The car moves 1/2 mile in 1 minute.

Speed of the car = 1/2 mile for 1 min.

30 miles for 60 min(1 hr).

Therefore, the speed of the car is 30 mph.

Also, the speed of the observant car is 55 mph.

And both are moving in the same direction, we must add the speeds.

So, speed of the car = (55 + 30) mph

= 85 mph.

Let a(n) denote the n-th term of the given series.

Then, we observe that

a(1)=70,\\\\a(2)=54=70-16=a(1)-4^{2},\\\\a(3)=45=54-9=a(2)-3^{2},\\\\a(4)=41=45-4=a(3)-2^{2},

Repeating the above rule, we get

a(5)=a(4)-1^{2}=41-1=40.

Thus, the next term in the given series is 40.

George can do the work in 8 hours

⇒ 1 hour = 1/8 of the work

Paul can do the work in 10 hours

⇒1 hour = 1/10 of the work

Hari can do the work in 12 hours

⇒ 1 hour = 1/12 of the work

Find the amount of work that can be completed in an hour:

⇒ 1 hour = 1/8 + 1/10 + 1/12 = 37/120

Find the amount of work completed in 2 hours (9 am to 11 am):

⇒ 1 hour = 37/120

⇒2 hours = 37/120 x 2 = 37/60

Find the amount of work remain:

Work remain = 1 - 37/60 = 23/60

Find the amount of work Paul and Hari can do in an hour:

1 hour = 1/10 + 1/12 = 11/60

Find the number of hours needed for them to complete the rest of the work:

Number of hours needed = 23/60 ÷ 11/60 = 2.09 hours = 2 hours

Find the time the work is completed:

11am + 2 hours = 1 pm

Ratio of efficiency of sush and komal = 7:4

Total work = Total efficiency * total time

= (7+4) * 7 = 77

Efficiency of sush = 7

so, sush alone can do the work in = 77 / 7 = 11 days

Acc to the question, there are 3 equations given:

a+b+ab= 8-----(i)

b+c+bc=15------(ii)

c+a+ca = 35---------(iii)

Now adding 1 to both the sides of equ (i) we get,

a+b+ab+1= 8+1

or, (a+1)(b+1)=9.

Similarly we get, (b+1)(c+1)=16 and (a+1)(c+1)=36.

now starting from the second equation,

We know that 16 has many factors but we have to brute force for satisfying the equation.

We know, 16 = 2 * 8 = (1+1) * (7+1) now, comparing it with equ(ii) we get, b=1,c=7.

Now putting the value of c in any two of the remaining equation we get,

(a+1)*(c+1)=36

or, (a+1)*(7+1)=36

or,(a+1) = 36/8 = 4.5

or, a = 4.5 - 1 = 3.5.

Now, a+b+c+abc = 3.5 + 1 + 7 + 3.5*1*7 = 36.

Here,
Two things have to be taken into account:
• Common difference
• No. of such pairs

For simplicity,
Consider range as 1 - 10
Here, when the common difference exceeds 5, numbers are not paired as per the condition.

Like if you take 6 as common difference, not all the pairs will have same value, because it is impossible.

•°• For range 1 - n, we have (n/2) common differences.

Now,
Coming to the given range 1 - 70
n = 70
=> (n/2) = 35

•°• No. of common differences that will satisfy the condition = 35

Now, Find sum of these differences.
1 + 2 + 3 + …… + 35
= (35 × 36) ÷ 2
= 630

•°• Required sum of all such common differences = 630

Let r be half the side of the square.

Consider one of the twelve triangle segments made by a side of the dodecagon and the centre of the dodecagon ( = the centre of the square).

The angle at the centre is 360° / 12 = 30°.

The two sides of the triangle that meet at the centre each have length r, as this is the radius of the circumscribed circle.

The area of this small triangle is then (1/2) r² sin 30° = r² / 4.

The dodecagon is made up of twelve of these triangles, so

area(dodecagon) = 12 × r² / 4 = 3 r².

As r is half the side of the square,

area(square) = 4 r².

Therefore

area(dodecagon ) / area(square) = 3 / 4

=> area(dodecagon) = 3 × 24 / 4 = 3 × 6 = 18

Here we have to find out the number of ways we can distribute 100 rupees money to rupee 1 and rupee 2.

The simplest method is to find out the number of ways is to calculate the number of coins we use to break partitions. As an example, the ways are

1, 1, 1,..........................................,1 (100 times 1)

1, 1, 1, ......................................, 1 and 2 (98 times 1 and 1 time 2)

1, 1, 1, ....................................., 1, 2 , 2 ( 96 times 1 and 2 times 2)

.............................

proceeding in this way, our last combination for taking the coins be

2, 2, 2, ........................, 2 (50 times 2)

So, here, we can find the numbers of ways by counting the number of 2 we took and is equal to 50 + 1 = 51.

A = Area of the full triangle

Stripe 1

is a triangle that is similar to the full triangle.
It has height = \frac{1}{9}× height of the larger triangle.
Area(1) = \frac{1}{9}^{2}× Area of larger triangle =\frac{1}{81} A

Stripes 1 and 2 form a triangle that is similar to a larger triangle.
This triangle has height =\frac{2}{9}× height of the larger triangle.
Area(1 and 2)=\frac{2}{9}^{2}× Area of larger triangle =\frac{4}{81}A
Area(2)=\frac{4}{81}A − \frac{1}{81}A= \frac{3}{81}A

Stripes 1,2, and 3 forms a triangle that is similar to a larger triangle.
This triangle has height =\frac{3}{9} × height of the larger triangle.
Area(1,2, and 3)=\frac{3}{9}^{2} × Area of larger triangle = \frac{9}{81}A
Area(3)=\frac{9}{81}A − \frac{4}{81}A=\frac{5}{81}A

and so on…

Area(4)=\frac{7}{81}A

Area(5)=\frac{9}{81}A

Area(6)=\frac{11}{81|}A

Area(7)=\frac{13}{81}A

Area(8)=\frac{15}{81}A

Area(9)=\frac{17}{81}A

So depending on which stripes are shaded, you should be able to figure out the area in terms of A, set this =135, then solve for A.

So \frac{135}{A} = \frac{45}{81} gives an area of 243 square units.

The probability that Anu will get to watch the Wimbledon match is 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of any number appearing = 1/4

Anu wins in the following condition

1) If 1 occus on the first roll then there is no chance of her winning because in the next roll the number appeaing will be either 1 or greater than 1

2) If 2 appears on 1st roll then Anu will win if 1 appears on the second roll

3) If 3 appears on the 1st roll then Anu will win if 1 or 2 appears on the second roll

4) If 4 appears on the first roll then Anu will win if 1, 2, 3 appears on the second roll

TCS NQT Interview Prep

Candidate Experience for TCS NQT Question Paper

  • Name: Mitanshu Mehta
  • College: Teerthanker Mahaveer University
  • Branch: Computer Science
  • Type of interview: On-Campus Interview

Student Interview

During our last semester TCS visited our campus for its recruitment drive. As it is one of the India’s leading IT Service and consultation organization, I really wanted to join it. I had no clues about how to organize myself for this interview. However, my seniors recommended me some Practice Sample Papers that were available at Prepinsta to brush up my programming and reasoning skills. The eligibility criteria for this drive is mentioned below:

Eligibility Criteria of  Interview

Qualification Full-time graduate from B.E/B.Tech/M.Tech./M.Sc./MCA
Eligible Streams All engineering fields
%Criteria 60% marks throughout academics
Backlogs 1 Active Backlog.
Gap Criteria Overall Gap not exceeding two years

Number of Rounds

Our professor informed us that we have to complete 2 written and 2 interview rounds to crack the interview. The rounds were Part A(Foundation Section), Part (Advance Section) technical interview round, and HR interview round. The written examination was divided into 2 rounds, which were further divided into several sections:

  1. Part A (Foundation Section)
    • Numerical Ability
    • Verbal Ability
    • Reasoning Ability
  2. Part B (Advance Section)
    • Advance Quantitative Ability
    • Advance Reasoning Ability
    • Advance Coding

The average time duration and number of questions for this round are detailed below:

TCS ITP Overall Pattern - Detailed Information

TCS NQT Section

Total Timee
Part A : Foundation Section 
Traits 30 Seconds
Numerical Ability 25 mins
Verbal Ability 25 mins
Reasoning Ability 25 mins
Part B : Advanced Section (Mandatory for Digital and Prime Aspirants) 
Advanced Quantitative Ability 25 Mins(shared)
Advanced Reasoning Ability 25 mins (shared)
Advanced Coding 90 mins
Total Duration 190 mins

Since I Prepped up well with the help of the practice papers published by PrepInsta , and as most of the questions were of similar pattern to the sample papers itself  so I clear both round with good marks.

*Also, this experience is based on TCS ITP Interview Experience, because this year TCS NQT has same pattern as TCS ITP.

Round 2:

Technical Interview

The technical interview was divided in two parts. First was TCS Ninja (for students who only qualified in the Foundation Section) and the other one was TCS Digital (for Students who also qualified the Advance section).

TCS Ninja

Since TCS is a renowned establishment, the interview rounds were a bit challenging. I must admit that it was a very diverse interview wherein I was asked questions related my field. Some of the questions were:

1.)    Questions based on the fundamentals of C, C++ and dot net.

2.)    Data Structure,

3.)    Computer networking, etc.

TCS Digital

The second interview as conducted with TCS Digital. Now, this was a tricky one of all the other rounds, where I was asked the below mentioned questions:

  1. Check if Binary Tree is BST or not?
  2. Remove duplicates from a string, do it in place
  3. What is the least common ancestor of a Binary Tree or a Binary search tree?
  4. Check if the binary tree is balanced or not?

I somehow managed to answer all the question and sat that day my luck was with me. The interviewer was happy with me and told me that I was selected for the final HR round.

Round 3:

HR Interview

When I went inside the room at first the HR looked very rude, but when he offered me a glass of water, I felt a bit relaxed. He asked me for my CV and started with the interview. He asked me:

1.)    What are your achievements?

2.)    What are your greatest professional strengths?

3.)    How do you feel about working in nights shift?

4.)    What is your commitment to the company?

This round also went pretty well and my result proved it all as I was selected for TCS Digital. That was the happiest day of my life.

Student Details (This is previous year interview experience)

  • Name: Siddhant Verma
  • College: R.V. College of Engineering, Bangalore
  • Branch: ECE
  • Type of interview: Off-campus Interview

Student Interview

Two months back, the placement cell of our college notified all the final year students that TCS will be conducting a recruitment drive in our Off campus very soon. Since, PrepInsta is partnered with our college, we got emails from our placement cell to only study from PrepInsta and they had bought online classes from PrepInsta for all students.. Immediately, everyone applied for it. But due to the eligibility criteria of a minimum 60% marks throughout the academics career, only a few students were eligible for the drive. Fortunately, I was one of those few students. The TCS selection process had 3 rounds;

  1. Online Written Test
  2. Technical Interview Round
  3. HR Interview Round

Written Test

The first round consists of four sections, English, quantitative aptitude, programming concept, and coding.

  • In the English Section, there were 15 questions of sentence completion. Time allocated was 10 minutes.
  • In Quantitative Aptitude, there were 15 questions, and the time allocated was 30 minutes. This section had questions based on time & work, profit & loss, number, decimal fraction, time, speed & distance, coordinate geometry, and blood relations.
  • In the Programming Concept section, there were 10 questions, and time allotted was 20 minutes. The topics asked were Iteration, recursion, procedural vs. Oop, Algorithms, and Data Structures.
  • In the Coding Section, there was only one question, and the time allocated was 30 minutes. The question was based on Perl topic. Overall around 80% of the questions were of similar pattern as of PrepInsta.

Technical Interview

After the written round 3-4 days later I got mail from PrepInsta that I am selected in TCS and after 2 more days I got mail from TCS as well. My Interview center was in Mysore unfortunately. So I had to travel there. There was a technical interview which comprised of two interviews; TCS Ninja and TCS Digital. First, I was asked to go in the room for Ninja interview. When I entered the technical interviewer had a grim expression, so I was a bit scared at the first instance. Bust as soon as our conversation started; I was very comfortable talking to him. He asked me questions on the fundamental of C, C++, JAVA, DBMS, Oop, and my major final year project.

  1. What is the binary search?
  2. Explain the Object Oriented Programming.
  3. What is the difference between pass by value and pass by reference in c?

Except one, I knew all the answers. The interviewer was happy with me and sent me for the second Digital Interview. In this round, I was asked some technical questions:

  • What is Garbage collector in Java?
  • Explain the Kadane algorithm.
  • Discuss also?

The round was very tricky and the toughest of all. I answer what all I knew, and luckily, all my answers were correct. The interviewer congratulated me for clearing the second round and wished me luck for the HR round.

HR Interview

The HR round was very simple and went pretty well. As soon as I entered the HR offered me a glass of water and asked me about my personal life, strength and weakness, future goals, and expectations. He was primarily evaluating my communication skills and confidence by asking these questions. Then he asked me if I had any query or question. I asked him to give me feedback about my interview. He said you need to work on your pronunciations and rest all is great. I thanked him and left.

A week later, results were declared, and fortunately, I reserved my seat in TCS. Then I attended Digital interview as well but it went really bad as they were asking questions from dynamic programming and Data structures etc. But, I was not selected in TCS Digital but was selected in TCS Ninja.

*Note: This is previous TCS NQT interview experience of 2021.
