Explanation:
Question (1-5)
$ 5 G A H 8 # 3 U S 9 Ω W 7 E J Ψ R % Q 1 L 2 I N ¥ 4 © 6 O B
1). Answer: a)
Let drop the all the symbols in the arrangement,
5 G A H 8 3 U S 9 W 7 E J R Q 1 L 2 I N 4 6 O B
Then, 13th element from the right end is ‘E’
2). Answer: c)
38S    ΩUE            R7L    ?
Hence, the answer is ‘¥ 1 B’
3). Answer: d)
Fourth to the right of the nineteenth element from the left end i.e. 19 + 4 = 23rd element from the left end = ‘2’
4). Answer: a)
$ 5 G A H 8 # 3 U S 9 Ω W 7 E J Ψ R % Q 1 L 2 I N ¥ 4 © 6 O B
There is only one such a vowel.
5). Answer: c)
$ 5 G A H 8 # 3 U S 9 Ω W 7 E J Ψ R % Q 1 L 2 I N ¥ 4 © 6 O B
There are two such a numbers.
Question (6-8):
457Â Â Â Â 743Â Â Â Â 614Â Â Â Â 298Â Â Â Â 329
6). Answer: d)
Interchanging the first and third digits of the each numbers we get,
754Â Â Â Â 347Â Â Â Â 416Â Â Â Â 892Â Â Â Â 923
∴ the third highest number is ‘754’.
Hence, the corresponding number is 457.
7). Answer: a)
Ascending order of the digits,
457Â Â Â Â 347Â Â Â Â 146Â Â Â Â 289Â Â Â Â 239
The highest number is, 457
The second lowest number is 289
Hence, required sum = 5 + 8 = 13
8). Answer: c)
Interchanging the second and third digits of each numbers, we get
475Â Â Â Â 734Â Â Â Â 641Â Â Â Â 289Â Â Â Â 392
∴ the second highest number is, 641
Hence, the corresponding number is 614
