CAT 2024 | DILR Set 1

Direction Q.1 to 5:

The figure below shows a network with three parallel roads represented by horizontal lines R-A, R-B, and R-C and another three parallel roads represented by vertical lines V1, V2, and V3. The figure also shows the distance (in km) between two adjacent intersections. Six ATMs are placed at six of the nine road intersections. Each ATM has a distinct integer cash requirement (in Rs. Lakhs), and the numbers at the end of each line in the figure indicate the total cash requirements of all ATMs placed on the corresponding road. For example, the total cash requirement of the ATM(s) placed on road R-A is Rs. 22 Lakhs.

The following additional information is known.

    1. The ATMs with the minimum and maximum cash requirements of Rs. 7 Lakhs and Rs. 15 Lakhs are placed on the same road.
    2. The road distance between the ATM with the second highest cash requirement and the ATM located at the intersection of R-C and V3 is12 km.
CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Set 1

1. Which of the following statements is correct?

  1. The ATM placed at the (R-C, V2) intersection has a cash requirement of Rs. 9 Lakhs.
  2. The cash requirement of the ATM placed at the (R-C, V2) intersection cannot be uniquely determined.
  3. The ATM placed at the (R-C, V2) intersection has a cash requirement of Rs. 8 Lakhs.
  4. There is no ATM placed at the (R-C, V2) intersection.

By keeping all conditions in mind, We can see There should be an ATM placed at intersection of V3 and R-C. Also, By condition (2), we can judge there is only one possibility to place ATM with second highest cash requirement at intersection of V2 and R-B. Because this is the only place which is 12 km away. Also, we cannot use distinct integers ranging from 7 to 15. So, By hit and trial, there are only two cases to arrange all 6 ATM’s in following manner: CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 2 Option (A) is correct as The ATM placed at the (R-C, V2) intersection has a cash requirement of Rs. 9 Lakh.

2. How many ATMs have cash requirements of Rs. 10 Lakhs or more?

By keeping all conditions in mind, We can see There should be an ATM placed at intersection of V3 and R-C. Also, By condition (2), we can judge there is only one possibility to place ATM with second highest cash requirement at intersection of V2 and R-B. Because this is the only place which is 12 km away. Also, we cannot use distinct integers ranging from 7 to 15. So, By hit and trial, there are only two cases to arrange all 6 ATM’s in following manner: CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 2 In Case 1, ATMs with cash requirement of 15 L, 12 L, 11L are more than 10 L. In case (2), ATMs with cash requirement of 15 L, 12 L, 11L are more than 10 L. Hence there are 3 ATMs with cash requirements of Rs. 10 Lakh or more.

3. Which of the following two statements is/are DEFINITELY true? Statement A: Each of R-A, R-B, and R-C has two ATMs. Statement B: Each of V1, V2, and V3 has two ATMs.

  1. Only Statement B
  2. Neither Statement A nor Statement B
  3. Both Statement A and Statement B
  4. Only Statement A

By keeping all conditions in mind, We can see There should be an ATM placed at intersection of V3 and R-C. Also, By condition (2), we can judge there is only one possibility to place ATM with second highest cash requirement at intersection of V2 and R-B. Because this is the only place which is 12 km away. Also, we cannot use distinct integers ranging from 7 to 15. So, By hit and trial, there are only two cases to arrange all 6 ATM’s in following manner: CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 3 As we can see in both cases only statement (1) is right but statement (2) is wrong in case (1). Hence option (D) is the answer.

4. What is the number of ATMs whose locations and cash requirements can both be uniquely determined?

By keeping all conditions in mind, We can see There should be an ATM placed at intersection of V3 and R-C. Also, By condition (2), we can judge there is only one possibility to place ATM with second highest cash requirement at intersection of V2 and R-B. Because this is the only place which is 12 km away. Also, we cannot use distinct integers ranging from 7 to 15. So, By hit and trial, there are only two cases to arrange all 6 ATM’s in following manner: CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 4 We can determine only 3 ATMs’ locations uniquely and they are (V2, R-B), (V2, R-C) and (V3, R-C).

5. What best can be said about the road distance (in km) between the ATMs having the second highest and the second lowest cash requirements?

  1. 4 km
  2. 5 km
  3. Either 4 km or 7 km
  4. 7 km

By keeping all conditions in mind, We can see There should be an ATM placed at intersection of V3 and R-C. Also, By condition (2), we can judge there is only one possibility to place ATM with second highest cash requirement at intersection of V2 and R-B. Because this is the only place which is 12 km away. Also, we cannot use distinct integers ranging from 7 to 15. So, By hit and trial, there are only two cases to arrange all 6 ATM’s in following manner: CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 5 In case (1), ATMs (V2, R-B) and (V3, R-B) are the ATMs with second highest and second lowest requirements. Hence distance between them is 7 KM. In case (2), ATMs ((V1, R-B) and (V2, R-B) are the ATMs with second lowest and second highest requirements. Hence distance between them is 4 KM. So ans is either D or 7 KM.

  4. 40%

Let the total number of subscribers in 2023 = 100x From point 1, the total number of subscribers in 2024 = 100x + 10% of 100x = 110x In 2023, Total number of subscribers from Kid category = 15% of 100x = 15x From point 3 and 4, in 2023 Number of subscribers from Kid category using one app = 10000. So, number of subscribers from Kid category using multiple apps = 15x – 10000 = number of subscribers from Elder category using one app. Also, number of subscribers from Elder category using multiple apps = 15000 So, total number of subscribers from Elder category = 15x – 10000 + 15000 = 20% of 100x = 20x Solving, x = 1000 So, the total number of subscribers in 2023 = 100000 and in 2024 = 110000 CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 8

9. What could be the minimum percentage of subscribers who used multiple apps in 2024?

  1. 20.0%
  2. 10.0%
  3. 22.00%
  4. 16.5%

Let the total number of subscribers in 2023 = 100x From point 1, the total number of subscribers in 2024 = 100x + 10% of 100x = 110x In 2023, Total number of subscribers from Kid category = 15% of 100x = 15x From point 3 and 4, in 2023 Number of subscribers from Kid category using one app = 10000. So, number of subscribers from Kid category using multiple apps = 15x – 10000 = number of subscribers from Elder category using one app. Also, number of subscribers from Elder category using multiple apps = 15000 So, total number of subscribers from Elder category = 15x – 10000 + 15000 = 20% of 100x = 20x Solving, x = 1000 So, the total number of subscribers in 2023 = 100000 and in 2024 = 110000 CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 9

DIRECTIONS for the question: Analyse the graph/s given below and answer the question that follows.

The air-conditioner (AC) in a large room can be operated either in REGULAR mode or in POWER mode to reduce the temperature.

If the AC operates in REGULAR mode, then it brings down the temperature inside the room (called inside temperature) at a constant rate to the set temperature in 1 hour. If it operates in POWER mode, then this is achieved in 30 minutes.

If the AC is switched off, then the inside temperature rises at a constant rate so as to reach the temperature outside at the time of switching off in 1 hour. The temperature outside has been falling at a constant rate from 7 pm onward until 3 am on a particular night. The following graph shows the inside temperature between 11 pm (23:00) and 2 am (2:00) that night.

CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Set 4

The following facts are known about the AC operation that night.

  • The AC was turned on for the first time that night at 11 pm (23:00).
  • The AC setting was changed (including turning it on/off, and/or setting different temperatures) only at the beginning of the hour or at 30 minutes after the hour.
  • The AC was used in POWER mode for longer duration than in REGULAR mode during this3-hour period.

15. What was the temperature outside, in degree Celsius, at 1 am?

Given that the AC was turned on for the first time that night at 11 pm. So the temperature inside the room = 38 °C = the temperature outside the room. Let the falling rate of temperature outside the room per hour = x °C So, at 1 am (after 2 hours), the outside temperature = (38 – 2x) °C Also given that it takes 1 hour to reach the temperature outside while AC was switched off. Now, from 12 am to 12:30 pm, the temperature reached from 26 °C to 31 °C while AC was switched off, so it should have been reached from 31 °C to 36 °C from 12:30 pm to 1 pm (as per the constant rise in the rate), but along with that outside temperature is also falling at x °C per hour. So, at 1 pm, the outside temperature should be = (36 – x) °C Equating, (38 – 2x) °C = (36 – x) °C => x = 2 °C per hour CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 15 So, the temperature outside at 1 pm = 36 – 2 = 34 °C

16. What was the temperature outside, in degree Celsius, at 9 pm?

Given that the AC was turned on for the first time that night at 11 pm. So the temperature inside the room = 38 °C = the temperature outside the room. Let the falling rate of temperature outside the room per hour = x °C So, at 1 am (after 2 hours), the outside temperature = (38 – 2x) °C Also given that it takes 1 hour to reach the temperature outside while AC was switched off. Now, from 12 am to 12:30 pm, the temperature reached from 26 °C to 31 °C while AC was switched off, so it should have been reached from 31 °C to 36 °C from 12:30 pm to 1 pm (as per the constant rise in the rate), but along with that outside temperature is also falling at x °C per hour. So, at 1 pm, the outside temperature should be = (36 – x) °C Equating, (38 – 2x) °C = (36 – x) °C => x = 2 °C per hour CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 16 At 9 pm (2 hours prior to 11 pm), the temperature outside = 38 + 2x = 42 °C

17. What best can be concluded about the number of times the AC must have either been turned on or the AC temperature setting been altered between 11:01 pm and 1:59 am?

  1. Exactly 2
  2. Either 2 or 3
  3. More than 3
  4. Exactly 3

Between 11:01 pm and 1:59 pm, the AC have been turned on at 12:30 am and 1:30 am, when the inside temperature starts falling. Along with that it is given that the AC used in POWER mode is for longer duration that in REGULAR mode during 11 pm to 2 am and this alteration can be done after every 30 minutes. This is possible as follows- From 11 pm to 11:30 pm – REGULAR mode From 11:30 pm to 12 pm – POWER mode From 12:30 pm to 1 pm – POWER mode From 1:30 pm to 2 pm – POWER mode So, there must be an alteration at 11:30 pm Hence, the number of time the AC must have been turned on or settings altered = 2 + 1 = 3 (exactly)

18. What was the maximum difference between temperature outside and inside temperature, in degree Celsius, between 11:01 pm and 1:59 am?

CAT 2024 Slot 3 DILR Answer 18Between 11:01 pm and 11:59 am, the maximum difference between temperature outside and inside was at 12 am = 36 – 26 = 10 °C
