Choose the most effective replacement for the underlined segment: "Having worked for ten hours straight, the final report was finally submitted by the research team."

Official Correct Answer: B. Candid means frank, open, and sincere. Deceitful means misleading and insincere, making it the direct antonym.
Question 4 of 12
NMAT 2023 • Pronoun ErrorVARCVerbal Ability • Error IdentificationModerate
Identify the part of the sentence with an error: "Neither of the five candidates (A) / who appeared for the interview (B) / was deemed suitable (C) / for the executive post (D)."

Question 5 of 12
NMAT 2024 • Critical ReasoningDILRLogical Reasoning • Statement & AssumptionsModerate
Statement: "The city municipal corporation has decided to install solar-powered LED streetlights across all major avenues to reduce electricity bills."
Assumptions:
I
Solar energy is cheaper than conventional thermal grid electricity over the long term.
II
The initial installation costs can be recovered through municipal energy savings.
Official Correct Answer: C. Both assumptions are implicit because switching to solar to reduce bills assumes that solar is cheaper over time and that operational savings will justify the capital expenditure.
Question 6 of 12
NMAT 2024 • Machine Input-OutputDILRLogical Reasoning • Input-Output ReasoningHard
An arrangement machine rearranges words and numbers based on a rule. Input: "delta 42 alpha 89 beta 17 gamma 65" Step 1: "89 delta 42 alpha beta 17 gamma 65" Step 2: "89 alpha delta 42 beta 17 gamma 65" Step 3: "89 alpha 65 delta 42 beta 17 gamma" What will be Step 4?
Official Correct Answer: A. Rule alternates between descending numbers (89, 65, 42, 17) and alphabetical words (alpha, beta, delta, gamma). Step 4 moves the next alphabetical word ("beta") to the 4th position.
Question 7 of 12
NMAT 2024 • Course of ActionDILRLogical Reasoning • Course of ActionModerate
Statement: "A massive influx of counterfeit pharmaceutical drugs was intercepted at the state border warehouse."
Courses of Action:
I
The state drug control administration should immediately mandate cryptographic QR serialization on all medicine packaging.
II
All retail pharmacies should be permanently closed down across the state.

Is the integer x divisible by 6?
Statement I
x is divisible by 2 and 3.
Statement II
x is divisible by 12.
Official Correct Answer: D. Statement I: Since 2 and 3 are coprime, x divisible by 2 and 3 means x is divisible by 6 (sufficient). Statement II: Any multiple of 12 is also a multiple of 6 (sufficient). Hence EACH alone is sufficient.
Question 10 of 12
NMAT 2024 • AveragesQAArithmetic • Averages & MixturesEasy
The average weight of 24 students in a class is 56 kg. If the weight of the teacher is included, the average weight increases by 800 grams. What is the weight of the teacher?

In how many different ways can the letters of the word "LEADING" be arranged such that the vowels always come together?
Official Correct Answer: C. Vowels: E, A, I (3 vowels). Consonants: L, D, N, G (4 consonants). Treat (EAI) as 1 unit. Total units = 4 + 1 = 5 units, arrange in 5! = 120 ways. Vowels among themselves in 3! = 6 ways. Total = 120 * 6 = 720.
Question 12 of 12
NMAT 2023 • NumbersQANumbers • Remainders & DivisibilityModerate
What is the remainder when (7^84) is divided by 342?
Official Correct Answer: A. 7^3 = 343 = 342 + 1. (7^84) = (7^3)^28 = (342 + 1)^28. By Binomial Theorem, remainder when divided by 342 is 1^28 = 1.
