Directions to Solve: In each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and
Give answer:
(A) If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question
(B) If the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question
(C) If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question
(D1) If the data given in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question and
(D2) If the data in both statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.
21On which day in January, Subhas left for Germany ? Statements: I. Subhas has so far spent 10 years in Germany.
II. Subhas friend Anil left for Germany on 15th February and joined Subhas 20 days after Subhass arrival.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Either I or II is sufficient;
D
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Correct Ans:D
Explanation:
Clearly, even from both the given statements, we cannot conclude the exact date of Subhas leaving for Germany. .
D
22Manoj, Prabhakar, Mash and Kamal are four friends. Who among them is the heaviest ? Statements: I. Prabhakar is heavier than Manoj and Kamal but lighter than Akash.
II.Manoj is lighter than Prabhakar and Mask but heavier than Kamal.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Either I or II is sufficient;
D
Both I and II are sufficient
Correct Ans:D
Explanation:
From I, we have, P > M, P > K, A > P.
From II we have, M > K, P > M, A > P.
Combining the above two, we have : A > P > M > K.
Thus, Akash is the heaviest. So, both the statements are required.
D
23In a certain code, '13' means 'stop smoking' and '59' means 'injurious habit'. What do '9' and '5' mean respectively in that code? Statements:I.'157' means 'stop bad habit'. II.'839' means 'smoking is injurious'.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Either I or II is sufficient
D
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Correct Ans:Z
Explanation:
'59' means 'injurious habit' and '157' means 'stop bad habit' (from I). Thus, the common code number '5' stands for common word 'habit'. So, '9' represents 'injurious'. Hence, I is sufficient.
Also, '59' means 'injurious habit' and '839' means 'smoking is injurious'. Thus, the common code number '9' stands for common word 'injurious'. So, '5' represents 'habit'. Thus, II is also sufficient.,
Z
24How much money do Vivek and Suman have together ? Statements:I.Suman has 20 rupees less than what Tarun has. II.Vivek has 30 rupees more than what Tarun has.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Either I or II is sufficient
D
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Correct Ans:Z
Explanation:
From I, we have: S = T - 20.
From II, we have: V = T + 30.
Thus, from both I and II, we have: V + S = (T + 30) + (T - 20) = (2 T + 10).
So, to get the required amount, we need to know the amount that Tarun has.
Z
25Among Monika, Anita, Sonal, Ratna and Tanvy, who came last for the programme ? Statements:I.Monika came after Anita but not after Tanvy. II.Ratna came after Tanvy but not after Sonal.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Either I or II is sufficient
D
Both I and II are sufficient
Correct Ans:D
Explanation:
From I, we have the order : A, M, T.
From II, we have the order: T, R, S.
Combining the above two, we get the order: A, M, T, R, S.
Thus, Sonal came last for the programme.
D
26Who is C's partner in a game of cards involving four players A. B, C and D ? Statements: I. D is sitting opposite to A.
II. B is sitting right of A and left of D.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Either I or II is sufficient
D
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Correct Ans:C
Explanation:
Clearly, each of the given statements shows that B is sitting opposite to C or B is the partner of C.
C
27Among A, B, C, D and E, who is in the middle while standing in a row ? Statements:I.C, who is third to the left of D, is to the immediate right of A and second to the left of E. II.C is second to the left of E, who is not at any of the ends and who is third to the right of A. D is at one of the ends.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Both I and II are sufficient
D
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Correct Ans:C
Explanation:
From each one of I and II, we get the order : A, C, B, E, D. Clearly, B is in the middle.
C
28Among A, B, C, D, E and F, who is the heaviest ? Statements:I.A and D are heavier than B, E and F but none of them is the heaviest. II.A is heavier than D but lighter than C.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Either I or II is sufficient
D
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Correct Ans:A
Explanation:
From I, we conclude that since none of A and D is the heaviest and each one of B, E and F is lighter than both A and D, so C is the heaviest.
A
29Among T, V, B, E and C, who is the third from the top when arranged in the descending order of their weights ? Statements:I.B is heavier than T and C and is less heavier than V who is not the heaviest. II.C is heavier than only T.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Either I or II is sufficient
D
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Correct Ans:A
Explanation:
From I, we have: B > T, B > C, V > B. Thus, V is heavier than each one of B, T and C. But V is not the heaviest. So, E is the heaviest.
Thus, we have the order. E>V>B>T>C or E>V>B>C>T. Clearly, B is third from the top.
A
30Which word in the code language means 'flower' ? Statements:I.'de fu la pane' means 'rose flower is beautiful' and 'la quiz' means 'beautiful tree'. II.'de la chin' means 'red rose flower' and 'pa chin' means 'red tea'.
A
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C
Both I and II are sufficient
D
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Correct Ans:C
Explanation:
From the two statements given in I, the code for the only common word 'beautiful' can be determined.
From the two statements given in II, the code for the only common word 'red' can be determined.
In I and II, the common words are 'rose and 'flower' and the common code words are 'de' and 'la'. So, the code for 'flower' is either 'de' or 'la'.
