The correct answer is Both I and II.

Key Points

• Normal vision occurs when light is focused directly on the retina rather than in front or behind it.
• A person with normal vision can see objects clearly near and faraway.
• Nearsightedness results in blurred vision when the visual image is focused in front of the retina, rather than directly on it. It occurs when the physical length of the eye is greater than the optical length.
• For this reason, nearsightedness often develops in the rapidly growing school-aged child or teenager, and progresses during the growth years, requiring frequent changes in glasses or contact lenses.
• A nearsighted person sees near objects clearly, while objects in the distance are blurred.
• Farsightedness is the result of the visual image being focused behind the retina rather than directly on it. It may be caused by the eyeball being too small or the focusing power being too weak.
• Farsightedness is often present from birth, but children can often tolerate moderate amounts without difficulty and most outgrow the condition.
• A farsighted person sees faraway objects clearly, while objects that are near are blurred.
• Since Nearsightedness and Farsightedness (also known as Long-sightedness) are opposite conditions, both pairs represent antonyms.

Given:

Total = 7800

4X = 6Y = 8Z

Solution:

X = 6/4Y = 3/2Y

Z = 6/8 Y = 3/4 Y

Total = 3/2 Y + Y + 3/4 Y = 7800

6Y + 4Y + 3Y = 4 x 7800

13Y = 4 x 7800

Y = 4 x 600 = Rs. 2400

Hence, the correct option is 2.

Given:

Speed = 48 km/h

Before the speed = 32 km/h

Time = 7 hours

Formula used:

Speed = Distance/Time

Solution:

Distance = 48 x 7 = 336 km

Hence, the correct option is 2.

Given:

R1 = 6 hours/day for 18 days

R2 = 15 hours/day for 12 days

Formula used:

Work = Efficiency x days

Solution:

Total hours are taken by R1 = 6 x 18 = 108 hours

Total hours taken by R2 = 15 x 12 = 180 hours

Let, m = time taken in hours by R1 and R2

⇒ 1/108 + 1/180 = 1/m

8m = 540

m = 540/8 hours

Time taken in days if R1 and R2 works 9 hours a day = 540/(8  x 9) = 540/72 = 7.5 days

Hence, the correct option is 3.

Given:

Population = 18000

= 18000 + 2340 = 20340

Let,M = male, F = female population

⇒ 0.15M + 0.1F = 2340

M + F = 18000

F = 18000 - M

⇒ 0.15M + 0.1(18000 - M) = 2340

⇒ 0.15M  + 1800 - 0.1M = 2340

⇒ 0.05M = 2340 - 1800

M = 540/0.05 = 10800

Present population of males = 10800 + 0.15(10800) = 12420

Hence, the correct option is 3.

Given:

Pens sold by S1 = 20

Pens sold by S2 = 30

Pens sold by S3 = 50

Pens sold by S4 = 25

Given:

Income of A = 500

Income of C = 900

Income of D = 600

Income of E = 400

Savings of B = (800 - 200) = 600 

Savings of F = (1000 - 300) = 700

Savings of G = (700 - 200) = 500

Savings of H = (1000 - 400) = 600

Formula Used:

Average = Sum of all observations/Number of observations

Calculation:       

J1: Average of income of companies A, C, D and E = (500 + 900 + 600 + 400)/4

Average of income of companies A, C, D and E = 2400/4 = 600

J2 : Average of savings of companies B, F, G and H = (600 + 700 + 500 + 600)/4

Average of savings of companies B, F, G and H = 2400/4 = 600

According to the question:

J2/J1 = 600/600 = 1

The correct option is 1 i.e. 1

Given:

Milk : Water = 5 : 4, 4 : 3, 13 : 17

mixture taken = 9 L and 21 L

Solution:

For cup1:

(5 + 4)m = 9

m = 1

Milk = 5 L, Water = 4L

Fo cup 2:

(4 + 3)m = 21

m = 3

Milk = 12 L, Water = 9 L

For cup 3:

5 + 12 + 13m = 4 + 9 + 17m

17 - 13 = (17 -13)m

m = 1

Milk = 13L,Water = 17 L

Total mixture for 1 :1 = 13 + 17 = 30 L

Hence, the correct option is 1.

Given:

C = 220 cm

C = P

L = 25 + R

Formula used:

C = 2 x 22/7 x R

P = 2 (L + B)

A = L x B

C = Circumference of the circle

P = Perimeter of the rectangle

R = Radius of circle

L = Length

B = Breadth

A = Area of Rectangle

Solution:

⇒ 220 = 2 x 22/7 x R

R = 35 cm

L = 25 + 35 = 60cm

⇒ 2 (L + B) = 220

B = 110 - 60 = 50cm

Half area = 1/2 x L x B = 1/2 x 60 x 50 = 1500cm² 

Hence, the correct option is 2.

Formula used:

The perimeter of square = 4 x side

Solution:

Let, side = s

P = 4s

New P = 4 x (s + 0.35s) = 4 x 1.35s = 5.4s

Change in Perimeter P = (5.4s - 4s)/4s x 100 = 1.4s/4s x 100 = 0.35 x 100 = 35%

Hence, the correct option is 2.

Calculation:     

\( \frac{1}{5 - \frac{1}{3 - \frac{1}{5 - \frac{1}{4}}}}\)

⇒ \( \frac{1}{5 - \frac{1}{3 - \frac{1}{\frac{20 - 1}{4}}}}\) 

⇒  \( \frac{1}{5 - \frac{1}{3 - \frac{4}{19}}}\)

⇒ \( \frac{1}{5 - \frac{1}{\frac{57 - 4}{19}}}\) 

⇒ \( \frac{1}{5 - \frac{19}{53}}\)

⇒  \( \frac{1}{\frac{265 - 19}{53}}\) 

⇒ \( \frac{53}{246}\)

The correct option is 4 i.e. 53/246

Given:

MP = Rs. 3600

D = 25%

Formula used:

Discount% = [(MP - SP)/MP] x 100

MP = Marked Price

SP = Selling price

Solution:

0.25 = 1 - SP/3600

SP = 3600 x 0.75

SP = Rs. 2700

Hence, the correct option is 4.

Given:

60 dozen for Rs. 76/dozen

20 dozen = 20% Profit

40 dozen = 25% profit

Formula used:

Profit % = (Profit / Cost Price) x 100

Profit = SP - CP

CP = Cost price

SP = Selling price

Solution:

CP for 20 dozen = 20 x 76 = 1520 Rs.

Profit = 0.2 x 1520 = 304Rs.

CP for 40 dozen = 1520 x 2 = 3040 Rs.

Profit = 0.25 x 3040 = Rs.760

Total CP = 1520 x 3 = 4560

Total Profit = 304 + 760 = 1064 Rs.

Profit% = 1064/4560 x 100 = 23.33%

Hence, the correct option is 1.

Given:

A = 7P in T = 10

Formula used:

SI = (P x R x T) /100

A = SI + P

here, 

A = Amount

SI = Simple Interest

P = Principle

R = Rate

T = Time

Solution:

Let's put the values given, in the formula to find the value of SI;

SI = 7P - P = 6P

6P = 10PR/100

R = 60%

For 20 years,

SI = 20 x 60 x P/100

SI = 12P

A = 12P + P = 13P

Hence, the correct option is 3.

Calculation:

Total time taken to make a car = 1200 hours

Percentage of time required for J1 = 14%

Percentage of time required for J4 = 8%

Percentage difference of time between J1 and J4 = (14 - 8)% = 6%

∴ Difference between the time taken in processes J1 and J4 = 6% of 1200 = 72 hours

सही उत्तर 'वास' है।

प्रत्यय - वे शब्द हैं जो दूसरे शब्दों के अन्त में जुड़कर, अपनी प्रकृति के अनुसार, शब्द के अर्थ में परिवर्तन कर देते हैं। 

• "रनिवास" में वास प्रत्यय होता है।
• महल का वह भाग जहाँ रानियाँ निवास करती हैँ - अंतःपुर/रनिवास

Hint

• कई बार प्रत्यय लगने पर मूलशब्द के आदि, मध्य या अन्त में प्रयुक्त स्वरों में परिवर्तन हो जाता है।
• जैसे- रानी + वास = रनिवास, फूल + वाड़ी = फुलवाड़ी
• निवास अपने आप में पूर्ण शब्द है, यह प्रत्यय के अन्तर्गत नहीं आता है।
• अस भी प्रत्यय की दृष्टि से असंगत है।

अतः निष्कर्ष निकलता है कि "रनिवास" में वास प्रत्यय लगा है।
