SNAP 2024 Test 1 Question Paper (Memory Based Questions)

Quantitative, Data Interpretation and Data Sufficiency

Q 1. What is the angle formed between the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock at 5:55?

Solution:

The angle between the hour and minute hands is calculated using the formula:

$
\text { Angle }=\left|\left(30 H-\frac{11 M}{2}\right)\right|
$
Where:
- $H=$ Hour
- $M=$ Minutes

Here, $H=5$ and $M=55$.

$
\begin{gathered}
\text { Angle }=\left|\left(30 \times 5-\frac{11 \times 55}{2}\right)\right| \\
\text { Angle }=\left|\left(150-\frac{605}{2}\right)\right| \\
\text { Angle }=|(150-302.5)| \\
\text { Angle }=|-152.5| \\
\text { Angle }=152.5 \text { degrees }
\end{gathered}
$

If the angle exceeds $180^{\circ}$, we take the smaller angle between the hands:

$\text { Smaller Angle }=360^{\circ}-152.5^{\circ}=207.5^{\circ}$
Since $152.5^{\circ}$ is already smaller, it is the correct angle.

Q 2. In a group, the sum of three numbers x+y+z=850. If x is reduced by 100, y is reduced by 25, and z is reduced by 50, the ratio x: y becomes 1: 2, and the ratio y: z becomes 3: 2 (or 2: 3 ). Find the values of x, y, and z.

Q 3. Anurag's grandfather has an old cuckoo clock. It takes 5s for the cuckoo clock to chime 5 cuckoos. How long will it take to chime 10 cuckoos?

Solution:

$
\text { Time interval between two chimes }=\frac{\text { Total time }}{\text { Number of intervals }}=\frac{5 \mathrm{~s}}{5-1}=\frac{5}{4}=1.25 \mathrm{~s}
$

For 10 cuckoos, there are $10-1=9$ intervals. The total time required is:
Total time $=9 \times 1.25=11.25 \mathrm{~s}$

Q 4. Find the missing number: 6,13,20,27,…,678

Q 5. What is the sum of the numbers between 569 and 1024 which is divisible by 3 and 7.

Q 6. Two circles that meet externally have a radius of 6 cm. Another circle touches these two circles. Find the radius of the third circle.

Q 7. A person invested 34,500 in 5% stock at a 15% premium. Find his income.

• The exam followed the usual SNAP exam structure. A total of 60 questions were asked on topics such as General English Quantitative Aptitude, Data Interpretation and Data Sufficiency and Logical Reasoning.

• For every right answer, the candidates were awarded one mark but for each wrong answer, 1 mark was deducted. There were no marks awarded or deducted for unattempted answers.

• The SNAP 2023 results were announced on January 10, 2024.
