Arun has rented out his four storey building i.e, ground, 1st, 2nd and 3rd floor, to ten tenants - Prakash,
Gautam, Ankit, Upendra, Samar, Tarun, Saral, Manoj, Sandeep and Ajit. There are 12 flats, named from O to Z,
such that the number of flats on ground, 1st, 2nd and 3rd floor are three, four, two and three respectively.
Each flat is occupied by one tenant only. The rents paid by these tenants are between Rs. 6k and Rs. 12k (both
including). Rent of a flat at any end, either left or right, i.e., corner at of any floor is not less than that of flat(s)
which is/are not at the end i.e., non-corner flats. The maximum rent paid for any flat at a lower floor is less
than or equal to that for any flat at upper floor.

was Rs. 88k.
(ii) Sandeep lives exactly between Prakash and Gautam on the same floor, and Saral, Manoj and Ajit live on
different floors. Flat T and W are not occupied by anyone.
(iii) Tarun lives in a right end corner at ‘V’ on the ground floor and pays rent of Rs. 7k which is equal to the
rent paid by Gautam who lives on the 1st floor. Total rent collected from any floor was not less than Rs. 10k.

Directions for questions 5 to 9: Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below.

Bhargav and Pranav played a game, in which Bhargav randomly picked four marbles from a bag containing a
large number of marbles of each of four different colours - Blue, Red, Yellow and Grey - and arranged them in
four positions labelled 1, 2, 3 and 4. Pranav knows that the bag has marbles of these four colours but is not
aware of the exact colours of the marbles that Bhargav picked or the positions in which Bhargav placed the
marbles.
In each attempt, Pranav had to guess the colours of the four marbles and positions in which they were placed.
After every guess that Pranav makes, Bhargav provides a three-digit number, called Guess Accuracy Number
(GAN), which provides the following information, for each guess that Pranav makes:
 The first digit (left-most digit) denotes the number of marbles that are of the correct colour and in the
correct position.
 The second digit (middle digit) denotes the number of marbles that are of the correct colour but in the
wrong position.
 The third digit (right-most digit) denotes the number of marbles that are neither of the correct colour nor in
the correct position.
For example, if Pranav guessed the colours of the four marbles to be Grey, Red, Yellow and Grey in positions 1,
2, 3 and 4, respectively, then a GAN of 211 indicates that 2 marbles are of the correct colour and correct
position, and 1 marble is of the correct colour but in the incorrect position and 1 marble is neither of the
correct colour nor in the correct position.
The game ends when Pranav correctly guesses the colour and positions of all the four marbles, and it is known
that Pranav was able to correctly guess the colour and positions of the four marbles in his seventh attempt.
The first table below provides the GAN for each attempt that Pranav made. The second table provides the
colours that Pranav guessed for each position in each attempt, but not necessarily in the order of attempts.

Attempt GAN Guess (by position)


1 202 1 2 3 4
2 040 Grey Yellow Red Blue
3 112 Grey Red Blue Yellow
4 103
Red Blue Blue Red
Grey Yellow Grey Yellow
5 004
Blue Yellow Yellow Yellow
6 022
Blue Red Red Blue
7 400 Yellow Blue Grey Red

5. In the fifth attempt, what is the colour of the marble that Pranav guessed to be in the third position?
a) Grey b) Red c) Blue d) Yellow
6. How many yellow marbles did Bhargav pick ?
a) 0 b) 1 c) 2 d) 3
7. What BEST can be said about the colour of the marble that Bhargav placed in the fourth position?
a) Red b) Blue c) Yellow d) Either Red or Blue

Directions for questions 8 to 9 : Select the correct alternative from the given choices
Hanu, a logician, did not know either the colours of the marbles that Bhargav picked or the positions in
which they were placed, but he was aware of the attempts that Pranav made and the GAN of each attempt.
8. What is the earliest attempt after which Hanu can be sure of the colours and positions of the four
marbles that Bhargav picked?
a) Attempt 2 b) Attempt 4 c) Attempt 3 d) Attempt 5
9. In which of the following attempt did Pranav guess yellow to have been in the first position?
a) Attempt 7 b) Attempt 5 c) Attempt 6 d) Attempt 4

DIRECTIONS for questions 1 to 5: Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below.

In a class of 100 students, there are five class representatives (CRs) – A, B, C, D and E. Each of these five CRs has
19 different friends such that every student in the class (who is not a CR) is a friend of exactly one of these five CRs.
A teacher of that class gave them three assignments – Assignment 1, 2 and 3. After the last day for the submission
of the assignments, the teacher asked all the five CRs to count the number of students in the class who had finished
each assignment. Each of the five CRs included themselves and their friends in the count of those who had finished
each assignment, irrespective of whether they finished it or not. Among those who were not the friends of a
particular CR, the CR counted only the students who had finished the respective assignments.

Each CR along with his friends is referred to as Group A, Group B, Group C, Group D and Group E respectively.
Partial information about the number of students who finished each assignment according to each CR is presented
in the table below.

Q1. What is the total number of students in the class who finished Assignment 1?
a) 76 b) 74 c) 80 d) Cannot be determined
Q2. How many students in Group C finished Assignment 2?
a) 8 b) 12 c) 17 d) Cannot be determined
Q3. What is the minimum number of students in Group E that must have finished Assignment 3?
a) 6 b) 8 c) 11 d) 13
Q4. If, in Group A, the number of students who finished Assignment 3 is 15, how many students in Group C finished
Assignment 3?
Q5. Which CR definitely did not finish Assignment 2?
a) A b) E c) D d) Cannot be determined

DIRECTIONS for questions 6 to 10: Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below.

Rajeev, an MBA student, calculated and plotted the Cumulative Expenses (in USD mn) and Cumulative Revenues
(in USD mn) for the four quarters of a particular year, for four different companies. The Cumulative
Expenses/Cumulative Revenues for any quarter are calculated as the sum of the Expenses/Revenues of all the
quarters in that year until that quarter (including that quarter). Also, it is known that each of the four companies had
positive Revenues and positive Expenses in each quarter of that year. The following scatter plot shows the
Cumulative Expenses and Revenues that Rajeev plotted.
Note: Profit = Revenues – Expenses

Profit Percentage = (Profit⁄Revenues)*100

Q6. If the data points A, B, C… P are represented by their numerical equivalents as 1, 2, 3… 16 respectively, enter
the numerical equivalents of the data points representing the first four
quarters, from first quarter to the fourth quarter, in that order, next to each other, of the company to which the data point
N corresponds.
For example, if A, B, C and P represents the first, second, third and fourth quarters of a company respectively, enter
your answer as ‘12316’.

Q7. How many of the four companies made a profit in the third quarter?
a) 0 b) 1 c) 2 d) 3
Q8. If the company to which the data point M corresponds did not incur a loss in the third quarter, what is the profit
made in the fourth quarter by the company to which the data point G corresponds?
a) USD 0.5 mn b) USD 1 mn c) USD 1.5 mn d) USD 2 mn
Q9. How many companies incurred a loss in the second quarter?
a) 3 b) 2 c) 1 d) Cannot be determined
Q10. For the given year, what is the profit percentage of the company to which the data point A corresponds?
