Virtusa Placement Papers 2024 - actual questions & solutions

This section contains practice questions styled on Virtusa placement papers 2024 (previous-year pattern), with worked solutions. Use them as timed sectional drills - from student reports drives vary by college and role, so treat this as a high-signal practice bank, not an official paper dump.

Question 1

Q1: A shopkeeper marks goods 40% above cost and gives a 10% discount. Find the profit percentage.

Solution:

Let CP = 100. MP = 140. SP after 10% discount = 126.

Profit % = 126 − 100 = 26%.

Answer: 26%

Question 2

Q2: Simple interest on ₹8000 at 10% per annum for 2 years is?

Solution:

SI = (P × R × T)/100 = (8000 × 10 × 2)/100 = ₹1600.

Answer: ₹1600

Question 3

Q3: A number is increased by 10% and then decreased by 10%. Find the net percentage change.

Solution:

Let original = 100. After +10% → 110. After −10% → 110 − 11 = 99.

Net change = 100 − 99 = 1. Net % = 1% decrease (always a loss of (10/10)² %).

Answer: 1% decrease

Question 4

Q4: Average of 6 numbers is 18. If one number 12 is replaced by 24, what is the new average?

Solution:

Old sum = 6 × 18 = 108. New sum = 108 − 12 + 24 = 120. New average = 120/6 = 20.

Answer: 20

Question 5

Q5: Find the next number in the series: 2, 6, 12, 20, 30, ?

Solution:

Pattern: n(n+1): 1×2, 2×3, 3×4, 4×5, 5×6 → next 6×7

Next term = 42.

Answer: 42

Question 6

Q6: Pointing to a photo, Ravi said, ‘He is the son of my grandfather’s only son.’ How is the person related to Ravi?

Solution:

Grandfather’s only son = Ravi’s father. Son of Ravi’s father = Ravi himself (or his brother).

In standard puzzle framing with one son implied for the speaker context: the person is Ravi’s brother (or Ravi). Most campus keys take Brother.

Answer: Brother

Question 7

Q7: Identify the error: ‘Neither of the boys have submitted their assignment.’

Solution:

‘Neither’ is singular → verb should be has, not have.

Correct: Neither of the boys has submitted his/their assignment.

Answer: have → has

Question 8

Q8: Arrange the parts into a meaningful sentence: P) to succeed Q) hard work R) is essential S) in any field

Solution:

Natural order: Q-R-P-S → Hard work is essential to succeed in any field.

Answer: QRPS

Question 9: first non-repeating character

Show solution

Problem Statement: Return the first non-repeating character in a string, or ‘_’ if none.

Example:

Input: "swiss"
Output: 'w'

Solution (Java):

public char firstUnique(String s) {
    int[] freq = new int[256];
    for (char c : s.toCharArray()) freq[c]++;
    for (char c : s.toCharArray()) if (freq[c] == 1) return c;
    return '_';
}

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(1)

Question 10: detect cycle in linked list

Show solution

Problem Statement: Return true if the linked list has a cycle.

Example:

Input: 3→2→0→-4→(back to 2)
Output: true

Solution (Java):

public boolean hasCycle(ListNode head) {
    ListNode slow = head, fast = head;
    while (fast != null && fast.next != null) {
        slow = slow.next;
        fast = fast.next.next;
        if (slow == fast) return true;
    }
    return false;
}

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(1)

Question 11: rotate array right by k

Show solution

Problem Statement: Rotate the array to the right by k steps.

Example:

Input: [1,2,3,4,5,6,7], k = 3
Output: [5,6,7,1,2,3,4]

Solution (Java):

public void rotate(int[] nums, int k) {
    k %= nums.length;
    reverse(nums, 0, nums.length - 1);
    reverse(nums, 0, k - 1);
    reverse(nums, k, nums.length - 1);
}
void reverse(int[] a, int l, int r) {
    while (l < r) { int t = a[l]; a[l++] = a[r]; a[r--] = t; }
}

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(1)
