Bill and Chanda each give their father 20% of their savings for the first 3 months. At the

Options:
1. 5310
2. Rs. 810
3. Rs 5, 310
4. Rs. 66, 960
Explanation:
The monthly savings of the two are: Bill - 4000 and Chanda - 3500. So 20% of Bill and
Chanda’s savings for three months = 20% of (4000+3500) x 3 = 4500. Investing this at 24% per
annum for 9 months gives 24/100 x 9/12 x 4500 = 810 giving a total of 4500 + 810 = 5310

Aditya and Bill together decide to buy a house. The EMIs for the house work out to Rs 20000
per month for 15 years, which they pay from the amount they were previously spending on rent.
Since there is some amount left over, they together invest that in a smaller house. If the total
amount spent on the smaller house is half of that spent on the larger (ignoring interest and net
present value effects), in how many months will they finish paying for the smaller house?
(Assume that there is no change in their income, expenditure as well as percent breakup of
expenditure over 15 years and they together pay for EMIs for the second house from the amount
left over after paying EMIs for the first house).

[quizky-text]months
Options:
1. 120
2. 15
3. 90
4. 10
Explanation:
The monthly rent of Aditya = 40% of (37250 – 2250) = 14000. Similarly that of Bill is 35% of
(64000 – 4000) = 21000. So the total amount available is 35000. 20000 out of this is being used
for the first house so every month 15000 can be used for the second house. The amount spent on
the first house is therefore 20000 x 12 x 15 = 3600000. The amount spent on the smaller house
must therefore be 1800000, and at 15000 per month it will take 1800000/15000 = 120 months.

Question:
In the month of May, Chanda needs to spend a little more than usual on Equipment. So her
brothers each volunteer to donate 4% of their "miscellaneous" expenses to help her. What will
be the approximate percentage increase in her expenditure on equipment?
Options:
1. 6%
2. 10%
3. 14%
4. 17%
Explanation:
The miscellaneous expenses of Aditya are 20% of (37250 – 2250) = 7000. Those of Bill are 33%
of (64000 – 4000) = 19800. So they must be giving Chanda 4% of (7000 + 19800) = 268 x 4 =
1072. Currently, Chanda’s budget for equipment is 21% of (53500 – 3500) = 10500. So the
percentage increase will be (1072 / 10500) x 100 = 10.2%. Hence, [2].

Passage:
Eight teams - Australia, England, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, West Indies and
Zimbabwe participated in a cricket tournament.
The teams were divided into two groups - Group A and Group B. In League Matches, each
team in a group played two matches against every other team in the group. After all the league
matches were over, the team were ranked in descending order of number of matches won. In case
of a tie, the team having better run-rate was ranked higher.
In semi finals, team ranked first in a group played against the team ranked second in the other
group. Final was played between the winners of the two semi-finals.
Further it is known that:
1. No team won all the League matches while exactly two teams lost all the league matches.
2. In Group A, two teams that qualified for the semi finals won equal number of matches,
which was higher than the number of matches won by other teams in the Group.
3. In Group B, all the teams won different number of matches. In Group B, the team ranked
first at the end of League matches did not lose to the team ranked second.
4. Out of India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, two teams were in one Group while the third team
was in the other Group. Similarly out of England, New Zealand and Australia, two teams were in
one Group while the third team was in the other Group.
5. Australia, England, India and Pakistan qualified for semifinals.
6. Zimbabwe lost to New Zealand in both the League matches. On the other hand New
Zeland lost to Australia in both the League matches.
7. Sri Lanka lost to West Indies in both the League matches.
8. Toppers in both groups lost in the semifinals.
9. West Indies won at least one match against two other teams.
10. All the matches were played as per schedule and there was no tie in any of the League
matches.
Direction:
Refer to the data below and answer the questions that follow.
Question:
If it is known that the final was played between Australia and England, What was the result of
the two League matches played between England and West Indies?
Options:
1. England won both matches
2. Third ranked team won both matches
3. Both England and West Indies won one match each
4. England and West Indies did not play against each other in the League matches stage
Explanation:
Each team played against other three teams in the Group two matches. Therefore each team played 6
matches. Total number of matches played in the Group was 12.
From statements (i) and (ii), we can say that in Group A, the teams that qualified for semifinals won 5
matches out of 6 they played. Therefore the third team in the Group won 2 matches. Thus in Group A, the
teams won 5, 5, 2 and 0 matches respectively. Thus out of the two League matches played between first
two teams, each team won one match.
From statements (i) and (iii), we can say that in Group B, the teams won 5, 4, 3 and 0 matches
respectively. The team ranked first lost to the team ranked third. Therefore the team ranked third won
three matches"”two against the team ranked fourth and one against the team ranked first.
From statement (vi), Zimbabwe, Australia and New Zealand are in the same Group. From statement (iv),
England has to be in the other Group.
From statement (vii), Sri Lanka and West Indies are in the same Group.
Therefore we have the following distribution of teams:
First Group: Zimbabwe, Australia, New Zealand, India/Pakistan
Second Group: England, Sri Lanka and West Indies, India/Pakistan
Australia, England, India and Pakistan qualified for semifinals. Therefore Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka, New
Zealand and West Indies were ranked 3rd or 4th in their respective Groups. Out of these, Sri Lanka and
Zimbabwe are ranked 4th and New Zealand and West Indies are ranked 3rd in their respective Groups.
From statement (ix), West Indies won at least one match against two teams. Thus West Indies has won 3
games and therefore it is in Group B.
Therefore we have distribution of the teams in Groups as follows
If it is known that the final was played between Australia and England, India and Pakistan are
ranked first in their respective Groups while Australia is ranked 2nd in Group A and England is
ranked 2nd in Group B. In Group B, the team ranked 3rd (West Indies) has won one match against
the team ranked 1st and two matches against the team ranked 4th. Therefore West Indies has lost
both the matches against the team ranked 2nd (England). Hence, [1].

two teams, each team won one match.
From statements (i) and (iii), we can say that in Group B, the teams won 5, 4, 3 and 0 matches
respectively. The team ranked first lost to the team ranked third. Therefore the team ranked third won
