Question : Directions: Which one set of letters when sequentially placed at the gaps in the given letter series shall complete it?
c_bba_cab_ac_ab_ac

Option 1: babcc

Option 2: bcacb

Option 3: acbcb

Option 4: abcbc

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: acbcb


Solution : Given:
c_bba_cab_ac_ab_ac

To fill the series we have to divide the series – c_b/ba_/cab/_ac/_ab/_ac
Let's check each option:
First option: babcc; cbb/baa/cab/bac/cab/cac; (No pattern has been found.)
Second option: bcacb; cbb/bac/cab/aac/cab/bac; (No pattern has been found.)
Third option: acbcb; cab/bac/cab/bac/cab/bac; (cab, bac has been repeated.)
Fourth option: abcbc; cab/bab/cab/cac/bab/cac; (No pattern has been found.)

So, the series becomes→cabbaccabbaccabbac. Hence, the third option is correct.

(14, 19, 23)

Option 1: (12, 18, 25)

Option 2: (13, 21, 27)

Option 3: (15, 26, 31)

Option 4: (17, 24, 41)

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: (15, 26, 31)


Solution : Given:
(16, 22, 28); (14, 19, 23)

The pattern here is – (The third number – The first number) + 10 = The second number
(16, 22, 28)→(28 – 16) + 10 = 12 + 10 = 22
(14, 19, 23)→(23 – 14) + 10 = 9 + 10 = 19
Let's check the options –
First option: (12, 18, 25)→(25 – 12) + 10 = 13 + 10 = 23 ≠ 18
Second option: (13, 21, 27)→(27 – 13) + 10 = 14 + 10 = 24 ≠ 21
Third option: (15, 26, 31)→(31 – 15) + 10 = 16 + 10 = 26
Fourth option: (17, 24, 41)→(41 – 17) + 10 = 24 + 10 = 34 ≠ 24

So, only the third option follows the pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the third option is correct.

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: (1000, 7, 3)


Solution : Given: 
(125, 2, 3); (512, 5, 3)

Determine the cube of the sum of the second and third numbers, to obtain the first number –
(125, 2, 3)→(2 + 3)3 = 125
(512, 5, 3)→(5 + 3)3 = 512

Let's check each option –
First option: (1782, 8, 6)→(8 + 6)3 = 2744 ≠ 1782
Second option: (1000, 7, 3)→(7 + 3)3 = 1000
Third option: (343, 5, 3)→(5 + 3)3 = 512 ≠ 343
Fourth option: (216, 4, 3)→(4 + 3)3 = 343 ≠ 216

So, only the second option follows the same pattern as the given set of numbers. Hence, the second option is correct.

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: (313, 627, 1255)


Solution : Given:
(46, 93, 187); (123, 247, 495)

Here, (46, 93, 187)→(46 × 2) + 1 = 92 + 1 = 93; (93 × 2) + 1 = 186 + 1 = 187
(123, 247, 495)→(123 × 2) + 1 = 246 + 1 = 247; (247 × 2) + 1 = 494 + 1 = 495

Let's check the options –
First option: (208, 418, 837)→(208 × 2) + 1 = 416 + 1 = 417 ≠ 418; (418 × 2) + 1 = 836 + 1 = 837
Second option: (313, 627, 1255)→(313 × 2) + 1 = 626 + 1 = 627; (627 × 2) + 1 = 1254 + 1 = 1255
Third option: (111, 213, 427)→(111 × 2) + 1 = 222 + 1 = 223 ≠ 213; (213 × 2) + 1 = 426 + 1 = 427
Fourth option: (184, 369, 729)→(184 × 2) + 1 = 368 + 1 = 369; (369 × 2) + 1 = 738 + 1 = 739 ≠ 729

So, only the second option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the second option is correct.

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: (22, 44, 76)


Solution : Given:
(18, 36, 60); (14, 28, 44)

In the above-given set of numbers, multiply the first number by 2 to obtain the second number. Multiply the first number by 4 and then subtract 12 from the resultant to get the third number.
(18, 36, 60)→18 × 2 = 36; (18 × 4) – 12 = 72 – 12 = 60
(14, 28, 44)→14 × 2 = 28; (14 × 4) – 12 = 56 – 12 = 44

Let's check the options –
First option: (21, 42, 164)→21 × 2 = 42; (21 × 4) – 12 = 84 – 12 = 72 ≠ 164
Second option: (17, 32, 60)→17 × 2 = 34 ≠ 32; (17 × 4) – 12 = 68 – 12 = 56 ≠ 60
Third option: (16, 28, 64)→16 × 2 = 32 ≠ 28; (16 × 4) – 12 = 64 – 12 = 52 ≠ 64
Fourth option: (22, 44, 76)→22 × 2 = 44; (22 × 4) – 12 = 88 – 12 = 76

So, only the fourth option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the fourth option is correct.

Correct Answer: (51, 112, 173)


Solution : Given:
(47, 108, 169); (22, 83, 144)

In the given sets, the difference between the second and first numbers and the difference between the third and the second numbers are the same.
(47, 108, 169)→108 – 47 = 61; 169 – 108 = 61
(22, 83, 144)→83 – 22 = 61; 144 – 83 = 61
Let's check the options –
First option: (11, 73, 133)→73 – 11 = 62; 133 – 73 = 60 ≠ 62
Second option: (51, 112, 173)→112 – 51 = 61; 173 – 112 = 61
Third option: (33, 121, 181)→121 – 33 = 88; 181 – 121 = 60 ≠ 88
Fourth option: (8, 64, 130)→64 – 8 = 56; 130 – 64 = 66 ≠ 56

So, only the second option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the second option is correct.

Question : Read the passage given below and answer the questions/complete the statements that follow by choosing the correct options out of the given ones.


The old man was overjoyed when he heard of the invitation. He became nearly incoherent with joy. He was torn between the attraction of the offer and shyness. For the first time, Srinivas observed that the man could be moved by shyness. "No, no, I never eat anywhere. Oh, don't trouble yourself about it... No, no ..." he said but all the same, got up and followed Srinivas into the kitchen. He grinned affably at Srinivas's wife and commented flatteringly: "I have always told a lot of people to come and observe this lady for a model. How well she looks after the house. I wish modern girls were all like her." Srinivas gently propelled him to a plank, on which he sat down. He observed from his wife's face that she was pleased with the compliment, and Srinivas felt that old man's coffee was now assured. His wife came out with a tumbler of water and two leaves and set them in front of them. She then served a couple of cakes on each leaf, and the old man rubbed his hands with the joy of anticipation.
At a signal from Srinivas, he fell to; and Srinivas wondered how long it was since the other had had any. "What do you eat at night?" he asked testingly. The old man tore off a piece of cake and stuffed it in his mouth and swallowed it before he answered, shaking his head: 'I'm not a youth. Time was when I used to take three meals a day - three full meals a day in addition to tiffin twice a day. Do you know
"That's remarkable." Agreed Srinivas admiringly. "But now what do you do?"
"I'm a sanyasi, my dear young man."

Question:

What was the reason the old man flattered Srinivas's wife?
 

Option 1: Because it is an example of good manners.
 

Option 2: Because he wanted to be welcomed.
 

Option 3: Because he had met her for the first time.
 

Option 4: both 1 and 2 .

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: both 1 and 2 .


Solution : The correct answer is option 4.

Explanation:

Both 1 and 2 Key Points are correct answers.
- Consider the following passage lines-

"He grinned affably at Srinivas's wife and commented flatteringly: "I have always told a lot of people to come and observe this lady for a model. How well she looks after the house. I wish modern girls were all like her."
- "He observed from his wife's face that she was pleased with the compliment,

From the above mentioned sentences it can be inferred that appreciating someone is a sign of good manners and also the old man was treated more warmly after he complimented the lady.

Question : Comprehension:
Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
India's favourable demographic trends, which have increased the workforce's percentage of the overall population, have paved the way for a significant middle-class expansion. A big population bulge emerging from absolute poverty and set to reach the middle class would generate new dynamics. In India, over 55 percent of the population is predicted to reach the middle class. In reality, because India's demographics are significantly younger than China and the United States, the country's middle class might be the world's largest (in terms of population) by 2025.
It is no exaggeration to argue that future growth will be reliant on the increasing middle class and that the middle class's development will be reliant on growth. Growth has been fuelled by both private consumption and saving, both of which are fuelled by the middle class. India's private consumption accounts for over 60% of the country's GDP, while private consumption growth has contributed to 70% of the country's growth since 2000.
Even though China's middle class is now greater than India's, private spending in the former accounts for a lesser share of growth. In contrast to the United States, where domestic savings are dropping and the country borrows excess funds from outside to invest and expand, India's domestic savings and investments are increasing and funding investments. The emergence of the middle class is anticipated to coincide with a transition away from large-scale informality, which now characterises much of the services and industrial sectors, and toward more formal, wage-earning, and medium-scale firms. Technological advancements will spread at a faster rate. Cities will expand as job possibilities concentrate on them. If there is enough movement across states and from rural to urban regions, the population increase will be more evenly distributed.
