INFOSYS - Placement Paper - 12 July 2006-Khammam

I have gone thru Infy on 12th July in Khammam thru cpm, I could'nt get thru the test. The paper was simple. All 9 out of ten were previous questions u don blieve
=>so verbal was given importance while correcting and also don't attend all 10 questions even if u know correct bcoz of upper cutoff and answer those questions those which u know sol, don't try to bluff by attempting guessing.
One of my friends wrote 6 questions correctly and dint attended other questions was selected, so be aware that attempt only known questions, nothing wrong in trying but if u don get sol dont write answer on mains if u already know answer.
i tried 2 solve most of the questions and the solution I gave is one of the approaches to make u understand.

1. A boy asks his father, "what is the age of grand father?". Father replied "He is x years old in x^2 years", and also said, "we are talking
about 20th century". what is the year of birth of grand father?
Solution:
20th century means 1900 to 1999
so find a perfect square in this range

1936-44=1892
Ans: 1892 (sure)

4*2=8
8+2=10
10*2=20
20+1=21
21*2=42
sol.2:)
she has initially x
a(gave) b(remaining)
(1)(x/2)+1 (1) (x/2)-1
(2)((x+6)/4)+2 ie [(1)/2+2] (2) (x-10)/4 ie b(1)-a(2)
(3) (x+14)/8+3 ie [(2)/2+3] (3) b(2)-a(3)=1 u get answer for x
