CAT Practice Papers: Answers And Solutions

Part A (Quantitative Aptitude)

CAT entrance exam question papers with answers:

Ans1: (c)

To find the maximum value of ‘n’, we have to count the number of 7s in 138!

So, n = [138/7] + [138/49], where [x] = maximum integer function

So, n = 19 + 2 =21


Ans 2: (b)

Do Prime factorization of 1430

i.e. 1430 = 13 x 11 x 5 x 2

n! must be 13 or greater since before 13, n! do not contain any 13.

So, the answer must be n = 13 (13! Will contain at least one 5, one 2, one 11 and one 13)


Ans 3: (a)

When 54 i.e. 625 divided by 626, the remainder is -1.

591 = (54x22) x53 = (62522) x125

Rem (591/626) = Rem {(62522) x125/ 626} = Rem {(-1)22 x125/626} = 125


Ans 4: (c)

2n has 8 factors. So, 2n must be of the form of one of the following:

2n = axbxc (no of factors = 2x2x2 = 8, here a, b and c are prime numbers)

Or

2n = axb3 (no of factors = 2x4 = 8, here a and b are prime numbers)

It is clear from here a= 2.

3n has 6 factors. So, 3n must be of the form of one of the following:

3n = b5 (no of factors = (5+1) = 6, where b is a prime numbers)

Or

3n = cxb2 (no of factors = 2x3 = 6, here c and b are prime numbers)

It is clear from here b = 3.

Here c will be a prime number other than 2 and 3.

Case 1:

2n = ax b3= 2n = 2x33; both cases of 3n will not be possible. So 2n cannot be ax b3.

Case 2:

2n = axbxc = 2x3xc; 3n = cxb2 = cx32 is possible

So, n = 3xc

6n = 2x32×c

No of factors = (1+1) x (2+1) x (1+1) = 2x3x2 = 12


Ans 5: 10 possible pairs are there.

Solution is as follows:

Let x = h x a; y = h x b, where h is HCF of x and y; a and b are co-primes

LCM = h x a x b

ATQ

h x a x b – h = 42

h (a x b - 1) = 42

H

(a x b - 1)

a x b

(1, 2)

Total possible pairs in a and b are 10.

Therefore, 10 pairs in x and y exist.


Ans 6: (d)

Take the HCF of the number of pairs of shoes and divide the total number of pair of shoes by HCF to find the minimum number of boxes required.

HCF (16, 64, 48, 88, 92, 60, 120, 44) = 4

Number of boxes are required = (16+64+48+88+92+60+120+44)/4 = 133

Since n is even, unit digit of 42n + 1 = 4 (Since 4^odd is always gives 4 as unit digit)

and unit digit of 4n = 6 (Since 4odd is always gives 6 as unit digit)


Ans 7: (c)

Price is increased by 30% means, if initial price was Rs 10 then new price will be Rs. 13

E2 (New Expenditure) = E1 (old Expenditure)

Using,

E2/E1 = (New Price/ Old Price) x (New Consumption/ Old Consumption)

1 = 13/10 x(New Consumption/ Old Consumption)

So, (New Consumption/ Old Consumption) = 10/13

We can say consumption will reduce from 13 to 10 i.e. 23.07%


Ans 8: (b)

Let there are 100x and 100y men and women respectively (Age more than 18 yrs)

Married Men = Married Women

i.e. 36x = 45y

So, x = 5y/4

Total Men = 100x = 100x5y/4 = 125y

Total Population (more than 18yrs) = 125y + 100y = 225y

Men = 125y × 100/225y % = 55.55%.


Ans 9: (d)

Cost of AC-III berth = Rs 2000

Cost of AC-II berth = Rs 2400

Cost of AC-I berth = Rs 2880

Maximum revenue is when all the berths are filled

Revenue from AC-III Coaches = 3x64x2000 = Rs 384000

Revenue from AC-II Coaches = 6x45x2400 = Rs 648000

Revenue from AC-I Coaches = 4x24x2880 = Rs 276480

Total revenue = Rs 384000 + Rs 648000 + Rs 276480 = Rs 1308480


Ans 10: (b)

Revenue from AC-I coaches = Rs 276480

Total Revenue = Rs. 1308480

Share of AC-I = 276480 × 100/1308480 = 21.13%

Part-B: LRDI Sets For CAT 2025

Direction (Q1-Q3):

The graph below informs about the total area and the population density for 8 different countries. The area of all countries is the same for the two years 2002 and 2008 and is shown by the bar graph, read off from the right-hand Y-axis. The population density is dividing the total population of the country by the area and is depicted by the line graphs and is read off the left-hand Y-axis. The two line graphs refer to the population density in the years 2002 and 2008.

1695015797357

Q1. How many countries had a higher population in 2008 as compared to 2002?

  1. 8

  2. 7

  3. 6

  4. Cannot be determined.

Q2. Find the increase in the population of F from 2002 to 2008.

  1. 5.44 mn

  2. 5.44 lacs

  3. 5,440

  4. Cannot be determined

Q3. The country with the largest population in 2008 among the given countries is

  1. A

  2. E

  3. F

  4. Cannot be determined

Population Density = \text {$\frac{Population}{Area}$}

Thus, the Population of a country can be found by multiplying the population density by the area.

CAT Practice Papers: Answers And Solutions

Part B (LRDI)

1. c

Since for all countries, the area remains the same over the two years, 2002 and 2008, then if population density has increased from 2002 to 2008, the population has increased and if population density has decreased, then the population has decreased. The number of countries having a population density in 2008 more than that in 2002 is 6 (except B and E)

2. a

The increase in the population of F = (70 – 62) × 680,000 i.e. 8 × 680,000 = 5,440,000 i.e. 5.44 mn.

3. b

Since the area has remained the same in 2002 and 2008, the percentage increase in the population is the same as the percentage increase in the population density. Thus, the required percentage growth is percentage growth from 46 to 56 i.e. a decrease of 10/46 i.e., 10/46 x100 = 21.73%

The country with the largest population is going to be one that has a higher population density as well as a higher area. Looking for this combination in the graph, the choices are narrowed down to E and F. (Each of the rest of the countries has both the area and the population density lower than one of these two countries)

Population of E in 2008 = 76 × 600 = 45600 thousand.

Population of F in 2008 = 70 × 680 = 47600 thousand.

Thus, in 2008, the highest population is F.

CAT Practice Papers: Answers And Solutions

Part B (LRDI)

Solutions:

Since 1664165830232, and we are given Production and Yield figures, so re-arranging the relation to get area, we have 1664165831241. With the units given, we will get the area in million hectares.

4. c

Just check the table where the yield in second row is more then the yield in the first row in 2008

We see that for Rice, Maize and Pulses, the yield in Summer is more than the yield in Winter.

5. b

The area under cultivation of rice in Winter season in successive years can be found as 1664165831441. And we have to find in which year the growth rate is the greatest. Just by solving the above fraction, we found that in 2008 we have the highest growth rate

6. a

I. Area = 1664165830724 = 4.46

II. Area = 1664165829979 =6.4

III. Area = 1664165829587=10.51

Thus, increasing order will be I, II, III

7. a

The area for Rice, Jowar, Maize and Pulses is found as 1664165831626

Hello there,

With a 65 percentile in CAT and belonging to the General category , getting admission to USMS (University School of Management Studies) can be challenging, as their cutoffs are generally higher, typically around 85-90 percentile or more. However, admission can depend on factors like:

  • Category-wise cutoff : Sometimes, the cutoff for the General category can be higher, but you may still apply as there might be specific reservation relaxations or fluctuations based on the number of applicants.

  • Interviews and GD : Even if you meet the minimum cutoff, interviews and group discussions are a mandatory part of the selection process. They assess your communication skills, leadership qualities, and overall fit for the program.

    Recommendations:

  1. Check the official cutoff for USMS for your specific year.

  2. Prepare for interviews : It is likely that you will have to appear for the next rounds if you qualify. Preparing well for the interview is important, as it can make a difference in your selection.


    I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

Top MBA colleges based on CAT, XAT, SNAP, and NMAT scores include some of India’s best institutions. For CAT, the IIMs (Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Calcutta) and FMS Delhi are highly regarded. XAT results in prestigious colleges like XLRI Jamshedpur and XIMB. SNAP is known for Symbiosis Institutes, such as SIBM Pune and SCMHRD. NMAT scores open doors to NMIMS Mumbai, SPJIMR Mumbai, and ISB Hyderabad. Each exam has unique eligibility requirements, and their cutoffs vary, so it's important to research the specific criteria and select based on your preferences and strengths.

Hello,

Here are important points regarding your query :-

  • Opportunity for candidates: IIM Kashipur might be inviting candidates for further consideration, regardless of initial CAT scores.
  • Broadening applicant pool: They may aim to review diverse profiles beyond just percentile.
  • Different criteria: Other factors like academic performance, work experience, and diversity may contribute to the decision.
  • Possibility of screening: The email could be a formality, and actual shortlisting will depend on various selection criteria.
  • No guarantee of shortlist: The invitation doesn’t ensure selection; many institutes offer preliminary applications before filtering through comprehensive evaluations.

Hope it helps !
