Question 1
Comprehension
The following table shows the total number of students in the Department of the Institute along with the percentage of Females and Male students. Answer questions 1 to 5 based on the data given below:

What is the ratio of the number of females in Civil and Electrical departments together to the number of males in the same Departments together?
A
311 : 270
B
329 : 261
C
411 : 469
D
311 : 269
Question 1 Explanation: 
Number of females in civil department is (35/100)*220 = 77
Number of females in electrical department is (65/100)*360 = 234
Total number of female students(civil+electrical)=77+234=311
Number of males in civil department is (65/100)*220 = 143
Number of males in electrical department is (35/100)*360 = 126
Total number of male students(civil+electrical)=143+126=269
The ratio of the number of females in Civil and Electrical departments together to the number of males in the same Departments together is 311 : 269

List I List II
(Scales of measurement) (Description of properties)
a)Nominal (I) Classification and order
b)Ordinal (II) Classification
c)Interval (III) Classification, order and equal units
d)Ratio (IV) Classification order, equal units and Absolute Zero
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A
(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
B
(A)-(II), (B)-(I), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
C

Question 7
A type of memory that holds the computer startup routine is
A
Cache
B
RAM
C
DRAM
D
ROM
Question 7 Explanation: 
The invention of read-only memory (ROM) of various types solved this paradox by allowing computers to be shipped with a startup program that could not be erased. Growth in the capacity of ROM has allowed ever more elaborate start up procedures to be implemented
Question 8
Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): In order to bridge the gap between theory and practice both fundamental and applied research formats have to be promoted.
Reason (R): Fundamental research focuses on theory making and applied research is directed at exploring the applicability of theory in varied practical situations.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
A
Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
B
Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A)
C
(A) is correct but (R) is not correct
D
(A) is not correct but (R) is correct

Question 10
In a 100 meters race, A beat B by 10 meter or 2 second. What is the speed of A?
A
5 Km/h
B
10 Km/h
C
15 Km/h
D
20 Km/h
Question 10 Explanation: 
When A completes 100m, B is at 90m which is 10m behind.Now A beats B by 2 secs.
This means B takes 2 more seconds to complete the race
As B is 10m behind when A completes the race, so B takes 2 secs to complete 10m
Speed of B = 5m/s
Total time of B = 100/5 = 20 secs
Time of A = 20 - 2 = 18 seconds
Speed of A = 100/18 = 5.555
Question 11
Given below are two statements: One if labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): Substance is always the subject of all predicates.
Reason (R): Substance is self-existence and self-conceived.

A
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
B
Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A)
C
(A) is true but (R) is false
D
(A) is false but (R) is true
