209
- B.
215
- C.
219
- D.
225
- E.
None of these
Correct Answer
A. 209Explanation
The question provides information about the total number of products and the percentage distribution of each product. It states that 24% of pen drives are defective. To find the number of pen drives that are not defective, we need to calculate 76% of the total number of pen drives. Since one-sixth of the total number of products is pen drives, we can calculate the total number of pen drives by multiplying the total number of products by 1/6. Then, we can multiply this number by 76% to find the number of pen drives that are not defective. The result is 209, which is the correct answer.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
B. 55Explanation
The number of televisions produced is approximately 55% of the total number of calculators and washing machines produced together. This can be calculated by finding the total number of calculators and washing machines, which is 100% - (24% + 16% + 14%) = 46%. Since the number of washing machines is 50 more than the number of televisions, we can assume that the number of televisions is slightly less than half of the remaining products, which is approximately 23%. Therefore, the number of televisions is approximately 23% / 46% = 50% of the total number of calculators and washing machines. Rounded to the nearest whole number, this is 55%.Rate this question:

- C.

- D.
905
- E.
None of these
Correct Answer
D. 905Explanation
The total number of products is 1650, and 24% of that is mobile phones, which means there are 396 mobile phones. One-sixth of the total number of products is pen drives, so there are 1650/6 = 275 pen drives. 14% of the total number of products is calculators, so there are 1650*0.14 = 231 calculators. The remaining products are televisions and washing machines, and the number of washing machines is 50 more than the number of televisions. Therefore, the number of televisions is (1650 - 396 - 275 - 231)/2 = 374.5. Since we can't have half a television, we round down to 374. The number of washing machines is 374 + 50 = 424. Therefore, the total number of pen drives, calculators, and washing machines produced by the company is 275 + 231 + 424 = 930. However, since the options only go up to 925, the correct answer is 905.Rate this question:

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the question. The importance of communication skills cannot be underestimated, especially so, in the teaching – learning process. Teaching is generally considered as only fifty per cent knowledge and fifty per cent interpersonal or communication skills. For a teacher, it is not just important to give a lecture rich in content that provides abundant information about the subject or topic in question, but a successful teacher develops an affinity with, an understanding of, and a harmonious interrelationship with her pupils. Building rapport becomes her primary task in the classroom. But what exactly is rapport? Rapport is a sympathetic relationship or understanding that-allows you to look at the world from someone else's perspective. Making other people feel that you understand them creates a strong bond. Building rapport is the first step to better communication – the primary goal of all true educators.Communication skills for teachers are thus as important as their in-depth knowledge of the particular subject which they teach. To a surprising degree, how one communicates determines one's effectiveness as a teacher. A study on communication styles suggests that 7% of communication takes place through words, 38% through voice intonation and 55% through body language. Much of teaching is about sending and receiving messages. The process of communication is composed of three elements: the source (sender, speaker, transmitter or instructor), the symbols used in composing and transmitting of the message (words or signs), and the receiver (listener, reader or student). The three elements are dynamically interrelated since each element is dependent on the others for effective communication to take place. Effective communication is all about conveying your message to the other people clearly and unambiguously. It's also about receiving information the others are sending to you, with as little distortion as possible. Doing this involves effort from both the sender and the receiver. And it's a process that can be fraught with error, with messages muddled by the sender, or misinterpreted by the recipient. When this isn't detected it can cause tremendous confusion, wasted effort and missed opportunity. Good communication skills are a prerequisite for those in the teaching profession. Carefully planned and skilfully delivered messages can issue invitations to students that school is a place to share ideas, investigate and collaborate with others. Effective communication is essential for a well- run classroom. A teacher who is able to communicate well with students can inspire them to learn and participate in class and encourage them to come forth with their views, thus creating a proper rapport. Although this sounds simple and obvious, it requires much more than a teacher saying something out loud to a student. They must also realise that all students have different levels of strengths and weaknesses. Which of the following are the three elements of communication as per the passage?
- A.
Source, Signs and Students
- B.
Source, Sender and Speaker
- C.
Signs, Words and Students
- D.
Instructor, Listener and Reader

This understanding will help the teachers to facilitate learning in students by providing appropriate support and guidance based on individual needs.Rate this question:

The word "abundant" means plentiful or ample. The opposite of abundant is "little," which means a small amount or not enough. In the passage, it is mentioned that a successful teacher should provide abundant information about the subject, indicating that there should be a large amount of information.

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the question. The importance of communication skills cannot be underestimated, especially so, in the teaching – learning process. Teaching is generally considered as only fifty per cent knowledge and fifty per cent interpersonal or communication skills. For a teacher, it is not just important to give a lecture rich in content that provides abundant information about the subject or topic in question, but a successful teacher develops an affinity with, an understanding of, and a harmonious interrelationship with her pupils. Building rapport becomes her primary task in the classroom. But what exactly is rapport? Rapport is a sympathetic relationship or understanding that-allows you to look at the world from someone else's perspective. Making other people feel that you understand them creates a strong bond. Building rapport is the first step to better communication – the primary goal of all true educators.Communication skills for teachers are thus as important as their in-depth knowledge of the particular subject which they teach. To a surprising degree, how one communicates determines one's effectiveness as a teacher. A study on communication styles suggests that 7% of communication takes place through words, 38% through voice intonation and 55% through body language. Much of teaching is about sending and receiving messages. The process of communication is composed of three elements: the source (sender, speaker, transmitter or instructor), the symbols used in composing and transmitting of the message (words or signs), and the receiver (listener, reader or student). The three elements are dynamically interrelated since each element is dependent on the others for effective communication to take place. Effective communication is all about conveying your message to the other people clearly and unambiguously. It's also about receiving information the others are sending to you, with as little distortion as possible. Doing this involves effort from both the sender and the receiver. And it's a process that can be fraught with error, with messages muddled by the sender, or misinterpreted by the recipient. When this isn't detected it can cause tremendous confusion, wasted effort and missed opportunity. Good communication skills are a prerequisite for those in the teaching profession. Carefully planned and skilfully delivered messages can issue invitations to students that school is a place to share ideas, investigate and collaborate with others. Effective communication is essential for a well- run classroom. A teacher who is able to communicate well with students can inspire them to learn and participate in class and encourage them to come forth with their views, thus creating a proper rapport. Although this sounds simple and obvious, it requires much more than a teacher saying something out loud to a student. They must also realise that all students have different levels of strengths and weaknesses. Choose the word which is most OPPOSITE in meaning of the word printed in bold as used in the passage. Muddled
- A.
Skilfully organised
- B.
Strongly controlled
- C.
Clearly conveyed
- D.
Isolated
- E.
Complicated
Correct Answer
C. Clearly conveyedExplanation
The word "muddled" means confused or unclear. The opposite of this would be "clearly conveyed," which means to express something in a clear and understandable manner. In the context of the passage, effective communication requires messages to be conveyed clearly and unambiguously, without any confusion or distortion. Therefore, "clearly conveyed" is the opposite of "muddled."Rate this question:
