B. 24th and 20th
C. 25th and 21st
D. 26th and 22nd
E. None of these
Answer: Option (C)
Explanation:
Number of students behind Manoj in rank = (31 - 7) = 24. So, Manoj is 25th from the bottom. Number of students behind Sachin in rank = (31 - 11) = 20. So, Sachin is 21st from the bottom.
2. In a class of 60, where girls are twice that of boys, Kamal ranked seventeenth from the top. If there are 9 girls ahead of Kamal, how many boys are after him in rank?
A. 3
B. 7
C. 12
D. 23
E. 32
Answer: Option (C)
Explanation:
Let the number of boys be x. Then, number of girls = 2x.
x + 2x = 60 or 3x = 60 or x = 20.
So, number of boys = 20 and number of girls = 40.
Number of students behind Kamal in rank = (60 - 17) = 43.
Number of girls ahead of Kamal in rank = 9.
Number of girls behind kamal in rank = 40 - 9 = 31.
Number of boys behind Kamal in rank = 43 - 31 = 12.

Arithmetical Reasoning
1. The sum of three consecutive multiples of 3 is 72. What is the second largest number?
Answer: Option (B)
Explanation:
Let the numbers be 3x, 3x + 3 and 3x + 6.
Then,
3x + (3x + 3) + (3x + 6) = 72
9x = 63
x = 7
Largest number = 3x + 6 = 27.
=> Second largest number = 27 - 3 = 24
2. Ravi's brother is 3 years senior to him. His father was 28 years of age when his sister was born while his mother was 26 years of age when he was born. If his sister was 4 years of age when his brother was born, what were the ages of Ravi's father and mother respectively when his brother was born?
A. 32 years, 23 years
B. 32 years, 29 years
C. 35 years, 29 years
D. 35 years, 33 years
Answer: Option (A)
Explanation:
When Ravi's brother was born, let Ravi's father's age = x years and mother's age = y years.
Then, sister's age = (x - 28) years. So, x - 28 = 4 or x = 32.
Ravi's age = (y - 26) years. Age of Ravi's brother = (y - 26 + 3) years = (y - 23) years.
Now, when Ravi's brother was born, his age = 0 i.e. y - 23 = 0 or y = 23.
3. A man has a certain number of small boxes to pack into parcles. If he packs 3, 4, 5 or 6 in a parcel, he is left with one over; if he packs 7 in a parcle, none is left over. What is the number of boxes, he may have to pack?
A. 106
B. 301
C. 309
D. 400
Answer: Option (B)
Explanation:
Clearly, the required number would be such that it leaves a remainder of 1 when divided by 3, 4, 5, or 6 and no remainder when divided by 7. Thus, the number must be of the form (L.C.M of 3, 4, 5, 6) x + 1 i.e., (60x + 1 ) and a multiple of 7. Clearly, for x = 5, the number is a multiple of 7. So the number is 301.
4. If 'x' means '-', '÷' means '+', '-' means '÷' and '+' means 'x', then 24 - 4 ÷ 6 x 3 + 4 =?

24 ÷ 4 + 6 - 3 x 4
6 + 6 - 12 = 0
5. A bird lover was asked how many birds he had in the basket. He replied that there were all parrots but six, all pigeons but six, and all koel but six. How many birds he had in the basket in all?

This is possible when there are 3 parrots, 3 pigeons and 3 koels i.e. 9 birds in all.

Cubes and Dice
Direction (1 - 5 ): The sheet of paper shown in the figure (X) given on the left hand side, in each problem, is folded to form a box. Choose from amongst the alternatives (1), (2), (3) and (4), the boxes that are similar to the box that will be formed.
1. Choose the box that is similar to the box formed from the given sheet of paper (X).
A. 1 only
B. 2 and 3 only
C. 1 and 3 only
D. 1, 2 and 4 only
Answer: Option (C)
Explanation:
The fig. (X) is similar to Form V. So when the sheet shown in fig. (X) is folded to form a cube, then the face with shading lies opposite to the free bearing a square, the face bearing a dot lies opposite to a blank face and the face bearing a circle (with a '+' sign inside it) lies opposite to another blank face. The cubes in figures (2) and (4) have the shaded face adjacent to the face bearing a square. Therefore, the cubes in these two figures cannot be formed. Hence, only cubes in figures (1) and (3) can be formed.
2. Which of the following finished patterns can be obtained from the piece of cardboard (X) shown below?
Answer: Option (A)
Explanation:
The pattern on fig. (X) and also the fact that the faces are rectangle, indicate that only fig. (1) can be obtained by folding fig. (X).
3. Choose the box that is similar to the box formed from the given sheet of paper (X).
A. 1 and 3 only
B. 2 and 4 only
C. 3 and 4 only
D. 1 and 4 only
Answer: Option (A)
Explanation:
The fig. (X) is similar to Form I. So, when the sheet shown in fig. (X) is folded to form a box (cuboid), then the two rectangular-shaded faces lie opposite to each other, two rectangular white faces lie opposite to each other and the two square shaped faces (one shaded and one white) lie opposite to each other. Clearly, the cuboids shown in figures (2) and (4) cannot be formed as in each of the two cuboids the two shaded rectangular faces appear adjacent to each other. So, only the cuboids in figures (1) and (3) can be formed.
4. When the following figure is folded to form a cube, how many dots lie opposite the face bearing five dots?
Answer: Option (C)
Explanation:
The given figure is similar to Form III. Therefore, when this figure is folded to form a cube then the face bearing three dots will lie opposite the face bearing five dots.
5. Choose the box that is similar to the box formed from the given sheet of paper (X).
A. 1 only
B. 1, 2 and 3 only
C. 2 and 3 only
D. 1, 2, 3 and 4
Answer: Option (D)
Explanation:
The fig. (X) is similar to the Form V. So, when the sheet in fig. (X) is folded to form a cube, then the face bearing a dot appears opposite to a blank face, the face bearing a '+' sign appears opposite to another blank face and the face bearing a circle appears opposite to the third blank face. Clearly, all the four cubes shown in figures (1), (2), (3) and (4) can be formed.
