Question 1753.

At least what percentage of those scoring 75% or above in the J A T will fail to make it to the interview in Ostentia University?

Discuss Question

Answer: Option A. -> 90%
:
A

Ans. (a)

Ostentia’s JAT/GD cut-off figure is (125/60). The last row total of 1075 represents the number who score 75 % of 200 i.e. 150 and above in the JAT. Of these, 109 score 60 and above in GD and therefore qualify for interview if their academics conform to Ostentia. How many among these will actually qualify cannot be established, but (1075 – 109) will fail as they do not clear the GD cut-off. Hence minimum percentage disqualified for interview among those who quality in the JAT = (1075 – 109) * 100/1075 = 90%

Question 1754.

The government has changed and the rates are revised. The fixed rental is raised to Rs 400 for every two months; but the number of free minutes is increased to 300. The slabs of charge remain the same. What would be the increase or decrease in telephone bill for a user who is talking for 1600 minutes?

Rs 50
Rs 60
Rs 70
Rs 80
Rs 90

Discuss Question

Answer: Option A. -> Rs 50
:
A

as;When number of minutes =1600

Old scheme:-

Rental = 330. bill = 1325*0.8 + 330= Rs 1390

New scheme:-

Rental= 400. bill=1300*0.8 + 400 = Rs 1440. Increase = Rs 50. Answer is option (a)

Question 1755.

What is the difference in the telephone bill over 4 months, if the number of minutes for the first period is 4000 and the number of minutes for the second period is 2500?

1668
1500
1800
1750
none of these

Discuss Question

Answer: Option B. -> 1500
:
B

as; 4000 minutes can be calculated as (1725*0.8)+(2000) = Rs 3380

2500 minutes can be calculated as (1725*0.8)+(500) = Rs 1880

Difference = 3380-1880 = 1500

Question 1756.

What would the telephone bill be if the user has used his phone for 6000 minutes?

Rs. 5630
Rs 5960
Rs 6250
Rs 6996
Rs 7486

B

as;6000 minutes can be calculated as

(1725*0.8)+(3000*1)+(1000*1.25) = Rs 5960. option (b)

Question 1757.

Minu wants to have 2 phones. What would be the number of minutes of usage at which it would be economical for her to buy the second phone, such that the number of minutes she uses on each phone are equal?

1650
1950
2550
2600
not possible

Discuss Question

Answer: Option C. -> 2550
:
C

Ans: Extra cost of the other phone = Rs 330. When she buys a second phone she saves 275*0.8 = Rs 220. the overheads are 330-220=Rs 110.

For each minute above 2000, she will save 20 paise. So by using for 550 minutes, Rs 110 will be saved. Thus at 2550 minutes, both costs are equal. Answer is option (c)

Question 1758.

Anu wants to have a phone booth wherein she charges Rs.1 per minute. At what number of minutes, would she neither make a profit nor have a loss (over a two month period). Handset cost not taken into account?

550
1000
300
750
1256

Discuss Question

Answer: Option A. -> 550
:
A

as;Going from answer options.

Assuming answer option (a)

Number of minutes = 550. free minutes = 275. total calculated minutes = 275*0.8 = Rs 220

220+330=550 which is the number of minutes at which she would neither make a profit nor have a loss. Answer is option (a)

Question 1759.

At least what percentage of those scoring 62.5% or above in JAT will fail to make it to the interview at Ambrosia university?

45.2%
25.6%
54.3%
63.5%
none of these

Discuss Question

Answer: Option D. -> 63.5%
:
D

Ans. (d)

Ambrosia’s JAT/GD score cut-off is (125/40). The last two rows of the second table show the number (654+1075= 1729) which represents those who score > 62.5% on 200.

To find the minimum number of people who won’t make it to the interview round, we will eliminate all those who get a score < 40 in the GS round in both the rounds. This amounts to (92+198+100+163+247+298= 1098). Therefore minimum percentage = 1098/1729*100= 63.5%

Question 1760.

120
190
260
200
none of these

Discuss Question

Answer: Option E. -> none of these
:

Consider Electronics, 20% who failed in electronics failed in exactly five, so number of students who failed in all five papers = 20% of 900 = 180. Hence option (e).
