The suitable title for the passage can be “Giving employees a feel-good factor". It is so because in this passage the focus is on the employees satisfaction regarding to his workplace.

We can refer to these lines of passage-

"Keeping employees happy, motivated, and on the payroll is one of the key concerns to businesses these days because it's an open market for top talent."

"There are perks other than monetary gains or raise in pay package which can make employees feel happy and satisfied and the feel good factor."

Refer to, “Keeping employees happy, motivated, and on the payroll is one of the key concerns to businesses these days because it's an open market for top talent.” Therefore criticizing the employee's performance can be nowhere near to the asked question.

The error lies in the third part of the sentence. The subject here is “neither of them” which is singular; thus, the singular verb “was” should be used with it.

The correct order of the sentence is- They’re scattered throughout the old town and are not the traditional Christmas lights.

Madhav left in a hurry after eating a bowl of porridge, and an orange.

'A' is used with a singular countable noun that is random in nature and has a consonant sound.

'An' is used with a singular countable noun that is random in nature and has a vowel sound.

'The' refers to a particular object of which the reader is aware of. 

• The words 'hurry' and 'bowl' start with a consonant, therefore an article 'a' is used.
• The word 'orange' starts with a vowel, therefore, an article 'an' is used.

Therefore, the word 'a, a, an' should be used.

The correct sentence- The behaviour of resident spiders towards pirate spiders and their own prey is quite different

• Here, 'is quite different' should be used instead of 'are quite different'.
• ‘Behaviour’ is a singular noun, hence, the verb must also be singular to maintain the subject-verb agreement. Therefore, ‘are’ must be replaced with ‘is’ to form a grammatically correct sentence.

The logic follows here is:

The second word is the activity of the first word.

Doctor's activity is to do a Diagnosis of the patient.

Similarly,

Judge's activity is to make Judgement on a case.

Here the logic is:

Thus, 'JKV' is the correct answer.

Quantity A -

Selling price of 4 bananas = Rs. 18

(100 - 25)% of Cost price of 4 bananas = 18

of CP of 4 bananas = 18

CP of 4 bananas = 24

CP of 8 bananas = 48

Selling price of 8 bananas (intended for 15% profit) = 48 × (100 + 15) % = Rs. 55.2

Quantity B -

Area of square = side × side = 144 sq.cm

Area of semicircles cut

= 25 × 3.14 = 78.5 sq.cm

Remaining area = 144 - 78.5 = 65.5 sq.cm

So, Quantity A < Quantity B

Profit percentage
Profit percentage of
= 25% profit
Profit percentage of
= - 16.67% loss
Profit percentage of
= 11.11% profit
Profit percentage of
= - 20% loss
Profit percentage of
= - 20% loss
Therefore, A has the highest profit.
Hence, the correct option is (A).

Percentage of growth rate from 1995 to 2015:

Given:

For Statement I: Time = 6.25 years

For Statement II: Time = 2 years

Amount = 6728

Principal = 5000

For Statement I: Let sum = x

Rate = y%

⇒ x = x × 6.25 × y%

⇒ y = 16%

Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.

For Statement II:

Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.

Thus, the data in statement I alone or in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, the correct option is (C).

In group B, 1 man’s 1 day work = 1/30 

In group B, 1 woman’s 1 day work = 1/15

In group C, 1 man’s 1 day work = 1/20 

In group C, 1 woman’s 1 day work = 1/25 

When one man and one woman from group B and C work together,

Their 1 day work = 1/30 + 1/15 + 1/20 + 1/25 = 19/100 

∴ In one day, they will complete = 19/100 × 100 = 19% of the work

Given-

Part of the tank filled by the first pipe in 1 hr = 1/8 

Part of the tank emptied by the second pipe in 1 hr = 1/5

∴ Part of the tank emptied when both the pipes are opened together

= 3/40

∴ 3/40 part of the tank is emptied in 1hr.

∴ 5/8 of the tank will be emptied in hr

hr

Given:

The cost price of the article A is 20% more than that of B.

 A is sold for Rs. 1,800 at a loss of 20%

Let cost price of B be Rs. a .

Cost price of A = Rs. 120a/100

A is sold for Rs. 1,800 at a loss of 20%

⇒ Cost price of A is 1800 × 100/80

Accordingly,

Cost price of A = 1875 × 120/100 = Rs. 2250

Total cost price of A and B = 2250 + 1875 = Rs. 4125

Total selling price = 4125 × 120/100 = Rs. 4950

∴ Selling price of B = 4950 - 1800 = Rs. 3150

Let CE and DE be the bisectors of ∠C and ∠D respectively.

Then,

In ΔDEC , we have
⇒ ∠1 + ∠2 + ∠CED = 180^∘ [Sum of angles of a triangle]
⇒ ∠ CED = 180^∘ − (∠1 + ∠2) ...(i)
Again, the sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360^∘.

Given,

BP = AC = 7 cm and BC = 10 cm

As we know,

Two tangents to a circle from the same point are always equal.

∴ BP = BR (Tangents to the circle from the same point B)

So,

BR = 7 cm

⇒ PC = BC – BP = 10 – 7 = 3 cm

Now,

QC = PC (Tangents to the circle from the same point C)

So,

QC = 3 cm

⇒ AQ = AC – QC = 7 – 3 = 4 cm

Now,

AR = AQ (Tangents to the circle from the same point A)

So,

AR = 4 cm

⇒ AB = AR + BR = 4 + 7 = 11 cm

∴ The length of AB is 11 cm.

The correct pairs:
