sir,i think answer of the below question is wrong,please provide the right answer,,,
A small storage tank is spherical in shape. What is the storage volume of tank ?
(I) The wall thickness of the tank is 1 cm.
(II) When an empty spherical tank is immersed in a large tank filled with water,20 L of water overflows from the large tank.
Firstly, Statement A describes a different triangle than Statement B, as diameter of incircle should be atleast lesser than half the diameter of semi circle, considering that the hypotenuse is the diameter of the circle.
Secondly, only the value of PR^2 + RQ^2 can be established.
QUS 6 : From statement 2, we can find the outer volume of the spherical tank as its volume will be equal to the amount of water displaced i.e 20 litre = 20 x 1000 cm3 and hecne its outer radius can be calculated.
From Statement 1 we can find the inner volume of spherical tank as its thickness is given and outer radius is calculated from statement 1.
question no 7 ans will be ‘c’.
let the number of student =x
then , weight of student =50x
stmt 1=sum of the heavy wt+least weight=100.
stmt 2=(50x-100)/8=50
after solving x=10.
for 7th question,
let the num of students be x
then total sum of weights=50x
heaviest and lightest member’s sum=100
50x-100/x-2=50(as avrg remains same)
all terms cancels out
hence D.
solutions for these questions. .??
Detailed solutions for Data Sufficiency Problem 6?
sir,i think answer of the below question is wrong,please provide the right answer,,,
A small storage tank is spherical in shape. What is the storage volume of tank ?
(I) The wall thickness of the tank is 1 cm.

i also agree with you. the material volume should be substracted to find out the volume of tank , from the 20 L of water dispressed,
Consider the problem graphically.
Firstly, Statement A describes a different triangle than Statement B, as diameter of incircle should be atleast lesser than half the diameter of semi circle, considering that the hypotenuse is the diameter of the circle.
Secondly, only the value of PR^2 + RQ^2 can be established.
QUS 6 : From statement 2, we can find the outer volume of the spherical tank as its volume will be equal to the amount of water displaced i.e 20 litre = 20 x 1000 cm3 and hecne its outer radius can be calculated.
From Statement 1 we can find the inner volume of spherical tank as its thickness is given and outer radius is calculated from statement 1.
So both the statement are required. Hence [ C ]
Answer of question 6 is wrong
It should be D
8th answer is completely wrong & i’m damn sure about that….
the answer of that question is (B)
I think answer of question no.3 is wrong. Can you please provide me solution of that question.
(1) X(X + 3) > 0
(X + 3) >0
X > – 3
and X cant be less than -3.
Not Sufficient.
(2) X(X – 3) < 0
(X – 3) <0
X < 3
and X cant be greater than 3.
Not Sufficient.
you are right @ harvanash , i agree
You have taken the opposite signs,
first statement is:
X(X+3)0}
X<0, X+3<0
X3, hence statement 1 is SUFFICIENT.
second statement is:
X(X-3)>0, {not X(X-3)0, X-3>0
X>3
which means X=4,5,6,…..infinity.
taking modulus, |X|>3 always, hence statement 2 is SUFFICIENT.
Answer should be (B)
question no 7 ans will be ‘c’.
let the number of student =x
then , weight of student =50x
stmt 1=sum of the heavy wt+least weight=100.
stmt 2=(50x-100)/8=50
after solving x=10.
for 7th question,
let the num of students be x
then total sum of weights=50x
heaviest and lightest member’s sum=100
50x-100/x-2=50(as avrg remains same)
all terms cancels out
hence D.
