DIRECTIONS for the question: Answer the following question as per the best of your
judgement.

A train approaches a tunnel AB. Inside the tunnel a cat located at a point that is 3/8
of the distance AB measured from the entrance A. When the train whistles the cat runs.
If the cat moves to the entrance of the tunnel A, the train catches the cat exactly at
the entrance. If the cat moves towards the exit B, the train catches the cat exactly at
the exit. The speed of the train is greater than the speed of the cat by what order?
3:1
4:1
5:1
None of these
Explanation
Let the speed of cat = 1 kmph and let the total distance = 8 km.
So cat is at 3 km from entrance and 5 km from exit.
In the first case, when the train and the cat are meeting at the entrance, we say that cat
is covering 3 kms in 3 hrs.
In the 2nd case, cat is covering 5 kms in 5 hrs as it catches the train at the exit which
further means that the train has covered (3 + 5) i.e 8 kms in (5 – 3) i.e 2 hrs. So speed of
train is 4 kmph. Hence the ratio of their speeds is 4 : 1. Hence speed of the train is
greater by 3 : 1 than that of the cat.

Correct answer is: A

The average price of 10 pens is Rs. 12 while the average price of 8 of these pens is Rs.
11.75. Of the remaining two pens, if the price of one pen is 60% more than the price of
the other, what is the price of each of these two pens ?
Rs. 12, Rs.14
Rs. 5, Rs. 7.50
Rs. 8, Rs. 12
Rs. 10, Rs. 16
Explanation Average price of 10 pens = 12
Total price of 10 pens = 12×10 = 120

Average price of 8 pens = 11.75


Total price of 8 pens = 11.75×8=94

Total price of 2 pens = 120-94 = 26

Let price of first pen = P


Price of other pen = 60% more than first pen = 1.6P

P +1.6P = 26
2.6P = 26
P = 10
Price of first pen = Rs. 10
Price of other pen = Rs. 16

One line will have one vertex and the other line will have two vertices.
If the line with 10 points has the single vertex, there will be 10 ways to choose it. There
will be 5C2 = 10 possible combinations for the two vertices on the line with 5 points. 10 x
10 = 100 triangles.
If the line with 5 points has the single vertex, there will be 5 ways to choose it. There will
be 10C2 = 45 possible combinations for the two vertices on the line with 10 points. 5 x 45
= 225 triangles.

Out of the total 90,000 votes cast in an election between two candidates, the first
candidate got a total of 35% of the total valid votes. If 20% votes were declared invalid,
then find the number of votes that the second candidate got.
41500
40500
39500
46800
Explanation
Consider the total votes cast = 100%
Now invalid votes = 20%
So left votes = 100 – 20 = 80%
First candidate got = 35% of 80% = 28%.
So second candidate got = 80 – 28 = 52% of the total votes i.e. 52% of 90,000 = 46,800.

respectively, at what time will the tank be filled?
6.00 A.M
7.00 A.M
11.00 A.M
12 Noon
Explanation
Let total work be 24 units
Pipe A’s one hour work=24/8 =3 units
Pipe B’s one hour work= 24/12 =2 units
Pipe C’s one hour work= 24/6 = 4 units
Till 7 pm, work done by pipe A= 6 units
Till 7 pm, work done by pipe B= 2 units
Till 7 pm, total work done = 8 units
Work done by A+B+C in one hour=3+2-4=1 unit
Thus more time needed = remaining work/work done in one hour= (24-8)/1
=16 hours, i.e. at 11a.m.

option.

Prem invested a certain sum of money in a simple interest bond whose value grew to
Rs. 300 at the end of 3 years and to Rs. 400 at the end of another 5 years. What was the
rate of interest in which he invested his sum?
12 %
12.5 %
6.67 %
8.33 %
Explanation
Since, in 5 years the amount grew from Rs. 300 to Rs. 400.
So simple interest added in 5 years = Rs. 400 - Rs. 300 = Rs. 100
Hence, the interest for 1 year = Rs. 100/5 = Rs. 20
=> The interest for 3 years = Rs. 60
We know, Amount = Principal + Simple Interest
=> Principal = Amount - Simple Interest
=> Principal = Rs 300 - Rs 60 = Rs. 240
Also, SI = (P x R x T)/100
=> for one year, 20 = (240 x R x 1)/100
=> rate of interest = 100/12 = 8.33%
Hence, option D is the correct answer.

Correct answer is: D


Question No: 27

Out of these, there are 3 multiples of 12 i.e. 60, 120 and 180.
So there are 3 numbers from 1 to 200 which are divisble by 2, 3, 5 but not by 12

So option C.

Correct answer is: C


Question No: 28

DIRECTIONS for the question: Solve the following question and mark the best possible

A person invested some amount at the rate of 12 % simple interest and a certain
amount at the rate of 10 % simple interest. He received yearly interest of Rs. 130. But if
he had interchanged the amounts invested, he would have received Rs. 4 more as
interest. How much did he invest at 12 % simple interest?
Rs. 700
Rs. 500
Rs. 800
Rs. 400

Explanation
Let the money be invested at 12% be Rs. x and that be invested at 10% be Rs. y.
So, 12% of x + 10% of y = 130
=> 12x/100 + 10y/100 = 130
=> 6x + 5y = 6500 ------ (i)
and 10% of x + 12% of y = 134
=> 10x/100 + 12y/100 = 134
=> 5x + 6y = 6700 ------ (ii)
Multiplying (i) by 6 and (ii) by 5 and then subtracting, we get
x = 500
Hence, he invested Rs. 500 at 12 % simple interest.
Option B is the correct answer.

Fifty college teachers are surveyed as to their possession of colour TV, VCR and tape
recorder. Of them, 22 own colour TV, 15 own VCR and 14 own tape recorders. Nine of
these college teachers own exactly two items out of colour TV, VCR and tape recorder;
and, one college teacher owns all three. How many of the 50 teachers own none of the
three, colour TV, VCR or tape recorder?
4
9
10
5
Explanation
We know that x + y + z = T and x + 2y + 3z = RT, where
x = number of members belonging to exactly 1 set,
y = number of members belonging to exactly 2 sets = 9,
z = number of members belonging to exactly 3 sets = 1,
T = Total number of members,
RT = Repeated total of all the members = (22+15+14) = 51.

Thus we have two equations and two unknowns.


Solving this we get T = 40.
In other words, the number of teachers owing at least 1 out of the three items = 40.
Hence the number of teachers owing none = 50 - 40 = 10.

Correct answer is: C

the right of Alto which is owned by Ritika. Priya is to the left of Ritz. Ritika owns a scooter.
Which of the following gives the complete list of the vehicles owned by Nitika?
Yamaha, Kawasaki, Priya and Bajaj
Yamaha, Ritz, Kawasaki and Zen
Yamaha and Ritz
None of these
Explanation
There are seven vehicles of three types and three owners. No two types of vehicles are
same in number and no two among the owners have the same number of vehicles.
Hence the number of vehicles of each type is 4, 2 and 1 and the number of vehicles with
each of them is 4, 2 and 1 in any order.
As, no two vehicles owned by the same person are adjacent to each other, the vehicles
of the person who own four vehicles will be at the first, third, fifth and seventh positions.
As, the vehicle owned by Nitika is at one end, Nitika owned four vehicles.
Now, as Ritz, the bike is adjacent to a scooter and a car and as these three are owned by
different persons, the vehicle at the middle, i.e., Ritz must be one of the vehicles owned
by Nitika, as his vehicles occupy alternate positions. So, Ritz must be the third or the fifth
vehicle from the left end.
As Kawasaki is two places away to the right of Bajaj, and neither Kawasaki nor Bajaj is
parked at any of the ends of the row, these two vehicles are not owned by Nitika.
∴ These two vehicles are parked at 2nd and 4th or 4th and 6th positions respectively.
Again, it is given that Alto is owned by Ritika.
Hence, the vehicles owned by Nitika are - Priya, Ritz, Zen and Yamaha.
As Kawasaki and Bajaj are owned by the same person, that person must be Ankita, we
know Ritika is the owner of Alto.
As each of Ankita's vehicles i.e., Bajaj and Kawasaki is to the immediate left of a scooter,
Ritz must be parked at the third position and Kawasaki and Bajaj are parked at 6 th and
4th positions respectively from the left.
As Priya is to the left of Ritz, Priya must be parked at the first position from the left.
∴Yamaha and Zen are parked at the 7th and 5th positions respectively from the left.∴ The
vehicles parked at the 5th and 7th positions from the left must be scooters. So, Zen and
Yamaha are scooters. Also, Alto, owned by Ritika must be parked at the second from the
left.
⇒ Bajaj must be a car, since Ritz is adjacent a scooter and a car.
∴ There are more than two scooters, which implies there are four scooters. As, no person
owns a particular type of vehicle more than two, the other scooter must be owned by
Ankita. Priya cannot be a bike, in that case, both the bikes owned by Nitika, which is not
possible. Hence, Priya is a car. The final arrangement is as follows.
Priya Alto Ritz Bajaj Zen KawasakiYamaha
Car ScooterBike Car ScooterScooter Scooter
NitikaRitika NitikaAnkitaNitika Ankita Nitika

The complete list is – Priya, Ritz, Zen and Yamaha.

Eight students- A through H- are sitting around a circular table. Each of them studies
exactly one subject among Maths, Physics and Chemistry. Each subject is studied by at
least two students and no two students who study the same subject sit either adjacent
to or opposite each other.

Further, it is known that


(i) A does not study Maths and G, who studies Physics, is to the right of C.
(ii) B is opposite C, who studies Maths, and adjacent to D,who also studies Maths.
(iii) E is to right of A and F is to the right of B.

Which of the following statements is definitely true?


If B studies Physics, then A studies Chemistry.

If F studies Maths, then B studies Physics.

If F studies Chemistry, then H studies Physics.

If B studies Chemistry, then F studies Maths.


Explanation
From conditions (i) & (ii) the places of the persons can be fixed as follows

As F is to the right of B, D should be towards the left of B.

A is to the right of F and H is between D and G.


As, D studies Maths and G studies Physics, H must study Chemistry.

As A is opposite to H, he cannot study Chemistry

A studies Physics E studies Chemistry


Thus the final arrangement is as follows
Statement A and C cannot be true as A studies Physics and H studies chemistry.
If F studies Maths, B can study either Physics or Chemistry. Hence statement (B) need not
be definitely true.
If B studies chemistry, then F must study Maths. Hence option (D) is definitely
true. Choice (D).

In a parking lot, there are seven vehicles parked in a row. Each of the vehicles is a car or
a scooter or a bike. Each of the vehicles is owned by exactly one person among Ankita,
Nitika and Ritika. Each person owns at least one vehicle. There is at least one vehicle of
each type. No two of them own the same number of vehicles. For any two types of
vehicles, the total number is different. All the vehicles of a particular type (if more than
1) is not owned by the same person and no one owned more than two vehicles of any
one type. The names of the seven vehicles are - Kawasaki, Yamaha, Zen, Bajaj, Alto, Ritz
and Priya. All the vehicles of a particular type are not parked together. No two vehicles
owned by the same person are adjacent to each other. Each of Ankita's vehicles is to the
immediate left of a scooter. Yamaha is owned by Nitika and is parked at one end of the
row. Kawasaki is two places away to the right of Bajaj and these two are owned by the
same person. Neither Kawasaki nor Bajaj is at any end of the row. Ritz, a bike, is adjacent
to a scooter and a car and each of these three is owned by a different person. Zen is to
the right of Alto which is owned by Ritika. Priya is to the left of Ritz. Ritika owns a scooter.
Which of the following gives the complete list of the cars?
Priya and Yamaha
Bajaj, Ritz, Yamaha and Kawasaki
Alto, Priya and Zen
Priya and Bajaj
Explanation
There are seven vehicles of three types and three owners. No two types of vehicles are
same in number and no two among the owners have the same number of vehicles.
Hence the number of vehicles of each type is 4, 2 and 1 and the number of vehicles with
each of them is 4, 2 and 1 in any order.
As, no two vehicles owned by the same person are adjacent to each other, the vehicles
of the person who own four vehicles will be at the first, third, fifth and seventh positions.
As, the vehicle owned by Nitika is at one end, Nitika owned four vehicles.
Now, as Ritz, the bike is adjacent to a scooter and a car and as these three are owned by
different persons, the vehicle at the middle, i.e., Ritz must be one of the vehicles owned
by Nitika, as his vehicles occupy alternate positions. So, Ritz must be the third or the fifth
vehicle from the left end.
As Kawasaki is two places away to the right of Bajaj, and neither Kawasaki nor Bajaj is
parked at any of the ends of the row, these two vehicles are not owned by Nitika.
∴ These two vehicles are parked at 2nd and 4th or 4th and 6th positions respectively.
Again, it is given that Alto is owned by Ritika.
Hence, the vehicles owned by Nitika are - Priya, Ritz, Zen and Yamaha.
As Kawasaki and Bajaj are owned by the same person, that person must be Ankita, we
know Ritika is the owner of Alto.
As each of Ankita's vehicles i.e., Bajaj and Kawasaki is to the immediate left of a scooter,
Ritz must be parked at the third position and Kawasaki and Bajaj are parked at 6 th and
4th positions respectively from the left.
As Priya is to the left of Ritz, Priya must be parked at the first position from the left.
∴Yamaha and Zen are parked at the 7th and 5th positions respectively from the left.∴ The
vehicles parked at the 5th and 7th positions from the left must be scooters. So, Zen and
Yamaha are scooters. Also, Alto, owned by Ritika must be parked at the second from the
left.
⇒ Bajaj must be a car, since Ritz is adjacent a scooter and a car.
∴ There are more than two scooters, which implies there are four scooters. As, no person
owns a particular type of vehicle more than two, the other scooter must be owned by
Ankita. Priya cannot be a bike, in that case, both the bikes owned by Nitika, which is not
possible. Hence, Priya is a car. The final arrangement is as follows.

Which of the following gives the correct combination of the vehicle, type of vehicle and
the owner?
Priya - Scooter - Nitika

Explanation
There are seven vehicles of three types and three owners. No two types of vehicles are

Hence the number of vehicles of each type is 4, 2 and 1 and the number of vehicles with

As Priya is to the left of Ritz, Priya must be parked at the first position from the left.

Question No: 26

DIRECTIONS for the question: The question is followed by two statements A and B.
answer the question using the following instructions.

A small storage tank is spherical in shape. What is the storage volume of the tank?

A. The wall thickness of the tank is 1 cm.


B. When the empty spherical tank is immersed in a large tank filled with water, 20 litres
of water overflow from the large tank.
If the question can be answered by using one of the statements alone, but cannot be
answered using the other statement alone.
If the question can be answered by using either statement alone.
If the question can be answered by using both statements together, but cannot be
answered using either statement alone.
If the question cannot be answered even by using both statements together.
Explanation
Statement I gives the thickness of the wall which is of no use to find the volume of the
tank since we do not know the radius of the sphere.
Statement II gives us the answer as the volume of
water displaced is equal to the volume of the immersed
tank (from Archimedes’ principle)
So to find the exact storage volume of the tank both
the statements are needed.

Correct answer is: C

‘D’ stands for not less than
'E' stands for not equal to
‘F’ stands for greater than
Taking the two Premises (2M B N) and (2N A 3K) to be true, which of the given options
would also be true (Taking all three numbers to to be non-zero)?

2M D 3K
2M B 3K
2M C 3K
2K B 3N
Explanation

A => ≤ B => = C => <


D => >= E => ≠ F => >

2M B N
Since, from the question B stands for equal to
=> 2M = N => 4M = 2N

2N A 3K
According to the question A stands for not greater than that A implies less than and
equal to
=> 2N ≤ 3K
so 4M = 2N ≤ 3K
Hence, from above two statements
=> 4M ≤ 3K
Option (1)
2M D 3K
According to the question D stands for not less than that D implies greater than and
equal to
=> 2M >= 3K : Not True

Option (2)
2MB3K
from the question B stands for equal to

Question No: 1

DIRECTIONS for the question: Read the passage and answer the question based on it.

We are well into the 21st century yet half the world’s population live in squatter
settlements and work in shadow economies, which generate more than one-third of
the developing world’s GDP. slums are not caused by the poor but by governments
denying people the right to own and exchange property. When people own their own
property they have incentives to invest time, money and energy to improve it because
they know that they will be able to benefit from any such improvements, i.e. the ability
to obtain mortgages etc. In short, property rights beget capital, which begets
innovation, which begets wealth. Sadly, the poor typically don’t have secure title to
their lands as there are bureaucratic restrictions on transferring title or there is no clear
system for titling. Without legal deeds they live in constant fear of being evicted by
landlords or municipal officials. Illiteracy is a major reason poor people often choose
not to seek the protection of local courts since in so many countries laws established
under colonial rule have never been translated into local languages. When
entrepreneurs do set out to legally register business they are discouraged by red tape
and costly fees. In Egypt, starting a bakery takes 500 days, compliance with 315 laws
and 27 times the monthly minimum wage. The proprietors of such businesses cannot
get loans, enforce contracts or expand a personal network of familiar customers and
partners. As a result the poor have no choice but to accept insecurity and instability as
a way of life.

In India severe restrictions on free transfer of property in most rural areas inhibit
investment and encourage urban flight. Planning policies however discourage building
homes for these migrants as numerous homes are destroyed if they do not comply with
planning rules, essentially forcing people to live in slums and perversely blaming it on
population growth. UN Habitat, the UN agency for housing the poor, has implemented
more plans to stabilize the unplanned aspects of urban growth but grandiose plans like
UN Schemes and government housing projects simply ignore or worsen the underlying
problems. It is when governments grant people legal means to control their assets that
they empower them to invest and plan ahead. In Buenos Aires, economists studied the
experience of two Argentine communities. One had received legal title to its land in the
1980s and surpassed i.e. other group which had not, in a range of social indicators
including quality of house construction and education levels. The Commission on Legal
Empowerment of the Poor – a UN affiliated initiative made up of two dozen leaders – is
exploring leas to extend enforceable legal rights to impoverished members of society
and is seeking to bring about a consensus on incentives for national and local leaders.
As the growth of illegal settlements amply demonstrates, the poor are not helpless; all
they need is governments to grant them fundamental human rights of freedom and
responsibility.

What did the Argentine study indicate?

1. Argentina’s economy is booming and the percentage of poor has fallen.


2. When the government gives people the legal means to control their assests they plan
for the future.
3. The Government succeeded in widening the gap between the rich and the poor.

According to the author, which of the following factors is responsible for the creation of
a slum?
Migration of landless laborers to cities
Municipal authorities building low-cost housing for the poor
Unchecked population growth
Government failure to secure property rights for citizens

Question No: 9

DIRECTIONS for the question: Answer the following question as per the best of your
judgment.
The Best Brew Company’s coffee crop for 1998-99 totalled 8,079 tonnes, an all time record. The
increase over the previous year’s production of 5,830 tonnes was 38.58%. The previous highest
crop was 6,089 tonnes in 1970-71. The company had fixed a target of 8,000 tonnes to be realized
by the year 2000-01, and this was achieved two years ahead of time, thanks to the emphasis laid
on the key areas of irrigation, replacement of unproductive coffee bushes, intensive refilling and
improved agricultural practices. The company now planned to reach the target of 10,000 tonnes
in the year 2001-02.

Which one of the following would contribute most to making the target of 10,000 tonnes in
2001-02 unrealistic?

The potential of the productivity enhancing measures implemented up to now are


exhausted
The total company land under coffee has remained constant since 1969 when an estate in
the Nilgiri Hills was acquired
The sensitivity of the crop to climatic factors makes predictions about production uncertain
The target-setting procedures in the company have been proved to be sound by the
achievement of the 8,000 tonne target
Explanation
Conclusion: High growth rates can be continued.
Assumption: More scope for productivity increase, Scope for increase in acreage.
Option 2 implies that an achievement of 6089 tonnes has to be ruled out.
Option 3 could work in both ways.
Option 4 contradicts the data that target was achieved in time.
Hence Option 1 is the only one making the possibility of achieving the given target of 10,000
tonnes very unrealistic.

Question No: 15
DIRECTION for the question: Answer the question based on the information given in the
passage.

A few of our public institutions foster a culture of transparency and accountability. The
Right To Information (RTl) Act was enacted in 2005 to change this tradition of opacity
and make governance a transparent process. The Act has been working reasonably well
and has become a useful tool for a large cross-section of civil society to examine the
working of the government. Since in the process, institutional failures get exposed as
well, there is resistance to the RTI culture from various quarters including the
government. Many public institutions that come under the ambit of the Act now want its
radical edge blunted. Many state information commissions are starved of funds and
personnel, which may lead to a collapse of the institution itself. Many pleas to amend
the Act must be seen in this context and handled with caution. It is important that we
adhere strictly to its (RTI Act) original aims and refrain from accepting or introducing
changes in the legislation on the way it is implemented that would dilute its purpose.
Which of the following is not in consonance with the contents of the passage?
To give teeth to the RTI legislation, the government must beef up infrastructure at the
information commissions
The push to amend the RTI Act came first from the government itself so that frivolous
and vexatious applications could be discarded and disclosures of the file notings
exempted
The functioning of judiciary is being asked to be exempted from the scope of the Act
to safeguard its independence and misuse of the highly confidential and sensitive
nature of the information
The focus must be to restrict the scope of the RTI Act rather than to create a climate
of information
Explanation
There is resistance to the RTI culture from various quarters including the government.
Hence options C and D are in consonance with the text. .
Option B is stated nowhere in the passage.

Correct answer is: B

Refer the lines from the 1st paragraph, 'When people own their own property they have
incentives to invest time, money and energy to improve it because they know that they
will be able to benefit from any such improvements, i.e. the ability to obtain mortgages

Question No: 30

DIRECTIONS for the question: Read the passage and answer the question based on it.
We are well into the 21st century yet half the world’s population live in squatter
settlements and work in shadow economies, which generate more than one-third of
the developing world’s GDP. Slums are not caused by the poor but by governments
denying people the right to own and exchange property. When people own their own
property they have incentives to invest time, money and energy to improve it because
they know that they will be able to benefit from any such improvements, i.e. the ability
to obtain mortgages etc. In short, property rights beget capital, which begets
innovation, which begets wealth. Sadly, the poor typically don’t have secure title to
their lands as there are bureaucratic restrictions on transferring title or there is no clear
system for titling. Without legal deeds they live in constant fear of being evicted by
landlords or municipal officials. Illiteracy is a major reason poor people often choose
not to seek the protection of local courts since in so many countries laws established
under colonial rule have never been translated into local languages. When
entrepreneurs do set out to legally register business they are discouraged by red tape
and costly fees. In Egypt, starting a bakery takes 500 days, compliance with 315 laws
and 27 times the monthly minimum wage. The proprietors of such businesses cannot
get loans, enforce contracts or expand a personal network of familiar customers and
partners. As a result the poor have no choice but to accept insecurity and instability as
a way of life.

In India severe restrictions on free transfer of property in most rural areas inhibit
investment and encourage urban flight. Planning policies however discourage building
homes for these migrants as numerous homes are destroyed if they do not comply with
planning rules, essentially forcing people to live in slums and perversely blaming it on
population growth. UN Habitat, the UN agency for housing the poor, has implemented
more plans to stabilize the unplanned aspects of urban growth but grandiose plans like
UN Schemes and government housing projects simply ignore or worsen the underlying
problems. It is when governments grant people legal means to control their assets that
they empower them to invest and plan ahead. In Buenos Aires, economists studied the
experience of two Argentine communities. One had received legal title to its land in the
1980s and surpassed i.e. other group which had not, in a range of social indicators
including quality of house construction and education levels. The Commission on Legal
Empowerment of the Poor – a UN affiliated initiative made up of two dozen leaders – is
exploring ideas to extend enforceable legal rights to impoverished members of society
and is seeking to bring about a consensus on incentives for national and local leaders.
As the growth of illegal settlements amply demonstrates, the poor are not helpless; all
they need is governments to grant them fundamental human rights of freedom and
responsibility.
The author’s main objective in writing the passage is to
exhort the UN to play a greater role in rehabilitating slum-dwellers
Praise government initiatives for migrant slum-dwellers
convince governments to empower the poor
enlist the aid of developed countries to tackle the issue of slums
Explanation
The entire passage talks about need to empower the poor and it is further supported by
the lines 'as the growth of illegal settlements amply demonstrates, the poor are not
helpless; all they need is governments to grant them fundamental human rights of
freedom and responsibility'.

Correct answer is: C

Question No: 34

DIRECTION for the question: The question is based on a passage or a set of


conditions. Select the best answer from the answer choices given which are
numbered (A), (B), (C) and (D).

Biometric access-control systems-those using finger-prints, voice-prints, and so forth, to


regulate admittance to restricted areas-work by degrees of similarity, not by identity.
After all, even the same finger will rarely leave exactly identical prints. Such systems can
be adjusted to minimize refusals of access to legitimate access-seekers. Such
adjustments, however, increase the likelihood of admitting imposters.

Which of the following conclusions is most strongly supported by the information above?
No biometric access-control systems-based, for example, on numerical codes – are
less likely than biometric ones to admit imposters
Biometric access-control systems are appropriate only in situations in which
admittance of imposters is less a problem than a mistaken refusal of access
Anyone choosing an access-control system should base the choice solely on the ratio
of false refusals to false admittance
If a biometric access-control system reliably prevents imposters from being
admitted, it will sometimes turn away legitimate access-seekers
Explanation
Option D is correct.
The two strong options here are B and D.
The difference is the choice of words to indicate probability
B says “only” while D says “sometimes”.
Since the argument discusses only one situation, where it is moderate in its language, D
is the better answer.

Correct answer is: D
