ANSWERS
1. (3)
From statement I
Weight of each stone = 8 kg
Weight of 8 stones = 64 kg
From statement II
Weight of each stone = 16/(5-3) = 8 kg
Weight of 8 stones = 64 kg
2. (4)
Even after combining both statement we can say that A has only one daughter B and at least two sons D and E, but the exact number of children of A cannot be found.
3. (2)
Using statement II alone, we can say that S is mother of P.
4. (3)
Using statement I alone
B is fourteenth from the left and seventeenth from the right. Hence number of children in the row = 14 + 17 – 1 = 30
Using statement II alone
D is thirteenth from the right end and eighteenth from the left end. Hence number of children in the row = 13 + 18 – 1= 30
5. (5)
Using both the statement together
Number of pages read before Saturday = 3/5 of 150 = 90
Number of pages read after Saturday = 25
Number of pages read by Vishal on Saturday = 150 – 90 – 25 = 35
