MCQ Test: Ranking- 1 - Banking Exams MCQ

The given number:
2  4  5  1  4  7  9  6  3  8
After arranging the first half and the second half of the digits of given number in ascending order, we get new number as:
1  2  4  4  5  3  6  7  8  9
Now,

Comparing both the numbers, we can say that there is no number whose position remains unchanged.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Using the given information we can create a following figure:

Here the total number of persons in the queue = (*29 + 19 - 1)= 47
Note: 29 is derived by adding Ram's position from left end of the row (24) and his position with respect to Priya (5).
Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Here, we know that Vikram was ninth from the left while Hariom was thirteenth from the left. So, we can say that there were 3 persons between Vikram and Hariom.
And, we also know that Hariom was exactly in the middle of Vikram and Janhvi so the number of persons between Hariom and Janhvi will also be 3.
At this point, using the given information we can create a following figure:

Now, total number of people in the queue = (8 + Vikram + 3 + Hariom + 3 + Janhvi + 7)
= (8 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 7) = 24
Thus, the total number of people in the queue was 24.
Hence, the correct answer is option D.

Adding all the persons in the above image, we get:
8 + 1(Trisha) + 5 + 1(Tanya) + 5 + 1(Tina) + 11 = 32
Thus there are 32 cadets in the row.
Hence option B is the correct answer.

From the given image it is clear that Ayesha is 12th from the right end.

Position of Ayesha from right end = 7 + 1(Anisha) + 1 + 1(Ariva) +1 + 1 = 12
Hence option B is the correct answer.

As per Riya the amount paid must be between Rs. 9 and Rs. 14, since it can't be an even number so the possible amounts are- 9, 11 and 13.
As per Sudha the amount paid could be Rs. 11 or Rs. 12, but since it can't be an even number so the amount paid for the ticket is Rs. 11.
So, the ticket is priced at Rs. 11.
Hence option B is correct. 

From the following explanation the second coldest city can't be determined.
Hence option E is the correct answer.
Common Explanation
Reference:
Simla is colder than only Ooty.
Mussoorie is colder than Mount Abu but not as cold as Nainital.
Darjeeling is colder than Simla but not the coldest. 
Inference:
From the above hints, following three cases can be drawn.
Case 1: When Mussoorie is second coldest and Darjeeling is not colder than Mount Abu.

Case 2: When Mussoorie is second coldest and Darjeeling is colder than Mount Abu.

Case 3: When Darjeeling is second coldest and is colder than Mussoorie.

Thus the second coldest city is different for different cases. Hence it cannot be determined.

The given number:
5 7 8 4 6 2 1 3 9
After arranging all the digits in ascending order, we get:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Hence, there are two such digits whose positions are remained unchanged.
Hence, the correct answer is option B.

Total number of students who got selected = (Vikas's rank from the top + Vikas's rank from the bottom) - 1 = 18 + 36 - 1 = 53
Hence, total number of students who were in class 12th = 53 + 12 + 7 = 72
Hence, the correct answer is option B.

Number of People between Sonal and Rinku = 68 – (22 + 17) = 29
Position of Pinku sitting exactly in the middle of Sonal and Rinku = (29 + 1)/2 = 15th
Position of Pinku from the left end = 22 + 15 = 37th
Option C is hence the correct answer.

Following the final solution we can say that four books contain more pages than Science book.
Hence, the correct answer is option D.
Final Solution:

Common Explanation:
Reference:
Computer book contains fewer pages than only two books.
The book which contain third lowest pages contain 28 pages.
Inference:
After using the above hints, we have:

Reference:
English book contains more pages than Science book but less than Sanskrit book.
Science book does not contain least pages.
Sanskrit book contains fewer pages than Hindi book.
Inference:
After using the above hints, we have:

At this point we can say that Maths book contains least number of pages.

Following the final solution we can say that Sanskrit book contains 54 pages.
We have,
Pages in English book = 28 pages
Pages in Computer and English book = 63 pages
∴ Pages in Computer Book = 35 pages
Now, Pages in Sanskrit and Computer = 89 pages
∴ Pages in Sanskrit Book = 54 pages
Hence, the correct answer is option B.

Following the final solution we can say that there were 69 persons in the row.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.
Final Solution:
Order of persons in the row = 11 persons + Gaur + 22 persons + Deep + 22 persons + Roop + 11 persons
Total number of persons in the row =  69 persons.
Common Explanation:
Reference:
Number of persons on the right of Roop was same as the number of persons on the left of Gaur.
Gaur sits on the left of Roop.
Deep sits exactly in the middle of Roop and Gaur
Inference:
Let’s assume that number of persons on the right of Roop and on the on the left of Gaur was X, and the number of persons between Deep and Roop, and Gaur and Deep are Y. Then,
Order of persons in the row = X persons + Gaur + Y persons + Deep + Y persons + Roop + X persons
Reference:
Number of persons between Deep and Roop were twice the number of persons on the right of Roop, who was 58th from the left end.
Inference:
After using the above references, we have:
Position of Roop from left end = 58th
And, Number of persons between Deep and Roop were twice the number of persons on the right of Roop i.e. 2X = Y.
Here, Number of persons to the left of Roop in the row = X persons + Gaur + Y persons + Deep + Y persons.
Now, 57 = X persons + 1 + 2X persons + 1 + 2X persons
X = 11 persons
Then,
Order of persons in the row = 11 persons + Gaur + 22 persons + Deep + 22 persons + Roop + 11 persons

Following the final solution we can say that the position of Deep from the right end of the row is 35.
Hence, the correct answer is option D.
Final Solution:
Order of persons in the row = 11 persons + Gaur + 22 persons + Deep + 22 persons + Roop + 11 persons
Total number of persons in the row =  69 persons.
Common Explanation:
Reference:
Number of persons on the right of Roop was same as the number of persons on the left of Gaur.
Gaur sits on the left of Roop.
Deep sits exactly in the middle of Roop and Gaur
Inference:
Let’s assume that number of persons on the right of Roop and on the on the left of Gaur was X, and the number of persons between Deep and Roop, and Gaur and Deep are Y. Then,
Order of persons in the row = X persons + Gaur + Y persons + Deep + Y persons + Roop + X persons
Reference:
Number of persons between Deep and Roop were twice the number of persons on the right of Roop, who was 58th from the left end.
Inference:
After using the above references, we have:
Position of Roop from left end = 58th
And, Number of persons between Deep and Roop were twice the number of persons on the right of Roop i.e. 2X = Y.
Here, Number of persons to the left of Roop in the row = X persons + Gaur + Y persons + Deep + Y persons.
Now, 57 = X persons + 1 + 2X persons + 1 + 2X persons
X = 11 persons
Then,
Order of persons in the row = 11 persons + Gaur + 22 persons + Deep + 22 persons + Roop + 11 persons
