Q:

Statement :

The byproducts obtained from animals such as hairs, skins, horns, etc. contain at least 45 per cent food protein. Indian scientists have developed methods to segregate 50 per cent of this protein. They have used an enzyme developed in Russia for destruction of soya-proteins.

Conclusions:

A. Indian scientists cannot develop enzymes.

B. If a suitable method involving less cost is developed then many more food protein would be obtained.

A) Only A follows B) Only B follows
C) Neither A nor B follows D) Both A & B follows
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Neither A nor B follows

Explanation:

There is no indication that Indian scientists are incapable of developing enzymes. There could be any number of reasons why Indian scientists used Russian enzymes.

So conclusion A does not follow.

In addition, cost is not discussed in the passage at all. There is no mention of a correlation between cost and extraction of proteins.

Thus, conclusion B does not follow either.

Q:

Taps X and Y can fill a tank in 30 and 40 minutes respectively.Tap Z can empty the filled tank in 60 minutes.If all the three taps are kept open for one minute each,how much time will the taps take to fill the tank?

A) 48min B) 72min
C) 24min D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 24min

Explanation:

Given taps X and Y can fill the tank in 30 and 40 minutes respectively. Therefore,

 

part filled by tap X in 1 minute = 1/30

 

part filled by tap Y in 1 minute = 1/40

 

Tap Z can empty the tank in 60 minutes. Therefore,

 

part emptied by tap Z in 1 minute = 1/60

 

Net part filled by Pipes X,Y,Z together in 1 minute = [1/30 +1/40 - 1/60] = 5/120 = 1/24

 

i.e., the tank can be filled in 24 minutes.

Q:

Yard is to Inch as Quart is to

A) Milk B) Gallon
C) Liquid D) Ounce
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Ounce

Explanation:

Yard is to Inch as Quart is to Ounce.

Because Yard and Inch are units of measurement Where Yard is larger than Inch i.e, 1 Yard = 36 Inches.

So, here Quart and Ounce are also units of measurement where Quart is larger than Ounce i.e, 1 Quart = 32 Ounces.

Gallon is not correct because Gallon is larger than Quart and Milk and Liquid are not units of measurement.

So, Ounce is correct.
