LOGICAL REASONING PRACTICE QUESTIONS (AG Extra-1)

Solutions

For questions 1 and 2:

1.

If Chirag plays exactly 3 games then the above two cases are possible.Now, if Amar and Brijesh play two games each such that
none of the games is played by both of them then the following four cases are possible:

Now, Amar doesn’t play Hockey in Case (ii) and so option (a) is not definitely true. Though Football is played by exactly one player
in Case (iii), Brijesh doesn’t play Squash. So option (b) is not definitely true.
Squash is played by exactly one player in Cases (i) and (ii) and so option (c) is not definitely true.
Hockey and Cricket are played by exactly two players each in all the cases and so this statement is definitely true.

2. Taking into account all the conditions specified in the

question we get the arrangement given above. Note
that Brijesh can’t play Football as he plays Squash.
Hence, among the options “Brijesh plays Cricket” is
definitely true.

For questions 3 and 4:

Using the above Venn diagram we have:

2+b+c+d=5
3 + a + c + d =5
1+a+b+d=5
Solving we get, b – c = 2, a – c = 1 and b – a = 1.
So, b + c = 3 – d. Now, b + c 0, so d = 0, 1, 2 or 3.
But, b – c and b + c should be of the same parity (odd/
even) for b and c to be natural numbers.
Hence, b + c = 2 which gives b = 2 and c = 0.
Note that b + c = 0 gives c < 0. Hence, it is rejected.
On solving we get, b = 2, c = 0, a = 1 and d = 1.
5.

For questions 6 and 7:

From condition (ii), we have the following order of books on the three subjects – Mathematics (M), Chemistry (C), Physics (P) or
Physics (P), Chemistry (C) , Mathematics (M).
Let each book be designated by the first letter of its topic (e.g. A stands for Algebra). Using conditions (iii) and (iv), we get the
following different sequences (1 to 7 means first to last):

6. If E is placed immediately before K, then G (Geometry book) must be placed at either the second or the seventh position.

7. If a Chemistry book (either I or O) is placed adjacent to T, then G must be placed before K.

For questions 8 and 9:

There are two possible cases (as shown above) because A

scores 3 points which is possible with a Win and a Draw only.
And C scores 1 point which means a Draw and a Loss. So in
the first case, A defeats C and in the second case A defeats B.
Since A has won a match and A scores exactly one goal, it
means that this goal should have been scored by A in the
match in which A wins. So A wins by 1-0 and the other match
of A gets drawn 0-0. In the second case, if AC is a draw with
score 0-0, then it means that C scores a goal against B in the
match that C loses, which implies that B has to score at least
2 goals to win against C, which is not possible because B
scores exactly one goal in the tournament. Hence, only the
first case is feasible and the results are:
Result of the Match – A v/s C: 1-0
Result of the Match – A v/s B: 0-0
Result of the Match – B v/s C: 1-1

10. If no other Red bead is to be placed opposite the Striped Red bead then the possible arrangements are:
11. If one of the other two Red beads is to be placed opposite the Striped Red bead then the possible arrangements are:
For questions 12 to 14:

12. The sum of the number of friends of Chaman and Aman cannot be determined.
13. The exact number of friends can be determined for only two of the students.
14. The total number of friends = 30 + 13 + 25 = 68.

For questions 15 & 16:

From statements (ii) and (iii), it can be inferred that neither Jasneet nor Saurabh was born in December. It is also given in
statement (v) that Vikram was born before Vikrant. Hence, Vikrant must’ve been born in December and is the youngest.
Statements (i), (iv) and (v) collectively suggest that the surname of Vikrant must be Singh. It is also known that Agarwal was
not born in January. The following case arises on the basis of the above conclusions:

Statement (v) indicates that the month in which Agarwal was born was March. Further Analysis leads to the following table.

17. The following six cases of distribution are possible

Statements (i) to (v), in that order, reject cases 1 to 5. Hence, the only case possible for distribution is Case 6.
The number of employees who are not chefs = 100 –18x – y

18. 100 – 18x – y = 40

and y = 6
18x = 54 ⇒x = 3
The number of chefs who can’t make Continental = 15 + 15 + 3 = 33

19. 100 – 18x – y > 5x

23x + y < 100
The maximum possible values of x is 4.
Hence, the maximum possible number of chefs who can make exactly one cuisine = 15 × 4 = 60

20. The maximum possible sum of book numbers for shelf 1 is 12 and minimum possible sum of book numbers for
shelf 3 is 7.

Using option (a) there are no arrangements possible because if all the books of a number are kept on same
shelf then the maximum possible sum of book numbers for shelf 1 can be 9 and the sum of book numbers for
either of the other two shelves will be higher than 9. This will contradict condition (iv).
Using option (b) there are no arrangements possible as at least one of the shelves will have two books of the same number.
Using option (c) there are no arrangements possible.
Using option (d), one of the possible arrangements is:

21. Let the age (in years) of Aman, Bharat, Chandu and Dev be a, b, c and d respectively.
Aman is older than Dev and Chandu is older than Aman. So c > a > d.
Since Bharat is older than Dev, either Bharat or Chandu is the oldest among the four.

For Ques 22 & 23

The given information can be tabulated as shown below:

22. The statement indicates that Anju’s school is
located closer to the colony than Dimple’s school.
Therefore, Anju’s school is 150 units away from the
colony.

23. If Anju’s school is 200 units away from the colony, it

indicates that the distance of Dimple’s school from the
colony is 150 units. As Dimple’s school is located in
West, the school in West is 150 units away from the
colony.

24. The given information can be tabulated as shown below in two possible cases.

25. Either Ram or Mohan is the lier as they make contradictory claims about the car owned by Roy. Hence, Raja and Roy always
speak the truth. The only possible arrangement is given below.

For questions 26 to 28 :

Jasneet, Vikram, Puneet, Vikrant and Saurabh must have worked for 1, 2, 2, 3 and 4 days respectively.

26. The table given below can be formed from the given information.

27.

It can be seen that the two guards who work on Thursday cannot be
uniquely determined.
28 . It can be seen from the tables made for the previous questions that Vikram and Jasneet cannot work together on Thursday.

For questions 29 to 31:

Let Lathe, Drill, Boring, Milling and Welding machines be represented by L, D, B, M and W
respectively. Table-I shows the processing times of different machines. Table-II shows the
possible combinations of machines and their total time.

29. Product B has the highest manufacturing time amongthe four. As per the table, the
combination of machines used for B is either LMW or LMB. So the manufacturing time of B is
either 85 min or 80 min.

30. As the processing time of Lathe machine has increased, the new total time for different
combinations is tabulated below.

The order of the manufacturing times of the four products is either B > C > A > D or B > A > C > D. As product A requires Boring
machine, its manufacturing time is either 70 min or 85 min.

31. As per the conditions, the possible combinations are LDM, LMB, DMB and LDB. Therefore, product B will have the combination
LDM and the manufacturing time will be 40 + 30 + 25 = 95 min.

For questions 32 to 34 :

Let the number of fit sportsmen who play Hockey be x. From statement (ii), the number of unfit sportsmen who play Hockey is also
x. From statements (v) and (vii), the number of fit sportsmen who play Cricket is 1250 and the number of unfit sportsmen who play
Cricket is 0. From statement (i), we can deduce that x is equal to 2500. From statement (iv), the number of sportsmen who play
Hockey for Under-19 team is 4000 and the number of sportsmen who play Hockey for Above-19 team is 1000. Further analysis
leads to the tables given below.

32. The total number of sportsmen in Khelabad is 6250.

33. The required ratio is 1 : 4.
34. The total number of fit sportsmen who play for Above-19 team is 1000.
35. Each player played six matches and had a different score. This means that the maximum that a player could score was 24
points. Since they all had different scores which should be multiples of 4 (since no match ended in a draw), the points scored by
Anu, Banu, Charu, Dia, Esha, Fiza and Gita must have been 24, 20, 16, 12, 8, 4 and 0 respectively.

For questions 36 to 38: The given information can be tabulated as shown below.

36. The complete information can be determined only for Vikrant and Vinay.
37. Either Vikram or Vijay.

38. If Vikram recommended My Funny Nose, then Vijay must have recommended Abra Ka Dabra and Vipin must have
recommended I love You. Hence, all the combinations can be determined.

39. Mr. Hari is the head of lab Alpha.

40. Lab Alpha

41. Both Kali and Dia got all the answers incorrect.

42. Either A or F can be used in a day. Among the paths D, E and G, at most two paths can be used in a day.

Case I: If paths A/F and B are used in a day, the following cases are possible:
(i) A/F, B, C, D
(ii) A/F, B, C, G

Case II: If path A/F is used but path B is not used, the following cases are possible:
(i) A/F, C, E, D
(ii) A/F, C, E, G
(iii) A/F, C, D, G

Case III: If paths A and F are not used, the following cases are possible:
(i) B, C, E, D
(ii) B, C, E, G
(iii) B, C, D, G

In all the possible cases, path C is definitely used.

43. The given information can be tabulated as shown below:

Hence, Rajul lives in Rampur.

44. The given information can be tabulated as:

45. Kumar must definitely have performed with GTH as GTH performed in both the second and the third slot
on the second day.

46. All the given statements could be true.

For questions 47 to 49:

Let N(1) = N(6) = a, N(2) = N(5) = b, N(3) = c and N(4) = d. Here a, b and c are distinct (as given). Also, b and d cannot be the
same. Hence, 2a + 2b + c + d = 10 (the total number of people). 2(a + b) + c + d = 10 The least possible value of ‘a + b’ is 3 and it
is evident from the above equation that none among a, b, c and d can be greater than or equal to 4. The only possible integer
solution to the above equation is when a, b, c and d are equal 1, 2, 3 and 1 respectively. The following table can thus be concluded:

From statement (ii) and the above table it is evident that Chuck’s floor number is greater than 3 and hence from statement (i)
and the above table it can be concluded that Chuck and Berry live on floor 5. Subsequently, Kirk and David live on floor 4 and
floor 3 respectively. Clapton, Jimmy and Hammett must occupy floor 1 and floor 2 (in no particular order), as they live below
David. From statement (iii) it can be concluded that Gilmour and Page live on floor 3 with David. Finally, it can be concluded
from statement (iv) that Jimmy and Eric live on floor 1 and floor 6 respectively. The table can be completed as given below

47. Difference = 3 – 2 = 1

48. Eric lives on floor 6

49. Jimmy lives alone on floor 1. The rest 9 people live on floors higher than his

50. From (iii), as Shama and Hema are in the same car, Radha must be in a different car. From (v), either Divya or Charu must be in
the same car as Radha and the other must be in the same car as Kiran. As Vicky cannot be in the same car as Hema, Kiran or
Charu, he must be in the same car as Radha and Divya. From (i), Hari and Naresh are in
the same car with Shama and
Hema. Further analysis leads to the following table
51. Let Anu, Bindu, Candy, Dolly, Emran, Fiza, Gauri and Hemant be represented by A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H respectively. The
only possible arrangement is shown below

Hence, none of the statements is false.

52. Let Akansh, Nakul, Phalguni and Sharad be represented by A, N, P and S respectively. On the basis of statements (i), (ii) and
(iii) the following six cases (I to VI) are possible.

Statements (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) and (viii) contradict cases IV, III, V, II and VI respectively. Only case I is feasible and so it is the correct
arrangement.

52. Kolkata

53.Mumbai

For questions 54 and 55:

Let Alveston, Blackpool, Chelsea and Dunstable be represented by A, B, C and D respectively.

From statement (iii), we can conclude that C and D played the final match. From statement (iv), D was not the Champion, so
D must have lost to C in the final and C was the Champion. In the three matches, as each team scored a different total
number of goals, the number of goals scored by the teams must be 1, 2, 3 and 4, in no particular order. As A and B lost the
semifinals, they must have scored 1 and 2 goals, in no particular order. Also, as C was the Champion of the tournament, it must
have scored 3 goals and D must have scored 4 goals.
As C played two matches and won both the matches, it must have scored at least 2 goals in the semifinal, as the least
number of goals scored by any team was 1. Also, to win each match, C must have scored at least 1 goal in each match. So C
must have scored 1 goal in one match and 2 goals in the other. C must have won by a margin of 2 – 1 against A in the semifinal
and by a margin of 1 – 0 against D in the final. The table given below illustrates the situation:
54. 1

55. Chelsea, the Champion of the tournament, scored 2 goals in the semifinal.
55. Let Santro, Wagon R, Zen, Ritz, Yuva, Innova, Corolla, Matiz, Xylo and Scorpio be represented by S, W, Z, R, Y, I, C, M, X and
Sc respectively. The arrangement can be started by fixing the positions of Z and Sc at the extreme left of the two rows. X can be
parked either to the immediate right of Z/Sc or in the middle of the row. If X is parked in the middle of the row, statement
(iv) is violated. Further analysis leads to the following table:

Therefore, the number of cars parked between Corolla and Matiz cannot be the same as the number of cars parked between
Scorpio and Xylo.

For questions 56 and 57:

Let Saurabh, Yubraj, Vajendar, Gombzi and Ambata be represented by S, Y, V, G and A respectively. Let Delhi Devils and Kolkata
Riders be represented by DD and KR respectively. From statement (ii), either 2nd-3rd players or 3rd-4th players were the two
batsmen. Therefore, the player picked 3rd was definitely a batsman and the players picked 1st and 5th were bowlers. From statement
(iv), A and Y could be either 1st and 4th players or 2nd and 5th players, in no particular order. From statement (iii), Y could not be the
player picked 1st or 5th.

56.

Hence, Yubraj was definitely not a batsman picked by Delhi Devils.

57. If Saurabh was a bowler, then Gombzi was definitely a batsman picked 3rd.

58. Let heights of Ashu, Banu, Charu, Diya, Ellie and Fana be represented by A, B, C, D, E and F respectively. The Science student
mentioned should be Ashu only. From the first statement, E > D > A and B > A. From the second statement, C > A > F. Therefore,
Fana is the shortest among the six students

For questions 59 to 61:

In one group the number of matches won by different players were 3, 2, 1 and 0. In the other group the number of matches won by
different players were 2, 2, 1 and 1. For the two players who played the final, the number of matches won by them in Round-I could
be either 3 or 2 and they must have won their respective matches in Round-II. As Sonu lost exactly two matches in the tournament,
he must have lost a match in Round-I and the final match. Thus it can be concluded that the number of matches won by Kishan,
Karan and Arjun in Round-I was one each. As Ram and Kishan were in the same group in Round-I, Ram must have lost all his
matches in Round-I and hence it can be concluded that Karan and Arjun were in the same group in Round-I. As Lakhan won more
matches than Gopi, both of them were in the same group as Ram and Kishan. The conclusions can be tabulated as shown below:
59. Gopi won the tournament.

60. The difference between the numbers of matches won by Gopi and Monu respectively in the tournament was two.

61. The total number of matches won by Lakhan in the tournament was 3.

For questions 62 and 63 :

The total number of students in the class is 96 and the number of students who opt for Chemistry is 31;
so the number of students who opt for Physics only, Mathematics only and both Mathematics and
Physics but not Chemistry will be 65.

From the given information, the number of students who opt for: Physics only = 26, Mathematics only =
26, both Mathematics
and Physics but not Chemistry = 13.

a + b + 13 = 25
a + b = 12

62. As the number of students who opt for Mathematics is the maximum among the three subjects, b > a. As we have to maximise
‘a’, we get a = 5 and b = 7.

63. If the exact number of students who opt for Mathematics is known, a and b can be calculated. The rest three statements don’t
give any new information.

For questions 64. and 65 :

As four subjects are given and each person studies exactly two subjects (which are not the same as that of any other person) the
number of possible cases must be 4C2 = 6. The possible combinations are shown below in the table.

This means that each subject is studied by exactly three students. The common subject studied by Qureshi, Sonal and Umesh can
be Genetics only. Thus, Umesh and Radha must be having Physiology as their Major subject. Subsequently, Qureshi
and Radha must be having Cell Theory as their Minor subject. The conclusions can be tabulated as given below

64. Physiology and Cell Theory

65. Qureshi

For questions 66 to 68:

From statements (i), (iv) and (vi), either the person who works in Marketing or the person who works in IT belongs to Jaipur,
and the other belongs to Pune. From statements (iii), (iv) and (v), it can be concluded that either Chintan or Engela belongs
to Jaipur and the other belongs to Pune. From statements (ii) and (v), Farooq belongs to Bikaner. Now only Akshita can be
the one who belongs to Kashipur and works in Operations. So Devina belongs to Meerut. From statement (v), Farooq works
in Finance and so Babita works in Academics. The conclusions made thus far can be tabulated as given below.

For questions 69 to 71:

Let Parjit, Manjit, Charjit, Daljit and Jasjit be represented by P, M, C, D and J respectively. From statement (ii), the annual incomes
(in Rs. Lakhs) of (M, D) can be (75, 60) or (60, 45), not necessarily in the same order.
From statement (vi), one of the three cases is true:

Case I: The annual incomes (in Rs. Lakhs) of (P, D and J) are (45, 60 and 75), not necessarily in the same order. This case
is not possible because it violates statement (ii).

Case II: The annual incomes (in Rs. Lakhs) of (P, D and J) are (40, 45 and 50), not necessarily in the same order. Now the
annual income of D must be Rs. 45 lakhs and hence the annual income of M must be Rs. 60 lakhs. Thus, annual income of C is
Rs. 75 lakhs. This case is not possible because it violates statement (iii).

Case III: The annual incomes (in Rs. Lakhs) of (P, D and J) are (40, 50 and 60), not necessarily in the same order. So the
annual income of D is Rs. 60 lakhs and hence the annual income of M is Rs 75 lakhs and that of C is Rs. 45 lakhs.
From statement (v), J was the older of the two females and hence the annual income of J was Rs. 50 lakhs and the annual
income of P was Rs. 40 lakhs. Also, C is the younger female director. Thus it can be concluded that: Age of D > Age of P >
Age of J > Age of M > Age of C.

The conclusions made thus far can be shown as below.

For questions 72 and 73:

Let Akash, Binay, Chatur, Deepak, Ehsan, Fardeen be represented by A, B, C, D, E and F respectively. From statement(ii), it can be
inferred that the two coins received by A, D and F must be (1, 1), (1, 2) and (2, 2), in no particular order. Also, from statement (iii), it
can be concluded that the six coins received by A, D and F must be the six distributed by B, C and E. From statement (iv), B
received Rs. 6 and hence must have got a coin of Rs. 2 from each of A, D and F. Also, C received the same amount as F, which
must be Rs. 2 (in form of two Re.1 coins) for each. Further analysis leads to the following table:
72. Akash (Rs. 4)

73. Rs. 3 – Re. 1 = Rs. 2

For questions 74 and 75:

From statement (vi), Bachan’s car is the second from the front and is Red in colour. Hence, from statement (ii), Mallya’s car is
the first from the front. Now, Mallya’s car is not Red in colour. From statement (v), Mallya’s car is not Black in colour as it
cannot be the first from the front. Similarly, from statement (vii), Mallya’s car is not White in colour as it cannot be the first
from the front. From statement (viii), Mallya’s car is not Silver in colour. From statement (iii), it can be concluded that Mallya is
driving the Violet Skoda. Now, Bachan is not driving Skoda. From statement (i), Bachan is not driving Accord as it is not Red in
colour. From statement (ii), Bachan is not driving Audi. From statement (vii), Bachan is not driving Honda City as it must be behind
at least two cars. Therefore, it can be concluded that Bachan is driving BMW. Further analysis leads to the following table:

For questions 76 to 78 :
Let Anu, Bini, Cara, Dev, Esha, Fiza, Goru, Hina, Iti, Jai, Kaya and Loni be represented by A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K and L
respectively.
From statement (i), two delegates from each region were in one group and one delegate was in the other group. From statement (ii),
the number of delegates from the regions ‘North, East, West and South’ in Apex and Pinnacle were ‘1, 1, 1 and 2’ and ‘2, 2, 2 and 1’
respectively. From statement (iv), K and I were in Apex whereas B was in Pinnacle.

Case I: E was in Pinnacle.

As L and D were in different groups, A was in Pinnacle and hence G was in Apex. Subsequently, C and J were in Pinnacle
and so H was in Apex. Hence, E and F were in Pinnacle. The conclusions made thus far can be tabulated as given below

Case II: E was in Apex.

F and H were in Pinnacle. As H was in Pinnacle, C was in Apex and hence J and G were in Pinnacle. Thus, A was in Apex and
D and L were in Pinnacle. The conclusions made thus far can be tabulated as given below.
76. Jai was definitely in Pinnacle.

77. If Bini and Anu were in the same group, E was in Pinnacle. Therefore, Hina and Esha were in different groups.

78. Looking at both the cases we can say that Fiza was definitely not in Apex.

For questions 79 and 80 :

The situation given in the question can be shown with the help of a Venn diagram.

Let p, q, and r be equal to k – d, k and k + d, not necessarily in the same order.

We have,
a + 15a + q + r = 70 …(i)
a + p = 15 …(ii)
a + r = 19 …(iii)
Adding (i) and (ii), we get
17a + p + q + r = 85
17a + 3k = 85
The only possible values of ‘a’ and ‘k’ are 2 and 17.
Therefore, p = 13, q = 21 and r = 17.
As the number of families reading Hindi newspapers is more than those reading Marathi newspapers, the number of families
reading only Marathi newspapers is either 10 or 25.

79. The total number of families in the society is either 113 or 128.

80. The number of families reading both Marathi and Hindi newspapers is 23.

For questions 81 to 83:

Let us try to write the possible arrangements of the bus stops by writing them in a row (left to right means first to last).
From statements (i) and (iii) we can say that Q was exactly in the middle of P and T and the order of the three was ‘T Q P’.

Case I: There were two bus stops between T and Q.

T__Q__P
This violates statement (i) which states that the bus reached S from P.

Case II: There was exactly one bus stop between T and Q.
(a) T _ Q _ P _ _
Only one arrangement is possible:
TUQVPSR
(b) _ T _ Q _ P _
This violates statements (i) and (iv) combined.
(c) _ _ T _ Q _ P
This violates statement (i) which states that the bus reached S from P.

Case III: There was no bus stop between T and Q.

(a) T Q P _ _ _ _
Two arrangements are possible:
T Q P S U V R and
TQPUSRV
(b) _ T Q P _ _ _ and (c) _ _ T Q P _ _
These violate statement (iv) and statement (ii) respectively.
(d) _ _ _ T Q P _ and (e) _ _ _ _ T Q P
These violate statements (i) and (ii) combined.

The only possible arrangements are:

I: T U Q V P S R
II: T Q P S U V R
III: T Q P U S R V

81. T was definitely the first bus stop among the seven.

82. The last bus stop among the seven was either R or V.

83. The time taken by the bus to travel from P to S and from T to Q was the same. But the average speed of the bus was different in
the two cases. Hence, the distance between P and S was not the same as that between T and Q. This is followed by arrangements I
and III. For both the arrangements the bus stop immediately before R was S.

84. As Chitta is immediately behind Farrar, Chitta must be the last person in the queue. As Bukka is immediately in front of Ganesh
and Ganesh is not immediately in front of Farrar, we get two possible cases.

For questions 85 and 86:

The given information can be tabulated as shown below.

For questions 87 to 89:

Let Ashish, Bhola, Coral, Deva, Emran, Fardeen, Gopi and Hemant be represented by A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H respectively.
We can start arranging by fixing the position of F using statement (iii). This gives us two possible cases.

Case I: F is facing the center.

From statement (iii), as H is sitting immediately to the left of B, B must be facing away from the center. From statement (ii), as
E is sitting two places to the right of H, H must be facing the center and hence G, who is sitting three places to the left of E,
must be facing away from the center. The conclusions made thus far can be shown in the figure given below.

(Arrows indicate the direction in which the person is facing.) From here we can conclude that G, who is sitting two places to the right
of Bhola, is facing away from the center

Case II: F is facing away from the center.

From statement (iii), as H is sitting immediately to the left of B, B must be facing the center. From statement (ii), as E is sitting
two places to the right of H, H must be facing away from the center and hence G, who is sitting three places to the left of E,
must be facing the center. In this case statement (iv) is violated. The conclusions made thus far can be shown in the figure
given below:

(Arrows indicate the direction in which the person is facing.) Further analysis (following Case I) leads to the final arrangement given
below.

For questions 90 and 91:

Let the total number of females in Noland be 100Y.
Therefore, the total number of males in Noland = 120Y.
Total Urban population of Noland = Total Rural population of Noland = 110Y.
The number of literate females in Noland = 80% of 100Y = 80Y
The number of illiterate females in Noland = 100Y – 80Y = 20Y
The number of literate males in Noland = 4 × 20Y = 80Y
The number of illiterate males in Noland = 120Y – 80Y = 40Y
The number of illiterate people in Rural Noland 2/3(20Y + 40Y) = 40Y
The number of illiterate people in Urban Noland = 60Y – 40Y = 20Y
Further analysis leads to the table given below.

90. The number of literate males in Rural Noland = 50Y.

The total number of females in Urban Noland = 60Y + 10Y = 70Y.
Hence, the answer = 50Y : 70Y = 5 : 7.

91. Given: 60Y – 20Y = 1000.

Hence, Y = 25 and 220Y = 5,500.
For questions 92 to 94:
Let Andrew, Joseph, Parry and Lucas be represented by A, J, P and L respectively. Let the shifts be called 1 st to 7th (in the
order of their occurrence).
From statement (i), it can be concluded that A operated in the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th shifts.
From statement (ii), it can be concluded that J operated along with A in the 3rd shift.
From statement (iii), it can be concluded that P operated in the 4th shift.
From statement (iv), it can be concluded that the two shifts in which L operated were 2nd and 6th. Hence, P operated in the 1 and 7th
st

shifts.
From statement (v), it can be concluded that J operated in the 5th shift along with A.
The conclusions made thus far can be shown as given below

For questions 95 to 97:

Let Ashish, Bimal, Coral, Disha and Eshan be represented by A, B, C, D and E respectively.
After filling up the initial data, it can be concluded that B gave a presentation on Business & Ethics and Globalisation on Tuesday
and Thursday respectively.
The topic on which A and D gave a presentation on Monday and Friday respectively was not among Corruption, Human Cloning,
Business & Ethics and Globalisation. Therefore, from statement (iii), A and D gave a presentation on Terrorism on Monday and
Friday respectively. Similarly, from statement (vi), C and A gave a presentation on Business & Ethics on Monday and Friday
respectively.
Therefore, D gave a presentation on Globalisation on Monday and from statement (v), D gave a presentation on Corruption and
Human Cloning on Tuesday and Thursday respectively.
Further analysis leads to the final table as given below.

For questions 98 to 100:

Let Aadi, Bina, Cara, Diya, Ema, Fiza, Gauri and Hari be represented by A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H respectively. The
number of neighbours of the person living in:
P1 and P5 = 2;
P2, P4 and P7 = 3;
P6 and P8 = 4;
P3 = 5.
From statement (v), it can be concluded that A lives in P1 or P2 or P6. From statement (i), A cannot live in P6 as then A and C
will not have the same number of neighbours. From statement (ii), A and F have a common neighbour – D – and hence it can
be concluded that A lives in P2 and D lives in P3. From statement (iii), E lives in P6 and hence G lives in P1. From statements (iv)
and (i), it can be concluded that C lives in P4. Thus it can be concluded that one between B and H lives in P5 and the other
lives in P7. The following figure illustrates these conclusions:

98. Either Bina or Hari lives in P7.

99. Aadi has three neighbours.
100. Gauri is not a neighbour of Diya.
For questions 101 to 103 :
From statements (i), (ii) and (vi), it can be concluded that Alfred was the first person to reach the museum. From
statements (i), (ii) and (iv), it can be concluded that Dirk was wearing the Yellow shirt.
Hence, either Alfred or Buckley was wearing the Purple shirt and the other one was wearing the White shirt. From statement
(v), it can be concluded that Alfred was wearing the Purple shirt while Buckley was wearing the White shirt. Further
analysis leads to the following table:

101. Buckley
102. Cherry
103. Only statement I is correct.
