SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 13

A number, when divided successively by 4, 5 and 6, leaves remainders 2, 3 and 4, respectively. The least such number is

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 13
Let p be the number.

Suppose,

p ÷ 4 = q, remainder = 2

q ÷ 5 = r, remainder = 3

r ÷ 6 = s, remainder = 4

Then,

r = 6s + 4

q = 5r + 3 = 5(6s + 4) + 3 = 30s + 23

p = 4q + 2 = 4(30s + 23) + 2 = 120s + 94

Suppose the final quotient = 1

Then, p = 120 x 1 + 94 = 214.

Two trains, 100 m and 120 m long, travelling in opposite directions cross each other in 4 seconds. If the speed of one of the trains 90 km/hr, what is the speed of the other?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 14
Speed = (100 + 120) ÷ 4 = 55 m/s = 198 km/hr

When the two trains are crossing each other (in opposite directions), the effective speed would be the sum of the individual speeds of the trains.

Speed of the other train = 198 - 90 = 108 km/hr

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 15

If P = 229 × 321 × 58, Q = 227 × 321 × 58, R = 226 × 322 × 58 and S = 225 × 322 × 59, then which of the following is TRUE?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 15
Let A = 225 x 321 x 58

So, P = 24 x A = 16A

Q = 22 x A = 4A

R = 2 x 3 x A = 6A

S = 3 x 5 x A = 15A

Clearly, as A > 0, P > S > R > Q.

Hence, answer option (1) is correct.

Select the number from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following matrix.

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 18

The logic is:

(Column 1 - Column 2) = (Column 3 - Column 4)

Row 1: 14 - 12 = 2 and 10 - 8 = 2

Row 2: 10 - 8 = 2 and 6 - 4 = 2

Row 3: 8 - 6 = 2 and 4 - 2 = 2

Similarly,

Row 4:

Let the missing number be 'x'

So, x - 14 = 2

⇒ x = 2 + 14

⇒ x = 16

and 12 - 10 = 2

Hence, ‘16’ is the correct answer.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 19

A clock is set right at 5 am. The clock loses 16 minutes in 24 hours. What will be the true time when clock indicates 10 pm on 4th day?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 19

Number of hours from 5 AM of a particular day to 10 PM on 4th day = (19 + 24 + 24 + 22) = 89 hours

Clock loses 16 minutes in 24 hours

So, in 1 hour the clock loses 16/24 minutes

So, in 89 hours, the clock loses (16/24) × 89 minutes = 59.34 minutes which is nearly equal to 1 hour.

So, the original time on the 4th day is 11 PM when the clock shows 10 PM.

Hence, ’11 PM’ is the correct answer.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 20

In a row of people, Raghav is standing at the 14th position from the extreme left end and Naresh is at the 16th position from the extreme right end. If they interchange their respective positions, Raghav now becomes 23rd from the extreme left end.

Q. What is the position of Naresh from the extreme right end after the interchange?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 20

Given:

1) Raghav is standing at the 14th position from the extreme left end and Naresh is at the 16th position from the extreme right end.

2) After interchange their respective positions, Raghav now becomes 23rd from the extreme left end.

⇒ The total number of persons = Raghav position from left + Raghav position from right - 1

⇒ The total number of persons = 23 + 16 - 1 = 38

Naresh position from the right:

⇒ The total number of persons = Naresh position from left + Naresh position from right - 1

⇒ 38 = 14 + Naresh position from right - 1

⇒ Naresh position from right = 38 - 14 + 1 = 39 - 14 = 25

Hence, Naresh position from right is “25”.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 21

In the following question, select the odd number pair from the given alternatives.

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 21

1) 7851 – 180 → (7 + 8) × (5 + 1) × 2 = 180

2) 3712 – 60 → (3 + 7) × (1 + 2) × 2 = 60

3) 2134 – 40 → (2 + 1) × (3 + 4) × 2 ≠ 40

4) 6932 – 150 → (6 + 9) × (3 + 2) × 2 = 150

Hence, ‘2134 – 40’ is the odd one out.

32 - 56 = 704 -14

-24 = 690

LHS ≠ RHS

Option. 2 -, +, ×, =, ÷

25 * 7 * 56 * 8 * 88 * 14

25 - 7 + 56 × 8 = 88 ÷ 14

25 - 7 + 56 × 8 = 6.285

25 - 7 + 448 = 6.285

473 - 7 = 6.285

466 = 6.285

LHS ≠ RHS

Option. 3 -, ×, ×, =, +

25 * 7 * 56 * 8 * 88 * 14

25 - 7 × 56 × 8 = 88 + 14

25 - 3136 = 102

3111 = 102

LHS ≠ RHS

Option. 4 +, ×, ÷, =, -

25 * 7 * 56 * 8 * 88 * 14

25 + 7 × 56 ÷ 8 = 88 - 14

25 + 7 × 7 = 88 - 14

25 + 49 = 88 - 14

74 = 88 - 14

74 = 74

LHS = RHS

Therefore, option "+, ×, ÷, =, -" satisfies the above equation.

Hence, the correct answer is "+, ×, ÷, =, -"

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 25

In each of the given number-clusters, the number on the right side of '=' (the equal to sign) is calculated by performing certain mathematical operations on the three numbers on the left of '=' (the equal to sign). All three number-clusters follow the same pattern. Select the number from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the third number-cluster.

4, 3, 2 = 21

5, 6, 3 = 52

5, 8, 4 = ?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 25

Given:

4, 3, 2 = 21

5, 6, 3 = 52

5, 8, 4 = ?

The logic followed here is:

(1st number)2 + (2nd number)2 – (3rd number)2 = RHS

Now follow the steps:

4, 3, 2 = 21

= 42 + 32 - 22

= 16 + 9 – 4

= 25 - 4

= 21 = RHS

And,

5, 6, 3 = 52

= 52 + 62 - 32

= 25 + 36 – 9

= 61 - 9

= 52 = RHS

Similarly,

5, 8, 4 = ?

= 52 + 82 - 42

= 25 + 64 – 16

= 89 - 16

= 73 = RHS

Hence, "73" is correct answer.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 26

Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R)

Assertion (A): Selecting the right man for the right job at the right pay is the right approach.

Reason (R): A wrongly selected man is a liability.

In the above context, which one of the following is correct?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 26
Assertion (A): Selecting the right man for the right job at the right pay is the right approach.

It is true that selecting the right man for the right job at the right pay is the correct approach. This will ensure smooth and efficient functioning

Reason (R): A wrongly selected man is a liability.

It is true because a wrongly selected man is a liability. A wrong selection can put a company into a risk of inefficiency.

But Reason is not sufficient to support the assertion.

Hence, Both 'A' and 'R' are true but 'R' is not correct explanation of 'A' is the correct answer.

Minimum possible diagram,

I. No bag is book is a possibility → False (because Some bag are book)

II. Some book can never be copy → False

III. All book can be pen → False (because Only a few book are pen which means some book are pen and some book are not pen)

Therefore, Statement I will not be the result of the given conclusions.

From Statement II:

No bag are book. No pen is bag. Only pen is copy. Only a few book are pen.

I. No bag is book is a possibility → False (it is already true)

II. Some book can never be copy → True (because Only pen is copy)

III. All book can be pen → False (because Only a few book are pen which means some book are pen and some book are not pen)

Therefore, Statement II will not be the result of the given conclusions.

From Statement III:

Some bag are not book. No pen is bag. Only pen is copy. Some book are pen.

I. No bag is book is a possibility → True

II. Some book can never be copy → True (because Only pen is copy)

III. All book can be pen → True

Therefore, Statement III will be the result of the given conclusions.

From Statement IV:

Only a few book are pen. Some bag are book. No pen is bag. Only pen is copy.

I. No bag is book is a possibility → False

II. Some book can never be copy → True (because Only pen is copy)

Hence, 471375 is the code for ORANGE.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 30

At a retail shop, coins worth ₹2,160 were collected in a day, including ₹1, 2, 5, and 10 coins. If the number of ₹2 coins was 10 more than the number of ₹10 coins, 20 more than the number of ₹5 coins, but 20 less than the number of ₹1 coins, then what was the number of ₹10 coins?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 2 - Question 30
Let the number of ₹10 coins = x,

The number of ₹5 coins = y

The number of ₹1 coins = z

Then, the number of ₹2 coins = x + 10 = y + 20 = z - 20

So, x + 10 = y + 20

⇒ y = x - 10

and x + 10 = z - 20

⇒ z = x + 30

Then,

⇒ (x + 30) × 1 + (x + 10) × 2 + (x - 10) × 5 + x × 10 = 2160

⇒ x + 30 + 2x + 20 + 5x - 50 + 10x = 2160

⇒ 18x = 2160

⇒ x = 120

So, the number of ₹10 coins = x = 120 coins

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.
