Information
Considering the alarming importance of CSAT in UPSC CSE Prelims exam and with enormous requests we received recently, InsightsIAS has started Daily CSAT Test to ensure students practice CSAT Questions on a daily basis. Regular Practice would help one overcome the fear of CSAT too.
We are naming this initiative as Insta– DART – Daily Aptitude and Reasoning Test. We hope you will be able to use DART to hit bull’s eye in CSAT paper and comfortably score 100+ even in the most difficult question paper that UPSC can give you in CSP-2021. Your peace of mind after every step of this exam is very important for us.
Looking forward to your enthusiastic participation (both in sending us questions and solving them on daily basis on this portal).
Wish you all the best ! 🙂

Question 1 of 5
1. Question
Two persons A and B start simultaneously from two places c km apart and walk in the same direction. If A travels at the rate of p km/h and B travels at the rate of q km/h, then A has travelled before he overtakes B a distance of
Correct
Ans: b
Let A and B will meet after t h at point E.
Distance travelled by A = pt h
[because, distance = speed * time]
and distance travelled by B = qt h
According to the question,
pt = qt +C ⇒ pt – qt = c
t(p-q) = c
t=(c/p-q) …………………………………………………………(1)
∴Distance travelled by A = pt = (pc/(p-q)) km [from Eq.(1)]

Question 2 of 5
2. Question
As per agreement with a bank, a businessman to refund a loan in some equal instalments without interest. After paying 18 instalments, he found that 60% of his loan was refunded. How many instalments were there in the agreement?
Correct
Ans: c
In this question, the loan is refunded with equal installment and without interest. Initially the man had to pay x installations. Now, after paying 18 installments, 60 % of loan iş refunded .
60 % of x = 18 = 60/100* X= 18
18 x 100/60 = 30
There were 30 installations in the agreement .

Question 3 of 5
3. Question
Consider the following in respect of the numbers , √2, 3 √3 and 6 √6
3. In a five digit number, last digit is three times the first one, 3rd digit is 3 less than the second,4th digit is 4 more than the second one . Find the number.
Correct
Ans. A
We are given a 5 digit number
Let first digit be ‘X’
then 5th digit is ‘3X’
let 2nd digit be ‘Y’
then 3rd digit is ‘Y – 3’
and 4th digit is ‘Y + 4’
then the no is ‘(X)(Y)(Y – 3)(Y + 4)(3X)’
from the above we can say 3X <= 9
so X<=3 and any of the digit in the number is <= 9Also Y–3 ≥ 0 and Y+4 ≤ 9
Y ≥ 3 and Y ≤ 5 i.e. Y = 3,4 or 5
for x = 1, all the conditions won’t be satisfied.For x = 2,
Let Y = 5
The number is 25296Short trick
Since the relation between the digits are given, let us go through the option and see if any one of them satisfies the condition.
Option 1: 25296
6 = 3 × 2, 2 = 5 – 3, 9 = 5 + 4
Since all the conditions are satisfied, option 1 is the solution.

Question 4 of 5
4. Question
What is the harmonic mean of 10, 20, 25, 40 and 50?
Correct
Ans: d
Let the numbers be a1 = 10, a2 = 20, a3=25, a4 = 40 and a5 = 50
∴Harmonic mean = (Number of observations)/[(1/a1)+(1/a2)+(1/a3)+(1/a4)+(1/a5)]

Question 5 of 5
5. Question
The digit in the unit’s place of the resulting number of the expression (234)100 + (234)101, is
Correct
Ans: d
We have, (234)100+ (234)101 (234)0= 235(234)100
We know that square of any number having 4 at unit place is a number in which 6 at unit place. Any exponent of a number 6 at unit place is always 6 is at unit place.
Because (235)(…..6)=…30
Resulting number have 0 at unit place.
