Total surface area of a cube = 6 * side². 216 = 6 * side², giving side² = 36, so the side = 6 cm.

The pattern involves increasing the first letter by one, replacing the middle letter with a number representing the number of letters, and keeping the last letter the same. So, ‘fish’ becomes ‘g5h’.

Baking soda is the common name for Sodium Bicarbonate (NaHCO3). It is widely used in baking as a leavening agent.

The sentence should use “work” instead of “works” because “Neither of” is followed by a plural noun, thus requiring a plural verb. Correct sentence: “Neither of the solutions work.”

Both the assertion and the reason are true. However, the reason R is not the correct explanation of A. While a passport is necessary for international travel, it being proof of nationality is not the reason for its necessity in travel.

In this reverse alphabet code, ‘K’ is written as ‘P’, ‘I’ as ‘R’, ‘L’ as ‘O’. So, ‘KILL’ is coded as ‘PKOO’.

Milk = (7/10) * 30 = 21 litres, Water = 9 litres. Let x litres of water be added. New ratio = 21 : (9+x) = 3 : 7. Solving gives x = 14 litres.

Each letter is assigned a unique number based on its position in ‘OPTICAL’. Using the same coding, ‘TOPICAL’ is coded as ‘3124567’.

A’s 1 day’s work = 1/10, B’s 1 day’s work = 1/15. Together, in 4 days, they complete 4*(1/10 + 1/15) = 2/5 of the work. Remaining work = 1 – 2/5 = 3/5. A will complete this in 3/5 * 10 = 6 more days.

The first two and last two letters of ‘RIVER’ are reversed. Applying the same rule, ‘OCEAN’ becomes ‘COEAN’.

Since B is E’s parent and A’s sibling, and C is A’s parent, C is E’s (and therefore D’s) grandfather.

A ‘Pen’ is used to ‘Write’; similarly, a ‘Brush’ is used to ‘Paint’.

Gain or loss is calculated on cost price. Let the cost price of the first watch be x and the second y. 105% of x = 95% of y = ₹2000. The overall loss = (Selling price of both – Cost price of both) = 4000 – (x + y). Calculating x and y and then the difference shows a 0.25% loss overall.

“Cogent” is the correct choice. It means clear, logical, and convincing, which aligns with an argument based on facts and logical reasoning. Example: “She made a cogent argument for the adoption of renewable energy sources.”

Area of the square = 30 cm × 30 cm = 900 cm². Let the breadth of the rectangle be x cm. Length = 1.2x cm. Area = x × 1.2x = 900 cm². Solving for x gives x ≈ 27 cm, so the length is 1.2 × 27 ≈ 32.4 cm.

The most direct implied outcome of requiring all public transport vehicles to be electric is an increase in electricity consumption (Option B). The other options, while possible, are more indirect and speculative.

The most logical inference is that the flooding caused significant damage, prompting the government to announce relief measures. The other options are assumptions beyond the provided information.

Kambala is a traditional buffalo race held in Karnataka, India. It is a popular and culturally significant event, showcasing the agricultural traditions of the region. Kambala is typically held in the coastal areas of Karnataka during the winter season.

Side of the triangle = Perimeter/3 = 18/3 = 6 cm. Area of an equilateral triangle = (√3/4) * side² = (√3/4) * 6² = 17.320 cm².

Megasthenes was an ancient Greek historian and diplomat who wrote the account ‘Indica’ based on his stay in India. He was an envoy to the court of Chandragupta Maurya, the founder of the Maurya Empire, and his writings provide valuable insights into early Indian history and society.

The relative speed = 60 km/hr – 40 km/hr = 20 km/hr = 20 * (1000/3600) m/s = 5.56 m/s. Let the length of the first train be L meters. Then, the second train’s length is L/2 meters. The total distance covered in overtaking = L + (L/2) = 1.5L meters. Time taken = 30 seconds. So, 1.5L = 5.56 * 30, giving L ≈ 200 meters.

Kepler’s Laws of Planetary Motion describe the orbits of planets around the sun. They state that planets move in elliptical orbits with the sun at one focus, among other things.

“English is spoken all over the world by people” is the correct passive form. The active voice ‘speak’ (present simple) changes to ‘is spoken’ (present simple passive) in passive voice. Example: “Spanish is spoken widely in South America.”

Speed of the second train = 400 km / 4 hrs = 100 km/hr. Using the ratio of speeds, 3:4, speed of the first train = 3/4 × 100 = 75 km/hr.

Neither conclusion necessarily follows from the statements. The first conclusion is a misinterpretation of the relationship, and the second conclusion is not directly supported by the given information.

The Battle of Plassey was fought in 1757 between the British East India Company and the Nawab of Bengal, Siraj ud-Daulah. It marked the beginning of British rule in India.

If the cost price is ₹100, the marked price is ₹120. A 10% discount on ₹120 is ₹12, so the selling price is ₹108. The gain is ₹108 – ₹100 = ₹8, which is an 8% gain.

Bhutan uses ‘Gross National Happiness’ as a measure of its development, a concept introduced by its former King Jigme Singye Wangchuck. It focuses on sustainable and holistic development rather than just economic growth.

The assumption made in the argument is that flexible working hours will lead to increased productivity. It implies a direct correlation between flexible hours and productivity improvements.

Area of a parallelogram = base * height. Let the base be x cm. Then, x * 15 = 180. Solving for x gives x = 12 cm.

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h = π * 5² * 2 = 50π m³.

The most directly implicit assumption in the advertisement is that people want their clothes to last longer (Assumption B). The advertisement suggests this benefit to attract customers. Assumption A is a marketing claim, not necessarily an implicit assumption of the statement.

Since PQ = QR, ΔPQR is isosceles. The angles opposite the equal sides are equal, so ∠QRP = ∠QPR. Let each of these angles be x. Then, x + x + 100° = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle). Solving gives x = 40°.

While heavy rain might cause flooding, flooding can also be caused by other factors like poor drainage. Therefore, we cannot definitively infer that it has rained heavily.

Let the number be x. 35% of x = 175, so x = 175 * 100 / 35 = 500. 50% of 500 = 250.

Let the cost price be ₹x. Selling price = x + 20% of x = 1.2x = ₹816. Solving gives x = ₹680.

The passage indicates that financial literacy includes understanding how to budget, save, invest, and manage debt, which are all aspects of managing personal finances effectively, making “All of the above” the correct answer.

Conclusion I is not necessarily true as there’s no direct link between mangoes and sour things. Conclusion II is also not valid as the statement does not negate mangoes being sour. Therefore, neither conclusion follows.

The passage defines the Baroque period by “elaborate and detailed style,” “dramatic use of light and color,” and “emphasis on motion and contrast,” making “All of the above” the correct option.

Both the length and the width of the rectangle are necessary to calculate its area, as the area of a rectangle is given by the product of its length and width.

Original area = πr². New radius = 1.2r. New area = π(1.2r)² = 1.44πr². The percentage increase in area = (1.44πr² – πr²) / πr² × 100% = 44%.

Let original length = l and breadth = b. New length = 1.2l, new breadth = 1.3b. New area = 1.2l * 1.3b = 1.56lb. Increase = 1.56lb – lb = 0.56lb, which is a 56% increase.
