1.  

Directions (1–5): Practice data (hypothetical). The table gives the beds, occupied beds, vacant beds and occupancy (occupied beds as a per cent of beds) of five hospitals on one day. Some values are missing (–). Vacant = beds − occupied.

Hospital Beds Occupied Vacant Occupancy (%)
H1 400 – 80 –
H2 – 225 – 90
H3 600 – – 70
H4 – 270 90 –
H5 – – 72 85
How many beds does hospital H5 have?

Correct Answer: B [480]

Explanation:

Vacant 72 = 15% of beds → beds = 480.

2.  
What is the total number of vacant beds in the five hospitals?

Correct Answer: A [447]

Explanation:

80 + 25 + 180 + 90 + 72 = 447.

3.  
Which hospital has the highest occupancy?

Correct Answer: B [H2]

Explanation:

H1 80%, H2 90%, H3 70%, H4 270/360 = 75%, H5 85% → H2.

4.  
What is the ratio of occupied beds in H3 to occupied beds in H4?

Correct Answer: C [14 : 9]

Explanation:

5.  
What is the average number of beds per hospital?

Correct Answer: E [418]

Explanation:

H2 = 225 ÷ 0.9 = 250, H4 = 270 + 90 = 360 → (400 + 250 + 600 + 360 + 480) ÷ 5 = 418.

Only 2023 has negative growth (−10%) → deposits fell from 660 to 594.

8.  
What were the deposits (₹ crore) in 2024?

Correct Answer: D [742.5]

Explanation:

594 × 1.25 = 742.5.

9.

Explanation:

742.5 ÷ 500 = 1.485 → 48.5%.

10.  
In which year were the deposits the highest?

Correct Answer: E [2025]

Explanation:

2025 still grows (+8%) over 2024 → 801.9 is the highest (a smaller growth rate is still growth).

Directions (16–19): In each question two equations I and II are given. Solve them and choose: A) x > y, B) x < y, C) x ≥ y, D) x ≤ y, E) x = y or the relation cannot be established.

I. x² − 24x + 143 = 0 II. y² − 21y + 110 = 0

Correct Answer: C [x ≥ y]

Explanation:

x = 11, 13; y = 10, 11. All pairs → x ≥ y.

17.

Explanation:

x = 5/2, 3; y = 1/4, 2/3. All pairs → x > y.

19.  
I. x² = 1296 II. y³ = 46656

Correct Answer: D [x ≤ y]

Explanation:

x = ±36; y = 36 (one real cube root) → 36 = 36, −36 < 36 → x ≤ y.
