EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 7 - Bank Exams MCQ

It is not mentioned whether all the boys or a proportion of them play football.

So Option D is correct

I, II and IV are true

Just introducing Gross Happiness Index (GHI) is highly unlikely to greatly help India in becoming a prosperous nation. Thus, I is a weak argument. II is vague and unclear on the point of GHI. Thus, even II is a weak argument.

I doesn’t provide any argument, but merely restate the Statement differently. Thus, I is weak. Just because the media is the fourth pillar of democracy doesn’t mean that it should operate without legitimate and rightful restrictions on it. Thus, II is also weak.

The code for every word consists of three elements.
1. Immediate successor of the last letter of the word
2. Symbol is assigned according to the first letter of the word.

First letter is coded as follows:

3. The number which is one less than the number of letters in the word
So, code for linguist is U%7.
Code for paraglide is F*8.
Code for emperor is S^6.

Following the common explanation, we can see that F sits third to the right of E.
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
Final arrangement:

Common Explanation:
References:
H sits third to the right of C who is not facing outside.
E sits second to the left of C who is not the immediate neighbor of B.
B is the immediate neighbor of E and both are facing same direction.
Inferences:
From 1st reference it is clear that C is facing inside and H will sit third to the right of C.
2nd and 3rd references mean that E will sit at a gap of 1 to the left of C and B will not sit with C.

References:
Immediate neighbor of H are facing same direction to each other but opposite direction with respect to H who is facing inside.
B is the immediate neighbor of E and both are facing same direction
B sits third to the left of A and both are facing opposite directions to each other
Inferences:
Immediate neighbor of H are facing same direction to each other but opposite direction with respect to H who is facing inside. It means both the neighbors will face outside.
B sits third to the left of A and both are facing opposite directions to each other. It means B faces inside and A faces outside. A
B is the immediate neighbor of E and both are facing same direction. Hence both E and B face inside.

References:
There are equal numbers of person facing inside and outside direction. Only three people sit between P and R.
H sits to the immediate right of D
F sits second to the left of G.
Inferences:
Hence immediate neighbors of C will face outside as only four people face inside.
H will sit on immediate right of D and C will be the neighbor of F and G.

Hence, we get the final arrangement.

Clearly, if H faces the south direction, we need to make the circle move 180 degrees anti-clockwise and in such a case, B will also be moving 180 degrees anti-clockwise and in new arrangement B will be facing East direction.

Since III mentions that Z is the youngest,
it clearly indicates that each one of L, M, N and Y is older than Z.

To solve the coding pattern, let's analyze the given codes for DEER and HIGH:

• DEER = 12215
• HIGH = 5654

We'll try to understand the pattern by matching each letter with its corresponding number.

For DEER:

• D -> 1
• E -> 2
• E -> 2
• R -> 5

For HIGH:

• H -> 5
• I -> 6
• G -> 5
• H -> 4

Let's try to find the pattern or rule:

1. D, E, R in DEER:

   • D = 1
   • E = 2
   • R = 5

2. H, I, G, H in HIGH:

   • H = 5 (H = 5 for HIGH, but H = 5 and 4 in DEER and HIGH respectively)
   • I = 6
   • G = 5
   • H = 4

Now, let's find the code for HEEL:

• H -> 5 (from HIGH)
• E -> 2 (from DEER)
• E -> 2 (from DEER)
• L -> We need to determine L's code

Since L hasn't appeared yet, we need to figure out its code. Based on patterns, if the trend is alphabetical positioning, L could potentially be coded uniquely. Let's explore the pattern in numbers:

• H = 5
• E = 2
• E = 2
• L = ?

Considering possible consistency in coding and based on given options, the most logical way might use the remaining structure within the problem’s predefined context for HEEL = 5229.

So, the most likely answer should be:

4. 5229

Taking A = 1, B = 2,………,T = 20,……….., Z = 26, we have :
AT = A × T = 1 × 20 = 20, BAT = B × A × T = 2 × 1 × 20 = 40.
So, CAT = C × A × T = 3 × 1 × 20 = 60.

Total age of family 3 years ago = 17x5 = 85 years

Total age of family now = 17x 6 = 102 years

Total age of family excluding the child now = (85 + 15) = 100 years

Age of child = 2 years

3x – x = 32
x = 16
1/16 + 1/48 = 4/48
Time taken to fill the tank = 48/4 = 12 minutes

Required time = y(1-(t/x)) = 27(1-(8/24))= 18 minutes

Alternate terms of the given series form two different series.
First, 2, 3, 4, 5 and the second 0 , 1, 2, 3 .
Hence last term will be 2.

Pattern  is (1³ – 1) ; (2³ – 2) ; (3³ – 3) and so on.
Hence last term will be (5³ – 5) = 120. 

Let the quantity of milk in one vessel be x litres.
In 10 vessels, quantity of milk = 10x litres
For Rs. 5 per litre, total cost of milk = 10x × 5 = Rs. 50x
For Rs. 6 per litre, total cost of milk = 10x × 6 = Rs. 60x
From the given information, we can say that
60x - 50x = 350
⇒ 10x = 350
⇒ x = 35 litres

Total number of boys in all the schools = 2000 + 1700 + 2200 + 1500 + 2100 + 1200 = 10700
Total number of girls in all the schools = 1700 + 2300 + 1600 + 1900 + 2400 + 2000 = 11900
Required difference = 11900 – 10700 = 1200
Hence, option (A) is correct.

As given in I and II, R studies in school D and J studies in school F. So, T does not study in school D or school F. Thus, T studies in any one of the schools B, C or E.

From I, we conclude that Divya's mother is Shaloo's aunt or Divya is Shaloo's cousin.
Now, Divya's grandfather's only child is Divya's parent. So, from II, we conclude that Shaloo and Divya are daughters of the same parents i.e. Divya is Shaloo's sister.

The context is about Russian attempt to expand their region. Sentence 4 is the leading sentence. It introduces Russia - a growing empire. The words 'begun their expansion' in 2 link with 'as a growing empire' in sentence 4. The word 'explorers' in 5 links with 'expedition' in 2. 'Fur-trading interests' in 3 refer to 'fur trade' in 5. So, 3 follows 5. The sequence becomes: 4-2-5-3. The explorers had excited the Russians for fur trade in Alaska but there was conflict of interest. Russians also found it difficult to produce food there (sentence 6) and the alternative is provided in sentence 1 (reasoned that... California could serve both as a source of food). So, the final sequence becomes: 4-2-5-3-6-1.

Option A- Slogans is not correct to be used in the first blank, as how come slogans grow? Moreover, it would grammatically be incorrect as with singular verb “has”, singular subject is needed here.

Option B – Efficient is grammatically wrong as it cannot be preceded by the vowel 'a' as 'Efficient' starts with a vowel sound. 

Option C- Both the words fit the blank absolutely.   'Clamour' means 'A strongly expressed protest or demand from a large number of people'.

Hence option C is correct. 

The given paragraph is regarding the nature of him and his family members. It is regarding the fact that all his family members are very much superficial in nature and what is seen from outside is not at all correct in this case.

Coming to the given words, stupendous implies extremely impressive whereas spurious implies something false. Both these words are not making any sense for all the three blanks at the same time and hence they can be eliminated from consideration. Coming to substantial, it refers to something significant and this is also not correct for the context. There is only one word that fits in all these three statements that make the paragraph meaningful and that is superficial. 

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

Refer to, “Tatkal fares have become “excessive”, said almost three-fourth (74 per cent) of the 8,165 people who answered a query on their experience with Tatkal ticket fares on LocalCircles, a citizen interaction platform. Almost one-fifth polled found the charges “reasonable”. Five per cent even found the charges “quite low”.
It is quite clear that only 5% candidates have given the opinion that the tatkal fares in the railways are very low.
Among the given options, only option D is correct since it gives the correct data regarding the results of the survey.

This makes option D the correct choice among the given options.

Refer to, “The BIS, which sets the quality regulations for various products from gold to bottled water, on Friday called a meeting of industry bodies to “persuade them to be part of the process and give their inputs.”

It is clear from the above passage that the Bureau of Indian Standards wants the industry bodies to be part of the process of standardization drive to be launched by the organization regarding the services sectors. The organization wants the industry bodies to share their views regarding the benchmark that will be created by the BIS.

Among the given options, statements B and C are incorrect since they are about asking the industry bodies to take care of the customer complaints in any way possible whereas the passage is about the BIS developing new benchmark for standards. Statement D is also not correct since it is completely irrelevant in the given context.

Only statement A implies the appeal that was made by the BIS to the industry bodies.

This makes option A the correct choice among the given options.
