guys..how do i get the pdf format of the qstn paper???it only gives me the printing optn in the TIME site... !!!!

Isko alligations se bana sakte hai.

W_____X______Y______Z
90___100____144____196
__96____120_____M____
4_____6______5______x

(90*4 + 100*6 + 144*5 + 160*x)/(15+x) = 120
40x = 120

x = 3.

So, W:Z = 4:3

exactly the method i followed....but ur explanation is way better......hope i could explain better to fellow aspirants in the coming days....... im a newbie yet, so can be excused for a few days

Will you please explain it?
Thanks in advance.

Can someone solve q28 of section 1....i feel all options are incorrect....I got an answer of 30....checked it manually also...can someone confirm...???

I am unable to understand the solution of this question....
Here is how i solved this....

Each of the 9 numbers 1,2,3...9 give remainders 0,1,2...
so we can select 1 out of numbers giving remainder 0...1 out of numbers giving remainder 1...1 out of numbers giving remainder 2

No. of ways = 3C1 X 3C1 X 3C1=27

Another possibilities:
when we select all numbers giving 0 remainder= 1 way
when we select all numbers giving 1 remainder= 1 way
when we select all numbers giving 2 remainder= 1 way

so total possibilities=27+3=30


but the answer given is 37...I tried manually also...getting exactly 30...
Can someone point out where I am going wrong...Thanx in advance..!!

Puys I have a doubt in that Sita Gita question. It is correct that the max no of Red & Green Balls will be given by Sita's table but isn't it also true that min no of Red & Green balls will be given by Gita's table and similarly for the yellow, blue & black colored balls??
If this is true then how come Gita is counting lesser no of yellow and blue balls as compared to Sita?

There are 4 baskets W,X,Y,Z containing 4 different varieties of oranges. the number of oranges in each basket is unknown. The avg weight of the oranges in the 4 basket combined is equal to 120 gm.

@techsurge - i normally find equations a little tricky so i just bank my arithmetical abilities......explaining it wud be rather tuff here, but i will try......
as per alligations....... (96-90)/(100-96) = 6/4.....therefore x = 1.5w
similarly 100-120-144......therefore y = 5x/6 = 1.25w

w:x:y = 4:6:5

4*90 + 6*100 + 5*144 = 360+600+720 = 1680 for 15baskets (4+5+6)

but average is 120, therefore 120*15 = 1800

deficiency to be covered by Z = 1800-1680 = 120
one basket of Z covers 160-120 = 40 kgs deficiency

therefore 120/40 = 3baskets

Almost never expected such good percentile for my score:

QA n DI : 41(98.15 %ile):)

Let, there is 'a' number of orange in 'W' basket, 'b' oranges in X, 'c' in Y and 'd' in Z.

Now, then total weight of orange= 90a+100b+144c+160d
Again, total no. of orange=(a+b+c+d)
So, total weight of orange= 120(a+b+c+d)
So, 90a+100b+144c+160d=120(a+b+c+d)
=>30a+20b=24c+40d ---(i)

Again, 90a+100b=96(a+b)
=>6a=4b ---(ii)

Again, 100b+144c=120(b+c)
=>20b=24c ---(iii)

So, 30a=20b=24c
Putting it in (i),
30a+30a=30a+40d
=>30a=40d
=>(a/d)=(4/3) ---(Ans)

All the best.

The world has crossed the milestone of seven billion people, and there is renewed debate on the impact of a growing number of humans on the planet's finite resources. Neo-Malthusian arguments, centred mostly on environmental concerns, are pitted against the optimistic view that economic development will safely stabilise birth rates. The population question is complex and there is no panacea for the travails of hundreds of millions of deprived citizens who need food, shelter, safe water, and energy. It is distressing that more than 800 million people live in slums and a similar number, mostly women, are not literate. In the popular imagination, growing populations can only have a negative outcome, depleting scarce resources faster more so in an era of economic uncertainty. The dilemma therefore is whether to enlarge the pie or reduce the number of hands competing for a share.

Whats wrong with time...
The sentence completion passage:
Not long ago, American culture abhorred lawyers, mistrusted journalists and envied bankers. Today we ignore lawyers, pity journalists and despise those who are connected to Wall Street for undermining their own companies, trashing the global economy and being insanely overpaid. Public sentiment has judged the lot of them guilty as hell and sentenced them indefinitely to a mid-six-figure stockade.

oldkool Says

Hey puys I think Question 12 of Section 1 is incorrect.... if it says first 1002 whole numbers then actually there are first 1001 natural numbers...hence remainder should be 2 not 3.. pls help on this front

first number is 0 which doesn't counts so

sum of first 1002 whole numbers = 0+ sum of first 10001 natural numbers= sum of first 10001 natural numbers

hence sum them and take their digit sum to get answer

solutions jitna chota method nhi hai par ho gaya tha..
baskets me oranges be w,x,y,z
90w+100X=96(w+x)
x=1.5w
100x+144Y=120(x+y)
y=5x/6=1.25w
90w +100x+ 144y+160z=120(w+x+y+z)
isme x aur y ko 1.5w aur 1.25w put karne par we get 4/3..
hope this helps:)

Dont know what happened in Quant, couldn't attempt as much I had wanted to.The calculation intensive questions meant I missed out on a sitter in the end.By the time I read the rectangle length-breadth wala question, and knew it could be done,time up! :/

FINALLY, AIMCAT is back to its original level. After 2 easy mocks, T.I.M.E finally proves again that AIMCATS are the toughest mocks of all time. The QA section was on the difficult side.

My messed up scores:..
QA- (11/14) - 30
VA (17/22)- 46

OA- 76

The RC's were longer than usual again and the LR sets were very lengthy. I had to skip one full LR set because of this in order to be able to attempt VA questions.(still couldn't look at PJs properly)

Got stuck in a few questions in QA and there was a power cut 2 times killing the flow of the exam(and costing a few mins as well). Couldn't attempt 2 sitters because of this. Feels bad to mess up my stronger section :banghead:
