SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 2

A car accident occurred on a busy street intersection killing two people and injuring three others. In order to nab the culprits, the police took the statements of all the witnesses present at that intersection, when the accident happened.
Some of the witnesses were in a state of shock because of the horrific accident and were unable to correctly reproduce the details of the accident. The witnesses who were in a state of shock provided all incorrect details while the rest of the witnesses provide the correct information about the accident. 

The following statements have been recorded by the police:

Witness 1: Three people were killed in the accident by a red car that ran over them.
Witness 2: The green car had a license plate with eight symbols on it, two of them being letters and the rest being digits.
Witness 3: The car was blue in colour and was being driven by a young man with two people sitting in the backseat, one of them being a woman.
Witness 4: Each of the last four digits on the license plate of the car was a power of the same number and they were in the ascending order.
Witness 5: There was a blue car involved in the accident and a yellow car was right behind it. The blue car injured two people and rushed away from the spot.
Witness 6: The car was a green Maruti with four people in it. The car hit five people injuring three of them.
Witness 7: If numbers are assigned to the two letters on the license plate of the car with A being 1, B being 2 and so on, then the sum of the two letters on the license plate was equal to the sum of the last four digits. The letters were from A-l with the letter with the lower value coming first. The last four digits were in the ascending order.

 

 

 Q. Among the last four digits on the license plate, what was the difference between the last digit and the first digit?

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 2

Solution: From the statements made by witnesses 2, 4 and 7, it is known that the last four digits on the license plate were four powers of the same number in ascending order.
The only way this can happen is if all four digits are powers of 2.
The only powers of 2 that are single digit numbers in ascending order are 2°, 21, 22 and 23 i.e. 1,2, 4 and 8.
The digits are 1,2, 4 and 8 from left to right.
So, the required difference = 8 - 1 = 7 Hence, option 4.

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 6

Directions: Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given beside:
Eight persons- A, B, C, D, P, Q, R and S are sitting in a row in which some of them are facing north while some of them are facing south. Only 3 persons sit to the left of R. 3 persons sit between R and Q. B is 2nd to the left of Q. More than 2 people’s sits between B and S, D is 2nd to the left of S. Neighbours of R are facing south. Neighbours of P face the same direction. C is 2nd to the right of A. A and P face opposite directions and similarly B and Q face opposite directions too.

Q. How many person(s) sits to left of P?

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 6

Following the final solution we can say that only 1 person sits to left of P.
Hence, the correct answer is option A

Common Explanation:
Reference:
Only 3 persons sit to the left of R.
3 persons sit between R and Q.
Inference:
As we don’t know that in which direction exactly R is facing. So, we can say that there possible scenarios in which we can use the above information correctly.
Case 1:
R faces north.

Case 2:
R faces south.

Reference:
B is 2nd to the left of Q.
Neighbours of R face the south.
B and Q face in opposite direction.
Inference:
We can use the above information in both of the cases accordingly as shown in the figures:

Reference:
More than 2 people’s sits between B and S.
D is 2nd to the left of S.
Inference:
After studying the first information we can say that either 3 or 4 persons are sitting between B and S. and with the second hint we can place D according to S in the row and we can say that there are exactly 4 persons are sitting between B and S.

Reference:
Neighbours of P face the same direction.
A and P faces in opposite direction.
C is 2nd to the right of A.
Inference:
With the first hint we can say that our case 2 is an invalid case as we cannot place P with both of its neighbour facing the same direction.
And after placing P in case 1 we can fix the position of A and C easily and can complete the puzzle.

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 7

DEER = 12215 and HIGH = 5654, how will you code HEEL?

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 7

To solve the coding pattern, let's analyze the given codes for DEER and HIGH:

  • DEER = 12215
  • HIGH = 5654

We'll try to understand the pattern by matching each letter with its corresponding number.

For DEER:

  • D -> 1
  • E -> 2
  • E -> 2
  • R -> 5

For HIGH:

  • H -> 5
  • I -> 6
  • G -> 5
  • H -> 4

Let's try to find the pattern or rule:

  1. D, E, R in DEER:

    • D = 1
    • E = 2
    • R = 5
  2. H, I, G, H in HIGH:

    • H = 5 (H = 5 for HIGH, but H = 5 and 4 in DEER and HIGH respectively)
    • I = 6
    • G = 5
    • H = 4

Now, let's find the code for HEEL:

  • H -> 5 (from HIGH)
  • E -> 2 (from DEER)
  • E -> 2 (from DEER)
  • L -> We need to determine L's code

Since L hasn't appeared yet, we need to figure out its code. Based on patterns, if the trend is alphabetical positioning, L could potentially be coded uniquely. Let's explore the pattern in numbers:

  • H = 5
  • E = 2
  • E = 2
  • L = ?

Considering possible consistency in coding and based on given options, the most logical way might use the remaining structure within the problem’s predefined context for HEEL = 5229.

So, the most likely answer should be:

4. 5229

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 8

If ZIP = 198 and ZAP = 246, then how will you code VIP?

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 8

Taking Z = 2, Y = 3,……,N = 14,……..B= 26, A = 27 we have :
ZIP = (Z + I + P) × 6 = (2 + 19 + 12) × 6 = 33 × 6 = 198.
So, VIP = (V + I + P) × 6 = (6 + 19 + 12) × 6 = 37 × 6 = 222.

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 9

A vessel contains a mixture of two liquids A and B in the ratio of 4:1. When 10 litres of the mixture is replaced with liquid B, the ratio becomes 2:3. How many litres of liquid A was present in the jar initially?

Two equal sums were borrowed at 8% simple interest per annum for 2 years and 3 years respectively. The difference in the interest was Rs. 56. The sum borrowed were

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 10

The difference would amount to 8% of the value borrowed. Thus 56 = 0.08 x sum borrowed in each case → Sum borrowed = Rs. 700.

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 11

Twenty workers can finish a piece of work in 30 days. After how many days should 5 workers leave the job so that the work is completed in 35 days?

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 11

Total man days required = 600 man days. If 5 workers leave the job after ‘n’ days, the total work
would be done in 35 days. We have to find the value of ‘n’ to satisfy:
20 × n + (35 – n) × 15 = 600.
Solving for n, we get
20n – 15n + 35 × 15 = 600
5n = 75
n = 15.

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 12

Subhash can copy 50 pages in 10 hours; Subhash and Prakash together can copy 300 pages in 40hours. In how much time can Prakash copy 30 pages?

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 12

Subhash can copy 200 pages in 40 hours (reaction to the first sentence). Hence, Prakash can copy
100 pages in 40 hours. Thus, he can copy 30 pages in 30% of the time: i.e. 12 hours.

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 13

(656 ÷ 164)² = √?

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 15

Of all the students in a certain dormitory, half are first-year students and the rest are second-year students. If 4/5 of the first-year students have not declared a major and the fraction of second-year students who have declared a major is 3 times the fraction of the first-year students who have declared a major, then what fraction of all the students in the dormitory are second-year students who have not declared a major?

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 15

Suppose total number of students in a certain dormitory = y
Then, total number of first-year students = y/2
Total number of first-year students who have not declared a major = (2/5)y
So, fraction of first-year students who have declared a major = (1/10)y
Total number of fraction of second-year students who have declared a major = (3/10)y
Total number of fraction of second-year students who have not declared a major = (1/5)y
Then, required fraction = (1/5)

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 22

Direction: Each question below has one blank, which is indicating that something has been omitted. Find out which option can be used to fill up the blank in the sentence in the same sequence to make it meaningfully complete. 

There has been _____________ interest among retail investors in ETF, thanks to the underperformance of the actively-managed large-cap equity funds. 

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 22

According to the context of the sentence we are saying that the large cap funds have not been able to perform properly in the recent times and that is why the retail investors must have been interested in the ETF segment. Obviously the retail participation must have seen an increase as per the second part of the given sentence. Therefore among the given words we can use increased to fill the blank in the sentence to make it meaningful and correct. Other words fail to imply the intended meaning and that is why they are eliminated.

This makes Option B the correct choice among the given options. 

SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 23

Directions: Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:

There is now no denying that the new government takes office amid a clear economic slowdown. The first macro data set released showed an under-performing economy with GDP growth falling to 5.8% in the fourth quarter of 2018-19 and pulling down the overall growth for the fiscal to a five-year low of 6.8%. Growth in gross value added (GVA), which is GDP minus taxes and subsidies, fell to 6.6% in 2018-19, pointing to a serious slowdown. If further confirmation were needed, the growth in core sector output — a set of eight major industrial sectors — fell to 2.6% in April, compared to 4.7% in the same month last year. And finally, unemployment data, controversially suppressed by the Union government so far, showed that joblessness was at a 45-year high of 6.1% in 2017-18. These numbers highlight the challenges ahead in drafting the Budget for 2019-20. The economy is beset by a consumption slowdown as reflected in the falling sales of everything from automobiles to consumer durables, even fast-moving consumer goods. Private investment is not taking off, while government spending, which kept the economy afloat during the last NDA government, was cut back in the last quarter of 2018-19 to meet the fiscal deficit target of 3.4%.

The good news is that inflation is undershooting the target and oil prices are on the retreat again. But the rural economy remains in distress, as seen by the 2.9% growth in agriculture last fiscal; the sector needs a good monsoon this year to bounce back. Overall economic growth in the first quarter of this fiscal is likely to remain subdued, and any improvement is unlikely until the late second quarter or the early third. There are not too many options before the new Finance Minister. In the near term, she has to boost consumption, which means putting more money in the hands of people. That, in turn, means cutting taxes, which is not easy given the commitment to rein in the fiscal deficit. In the medium term, Ms. Sitharaman has to take measures to boost private investment even as she opens up public spending again. These call for major reforms, starting with land acquisition and labour, corporate taxes by reducing exemptions and dropping rates, and nursing banks back to health. On the table will be options such as further recapitalisation of the ailing banks, and consolidation. The question, though, is where the money will come from. With tax revenues likely to be subdued owing to the slowdown, the Centre will have to look at alternative sources such as disinvestment. There may be little choice but to go big on privatisation. A rate cut by the Reserve Bank of India, widely expected this week, would certainly help boost sentiment. But it is the Budget that will really set the tone for the economy

Q. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the word beset?

Detailed Solution for SSC Selection Post Mock Test - 6 - Question 23

Beset: Something that troubles persistently.

As per this, besiege is correct and has the same meaning as beset.
