Quantitative
If all roses are flowers, and some flowers are red, which must be true?
From "all roses are flowers" and "some flowers are red", we cannot conclude about roses being red. But "some red things are flowers" must be true.
Quantitative
A is twice as efficient as B. Together they complete a work in 12 days. In how many days will A alone complete it?
Let B's efficiency = 1 unit/day A's efficiency = 2 units/day Together: 1 + 2 = 3 units/day Total work = 3 × 12 = 36 units A alone: 36 / 2 = 18 days
Reasoning
What is the value of x? Statement I: x² - 6x + 8 = 0. Statement II: x
Statement I: x² - 6x + 8 = 0 (x - 2)(x - 4) = 0 x = 2 or x = 4 Statement II: x < 5 (both 2 and 4 satisfy this) Combining both: x = 2 or x = 4 (both < 5)
Reasoning
Statements: 1. Some cats are dogs, 2. All dogs are animals, 3. No animal is a bird
From statements 1 and 2: Some cats are animals (I follows) From statements 2 and 3: No dog is a bird (II follows) From I: Some animals are cats (III follows)
Quantitative
A man can do a piece of work in 10 days, and another man can do it in 15 days. How long will they take to complete the work together?
First man's 1 day work = 1/10 Second man's 1 day work = 1/15 Combined 1 day work = 1/10 + 1/15 = (3+2)/30 = 5/30 = 1/6 Time taken together = 6 days
Reasoning
A is taller than B but shorter than C. D is shorter than B. Who is tallest?
C > A > B > D → C is tallest.
Quantitative
A can do a piece of work in 10 days and B in 15 days. Days to finish together:
1/10 + 1/15 = 1/6 → 6 days.
Reasoning
Find the missing number: 2, 6, 12, 20, 30, ?
Pattern: Differences are 4, 6, 8, 10 (increasing by 2) Next difference = 12 Next number = 30 + 12 = 42
Reasoning
Find the next number: 2, 6, 12, 20, 30, ?
Differences +4, +6, +8, +10, +12 → next is 42.
Verbal
"The committee have decided": correct form is:
Collective noun "committee" as one unit takes singular "has".

He doesn't / does not - subject-verb agreement.
Quantitative
The average of 5 numbers is 42. If one number 32 is removed, the new average is:
Sum = 210. New sum = 178. Average = 178/4 = 44.5.

Numerical ability questions
Q1: Loss to profit shift
Problem: An article sold at 10% loss would give 5% profit if sold for ₹60 more. Find the cost price.
Solution: 0.9P + 60 = 1.05P 60 = 0.15P P = 60 / 0.15 = ₹400.
Answer: ₹400
Q2: Net percent change
Problem: A number is increased by 20% and then decreased by 20%. What is the net percentage change?
Solution: Start with 100 → 120 → 96. Net change = 4% decrease. Formula: successive +a then −a gives −(a²/100)% = −4%.
Answer: 4% decrease
Q3: Average after replace
Problem: The average of five numbers is 20. One number 30 is replaced by 10. What is the new average?
Solution: Old sum = 5 × 20 = 100. New sum = 100 − 30 + 10 = 80. New average = 80 / 5 = 16.
Answer: 16
Q4: Pipe fill
Problem: Pipe A fills a tank in 6 hours and pipe B in 8 hours. How long do they take together to fill it?
Solution: Combined rate = 1/6 + 1/8 = 4/24 + 3/24 = 7/24. Time = 24/7 hours ≈ 3 hours 26 minutes.
Answer: 24/7 hours
Q5: Marked price discount
Problem: A shopkeeper marks goods 20% above cost and then gives a 10% discount. What is the profit percentage?

Answer: 8%
Q6: A and B together
Problem: A can finish a job in 10 days and B in 20 days. How long will they take working together?
Solution: A’s one-day work = 1/10. B’s one-day work = 1/20. Together = 1/10 + 1/20 = 3/20 per day. Time = 20/3 ≈ 6.67 days (6 days 16 hours).
Answer: 20/3 days
Q7: Consecutive integers
Problem: If the sum of three consecutive integers is 72, what is the smallest of these integers?
Solution: Let the integers be x, x+1, and x+2.
x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 72 3x + 3 = 72 3x = 69 x = 23
So the integers are 23, 24, and 25.
Answer: 23
Q8: Remainder theorem style
Problem: Find remainder when 7^3 is divided by 5.
Solution: 343 ÷ 5: 5×68=340, remainder 3. Or 7≡2 mod 5; 2³=8≡3.
Answer: 3
Q9: Mean median hint
