Miku sits opposite to Bhiku, who sits at one of the corners of a table.

The one who likes Drum sits second to the left of Miku.

One of the vacant seats is at corner.

Two vacant seats are not adjacent to each other.

The person who likes Guitar and Chiku sit opposite to each other.

The person who likes Flute sits adjacent to Kiku and the person who likes Guitar.

Thus, Case 1a and Case 2a get cancelled.

Two seats are between the one who likes Tabla and the person who likes Piano.

Riku sits third to the right of the person who likes Piano.

Now, only remaining person is Piku.

Piku does not like Drum.

Thus, Case 2 gets cancelled.

Now, the only remaining instrument is Violin.

Thus, Chiku must like Violin.

This is the final arrangement.

Chiku likes Violin and Piku sits opposite to Chiku.

The word 'jaded' means 'bored or lacking enthusiasm, typically after having had too much of a thing or an event'; 'physically tired; exhausted'.
In sentence I, the word 'jaded' is used to describe the quality of the journey and it qualifies the noun 'journey'. Its usage in this sentence is correct.
In sentence II, the word 'jaded' is used to describe the inability of a person to see clearly, which is in fact not the meaning of the word 'jaded'. Thus, the use of 'jaded' in this sentence is incorrect. The appropriate word to be used in the sentence is 'blurred' (unable to see or be seen clearly).
In sentence III, the word 'jaded' is used to describe the quality of a scattered room which is not the meaning of the given word. Thus, this sentence incorrectly uses the word 'jaded'. The word to be used in the sentence is 'unclean' or 'disorganized'.
Hence, the correct answer is option (a).
Note:
Qualifiers: A word or phrase that limits the meaning of another word or phrase or makes it less general. 'Adverbs' and 'adjectives' are qualifiers.

'Poked' means to push a finger or other pointed object quickly into someone or something.

'Thrust' means to push suddenly and strongly.

'Lauded' means to praise.

'Bragged' means to speak too proudly about what you have done or what you own.

As per the meanings, only 'poked' and 'thrust' fit in the first blank, giving the meaning that someone had pushed a stick into a hive. This is contextually and grammatically correct.

So, options a), d) and e) are incorrect. They render the sentence incorrect.

'Swarm out' means to move out (of some place or thing) very quickly and in great numbers.

'Stand out' means persist in opposition or support of something.

'The bees moved out quickly and in great numbers' fits the context of the sentence.

Hence, option b) is correct.

"Human cloning would create the opportunity for an infertile couple to experience the joys of having a family without enduring the painful infertility procedures". The passage mentions the possibility of creating a family for infertile couples through Human cloning. It is the only advantage of Human cloning discussed in the passage. Hence, option (d) is the correct answer.

Human cloning cannot solve the infertility issue of couples as cloning is not introduced as a cure for a disease.

The word 'enduring' is a verb/adjective meaning suffer (something painful or difficult) patiently. Among the options, 'experiencing' is the aptest synonym of the given word. Hence, option (a) is the correct answer.

Conceding - Admit or agree that something is true after first denying or resisting it.

Begging - Ask someone earnestly or humbly for something.

Abandoning - Cease to support or look after (someone); desert.

Repudiating - Refuse to accept; reject.

Statement D is given to be in its correct position (which is fourth in the correct order). Statements A, C and E cannot be the first sentence in the correct arrangement because they contain phrases like 'this person', 'this individual', and 'both of you' respectively that show dependence on some other statement/s; while first sentence should be the one that introduces an idea or is stated generally. Statement F talks about the trust deficit between the reader (you) and 'the other person'- both having been introduced in Statement B. Thus, B should be the first; and F should be the second sentence in the correct arrangement.

C should be the third sentence because it is the only one that effectively connects the ideas from F 'beginning to doubt the other person's motive' and D 'asking you to be a partner in their wrongdoing'. Statement A adds on to the idea stated in D, by giving an example of how the other person compels you to commit a wrongdoing; while E is the end-result or the solution to the stated issue. Hence A should be the fifth sentence and E should be the last. The correct order of the given set of sentences is - BFCDAE.

The correct sequence is BFCDAE; hence sentence F should be the one to immediately succeed B. Answer is option (e).

Capital markets regulator Sebi proposed to enhance the threshold for the basic service demat account (BSDA) to Rs 10 lakh from the current Rs 2 lakh in a bid to boost the participation of retail investors in the securities market. A basic service demat account, or BSDA, is a more basic version of a regular demat account for BSDA. The facility was introduced by Sebi in 2012 for reducing the burden of demat charges on investors with small portfolios. At present, an individual can hold debt securities worth up to Rs 2 lakh and other than debt securities worth up to Rs 2 lakh in a single demat account to be eligible for BSDA. It has proposed to review the maximum annual maintenance charges. The Basic Services Demat Account (BSDA) was introduced by SEBI in 2012. The idea was to reduce the burden of demat charges on investors with a small portfolios below a threshold of Rs2 lakhs.

From I: x + 7 = -12/x

x² + 7x + 12 = 0

x² + 4x + 3x + 12 = 0

(x + 4)(x + 3) = 0

x = -4, -3

From II: y² + 9y + 20 = 0

y² + 4y + 5y + 20 = 0

(y + 4)(y + 5) = 0

y = -4, -5

Hence, x ≥ y

Money invested in scheme X = Rs. A

Money invested in scheme Y = Rs. B

Money invested in scheme Z = Rs. C

Sum of interest on A, B and C = Rs.3620

(15/100) *A + (14/100) *B + (21/100) *C = 3620

A + B + C = 21000

As A, B and C are in Arithmetic progression

2B = A + C

3B = 21000

B = Rs.7000

(15/100) *A + (14/100) *B + (21/100) *C = 3620

15 A + 14*7000 + 21C = 362000

15A + 21C = 362000 - 98000

15A + 21C = 264000.........1

A + C = 14000

15 A + 15C = 210000.........2

From equation 1 and 2

6C = 54000

C = Rs.9000

A = Rs.5000

Difference of money invested in scheme X and money invested in scheme Z = 9000-5000 = Rs.4000

Logic for the given series:

299 - 11² = 78

178 - 9² = 97

97 - 7² = 48

48 - 5² = 23

23 - 3² = 14

14 - 1² = 13

Hence, wrong term = 44

Jiay alone can complete the whole work in = 1/(7/180 - 1/36) = 90 days

Himani alone can complete the whole work in = 90 * 2/1 = 180 days

And Kiran alone can complete the whole work in = 1/(1/36 - 1/180) = 45 days

so, ratio of efficiency of Jiah, Kiran and Himani = 1/90: 1/45: 1/180 = 2: 4: 1

Hence, share of Kiran = 4/7 * 35000 = Rs. 20000

Let all L1, all L2 and all L3 workers got Rs. 12x, Rs. 20x and Rs. 15x respectively

Let each L1, each L2 and each L3 worker got Rs. 6y, Rs. 4y and Rs. 5y respectively

So, 12x + 20x + 15x = 35250

=> 47x = 35250

=> x = 750

So, all L1 get = Rs. 12 * 750 = Rs. 9000

All L2 get = Rs. 20 * 750 = Rs. 15000

And, all L3 get = Rs. 15 * 750 = Rs. 11250

Number of L1 worker = 9000/6y

Number of L2 worker = 15000/4y

Number of L3 worker = 11250/5y

So, 9000/6y + 15000/4y + 11250/5y = 300

=> y = 25

Number of L2 worker = 15000/4y = 15000/(4 * 25) = 150

Let investment of A = a

B's investment = 120% of a = 6a/5

A's period of investment = (5/2) x 12 = 30 months

B's period of investment = (5/2) x 12 - 15 = 15 months

Profit ratio, A: B = a x 30: (6a/5) x 15 = 5: 3

Total profit = 16000

Share of B in profit = 16000 x 3/8 = Rs.6000

Part of petrol in mixture A = 2/3

From I:

Part of petrol in mixture B = 1/3

Let part of petrol in final mixture = C

By the rule of alligation:

[(1/3) - C]: [C - (2/3)] = 3: 1

(1/3) - C = 3C - 2

4C = 2 + (1/3) = 7/3

C = 7/12

Ratio of petrol to kerosene in final mixture = 7: (12 - 7) = 7: 5

Cost price of final mixture = 7 * 5 + 5 * 3 = 35 + 15 = 50

Selling price of final mixture = (7 + 5) * 5 = 60

Profit percent = [(60 - 50)/50] * 100

= 20%

Statement I alone is sufficient.

From II:

Ratio of petrol to kerosene in final mixture = 7: 5

Cost price of final mixture = 7 * 5 + 5 * 3 = 35 + 15 = 50

Selling price of final mixture = (7 + 5) * 5 = 60

Profit percent = [(60 - 50)/50] * 100

= 20%

Statement II alone is sufficient.

Logic for the given series-

3¹+3 = 6,

3²+3 = 12,

3³+3 = 30,

3⁴+3 = 84,

3⁵+3 = 246,

3⁶+3 = 732.

Hence, wrong term = 243.

From equation I:

x² +3x -180 = (x -12)(x + 15)= 0

=> x = 12, -15

From equation II:

y² -24y +144 = (y -12)(y -12) = 0

=> y = 12, 12

So, x ≤ y

Let there be 'x' women in the group.

Quantity I:

4/(4 + x) = 2/5

=> 8 + 2x = 20

=> x = 6

Quantity II:

x/(4 + x) = 2/3

=> 8 + 2x = 3x

=> x = 8

Quantity I < Quantity II
