- 1. Try to find out for whom it has to be calculated, make it as reference point for others.
2. Outline the incoming data or condition in a timeline, graphical, block, tabular, etc. with respect to your reference point.
3. if some information is seems to be irrelevant or obvious then don't waste time in it, just move on to next.
4. the most important thing is to discard options with each data or condition you analyse, this will help to get the solutions quickly.(i personally prefer elimination of options, instead of hunting blindly for one of the 4 options.) - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(7) No(0)

visit the above websit and u will find the table to solve such questions
and u just need to find out the false condition and cross those
for example from your statement u can cross as follows
1.pari is not the daughter of sobha
2.pari was born after 2 hours means she was not born at 1st 2 houss
3.sobha's child was born 2 hours before means her child didnot born at last 2 hous
4.and if pari was born on monday no other babies would have born on monday so u can cross monday for other babies
5.pari was born on monday means u can cross other week days for pari. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
Elitmus Other Question
Sharmila has to write an analysis on the cost and speed of 5 cars (A, B, C, D and E) and 3 motorcycles ( P, Q and R). A is
the fastest among the cars and R is the slowest among the motorcycles. C is costlier than D and Q but cheaper than B.
Among the cars, A is not the costliest. D is cheaper than E and there is no car whose cost lies between the cost of these
two. E is faster than three of the cars and all the motorcycles. Q is costlier than R but cheaper than P, which is faster
than Q. Now, based on her analysis, Professor Venkat asks her to verify the following statements and determine which
statement must necessarily be true.
OPTIONS
1) D can be the median value among cars as far as their cost is concerned.
2) If P is costlier than E, exactly 2 cars are cheaper than P.
3) If P is cheaper than A which is not costlier than E, R is the cheapest of all cars and motorcycles put
together.
4) None of the above
