Q5 · Analysis and Judgement
In a survey of 200 teachers, 120 prefer tea, 90 prefer coffee, and 40 prefer both tea and coffee. If a teacher is selected at random, what is the probability that the teacher prefers neither tea nor coffee?
- A. 0.10
- B. 0.15
- C. 0.20
- D. 0.25
Answer and solution
Answer: B
Teachers preferring at least one drink = 120 + 90 - 40 = 170. Teachers preferring neither = 200 - 170 = 30. Probability = 30/200 = 0.15.
Q6 · Number System
If a number 4356X is exactly divisible by 9, what is the smallest digit that can replace X?
- A. 0
- B. 3
- C. 6
- D. 9
Answer and solution
Answer: A
Sum of digits 4+3+5+6=18, which is already divisible by 9. Adding X, we need 18+X divisible by 9. X=0 gives 18, divisible by 9. So smallest digit is 0.
Q7 · Arithmetic Number Series
What is the next number in the series: 2, 6, 12, 20, 30, ?
- A. 40
- B. 42
- C. 44
- D. 46
Answer and solution
Answer: B
Differences are 4, 6, 8, 10, … (increasing by 2). Next difference = 12. So 30 + 12 = 42.
Q8 · Data Interpretation
In a company, the ratio of male to female employees is 5:3. If 20% of males and 30% of females are transferred to another branch, what percentage of the total workforce remains?
- A. 76.25%
- B. 77.5%
- C. 75%
- D. 78%
Answer and solution
Answer: A
Let males = 5x, females = 3x. Total = 8x. Males transferred = 20% of 5x = x, remaining males = 4x. Females transferred = 30% of 3x = 0.9x, remaining females = 2.1x. Total remaining = 4x + 2.1x = 6.1x. Percentage = (6.1x/8x) × 100 = 76.25%.
Q9 · Time and Work
If 12 men can complete a piece of work in 15 days, how many days will 18 men take to complete the same work?
- A. 8 days
- B. 10 days
- C. 12 days
- D. 9 days
Answer and solution
Answer: B
Work is constant. Men and Days are inversely proportional. M₁D₁ = M₂D₂, so 12×15 = 18×D₂. D₂ = 180/18 = 10 days.
Q10 · Vocabulary

- A. Scarce
- B. Plentiful
