Re: Placement Paper Infosys

Below I am listing some questions from the Placement Paper of Infosys:
Q1). x^1/3 - x^1/9 = 60 . find the value of X. (3 marks)



Ans : write x^1/3 as x^1/9. x^1/9. x^1/9



Now x^1/9(x^2/9 - 1) =60

Now use trial and error method. Then x= 4^9



Q2). There are A, B, C, D, E, F students they speak one are more than one of english, itali, french, Spanish, portueges;

B, C speak English. But after D joins they have Spanish as the common language

Spanish is most common language

A, B, E have French as common language

C, E has Italian as common language

3 speak portueges

Out of all 1=all speaks 5 Langs, 1= speaks 4 Langs, 1= speaks 3

Langs, 1= speaks 2 Langs,1= speaks 1 language? (8 marks)



then 4 questions were asked based on above data like

1) A knows which languages? 4 options were given (one can easily get the answer from the above data and given options)





2) B knows how many languages

a) English, French

b)English, French Spanish

c)English, French, Spanish Italian

d)English, French, Spanish, Italian,Portugese



3) C can’t speak which language (4 options were given)



4) E can speak which languages (4 options were given)







Q3) same old cubes problem (8 marks)

A cube has its 6 faces painted red. It is cut by 6 straight lines into 27 smaller cubes.

Find how many smaller cubes are there having:

(i) 3 faces painted red. (ans : 8 )

(ii) 2faces painted red. (ans : 12 )



(iii) 1 face painted red. (ans : 6 )

(iv) 0 faces painted red (ans :1 )





Q4) There was a cycle race going on. 1/5th of the those in front of a person and 5/6th of those behind him gives the total number of participants. How many people took part in the race? (3 marks) Ans : 31 (5 marks)



Approach:

Let the total number of participants be X

So, [(x-1)/5 + 5(x-1)/6] = X







Q5) A man starts from XYZ city and drives a constant speed. After some time he sees a milestone with two digits written on it. after he drives for an hour, he sees another milestone with the same digits, but in reversed order. After another hour of journey, he sees another milestone with original digits but with a zero between them.

What was the speed of his car if milestones show kilometers? ( 6 marks)





Ans ) 45 kmph

Let speed of car be x kmph

Let at first he sees digits as ‘ab’…that is the value of number is: 10a+b

After traveling for one hour, he sees the number as ‘ba’…thus its value is 10b+a

After traveling another hour,he sees the number as ‘a0b’…thus value is 100a+b



Now,

10a+b+x=10b+a..which gives x=9b-9a

10b+a+x=100a+b..which gives x=99a-9b



Equating we get,

b=6a

since ‘a’ and ‘b’ are digits, a=1 and b=6 and thus x=45



Q6). Uncle Reuben and Aunt Cynthia came to town for shopping. Reuben bought a suit and hat for $15. Cynthia paid as much as for her hat as Reuben did for his suit then she spent the rest of their money for a new dress.

On the way home Cynthia called Reuben’s attention to the fact that his hat cost $1 more than her dress, then she added “if we had divided our hat money differently so that we bought different hats mine costing 1 and 1/2 time cost of yours” then we each would have spent the same amount of money.

In that case Uncle Reuben asked "how much would my hat have cost" (6 marks)

Ans). Uncles hat costs $9 (total money was $29)(not sure)check it





Q7). A five digit no whose third digit is one greater than the sum of the first two digits, and the third digit is double the fourth digit ,and fourth digit is double the fifth digit, and second digit is greater than first digit by 5. and if we multiply fourth and fifth digit we get third digit.

(5 marks)

Ans) 16842 take the no as “abcde” work it out using the given conditions (very easy)



Q8)ferie younger than jack and older than louise, louise older than edward and younger than jim (some names r given in that order) Who is youngest person?

Re: Placement Paper Infosys

Here I am providing the list of few questions of Infosys Placement entrance exam question paper which you are looking for .

1. there is a number which is slightly lesser than 500, which when divided by 3,4,5,7 leaves no remainder (3 marks)

solution:- the answer would be the lcm of 3,4,5,7 that is 420.
so the answer is 420

ans edward is the youngest

4. One day Harry and I set our watches together. None of us was aware that my watch was getting faster by 2 min per hour and Harry’s watch was getting slower by 1 min per hour. After sometime, we discovered that my watch was 1 hr ahead of Harry’s watch. Can you find out after how long we noticed this ? (3 Marks)

Ans: the differnce between the time would be 2min + 1min= 3min

so there is a diff of 3min for every 1 hour
therefore diff of 60 min would be 60*1hour/3min

there fore the answer is 20 hours

5. there is well of depth 30m and frog is at bottom of the well. he jumps 3m in one day and falls back 2m in the same day. how many days will it take for the frog to come out of the well?????

7. there were 5 athletes namely A,B,C,D,E who Are travelling in the plane after the olympics.
now there are 5 conditions given.( sory i don' remember).THE QUESTION WAS TO FIND WHO WON WHICH PLACE. but yes the anser is
answer is:: in this order
1) B
2) D
3) E
4) A
5) C

8. There is a peculiar island where a man always tells truth and a women never says two 2 consequtive truth or false statements that is if she says truth statement then she says false statement next and vice versa. a boy and girl also goes in the same way. one day i asked a child " what r u a boy or a girl" howver the child replied in their language that i dint understand

b: who ansered first mother or father?

Ans: a. kibi is a girl

b. mother answered first.

9. THIS IS A TOUGH ONE BUT I MANAGED TO GET THE ANSWER.
there are a number of cuffs and collar pieces which belong to freddy and charlie. there total is 30. freddy and charlie give all of tem to the laundry. freddy collects half the number of cuffs and one-third the number of collars and pays his share of 27 cents. 4cuffs costs 5collars.now tell how much did charlie pay for his share?

solution:: let the TOTAL number of the cuffs be X
let the TOTAL number of the COLLARS BE be 30-X

NOW FREDDY COLLECTS 1/2*X + 1/3*(30-X) = X/6 + 10
so charlie would collect 1/2*X + 2/3*(30-X) = -X/6 + 20


by inspection and trial and error we can see that X=12 ((( there is no other way)))

now putting X=12 in first equation we get 12 and puttin in eqn 2 we get 18
there fore freddy pays 27cents for 12 pieces
so charlie will pay ____ cents for his 18 pieces

THE ANSWER WILL BE 40.5 CENTS

10. Y X
Z Y I DON' REMEMBER THE FULL QN, BUT THE QN WAS TO FIND VALUES
X Z OF X Y Z. THE ANSWER IS X=9
----------------- Y=1
Y X X X Z Z=8
