Hi Friends first of all thanks for Freshersworld.com, placementpaper.net, my classmates and Karthikeyan supporting me in getting placed in TCS.


Selection process:

1) Written test                          
2) Technical cum HR interview.

 

Written Test:


Written test consists of 35 questions 80 mins, previously it is 60 mins but now time they increased 20 mins. It is a online test.

Preparation: Up to my knowledge questions for written test is always from previous papers.so first of all solve below patterns mostly all these patterns and 19  November  2010, RVRJC College of Engineering, Guntur paper which is posted in freshersworld are repeated in written test and try previous papers given by various users in freshersworld.com and prepare quantitative aptitude by R.S Aggarwal.

 

Pattern 1:


1. (1/2) of a number is 3 more than the (1/6) of the same number?
a) 6 b)7 c)8 d)9

 

Solution:

Let the number be x,

((1/2)*x)=3+(1/6)*x,

Then solve x

2. (1/3) of a number is 3 more than the (1/6) of the same number?
a) 6 b)16 c)18 d)21

3. (1/3) of a number is 6 more than the (1/6) of the same number?
a) 6 b)18 c)36 d)24

4. (2/3) of a number is 4 more than the (1/6) of the same number?
a) 6 b)8 c)36 d)24

5. (1/3) of a number is 5 more than the (1/6) of the same number?
a) 6 b)36 c)30 d)72

Pattern 2:


1. There are two water tanks A and B, A is much smaller than B. While water fills at the rate of 1 liter every hour in A, it gets filled up like, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160 in tank B. (At the end of first hour, B has 10 liters, second hour it has 20 liters and so on). If tank B is 1/32 filled of the 21 hours, what is total duration of hours required to fill it completely?
a) 26 B)25 c)5 d)27

 

Solution: for every hour water in tank in B is doubled,

Let the duration to fill the tank B is x hours.

x/32 part of water in tank of B is filled in 21 hours,

Next hour it is doubled so,

2*(x/32) part  i.e (x/16) part  is filled in 22 hours,

Similarly (x/8)th part in 23 hours,(x/4)th part is filled in 24 hours,

(x/2)th part is filled in 25 hours, (x)th part is filled in 26 hours

So answer is 26 hours.

 

2. There are two pipes A and B. If A filled 10 liters in an hour, B can fill 20 liters in same time. Likewise B can fill 10, 20, 40, 80, 160. If B filled in 1/16 of a tank in 3 hours, how much time will it take to fill the tank completely?
a) 9 B) 8 c) 7 d) 6

3. There are two water tanks A and B, A is much smaller than B. While water fills at the rate of 1 liter every hour in A, it gets filled up like, 10, 20, 40,80, 160…..in tank B. 1/8 th of the tank B is filled in 22 hours. What is the time to fill the tank fully?
a) 26 B) 25 c) 5 d) 27

4. A tank is filled with water. In first hour 10 liters, second hours 20 liters, and third hour 40 liters and so on. If time taken to fill ¼ of the tank if 5 hours. What is the time taken to fill up the tank?
a) 5 B) 8 c) 7 d) 12.5

Pattern 3:


1. 6 persons standing in queue with different age group, after two years their average age will be 43 and seventh person joined with them. Hence the current average age has become 45. Find the age of seventh person?
a) 43 b) 69 c) 52 d) 31

 

Solution:

Total age of 6 persons is x hours,after two years total age of 6 persons is x+12

Average age of 6 persons is after two years is 43

So (x+12)/6=43,then solve x,

After 7th person is added then (x+7th person age)/7=45

So we will get 7th person age easily

Pattern 4:
1. In the reading room of a library, there are 23 reading spots. Each reading spot consists of a round table with 9 chairs placed around it. There are some readers such that in each occupied reading spot there are different numbers of readers. If in all there are 36 readers, how many reading spots do not have even a single reader?
a) 8 b) none c) 16 d) 15

Solution: 23 reading spots, Each reading spot consists of 9 chairs placed around it so There are some readers such that in each occupied reading spot there are different numbers of readers.

For each table different no of persons are sat,so for first table 1 person is sit,2nd table 2 persons are sit 36

readers means(1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8 so 8 tables are filled so 23-8=15 reading spots does not have single reader.

1. Simple question but big one on average age.sth like a, b, c weighted separately 1st a, b, c ,then a& b, then b & c ,then c & a at last abc, the last weight was 167,then what will be the average weight of the 7 reading?
a) 95 b) 95.428 c) 95.45 d) 94

Solution: Last weight abc is 167i.e three persons weight is 167 .in first 6 combinations a,b,c,ab,bc,ac i.e a checked weight for 3 times totally like that band c also so total weight in all 7 combinations is (4*167)

Average is (668/7)=95.42

Pattern 13:


1. A toy train produces 10 different sounds when it moves around a circular toy track of radius 5 m at 10 m per min. However, the toy train is defective and it now produces only 2 different tunes at random. What are the odds that the train produces for consecutive music tones of the same type?
a) 1 in 16 B) 1 in 4 c) 1 in 8 d) 1 in 32

 

Solution: Initially it produces 10 sounds and the defect came and now it produces only 2 different sounds and consecutively so there are totally 2 sounds and we have to select on sound and the probability is ½ and it produces the same sound concecutively for 2 times so the probability becomes ½*1/2  ie ¼


2. A car manufacturer produces only red and blue models which come out of the final testing area at random. What are the odds that five consecutive cars of same color will come through the test area at any one time?
a) 1 in 16 b) 1 in 125 c) 1 in 32 d) 1 in 25

Pattern 15:


1. A triangle is made from a rope. The sides of the triangle are 25 cm, 11 cm and 31 cm. What will be the area of the square made from the same rope?
a) 280.5625 b) 240.5625 c) 280.125 d) 240

 

Solution:add all sides 25+11+31 to get rope length rope length =67,rope is made in to as square

So side of square is 67/4=16.75 and so area is 16.75*16.75=280.5625


2. A triangle is made from a rope. The sides of the triangle are 21 cm, 24 cm and 28 cm. What will be the area of the square made from the same rope?
a) 280.5625 b) 333.0625 c) 333.0125 d) 400

Pattern 19:

1. Usha bought a linen cloth and rope to build a tent. If the rope is 153 m long and it is to be cut into pieces of 1m length, then how many cuts are to be made to cut the ropes into 153 pieces?
a)153 b)152 c)154 d)155
 
Solution:to make it 153 pieces we have to cut 152 times so obviously after last cut we got 153rd piece

a) 584 b) 580 c) 730 d) 725

Solution: 146 pieces means 145 cuts so for each cut it takes 4 seconds means total time 145*4=580
