Q. In a project involving tasks A, B, C, and D, if A and B can be done simultaneously but must be completed before C, and D can be done at any time, which of the following is a correct sequence?
A.A, B, C, D
B.C, A, B, D
C.D, A, B, C
D.B, A, C, D
Solution
The sequence A, B, C, D is valid as A and B can be done simultaneously before C.
Q. In a project involving tasks A, B, C, and D, if task D can only start after task B is completed, which of the following is a possible order of tasks?
A.A, D, B, C
B.B, A, C, D
C.C, B, A, D
D.D, A, B, C
Solution
The order B, A, C, D is valid as D starts after B.
Q. In a project timeline, if Task 1 must be completed before Task 2, and Task 3 can start only after Task 2, which of the following sequences is valid?
A.Task 1, Task 3, Task 2
B.Task 2, Task 1, Task 3
C.Task 1, Task 2, Task 3
D.Task 3, Task 1, Task 2
Solution
The sequence Task 1, Task 2, Task 3 is valid as it respects the order of completion.
Q. In a project with tasks P, Q, R, and S, if P must be completed before Q and R, and S can be done at any time, which of the following is a possible order of completion?
A.P, Q, R, S
B.R, P, Q, S
C.S, P, Q, R
D.Q, R, P, S
Solution
The order P, Q, R, S respects the dependency of P on Q and R.
Q. In a recent study, researchers found that students who engage in group study sessions perform better than those who study alone. Which of the following can be inferred from this study?
A.Group study is the only effective way to learn.
B.Studying alone is less effective than group study.
C.All students prefer group study over studying alone.
D.Group study sessions are always more enjoyable.
Solution
The study indicates a comparison between group study and studying alone, suggesting that group study is more effective.
Correct Answer: B — Studying alone is less effective than group study.
Q. In a recent study, researchers found that students who study in groups perform better than those who study alone. Which of the following can be inferred from this study?
A.Group study is always more effective than individual study.
B.Students who study alone are less intelligent.
C.Collaboration enhances learning outcomes.
D.All students prefer group study over individual study.
Solution
The study indicates that collaboration enhances learning outcomes, but it does not claim that group study is always better or that students who study alone are less intelligent.
Correct Answer: C — Collaboration enhances learning outcomes.
Q. In a scenario where resources are limited, which strategy is most effective for maximizing output?
A.Allocating resources equally across all departments.
B.Prioritizing departments based on their contribution to overall goals.
C.Investing heavily in one department to boost its performance.
D.Reducing resources in underperforming departments without analysis.
Solution
Prioritizing departments based on their contribution to overall goals ensures that resources are allocated where they can generate the most value, making option 1 the best strategy.
Correct Answer: B — Prioritizing departments based on their contribution to overall goals.
Q. In a scenario where set B is defined as {x | x is a natural number and x < 10}, which of the following elements would violate the constraints of set B?
A.5
B.10
C.0
D.7
Solution
The element 10 violates the constraint of being less than 10, thus it cannot be included in set B.
Q. In a scheduling scenario, if task B cannot start until task A is finished, and task C cannot start until task B is finished, which of the following is a valid conclusion?
A.A must finish before C
B.B can start before A
C.C can start before B
D.A can start after C
Solution
A must finish before C can start, making the conclusion valid.
Q. In a scheduling set involving five friends, A, B, C, D, and E, if A cannot sit next to B, and C must sit between D and E, which of the following arrangements is valid?
A.A, C, D, E, B
B.B, A, C, E, D
C.D, C, E, A, B
D.C, D, A, B, E
Solution
The arrangement A, C, D, E, B satisfies the conditions as A is not next to B and C is between D and E.
Q. In a scheduling set involving five tasks A, B, C, D, and E, if task A must be completed before task B, and task C must be completed before task D, which of the following is a valid sequence?
A.A, B, C, D, E
B.C, D, A, B, E
C.B, A, D, C, E
D.E, A, C, D, B
Solution
The sequence A, B, C, D, E respects the constraints that A is before B and C is before D.
Q. In a scheduling set involving four tasks A, B, C, and D, if task A must be completed before task B, and task C cannot start until task D is finished, which of the following sequences is valid?
A.A, B, C, D
B.D, C, A, B
C.B, A, D, C
D.C, D, A, B
Solution
The only valid sequence is D, C, A, B, as it respects the constraints given.
