Direction: In the following question, arrange the jumbled words or phrases to make a meaningful sentence.

P. director of the company

Q. Ramesh, the

R. has gone   

S. to Delhi

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 5

We need to check the grammatical or contextual connection of the parts to find the sequence of the parts.

Part Q contains a name.

  • It can be the subject of the sentence.
  • It will be put in the first place.

Since P ends with the article 'the', a noun should come after it.

  • As Q starts with the noun 'director', it will come after P.
  • It will be put in second place.

Part R contains a helping verb 'has'.

  • So it will be the third part of the sentence.

Part S will be the last part.

Thus the correct sequence is QPRS.

The assertion, which states that India is one of the world's fastest-growing economies, is true, In 2018, it overtook China, as the world's fastest-growing economy. The reason is also true, however, it is not an explanation for the assertion, and is merely an independent fact.

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 12

Direction: Read the following statements and find out whether they are sufficient or not to answer the given question.

Find the principal amount.

Statement I: The compound interest obtained when a sum is invested at 25% rate for 2 years is Rs. 250 more than the simple interest obtained when the same amount is invested at a 5% rate for 1 year.

Statement II: A sum gets two more than its triple when it is invested at 3.5% rate compounded annually.

Statement III: The difference of amount on a sum invested at 8% rate compounded annually and semi-annually is Rs. 279.

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 12

Statement I:

Let the principal amount be P.

CI 

CI at 25% for 2 years  ----(1)

SI at 5% rate for 1 year  ---(2)

Now, (1) - (2) = Rs. 250

 = Rs. 250

  Rs. 250

⇒ P = Rs. 

So, statement I is sufficient to answer the question.

Statement II:

Let the principal be P.

Since we have 1 equation 2 variables.

So it cannot be solved.

So, statement II is not sufficient to answer the question.

Statement III:

CI at 8% annually 

CI at 8% semi-annually  

 = Rs. 279

Since we have 1 equation 2 variables.

So it cannot be solved.

So, statement III is not sufficient to answer the question.

∴ The data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II and statement III alone are not sufficient to answer the question.

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 13

Which museum had the second most number of visitors in the four months?

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 13

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 14

Direction: In the following question, there are three statements I, II and III. Read the question carefully and mark your answer according to which statements(s) is/are sufficient to the answer the question.

Find the distance after which the speed of the of the stream changes.

Statement I: A man rowing a boat in downstream and the speed of the boat in still water is four times the speed of the stream.
Statement II: The speed of the stream is 2 kmph which is increased by 2 kmph after travelling some distance thereby reaching the destination earlier by 5 minutes.
Statement III: Total distance covered by the boat is 25 km in downstream.

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 14

Let x be the speed of the boat and y be the speed of the stream.

From statement I, II and III:
Speed of the stream = 2 kmph
Then the speed of the boat = 4 × = 2 = 8kmph
Initial speed of downstream =  = 8 + 2 = 10 kmph
Let after travelling a distance of ‘d’, the speed of the stream increase to 2 kmph.
Then speed of the stream = 4 kmph
And speed of the boat in still water = 4 × 4 = 16kmph
Now increased speed of boat downstream = 16 + 4 = 20 kmph

∴ All the three statements are required to answer the question.

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 15

Direction: Given below are two quantities named A and B. Based on the given information, you have to determine the relation between the two quantities.

Quantity A: A milk-water mixture contained 20% water. How much milk must be added to 160 litres of the mixture, so that the final mixture contains only 10% water?

Quantity B: An alcohol-water mixture is prepared by mixing alcohol and water in the ratio 1 ∶ 6. How much mixture can be prepared using 22 litres of alcohol?

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 15

Quantity A:

Quantity of water in 160 litres of mixture = 20% of 160 

litres

Now, the quantity of water in final mixture remains the same

⇒ 32 = 10% of Quantity of final mixture × Quantity of final mixture

⇒ Quantity of final mixture = 32 × 10 = 320 litres

⇒ Quantity of milk to be added = 320 – 160 = 160 litres

⇒ Quantity A = 160 litres

Quantity B:

Ratio of mixture = 1 ∶ 6

Sum of ratios = 1 + 6 = 7

⇒ Quantity of alcohol in mixture Total quantity of mixture

Total quantity of mixture

⇒ Total quantity of mixture = 22 × 7 = 154 litres

⇒ Quantity B = 154 litres

∴ Quantity A > Quantity B

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 16

There are 3 bags each containing 5 white balls and 3 black balls. Also, there are 2 bags each containing 2 white balls and 4 black balls. A white ball is drawn at random. The probability that this white ball is from a bag of the first group.

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 16

Let E1, E2, A be the events.

E1 be the selecting a bag from the first group.

E2 be the selecting a bag from the second group.

And A be the ball drawn is white.

Since there are 5 bags out of which 3 bags belong to the first group and 2 bags to the second group.

P (E1) =  3/5, P(E2) = 2/5

E1 has already occurred, then a bag containing from the first group is chosen. The bag chosen contains 5 white balls and 3 black balls. 

Therefore the probability of drawing white balls from it is:

P (A/E1) =5/8

Similarly P (A/E2) = 2/6 = 1/3

We have to find P (E1/A) i.e., given that the ball is drawn is white, the probability that it is drawn from a bag of the first group.

By Bayes rule,
 

 

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 17

Person B is 50% more efficient than person A and the time taken by person A alone to do work are 6 days more than that taken by B alone, then in how much time the work will be finished if both A and B together started working?

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 17

Since B is 50% more efficient than A.

Ratio of efficiency of A to B = 100 ∶ 150 = 2 ∶ 3

The ratio of time taken by A to B to finish the work =  = 3 ∶ 2

Let the time taken by A and B alone to do work be 3x and 2x respectively.

According to the question∶

3x - 2x = 6

⇒ x = 6

Time taken by A and B alone to do work is 18 days and 12 days respectively.

The efficiency of A and B when they work together = 1/8 + 1/12 = 5/36

The required time is taken when both A and B together started working = 36/5 = 7.2 days

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 18

In the figure given below, MN is a tangent to the circle with center O. If ∠NPQ = 55o, find the value of ∠POQ 

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 18

As we know, the tangent at a point on the circle is right angle to the radius

⇒ ∠OPN = 90° 

⇒ ∠OPQ = ∠OPN - ∠NPQ = 90° - 55° = 35°

Considering ΔOPQ,

∵ OP = OQ = radius of circle

⇒ ∠OQP = ∠OPQ = 35°

∴ ∠POQ = 180° - (35° + 35°)

= 180° - 70°

= 110°

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 19

In an examination, a student secured 25% marks and failed by 30 marks. In the same examination another student secured 35% marks and got 15 marks more than minimum marks to pass. The maximum marks in the examination was:

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 19

Given:

A student got 25% marks and failed by 30 marks.

Another student got 35% marks and got 15 marks more.

Let total marks be x.

So, marks of A = 0.25x

Passing marks = 0.25x + 30      ----(i)

Marks of B = 0.35x

Passing marks = 0.35x – 15      ----(ii)

Now, equating (i) and (ii)

0.25x + 30 = 0.35x – 15

⇒ 0.1x = 45

⇒ x = 450

∴ The maximum marks in the examination is 450.

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 20

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 21

A man spends 75% of his income. If his income increases by 28% and his expenditure increases by 20%, then what is the increase or decrease percentage in his savings?

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 21

Given:

Man spends 75% of his income.

Income increases by 28% 

Expenditure increases by 20%

Formula Used:

Saving = Income – Expenditure 

Calculation:

Let the Income of a man = 100

Expenditure = 75% of 100

⇒ (75/100) × 100 = 75

Saving = Income – Expenditure 

Initial Saving ⇒ 100 – 75 = 25      ----(1)

Now as per the question,

His income increased by 28%

His new income = Old income + 28% of Old income

⇒ His new income = (128/100) × 100 = 128

Similarly, his expenditure increased by 20%

His new expenditure = (120/100) × 75

⇒ His new expenditure = 90

Saving(new) = Income(new) – Expenditure(new)

Saving(new) = 128 - 90 = 38  ----(2)

Now, % increase in savings =  × 100   ----(from 1 and 2)

⇒ 13 × 4 = 52%

∴ The % increase in saving is 52%

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 22

A and B invested Rs. 24000 and Rs. 8000 for a period of 2 year. After 2 year, they earned Rs. 48000. What will be the shares of A and B out of this earning?

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 22

Given:
A's share : B's share = A's investment : B's investment =24000: 8000=3 : 1.
Let be A's share = 3x and B's share = 1x
According to the question
3x + x = 48000
⇒ 4x = 48000
⇒ x = 12000
Put the value of x in A & B Share of B
= Rs .12000
Share of A=3 X = 3 x 12000
= Rs .36000
∴ Share of A and B is Rs. 36,000 & Rs. 12,000

MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 23

In ΔABC, ∠B is 25° more than ∠A and ∠C is 5° more than four time ∠A. The biggest angle is _____.

Detailed Solution for MAT Mock Test - 5 - Question 23

Given,
∠B is more than ∠A by 25°.
∠C is 5° more than four time ∠A.
As we know,
Sum of all three angles of a triangle is 180°.
Let ∠A be x.
∠B = x + 25°
∠C = 4x + 5°
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
⇒ x + x + 25° + 4x + 5° = 180°
⇒ 6x + 30° = 180°
⇒ 6x = 180° - 30°
⇒ 6x = 150°
⇒ x = 150°/6
⇒ x = 25°
∠A = 25°
∠B = 25° + 25° = 50°
∠C = 4 x 25° + 5° = 100° + 5° = 105°
.. The biggest angle is 105°.
