Q9.
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
From I: Sushma’s husband is Nandini’s brother (only son of mother) Sushma is Nandini’s sister-in-law.
From II: Sushma’s brother = cousin of Nandini’s husband
⇒ Sushma = cousin of Nandini’s husband
= Nandini’s cousin-in-law

Explanation:
From I: A, F > B > C, D, E
Either A or F has secured maximum marks.
From II: Sushma’s brother = cousin of Nandini’s husband
A > F > B
From I and II, A secured the maximum marks.
Q11.
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
From (I), B > C > A
D is not fro sent here, so no conclusion. isom (II)
B > C > D > A
So, A is not likely to win.
Q12.
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
We do not know whether the codes of the given words are in the same order as the order of the words. Therefore, a statement I alone is not sufficient. Again, statement II does not consist of the word ‘go’. Hence, statement 11 alone is not sufficient. Even statements I and II together give the code for ‘may’ only.
Q(13-16):
In the first step, the largest number goes to the leftmost position, pushing the rest of the line rightward. In the next step, the word that comes first in the alphabetical order occupies the second position from the left, pushing the rest of the line rightward. Thus the numbers and words get arranged alternately till all the numbers are placed in the descending order and the words in the alphabetical order.
Q13.
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Input: organize 19 12 stable room 35 72 house
Step I: 72 organize 19 12 stable room 35 houses
Step II: 72 house 35 organize 19 12 stable room 35
Step III: 72 house 35 organize 19 12 stable room
Step IV: 72 house organize 19 room 12 stable
Q14.
Answer: Option E
Explanation:
Input: always go there 39 62 47 time 24
Step I: 62 always go there 39 47 time 24
Step II: 62 always 47 go there 39 time 24
Step III: 62 always 47 go 39 there time 24
Step IV: 62 always 47 go 39 there 24 time
Hence step III will be the last but one.
Q15.
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Step III: 86 box 63 18 gear card 51 new
Step IV: 86 box 63 card 18 gear 51 new
Step V: 86 box 63 card 51 18 gear new
Step VI: 86 box 63 card 51 gear 81 new
Hence 6 – 3 = 3 more steps will be required.
Q16.
Answer: Option E
Explanation:
Step IV: 59 bend 46 card 14 27 win now
Step V: 59 bend 46 card 27 14 win now
Step VI: 59 bend 46 card 27 now 14 win
Since the line is already arranged, there will be no step VII.
