Answers:-

1.The students who have attempted at least 7 questions and at most 10 questions are S1, S2, S3, S4, S7, S8, S9 and S10. Hence, 8 in number. Hence e.
2. The questions that are attempted by at least three students who are not 17 years old are Q2, Q4, Q6, Q8, Q9, Q10, Q11, Q14, Q15, Q16, Q17 and Q 20. Hence, 12 in number.
3. The questions who obey the condition given in the question Q4, Q5, Q13, Q17 and Q20
Hence,5 in number.
From the information given in the question, the following table can be drawn

4.Since, each of the eight states viz. Delhi, Bihar, Gujarat, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, UP and MP are connected to at least one other state by rail, we can conclude that Jharkhand and Orissa are the two states that are not connected to the other states by rail.
So, the possible states to which each state might be connected is given below. Remember that each state is connected to exactly three other states by rail.
Delhi: Haryana, Rajasthan and UP.
Bihar: Gujarat, Haryana, Rajasthan, UP and MP
Gujarat: Bihar, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, UP and MP
Punjab: Gujarat, Haryana, Rajasthan, UP and MP
Haryana: Delhi, Bihar, Gujarat, Punjab, Haryana and MP
Rajasthan: Delhi, Bihar, Gujarat and Punjab . Hence c.

UP: Delhi, Bihar, Gujarat, Punjab and MP
MP: Gujarat, Bihar, Punjab, Haryana and UP
So, for Delhi all the three states to which it is connected by rail can be exactly determined. Hence d.
5.Given that Rajasthan is not connected to Punjab by rail but Bihar is connected to Haryana by rail.
The table will look like as follows:

Now, for Delhi, Bihar, Haryana and Rajasthan, the three states to which they are connected by rail.
Gujarat: Two states out of Punjab, UP and MP
Punjab: Two states out of Gujarat, UP and MP
UP: Two states out of Gujarat, Punjab and MP
MP: Two states out of Gujarat, Punjab and UP
Therefore, except for option (b) every other statement is possible.
6.There are 99 – 63 + 1 = 37 different numbers between 99 and 63.
175/5 = 35.
7.So, maximum possible aggregate number of pens put together in all the 175 boxes = M
M = 5(99 + 98 +.....+ 66 + 65)
M = 5(99 x 50 – 32 x 65)/2 = 7175. Hence a.
8.There are 99 – 63 + 1 = 37 different numbers between 99 and 63.
175/5 = 35.
9. The minimum possible number of pens put together in all the 175 boxes = N
N = 5(63 + 64 +.....96 + 97) = 7175 – 5(99 + 98 – 64 – 63) = 7175 – 350 = 6825.hecen e.

There are two bags with the money lender, i.e. Bag 4 and Bag 9 in which the total number of coins of denomination Rs. 10 is definitely 0.hence c.
10)
Maximum possible worth of coins in Bag 1 is 40 + 18 x 10 = 40 + 180 = Rs. 220 (Assuming that there are 18 coins of denomination Rs. 10)
Following the same logic the maximum possible worth of coins in bags 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 is Rs. 54.5, Rs. 56.5, Rs. 56.5, Rs. 110.5, Rs. 69.5, Rs. 142, Rs. 124.5, Rs. 76 and Rs. 212 respectively.
So, maximum possible worth of all the coins in any of the ten bags could be Rs. 212. Hence e
11.Minimum possible worth of coins can be in the bag 2
Minimum possible worth of coins in bag B can be Rs. 24.5 + Rs. (30/4) = Rs. 32
Here we have assumed that there are 30 coins of denomination 25 paise in bag 2. Hence b.
12.otal worth of coins of denomination 50 paise, Rs. 2 and Rs. 5 in the bag 10 = Rs. 62
Since the total worth of all the coins in the bag 10 is Rs. 71, therefore the number of coins of denomination Rs. 10 is zero
Let ‘a’ be the number of coins of denomination Re. 1 in the bag
Therefore, the number of coins of denomination 25 paise in the bag 10 is 14 – a
So, a + (15 – a)/4 = 71 – 62 = 9
Therefore, the value of ‘a’ is 7.
So, the number of coins of denomination Re.1 is 7. Hence c.
13.We have the sum total of all the points with P, Q, R, S and T to be 75. Since, P was the one to score the highest number of points which were 24.
So the total of points scored by Q, R, S and T was 51.
The minimum possible number of points scored by T is 11.
If T scores a minimum of 11, then S scores a minimum of 12 , R scores a minimum of 13 and Q scores a minimum of 14.The total amounts to 50.Now the extra 1 point can be adjusted such that Q scores 15 and the total will be 51.
Now for 24 to be possible there is just one set of 5, 5, 5, 5, 4 points.
If R scores 13, that means it is 4 * 3 + 1 or 4*2 + 5.The second case is neglected because 5 cannot be present for R in any of the parameters. Hence it is the first case.
So the table looks like

Now S will have a minimum of 2 points in a, B and C each. That makes a minimum total of 6.The leftover 6 can be accommodated as 4 + 2 only.
S can’t have a 5 in any of A, B, and C
If S has exactly 2 4s in any of A, B, C, then in order to accommodate the leftover of 2, She needs two 1s, which is not possible
If S has exactly 1 4 in any of A, B, C, then in order to accommodate the leftover of 4,She needs either (1,3) or (2,2). The former is not possible.
That means it is set of 4, 2, 2, 2, 2 for S
Thus in any case S scores 2 in D=> Q scores 1 in D.
Hence Answer d
14.We have the sum total of all the points with P, Q, R, S and T to be 75. Since, P was the one to score the highest number of points which were 24.
So the total of points scored by Q, R, S and T was 51.
The minimum possible number of points scored by T is 11.
If T scores a minimum of 11, then S scores a minimum of 12 , R scores a minimum of 13 and Q scores a minimum of 14.The total amounts to 50.Now the extra 1 point can be adjusted such that Q scores 15 and the total will be 51.
Now for 24 to be possible there is just one set of 5, 5, 5, 5, 4 points.
If R scores 13, that means it is 4 * 3 + 1 or 4*2 + 5.The second case is neglected because 5 cannot be present for R in any of the parameters. Hence it is the first case.

S can’t have a 5 in any of A, B, and C
If S has exactly 2 4s in any of A, B, C, then in order to accommodate the leftover of 2, She needs two 1s, which is not possible

Thus in any case S scores 2 in D=> Q scores 1 in D.
Hence Answer c.
15.We have the sum total of all the points with P, Q, R, S and T to be 75. Since, P was the one to score the highest number of points which were 24.
So the total of points scored by Q, R, S and T was 51.
The minimum possible number of points scored by T is 11.
If T scores a minimum of 11, then S scores a minimum of 12 , R scores a minimum of 13 and Q scores a minimum of 14.The total amounts to 50.Now the extra 1 point can be adjusted such that Q scores 15 and the total will be 51.

Thus in any case S scores 2 in D=> Q scores 1 in D.
Hence Answer e.
16.e have the sum total of all the points with P, Q, R, S and T to be 75. Since, P was the one to score the highest number of points which were 24.
So the total of points scored by Q, R, S and T was 51.
The minimum possible number of points scored by T is 11.
If T scores a minimum of 11, then S scores a minimum of 12 , R scores a minimum of 13 and Q scores a minimum of 14.The total amounts to 50.Now the extra 1 point can be adjusted such that Q scores 15 and the total will be 51.

Thus in any case S scores 2 in D=> Q scores 1 in D.
Hence Answer 3
17.Most popular Brand is Brand D and after that it is Brand C as is clear from the Pie chart. Brand D sold = 26 % and Brand C sold = 22 % . So the difference is 4% of Total Market = 25,000*4/100 = 1,000. Hence b.
18.Revenue earned Before tax = Number of Units sold * Unit Price
Revenue earned by Brand A = (18*25000/100 ) * 14,500= 65,250,000
Revenue earned by Brand B = (14*25000/100 ) * 16,000= 56,000,000
Similarly the revenue earned by C = 66,000,000.
Revenue earned by D= (26*25000/100)*13,000= 84,500,000
Revenue earned by E= 67,500,000
So maximum revenue is earned by D. hence d.
19.Revenue earned after Tax = Revenue earned before Tax -Tax
SALES Tax % Tax paid Revenue
BRAND A 65,250,000 149,135,000 56,115,000
BRAND B 56,000,000 116,160,000 49,840,000
BRAND C 66,000,000 106,600,000 59,400,000
BRAND D 84,500,000 97,605,000 76,895,000
BRAND E 67,500,000 117,425,000 60,075,000
TOTAL 339,250,000 36,925,000 302,325,000
So Brand D earned the maximum revenue after Tax. Hence d.
20.From above table it is clear that BRAND A paid the maximum tax. Hence a.
21.Present share of market by Brand A= 18 % of 25,000 = 4,500 units.
If it increases by 900 it will be 4,500+900 = 5,400
As the market share of A remained the same that is 18 % we have 18 % of X = 5,400
so X = 5,400*100/18 = 30,000. Hence b.
22.Only Statement d is correct. Hence d.
