Given below are two statements : Statement (I) : Rajasthan gets rainfall from the Monsoon of Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea. Statement (II) : Bay of Bengal Monsoon pass through the Rajasthan without giving much rainfall to it because there is no proper obstruction available in the passage of it. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

2. BBoth Statement (I) and Statement (II) are correct.
3. CBoth Statement (I) and Statement (II) are incorrect.
4. DStatement (I) is correct but Statement (II) is incorrect.
Answer (D)
Rajasthan does receive rain from both the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea branches (Statement I correct), but the Bay of Bengal branch weakens by the time it reaches Rajasthan and the Aravalli range lies parallel (not perpendicular) so it fails to obstruct the Arabian Sea winds — meaning Statement II's claim of 'no obstruction at all' is faulty, hence II is incorrect.

A candidate who gets 20% marks fails by 15 marks but another candidate who gets 42% marks gets 12% more than the passing marks. What is the passing mark ?
1. A33
2. B30
3. C45
4. D40
Answer (C)
Let total = T. 20% fails by 15 ⇒ 0.20T = pass−15; 42% is 12% (of total) above pass ⇒ 0.42T = pass+0.12T ⇒ pass = 0.30T. Solving 0.20T = 0.30T−15 gives T=150, so pass = 0.30×150 = 45.
