MAH MBA CET 6th April 2026 Memory-Based Questions
The MAH MBA CET 6th April 2026 memory-based questions are shared below based on student feedback. These questions help candidates understand the types of questions asked, the difficulty level, and important topics.
Q1. Two trains run simultaneously, one of which is travelling from place $C$ to $B$ and the other is travelling from place B to C. After meeting, the two trains arrive at their destinations in 4 hours and 9 hours respectively. Find the ratio of their speeds.
(A) $4: 3$
(B) $4: 5$
(C) $3: 2$
(D) $3: 4$
(E) $2: 3$
Solution:
Let the speeds of the two trains be $S_1$ and $S_2$
Key concept:
After meeting, the time taken to reach the destination is inversely proportional to their speeds
So,
$
\frac{S_1}{S_2}=\sqrt{\frac{\text { Time taken by } 2 \text { nd }}{\text { Time taken by 1st }}}
$
Given times: 4 hours and 9 hours
$
\frac{S_1}{S_2}=\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}}=\frac{3}{2}
$
So, ratio $=3: 2$
Correct Answer. (C)
Q2. If the first 3 letters of the word 'SESQUIPEDALIAN' are reversed, the next 3 are also reversed, and the rest are written in alphabetical order, how many letters will not retain their original position?
(A) 8
(B) 9
(C) 10
(D) 11
(E) 12
Solution:
Word: SESQUIPEDALIAN
First $3 \rightarrow$ SES → reverse → SES
Next $3 \rightarrow$ QUI → reverse → IUQ
Remaining → PEDALIAN → arrange alphabetically → AADEILNP
New word: SESIUQAADEILNP
Original:
SESQUIPEDALIAN
New. SESIUQAADEILNP
Now count positions where letters are the same:
Positions same → 1, 2, 3, 5, 9
Total same = 5
Total letters $=14$
Not same $=14-5=9$
Correct Answer: (B)
Q3. Find the number of triangles in the given figure.
![]()
(A) 18
(B) 20
(C) 24
(D) 27
(E) 30
Solution:
This is a complex figure with overlapping triangles and diagonals.
Best approach:
- Count small triangles
- Count medium triangles (combining 2 small ones)
- Count large triangles
- Include tilted/inverted triangles
After careful counting:
Total triangles = 24
Correct Answer: (C)

Q5. How many meaningful words can be formed using the 1st and the 5th letters of the word BURDEN and the 2 nd and the 8th letters of the word ANATHEMA?
(A) 0
(B) 1
(C) 2
(D) 3
(E) 4
Solution:
BURDEN → 1st = B, 5th = E
ANATHEMA $\rightarrow 2 \mathrm{nd}=\mathrm{N}, 8$ th $=\mathrm{M}$
Letters obtained: B, E, N, M
Possible meaningful words:
- BEND
- BEN
Total meaningful words = 2
Correct Answer: (C)
Q6. A train of length 100 meters is moving at a speed of $78 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{hr}$. It completely crosses a tunnel in 1 minute. What is the length of the tunnel?
Solution:
Speed $=78 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{hr}=1300 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{min}$
Distance covered in 1 minute = 1300 m
Total distance $=$ Train length + Tunnel length
$1300=100+$ Tunnel length
Tunnel length $=1200 \mathrm{~m}$
Q7. Identify the odd one out from the following:
(a) Dagger, Sword, Knife, Hammer
(b) Kill, Murder, Kidnap, Stab
Solution:
(a) Dagger, Sword, Knife, Hammer
Odd one: Hammer (not a sharp weapon)
(b) Kill, Murder, Kidnap, Stab
Odd one: Kidnap (does not directly involve killing)
Q8. If the time is 7:00 initially, what will be the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand at 11:30?
Solution:
Formula: $|30 H-5.5 M|$
At 11:30:
$
\begin{aligned}
& =|30 \times 11-5.5 \times 30| \\
& =|330-165|=165^{\circ}
\end{aligned}
$
Q9. 15th August 1998 fell on which day of the week?
Solution:
15 August $1947 \rightarrow$ Friday
From 1947 to 1998 = 51 years
Odd days $=12 \times 2+39 \times 1=63$
$63 \bmod 7=0$
Same day → Friday
Q 10. A rectangular field is to be fenced on three sides, leaving one side measuring 20 feet uncovered by fencing. If the area of the field is 680 sq ft, how many feet of fencing is required?
Solution:
Let the length of the field (uncovered side) = 20 ft
Let the breadth $=b$
Given area:
$
\begin{aligned}
& 20 \times b=680 \\
& b=34
\end{aligned}
$
Fencing is required on 3 sides:
Two breadths + one length
$
=2 b+20=2(34)+20=68+20=88
$
Correct Answer: (d) 88
Q11. Rearrange the following parts to form a coherent paragraph... Which of the following will be the third statement?
Solution:
Start with the main subject → b (Sahara sits atop African Shield)
Then explain it ⟶ d (composition of rocks)
Then cause → f (because of stability...)
Then continuation → e (formations remained unaltered)
Then detail → a (covered by deposits)
Finally conclusion $\rightarrow c$ (aquifers identified)
Correct order: $\mathrm{b} \rightarrow \mathrm{d} \rightarrow \mathrm{f} \rightarrow \mathrm{e} \rightarrow \mathrm{a} \rightarrow \mathrm{c}$
Third statement $=\mathrm{f}$
Answer: (e)
Q 12. Find the missing number in the square:
![]()
(a) 15
(b) 16
(c) 17
(d) 18
(e) 19
Solution:
This type of question generally follows a pattern like row/column operations (addition, subtraction, or multiplication).
By checking consistent relationships across rows/columns in the figure, the missing value satisfies the pattern.
Final value $=17$
Answer: (c)
Q 13. Which letter will be on the side opposite to $A$?
