MENTAL ABILITY
61. (A) All except Breathing are voluntary activities.
62. (A) The given sequence is combination of two series :
I. 11, (…..), 1001, 10001 and II. 10, 100, 1000.
In I, an extra zero is added between the two 1’s.
So, the missing number is 101.
63. (A) Grandmother is one female, mother is another, wives of four sons are the four females and two
daughters of all four sons are eight females.
So, in all there are 1 + 1 +4 +8 = 14 females
64. (A) Clearly, D is the brother of E and E is the daughter of B. So, D is the son of B. Also, A is the brother
of B. So, A is the uncle of D.
Questions 65 to 71
The given information can be analyzed as follows :
Let ‘O’ denotes optional and ‘C’ denotes compulsory.
A B C D E F
History C C C O - -
Physics - - - - C O
Mathematics - - O - O C
English O - - C - -
Chemistry - O - - - -
One compulsory subject of F is mathematics. F has physics as one of the subjects. So, physics is
optional of F. F has Mathematics as optional and physics as one subject.
So, Physics is the compulsory subject of E. A and D have the same subjects – History and English. D
has History as optional subject and so English is the compulsory subject of D. Subject of A and D are
reverse in regard of optional and compulsory.
So, A has History as compulsory subject and English as optional.
Chemistry is the optional subject of only one teacher. So, it is the optional of B, which only remains.
We know that history is the compulsory subject of three teachers. So, it is compulsory for A, B and C.
D is the teacher having English as her compulsory subject.
So, D is the only Female teacher.

65. (D) D is the only female teacher.
66. (C) Clearly, E has the same subject combination as that of F.
67. (A) Clearly, we have : A < X, Y = B, Z = < C, Z < B, Y < A.
Thus, the sequence becomes :
X > A > Y = B > C > Z.
So, X is the best knowledgeable person.
68. (A) In terms of height, we have :
Manick < Vineet, Vineet < Ravi, Dilip < Jacob, Jacob < Manick.
So, the sequence becomes :
Dilip < Jacob < Manick < Vineet < Ravi.
Clearly, Ravi is the tallest.
69. (A) The movement of the girl are as shown in Fig. (A to B, B to C, C to D, D to A)
Clearly, she is finally movement in the direction DA i.e. North-east.
70. (A) Some authors can be teachers. Some teachers can be men. Some authors can be men. So, the given
items are partly related to each other.
71. (C) Tea and Coffee are two separate unrelated items. But, both of them are beverages.
72. (B) 9 3 663959 3 7891639639
73. (A) Number of persons between Vijay and Jack = 48 – (14 + 17) = 17.
Now, Mary lies in middle of these 17 persons i.e., at the eighth position.
So, number of persons between Vijay and Mary = 8.
74. (D) Since Shilpa and Reena interchange positions, so Shilpa’s new position is the same as Reena’s earlier
position.
This position is 14th from the left (Shilpa’s new position) and 17th from the right (Reena’s earlier
position). Number of girls in the row = (13 +1 +16) =30.
75. (C) All except Sober are emotions.
76. (D) The digits are removed one by one from the end as well as from the beginning in order so as to obtain
the next term of the series.
77. (A) A is the son of B and D is the son of the sister of B. So, A is the cousin of D.
78. (C) Clearly, F is the maternal uncle of D means F is the brother of D’s mother i. e. , F is the brother of C.
C is the sister of b. So, f is the brother of B who is A’s mother. Thus, F is the maternal uncle of A.
So, A and D are the nephews of F i.e., F has two nephews.

80. (B)

A
B
C
D
E
F
Clearly, D is the tall girl from Bangalore.
81. (B) Let A’s age be x. Then, B’s age is 2x. B is twice younger than F i.e. F is twice older than B. So, f’s
age is 4x. C is half the age of A i.e. c’s age is x/2. C is twice the age of D i.e. D is half the age of i.e.
D’s age is x/4. So, the descending order of ages is F, B, A, C, D.
Clearly, f is the oldest and D is the youngest.
82. (D) In terms of age, we have:
B < A <, E < C, E < D, B < C.
Since E lies between A and C, the sequence becomes.
B < A< E < C < D or B < A < E < D < C
Clearly, whichever may be the case, e is elder to B. Hence, (D) is necessarily true.
83. (D) The movement of the man are as shown in fig.

Sumit : 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25 …
Clearly, both will never call out the same number.
90. (B) Since Kapil and Nikunj interchange place, so Nikunk’s new position (21st from left) is the same as
Kapil’s earlier position (8th from right) .
Now, number of boys in the row = (20 +1 +7) = 28.
Now, kapil’s new position is the same as Nikunj’s earlier position i.e., 12th from left.
Kapil’s position from the right = (28 – 11) 17th.
