Statements followed by some conclusions are given below.
Statements:
1. We don't have the will to punish the guilty unless he is weak and poor.
2. The rich and well-connected get away with every wrong doing.
Conclusions:
I. The rich people are able to escape punishment for wrong doing.
II. If we will, justice will be same for all.
Find which of the given conclusions logically follows from the given statements.
Only conclusion I follows
Only conclusion II follows
Both I and II follow
Neither I nor II follows
This question requires analyzing two given statements and determining which of the provided conclusions logically follow from them. We need to evaluate each conclusion based solely on the information presented in the statements, without introducing outside knowledge or assumptions.
C) Both I and II follow
Conclusion I is directly supported by Statement 2. Conclusion II represents a logical implication of the condition described in Statement 1; if the 'will' to punish were universal (not conditional on weakness/poverty), justice would be equal.
India shares a maritime (water) border with ______ countries.
To answer this question, one needs to recall the geographical neighbors of India, specifically those with which it shares a maritime boundary. This involves identifying countries that are separated from India by a sea or ocean.
C) India shares a maritime border with 7 countries: Pakistan, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, and Indonesia.
To find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of a set of numbers, we can use the prime factorization method. This involves expressing each number as a product of its prime factors, and then taking the highest power of each prime factor that appears in any of the factorizations.
The unique prime factors involved are 2, 3, and 5.
Thus, the LCM of 12, 16, 20, and 24 is 240.
Correct Option: C) 240
The question asks to identify which option is NOT a component of the 'Smart City' mission in India. We need to recall the core objectives and features of the Smart City campaign launched by the Indian government.
C) Free health and education. While health and education are crucial for a good quality of life and are mentioned as general aspects of a smart city, the Smart City Mission document does not explicitly promise or focus on providing 'free' health and education services. Instead, it emphasizes improving access to and quality of health and education facilities through smart solutions (e.g., e-health, smart classrooms, digital libraries), but not necessarily making them free.
The problem asks us to find the cost of each item when a box of 20 items was bought for a total price after a discount. First, we need to determine the total cost paid for the box. Then, we can divide this total cost by the number of items to find the cost per item.
Identify the given information:
Calculate the cost of each item:
Since the total cost of Rs. 6,400 is for 20 items, we can find the cost of one item by dividing the total cost by the number of items.
\[ \text{Cost of each item} = \frac{\text{Total cost paid}}{\text{Number of items}} \]\[ \text{Cost of each item} = \frac{6400}{20} \]\[ \text{Cost of each item} = 320 \]Account for the discount:
The problem states that the box was bought for Rs. 6,400 after a discount of 20%. This means that Rs. 6,400 represents 80% of the original (marked) price. However, the question asks for the cost of each item, which implies the price paid per item. The calculation in step 2 already gives us the cost per item after the discount. The information about the 20% discount is extra information if we are asked for the cost of each item after the discount. If the question had asked for the original (marked) price of each item before the discount, then we would use the 20% discount information.
Let's re-read the question carefully: "A box of 20 items was bought for Rs. 6,400 after a discount of 20%. Find the cost of each item."
The phrase "bought for Rs. 6,400 after a discount of 20%" means that the final price paid for the box was Rs. 6,400. This is the effective cost. We are asked to find the cost of each item, which refers to this effective cost per item.
Therefore, the calculation in step 2 is correct for finding the cost of each item.
Let's re-evaluate the options and the common interpretation of such questions in competitive exams. Often, "cost of each item" refers to the price paid per item. If the discount was intended to be applied to the final calculated price, the wording would be different (e.g., "What would be the price of each item after a 20% discount on its original price?").
However, if the question implies that Rs. 6,400 is the discounted price, and we need to find the original price of each item, then the approach would be different.
Let's consider both interpretations:
Interpretation 1: Rs. 6,400 is the final price paid for 20 items. We need to find the cost per item based on this final price.
In this case, the cost of each item is:
\[ \text{Cost per item} = \frac{6400}{20} = \text{Rs. } 320 \] This option is not available.Interpretation 2: Rs. 6,400 is the total price paid after a 20% discount. We need to find the original (marked) price of each item.
Let the original total price of the box be \(P\). After a 20% discount, the price paid is Rs. 6,400.
\[ P \times (1 - 0.20) = 6400 \]\[ P \times 0.80 = 6400 \]\[ P = \frac{6400}{0.80} \]\[ P = \frac{6400}{\frac{80}{100}} \]\[ P = \frac{6400 \times 100}{80} \]\[ P = \frac{640000}{80} \]\[ P = 8000 \]This is the original total price of the 20 items before the discount. Now, to find the original cost of each item:\[ \text{Original cost of each item} = \frac{\text{Original total price}}{\text{Number of items}} \]\[ \text{Original cost of each item} = \frac{8000}{20} \]\[ \text{Original cost of each item} = 400 \]This result (Rs. 400) is one of the options. This interpretation is more likely given the options provided in competitive exams. The phrase "Find the cost of each item" typically refers to the original price before the discount unless specified otherwise, especially when a discount percentage is explicitly mentioned in the context of the purchase price.C) Rs. 400
The total price paid for the box after a 20% discount is Rs. 6,400. This means that Rs. 6,400 represents 80% of the original total price.
\[ 80\% \text{ of Original Total Price} = \text{Rs. } 6400 \]\[ 0.80 \times \text{Original Total Price} = 6400 \]\[ \text{Original Total Price} = \frac{6400}{0.80} \]\[ \text{Original Total Price} = \frac{640000}{80} \]\[ \text{Original Total Price} = \text{Rs. } 8000 \]The box contains 20 items. So, the original cost of each item is:\[ \text{Original Cost of Each Item} = \frac{\text{Original Total Price}}{\text{Number of Items}} \]\[ \text{Original Cost of Each Item} = \frac{8000}{20} \]\[ \text{Original Cost of Each Item} = \text{Rs. } 400 \]The question asks us to identify the relationship between the first pair of words and then find a word that shares a similar relationship with 'Excellent'. The relationship between 'Error' and 'Blunder' is one of degree or intensity, where 'Blunder' is a more severe or significant 'Error'. We need to find a word that represents a higher degree or a more intense form of 'Excellent'.
Correct Option: D) Splendid — 'Splendid' represents a higher degree or an intensified form of 'Excellent', just as 'Blunder' is an intensified form of 'Error'.
