Directions for question 1 to 4: Answer the questions on the basis of information given below.

Six persons namely Andy, Bharat, Chahel, Daksh, Ekta and Faiz played a game in which they had to guess the prices of five different
objects A, B, C, D and E. Later it was found that each of them guessed the price of exactly one object correctly. Also, the price of each
item was guessed correctly by at least one person. For each object one guess was half the original price and one guess was double the
original price. The table given below shows the prices (in Rs.) guessed by these six persons for each object:

Q 1. What is the price (in Rs.) of the object guessed correctly by Ekta?

Q 2. If the price of object D was not Rs. 18, then what was the price (in Rs.) of the object C?

Q 3. What could be the minimum possible total price (in Rs.) of all the objects taken together?
1) 86

2) 100

3) 108
4) 94

Q 4. If a, b, c, d and e represent the prices (in Rs.) of objects A, B, C, D and E respectively, then which of the following could be true?

1) a + d + e = 110

2) b + c + d = 74

3) a + b + c = 60

4) a + b + d = 90
Directions for questions 5 to 10: Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below.

An engineering college receives scholarship funds every year. Then college conducts a test and interview to shortlist certain candidates
who receives scholarship as per their performance. The candidate with the highest cumulative score receives the highest scholarship,
the candidate with second highest scores receives second highest scholarship, the candidate with third highest scores receives third
highest scholarship and so on. There were no ties in the scores of the candidates.
All the shortlisted candidates pay a registration amount of Rs. 20,000 after appearing for the scholarship test. Exactly top 5 candidates
receive scholarships such that if a candidate fail to secure more than 15% of the scholarship funds, they lose their registration amount.
The table given below provides some incomplete information about scholarship funds allocated to the shortlisted candidates in four
consecutive years 2018 to 2021.

highest score, and candidate with highest score received 20% of total scholarship more than that of candidate with 2nd highest score.
(iv) All the candidates receive scholarships in the integral multiples of 10.
Q 5. What is the percentage of scholarship funds allocated to candidates who lost their joining amounts in 2018?

Q 8. What was the scholarship fund (in Rs.) received by the 5th highest scorer in 2021?

Q 9. In 2019, all five candidates received scholarship funds which formed Arithmetic Progression, then total how much registration

Directions for questions 11 to 16: Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below.

Eight students - A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are planning to work on 3 projects - P1, P2, and P3. For these 3 projects they form 3 teams - T1,
T2 and T3. Team T1 works on project P1, Team T2 works on project P2 and Team T3 works on project P3. For each project to be
successful, the students need to work on certain days, as per the requirement of the projects. The table given below shows information
about the different days that the students can work for the projects:
Following is the additional information:
(i) The number of students in team T1, T2 and T3 are 5, 5 and 4 respectively. Each of the 8 students is in at least one team and being part
of the team, must work for at least one day. No student can work for more than two days for a particular project.
(ii) In all the 3 teams, one student works on Day 1, one student works on Day 2 and one student works on Day 9, such that no two teams
have same student who works on Day 9. Also, the student who works on Day 1 for a project does not work on any other day for that
particular project.
(iii) F works in team T1 on Day 9 and G is in team T3. C is in two teams. Also, C cannot be in the same team as either H or D.
(iv) If work is done on a project on Day 3, then it will be done on Day 5 also. Similarly, if work is done on a project on Day 8, then it will be
done on Day 7 also. If D is in a team, he always works for two days on the project. The same is true for G.
(v) In 2 teams out of 3, work is done on Day 6. Similarly, in 2 teams out of 3, work is done on Day 3 and the same is true for Day 4. While
on Day 8, one student of only one team works.
(vi) Project P1 requires the students of Team T1 to work on exactly 7 different days out of the 9 different days listed in the table above.

Directions for questions 17 to 20: Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below.

In the 5 × 5 grid given below, 25 consecutive integers starting from x are to be arranged such that each integer, except x and (x + 1), can
be written as the sum of its some two neighbours. Some of the integers are already filled as disguised. Integers in the grid are
neighbours if their cells touch along a side or at a vertex. Each integer is used exactly once. For example, (x + 8) and ((x + 4)2 – 1) are
neighbours of (x + 4)2. Columns 1st, 2nd, …, 5th are from left to right and rows 1st, 2nd, …, 5th are from top to bottom.

Q 17. How many different value(s) of x is/are possible?
