Answers: 

Direction (Q. 1-5):

  1. Answer: a

4, 17, 62, ?, 1894, 13267

4 × 3 + 5 = 17

17 × 4 – 6 = 62

62 × 5 + 7 =317

317 × 6 – 8 = 1894

1894 × 7 + 9 = 13267

Hence, 317 will come in the place of question mark.

  1. Answer: c

6, 8, ?, 22, 36, 58

6 + 8 = 14

8 + 14 = 22

14 + 22 = 36

22 + 36 = 58

Hence, 14 will come in the place of question mark.

  1. Answer: e

0.25, 1, 2.25 , ?, 6.25, 9, 12.25

0.5^2= 0.25

1^2 = 1

1.5^2 = 2.25

2^2 = 4

2.5^2 =6.25

3^2 = 9

3.5^2 = 12.25

Hence, 4 will come in the place of question mark.

(Or)

The difference of difference is 0.5

  1. Answer: b

56, 67, 100 , ?, 232, 331

56 + 11 = 67

67 + 33 = 100

100 + 55 = 155

155 + 77 = 232

232 + 99 = 331

Hence, 155 will come in the place of question mark.

  1. Answer is: b

63, 352, 608 , ?, 1029, 1198

63 + 289 = 352

352 + 256 = 608

608 + 225 = 833

833 + 196 = 1029

1029 + 169 = 1198

Hence, 833 will come in the place of question mark.

Directions(Q. 6 – 10) :

  1. Answer is: e

6399 × (13 / 8) + 353 ÷ ? = 10444

Or, 6400 ×(13 / 8) + (353 / ?) ≈ 10444

Or, 800 × 13 + (353 / ?) ≈ 10444

Or, (353 / ?) = 10444 – 10400 ≈ 44

Or, ? = 353 / 44 = 8.022 ≈ 8

  1. Answer is: a

? = √625 ×14 + √400 × 16

≈ 25 × 14 + 20 × 16 = 350 + 320 = 670

8.Answer is: e

? = 8460 ÷ 12 – 24 × (100 / 5)

= 705 – 24 × 20 = 705 – 480 = 225

  1. Answer is: b

? = [(15 × 680) / 100] + [(20 × 220) / 100]

= 102 + 44 ≈ 146 ≈ 145

10).Answer is: a

1441 ÷ ? + 149.98 × 14.99

= 3006 – 254.91

Or, 1441 / ? = 2751 – 150 × 15

= 2750 – 2250 = 500

?= 1440 / 500 = 2.88 = 3

  1. Answer: b

Let’s assume that the required time = T years

Hence in 2nd case, (6336 – 4800) = (4800’8’T)/100

=> T = (1536’100)/(4800’8)

=> T = 4 years

Let’s suppose that the principal amount be Rs P in 1St case.

Hence, P + (P'((5’4)/100)) = 7200

=> 1.2P = 7200

=> P = Rs 6000

  1. Answer: c

Let speeds of Kranthi, Shakthi and Bhakthi be denoted by k, s and b respectively.

It is given that Kranthi beats Shakthi by 10m, this means that while Kranthi has travelled 100m, Shakthi has travelled only (100-10) = 90m or 90%.

=> s X t’=0.9 X k X t’

=> s=0.9 X k    …(1)

It is also given that Shakthi beats Bhakthi by 5 secs, this means that:

=> s X t=b X (t+5)=100   …(2)

Also, it is given that: k=2b ..(3)

Using (3) in (1), we get

=> s=0.9 X 2b=1.8b ..(4)

Using (4) in (2), we get

=> 1.8bt=bt+5b =>0.8bt=5b

=> t = 5b/0.8b = 6.25s.

Using this result in (2), we get s = 100/t = 100/6.25 = 16 m/s

Using this result in (1), we get k = sl(0.9) = 16/(0.9) = 17.78 m/s

  1. Answer: c

The favourable cases {(1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6), (4, 5), (4, 6), (5, 6) }.

Total number of cases = 36

Required probability = 15/36 = 5/12.

  1. Answer: a

Let Shashi and Tinu’s current ages be ‘x’ and ‘y’ years respectively.

Ages z years ago: ‘x – z’ and ‘y – z’

x – z = (1/7) (y – z)

=>7x-7z=y – z

=> 7x – y = 6z  —-(i)

Ages in z years from now: ‘x + z’ and ‘y + z’

3(x + z) = y + z

=> 3x + 3z = y + z

=> y – 3x = 2z

=> 3y – 9x = 6z   …(ii)

Equating (ii) and (i):

=> 7x – y = 3y – 9x

=> 16x = 4y

=> y/x = 4/1

  1. Answer: b

Let the cost price of one horse and one cow be Rs H and Rs C respectively.

According to the question; 2H + 3C = 72000… (1)

According to the question; 2(1.15H) + 3(0.95C) = 80000

=> 2.3H + 2.85C = 80000… (2)

(2) – (1) gives 0.311- 0.15C = 8000

=> H – 0.5C = 80000/3 … (3)

Solving (1) and (3), we get H = 29000 and C = 4667

H + C = 33667

Direction (Q. 16-20):

  1. Answer: b

(36.2 + 58.8 + 52.6 + 54.4)*1000/4

= 202000/4

= 50500

  1. Answer: a

= (60 × 62% + 40 × 78%)/(63 × 75% + 60.4 × 73%) × 100

= (3720 + 3120)/(4725 + 4409) × 100

= 6840 / 9134 × 100

= 74.88%

= 75%

  1. Answer: c

= (50 × 25% + 58.8 × 22%+ 54.4 × 22%)*1000/3

= (12500 + 12936 + 11968)/3

= 37404/3

= 12468

  1. Answer: e

(40 × 22% + 63 × 25 %) : (36.2 × 38% + 58.8 × 22%)

= 24550 : 26692

  1. Answer: d

= (52.6 × 40% + 54.4 × 22%)/(50 × 25% + 36.2 × 38%) × 100

= (2104 + 1196.8)/ (1250 + 1375.6) × 100

= 3300/2625 × 100

= 125.71

= 125%

Required answer = 125 – 100

= 25% more
