A merchant can place 8 large boxes or 10 small boxes into a carton for shipping. In one shipment, he sent a total of 96 boxes. If there are more large boxes than small boxes, how many cartons did he ship?
Using common sense, you can answer this correctly. If he sent more of large boxes and 8 large boxes can be placed in a carton. If he sent 96 boxes, the number of boxes he sent will be lesser than 96 ÷ 8 = 12. The only option given that is less that 12 is 11

However, analysts are positive on the stock now. “We have seen a huge downside movement in the stock due to the central electricity regulatory commission’s (CERC) order that seems to be negative from 2014-15 onwards but we cannot take a linear negative view on the stock and further downside movement on the stock is unlikely.
