Section 2:  Arithmetic Test

The main purpose of this test is to measure candidate's basic competencies in   Arithmetic. All the Twenty-five questions of this test will be based on the following 15 topics

1.          Number and numeric system.

2.          Four fundamental operations on whole number.

3.          Fractional number and four fundamental operations on them.

4.          Factors and multiple including their properties.

5.          LCM and HCF of numbers.

6.         Decimals and fundamental operations on them.

7.         Conversion of fractions to decimals and vice-versa.

8.         Applications of number in measure length, mass, capacity, time, money etc

9.         Distance, time and speed.

10.        Approximation of expressions.

11.        Simplification of Numerical Expressions,

12.        Percentage and its applications.

13.        Profit and loss.

14.        Simple interest.

15.        Perimeter, area and volume.

Note:- Emphasis will be more on testing of understanding and Application of the concepts and skills   involved. In order to provide some guidance to the candidates on the types of questions that are expected in Arithmetic lest, some examples are given below-

Example - 1 (Test of Understanding):

What is the prime factorization of 1000?

1.           10x10x10

2.           2x5x5x10

3.           2 x 2 x 2 x5 x 5

4.           2 x 2x 2 x 5 x5 x 5

A factorization of a number is said to be a prime factorization if (i) the product of the factors (taking a factor as many times as it occurs) is equal to the given number, and (ii) each factor is a prime number. Here only serial number 4 satisfies both the requirements. As such, serial number 4 is the correct answer.

Example 2 (Test of Understanding):

What is the average of first four odd numbers?

1.      2.5

2.      4

3.      5

4.      16

The first four odd numbers are 1.3.5 and 7.  Their average (l+3+5+7)/4. As such, serial number 2 is the correct answer.

Example 3 (Test of Application):

A 1 km. long goods train is running at speed of I km. per 3 minutes, the time taken by this train to pass through 2 kms. Long tunnel is:

1.	1 minute
2.	3 minute
3.	6 minute
4.	9  minute

The tunnel is 2 km. long and the train is I km. in length, the train will have to cover a total distance of 3 km. in order to pass through the tunnel running at a speed of 1 km, per 3 minutes, the train will take 9 minutes to pass through ibis tunnel and that is the correct answer. As such, serial number 4 is the correct answer.

Section 3: Language Test.
