Q8DSSSB TGT Computer Science, 24 Jun 2023, Shift 3 (4:30 PM) · General Intelligence & Reasoning Ability
Four number-pairs have been given, out of which three are alike in some manner and one is different. Select the one that is different.
A16 - 72
B24 - 108
C18-81
D22 - 97
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (D) 22 - 97
Explanation
In every other pair the second number is 4.5 times the first (16 × 4.5 = 72, 24 × 4.5 = 108, 18 × 4.5 = 81). 22 × 4.5 = 99, not 97, so 22 - 97 is the odd one.

In a row of a picture hall where all are facing north, Khalid is 25th from the left end and Kapil is 29th from the right end. They interchange their seats, and Sham who is sitting 34th from the left end is sitting at the 5th place to the left of Khalid new position. How many persons are there in one row of the picture hall?
A56
B67
C76
D62
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (B) 67
Explanation
Khalid's new seat is Kapil's old seat, 29th from the right. Sham is 34th from the left and 5 places to the left of Khalid, so Khalid is 39th from the left. Total = 39 + 29 − 1 = 67.
Q11DSSSB TGT Computer Science, 24 Jun 2023, Shift 3 (4:30 PM) · General Intelligence & Reasoning Ability
Four number-pairs have been given, out of which three are alike in some manner and one is different. Select the one that is different.
A13 - 39
B27 - 81
C23 - 69
D17 - 51
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (B) 27 - 81
Explanation
In every pair the second number is 3 times the first, but in 13, 23 and 17 the first number is prime. 27 is not prime (both 27 and 81 are powers of 3), so 27 - 81 is the odd pair.
Q12DSSSB TGT Computer Science, 24 Jun 2023, Shift 3 (4:30 PM) · General Intelligence & Reasoning Ability
Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements.

II. All dogs are peacocks.
III. All eagles are peacocks.
AOnly conclusion I follows
BOnly conclusions II and III follow
COnly conclusions I and II follow
DAll the conclusions, I, II and III, follow
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (A) Only conclusion I follows
Explanation
Some dogs are goats and all goats are peacocks, so some dogs are peacocks, which means some peacocks are dogs (I follows). Not every dog has to be a goat, so II fails, and "all peacocks are eagles" does not reverse, so III fails.

Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (C) PT Usha
Explanation
P. T. Usha was elected the first woman president of the Indian Olympic Association in December 2022.
63° stands for 105 students, so 1° = 5/3 student. Class VII = 75.6 × 5/3 = 126, of which boys = 126 × 5/14 = 45. Class X = 64.8 × 5/3 = 108, of which girls = 108 × 5/9 = 60. 45 : 60 = 3 : 4.
Acid in 7 L of A = 2 L, and acid in 9 L of B = 54/13 L, so the total acid is 80/13 L in 16 L, a fraction of 5/13. Acid in 312 mL = 312 × 5/13 = 120 mL.
For 8, the number 7y4 must be a multiple of 8, so y = 0, 4 or 8. For 11, 29 − (11 + x + y) must be a multiple of 11, so x + y = 7. Valid pairs are (7, 0) and (3, 4), and (7, 0) gives the maximum 5x − 3y = 35.
Together the pipes fill 1/20 − 1/40 = 1/40 per hour, so 30 hours fill 3/4 of the tank. A alone fills the remaining 1/4 in 5 hours, so the total is 35 hours.
After the ₹700 down payment, ₹900 is owed and repaid as 3 × ₹310. Equating values at the end: 900(1 + 3r/1200) = 930 + 310 × 3r/1200, so 1.475r = 30 and r ≈ 20.3%.
Take A's rate as 3 units a day and B's as 2, so the work is 42 units. B alone does the last 2 days (4 units), and the other 38 units at 5 a day take 7.6 days. Total = 9.6 = 9 3/5 days.
The total time is 2 hours, so the distance = 72.25 × 2 = 144.5 km. The first two parts cover 60 + 32 = 92 km, which leaves 52.5 km in 35 minutes, so x = 52.5 × 60/35 = 90 km/h.

Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
When I was very little, I caught the travel bug. It started after my grandparents first brought
me to their home in France and I have now been to twenty-nine different countries. Each has
given me a unique learning experience.
At five, I marvelled at the Eiffel Tower in the City of Lights. When I was eight, I stood in the
heart of Piazza San Marco feeding hordes of pigeons, then glided down Venetian waterways
on sleek gondolas. At thirteen, I saw the ancient, megalithic structure of Stonehenge and
walked along the Great Wall of China, amazed that the thousand-year-old stones were still in
place.
It was through exploring cultures around the world that I first became interested in language.
It began with French, which taught me the importance of pronunciation. I remember once
asking a store owner in Paris where Rue des Pyramides was. But when I pronounced it PYR–
a–mides instead of pyr–A–mides, with more accent on the A, she looked at me bewildered.
In the eighth grade, I became fascinated with Spanish and aware of its similarities with
English through cognates. Baseball in Spanish, for example, is béisbol, which looks different
but sounds nearly the same. This was incredible to me as it made speech and comprehension
more fluid, and even today I find that cognates come to the rescue when I forget how to say
something in Spanish.
Then, in high school, I developed an enthusiasm for Chinese. As I studied Chinese at my
school, I marvelled how if just one stroke was missing from a character, the meaning is lost. I
loved how long words were formed by combining simpler characters, so Huǒ meaning fire
and Shān meaning mountain can be joined to create Huǒshān, which means volcano. I love
spending hours at a time practicing the characters and I can feel the beauty and rhythm as I
form them.

AS1 is conflict serializable but S2 is not.
BS1 is not conflict serializable but S2 is conflict serializable.
CBoth are not conflict serializable.
DBoth are conflict serializable.
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (B) S1 is not conflict serializable but S2 is conflict serializable.
Explanation
S1 has R1(B) before W2(B) (T1→T2) and R2(A) before W1(A) (T2→T1), which forms a cycle. S2 only has edges T2→T1, so it is conflict serializable (equivalent to T2, T1).
Which of the following statements is true about Home Location Register (HLR) and Visitor Location Register (VLR)?
AVLR is not responsible for the MS (Mobile Station) to inform the MLR about location changes.
BVLR is not responsible for the MS (Mobile Station) to inform the HLR about location changes.
CVLR is responsible for the MS (Mobile Station) to inform the HLR about location changes.
DHLR is responsible for the MS (Mobile Station) to inform the VLR about location changes.
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (C) VLR is responsible for the MS (Mobile Station) to inform the HLR about location changes.
Explanation
When a mobile station enters a new area, the serving VLR registers it and informs the HLR of the location change, so the HLR always knows which VLR area the subscriber is in.
