Answer :
Explanation :
This question is designed to see how well you can mediate a situation and handle conflict. You want to come across as someone who can compromise when necessary. An interviewer wants to see that you can not only reach an outcome that is desirable for both sides of a conflict of interest, but also that you can understand where the other person is coming from. Empathy and understanding go a long way in any job and this is a good opportunity to show that you can put yourself in another’s shoes.

Answer : 4. "253"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 253 Explanation: The first person shakes hands with 22 different people, the second person also shakes hands with 22 different people, but one of those handshakes was counted in the 22 for the first person, so the second person actually shakes hands with 21 new people. The third person, 20 people, and so on... So, 22 + 21 + 20 + 19 + 18 + 17 + 16 + 15 + 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1= n(n+1)/2 = 22 x 23 /2 = 11 x 23 = 253.

Answer : 4. "Data is not sufficient"
Explanation :
Answer: D) Data is not sufficient Explanation: Let the sum be Rs. p, rate be R% p.a. and time be T years. Then, P×T×(R+2)100-P×T×R100=108 ⇒2PT= 10800 ...... (1) And, P×R×(T+2)100-P×R×T100=180 ⇒2PR = 18000 ......(2) Clearly, from (1) and (2), we cannot find the value of pSo, the data is not sufficient.
