C is the odd one out as rest sit on the longer sides.
Hence option E is correct.

Final Arrangement:

Common Explanation:

Reference:
G is second to the right of A.
Neither C nor A faces away from centre.
The persons whose name starts with vowel do not sit on the shorter side of the table.

Inference:
With respect to second hint, we can say that A faces centre.
As per third hint it is clear that A does not sit at the shorter side. Thus following three arrangements are possible.

Reference:
B, who faces centre sits second to the left of E.
J is on the immediate right of F, who is at a gap of two persons from E.
E is adjacent to G.
I is on the immediate left of F.
I is neither adjacent to A nor to C.
The persons whose name starts with vowel do not sit on the shorter side of the table.

Inference:
As per the hints, one more case arises from each of the three cases.

Both the cases get eliminated as I is adjacent to C in both the cases which violates the fifth hint.

Case-2A eliminates as I is adjacent to C, which violates the fifth hint.

Case-3 gets eliminated as I is adjacent to A, which violates the fifth hint.
Thus we are left with case-2 only.
 
Reference:
The immediate neighbors of F face away from centre.
Neither C nor A face away from centre.
Three of them face away from centre while the rest five face towards the centre.
 
Inference:
Thus as per both the hints we can say that C faces centre and J and I face away from centre.
As per third hint, we can determine that the only left person i.e. G also faces away from centre.

Given Data:

• The average of 8 numbers is 25:
  • Sum of all 8 numbers = 8 × 25 = 200
• The average of the first two numbers is 20:
  • Sum of the first two numbers = 2 × 20 = 40
• The average of the next three numbers is 26:
  • Sum of the next three numbers = 3 × 26 = 78
• The sixth number (x) is:
  • 4 less than the seventh (y): y = x + 4
  • 6 less than the eighth (z): z = x + 6

Step-by-Step Solution:

Step 1: Sum of the last three numbers

From the total sum:

Sum of the last three numbers = 200 - (Sum of the first five numbers)

Sum of the last three numbers = 200 - (40 + 78) = 200 - 118 = 82

Step 2: Equation for the last three numbers

The last three numbers are x, y, and z. Using their relationships:

x + y + z = 82

Substitute y = x + 4 and z = x + 6 into the equation:

x + (x + 4) + (x + 6) = 82

3x + 10 = 82

3x = 72 ⇒ x = 24

Step 3: Find y and z

Using x = 24:

• y = x + 4 = 24 + 4 = 28
• z = x + 6 = 24 + 6 = 30

Verification:

The sum of the last three numbers is: 24 + 28 + 30 = 82

This matches the required sum, confirming our calculations.

Final Answer:

The last number is 30.

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

Raju being twice as good a workman as Vijay, you can solve the following equation to get the
required answer:

Solving will give you that Vijay takes 42 days.

LCM of 12, 15, 25 and 30 is 300
least number of 4-digit divided by 300 is 1200

Let the amounts of water in the bottles be V, 2V, 3V, 4V, 5V and 6V.
So, total water poured = 21V
Let the capacity of each bottle be C.
So, capacity of six bottles = 6C
Capacity of jar = 3C
As the jar is completely filled, we have
21V = 3C
Or 7V = C
Now, 70% of 7V = 4.9V
Thus, there are two bottles which were at least 70% filled with water.
Hence, answer option 3 is correct.

Average of set A elements = x + 4.5
Average of set B elements = y + 7
So,  = 9/14
⇒ 14x + 63 = 9y + 63
⇒ x/y = 9/14

100 litres of mixture has 80 litres of milk and 20 litres of water.
When 25 litres of mixture is taken out, it contains 20 litres of milk and 5 litres of water.
So, milk left = 60 litres and water left = 15 litres.
If 25 litres of water is added, then ratio of water to milk = 40 : 60 = 2 : 3

 Height of the cylinders = 42 cm
Radius of the outer cylinder = r₁ = 16/2 = 8 cm
Radius of the inner cylinder = r₂ = 14/2 = 7 cm
Therefore, volume of the cork dust required = Volume of the outer cylinder – Volume of the inner cylinder

= 1980 cm³

Average rate of tap = 2/3 drops/sec
Total number of drops in the completely filled vessel = 2080
So, time taken by the tap to drip 2080 drops 
i.e. Time required to fill the vessel = 3120 sec
∴ Number of times that the vessel be filled in this manner in 13 hours 

The Indian Legion officially the Free India Legion or 950th (Indian) Infantry Regiment, was a military unit raised during the Second World War initially as part of the German Army and later the Waffen-SS from August 1944. Intended to serve as a liberation force for British-ruled India, it was made up of Indian prisoners of war and expatriates in Europe. Because of its origins in the Indian independence movement, it was known also as the "Tiger Legion", and the "Azad Hind Fauj".

Indian independence leader Subhas Chandra Bose initiated the legion's formation, as part of his efforts to win India's independence by waging war against Britain, when he came to Berlin in 1941 seeking German aid.

The initial recruits in 1941 were volunteers from the Indian students resident in Germany at the time, and a handful of the Indian prisoners of war who had been captured during the North Africa Campaign.

It would later draw a larger number of Indian prisoners of war as volunteers

• In the eighth 5 year plan (1992 - 97) Target Growth was 5.6 % while the Actual Growth 6.8%. In the Ninth Plan (1997- 2002) Target Growth was 6.5% while the Actual Growth: 5.4% In the Tenth Plan (2002 - 2007) the Target Growth was 8 % while the Actual Growth 7.6 % In the Eleventh Plan (2007 - 2012) the Target Growth was 9 % while the Actual Growth is 8%. Hence it is seen that the growth rate fluctuated many times, and it was not steadily increased. Hence statement 1 is not correct.
• After the economic reforms, during the eighth plan period, high growth of agriculture and allied sector, and the manufacturing sector was seen. Hence statement 2 is correct.
• The share of the public sector in total investment had declined considerably to about 34 %. So it decreased.
• Hence statement 3 is not correct.

• In 1991, India met with an economic crisis relating to its external debt — the government was not able to make repayments on its borrowings from abroad; foreign exchange reserves, which we generally maintain to import petrol and other important items, dropped to levels that were not sufficient for even a fortnight. The crisis was further compounded by rising prices of essential goods. India approached the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), popularly known as World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and received $7 billion as a loan to manage the crisis. For availing the loan, these international agencies expected India to liberalise and open up the economy by removing restrictions on the private sector, reduce the role of the government in many areas and remove trade restrictions. This led to Liberalization, Privatization and Globalization, popularly known as LPG reforms.
• Outcomes of reforms: The growth of GDP increased from 5.6 per cent during 1980-91 to 6.4 per cent during 1992-2001. This shows that there has been an increase in the overall GDP growth in the reform period. Hence statement 2 is correct.
• The opening up of the economy has led to rapid increase in foreign direct investment and foreign exchange reserves. The foreign investment, which includes foreign direct investment and foreign institutional investment, increased from about US $ 100 million in 1990-91 to US $ 150 billion in 2003-04. There has been an increase in the foreign exchange reserves from about US $ 6 billion in 1990- 91 to US $ 125 billion in 2004-05. Hence statement 1 is correct.

The sentence "Sixty miles are a good distance" is incorrect. It should be "Sixty miles is a good distance" because "sixty miles" is considered a singular quantity. Therefore, the error is in part 2.

So, the correct choice is:

2.   Are.

Elbow grease: Strenuous physical effort

Choice C has an incorrect idiom: while as. Choices A, C, D have passive constructions in the last part of the options. A also unnecessarily has ‘the’ before ‘energy costs’. This word is needed or the meaning of the sentence would be altered. Choice B is the correct answer.

This sentence is in the active voice, with the subject "someone" performing the action of making the necessary arrangements. To convert it to the passive voice, the object of the verb (the necessary arrangements) becomes the subject of the sentence, and the verb is changed to its past participle form (been made). The preposition "by" is added to indicate who performed the action.

Option (c) correctly expresses the sentence in the passive voice. Option (a) and (b) are incorrect because they use incorrect word order, and option (d) is in the active voice, with the subject "one" performing the action.

By timeline, 8500 BC was before 5000 BC. So sentence C is likely to feature after sentence D in the paragraph.

Sentence D talks of cultivation of plants and domestication of animals that began in the Near East around 8500 BC. Sentence A carries this idea forward, explaining how fixed settlements and small towns came into being after people turned to farming.

Sentence B starts off with “their labors"?. Who does “their"? refer to? Sentence C, which talks of farmers who moved down to the river valleys of Mesopotamia and their efforts to build dykes and ditches, has the answer. So B follows C.

DACB makes a cogent paragraph.

The question is " Arrange the sentences in the correct order "
The order is DACB

Hence, the answer is DACB
Choice A is the correct answer.

Statement I. They collect data in the form of graphs.
Refer to:
These sensors collect data in the form of images and provide insights for manipulating, analyzing and visualizing those images. 
From the highlighted sentence above, it’s clear that Statement A is wrong as GIS and remote sensing tools collect data in the form of images and not graphs. Statement I is hence invalid
Statement II. They provide scope for manipulating, analyzing and visualizing the images.
From the same sentence as taken above for reference, we can infer that the mentioned tools are indeed helpful for manipulating, analyzing and visualizing the images. Statement III is hence true.
Statement III. They disseminate data’s more accurately.
Refer to: 
Management of natural resources calls for scientific tools for timely and accurate dissemination of information. In natural resource management, remote sensing and GIS are mainly used in the mapping process.
We can infer from the highlighted part above that GIS and remote sensing disseminate data’s more accurately.
Statement III is hence valid too.
Option B is hence the correct answer.

Refer to: 
… These techniques are useful in management of land, soil, coastal, watershed, urban and many more. 
The whole passage mentions the uses of remote sensing and GIS in various areas for planning and effective management and this can be inferred from the highlighted part above.
Evidently, option A suits best as the title of the passage and therefore is the correct answer.
