Why you should focus on Arithmetic:

• High Scoring: Concept-based and formula-driven.
• Repeatable Patterns: Many questions follow a standard logical pattern.
• Foundation for DI: Data Interpretation often involves arithmetic calculations.
• Direct Impact on Cut-off: Accuracy here can make or break your selection chances.

Below is a topic-wise compilation of sample questions. The full set of 100+ questions with solutions is available in the downloadable PDF.

Question 1: A vessel contains 200 litres mixture of water and milk mixed in the ratio of 4:1 respectively. 70 litres of mixture is added which contains water and milk in the ratio of 2:5 respectively. Find the difference in the amount of water and milk present in the vessel finally after adding 70 litres of mixture to the vessel. 

A) 90 litres 

B) 100 litres 

C) 60 litres 

D) 80 litres 

E) 70 litres 

Question 2: Mixture A of milk and water contains 60% milk. If another mixture B of 84 litres containing milk and water in the ratio of 7:5, respectively is poured in mixture A such that the quantity of milk in the resultant mixture becomes 97 litres, then find the quantity of mixture A initially. 

A) 80 litres 

B) 90 litres 

C) 70 litres 

D) 100 litres 

E) None of these 

Question 3: A mixture of milk and water contains 40% water. ‘x’ litres of water is added to the mixture, then the quantity of milk becomes at least 22 litres more than water in the resultant mixture. If quantity of water in the mixture initially was 74 litres, then what can be the possible value of ‘x’? 

A) 16 

B) 14

C) 17 

D) 20 

E) 18

Question 4: The ratio of water and milk in a container is 2:9, respectively. 22 litres of mixture is taken out from the container and 10 litres of water is added to mixture. Again, 25% of mixture is taken out such that 57 litres of mixture is left in the container. Find the amount of water present initially. 

A) 18 litres 

B) 20 litres 

C) 16 litres 

D) 12 litres 

E) 15 litres

Question 5: 560 litres of a mixture contains milk and water in the ratio of 4:3, respectively. After addition of some amount of water to it, the ratio of milk to water in resultant mixture becomes 1:1, respectively. Find the amount of water added to mixture. 

A) 80 litres 

B) 60 litres 

C) 40 litres 

D) 20 litres 

E) None of these

Strategy to Prepare for Arithmetic for NIACL AO 2025

Step 1: Learn Concepts & Formulas

Before diving into questions, make sure you have a formula sheet ready for quick revision.
Example:

• Profit % = (Profit / Cost Price) × 100
  
• SI = (P × R × T) / 100
  
• CI = P × (1 + R/100)ⁿ – P
  
• Time & Work Formula: Work = Time × Rate
  

Step 2: Practice Topic-Wise

Don’t mix topics in the beginning. Focus on one concept, then move to the next.

Step 3: Solve Previous Year Papers

Solve the previous year’s paper to get an idea of the type of questions asked in the examination.

Step 4: Improve Calculation Speed

Use Vedic Maths tricks, approximation, and mental math to save precious seconds.

Step 5: Attempt Mock Tests

Simulate exam conditions to build time management skills.
