Show Solution

The Correct Option is C

Approach Solution - 1

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Each person's full set of vehicles comes from combining every statement that names them, so check each candidate's combined set against the three required vehicles: Motorcycle, Lorry and Tempo.

Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
Tempo only appears in one statement, T and R are good in Bus and Tempo, so only T and R can possibly qualify. Between the given options, only T appears.

Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
T's vehicles come from two statements: R, S and T are good in Motor Cycle and Lorry gives T Motorcycle and Lorry, and T and R are good in Bus and Tempo gives T Bus and Tempo.
Combining these, T drives Motorcycle, Lorry, Bus and Tempo, which covers all three vehicles the question asks about.
P, Q and S are never mentioned in the Tempo statement, so none of them can have Tempo in their profile, ruling them out.

Step 4: Final Answer:
T is good at driving Motorcycle, Lorry and Tempo.

Approach Solution -2

Step 1: Filter by Motorcycle.
Checking the four options, P and Q appear in "P and Q are good in driving Motor cycle and Jeep", and S and T appear in "R, S and T are good in driving Motor Cycle and Lorry". So all four options, P, Q, S and T, drive Motorcycle, and none is eliminated at this stage.

Step 2: Filter by Lorry.
Lorry appears in "R and P are good in driving Jeep and Lorry" (giving P Lorry) and "R, S and T are good in driving Motor Cycle and Lorry" (giving S and T Lorry). Q never appears in a Lorry-granting statement, so Q is eliminated here, leaving P, S and T.

Step 3: Filter by Tempo.
Tempo appears only in "T and R are good in driving Bus and Tempo". Of the remaining candidates, P and S never appear in this statement, so both are eliminated, leaving only T.

Step 4: Final Answer:
T is the only option left after filtering by Motorcycle, Lorry and Tempo in turn, so T drives all three.

Question: 2

Show Solution

The Correct Option is C

Approach Solution - 1

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Build each candidate's full vehicle list from every statement mentioning them, then check for Motorcycle, Jeep and Lorry while making sure Bus is absent.

Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
Jeep only appears in three statements: Motor Cycle and Jeep, Jeep and Lorry, and Bus and Jeep. So only P, Q, R and S can possibly have Jeep; T is ruled out immediately since Jeep never appears with T.

Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
P appears in Motor Cycle and Jeep and Jeep and Lorry, giving P Motorcycle, Jeep and Lorry, and P is never mentioned in the Bus and Tempo statement, so P has no Bus.
R also has Motorcycle, Jeep and Lorry, but R is mentioned in Bus and Tempo too, so R fails the not-Bus condition.
S has Jeep and Bus from Bus and Jeep, and Motorcycle and Lorry from the third statement, but S also has Bus, so S fails as well.
Q has Motorcycle and Jeep, and Bus from the fifth statement, but never Lorry, so Q fails the Lorry requirement.

Step 4: Final Answer:
P is the one who drives Motorcycle, Jeep and Lorry but not Bus.

Show Solution

Approach Solution -2

Step 1: Check Motorcycle and Lorry for all four options first.
R, S and T all appear in "R, S and T are good in driving Motor Cycle and Lorry", giving them both vehicles. P appears in "P and Q are good in driving Motor cycle and Jeep" for Motorcycle and in "R and P are good in driving Jeep and Lorry" for Lorry. So all four options, R, S, P and T, already have both Motorcycle and Lorry, and none is eliminated yet.

Step 2: Filter by Jeep.
Jeep appears in three statements: "P and Q are good in driving Motor cycle and Jeep" (P), "R and P are good in driving Jeep and Lorry" (R), and "S and Q are good in driving Bus and Jeep" (S). T never appears in any of these, so T is eliminated for lacking Jeep, leaving R, S and P.

Step 3: Filter by the not-Bus condition.
Bus appears in "T and R are good in driving Bus and Tempo" (R) and "S and Q are good in driving Bus and Jeep" (S). Both R and S are therefore eliminated for having Bus, leaving only P.

Step 4: Final Answer:
P is the only option left after filtering by Jeep and then excluding Bus, so P drives Motorcycle, Jeep and Lorry but not Bus.

Question: 3

Who is good in driving Tempo, Motorcycle, Lorry but not Jeep?

Show Solution

The Correct Option is B

Approach Solution - 1

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Since Tempo is mentioned in only one statement, only the two people named there can possibly satisfy a question that requires Tempo.

Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
T and R are good in driving Bus and Tempo is the only place Tempo appears, so only T and R qualify for the Tempo requirement. Check each of these two against the Jeep condition.

Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
R is also named in R and P are good in driving Jeep and Lorry, which gives R the Jeep skill. Since the question needs not-Jeep, R fails this test.
T is named in R, S and T are good in Motor Cycle and Lorry and in the Tempo statement, but never in any statement that grants Jeep. So T has Tempo, Motorcycle and Lorry, with no Jeep at all.
S and Q never appear in the Tempo statement, so they cannot be considered regardless of their Jeep status.

Step 4: Final Answer:
T drives Tempo, Motorcycle and Lorry but not Jeep.

Show Solution

Approach Solution -2

Step 1: Check Motorcycle and Lorry for all four options.
S, T and R all appear in "R, S and T are good in driving Motor Cycle and Lorry", so all three already have Motorcycle and Lorry. Q does not appear in this statement at all, so Q is eliminated right away for lacking both Motorcycle and Lorry.

Step 2: Filter by Tempo.
Tempo appears only in "T and R are good in driving Bus and Tempo", covering T and R. S never appears in this statement, so S is eliminated for lacking Tempo, leaving T and R.

Step 3: Filter by the not-Jeep condition.
Jeep appears in "R and P are good in driving Jeep and Lorry" among others, which grants R Jeep. R is therefore eliminated for having Jeep, while T is never mentioned in any Jeep-granting statement, so T survives this filter.

Step 4: Final Answer:
T is the only option left after filtering by Motorcycle and Lorry, then Tempo, then excluding Jeep, so T drives Tempo, Motorcycle and Lorry but not Jeep.

Show Solution

The Correct Option is A

Approach Solution - 1

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
A person can only be shown to drive all five vehicles if the statements that mention them, combined, cover every one of the five: Motorcycle, Jeep, Lorry, Bus and Tempo.

Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
Count how many separate statements mention each candidate, then combine the vehicles from all of them.

Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
R is named in three statements: Jeep and Lorry (with P), Motor Cycle and Lorry (with S and T), and Bus and Tempo (with T). Together these give R all five vehicles: Motorcycle, Jeep, Lorry, Bus and Tempo.
P is named in only two statements and never gets Bus or Tempo, so P covers just three of the five vehicles.
S is named in two statements, Motor Cycle and Lorry and Bus and Jeep, giving Motorcycle, Lorry, Bus and Jeep, but never Tempo, so S covers four of the five vehicles. T is named in two statements, Motor Cycle and Lorry and Bus and Tempo, giving Motorcycle, Lorry, Bus and Tempo, but never Jeep, so T also covers four of the five vehicles.

Step 4: Final Answer:
R is the only one whose combined profile covers all five vehicles.

Approach Solution -2

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Instead of checking which specific vehicle is missing for each person, simply tally how many of the five vehicles each candidate's combined statements actually cover. Only a tally of 5 out of 5 can be the answer.

Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
List every vehicle each candidate is linked to across all the statements, then count the total.

Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
P: Motorcycle, Jeep, Lorry, a tally of 3.
S: Motorcycle, Lorry, Bus, Jeep, a tally of 4.
T: Motorcycle, Lorry, Bus, Tempo, a tally of 4.
R: Jeep, Lorry, Motorcycle, Bus, Tempo, a tally of 5, the full set.

Step 4: Final Answer:
Only R's tally reaches all 5 vehicles, so R is the one who drives all of them.

Read the passage and answer the question.

Passage (extract): The work which Gandhiji had taken up was not only regarding the achievement of political freedom but also the establishment of a new social order based on truth and non-violence, unity and peace, equality and universal brotherhood and maximum freedom for all. A new order cannot be established without radically changing the mind and attitude of men towards property and, at some stage or the other, the 'haves' have to yield place to the 'have-nots'. We have seen, in our time, attempts to achieve a kind of egalitarian society and the picture of it after it was achieved. But this was done, by and large, through the use of physical force. It may even be that, like a gas kept confined within containers under great pressure, or water held back by a big dam, once the barrier breaks, the reaction will one day sweep back with a violence equal in extent and intensity to what was used to establish and maintain the outward egalitarian form. This enforced egalitarianism contains, in its bosom, the seed of its own destruction. If egalitarianism is to endure, it has to be based not on the possession of the maximum material goods by a few or by all but on voluntary, enlightened renunciation of those goods which cannot be shared by others or can be enjoyed only at the expense of others.

Passage (extract): The work which Gandhiji had taken up was not only regarding the achievement of political freedom but also the establishment of a new social order based on truth and non-violence, unity and peace, equality and universal brotherhood and maximum freedom for all. This unfinished part of his experiment was perhaps even more difficult to achieve than the achievement of political freedom. In the political struggle, the fight was against a foreign power and all one could do was either join it or wish it success and give it his/her moral support. In establishing a social order on this pattern, there was a strong possibility of a conflict arising between diverse groups and classes of our own people.

According to the passage, which was the unfinished part of Gandhi's experiment?

Passage (extract): In the political struggle, the fight was against a foreign power and all one could do was either join it or wish it success and give it his/her moral support. Experience shows that man values his possessions even more than his life because in the former he sees the means for perpetuation and survival of his descendants even after his body is reduced to ashes. We have seen, in our time, attempts to achieve a kind of egalitarian society and the picture of it after it was achieved. But this was done, by and large, through the use of physical force. This enforced egalitarianism contains, in its bosom, the seed of its own destruction. The root cause of class conflict is possessiveness or the acquisitive instinct.
