From statement I :
At 9 : 30 the minute and the hour hands will make an angle
alightly more than 90. So now, the time is not
9 O clock.
From Statement II : At 8 : 45, the hour and the minute
hands would coincide with each other. So, time now is not 9
O clock.
From statement I :
B is the father of M and T.
B is the grandfather of F.
The gender of F is not known.
From statement II :
There is no mention of B.
From both the statements.
The gender of F is not known.

Also, M < R and II follows.

Again, R < J and III follows.

(c)

Z = M ... (i); M > K ... (ii); K < F ... (iii)

Combining these, we get Z = M > K < F
From this F and Z cant be compared. Neither can F and M.
Hence, I and III do not follow. But K < Z and II follows.

68.

(b)

B < J ... (i); J W... (ii); W > M ... (iii)

Combining these, we get B < J W > M.
Hence M < J and I follows.
But W and B cant be compared. Neither can B and M.

Some banks are academics = All academics are schools = I +

A = I Some banks are schools. This does not lead us to I. II
follows because All institutes are school.
No force is torque + All torques are powers = E + A = O* =
Some powers are not forces. Hence the possibility of II is
ruled out. All energies are forces + No force is torque = A + E
= E = No energy is torque + All torques are powers = E + A
= O* = Some powers are not energies. This does not rule out
the possibility of I.
It follows from the solution to the above question. But I does
not follow unless we know that All forces are energies.
There being no negative statements, the possibility
(conclusion II) exists but not certainty (conclusion I).

Hence II and III do not follow.

According to statement and given assumptions, we can say

none of the given assumptions is implicit.

(a)

State Governments decision to increase octroi by 5% is based

on the assumption that the assumption that the State
Government is competent to implement the decision and
also get the consent the Central Government. The hike is in
view of earning additional amount. Hence, all are implicit.

Only II and III are implicit as Ashok has decided to keep a

margin of 2 hr in advance assuming that he may be able to
reach the airport will before 6:00 pm and also get adequate
time to search for a vehicle too go to the airport.
Sol. (8185) :
81. (b) All institutes are academic. All academics are schools = A + A
= A = All institute are schools. Hence I does not follow. Some
institute are banks (I) conversion Some banks are
institute (I) + All institutes are academics = I + A =\ I = Some
banks are academics. Hence the possibility of II exists.

moves downwards (along the vertical line) and one it reaches

the lowermost position, it moves to the topmost position in
the next step. In the LHS element, the square moves up and
down sequentially. It also turns to the other side of the vertical
line in every second step. In the RHS element, the arrowhead
moves from right to left and once it reaches the leftmost
position, it moves to the rightmost position in the next step.
The arrowhead also gets laterally inverted in every second
step. In the lower element, the horizontal line segment remains
unchanged while the other line segment moves from right to
left and once it reaches the leftmost position, it moves to the
rightmost position in the next step. It also shifts to the other
side of the horizontal line in each step.
In each step, the symbols in the row at the middle position
interchange positions and the symbol that reaches the RHS
position gets replaced by a new symbol. In the other row, the
elements move one space to the right and the rightmost element
moves to the leftmost position in each step. Also, this row
changes its position (from upper to lower and vice-versa) in
each step.

In the first step the upper middle shifts to middle left

lower left upper middle while the remaining four shift one
step CW in a cyclic order. In the next step the middle row
elements shift from left to right in a cycle order while the
remaining five shift one step CW.
In the first step the upper left and middle right interchange
places ; so do the upper right and middle left. The remaining
three elements shift one step CW. In the next step the lowerleft and lower-right elements are replaced by new ones while
the remaining five shift one step ACW in a cyclic order.
In each step the upper middle rotates by 45 CW and the
lower middle rotates by 45 ACW. Among the middle-row
elements two pairs interchange places while the fifth element
is replaced by new one successively from the right to left,
beginning from the right.
From fig 1 to 2: The upper left and the middle left interchange
positions while the remaining five elements shift one step
CW in a cyclic order.
Follow the shifting of the elements in alternate steps.
In each step, all the existing elements move one space ACW;
a new element is added at the ACW-end and the two elements
at the CW-end interchange positions.
