Give me question paper for Tata Consultancy Services Aptitude examination in PDF file format ? Here I am giving you question paper for Tata Consultancy Services Aptitude examination in PDF file attached with it so you can get it easily. Paper : TCS Placement Paper Pattern (Only Aptitude) 1) If log 0.317=0.3332 and log 0.318=0.3364 then find log 0.319 ? Sol) log 0.317=0.3332 and log 0.318=0.3364, then log 0.319=log0.318+(log0.318-log0.317) = 0.3396 2) A box of 150 packets consists of 1kg packets and 2kg packets. Total weight of box is 264kg. How many 2kg packets are there ? Sol) x= 2 kg Packs y= 1 kg packs x + y = 150 .......... Eqn 1 2x + y = 264 .......... Eqn 2 Solve the Simultaneous equation; x = 114 so, y = 36 ANS : Number of 2 kg Packs = 114. 3) My flight takes of at 2am from a place at 18N 10E and landed 10 Hrs later at a place with coordinates 36N70W. What is the local time when my plane landed? a) 6:00 am b) 6:40am c) 7:40 d) 7:00 e) 8:00 Sol) The destination place is 80 degree west to the starting place. Hence the time difference between these two places is 5 hour 20 min. (=24hr*80/360). When the flight landed, the time at the starting place is 12 noon (2 AM + 10 hours). Hence, the time at the destination place is 12 noon - 5:20 hours = 6: 40 AM 4) A plane moves from 9?N40?E to 9?N40?W. If the plane starts at 10 am and takes 8 hours to reach the destination, find the local arrival time ? Sol) Since it is moving from east to west longitide we need to add both ie,40+40=80 multiply the ans by 4 =>80*4=320min convert this min to hours ie, 5hrs 33min It takes 8hrs totally . So 8-5hr 30 min=2hr 30min So the ans is 10am+2hr 30 min =>ans is 12:30 it will reach 5) The size of the bucket is N kb. The bucket fills at the rate of 0.1 kb per millisecond. A programmer sends a program to receiver. There it waits for 10 milliseconds. And response will be back to programmer in 20 milliseconds. How much time the program takes to get a response back to the programmer, after it is sent? Please tell me the answer with explanation. Sol) see it doesn't matter that wat the time is being taken to fill the bucket.after reaching program it waits there for 10ms and back to the programmer in 20 ms.then total time to get the response is 20ms +10 ms=30ms...it's so simple.... 6) A file is transferred from one location to another in 'buckets'. The size of the bucket is 10 kilobytes. Each bucket gets filled at the rate of 0.0001 kilobytes per millisecond. The transmission time from sender to receiver is 10 milliseconds per bucket. After the receipt of the bucket the receiver sends an acknowledgement that reaches sender in 100 milliseconds. Assuming no error during transmission, write a formula to calculate the time taken in seconds to successfully complete the transfer of a file of size N kilobytes. (n/1000)*(n/10)*10+(n/100)....as i hv calculated...~~!not 100% sure 7) A fisherman's day is rated as good if he catches 9 fishes, fair if 7 fishes and bad if 5 fishes. He catches 53 fishes in a week n had all good, fair n bad days in the week. So how many good, fair n bad days did the fisher man had in the week Ans:4 good, 1 fair n 2 bad days Sol) Go to river catch fish 4*9=36 7*1=7 2*5=10 36+7+10=53... take what is given 53 good days means --- 9 fishes so 53/9=4(remainder=17) if u assume 5 then there is no chance for bad days. fair days means ----- 7 fishes so remaining 17 --- 17/7=1(remainder=10) if u assume 2 then there is no chance for bad days. bad days means -------5 fishes so remaining 10---10/5=2days. Ans: 4 good, 1 fair, 2bad. ==== total 7 days. x+y+z=7--------- eq1 9*x+7*y+5*z=53 -------eq2 multiply eq 1 by 9, 9*x+9*y+9*z=35 -------------eq3 from eq2 and eq3 2*y+4*z=10-----eq4 since all x,y and z are integer i sud put a integer value of y such that z sud be integer in eq 4 .....and ther will be two value y=1 or 3 then z = 2 or 1 from eq 4 for first y=1,z=2 then from eq1 x= 4 so 9*4+1*7+2*5=53.... satisfied now for second y=3 z=1 then from eq1 x=3 so 9*3+3*7+1*5=53 ......satisfied so finally there are two solution of this question (x,y,z)=(4,1,2) and (3,3,1)... 8) Y catches 5 times more fishes than X. If total number of fishes caught by X and Y is 42, then number of fishes caught by X? Sol) Let no. of fish x catches=p no. caught by y =r r=5p. r+p=42 then p=7,r=35 9) Three companies are working independently and receiving the savings 20%, 30%, 40%. If the companies work combinely, what will be their net savings? suppose total income is 100 http:/ so amount x is getting is 80 y is 70 z =60 total=210 but total money is 300 300-210=90 so they are getting 90 rs less 90 is 30% of 300 so they r getting 30% discount 10) The ratio of incomes of C and D is 3:4.the ratio of their expenditures is 4:5. Find the ratio of their savings if the savings of C is one fourths of his income? Sol) incomes:3:4 expenditures:4:5 3x-4y=1/4(3x) 12x-16y=3x 9x=16y y=9x/16 (3x-4(9x/16))/((4x-5(9x/16))) ans:12/19 11) If G(0) = -1 G(1)= 1 and G(N)=G(N-1) - G(N-2) then what is the value of G(6)? Ans: -1 bcoz g(2)=g(1)-g(0)=1+1=2 g(3)=1 g(4)=-1 g(5)=-2 g(6)=-1 12) If A can copy 50 pages in 10 hours and A and B together can copy 70 pages in 10 hours, how much time does B takes to copy 26 pages? Sol) A can copy 50 pages in 10 hrs. A can copy 5 pages in 1hr.(50/10) now A & B can copy 70 pages in 10hrs. thus, B can copy 90 pages in 10 hrs.[eqn. is (50+x)/2=70, where x--> no. of pages B can copy in 10 hrs.] so, B can copy 9 pages in 1hr. therefore, to copy 26 pages B will need almost 3hrs. since in 3hrs B can copy 27 pages. 13) what's the answer for that : A, B and C are 8 bit no's. They are as follows: A -> 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 B -> 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 C -> 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 ( - =minus, u=union) Find ((A - C) u B) =? To find A-C, We will find 2's compliment of C and them add it with A, That will give us (A-C) 2's compliment of C=1's compliment of C+1 =11000101+1=11000110 A-C=11000101+11000110 =10001001 Now (A-C) U B is .OR. logic operation on (A-C) and B 10001001 .OR . 00110011 The answer is = 10111011, Whose decimal equivalent is 187. 14) One circular array is given(means memory allocation tales place in circular fashion) diamension(9X7) and sarting add. is 3000, What is the address of (2,3)........ Sol) it's a 9x7 int array so it reqiure a 126 bytes for storing.b'ze integer value need 2 byes of memory allocation. and starting add is 3000 so starting add of 2x3 will be 3012. 15) In a two-dimensional array, X (9, 7), with each element occupying 4 bytes of memory, with the address of the first element X (1, 1) is 3000, find the address of X (8, 5). Sol) initial x (1,1) = 3000 u hav to find from x(8,1)so u have x(1,1),x(1,2) ... x(7,7) = so u have totally 7 * 7 = 49 elementsu need to find for x(8,5) ? here we have 5 elements each element have 4 bytes : (49 + 5 -1) * 4 = 212 -----( -1 is to deduct the 1 element ) 3000 + 212 = 3212 16) Which of the following is power of 3 a) 2345 b) 9875 c) 6504 d) 9833 17) The size of a program is N. And the memory occupied by the program is given by M = square root of 100N. If the size of the program is increased by 1% then how much memory now occupied ? Sol) M=sqrt(100N) N is increased by 1% therefore new value of N=N + (N/100) =101N/100 M=sqrt(100 * (101N/100) ) Hence, we get M=sqrt(101 * N) 18) 1)SCOOTER --------- AUTOMOBILE--- A. PART OF 2.OXYGEN----------- WATER ------- B. A Type of 3.SHOP STAFF------- FITTERS------ C. NOT A TYPE OF 4. BUG -------------REPTILE------ D. A SUPERSET OF 1)B 2)A 3)D 4)C 19) A bus started from bustand at 8.00a m and after 30 min staying at destination, it returned back to the bustand. the destination is 27 miles from the bustand. the speed of the bus 50 percent fast speed. at what time it returns to the bustand this is the step by step solution: a bus cover 27 mile with 18 mph in =27/18= 1 hour 30 min. and it wait at stand =30 min. after this speed of return increase by 50% so 50%of 18 mph=9mph Total speed of returnig=18+9=27 Then in return it take 27/27=1 hour then total time in joureny=1+1:30+00:30 =3 hour so it will come at 8+3 hour=11 a.m. So Ans==11 a.m 20) In two dimensional array X(7,9) each element occupies 2 bytes of memory.If the address of first element X(1,1)is 1258 then what will be the address of the element X(5,8) ? Sol) Here, the address of first element x[1][1] is 1258 and also 2 byte of memory is given. now, we have to solve the address of element x[5][8], therefore, 1258+ 5*8*2 = 1258+80 = 1338 so the answer is 1338.

The following help (taken form Chetana group) will help you to present yourself as an leader ,energetic , social , serious about work etc !!!!! PSYCHOMETRY GROUPING The 150 questions are grouped depending on the nature of the question. I would like to clearly state that this version has no guarantee to be the correct version. Actually some 30/150 questions fall in to many groups and the line differentiating them is very thin. I have tried my best to group them. Talking about the groups- they are 11 in number. As I have mentioned- this is not the only correct version- but this can be one. So if u feel u can group them more finer u can subdivide them in to many more. I would advise u strictly to go through the whole set of groups and define urselvesthe key to psychometric test is to define who u are and then start looking in to deeply the questions. Each group represents a character or personality- u will decide which of the following attributes u would like to include in ur personality. GROUP 1 LEADERSHIP QUALITIES 2 3 28 39 53 73 103 128 GROUP 2 SOCIABLE NATURE 9 13 14 24 29 44 49 54 59 64 70 74 79 88 89 109 114 119 139 GROUP 3 BALANCED PSYCHE people who are balanced- not wavery in their moods etc.. etc… 10 15 16 35 40 41 45 52 55 60 65 75 80 95 105 130 145 148 GROUP 4 DAYDREAMERS 50 100 107 125 GROUP 5 PATIENCE AND ATTRIBUTE OF TAKING RID=GHT DECISIONS AFTER CAREFUL ANALYSIS 22 27 47 67 72 86 92 96 102 112 117 126 134 136 137 140 142 147 GROUP 6 EASYGOING AND CAREFREE NATURED PERSONALITIES 20 25 32 57 68 77 82 87 90 98 115 123 127 132 135 150 GROUP 7 ENTHUSIASTIC PERSONALITIES 17 42 66 78 85 99 110 141 144 GROUP 8 SLOW SLUGGISH DULL PERSONALITIES 11 21 30 31 36 46 51 56 61 76 81 91 106 116 101 146 GROUP 9 SERIOUS PERSONALITIES 12 26 37 62 97 111 120 124 143 GROUP 10 STRONG FULL OF ENERGY 121 122 131 GROUP 11 DIFFIDANT (shy, not able to ask even the most required thing….. etc..) 18 19 23 33 34 38 43(34) 48 58 63(34) 69 83 84(38) 93 104(34) 108 113 118(34) 129 133 149 read the following before proceeding the last group is bigger and within the group itself a small subgrouping is done- the no. in the bracket is the parent question to which the no outside the bracket belongs to- hope u understand strictly- this may not be 100 % right as many questions look very similar. So go thru and make alterations if u feel so. in each groups there r 2 kinds of questions- if u say yes to some and no to others u will land up at the same definition. So its ur common sense to understand the affirmative and negative tones of each question and answer accordingly- u shld know when to answer no and yes for each question in the same groupsome groups itself are opposite to each other and can be grouped together- but I have separated them on the basis of finer inferences eg:- serious persons cant be easy going type. if u say no to any question on serious group question u will land as an easygoing personality and vice versa- so they can be put under a single group- but some finer points prevent from doing so Last edited by Neelurk; April 17th, 2020 at 04:08 PM. |
