Question 1: In the following set of numbers if ‘1’ is added to the last digit of and then the order of digits is reversed ,which of the following will be the fourth if arranged in the ascending order 567 284 696 865 738

a) 567

b) 284

c) 696

d) 865

e) 738

1) Answer (A)

Solution:

Numbers : 567 284 696 865 738

If ‘1’ is added to the last digit, then numbers : 568 , 285 , 697 , 866 , 739

Now, order of digits is reversed, = 865 , 582 , 796 , 668 , 937

After arranging in ascending order = 582 , 668 , 796 , 865 , 937

Thus, 4th from left = $865\equiv567$

=> Ans – (A)

Question 2: How many such pairs of letters are there in the word PHYSICAL each of which has as many letters between them in the word as apperar in the English alphabets.

a) None

b) One

c) Two

d) Three

e) More than three

2) Answer (C)

Solution:

Word – ‘PHYSICAL’

There are 2 pairs of letters which have as many letters between them in the word as they have between them in the English alphabetical series

= (P,S) , (I,L)

=> Ans – (C)

Question 3: Four of the following are like in certain way on the basis of their positions in English alphabets and so form a group.which of the following does not belong to that group ?

a) HJG

b) PQN

c) DEB

d) TUR

e) KLI

3) Answer (A)

Solution:

(A) : H (+2 letters) = J (-3 letters) = G

(B) : P (+1 letter) = Q (-3 letters) = N

(C) : D (+1 letter) = E (-3 letters) = B

(D) : T (+1 letter) = U (-3 letters) = R

(E) : K (+1 letter) = L (-3 letters) = I

=> Ans – (A)

Question 4: What should come next in the following letter series ?
AN CQ ET GW ?

a) JZ

b) IZ

c) IY

d) KA

e) LZ

4) Answer (B)

Solution:

Series : AN CQ ET GW ?

The pattern followed in each letter of the terms is :

1st letter : A (+2 letters) = C (+2 letters) = E (+2 letters) = G (+2 letters) = I

2nd letter : N (+3 letters) = Q (+3 letters) = T (+3 letters) = W (+3 letters) = Z

Thus, missing term = IZ

=> Ans – (B)

Question 5: Four of the following five are alike in a certain way (based on their positions of alphabets in the English alphabetical series) and hence form a group. Which is the one that does not belong to that group?

a) BFD

b) EIH

c) KOM

d) TXV

e) LPN

5) Answer (B)

Solution:

BCDEF = BFD (1st -5th-3rd)

KLMNO = KOM(1st -5th-3rd)

TUVWX = TXV (1st -5th-3rd)

LMNOP = LPN(1st -5th-3rd)

EFGHI = it should be EIG but it is given as EIH and hence this is the odd one out

Question 6: The sum of the squares of two odd numbers is 11570. The square of the smaller number is 5329. What is the other number?

a) 73

b) 75

c) 78

d) 79

e) 80

6) Answer (D)

Solution:

let the two numbers be a and b , where b is the smaller number

$(a)^2$ + $(b)^2$ = 11570

$(a)^2$ + 5329 = 11570

$(a)^2$ = 6241 = 79 x 79

a = 79

Hence option D is correct

Question 7: If the digits in the number 79246358 are arranged in descending order from left to right, what will be the difference between the digits which are third from the right and second from the left in the new arrangement?

c) 3

d) 4

e) 5

7) Answer (D)

Solution:

Number – ‘79246358’

If the digits are arranged in descending order from left to right, new number = 98765432

Difference between the digits which are third from the right and second from the left = $8-4=4$

The pattern followed is that whole numbers are written in increasing order and at the end ‘9’ is appended.

Eg :- 0 9 , 01 9 , 012 9 , 0123 9 , 01234 9 , 012345 9

Thus, next number after 5 will be = 6

=> Ans – (B)
