6 = 5 km/h

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 5

John and Dani go for an interview for two vacancies. The probability for the selection of John is 1/3 and whereas the probability for the selection of Dani is 1/5. What is the probability that only one of them is selected?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 5

The correct answer is B as 
probability of one of them being selected, imply either John must be selected and Dani must not or Dani must be selected and John must not.
The probability of John's selection is 1/3, so that of his disselection is (1-1/3) = 2/3.
The probability of Dani's selection is 1/5, so that of his disselection is (1-1/5) = 4/5.
The probability of John's selection and Dani's disselection is 1/3 x 4/5 = 4/15.
The probability of Dani's selection and John's disselection is 2/3 x 1/5 = 2/15.
So the required probability is 4/15 + 2/15 = 6/15 = 2/5.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 12

Direction: In each of the questions given below, a sentence is given with two blanks. From the given options, choose the one that gives the correct combination of words that fit in the blanks.

RTO officials have taken _______________ of the video and plan a massive drive from this week to _______________  out the rogues.

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 12

Option B: ‘Taken concern’ is grammatically wrong and does not fit.

Option C: Action should be followed by ‘on’ and not ‘of’ so even this option is ruled out.

Option D: The correct phrase is taken issue with the video which means to have a problem with the video. Hence this is incorrect.

Option E: This option may appear correct, but the word remove is self-sufficient and does not need to be followed by ‘out’.

Option A: To take cognizance means to take notice of something. Weed out means to take out or remove something.

Hence, option A is the right answer.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 13

Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

India’s e-commerce sector, poised to grow four times to $150 billion by 2022, is still a work in progress when it comes to safeguarding customer interest. Consumers are still compelled to take wild chances in online transactions. There is little they can do if their calls go wrong. Returns and reimbursements are risky and cumbersome. There are no authentic ways to figure out if product reviews, ratings or even discounts are genuine. So, it is heartening to see the government coming up with a set of guidelines to protect interests of consumers. The guidelines released last week by the Consumer Affairs Ministry in this regard emphasise that an e-commerce entity shall not influence the price of the goods or services, adopt any unfair or deceptive methods to influence transactional decisions of consumers or falsely represent themselves as consumers and post reviews about goods and services. The guidelines on returns and refunds favour consumers. The message seems simple: If online companies want to dupe consumers to earn extra bucks, they’re in trouble.

Clearly, the Ministry’s thinking seems to be in line with the way the Centre’s approach to regulating the fast-growing e-commerce sector. It is, however, worth considering whether the Department of Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (then DIPP) will strike the right balance between regulating consumer interests and encouraging innovation and investment, without discriminating against a particular class of investors. Now marketplace entities won’t be able to buy more than 25 per cent from a single vendor, give discounts on products or sell the goods of the companies in which there is equity participation by the marketplace entity. The changes had irked foreign e-tailers who felt the rules would _____ (A) _____ their business models and could cost them time and money. But anecdotal evidence does not entirely seem to bear that out.

The DPIIT is also framing an e-commerce policy and, like the Consumer Affairs Ministry, has put up the draft for comments. The draft talks about the country retaining ownership and control of data generated within the country, rigorous monitoring of cross-border imports, placing the responsibility of consumer protection on the intermediary and addressing the issue of piracy. That said, the element of indecision over data localisation requirements is still a worry. Attempts made by both the DPIIT and the MeitY in the e-commerce policy and the data protection policy, respectively, to make a case for storage of personal data locally (along with the RBI in the case of payment systems) have predictably resulted in a lot of protests from the EU and US entities. While the Centre is certainly on a sound wicket here, it should take a call soon — without succumbing to the recent tendency to over-regulate business.

Q. Which among the following is correct regarding the opinion of the government on the storage of data, as stated in the passage?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 13

It is very clearly stated in the passage that the government has been recommended by the DPIIT that the data pertaining to the electronic transactions should be stored within the country only and no foreign intervention should be there in this regard. There should not be any involvement of anybody from other countries or foreign companies in the whole thing. Coming to the given options, we can see that Option C gives us the correct information whereas the rest can be eliminated for being out of context.

This makes Option C the correct choice among the given options.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 19

Recently discovered gravitational lensing around certain proximate stars stronglysuggests that the nine planets of our solar system are a common phenomenonin the universe rather than developing incidentally from a unique galactic phenomenon several billion years ago.

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 16 - Question 19

The first thing you should consider here is whether to use rather or instead. Instead does not have an element of choice in it, merely an element of replacement. You would say, for example: I went instead of Jack. You would also say: He is a weak man rather than a timid man. Because this is not a case of replacement, you need the word ‘rather’. That leaves us with choices A, B and C as possible answers. A correct comparison is required. The planets are a ‘phenomenon... rather then a type’. You are correctly comparing two nouns so A can be eliminated. ‘Incidental of’ is an incorrect structure. ‘Incidental to’ is correct. Therefore only B is eliminates all these errors and is the correct answer.
