Question 6

Which of these players was definitely in Team Y?

A. L
B. M
C. N
D. None of these

SOLUTION

Solution : D

There are two cases:-

(1) D,E,H,B in team X and K,G,F in team Y (total=40). So the only possible team Y is K,G,F,L,M,N and I (total=115)

(2) D,E,F in team X and K,G,H,B in team Y (total=55). So the possible addition to Y are:-

a) L,M and N (total=53)

b) L,M and I (total=60)

c) I,M and N (total=55)

d) I,L and N (total=57)

SOLUTION

Solution : B

There are two cases:-

(1) D,E,H,B in team X and K,G,F in team Y (total=40). So the only possible team Y is K,G,F,L,M,N and I (total=115)

Question 11

If surplus ragi available each year was exported, what % of the ragi produced between the years ’97-98 and ’00-01 was exported?

A.

4.57

B.

7.31

C.

6.27

D.

None of these

SOLUTION

Solution : C

Total ragi surplus between 98-98 to 00-01 = 6+9+8+12 = 35 lakh tones

Total ragi produced between 97-98 and 00-01 = 132 + 138 +140 + 148 = 558 lakh tones

Percentage of production exported = 35558 × 100= 6.27%

Question 12

 Between the years ’96-97 and ‘00-01, the following can be said about the cumulative production and consumption of ragi?

A.

Cumulative production of ragi exceeded that of consumption by 18 lac tones

B.

Cumulative consumption of ragi was 89% of the cumulative production of ragi during this period

C.

Cumulative production of ragi exceeded cumulative consumption of ragi by 4.7% during this period.

D.

Consumption of ragi never exceeded the production of ragi during this period

SOLUTION

Solution : C

Cumulative production of ragi= 678 lakh tones

Cumulative consumption of rice = 647 lakh tones

Cumulative production exceeds cumulative consumption by 4.7%

Question 13

Which of the following statements are true?

I) The YOY rate of growth of production of ragi has been greater than the YOY rate of growth of consumption of ragi during the period 97-98 to 00-01

II) The CAGR rate of growth of productionofragi has been greater than the CAGR rate of growth of consumption of ragi during the period 97-98 to 00-01

III) The amount of ragi exported in a given year was greater than the previous year during all the years in the period 97-98 to 00-01

A. I only
B. I and II only
C. III only
D. II only

SOLUTION

Solution : D

Year%Production growth%Consumption growth96979798101.6198994.552.3899001.452.3300015.713.03

From the table we can see that not in all years in the YOY% growth of production greater that YOY% growth in consumption. Hence, statement I is not true

Overall production has grown faster than consumption. Hence, statement II is correct

In 99-00, surplus ragi was less than that in 98-99. hence statement III is also not true. 

Question 14

What was the % rate of growth in production of ragi between the period 99-00 and 00-01?

A. 4.05%
B. 5.71%
C. 1.67%
D. 10%

SOLUTION

Solution : B

Production increased from 140 lakh tones to 148 lakh tones, increase 8140 = 5.71%
