Data Sufficiency is a technique for evaluating if the information provided is adequate to respond to the query. Questions about data sufficiency may involve coding-decoding, blood relations, direction sense tests, etc. difficulties. A calendar is a well-ordered list of days, weeks, and months in a specific period of time. Finding the date, the month, the week, and other information from various statements in the exam is one of the most crucial topics in the government sector. In order to reach the right conclusion, the data sufficiency calendar question provided two statements, 1 and 2. with an appropriate check of the assertion. The data sufficiency calendars-based question requires us to first carefully read both statements, determine whether the first statement is enough to complete an answer, if not, then examine the second statement, and note what the question is actually asking. There may be instances where we need to use both statements to provide the requested response.

  1. Statement I alone is sufficient, but statement II alone is not sufficient
  2. Statement II alone is sufficient, but statement I alone is not sufficient
  3. Data in both the statements together are not sufficient,
  4. Both statement I and statement II together are needed,

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : Both statement I and statement II together are needed,

Clock and Calendar Question 1 Detailed Solution

According to the question,

Statement I: Buses for Delhi leave after every 30 minutes, until 11 pm.

Here, no information regarding last bus timing from Noida is given, therefore statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Statement II: 20 minutes ago, a bus has left for Delhi.

Here, last bus timing is 6:40 pm (7:00 pm - 20 min) for Delhi but frequency of the bus cannot be determined, therefore statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Combining statement I and II: Buses for Delhi leave after every 30 minutes, until 11 pm. 20 minutes ago, a bus has left for Delhi.

Last bus timing from Noida was 6:40 pm and as buses leave after every 30 minute. Thus the next bus would be at 7:10 pm (6:40 pm + 30 min).

 Both statement I and statement II together are needed to answer the question.

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

Clock and Calendar Question 2:

"In the below given question, a few statements have been given. Analyse the given statements and answer whether the data given in the statements are sufficient to answer the question or not.

I. Buses for Ramnagar leave after every 30 minutes, till 10 p.m.
II. Fifteen minutes ago, one bus has left for Ramnagar.
It is 8:00 p.m., when can Hemant get ne×t bus for Ramnagar from Dhanpur?"

  1. the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question
  2. if the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question
  3. if the data even in both the statement together are not sufficient to answer the question
  4. if the data in both the statements together are needed

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : if the data in both the statements together are needed

Clock and Calendar Question 2 Detailed Solution

According to the question,

Statement I: Buses for Ramnagar leave after every 30 minutes, till 10 p.m.

Here, no information regarding last bus timing from Ramnagar is given, therefore statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Statement II: Fifteen minutes ago, one bus has left for Ramnagar.

Here, last bus timing is 7:45 pm (8:00 pm - 15 min) for Ramnagar but frequency of the bus cannot be determined, therefore statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Combining statement I and II: Buses for Ramnagar leave after every 30 minutes, till 10 p.m. Fifteen minutes ago, one bus has left for Ramnagar.

Last bus timing from Ramnagar was 7:45 pm and as buses leave after every 30 minute. Thus the ne×t bus would be at 8:45 pm (6:40 pm + 30 min). It is mentioned that buses leave till 10:00 pm, therefore Hemant can get ne×t bus for Ramnagar from Dhanpur.

 Both statement I and statement II together are needed to answer the question.

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

  2. if the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question
  3. if the data even in both the statement together are not suffecient to answer the question
  4. if the data in both the statements together are needed

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : if the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question

Clock and Calendar Question 3 Detailed Solution

According to the given question, we need to find the day of the 14th of the given month.

Statement 1: The last day of the month is a Wednesday.

If the last day is Wednesday we are not able to find a day on the 14th of that month because we don't know whether the month is of 28 days or 29 days or 30 days or 31 days.

Therefore, Statement-1 alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Statement 2: The third Saturday of the month was seventeenth.

If the 17th day of the given month is Saturday then we can easily find the 14th day by subtracting 3 odd days from Saturday i.e., (6 - 3) = 3. means Wednesday.

Therefore, Statement-2 alone is sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

Additional InformationHere we use odd days as: Sunday = 0 , Monday = 1, Tuesday = 2, Wednesday = 3, Thursday = 4, Friday = 5, and Saturday = 6.  

Clock and Calendar Question 4:

If the 14th September of an year is a Tuesday, then which day of the week will the 17th October of the same year be?

  1. Thursday
  2. Saturday
  3. Sunday
  4. Monday

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : Sunday

Clock and Calendar Question 4 Detailed Solution

From 14th September to 17th October:

Days left in September:

September has 30 days, so days remaining after the 14th = 30 - 14 = 16 days.

Days in October before the 17th:

Days = 17 days.

Total days between the two dates:

Total = 16 (September) + 17 (October) = 33 days.

Calculate the day of the week:

33 days modulo 7 gives us the remainder when divided by 7:

33 ÷ 7 = 5

32 ÷ 7 = 4 remainders 5

Starting from Tuesday (14th September):

Counting 5 days from Tuesday:

Tuesday → Wednesday (1) → Thursday (2) → Friday (3) → Saturday (4) Sunday(5)

Thus, 17th October will be a Sunday.

Hence the correct answer is, Option(3)

Clock and Calendar Question 5:

Which of the following is a leap year?

  1. 1600
  2. 2000
  3. 2400
  4. All options are correct

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : All options are correct

Clock and Calendar Question 5 Detailed Solution

To determine if a particular year is a leap year, we can follow these rules:

  1. A year is a leap year if it is divisible by 4.
  2. However, if the year is divisible by 100, it is not a leap year, unless:
  3. The year is also divisible by 400, in which case it is a leap year.

Now, let's check each option,

1) 1600: It is a leap year because it is divisible by 400.

2) 2000It is a leap year because it is divisible by 400.

3) 2400: It is a leap year because it is divisible by 400.

Hence, the correct answer is "All options are correct".

On which date is Evanshu’s birthday.

By using Statement 1:

Evanshu’s birthday is on the Republic Day of a country.

From this we don't know republic day of which country so, we can not find the birth date of Evanshu using statement 2 alone.

By using Statement 2:

The country’s national flag is a tri-colour flag with an Ashoka Chakra in its centre.

So, we can not find the birth date of Evanshu using statement 2 alone.

Thus statement I and II together:

We know that the national flag of India is a tri-colour flag with an Ashoka Chakra in its centre and the Republic Day in India, i.e., on 26th January.

So, we can say that Evanshu's birthday is on 26thJanuary.

Hence, Both statements 1 and 2 are sufficient together​.

Additional InformationThe National Flag of India (Hindi: Tiraṅgā) is a horizontal rectangular tri-colour of India saffron, white and India green; with the Ashoka Chakra, a 24-spoke wheel, in navy blue at its centre.

1. Only statement 1 is sufficient but statement 2 is not sufficient. → False

Statement 1: On the 7th day of a month.

From statement 1, we cannot find when is Yuvi's wedding anniversary.

2. Both statement 1 and statement 2 are sufficient independently. → False

As statement 1 is not sufficient independently.

3. ​Only statement 2 is sufficient but statement 1 is not sufficient. → False

Statement 2: The month has 29 days only in a leap year.

Only February has 29 days in a leap year. So, from this statement, it is clear that Yuvi's wedding anniversary is in the month of February, but the date of Yuvi's wedding anniversary cannot be stated from this statement.

So, only statement 2 is not sufficient.

4. Both statement 1 and statement 2 are sufficient together.

Statements:

1: On the 7th day of a month.

2. The month has 29 days only in a leap year.

From 1 we know the date and from 2, we know the month. So, Yuvi's wedding anniversary is on the 7th of February.

Hence, ‘Both statement 1 and statement 2 are sufficient together’ is the correct answer.
