advice to stop doing this in future(answer), ignore him
17. In a computer system you had to input numbers from 1-300. However the number key
2 was not working. How many numbers can be formed? Ans?
There are 19 numbers which have 2 in it between 1-99 and similarly between 100-199.
There wont be any numbers between 200-300. Hence, 199-38=161 and 300 so total 162..
200 itself has 2 so total it doesnt count
PL
PLZ
Between 1-99 and 100-199 (19 each so 19*2 =38) between 200-300 (99 wont count, only
300 will=99) so answer is 300-(99+38) 137= 163

RC Questions
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DP9upBHPCDI
RC1: Legalising gambling in USA . was it about nba(basketball)?? No It was about how states
raise funding by legalising gambling, example of Nevada was given. So it should be clear that
the RC was related to casino, etc in Las Vegas. CORRECT it was like this REPEATED on
24nov morning
Searched a lot for it. Could not find the exact passage. For reference I will post some closely
linked passages/articles shortly.
http://www.tomorrowsworld.org/magazines/2001/july-august/legalized-gambling-economic-boo
m-or-social-bus This is the closest I could find. Hope that helps!
RC2: Autobiographies are meaningless these days - they should include real life facts (this is
the gist of the RC)
If you can find online plz check that it should have the mention of Frey . what is Frey? ? Frey
is a person.
Basically the RC starts by explaining how autobiographies are written these days. Then later he
goes on to explain how Frey wrote his autobiography by mentioning real life facts (author is
praising Freys biography).
(Please read till the end and see if the passage was something like this?) Once he had signed
with Doubleday, reportedly for an advance of $50,000, the process of editing altered the book -
now billed as a memoir - further, timelines shifted, characters were erased, segments
PL
PLZ
rearranged. "So the idea that nobody at the publishing company knew it was a manipulated
manuscript is an absurd idea," he says. "I remember somebody at the publishing company told
me that if the book's 85% true there's no problem. Certainly that standard wasn't then applied
to it later." (This version of events is disputed by the publishers. Nan Talese, editor-in-chief of A
Million Little Pieces and the senior vice president of Doubleday, told Oprah: "A memoir is
different from an autobiography. A memoir is an author's remembrance of a certain period in
his life. Now, the responsibility, as far as I am concerned, is: does it strike me as valid? Does it
strike me as authentic? I mean, I'm sent things all the time and I think they're not real. I don't
think they're authentic. I don't think they're good. I don't believe them. In this instance, I
absolutely believed what I read.")
NO. Searched a lot for it still could not find the exact passages for both RCs in 9 am slot 21 Nov.

caused by pipe c)
It takes 7.2 minutes for both of A & B to complete the work. Then A is open for
three more minutes.
A and B takes 7 min 12 sec. After closing C 3 more min. So 10min 12sec. 10.2 is

70. Two vessel one with pure milk and the other with water of equal
quantity. In the first go half of vessel A( milk) was poured in vessel B. Later
1/3rd of B was poured in A. What was the milk & water ratio in vessel A.?
Approach: Take A=B= 100l. First step A has 50l of milk and B has 100 liter of
water and 50l of milk (ratio of Water: Milk is 2: 1). Second step A now has =
50l of pure milk +16.67L of milk from b and water= 33.33l there A has Milk:
water = 66.67: 33.33. Hence the answer would be 5:4 is the only option that
comes close
71. The average age of a family of 7 persons 3 ago was 45. Two years ago a
baby was born in the family. What will be the age seven years from now?
Approach: Average age 3 years ago 45*7=315. Average age two years from
then = 315+9 ( 7 people become a year old by 1 year and a baby that was
born 2 years is 2 years old now.). Average age 7 years later would be=
315+9+8*7(as every year from now sum of ages increases by 8). Therefore=
380/8= 42.5 years. <Please confirm>
(total of present age of the family = (45 + 3)*7 + 2 = 338. Therefore present
avg of family = 338/8 = 42.25, avg 7 yrs from now = 49.25 ) CONFIRM

painting out of 5 water color are a must hence 5c3, now the non water
color are 5 and we have to select 4 out of the, therefore 5c4. These can
be arranged (is arrangement is asked, not sure) then 7! Please
confirm.correct.
