Question: What will be the total weight of 10 poles, each of the same weight ?
Statements:
I.One-fourth of the weight of each pole is 5 kg.
II.The total weight of three poles is 20 kilograms more than the total weight of two poles.

Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 2

From I, we conclude that weight of each pole = (4x5) kg = 20 kg.

So, total weight of 10 poles = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.

From II, we conclude that:

Weight of each pole = (weight of 3 poles) - (weight of 2 poles) = 20 kg.

So, total weight of 10 pojes = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.

Question: How many children does M have ?
Statements:
I.H is the only daughter of X who is wife of M.
II.K and J are brothers of M.

Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 3

The correct answer is:

d) I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient

Explanation:

  • Statement I: H is the only daughter of X, who is the wife of M. This means M has at least one child (H, the daughter). Therefore, this statement alone is sufficient to answer that M has one child.

  • Statement II: K and J are brothers of M. This information provides no direct insight into how many children M has, as it talks about M's brothers, not M's children. Therefore, this statement alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, Statement I alone is sufficient, while Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 4
Save

Given below is a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements is sufficient to answer the question. You should use the given data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose between the possible answers.

Is a number T divisible by 144?

I. T is a multiple of 216.

II. T is divisible by square of cube of 2.
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 4

From statement I:

If T is multiple of 216, then T can be 216 which is not divisible by 144 or T can be 432 which is divisible by 144. So, divisibility of T with 144 cannot be uniquely established.

∴ Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statement II:

T is divisible by square of cube of 2.

Square of cube of 2 = (2 × 2 × 2)2 = 64

⇒ T is a multiple of 64.

So, T can be 192 which is not divisible by 144 or T can be 576 which is divisible by 144. So, divisibility of T with 144 cannot be uniquely established.

∴ Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statements I and II together:

T is divisible by square of cube of 2.

Square of cube of 2 = (2 × 2 × 2)2 = 64

⇒ T is a multiple of 64.

Also, T is a multiple of 216.

⇒ T will be a multiple of LCM(216, 64).

⇒ T will be a multiple of 1728.

We know, 1728 = 144 x 12.

If T is divisible by 1728, it would be divisible by all its factors.

∴ T will be divisible by 144.

∴ Using both the statements together, we can answer the given question.

Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 5

Directions to Solve: In each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and

Question: How much was the total sale of the company?
Statements:
I. The company sold 8000 units of product A each costing Rs. 25.
II. This company has no other product line.
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 5

From I, total sale of product A = Rs. (8000 x 25) = Rs. 200000.

From II, we know that the company deals only in product A.

This implies that sale of product A is the total sale of the company, which is Rs. 200000.

So Option C is correct

Question: The last Sunday of March, 2006 fell on which date ?
Statements:
I.The first Sunday of that month fell on 5th.
II.The last day of that month was Friday.
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 6

From I, we conclude that 5th, 12th, 19th and 26th of March, 2006 were Sundays.

So, the last Sunday fell on 26th.

From II, we conclude that 31st March, 2006 was Friday. Thus, 26th March, 2006 was the last Sunday of the month.

So Option C is correct

Statements:
I. R's sister J has married Ts brother L, who is the only son of his parents.
II.K is the only daughter of L and J.
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 9

From I, we know that L is T's brother and J's husband. Since L is the only son of his parents, T is L's sister.

From II, we know that K is L's daughter.

Question: How is X related to Y ?
Statements:
I.Y says, "I have only one brother".
II.X says, "I have only one sister".
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 14

To determine how X is related to Y, let's analyze the given statements:

Statements:

  • I. Y says, "I have only one brother."
  • II. X says, "I have only one sister."

Analysis:

Statement I: Y says, "I have only one brother."

  • This statement alone does not provide any information about the relationship between X and Y. We do not know who Y's brother is, nor do we know if X is related to Y.

Statement II: X says, "I have only one sister."

  • This statement alone does not provide any information about the relationship between X and Y. We do not know who X's sister is, nor do we know if Y is related to X.

Combining Statements I and II:

  • Even when combining both statements, we do not have enough information to determine the relationship between X and Y. We need more information about the family structure or a direct statement about how X and Y are related.

Therefore, the data given in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.

Answer: 4. Neither I nor II is sufficien

Question: How many children are there in the row of children facing North?
Statements:
I. Vishakha who is fifth from the left end is eighth to the left of Ashish who is twelfth from the right end.
II. Rohit is fifth to the left of Nisha who is seventh from the right end and eighteenth from the left end.
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 16

Since 8th to the left of 12th from the right is 20th from the right, so from I, we know that Vishakha is 5th from left and 20th from right i.e. there are 4 children to the left and 19 to the right of Vishakha. So, there are (4 + 1 + 19) i.e. 24 children in the row.

From II, Nisha is 7th from right and 18th from left end of the row.

So, there are (6 + 1 + 17) = 24 children in the row.

II.C is heavier than only T.
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 21

From I, we have: B > T, B > C, V > B. Thus, V is heavier than each one of B, T and C. But V is not the heaviest. So, E is the heaviest.

Thus, we have the order. E>V>B>T>C or E>V>B>C>T. Clearly, B is third from the top.

So Option A is correct

Question: Which word in the code language means 'flower' ?
Statements:
I.'de fu la pane' means 'rose flower is beautiful' and 'la quiz' means 'beautiful tree'.
II.'de la chin' means 'red rose flower' and 'pa chin' means 'red tea'.
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 22

To determine which word in the code language means 'flower,' let's analyze the statements.

Statements

Statement I:
'de fu la pane' means 'rose flower is beautiful'
'la quiz' means 'beautiful tree'

Statement II:
'de la chin' means 'red rose flower'
'pa chin' means 'red tea'

Analysis

Statement I Analysis:

  • From 'de fu la pane' = 'rose flower is beautiful', we can identify the words for 'rose', 'flower', 'is', and 'beautiful'.
  • From 'la quiz' = 'beautiful tree', we can identify the words for 'beautiful' and 'tree'.
  • Thus, we have the common word 'la' which appears in both statements, indicating it could be 'beautiful'.

Combining this, we can deduce:

  • 'de' might be 'rose' or 'flower'
  • 'fu' might be 'rose' or 'flower'
  • 'pane' might be 'is' or 'beautiful'
  • 'quiz' means 'tree'
  • 'la' means 'beautiful'

From these deductions, 'flower' can be identified if we compare it with 'de' or 'fu'. But we do not have enough information to exactly determine which one is 'flower'.

Statement II Analysis:

  • From 'de la chin' = 'red rose flower', we have:
    • 'de' = 'red'
    • 'la' = 'rose' (by elimination, because 'chin' has to be 'flower')
  • From 'pa chin' = 'red tea':
    • 'pa' = 'tea'
    • 'chin' = 'red'

Here, 'chin' seems to be 'red', and 'de' is 'flower' which is consistent with the given data.

Since 'chin' = 'red' and 'de' = 'flower', we have clearly identified 'de' as 'flower'.

Conclusion

Statement II alone is sufficient to determine that 'de' means 'flower'.

Statement I alone does not provide sufficient information to identify the word for 'flower' precisely.

Thus, the correct answer is:

(D) If the data in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.

Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 23
Save

Given below is a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements is sufficient to answer the question. You should use the given data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose between the possible answers.

X, Y and Z are integers. Is X an odd number?

I. An odd number is obtained when X is divided by 5.

II. X + Y is an odd number.
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 23

X, Y and Z are integers.

From statement I:

An odd number is obtained when X is divided by 5.

⇒ X/5 = odd number

We know, 5 is an odd number

Thus, X = 5 × (odd number)

We know that, whenever any odd number is multiplied by any other odd number, it gives an odd number.

Hence, X is an odd number
∴ the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question

From statement II:

(X + Y) is an odd number.

Here, the following cases arise which can make (X + Y) odd:

X : even and Y: odd

Or

X : odd and Y : even

Thus, we cannot determine if X is an odd number or not; hence statement II alone 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 alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Question: On a T.V. channel, four serials A, B, C, and D were screened, one on eacn days, on four consecutive days but not necessarily in that order. On which day was serial C screened?
Statements:
I. The first serial was screened on 23rd, Tuesday and was followed by serial D.
II. Serial A was not screened on 25th and one serial was screened between serials A and B.
Detailed Solution for Test: Data Sufficiency- 1 - Question 25

From I, we know that the serials were screened on 23rd, 24th, 25th and 26th.

Clearly, D was screened second i.e. on 24th, Wednesday.

From II, we know that one serial was screened between A and B.

So, A and B were screened first and third, i.e. on 23rd and 25th. But, A was not screened on 25th.

So, A was screened on 23rd and B on 25th. Thus, C was screened on 26th, Friday.

So Option C is correct
