Total sale for 5 months = Rs. (6435 + 6927 + 6855 + 7230 + 6562) = Rs. 34009.
Required sale = Rs. [ (6500 x 6) - 34009 ]
= Rs. (39000 - 34009)
= Rs. 4991.

Suppose they meet x hours after 7 a.m.
Distance covered by A in x hours = 20x km.
Distance covered by B in (x - 1) hours = 25(x - 1) km.
20x + 25(x - 1) = 110
45x = 135
x = 3.
So, they meet at 10 a.m.

Logical Reasoning
Answers of LR
1 C - In the code, the first letter is the second alphabet, the second letter is the
third alphabet, and the third letter is the fourth alphabet and so on after the
corresponding letter in the word.
2 D - A child will write with a 'pencil', and pencil is called 'sharpener'. So, a
child will write with a 'sharpener'.
3 D
E is married to A or D. But B is married to D.
Thus, E is married to A. Thus, A, B, D, E are the four adults and C, F, G are
the three children in the family.
B and D have a child G.
A and E have two children. They are C and F.
Now, only F and G are girls. So, C is a boy.
Thus, C is A's or E's son.
4 B
A is a male and married to B.
So, A is the husband and B is the wife.
C is the brother of A. D is the son of C.
E, who is the sister of D will be the daughter of C.
B is the daughter-in-law of F whose husband has died means F is the mother
of A.
Hence, E is the daughter of C.
5 D
6 D
E is married to A or D. But B is married to D.
Thus, E is married to A. Thus, A, B, D, E are the four adults and C, F, G are
the three children in the family.
B and D have a child G.
The passage tells us that Tim's commute didn't bother him because he was
always able to sit down and comfortably read or do paperwork. Therefore, it
is reasonable to assume that Tim's commute has become less comfortable
since the schedule change, because it is very crowded and he can no longer
find a seat. There is no information given that supports choices a, c, and d.
17 C
Although the ski instructors at Top of the Peak Ski School do work
seasonally, choice a does not describe anyone applying for seasonal
employment. In choice b, the statement that Matthew likes to work outdoors
tells us nothing about seasonal employment or someone applying for it. And
although choice d describes a business with seasonal hours, it does not
describe a person applying for seasonal work. Choice c, on the other hand,
very specifically depicts a person, Lucinda, who is applying for a job as a
summer waitress at a beach resort, which is dependent upon a particular
season of the year.
18 A
Although choice d also mentions a writer who has died, it does not state that
one of the writer's books was published after her death, only that she
received an award. Choice a states that Richard wasn't around to see the
early reviews of his novel, therefore implying that Richard died before the
book was published. The other two options depict living writers
19 D
To harvest something, one must have a crop, which is the essential element
for this item. Autumn (choice a) is not the only time crops are harvested.
There may not be enough of a crop to stockpile (choice b), and you can
harvest crops without a tractor (choice c).
20 A
Without students, a school cannot exist; therefore, students are the essential
part of schools. The other choices may be related, but they are not essential.

Verbal Ability
8. There are two aspects that you need to keep in mind while answering this
question: a. the argument focuses on the speed with which a religion spreads across
mountains and how mountains can act as an impediment in this progress b. the
final popularity of the religion in a place is not in question, rather the speed with
which it becomes popular is being talked about here. This makes option B the clear
answer and discounts option C. The reason for this is that if option B is correct,
then the argument is weakened substantially and its very existence comes into
question
9. The whole point of the paragraph is to illustrate the difference in values between
rural India and England. Which is better amongst these two is not the question but
the fact that they are different is something that the author is driving at.
10. , As an extension of the above question, the answer is very easy to identify.
Clearly, option D runs contrary to the passage as it talks about changing the tribes
and how they should change themselves as much as possible (clearly the author
implies the opposite).
17. The best answer is C. Choice C correctly develops the parallel not only but
also
18. The best answer is C. As used in choices A, B, and D, the phrases on account of
and because of are unidiomatic. Choice E has a subject-verb agreement problem.
19. The best answer is C. In choices A and B, the verb suggest does not agree
with its singular subject, rise. Choices D and E use the adverb usually where the
adjective form is required
20. The best answer is B. In sentences expressing a conditional result (X will
happen if Y happens), the verb of the main clause should be in the future tense and
the verb of the if clause should be in the present indicative. Thus, is backed (in B) is
consistent with will take
