Questions were mainly from age, ratio proportional, speed and distance, sequence,
probability, work and time, average, blood relation, area and volume and one logical
question.
1. X is 3 years yunger to Y. X's father is a businessman who invested 10000/- at 8% rate of interest n
obtained his amount after 10 years. Y's father is a job holder who invested around 20000 at 2% rate
n obtained his amount after 20 years.Now Compunded both of dem get around ABC rs/-(dnt
remenbr).After 5 years the ratio of ages of X n Y is 1:2. Now X's father is 20 years older to Y n Y'
father is 30 years more than X. After 20 years again X's mother asks X's father to purchase a LCD TV

15. ) To travel 2.6 miles $ 2.25 is charged and the tax is $0.34 for 2/5 th mile. That means how
much to travel 3.6 miles? I made mistake in this question during exam .(ANS total distance is
3.6 .for the first 2.6 miles $2.25,Remaining distance is 1 mile .after that for every 2/5 th mile
charges 0.34 according to that rate for xtra 1 mile charges $0.85 so total charge is
2.25+0.85=3.10)

29. 1. 6 persons standing in queue with different age group, after two years their average
age will be 43 and seventh person joined with them. hence the current average age has
become 45. find the age of seventh person?
Solution: Here the question appear as an easy one, but carried a lot of unwanted
sentences and unwanted datas (i dint mention above) in exam which may confuse you
on solving technique.
http://www.ChetanaS.org
Let x be current average age of first 6 persons in queue and current age of seventh
person be y. Then 6x will become the sum of those 6 persons age.
Now, let compute the sum of those 6 persons after two years, 6x+12 (as each and
individual increase their age by 2). hence its average become (6x+12)/6 = 43 (give in
question itself).
So now we can compute x from above equation. (x = 41, 6x = 246)
Let now we compute y, ((6x+y)/7) = 45, as we have value of x, compute y.
Ans: 69
2. Horse started to chase dog as it relieved stable two hrs ago. And horse started to ran
with average speed 22km/hr, horse crossed 10 mts road and two small pounds with
depth 3m, and it crossed two small street with 200 mts length. After traveling 6 hrs,
2hrs after sunset it got dog. compute the speed of dog?
Ans: As we have speed and travel time of horse, we can get distance travelled by it...
Hence d = 22*6 = 132km,
Exactly this 132km was travelled by dog in 8 hours (as it started two hours earlier).
Hence speed of dog = 132/8 = 16.5km/hr
Ans: 16.5km/hr.
3. 3, 22 , 7, 45, 15, ? , 31
Solution: Here it appear simple, because it arranged in arranged in sequence manner,
but the actual question was some what twist mentioning fibonacci series and more over
question was in statements (no numbers).. hence first try to understand the question
well.
here let group alternate terms 3,7,15,31 (3+4 =7, 7+8 =15, 15+16=31)
Similarly for second group (22,45,? (22+23 = 45, 45+46 = 91) hence ans is 91.
4. In Tnagar many buildings were under residential category.for buildings they number
as 1 to 100. For shops, corporation numbered between 150 and 200 only prime
numbers. how many time 6 will appear in building numbering?
Ans:
For 1 to 10 - 1 six
2 to 20 - 1 six
Similarly upto 59 we utilise six, 5 times
from 60 to 69 (including 66) from 70 to 100 - 3, hence ans = 5+11+3 = 19
Ans:20.
5. ((4x+3y)+(5x+9y))/(5x+5y) = ? as (x/2y) = 2
Ans: 2 (simple algebra, I think no need of explanation)
6: If we subract a number with y, we get 4 increase of number, once it got divided by y
itself.. Find that number??
Ans: 12 (we can easily predict from options, as we take y as 6)
7. I dont remember exactly the question, one logical problem stating the colour of beer?
Ans: white.
8. Jumbled letters, parakeet (answer)
Ans: bird (category)
9. ratio proportional problem with age. Sorry, dint remember exact question.
10. one question like. (209*144)^2 + (209*209)+(209*144)+(144*144) = ?
Ans: here you can use calc, many(4 to 5) questions were depend upon calc alone.(no
need problem solving technique).
11. Im only son for my parents. (some irrelevant statements in the middle to distract
you). The man in picture is my father's son. (some irrelevant statements).who is he?
Ans: he himself (blood relation type of question).
As I suggesfully answered these above mentioned questions, I m unable to get through
the process. Then you just think off, that how far you have to prepare to crack this.
Take the exam as serious one and crack the competetive world.
30. 1. ((63*63*63)-(27*27*27))/((63*63)+(63*27)+(27*27)) = ?
Ans: 32
a3-b3=(a-b)(a2+ab+b2) (consider a3 = a*a*a)
2. Sum of ages of two persons is given and ratio of ages is given. find the age of first
person after 7 years. (Unnecessary data given about the two persons in 4-5 lines to
divert our attention)
3. Another problem on ages. Simple one as above (It also contains unuseful data)
4. blood relation qstn. simple one
5. A problem on average of student marks.
6. Coding and Decoding problem.
hi
tcs conducted the test in online.
we have to answer 35 questions in 60 minutes.
there is no prior preperation required to answer the questions.
the only tricky thing in the paper is that the questions are too long to
read,so one should answer the questions at a faster rate and skip those
which are tough.
ex:1colour of the bear????????????
QUESTIONS,WHICH I REMEMBER
2problems on relations3.simple intrest-compound intrest =------------4.mixtures and proportions
5.problem on ages-----------------
6.pipes pblm-----------------7. x+y=9 xy =20 then X ^2+Y^2=?
8.ratios
9. averages
atleast attempt 19-20 correctly
there will be *negative marking* of 1/3 mark
so be carefull
we can be able to go to any question at the given point of time
a^3 + b^3 based questions
we can also use calc from system or else from our own!
there will be hints in which we will have basic formulas if you forget them
please see the basics
2 questions related to verbal and 33 questions are only from
quant....................
ALL THE BEST
