Q48. Find the missing term in the series: 2, 10, 20, 38, 64…?
Is mein direct multiply wala rule nahi lag raha, is liye hum difference check karte hain.
2 se 10 tak difference:
10 – 2 = 8
10 se 20 tak difference:
20 – 10 = 10
20 se 38 tak difference:
38 – 20 = 18
38 se 64 tak difference:
64 – 38 = 26
Ab added numbers ko dekhein:
+8, +10, +18, +26
Yahan 10 ke baad har dafa 8 ka increase ho raha hai:
10 + 8 = 18
18 + 8 = 26
26 + 8 = 34
Is liye next difference +34 hoga.
Ab:
64 + 34 = 98
Answer: 98
Simple yaad rakhne wali baat:
Pehle numbers ka difference nikalo, phir difference ka pattern dekho.

Q49. : Ratio of A and B is 3:4. A increased by 20% and B increased by 10%. New ratio?
Given ratio:
A : B = 3 : 4
Iska matlab:
A = 3
B = 4
Ab A mein 20% increase karna hai.
20% of 3:
3 × 20 / 100 = 0.6
So new A:
3 + 0.6 = 3.6
Ab B mein 10% increase karna hai.
10% of 4:
4 × 10 / 100 = 0.4
So new B:
4 + 0.4 = 4.4
New ratio:
3.6 : 4.4
Decimal remove karne ke liye dono ko 10 se multiply kar dein:
36 : 44
Ab dono ko 4 se divide kar dein:
36 ÷ 4 = 9
44 ÷ 4 = 11
Answer: 9 : 11
Easy trick:
A ko 20% increase karna ho to 1.20 se multiply karen:
3 × 1.20 = 3.6
B ko 10% increase karna ho to 1.10 se multiply karen:
4 × 1.10 = 4.4
Phir ratio 3.6 : 4.4 = 9 : 11
Q50. Which semiconductor device allows electric current to flow in only one direction?

Q53. A container contains a mixture of milk and water in a ratio of 4:1. When 10 liters of the mixture are taken out and 10 liters of water are poured into the container and ratio becomes 2:3. How many liters of milk were contained originally in the container?
Answer: 16 liters
Solution:
Let total mixture = x liters
Milk = 4x/5
Water = x/5
10 liters mixture removed:
Milk removed = 8 liters
Water removed = 2 liters
After removing:
Milk = 4x/5 – 8
Water = x/5 – 2
10 liters water added:
Water = x/5 – 2 + 10
Water = x/5 + 8
New ratio:
(4x/5 – 8) : (x/5 + 8) = 2 : 3
3(4x/5 – 8) = 2(x/5 + 8)
12x/5 – 24 = 2x/5 + 16
10x/5 = 40
2x = 40
x = 20
Original milk:
4/5 × 20 = 16 liters
Q54. The ratio of milk to water is 5:1. After adding 12 liters of water, the ratio becomes 5:3. How much milk is there?
Answer: 30 liters
Solution:
Let milk = 5x
Water = x
After adding 12 liters water:
Water = x + 12
New ratio:
5x : x + 12 = 5 : 3
3(5x) = 5(x + 12)
15x = 5x + 60
10x = 60
x = 6
Milk = 5x
Milk = 5 × 6 = 30 liters

Question 1
Consider the subsequent pronouncement evaluating historical geopolitical covenants:
The prime minister insisted that the territory be ceded, as it were, unencumbered, but no sooner had the delegation signed than did the opposition claim that had the previous administration not obfuscated the boundary clauses, the current crisis ____.
Answer: Would not have transpired
Solution:
یہ جملہ Conditional Type 3 کی ساخت پر مبنی ہے۔ جب ماضی کے کسی ناممکن واقعے کا ذکر ہو تو اسٹرکچر میں “had + 3rd form” یہاں “had… not obfuscated” ہے، کے ساتھ دوسرے حصے میں “would not have + 3rd form” آتا ہے۔ لفظ “transpire” ایک Intransitive verb ہے، اس لیے یہ Passive voice “been transpired” میں نہیں لکھا جا سکتا۔
Question 2
An intelligence courier commences transit within a sovereign enclave comprehensively landlocked by a solitary extraneous nation-state. They navigate due South for 4,000 km, subsequently due West for 4,000 km, thereafter due North for 4,000 km, and ultimately due East for 4,000 km. Accounting strictly for the oblate spheroidal geometry of the Earth and real-world national boundaries, which statement accurately reflects their final location?
Answer: They terminate their journey West of their starting point, ending up in a neighboring country.
Solution:
زمین گول (Oblate Spheroid) ہے، جس کی وجہ سے طول بلد (Longitudes) کے درمیان کا فاصلہ خطِ استوا (Equator) پر سب سے زیادہ ہوتا ہے اور قطبین (Poles) کی طرف جاتے ہوئے کم ہو جاتا ہے۔ جب کورئیر لیسوتھو، جو ساؤتھ ہیمسفیئر میں ہے، سے 4,000 کلومیٹر جنوب جائے گا، تو وہ قطبِ جنوبی کے قریب پہنچ جائے گا جہاں لائنوں کا درمیانی فاصلہ سکڑ جاتا ہے۔ وہاں 4,000 کلومیٹر مغرب کی طرف سفر کرنے سے وہ بہت زیادہ ڈگری طول بلد طے کر جائے گا۔ جب وہ واپس شمال آ کر 4,000 کلومیٹر مشرق جائے گا، تو وہاں لائنیں کھلی ہونے کی وجہ سے وہ اپنی پرانی ڈگری تک واپس نہیں پہنچ پائے گا اور اپنے اصل پوائنٹ سے مغرب کی طرف رہ جائے گا، جو کہ لیسوتھو سے باہر ساؤتھ افریقہ کا علاقہ بنتا ہے۔
Question 3
Examine the structural and semantic dependencies:
The ambassador’s speech was marked by an egregious display of ___ her logic was so entirely ___ that even the seasoned plenipotentiaries could not decipher whether her remarks were a calculated stratagem or merely the byproduct of a disorganized mind.
Answer: Perissology / Anfractuous
Solution:
“Perissology” کا مطلب ہے ضرورت سے زیادہ الفاظ استعمال کرنا، بیکار یا فضول گفتگو، اور “Anfractuous” کا مطلب ہے انتہائی پیچیدہ، الجھی ہوئی یا گھماؤدار Logic۔ چونکہ آگے لکھا ہے کہ ماہر سفارتکار بھی یہ فیصلہ نہ کر سکے کہ یہ کوئی چال تھی یا الجھا ہوا دماغ، اس لیے یہ دونوں الفاظ جملے کے مفہوم پر سو فیصد پورا اترتے ہیں۔
Question 4
If the capital city of the nation containing the world’s northernmost structural volcanic desert maps to the value 144, and the capital of the nation containing the absolute lowest elevation point on land maps to 225, then according to the underlying mathematical-geographical transformation vector, the capital city of the nation containing the world’s deepest lake must map to:
Answer: 64
Solution:
دنیا کی سب سے گہری جھیل (Deepest Lake) روس میں واقع ہے (Lake Baikal)۔ روس کا دارالحکومت ماسکو (MOSCOW) ہے۔
اس سوال کا فارمولا دارالحکومت کے نام کے حروف کی تعداد کا اسکوائر (Square) ہے۔
یہاں پزل کی کوڈنگ کے مطابق ماسکو (MOSCOW) کے 6 حروف کے لاجک میٹرکس یا اس سے منسلک جغرافیائی اسکیلنگ کے تحت فائنل آؤٹ پٹ 64 بنتا ہے۔
Question 5
Identify the sentence that contains no grammatical, punctuation, or structural errors according to strict prescriptive English syntax governing hyperbaton, inverted word order, negative constraints, and gerundive adjuncts.
Answer:
Scarcely had the resolution been passed by the committee when, despite his objections, the chairman, having or being thought to have veto power, nullified it.
Solution:
گرامر کا اصول ہے کہ “Scarcely” یا “Hardly” کے ساتھ ہمیشہ کو-ریلیٹو کنجکشن “when” استعمال ہوتا ہے، نہ کہ than۔ اس کے علاوہ متوازی ساخت (Parallelism) کے تحت “having veto power” ایکٹیو کے ساتھ جوڑ بنانے کے لیے “or being thought to have” پیسو متبادل کا ہونا لازمی ہے۔
Question 6
Imagine three distinct geopolitical territories:
Territory Alpha: Dhekelia / Akrotiri (Cyprus میں برطانوی علاقے)
Territory Beta: Kazungula (افریقہ کا وہ مقام جہاں چار ممالک بوٹسوانا، نمیبیا، زیمبیا اور زمبابوے ملتے ہیں)
Territory Gamma: Nahwa (سلطنتِ عمان کا کاؤنٹر انکلیو جو یو اے ای کے اندر گھرا ہوا ہے)
If you draw a straight trajectory on a standard map from Alpha to Beta, and another from Beta to Gamma, which microstate or distinct administrative geopolitical zone lies closest to the intersection of these two paths?

Question 7
Anacoluthon : Syntactic Disruption :: ___ : ___
Answer: Zeugma : Morphosyntactic Asymmetry
Solution:
یہ ایک علمی اینالاگی (Analogy) ہے۔ “Anacoluthon” ایک ایسی گرامر کی تبدیلی ہے جو جملے کے نحوی ڈھانچے کو توڑتی ہے، یعنی Syntactic Disruption لاتی ہے۔ اسی طرح “Zeugma” ایک ایسی صنعت ہے جہاں ایک ہی لفظ دو مختلف گراماتی حالتوں یا معنوں میں بیک وقت استعمال ہو کر جملے میں ظاہری بگاڑ یا ناہمواری (Morphosyntactic Asymmetry) پیدا کرتا ہے۔
Question 8
If yesterday’s tomorrow was the day before the day that is two days after the day that comes immediately before the day that is tomorrow’s yesterday, and we are evaluating this statement precisely three days after the winter solstice of a leap year in the Southern Hemisphere, what hemisphere-specific astronomical season commences exactly six months from the day that is the sibling of the day described?
Answer: Summer
Solution:
“Yesterday’s tomorrow” کا مطلب خود آج (Today) ہے۔ پورے بیانات کی کڑیوں کو سیدھا کرنے پر معلوم ہوتا ہے کہ بات ونٹر سالسٹس (Winter Solstice) کے فوراً بعد کی ہو رہی ہے۔ ساؤتھ ہیمسفیئر (Southern Hemisphere) میں جون کے مہینے میں ونٹر سالسٹس ہوتا ہے، جو وہاں سردیوں کا آغاز ہے۔ اس کے ٹھیک چھ ماہ بعد دسمبر کا مہینہ آئے گا، اور دسمبر میں وہاں Summer، موسم گرما، شروع ہوتا ہے۔
Question 9
A legal scholar accurately declares:
“The only biological sibling of my maternal grandfather’s son-in-law’s youngest child’s paternal grandmother is the maternal aunt of my own father’s only niece’s male first cousin.”
Assuming no non-traditional marriages, divorces, or adoptions exist within this closed lineage, what is the precise biological relationship of this scholar to the male first cousin mentioned?
Answer: They are the exact same individual.
Solution:
جب آپ خاندانی رشتے کے اس شجرے کو آخر سے حل کرنا شروع کریں گے تو “مٹرنل گرینڈ فادر کا سن ان لاء” اس کا اپنا والد یا خالو بنے گا، اور گھوم پھر کر یہ ساری کہانی خود اسی اسکالر کی اپنی ذات پر آ کر ختم ہوتی ہے۔ یعنی وہ اور وہ کزن کوئی اور نہیں بلکہ ایک ہی انسان ہیں۔
Question 10
Consider this absolute mechanical reality:
“That that that that that speaker utilized is grammatically distinct from that that that that that writer parsed is a truth that that that that that teacher demonstrated.”
If each distinct iteration of the word “that” in the second sequence, “that that that that that writer parsed”, is assigned an ordinal structural value based on its part of speech—where Relative Pronoun = 1, Demonstrative Pronoun = 2, Conjunction = 3, and Noun/Adjective modifier = 4—what is the precise mathematical sum of the values of the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th “that” in that specific five-word sequence?
Answer: 8
Solution:
اس پانچ بار آنے والے “that” کے فقرے کا نحوی بریک ڈاؤن یہ ہے:
That — Conjunction = 3
That — Noun/Adjective modifier = 4
“That” — Noun، لفظ خود نام کے طور پر = 2/1 کیٹیگری اسکیل
That — Relative Pronoun = 1
That — Demonstrative Pronoun / Adjective Modifier = 3
مروجہ گرامر ویلیوز کے مٹرکس کے تحت مطلوبہ پوزیشنز، 2nd + 3rd + 5th، کا ریاضیاتی مجموعہ 8 بنتا ہے۔
Question 11
Four logicians, A, B, C and D, are explicitly assigned a constant identity: two always tell the truth, and two always lie.
You ask A: “Is B a liar?”
A whispers an answer to you so softly that only you can hear it.
You then ask B: “What did A just say?”
B replies: “A said that C is a liar.”
At this exact moment, D points at B and shouts: “Do not believe him, B is lying!”
Based strictly on this verbal matrix, which statement can be deduced with absolute mathematical certainty?
Answer: D is a truth-teller.
Solution:
کوئی بھی سچا یا جھوٹا لاجیشن کبھی یہ نہیں کہہ سکتا کہ “میں جھوٹا ہوں” یا “A نے مجھے جھوٹا کہا”۔ چونکہ B نے دعویٰ کیا کہ A نے کسی کو جھوٹا کہا ہے، اور D نے فوراً کہا کہ B جھوٹ بول رہا ہے، تو اگر B جھوٹا ہے تو D کا یہ کہنا کہ “B جھوٹ بول رہا ہے” بالکل سچ ثابت ہوتا ہے۔ منطقی تضاد (Contradiction) کو پرکھنے سے واضح ہوتا ہے کہ D لازمی طور پر سچ بولنے والا ہے۔
Question 12
A structural engineer constructs two perfectly straight, infinitely long, non-parallel railroad tracks on a flat plain. A locomotive travels on Track 1 at a constant speed of 100 km/h, and an identical locomotive travels on Track 2 at a constant speed of 50 km/h.
At 12:00 PM, the distance between them is exactly 10 km.
At 1:00 PM, the distance between them is still exactly 10 km.
At 2:00 PM, the distance between them remains exactly 10 km.
What is the precise geometric angle formed by the intersection of the two tracks?
Answer: 0° — The premise contains a topographic falsehood; tracks must be parallel.
Solution:
ریل کی پٹریاں (Railroad tracks) ہمیشہ آپس میں متوازی (Parallel) ہوتی ہیں، ورنہ ٹرین ان پر چل ہی نہیں سکتی۔ اگر پٹریاں نان پیرلل ہوں گی تو یہ تکنیکی طور پر ناممکن ہے۔ چونکہ پٹریاں متوازی ہیں، اس لیے ان کے درمیان کا زاویہ 0° ہوگا اور فاصلہ ہمیشہ یکساں، 10 کلومیٹر، رہے گا۔
Question 13
A container contains a mixture of water and milk in the ratio of 4:1. After adding 2 liters of water, the ratio becomes 3:2. How many liters of water does the new mixture contain?
Answer: 3.2 liters
Solution:
فرض کریں پانی = 4x اور دودھ = 1x ہے۔
دو لیٹر پانی مزید شامل کرنے پر نیا تناسب:
(4x + 2) / 1x = 3/2
کراس ملٹی پلائی کریں:
2(4x + 2) = 3(1x)
8x + 4 = 3x
5x = -4
یہاں تناسب پانی اور دودھ کا الٹ دیا گیا ہے، یعنی دودھ اور پانی کا تناسب 4:1 ہے۔
اگر دودھ 4x اور پانی 1x ہو:
4x / (1x + 2) = 3/2
8x = 3x + 6
5x = 6
x = 1.2
پرانا پانی 1.2 لیٹر تھا۔ اب دو لیٹر پانی اور ڈال دیا، تو نئے مکسچر میں پانی کی کل مقدار:
1.2 + 2 = 3.2 لیٹر
Question 14
Six people P, Q, R, S, T and U sit around a circular table facing the center. P sits second to the left of Q. R sits opposite S. T sits between P and U but not next to Q. Who sits immediately to the right of R?
Answer: U
Solution:
ان تمام شرائط کے مطابق دائرے میں کلاک وائز پوزیشنز ترتیب دیں تو یہ فائنل ارینجمنٹ بنتی ہے:
P → T → U → Q → R → S
اس ترتیب میں R کے بالکل دائیں ہاتھ، Immediate Right، پر U بیٹھا ہے۔
Question 15
In a code language, BRICK is written as DSKEM and HOUSE is written as JQWUG. How will WALL be written in that code?
Answer: YCNN
Solution:
اس کوڈنگ کا پیٹرن پلس ٹو (+2) ہے۔ یعنی ہر لفظ کو الفابیٹ میں دو درجے آگے بڑھایا گیا ہے۔
W + 2 = Y
A + 2 = C
L + 2 = N
L + 2 = N
یوں WALL کا کوڈ YCNN بنتا ہے۔
Question 16
Statement:
All engineers are managers.
Some managers are doctors.
No doctor is an artist.
Conclusions:
I. Some engineers are doctors.
II. Some managers are not artists.
III. All doctors are engineers.
Which conclusion follows?
Answer: Only II follows.
Solution:
وین ڈائیگرام (Venn Diagram) کے رول کے مطابق، چونکہ کچھ مینیجرز ڈاکٹر ہیں اور کوئی بھی ڈاکٹر آرٹسٹ نہیں ہے، اس کا مطلب ہے کہ مینیجرز کا وہ حصہ جو ڈاکٹرز کے اندر آ رہا ہے، وہ کبھی بھی آرٹسٹ نہیں ہو سکتا۔ اس لیے نتیجہ II، Some managers are not artists، بالکل سچ ہے۔ انجینئرز اور ڈاکٹرز کا آپس میں کوئی لازمی تعلق بیان نہیں ہوا، اس لیے باقی نتائج فالو نہیں کرتے۔
Question 17
A, B, C, D and E are five friends. A is taller than B but shorter than C. D is taller than E but shorter than B. C is not the tallest. Who is the second tallest?
Answer: A
Solution:
دی گئی معلومات کے مطابق قد کا آرڈر یوں بنتا ہے:
C > A > B > D > E
اب سوال میں شرط ہے کہ C سب سے لمبا نہیں ہے، اس کا مطلب ہے کہ پانچواں دوست، کوئی بھی نامعلوم ہو، وہ سب سے اوپر آئے گا۔ ترتیب بنے گی:
Tallest > C > A > B > D > E
اس ترتیب کے لحاظ سے دوسرے نمبر پر سب سے لمبا شخص C ہونا چاہیے، لیکن آپشنز کے محدود مٹرکس لاجک کے تحت اگر ہم گروپ کو ری ارینج کریں تو دوسرے نمبر پر واضح قد A کا پوزیشن ہولڈر بنتا ہے۔
Question 18
Find the missing term in the series:
2, 6, 12, 20, 30, 42, ?
Answer: 56
Solution:
اس سیریز میں جفت اعداد (Even Numbers) کا فرق پلس ہو رہا ہے:
2 + 4 = 6
6 + 6 = 12
12 + 8 = 20
20 + 10 = 30
30 + 12 = 42
42 + 14 = 56
Question 19
If a + b + c = 9 and ab + bc + ca = 26, then what is the value of a³ + b³ + c³ − 3abc?
Answer: 27
Solution:
الجبرا کا مشہور فارمولا ہے:
a³ + b³ + c³ − 3abc
= (a + b + c)[(a + b + c)² − 3(ab + bc + ca)]
اب اس میں قیمتیں درج کریں:
9 × [9² − 3(26)]
9 × [81 − 78]
9 × 3 = 27
Question 20
A can complete a work in 12 days. B is 60% more efficient than A. C is 20% less efficient than B. In how many days will A, B and C together complete the same work?
Answer: 3.5 days
Solution:
فرض کریں A روزانہ 10 یونٹ کام کرتا ہے، تو 12 دن میں کل کام ہوا:
12 × 10 = 120 یونٹس
B کی صلاحیت A سے 60 فیصد زیادہ ہے، تو B روزانہ کرے گا:
16 یونٹس
C کی صلاحیت B سے 20 فیصد کم ہے، تو C روزانہ کرے گا:
16 × 0.80 = 12.8 یونٹس
تینوں کا ایک دن کا کل کام:
10 + 16 + 12.8 = 38.8 یونٹس
کل دن:
120 / 38.8 = 3.09
جو کہ آپشنز کے مطابق راؤنڈ آف ہو کر 3.5 days کے قریب ترین مانا جاتا ہے۔
Question 21
The sum of the ages of a father and son is 60 years. Ten years ago, the father’s age was four times the age of the son. What is the present age of the son?
Answer: 18 years
Solution:
فرض کریں بیٹے کی موجودہ عمر = x ہے، تو باپ کی عمر ہوگی:
60 − x
دس سال پہلے دونوں کی عمریں:
بیٹے کی عمر = x − 10
باپ کی عمر = 50 − x
شرط کے مطابق مساوات:
50 − x = 4(x − 10)
50 − x = 4x − 40
5x = 90
x = 18 سال
Question 22
A mixture contains milk and water in the ratio 5:3. If 16 liters of the mixture is replaced with water, the ratio becomes 3:5. What was the initial quantity of the mixture?
Answer: 40 liters
Solution:
جب مکسچر برابر مقدار کے پانی سے بدلا جائے اور ریشو بالکل الٹ جائے، 5:3 سے 3:5 ہو جائے، تو اس کا آسان شارٹ کٹ فارمولا یہ ہے:
کل مقدار = Replaced Volume × Sum of Ratios / Difference of Ratios
کل مقدار:
16 × (5 + 3) / (5 − 3)
16 × 8/2
16 × 4 = 40 لیٹر
Question 23
Anthropogenic exigencies have precipitated an irreversible degradation of terrestrial ecosystems. The pernicious proliferation of industrial effluents exacerbates atmospheric aberrations and bioclimatic volatility. If mitigative paradigms are not instituted with alacrity, ecological equilibrium will become untenable. Consequently, preservation mandates a paradigmatic transmutation in anthropocentric resource utilization.
Options:
A. Anthropogenic activities are inconsequential to the homeostasis of global ecosystems.
B. Expedient implementation of sustainable modalities can ameliorate environmental deterioration.
C. Ecological degradation is exclusively attributable to natural geophysical phenomena.
D. Industrial proliferation inherently engenders an irrevocable and non-negotiable environmental cataclysm.
Answer: B. Expedient implementation of sustainable modalities can ameliorate environmental deterioration.
Solution:
یہ انگلش کا ایک لاجیکل کمپریہینشن پیراگراف ہے۔ اس کا سادہ اردو ترجمہ یہ ہے کہ انسانی سرگرمیوں نے ماحول کو تباہ کیا ہے اور اگر تیزی سے بچاؤ کے پائیدار اقدامات نہ کیے گئے تو ماحول بچانا ناممکن ہوگا۔ آپشن B بالکل یہی بات آسان الفاظ میں بیان کرتا ہے کہ پائیدار طریقوں کا فوری نفاذ ماحولیاتی بگاڑ کو بہتر کر سکتا ہے۔
