Choose the most appropriate option for the following question.

There were twelve dozens of chocolates with a shopkeeper. Ten chocolates were distributed by the shopkeeper to the children of his colony. The shopkeeper then added two more dozens of chocolates in his stock. If the shopkeeper divided the total chocolates equally in two different packets, then how many chocolates were there in each packet?

पर्याय

  • 152

  • 89

  • 158

  • 79

MCQ

उत्तर

79

Explanation:

Total chocolates before distributing to children = 12 × 12 = 144

10 chocolates were given to children, then number of chocolates left = 144 - 10 = 134

However, two more dozens of chocolates were added, then chocolates = 134 + 24 = 158

Number of chocolates per packet = `158/2 = 79`

Given below is a passage followed by a statement about that passage. You must select one of the following answers:
Mediators recognize that the law is generally in place to uphold mediator - client confidentiality, however, there are situations that may occur where the mediator is under obligation to break that confidence. This obligation can vary depending upon where the mediator is practicing and it may occur as a result of their employment contract or of the law. Where such an issue does occur, the mediator is expected to firstly try and discuss the presenting issue with their client; however, in situations where the factors under consideration are particularly urgent, it is accepted that this cannot always be the case.

Legitimate breaches of confidentiality relate to circumstances where the information the client has shared relates to anti-national activities; information of this nature must be reported. There are other circumstances where breaching confidentiality may be considered legitimate, for example, in the case of serious crime or suspected child abuse. Mediation service providers and mediators practicing independently have their own boundaries but must agree with this contractually with their client at the outset of the client - counsel relationship.

If a mediator breaches his client's confidence about a serious issue without first informing their client of their intentions, they are breaking the law.
