Each question given below consists of a statement, followed by two arguments I and II. You have to decide which of the arguments is a strong argument and which is a weak argument.
Statement:
Should India encourage exports, when most things are insufficient for internal use itself?
Arguments:
(I) Yes. We have to earn foreign exchange to pay for our imports.
(II) No. Even selective encouragement would lead to shortages.
Clearly, India can export only the surplus and that which can be saved after fulfilling its own needs, to pay for its imports. Encouragement to export cannot lead to shortages as it shall provide the resources for imports. So, only argument I holds.
Each question given below consists of a statement, followed by two arguments I and II. You have to decide which of the arguments is a strong argument and which is a weak argument.
Statement:
Should India make efforts to harness solar energy to fulfil its energy requirements?
Arguments:
(I) Yes, Most of the energy sources used at present is exhaustible.
(II) No. Harnessing solar energy requires a lot of capital, which India lacks in.
Clearly, harnessing solar energy will be helpful as it is an inexhaustible resource unlike other resources. So, argument I holds. But argument II is vague as solar energy is the cheapest form of energy.

A, B and C complete a piece of work in 30, 15 and 10 days respectively, while working individually. How much time will they take to complete the same work while working together?
As per the formula,
Required days = (30 * 15 * 10) / (30*15 + 15*10 + 10*30) = 4500 / 900 = 5 days
If 6 men and 8 boys can do a piece of work in 10 days while 26 men and 48 boys can do the same piece of work in 2 days, the time taken by 15 men and 20 boys in doing the same work will be
Let work done by 1 man in 1 day be x
Also, work done by 1 boy in 1 day be y
Then, 6x + 8y = 1/10
Also, 26x + 48y = 1/2
Solving these two equations, we get,
x = 1/100 and y = 1/200
∴ 1-day work of 15 men and 20 boys = 15/100 + 20/200 = 1/4
=> 15 men and 20 boys can do the work in 4 days.
(3x + 4y) / (4x + 3y) = (3x/y + 4) / (4x/y + 3) [Dividing numerator and denominator by y]
= (3*(4/5) + 4) / (4*(4/5) + 3) = 32/31
A triangle is having sides as 50m, 78m and 112m. Find the length of perpendicular on the side 112m.
Here, a = 50m, b = 78m and c = 112m
S = (a + b + c)/2 = (50 + 78 + 112)/2 = 120m
∴ S – a = 120 – 50 = 70m
S – b = 120 – 78 = 42m
S – c = 120 – 112 = 8m
Now, Area = √[s*(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] = √(120 * 70 * 42 * 8) = 1680m2
Also, Area = (base * perpendicular) / 2
1680 = (112 * P) / 2
=> P = 30m
A circle and a rectangle have same perimeter. The side of rectangle are 18cm * 26cm. Find the area of circle.
Perimeter of circle = Perimeter of rectangle
i.e., 2πr = 2*(l + b)
2πr = 2*(18 + 26)
2 * 22/7 * r = 88
=> r = 14
∴ Area of circle = πr2 = π*142 = 616cm2
If the area of a circle decreases by 36%, then the radius of the circle decreases by
A = πr2
The area is decreased by 36%
=> remaining area = 0.64 A
Suppose the remaining radius = x times of r
∴ 0.64A = π(xr)2 = x2πr2
0.64 A = x2 * A
=> x2 = 0.64
i.e., x = 0.8 times of r is remaining
=> Radius decreases by 20%
Find the compound interest on Rs.25625 for 1 year at 16% per annum, compounded half yearly.
Principal (P) = Rs.25625
Rate (r) = 16/2 = 8%
Time = 1 year = 2 half years
∴ A = 25625 * (1 + 8/100)2 = 25625 * (27/25) 2
A = Rs.29889
=> CI = A – P = 29889 – 25625 = Rs.4264
There are 30 students in a class. Average age of first 10 students is 12.5 years and average age of other 20 students is 13.1 years. Find the average age of whole class.
Sum of ages of first 10 students = 10 * 12.5 = 125
And, Sum of ages of other 20 students = 20 * 13.1 = 262
=> Average age of whole class = (125 + 262) / 30 = 387/30 = 12.9 years
The average of 10 numbers is 40.2. Later it is found that two numbers have been wrongly copied. The first added is 18 greater than the actual number and the second number added is 13 instead of 31. Find the correct average.
Sum of 10 numbers = 10 * 40.2 = 402
1st number added is 18 more than actual number, So, 18 must be subtracted
Also, 2nd number added is 13 instead of 31, So, 13 should be subtracted and 31 should be added
=> Actual sum of 10 numbers = 402 – 18 – 13 + 31 = 402
=> Actual average = 402 / 10 = 40.2
If the CP of 15 Pen is equal to SP of 20 pen, Find the loss percent.
Let CP of 1 Pen be x
Since SP of 20 Pen = CP of 15 Pen
i.e., SP of 1 Pen = CP of (15/20) Pen
∴ SP of 1 Pen = (15/20)x = (3/4)x
=> Loss = CP – SP = x - (3/4)x = x/4
=> Loss % = ((x/4)/x) * 100 = 25%
A single discount equal to two consecutive discounts of 20% and 10% is
Let the Marked Price be Rs.x
After a consecutive discount of 20% and 10%,
Selling Price = x * (80/100) * (90/100) = (72/100) * x
=> Single discount = x - (72/100) * x = (28/100) * x = 28%
Here unit digits will repeat as 2, 4, 8, 6 after every four intervals till 60. Next 61 will be 2, 62 will be 4 and 63 will be 8.
So, the unit digit of 263 = 8
(3/7) * (4/5) * (5/3) * (7/5) * 900 = (4/5) * 900 = 720

Q. Total Quantity of Wine in all four mixtures is
60% of 5L + 25% of 4L + 50% of 6L + 75% of 8L = 3 + 1 + 3 + 6 = 13L
If + means –, * means +, ÷ means * and – means ÷, then solve the following
Q. 64 – 8 * 2 ÷ 6 = ?
64 – 8 * 2 ÷ 6 = 64 ÷ 8 + 2 * 6 = 8 + 12 = 20
If + means –, * means +, ÷ means * and – means ÷, then solve the following
Q. 3 * 36 – 6 ÷ 2 + 3 = ?
3 * 36 – 6 ÷ 2 + 3 = 3 + 36 ÷ 6 * 2 – 3 = 3 + 6 * 2 – 3 = 3 + 12 – 3 = 12
A man rows a boat in a river, 12 km upstream in 6 hours and 28 km downstream in 4 hours. Find the speed of the boat in still water.
Downstream speed = 28/4 = 7km/hr
Upstream speed = 12/6 = 2km/hr
Suppose, Speed of Boat in still water = x km/hr
And, Speed of Stream of river = y km/hr
Then, x + y = 7
And, x – y = 2
Solving these two equations, we get,
x = 4.5 and y = 2.5
=> Speed of Boat in still water= x = 4.5km/hr
How long does a train 100 m long running at a speed of 60 km/hr takes to cross another train 150 m long running at a speed of 40 km/hr in the same direction?
Another train is moving in same direction.
Then, Length to be covered = 100 + 150 = 250m
And Relative Speed = 60 – 40 = 20km/hr
=> Required time = 250 / (20 * 5/18) = (250 * 18) / (20 * 5) = 45 secs
Solve the equation and Find the values of x.
27x3 – 54x2 + 36x – 8 = 0
27x3 – 54x2 + 36x – 8 = 0
(3x)3 + 3*(3x)2*(-2) + 3*(3x)*(-2)2 + (-2)3 = 0
(3x – 2)3 = 0 [Using, (a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3]
=> 3x – 2 = 0
Hence, x = 2/3
If Sin Ѳ = 12/13, then find the value of Sec Ѳ + Tan Ѳ
Since, Sin Ѳ = 12/13
Cos2 Ѳ = 1 – Sin2 Ѳ = 1 – (12/13)2
= 1 – (144/169) = 25/169
=> Cos Ѳ = 5/13
Hence, Sec Ѳ = 1/Cos Ѳ = 1/ (5/13) = 13/5
And, Tan Ѳ = Sin Ѳ/Cos Ѳ = (12/13) / ( 5/13) = 12/5
=> Sec Ѳ + Tan Ѳ = 13/5 + 12/5 = 25/5 = 5
