sample 1) 

If 
THE = 9

LIE = 7

FILE = 10

THIEF = ?

Solution methodology

One of our friend Pyush Shinde, came up with a simple way of answering this question :

Just count the number of horizontal and vertical lines and sum them, say for T =2, H =3, E =4

Now, THIEF = 2+3+1+4+3 = 13 !

simple isn't it, thanks to Shinde for sharing this with us,

16) In a classroom of 100 students, 40 students feel alert, while 60 students feel bored, if 50% of the alert students turn bored. After that, 50% of the bored students turn alert, what is the final number of students who feel alert and bored ?

a. 20 alert, 80 bored

b. No change - 40 alert, 60 bored

c. 60 alert, 40 bored (ans)

d. 50 alert, 50 bored

Explanation :

Initial step :
Alert = 40
Bored = 60

Step-1 :
50% of the alert students turns bored. so,
Alert = 40 - 40*0.5 = 20
Bored = 60 + 20(from alert) = 80

Step-2:
50% of the bored students turns alert
Bored = 80 (from previous step) - 80*0.5 = 40

Alert = 20 (from previous step) + 40 = 60

a. 841 X 1189

b. 420 X 594

c. 297 X 420

d. 594 X 841 (ans)

Remember the standard A4 paper size 210 X 297, being unfolded in two parts, that will give (210+210) X 297, which is the A3 paper size, now unfold again this A3 paper, 420 X (297+297) which turns out to be the size of A2 and so on. Continue unwrapping the paper in each steps to get sizes from A4 to A0, the below picture shows the same.

33) Which number comes in the place of question mark shown in the below image

Source : Indiabix blog 

Answer - 19

Explanation :

The series can be split into two parts (alternative numbers like 1st, 3rd, 5th ....and 2nd, 4th and 6th .........)

5 -> 11 (5+6) -> 17 (11+6) ............
7 -> 13 (7+6) -> 19 (13+6) ............  

34) Look at the series: 26, 24, 20, 18, 14, ...... what number should come next ?

Answer - 12

Explanation :

The series can be split into two parts just like in the before question (alternative numbers like 1st, 3rd, 5th ....and 2nd, 4th and 6th .........)

26 -> 20 (26 - 6) -> 14 (20 - 6) .......
24 -> 18 (24 - 6) -> 12 (18 - 6) ........

35) A wire can be bent in the form of a circle of radius 7cm. If it is bent in the form of a square, then its area will be ? (take PI = 22/7)

Area - 121 sqcm

Explanation :

Whether the wire is bent in circle or square, it doesn't matter, the length of the wire should be same. Now find the lenth of the wire if it was bent as a circle of radius 7cm, which will turn out to be the circumference (perimeter) - 2*PI*r = 2*PI*7

Now the same length forms the perimeter of the square which has all equal side - The perimeter of square is 4L =  2*PI*7

You will get length of the side L. Now the area of the suare is L*L (squared L)

Below shown picture applies to questions from 6 to 8

40)  _________ in drawing refers to applying heavy layers of pencil until the tooth of the paper is completely filled in, and a smooth, shiny surface is created. 
(this type of ques has less chances of appearing in UCEED)

a. Bistre Ink
b. Burnishing (ans)
c. Emphasis
d. Foreshortening

Explanation :

Bistre ink is a traditional ink made by boiling wood soot. The resulting ink color depends on the type of wood burnt to make the soot.

Burnishing is most commonly used in colored pencil drawing, to create a solid area of color. Burnished colored pencil has an almost painted finish. Waxy pencils or use of a colorless blender may create a transparent, jewel-like effect.

Emphasis/Focal Point is a principle, and the area of a work that first attracts the viewer's attention. This can be drawn in various ways.

Foreshortening is a method of drawing or painting an object or person so that it seems to go back into space. This method reproduces the portions a viewer actually sees.

41) Select synonyms for the word 'abode' (multiple options)

a. Dwelling (ans 1)
b. Ardent
c. Domicile (ans 2)
d. House (ans 3)
e. Associate

42) A 24 cm x 24 cm square metal plate needs to be fixed by a carpenter on to a wooden board. The carpenter uses nails all along the edges of the square such that there are 25 nails on each side of the square. Each nail is at the same distance from the neighboring nails. How many nails does the carpenter use?

a. 100
b. 98
c. 97
d. 96 (ans)

Explanation :

If you start from the bottom side of the square; no. of nails required = 25
right side of the square, no. of nails required = 25 - 1 = 24
Top side of the square, no. of nails required = 25 - 1 = 24
Left side of the square, this time both the ends are already having one nails - so nails required for this side = 25 - 2 = 23

Total nails = 25 + 24 + 24 + 23 = 96

(this type of ques has more chances of appearing in UCEED)

Answer :  28 balls

The solution goes like this

Let the no. of balls with Somu be "x"

and the no. of balls with Bhanu be "y"

so as per the first statement "if Bhanu gives four balls to Somu, then both will have equal" so

(x+4) = (y-4)

as per the second statement "if Somu gives four balls to Bhanu, then Bhanu will have double than Somu ". So

(y+4) = 2*(x-4)

now solve the above two equations for x and y.
