The question gives the codes COAT = 2486 and PALE = 5712 and asks for the code of the letter A. In such questions, the letters and digits are coded without a fixed order, so we need to find the letter common to both words and the digit common to both codes.
Identify the given information:
Find the common letter:
COAT has the letters C, O, A, T and PALE has the letters P, A, L, E. The only letter in both words is A.
Find the common digit:
The code 2486 has the digits 2, 4, 8, 6 and the code 5712 has the digits 5, 7, 1, 2. The only digit in both codes is 2.
Match the common letter with the common digit:
Since A is the only common letter and 2 is the only common digit, A is coded as 2.
Correct Option: C) 2 — A is the only letter shared by COAT and PALE, and 2 is the only digit shared by 2486 and 5712. Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
A) 5: This is incorrect because 5 appears only in the code for PALE, so it belongs to P, L or E.
B) 7: This is incorrect because 7 appears only in the code for PALE, so it belongs to P, L or E.
D) 8: This is incorrect because 8 appears only in the code for COAT, so it belongs to C, O or T.
The question asks about the targeted fiscal deficit as a percentage of GDP under the original Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management (FRBM) Act of 2003. To answer this, we need to recall the key provisions and targets set by this landmark legislation.
Correct Option: C) 3%
This problem involves the concept of relative speed. When a train overtakes a person walking in the same direction, the relative speed is the difference between the train's speed and the person's speed. The distance covered by the train to overtake the person is equal to the length of the train itself. We can set up two equations based on the given information and solve for the speed of the train and its length.
C) 90 km/hr is the speed of the train.
The problem asks us to identify the letter-cluster that does not follow the same pattern as the others, based on English alphabetical order. We need to find the positional values of the letters in each cluster and look for a consistent relationship or rule among them.
D) OSM — The pattern for OSM is \((+4, -6)\) based on the alphabetical positions of its letters (O=15, S=19, M=13). This differs from the \((+4, -5)\) pattern observed in the other three options.
The question asks for the popular name of the Great Plain of Northern India. This requires knowledge of the major physiographic divisions of India and their common geographical names.
C) Indo-Ganga-Brahmaputra Plain. This is the most accurate and widely accepted geographical name for the vast alluvial plain in Northern India. It explicitly mentions the three major river systems (Indus, Ganga, and Brahmaputra) that have formed this extensive and fertile plain through their depositional activities. While the Indus Plain is largely in Pakistan, its eastern parts and the plains formed by its tributaries (like Sutlej) are part of the broader Northern Indian Plain. The Ganga and Brahmaputra plains cover significant portions of North and Northeast India, respectively, and are contiguous.
The question asks for the present-day state where Chauri Chaura, the site of a violent incident that led Mahatma Gandhi to call off the Non-Cooperation Movement, is located. This requires knowledge of Indian history and geography.
Therefore, Chauri Chaura is located in present-day Uttar Pradesh.
Correct Option: C) Uttar Pradesh
This problem involves tracking movements in different directions. We can solve this by breaking down the journey into components along the East-West and North-South axes. We will determine the final position relative to the starting point and then calculate the distance and direction needed to return to the start.
D) 3 km to the north. Based on our calculations, Point P is 3 km South of Point A. Therefore, to reach Point A, Bikash must drive 3 km towards the North.
The question asks to identify the island that was renamed as Swaraj Dweep. This is a factual question related to the renaming of islands in the Andaman and Nicobar archipelago by the Indian government.
Correct Option: D) Havelock Island was renamed Swaraj Dweep.
The problem asks us to identify a triad of letter pairs that follows the same pattern as the two given triads: TY-OT-JO and AF-VA-QV. We need to analyze the relationship between the letters in each pair and the relationship between the pairs within a triad.
The problem requires us to evaluate an expression after interchanging certain mathematical operators. We need to apply the given interchange rules and then follow the order of operations (BODMAS/PEMDAS) to solve the modified expression.
D) 556 is the correct answer after applying the operator interchanges and following the order of operations.
