Sample questions from this paper

Q1.
Choose the one word substitute for the below sentence.
Lana asked her mother, a person who loves collecting coins called?
  1. AHoarder
  2. BCollector
  3. CPhilatelist
  4. DNumismatist
Show answer

Concept: Words for hobbyists come from the thing they collect: Latin numisma = coin.

  1. Coin collector/student → Numismatist.
  2. Philatelist = stamp collector (common trap).
  3. Hoarder = one who piles things up compulsively; Collector is too general.

Trick: Numis → 'money' (think of 'numismatics' = study of coins & currency); Phil-ately → post 'stamps'.

Answer: (D) Numismatist

अवधारणा: शौक़ वाले व्यक्ति का नाम उस चीज़ से बनता है जिसे वह जमा करता है; numisma = सिक्का।

  1. सिक्के इकट्ठा करने/पढ़ने वाला → Numismatist।
  2. Philatelist = डाक टिकट जमा करने वाला (फँसाने वाला विकल्प)।
  3. Hoarder = चीज़ें जमाखोरी करने वाला; Collector बहुत सामान्य शब्द है।

ट्रिक: Numismatist = सिक्के, Philatelist = टिकट – दोनों की जोड़ी याद रखें।

उत्तर: (D) Numismatist

Q26.
If January 1, 2020, was a Wednesday, what day of the week was January 1, 2021?
यदि 1 जनवरी, 2020 को बुधवार था, तो 1 जनवरी, 2021 को सप्ताह का कौन-सा दिन था?
  1. AThursdayगुरुवार
  2. BFridayशुक्रवार
  3. CSaturdayशनिवार
  4. DSundayरविवार
Show answer

Concept: Ordinary year shifts the day by 1, a leap year by 2 (odd days).

  1. Jan 1, 2020 → Jan 1, 2021 covers the full year 2020.
  2. 2020 is a leap year (divisible by 4) → 366 days = 52 weeks + 2 days.
  3. Wednesday + 2 → Thursday → Friday.

Trick: Same date next year: normal year +1 day, leap year +2 days (the year that contains Feb 29 counts).

Answer: (B) Friday

अवधारणा: साधारण वर्ष में दिन 1 आगे, लीप वर्ष में 2 आगे खिसकता है (विषम दिन)।

  1. 1 जन. 2020 से 1 जन. 2021 तक पूरा 2020 वर्ष आता है।
  2. 2020 लीप वर्ष है → 366 दिन = 52 सप्ताह + 2 दिन।
  3. बुधवार + 2 = शुक्रवार।

ट्रिक: अगले साल की वही तारीख: साधारण वर्ष +1, लीप वर्ष +2 दिन।

उत्तर: (B) Friday (शुक्रवार)

Q51.
A product marked Rs. 8,400 is sold at 15% discount. Find the selling price.
Rs. 8,400 अंकित मूल्य वाली एक वस्तु 15% छूट पर बेची जाती है। विक्रय मूल्य ज्ञात कीजिए।
  1. ARs. 7,040
  2. BRs. 7,140
  3. CRs. 7,240
  4. DRs. 6,940
Show answer

Concept: SP = MP × (100 − discount%)/100.

  1. After 15% off, the buyer pays 85% of ₹8,400.
  2. SP = 8400 × 85/100 = 84 × 85 = ₹7,140.

Trick: 10% of 8400 = 840, 5% = 420 → 15% = 1260; 8400 − 1260 = 7140.

Answer: (B) Rs. 7,140

अवधारणा: विक्रय मूल्य = अंकित मूल्य × (100 − छूट%)/100।

  1. 15% छूट के बाद 85% देना होगा।
  2. SP = 8400 × 85/100 = 84 × 85 = ₹7,140।

ट्रिक: 10% = 840, 5% = 420 → 15% = 1260; 8400 − 1260 = 7140।

उत्तर: (B) Rs. 7,140
