7. d. The verb was agrees with its subject, problem, and is in the past tense.

8. c. Since the action takes place in the past, the only correct choice is the past perfect had fallen.

11. b. The verb are agrees with the plural noun restaurants.

12. a. The singular verb gets agrees with the singular noun noise.

13. d. A plural subject takes a plural verb; since the subject words is plural, the verb to be carved must also be plural.

14. a. Correct as is. There are two possible errors in this sentence: One is subject/verb agreement and the other is the use of the words between and among. Between is used to compare two things; among is used to compare more than two things. Since the subject relationship is singular, the verb to determine must also be singular. Only choice a makes the comparison between two things and uses the singular verb determines.

15. d. The three underlined elements make a coordinated series; to clearly express their relationship to each other, they need to abide by one consistent grammatical construction. In choice a, the verb must generate breaks the parallelism. In choice b, the word for breaks the parallelism.

It breaks the parallelism. In choice e , none of the three elements are parallel.

16. b. The two underlined elements make a coordinated pair; they need to abide by one grammatical construction. Only in choice b are both verbs in their infinitive form.

17. In choice c, the tense of to ring and to write agree; there is no shift in tense.

18. Choice d is best because it is written in the active voice.

19. e. Choice a is ambiguous: Is everyone submitting to the council? Choices b, c, and d make an illogical shift in verb tense.

=> x = 33.

So, their marks are 42 and 33

45. Two trains are running at 40 km/hr and 20 km/hr respectively in the same direction. Fast train completely passes a man sitting in the slower train in 5 seconds. What is the length of the fast train ?

27 7/9

28 7/9

29 7/9

30 7/9

Answer: Option is A

Explanation:

As Trains are moving in same direction, So, Relative Speed = 40-20 = 20 kmph = 20*(5/18) = 50/9 m/sec

Length of Train= Speed * Time

Length=50/9 ∗5

=250/9 =27 7/9

46. A man can row upstream 10 kmph and downstream 20 kmph. Find the man rate in still water and rate of the stream.

0,5

5,5

15,5

10,5

Answer: Option is C

Explanation:

Please remember, If a is rate downstream and b is rate upstream Rate in still water = 1/2(a+b)

Rate of current = 1/2(a-b)

=> Rate in still water = 1/2(20+10) = 15 kmph => Rate of current = 1/2(20-10) = 5 kmph

47. A man rows 750 m in 675 seconds against the stream and returns in 7 and half minutes. His rowing speed in still water is

4 kmph

5 kmph

6 kmph

7 kmph

Answer: Option is B

Explanation:

Rate upstream = (750/675) = 10/9 m/sec

Rate downstream (750/450) m/sec = 5/3 m/sec Rate in still water = (1/2)*[(10/9) + (5/3)] m/sec.

=25/18 m/sec

=(25/18)*(18/5) kmph

=5 kmph

48. Find the simple interest on the Rs. 2000 at 25/4% per annum for the period from 4th Feb 2005 to 18th April 2005

Rs 25

Rs 30

Rs 35

Rs 40

Answer: Option is A

Explanation:

One thing which is tricky in this question is to calculate the number of days.

Always remember that the day on which money is deposited is not counted while the day on which money is withdrawn is counted.

So lets calculate the number of days now, Time = (24+31+18) days = 73/365 years = 1/5 years

P = 2000

R = 25/4%

S.I. = =2000×25/(4×5×100 )

=25

49. A sum of Rs 12,500 amounts to Rs. 15,500 in the 4 years at the rate of simple interest. Find the rate percent

6 %

7 %

8 %

9 %

Answer: Option is A

Explanation:

S.I.=(P∗R∗T)/100 =>R=S.I.∗100/(P∗T)

So, S.I = 15500 – 12500 = 3000. =>R=3000∗100/(12500∗4 )=6%

50. What is the present worth of Rs. 132 due in 2 years at 5% simple interest per annum

110

120

130

140

Answer: Option is B

Explanation:

Let the present worth be Rs.x

Then,S.I.= Rs.(132 – x)

=› (x*5*2/100) = 132 – x

=› 10x = 13200 – 100x

=› 110x = 13200

x= 120
