CAT Mock Test Series Part- A: Quantitative Aptitude CAT Online Free Mock Test

Q1. The inner circumference of a circular track is 220 m. The track is 7 cm wide. Find the diameter of the outer circle of the track.

  1. 84 m

  2. 42 m

  3. 36 m

  4. 154 m

Ans: (A)

If the radius of the inner circle is r m, then the outer radius is (r+ 7) m

2πr = 220

⇒ r = 35 m

Radius of outer circle = 35+ 7 = 42 m

Diameter of outer circle = 84 m

Q2. A swimming pool 8 metres long, 3 metres wide and 1.5 metres deep is there in a resort. Find the volume of soil removed in cubic metres to make that swimming pool.

Ans: [D]

Volume of right Circular cone = πr2h/3

πr212/3 = 25π

⇒ r = 5/2

Slant height, l = [122+(5/2)2] = (√601)/2 = 5√6 (Approx)

Curved Surface Area = πrl = π(5/2) 5√6 = (25 π√6)/2 cm2

Q4. The outer and inner diameters of a spherical hemispherical bowl are 10 cm and 9 cm respectively. Find the cost of painting the bowl @Rs 10 cm2. (Use π = 3.14)

  1. Rs 1900

  2. Rs 2991

  3. Rs 2839

  4. Rs 2396

Ans: (B)

Total Surface area of the bowl = Area of outer hemisphere + Area of inner hemisphere + Area of top surface

⇒ Total Surface area of the bowl = 2πR2 + 2πr2 + (πR2 - πr2); R is the radius of the outer sphere and r is the radius of the inner sphere.

⇒ Total Surface area of the bowl = 3πR2 + πr2 = π(3R2 + r2) = π(3R2 + r2) = 3.14(300/4 + 81/4) {since outer radius is 10/2 cm and inner radius is 9/2 cm}

⇒ Total Surface area of the bowl = 3.14(300 + 81)/4 = 1196.34/4 cm2

Cost of painting = Rs 10 x 1196.34/4 = Rs 2990.85

Q5. Two cones have their heights in the ratio of 2: 1 and the diameters of their bases are in the ratio of 2√3 :1. What will be the ratio of their volumes?

  1. 1: 24

  2. 2: 1

  3. 24: 1

  4. 1: 1

Ans: [C]

Volume of cone1/Volume of cone 2=R2/r2 X H/h; R is the radius of cone1, r is the radius of cone 2, H is the height of cone 1, h is the height of cone 2

Volume of cone1/Volume of cone2 =(23)2/12 X 2/1 = 24/1

Q6. The diagram represents the area swept by the wiper of a car in a rainy season. With the dimensions given in the figure, calculate the shaded area swept by the wiper.

1695624673363

  1. 12.67 cm2

  2. 20.34 cm2

  3. 14.437 cm2

  4. 28.16 cm2

Ans: [C]

Area of shaded region = 45π/360 (72 – 3.52) = 231/16 cm2 = 14.437 cm2

(Use the formula for area of sector)

Q7. If the curved surface area of a cone is twice that of another cone and the slant height of the second cone is three times that of the first, find the ratio of the area of their base.

  1. 81: 1

  2. 1: 36

  3. 36: 1

  4. 16: 1

Ans: (C)

Let radius and slant height of 1st coin be r and l respectively.

The radius of the second cone be R and the slant height will be 3l.

According to question

πrl = 2πR(3l)

⇒ r/R = 6/1

Therefore,

πr2/πR2 = 36/1

Q8. A solid cuboid of dimension (31 cm x 4 cm x 1 cm) is melted into a hollow cube from the inside of thickness 2 cm. Find the difference between the inner and outer dimensions of the cube.

  1. 2 cm

  2. 3 cm

  3. 1 cm

  4. 4 cm

Ans: [D]

Let the inner dimension of the cube be x, then the outer dimension will be (x+ 4) since the thickness is 2 cm.

Volume of cuboid = Volume of hollow cube

31 x 4 x 1 = (x+4)3 – x3 = (x+ 4- x) ((x+4)2 + x2 + x(x+4))

On simplification, we get

31 = 3x2+ 12x+ 16

⇒ 3x2+ 12x – 15 = 0

So, x = 1 cm

Outer dimension = 1+ 4 = 5 cm

Difference = 5cm – 1cm = 4cm.

CAT 2024 Practice Test Part B: LRDI (Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation)


Passage: CAT 2024 Practice Test

The twelve teams that took part in the World Hockey Championship were divided into two pools of six teams each. In each pool, each team plays exactly one match against each of the other teams in its pool. Two points are awarded for a win, one point for a draw and zero points for a loss. At the end of the pool stage the top two teams from each pool, in terms of the points scored, would advance to the semi-finals and the winner of the semi-finals play the finals, while the losers of the semi-finals play for the third place.

Teams which finished third and fourth respectively in a pool would play with the teams ranked fourth and third respectively in the other pool. The winners of these matches would play to determine the fifth and sixth ranks, while the losers of these matches would play to determine the seventh and eighth ranks.

Similarly, teams that ranked fifth and sixth in each pool would play to determine the ranks from nine to twelve. In case two teams end up with the same number of points at the end of the pool stage, their rankings in the pool stage are determined by their net goal difference.

Note: Net goal difference = goals scored – goals conceded

Directions for Q1-Q2: Type in your answer in the input box provided below the question.

Q1. What is the minimum number of points a team should aim for, at the start of the tournament, to guarantee itself a place in the semi-finals?

Ans:

The worst-case scenario for a team can happen when the top three teams end up with the same number of points and the bottom three with points only from matches won amongst themselves. In this case, one of the top three teams would fail to advance to the semi-finals. Total points scored by the bottom three teams = 6 (points only from matches among themselves).

∴The remaining three teams can have 24/3 = 8 points each and one of them would fail to advance.

∴ A team must have at least 9 points to be sure of a place in the semi-finals. Ans: (9)

Q2. What is the minimum number of points with which a team can reach the semi-finals?

Ans:

Each team in a pool plays five matches. The total number of points for matches between the teams in a pool is 30. A team secures the minimum number of points when one of the teams secures the maximum points, and the remaining teams evenly share the remaining points such that one of the five teams, i.e., the one with the best goal difference, would advance to the semi-finals. Maximum points scored by a team = 10.

∴The points scored by all the other teams = 20/5 = 4. Ans: (4)

Directions for Q3- Q4: Type in your answer in the input box provided in the question.

Q3. The total number of matches played in the tournament is.

Ans:

The number of matches in each pool is 15. The number of matches for the classification of positions from five to eight and nine to twelve is four each. The semi-finals, finals and third-place matches together add up to four matches.

∴ The total number of matches played in the tournament = 15 + 15 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 42. Ans : (42)

Q4. If there are no draws in the championship after the pool stage, the total number of matches won by the team that won the tournament is at least

Ans:

We have seen earlier that a team with four points can advance to the semi-finals. As there are five matches a team can get up to five points without winning a single match.

∴ If a team wins just the semi-finals and the finals, it can win the tournament. Ans: (2)

CAT Test Series Part C: VARC (Verbal Ability & Reading Comprehension) Best Free Mock Test for CAT

Direction (Q1-Q3): You must find the part that contains an error and then choose the sequence of correct parts (excluding the part that is grammatically and contextually incorrect). That sequence will be your answer.

Q1- It is perplexing and exasperating (A)/ that just at the moment when (B)/ you need your memory (C)/ and a nicely sense of discrimination, (D)/ these faculties take to themselves wings and fly away. (E)

  1. ABCD

  2. BCDE

  3. ACDE

  4. ABCE

  5. None of these

Ans. Option D

Explanation: the error lies in part (D) of the sentence. To make the sentence grammatically correct replace “nice” with “nicely”. Since the word required here is an adjective to describe the quality of “sense of discrimination”, therefore option (D) becomes the most suitable.

Q2- Now he is hoping other people (A)/ will also take delight with (B)/ seeing historic photographs (C)/ of buildings which are long gone (D)/ but they have heard of or remember seeing. (E)

  1. ABCD

  2. ACDE

  3. ABCE

  4. ABDE

  5. None of these

Ans. Option B

Explanation: the error lies in part (B) of the sentence. To make the sentence grammatically correct replace, “with” by “in” as the phrase “takes delight” always takes the preposition “in” to form a meaningful sentence. Since all the other parts of the sentence are grammatically correct, option (B) becomes the most suitable.

Q3- Could your MPs joined the protest (A)/ and submitted their resignations to the Speaker, (B)/ the Central government (C)/ would have given in to the (D)/ State’s demand for SCS by now? (E)

  1. ABCD

  2. ACDE

  3. ABCE

  4. ABDE

  5. None of these

Ans. Option E

Explanation: The error lies in part (A) of the sentence. To make the sentence grammatically correct replace “could” with “had” as the correct grammatical syntax of the conditional clause “had…would” is “had+subject+V3” while in the main clause it is “Subject+would+have+V3”. Since all the other parts are grammatically correct, option (E) becomes the most suitable.

Direction (Q4-Q5): The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The number of that part is the answer.

Q4- Important Congress dissident source (A)/ said at one (B)/ stage that Raman Rao and Chandra Shekhar had even asked the (C)/ dissident group to suggest suitable names. (D)/ No Error (E)

  1. A

  2. B

  3. C

  4. D

  5. E

Ans. Option A

Explanation: ‘An’ is used before ‘important’ as ‘source’ is a single countable noun and “a/an” is used before a single countable noun.

Q5- Being that he (A)/ is interested in getting himself examined (B)/ by a head specialist (C)/ we must try our best to take him to a reputed doctor. (D)/ No Error (E)

  1. A

  2. B

  1. ABCDE

  2. DEACB

  3. DAECB

  4. DEABC

  5. ABCED

Ans. Option B

Explanation: not to know modern history is to enter the exhibition at your own peril. What we see are episodes of fragments lifted out of their historic contexts and imbricated, embedded or rendered in another time. Time is not a continuous container of events. Rather it is like a train wreck on a child’s play table, where the containers may be rejoined with little respect for chronology and set on their way again. The nature of this synthesis, the breaking and the joining, as an affective state seems to determine his position with the past and the present.

Directions for question:

Two friends Moloy and Niloy passed out from the Purulia Institute of Science and Technology with B.Tech degrees in Mechanical Engineering, but even after a year placement was hard to find. So they decided to take the challenge head-on, came down to Kolkata, rented a garage space on Park Street, and having an affinity towards making people enjoy good food, started their firm named 'B.Tech Bread-Omlette Wala'. 

They started with three items on the menu. One was the French Toast which could be prepared in 3 minutes. The second was the Egg Tortillas which took 15 minutes to prepare. Any one of Moloy and Niloy could prepare any one of them at a time. The third was the Egg Bhurji with French Fries. This however was prepared on an automated fryer which could prepare 3 servings at a time and took 5 minutes irrespective of the number of servings equal to or below 3. The fryer did not need anyone to attend to it, and the time to put in the raw ingredients could be neglected. So one could tend to the preparation of other items while the Egg Bhurji with French Fries were being prepared. 

They wanted to serve the orders as early as possible after the order was given. The individual items in any order were served as and when all the items were ready, and the order was then considered closed. None of the items on the menu were prepared in advance in anticipation of future orders. 

On the first day, 3 groups of customers came in and ordered at 6.00 pm, 6.10 pm, and 6.13 pm. The first order was for a plate of Egg Tortillas, two plates of French Toast, and three plates of Egg Bhurji with French Fries. The second order was for a plate of French Toast and two plates of Egg Bhurji with French Fries. The third order was for a plate of Egg Tortilla and a plate of Egg Bhurji with French Fries. 

On the backdrop of the above information answer the questions given :

Question: 

Assuming that the next customer's order could only be attended to when the previous customer's order was closed, at what time would the first customer's order be considered closed ?

 

Option: 1

6.15 pm

 

 


Option: 2

6.17 pm

 


Option: 3

6.18 pm

 


Option: 4

Two friends Moloy and Niloy passed out from the Purulia Institute of Science and Technology with B.Tech degrees in Mechanical Engineering, but even after a year placement was hard to find. So they decided to take the challenge head-on, came down to Kolkata, rented a garage space on Park Street, and having an affinity towards making people enjoy good food, started their firm named 'B.Tech Bread-Omlette Wala'. 

They started with three items on the menu. One was the French Toast which could be prepared in 3 minutes. The second was the Egg Tortillas which took 15 minutes to prepare. Any one of Moloy and Niloy could prepare any one of them at a time. The third was the Egg Bhurji with French Fries. This however was prepared on an automated fryer which could prepare 3 servings at a time and took 5 minutes irrespective of the number of servings equal to or below 3. The fryer did not need anyone to attend to it, and the time to put in the raw ingredients could be neglected. So one could tend to the preparation of other items while the Egg Bhurji with French Fries were being prepared. 

They wanted to serve the orders as early as possible after the order was given. The individual items in any order were served as and when all the items were ready, and the order was then considered closed. None of the items on the menu were prepared in advance in anticipation of future orders. 

On the first day, 3 groups of customers came in and ordered at 6.00 pm, 6.10 pm, and 6.13 pm. The first order was for a plate of Egg Tortillas, two plates of French Toast, and three plates of Egg Bhurji with French Fries. The second order was for a plate of French Toast and two plates of Egg Bhurji with French Fries. The third order was for a plate of Egg Tortilla and a plate of Egg Bhurji with French Fries.
